So this is where he stays. A run down building with huge hallways, very
clever. Kelly had been traveling for 3 days since she left Vash at the
Saloon. I hope he didn't fallow me. I never should have asked him about
Knives. Tears filled her eyes as played over the words he said. 'No! Your
different from Knives!' What did he mean? I am just as evil. I haven't even
met him yet. 'Ahh, so Kelly is your last name, now I remember.' What did he
mean, 'now I remember'?
For some reason all this seemed very familiar. Vash seemed as if she knew
him for years. Like he never changed since then. He was the same man, still
caring. I know I know you from before. But I can't remember. When was it?
Still pondering she continued to walk.
As she entered a huge hallway, she knew something was wrong. She cocked her
gun ready for whatever it was that was coming. She started to breath heavy,
and her heart began to beat faster and faster. What ever you are. Show
yourself! She spoke in her mind, as if they could hear her. She shot at the
darkness in the room. Yes, it was dark, but in the areas she couldn't see.
Three humanoid figures fall to the floor.
"What fools." She reloaded her gun and put in back beside her.
Someone began to clap. "Bravo, I must say. The quickest and most accurate
shooting I have seen, other then my brother of course."
"So your Knives."
He smiled, "Yes, Millions Knives. I see you have heard of me?"
"Vash told me about you." His eyes narrowed, "Legato sent me here."
"I see." He grew a grin, "Isn't Legato dead?"
"Yes, but somehow he was talking to me in my mind."
"Let me show you around."
They walked into an area that was clearly labeled restricted. She looked
around to see the "sleeping people".
"I remember all of this." She said, "It is as if I was there. The 'sleeping
people'."
Knives looked at her with shock. Was she that little girl? She seemed
familiar. Knives remembered a little girl that loved Vash. But even so she
did, the little girl only shared her deepest secrets with Knives.
"One day, I will be big." "Yes," Knives smiled, "So will I." "Do you think we will ever find the Eden?" The little girl looked as if her hopes were crushed. "I know that we will never find the Eden," Knives scooted closer to her, "We together will make the Eden." "I hope so." She turned to Knives. "We will, and I promise it. You have my word." His kissed her on the cheek. "Trust me."
"Do you remember anything about a little boy?" He asked her, not expecting her to know anything of that nature. "A little...boy?" She pondered the question. She looked inside her mind, "I remember a boy. Two of them." She looked at Knives. She walked over to him. She raised her hand up and pushed her fingers threw his hair. "You, you where one of the little boys. You have to be. I remember the short uneven hair." "I am surprised. How can you remember that?" "I can remember some memories from my childhood, not everything is unclear. But all I remember is turning 10. After that.time is blurry up until 10 days ago." "Hmm.That is more then I expected you to remember." "My 'Father' wanted to put me to sleep. I think he succeeded in that, but I don't know how. I killed him after all." She smiled at the thought. "I remember the little girl. She was you." He looked into her eyes, "I feel in love with that little girl. She was my first kiss. The only one to show me what true love meant." Kelly looked in his eyes. She remembered, but never knew that Knives were this full-grown handsome man, "She jumped in front of me when that human was hurting me. She didn't care about herself, as long as I was safe. I want to return that to her." "I remember that." She looked away, "How?" "What do you mean?" He was worried she would see threw him, into his black heart, and leave him for his brother. "Why?" Kelly didn't know how to explain it, "I know everything about you. That is why Vash told me that I wasn't like you." Knives felt sadness for the first time in his life, "Please, I promised you the Eden. I couldn't make it without you, and now you are here. Please, trust me?" He grabbed Kelly's hands and held them. He lost her once and didn't want to take that chance. "Knives, I will trust you," She looked into his eyes. She was searching to see if he was being honest with her, but most of all, himself, "If you mess up, I will not forgive you. The moment you turn your back on me, I know you are one of them." He wasn't too sure what she meant about 'them'. "I promise."
"One day, I will be big." "Yes," Knives smiled, "So will I." "Do you think we will ever find the Eden?" The little girl looked as if her hopes were crushed. "I know that we will never find the Eden," Knives scooted closer to her, "We together will make the Eden." "I hope so." She turned to Knives. "We will, and I promise it. You have my word."
