Trigun Thanksgiving By: Rachia

Disclaimer: Trigun and all related characters unfortunately do not belong to me. Neither does Miroku Hotoshi (she belongs to (duh) Miroku). The only things I own are Rachia Maiya and the seemingly non-existent plot.

A/N: Although the cast of Trigun ends up at my house in the same way as Vash does in PyroSprite64's and my story Road Trip, the two stories aren't connected in any way, shape, or form. I'm just too lazy to come up with something else. I also apologize for any OOC-ness. This is the first Trigun fic I've ever written independently, and it's also the only Trigun fic I've ever written with anyone but Vash in it.

Quick Non-Trigun Character overview:

Name: Rachia Maiya Age: 15 Hair: Short and Bright red Eyes: Turquoise-Blue Info: She's a tad on the ditzy side and doesn't think things through all the way. Tends to come up with plans that get her and her best friend, Miroku, into trouble.

Name: Miroku Hotoshi Age: 15 Hair: Long, black, and usually braided. Eyes: Green Info: She has a LOT more common sense than Rachia, and usually ends up having to get them out of trouble when one of Rachia's insane schemes backfire. She also has a scary temper and can tend to be a bit on the sadistic side at times.

Prologue: Thanksgiving. (Prologue narration told from Rachia's POV)

Ah, Thanksgiving. A time to be thankful for all that you have in your life. But more importantly, Thanksgiving is a time to have an obscenely large meal with family and friends.

This is my Thanksgiving Story.

Usually on Thanksgiving, my parents haul me off to my grandparents' house for dinner. This year, however, they decided to leave me at home. I honestly have no idea why, though Miroku tells it it's probably because last year I tried to light the turkey on fire. *shifty eyes* I SWEAR that wasn't me. *shifty eyes again* Honest!

Anyway, like I said, this year, I have to fend for myself on Thanksgiving. It's just gonna be my three cats, Isis, Fritz, and Thor, my best friend, Miroku Hotoshi, and me. Well, it started OFF as just the 5 of us.

But then, things got complicated.
