Oh, God! All of those reviews! I am so happy! Thank you guys! It means
so much to me; all of you who write fanfiction as well surely will
understand me. Right? Oh and I am terribly sorry for those readers who were
confused with the last chapter "A Night at the Opera". People at the opera
were running away because Vash had Diablo eyes. Boo!
Please visit this wonderful Trigun site "Up in Smoke" and look at the screencaps of the episode # 12 Diablo. Scaaaaaary! Also there are some shots of Vash's arm transforming into the machine gun. http://www.bishounen.net/trigun/screen/ep12/index.html
And again I don't own anything, especially Trigun and Sailor Moon. But I am the rightful owner of this fanfiction and Vash's and Wolfwood's action figures! YESSSSS!
Thank you so much, Usa-chan and Aidenn-chan for all the support and editing.
Helen, Vash reminds you of your ex-boyfriend? ::faints:: And you let him go? Just like that? ::faints again::

Chapter 7 Aftermath.
Usagi was pounding Tuxedo Kamen's chest with her small fists. "How could you do this, Mamo-chan! I had it all under control, we have to go back!"
Caped warrior clutching his teeth transformed into his civil form and grabbed Usagi by her shoulders. " Usako, please, stop this, I understand that you want to help, but you can't transform, let Senshi take care of it!"
Usagi's voice turned into the high-pitch scream. "No, no, Mamo-chan! I was not going to fight him! Senshi will try to hurt him and he won't fight them back! I don't want him to get into more trouble then he already is because of me! Take me back!"
"For God's sake who are you talking about, Usako?"
"Vash!" Usagi fell on her knees. "It's all my fault! All because of me!"
****************
Vash felt terrible. He did it this time. Why everywhere he went trouble seemed just to fall onto his lap out of nowhere?
Haruka lifted his face by the chin. "Alright, Doll Face, what are hell are you? Cyborg? Droid? Youma? What a lovely present Setsuna dropped off in our care!"
Neptune pulled on Haruka's sleeve. "Keep away from him, you should've stayed in your senshi form, who knows what he will do to us!"
Vash met Haruka's stern gaze. "I wouldn't hurt anyone, I just wanted to protect Usagi!"
He let his head fall on his crossed arms. "Oh, God! Why me!"
Haruka snorted. "The question is: why us? Michiru and I have been staying away from the senshi business for months, we finally decided to have a peaceful time for ourselves and let the others to take care of the world's problems! How come we are stuck babysitting you!"
Michiru looked with worry at the police car passing by. "We will never be able to get out of here! Police is everywhere! I am sure somebody will remember that Vash came with us! We can't take him back in our car and we can't leave him here!"
Haruka stepped away from Vash and carefully observed her surroundings. "We have to find the others. Maybe Mamoru can take Vash home."
"After he almost killed him?" Michuru was so mad that she forgot that they've been hiding and raised her voice.
Vash's green eyes flushed with anger. "I wasn't trying to kill him! I was afraid that he will hurt Usagi like he hurt me in my dream with that blasted rose!"
"Rose!?" Both Michuru and Haruka yelled out and exchanged strange looks. "How do you know that he uses red roses as his weapons?"
"I don't know!" Vash clasped his head with his hands. "It wasn't red, it was black! And it hurt like hell!"
Haruka lightly patted his shoulder. "That's ok, I believe you. I know you wouldn't hurt anyone, but still you should've left that gun in the car."
Michuru intently stared at Vash. "Uh… Haruka? It's attached to his arm."
***************
"Minna!" Usagi on full speed ran past Mamoru. Rei was shocked to see Usagi's face covered in tears. She gave Mamoru a dirty look and got an angry stare in response.
"Rei, what did you do to him! Is he hurt?" Usagi tagged on Rei's dress and then turned her hopeful gaze to others.
"Uh… Who, Usagi?" Minako and Amy gave the blond a dumbfounded look.
Makoto came up to the crying girl and hugged her. "Are you ok, Usagi? You didn't get hurt did you?"
"No, no! I need to find him; I need to find Vash! Where is he!"
