After reviving Nick and feeding the hyper children, Isabelle led them all outside into the garden. She was already worn out by the children, but she was getting used to their...oddities. Sitting in a lawn chair, she watched the children play.
Knives and Midvalley were making a village in the sandbox, one that she was sure would meet certain doom once the "spiders" were "done". Looking over to Vash, she saw him following after Meryl like a little puppy. "Meryl, I think he likes you..." Milly said as Meryl gave him a disgusted look. "Why won't you GO AWAY??" she yelled at him. Vash blinked. "'Cause i like you...and I /know/ you like me..." Meryl hit him on the head suddenly. Isabelle called her over as Vash rubbed his head. "Meryl," she said, "That's not nice. As much as you may not like Vash, you still shouldn't hit him? Okay?"
Meryl nodded. "Okay....I'll /try/..." She went back to Milly, who was now playing with Vash and Nick.
Meanwhile, Legato was sitting under a tree, doing his favorite thing: sitting and looking. He was a bit afraid of some of the children, and he could feel that they were afraid of him too. Knives didn't seem scared by him though, and Dominique really seemed to like him. Maybe everything would be okay. After all, the worst thing that could happen was-
"Hi, Legato," Dominique said, interrupting his thoughts. "Whatcha doin?"
"Oh, hi Dominique. I'm just thinkin' an stuff."
"Call me Domi."
"k, Domi. Whadder you doin?"
"Nothin..." There was an almost awkward silence. "Oh, Legato?"
"Yah, Domi?"
"Knives is startin' a club, an he wants you to be in it. Dya wanna come?"
Legato almost froze. A club would be nice...He'd get some friends, and have a lotta fun...But...they didn't know about his...power...But maybe they wouldn't ask. After all, it /was/ just a club...He nodded, and was pulled along by Domi to where Knives and Midvalley were decimating the spider town.
Knives looked up. "Oh, you have arrived, Domi and Legato. Come, sit with us. We need to tell Legato what this is about." He paused breifly as Legato and Domi sat down to brush some sand off of his pants.
"You see, Legato, there are two types of people on this world. Tha spiders-" he pointed to Milly, Meryl, and Nick, "and the plants, such as me."
"However, some people that are born as spiders become plants. This club is for those people, the ones who have"-he turned to Legato, Midvalley, and Domi-"special power-thingies..."
Legato /did/ freeze. The last person who had discovered his powers was his babysitter, and she was alwyas very mean to him...What was Knives gonna do to him? He looked up at Knives. "I-I don't have any powers..." he said, hoping they would buy it.
Knives shook his head. "No, Legato, I am sure of your power-thingies, and other things about you as well..."
"Like what?"
Knives did something which sounded like he was clearing his throat, but was most likely trying to get the spider sand out of his body. "When you first came in, I noticed...something about you. Everyone did. Then, later, you made the kitty come to you...It's alright. We all have powers here, so we're gonna be nice to ea'other. In fact," he said, with an exaggerated change of mood, "let's go around and say our powers! I'm a plant, so there are too many for me to list right now, so let's have Midvalley go!"
Midvalley smiled. "My sax makes things explode. It's funny, an it can do other things too! An' only I can use it!"
Domi rolled her eyes. "Ooh...explosions...highly original..." Midvalley looked annoyed. "And what can /you/ do, then?"
Legato watched as Domi-chan searched the pockets of her coat for something. After a while, she pulled out a little gray eyepatch. "This," she said as she put it on, "lets me do /this/..." As if by magic, she almost appeared on the other side of Knives, between him and Legato. Legato screamed.
"Wha-how-huh?" Domi smiled. "See? It's fun."
Knives grinned. "And now, we have begun our club. I shall name it...The Gung-Ho Guns! Now, onto what we shall-"
"Knives-sama?"
Knives turned back to Legato. "Yes, Legato?"
"I-I think we should pause what we are doing, at least for a little while."
"Why do you say that, Legato?"
"Well...um...people are beginnin to be s'picious."
"Such as who?"
"Well, your brother is an obvious one; He keeps on givin us these /looks/, and Miss Isabelle has become very wary of us, I'm sure of it..."
Knives frowned for a minute, then remembered Legato's powers. "Legato has a point," Domi said. "We need an...um...an alihi!"
Knives nodded in agreement. "From now on, if any person, spider or plant, that is outside the club asks about this, this is the club of people....that like butterflies!"
Domi nodded, and Midvalley and Legato stared. "You...like /budderflies/?" Legato asked.
"Of course!" Knives exclaimed. "/Nobody/ suspects the butterfly!"
Legato smiled and nodded, noting that Midvalley and Domi were smiling a little /too/ much...especially at him...
Knives, thankfully, ended the weirdness, and said that the club meeting was over. As Legato walked off, he noticed that Domi was still following him.
"Erm...Hi Domi..."
"Hi, Legato."
"Um...why are you following me?" Legato wasn't sure he /wanted/ to know why Domi-chan was following him to the potty.
Domi laughed and pointed at the door. "Cause it's time to go inside, silly!"
Oh...Legato almost sighed a sigh of releif...but then he remembered he REALLY had to use the potty.
"K, bye!" he said as he went inside, rueing the person who invented nice apple juice.
But before he could get into the room, Domi leaned in and kissed him before disappearing away. Legato's eyes went wide. What was /that/ about?? Wasn't that how you get cooties or something?? He supposed he would ponder it later. Right now he had to remember where the potty was...
^_^ Long, long-awaited chapter! The Gung-Ho Guns have been formed, Vash likes Meryl, and Legato has to use the potty.
As usual, R&R, please!