"We don't know! Outers got him! As soon as we transformed they made a run for him and snatched this guy away right under our noses!" Makoto slammed her fist into Mamoru's car. "Too bad I didn't get my hands on that loser!"
"You don't understand!" Usagi was hysterical.
"Usagi-chan!"
"Usako."
"Koneko." Haruka appeared out of nowhere. "It's about time you explained it to them. You can't hide disappearance of the Crystal any longer."
***********
"What do you mean you lost the Crystal!" Rei stuck her face in Usagi's.
"READ MY LIPS, REI: I LOST THE CRYSTAL! Are you happy now?" Frustrated Usagi blew her nose in the napkin.
Rei frowned. "You don't have to yell, Usagi-chan."
"Sorry."
Makoto lightly slapped Usagi's arm. "Next time you travel to the next dimension, make sure you take me with you! Are there any more cuties like Vash back in his world?"
"Woah, Mako-chan! You were about to hurt him pretty bad five minutes ago!" Minako winked at the brunette.
Amy took out her mini computer and came up to Haruka. "You think Vash will mind if I do a reading on him? It's just to be on a safe side."
Haruka slapped herself in the forehead. "Damn! I forgot! We need to get him out of here!"
**************
Vash and Usagi ran towards each other happily screaming and as soon as they both met they started jumping holding hands with goofy smiles on their faces.
Rei rolled her eyes at the sight "Oh, God, Usagi multiplies! The world is in the major disaster! I can't believe she was trying to hide from us her male reincarnation!"
Haruka looked in Mamoru's face trying to find any hints of jealousy and felt very disappointed when she found none. Mamoru was happy that he wasn't a center of Usagi's attention just for once.
Girls surrounded Vash and Minako boldly grabbed his arm. "So, which one is not real?"
Vash madly blushing tried to hide behind Usagi's back; for the first time in his long life he didn't know what to say to the cute girl.
The group agreed that Minako would ride with Haruka and Michiru posing as Usagi in case the police stop them. All the rest were stuffed into Mamoru's sports car.
Amy on the front seat was quickly typing on her mini-computer. Vash was stuck between Makoto and Rei. Usagi ended up sitting on Rei's lap and both girls were constantly fighting.
"Lay off the doughnuts, Usagi, will you? You weight a ton!"
"I do not, Rei, you are so mean! You are just jealous that I can eat all that and never gain a pound! Besides sweets always make me feel better!"
Vash was in the pure misery. With every left turn Makoto's leg pressed firmly against his and with every right turn Usagi leaned closer and provided him with the great view from the front of her low cut dress. Vash silently prayed: "Oh, God, please let me live through this ride without touching anything!" When he saw Usagi intently staring at his lips he wished for his immediate and painless death.
Vash sneaked a glance at Mamoru. Dark-haired man was having a quiet conversation with Amy completely ignoring his back seat passengers.
'I wouldn't do that in his place! How does he know that I am not checking out his lovely girlfriend?' Vash pouted. For some unknown reason he realized that Mamoru wouldn't care even if he knew. Vash remembered what Usagi told him about her destiny. He figured out that her destiny was with Mamoru and that young man was so sure of his future that he would never even dream of the possible discrepancies.
Outlaw sighed. Usagi's life really sucked. He was happy that he didn't know anything about his future. He never was fully attached to things or people or places. His only goal was to stop Knives and he didn't care what would happen afterwards. He liked having Meryl, Milly and Wolfwood around him, but close friendship had its disadvantages.
Usagi noticed his gloomy expression and gently touched his shoulder. "Are you ok?"
Vash nodded and tried to smile.
Usagi shivered. 'I wish I could wipe that smile off his face, it hurts so much to see him like that, what in the world I could do to make him feel better? I know nothing about him, but still can't stop worrying and feeling sad…'
"Stop it…" Usagi heard Vash quietly whisper.
Her emotions were so raw on her face that Vash felt uneasy. How can someone whom he barely knew care about him so much? He didn't deserve it. Her affection and concern were supposed to be directed to her friends and family. He was nobody; he didn't even belong to this dimension. That particular thought hurt the most.
