the Trigun creators themselves have not created. This is the sequel to
Vampire Tendencies, hope you like. And do not worry, there may be
appearences by other Trigun characters and Legato 'might' come back. So, if
you you want to know how it all turns out, read the sequel.

"Nicole..."
I stirred at the sound of a familiar voice. "Legato," I murmered.
A warm hand touched my cheek and I opened my eyes. Legato stood there, his golden eyes glowing in the darkness. Tears streamed down my face as I jumped onto him, my heart beating franticly with happiness. "Legato!"
Legato's strong arms came around me and he hugged me tight against him. "My love...been waiting long, have you?" He whispered.
I kissed him with all my worth. I couldn't help myself. I broke away and we were both breathless. "I..thought you were dead...well..in hell. How'd you get back?" I asked.
Legato shrugged. "My power. I've missed you, Nicole," he replied and gazed into my eyes.
"I've longed to be in your arms again, Legato. I've been so depressed lately, but now..I'm overjoyed."
He leaned in and kissed me. I fell back and brought him with me, landing on the bed. Legato's warm hands ran up my arms and it felt as if my security blanket was back, enveloping me in a forever hold. His lips wandered down and he nibbled at my neck. "Legato."
"Hm?"
He looked up and I smiled, tears running down my cheeks. "Will you be here...forever?"
Legato smiled and his right hand touched my cheek. I let my head rest into his warm hand and I sighed inwardly. "I won't leave your side for anything, Nicole. I'm back..isn't that all that matters?" He asked.
I nodded and soon our love overcame us.

Chris looked up and frowned. The hair on the back of his neck stood straight as Slash appeared. "Chris..going up there yet?" Slash asked with a mocking tone.
"Silence!" Chris snapped.
Slash raised an eyebrow. "Silence? Is that the best you can do? Hah, fuck you."
"You wish," Chris muttered.
"What was that!?"
Chris turned to Slash with serious eyes. "Can't you feel it?" He asked.
"Feel what?.......eh, now that you mention it. I do feel something. Wooo, that's a lot of power. It's coming from Nicole's apartment?"
"Yeah. It is. Do you think it's Vash?"
Slash snorted. "Vash? He doesn't have the will to have sex with Nicole. Nor does he pack anything, I suppose. The little ooberdyke."
Chris fought the urge to snicker. But he then found jealousy burrowing into his veins. "Maybe she's...you know, being raped?"
"Hahaha! Nicole is a tough cookie. She stood up to me that one time, remember? She'd have a dead man in her bedroom. Besides...who else would be lucky enough to bed Nicole?"
Chris felt a stab of 'duh'. "Do you think Legato came back early?"
"Yeah. He has that kind of power. Maybe he got more powerful in the Underworld. He'll probably want revenge on you, old chap."
Chris frowned and felt the stomach acids rise to his throat. Everything he had hoped for, was coming to a dead end. Nicole was gone. Gone from his reach, and now Legato had a second time to deprive her of hope. Rage filled Chris and he took a step. Slash's hand came over Chris's right shoulder. "I wouldn't do that if I were you," he warned.
"You're not me," Chris said.
"Yeah, that's a good thing. Because if I was, I wouldn't get killed just to get a girl. Do you really think she's that important to die for?"
"Yes."
Slash removed his hand and frowned. Chris headed towards the apartment.
-
I looked up into Legato's eyes. Beads of sweat slid down his muscular chest and he smiled. "You alright?" He asked as he got out of bed.
I didn't know what to say, so I said nothing as he got dressed. I wrapped the sheets around myself and smiled, lucky to have Legato back here and in my arms. Legato turned to me and frowned. "You're shaking."
He walked over and sat next to me. Legato put his arms around me and kissed me gently on the forehead. "Nicole...I've missed you so much."
"And I've missed you, Legato. Chris-"
I felt Legato flinch and tighten with an unseen rage. I stopped my sentence. "What happened while I was gone?" Legato inquired.
"Chris sent two men over to help me...Vash was real nice and Jesse helped me get blood. I stopped eating when you...were killed," I replied.
"You shouldn't have done that...stop eating. But I trust Jesse and Vash, both were very good friends of mine. Well, I have some business to attend to. You know, I've been gone for so long."
I looked up into Legato's eyes. "You have to leave now?"
"I'll be back soon, don't worry yourself. Then we can talk about the matters at hand, Nicole."
He let go of me and headed for the door. "Be safe," I said.
"No one will kill me again, Nicole. I promise you that," he said just before he left the room.
I felt cold and alone.
-
Chris wandered up the steps and stopped suddenly. Legato exited the apartment and looked straight at Chris.
"I see you've come to see what that power was, eh?" Legato inquired as he walked towards Chris.
Chris stood his ground. "Don't fuck with me, Legato. I want to know how you got back, and why," he replied with an icey voice.
"Oh, big words for a kid about to die."
Legato swung his arm and a huge wave of energy sent Chris off the staircase. Legato jumped down after Chris and landed firmly on his feet. "You shouldn't have killed me, Chris. Even if I knew you loved Nicole, I would have called it a treuce. But you had to..well, stick that rod into me. Now, I'm feeling a little violent right now. And, oh, you're the only on out that I can torture. It's your lucky day, sonny," Legato sneered.
Chris got to his feet and frowned. "I'm going to kill you, Legato. And Nicole will be mine!" He snarled.
Legato stood tall and raised an eyebrow. "You have it all wrong, Chris. You should be saying that you're going to die, and Nicole will be yours. Will..and always have been..mine."
Chris's power boosted and his whole features changed. His hair grew lighter in color and his eyes glowed. Legato made a tsk sound. "I get to fight what really got the best of me? Grand, then I can kill the second most powerful vampire."
"Legato, you've met your match! You won't be able to live through this!"
"Oh, but I will. I've been thinking in the Underworld, and I have just one thought. Kill the only thing standing between me and..well...loving Nicole more than I should. Now, be a good boy and self-destruct or something," Legato said as he waved his right hand.
"Mock me all you like! But that mockery won't save you, Legato!"
Chris lundged and Legato dodged easily, turned and swung downwards. Chris vanished and reappeared above. Legato sidestepped and Chris landed on the ground, the two glared at each other. Chris snorted. "Why dodge? Why not become offensive and attack? Can you really feel my tremendous power?" He inquired.
"Just shut up already, you're giving me a splitting headache. I've just spent most my energy earlier," Legato said with a sarcastic tone.
"Yeah, using your better qualities to reconnect you and Nicole."
Legato smirked and Chris swung, caught Legato's cheek and ripped a neat gash through it. Legato only stood there without a flinch, but with a smirk playing across his lips. The gash instantly vanished and Legato's hand sprang, faster than the eye could see, and took hold of Chris's throat. "Any last words before your head pops off?" Legato asked with a frown.
"Hehe, you're malice," Chris replied with a smile.
"Me? Malice?"
"Yes, you. Legato. You were from the start. A newbie vampire only a year before, but so evil inside that you couldn't stop killing. I've seen you out in the dead of night, killing anything that came across your path. How long until you kill Nicole? Huh? You've already killed one of your loves, what stops you from killing Nicole?"
Legato looked into Chris's eyes and a sort of warm glow came from him. "She carries my child," he said.
Chris struggled, but Legato squeezed his hand closed and Chris turned to dust. Legato opened his hand as a gust of wind came through and swept the remains away. He turned and looked up at the darkened sky. Legato smiled and as he turned, a single tear was swept from his face. A tear of pure happiness.
-- To Be Continued -- Oooh! Nicole's pregnant? Eh, wonder if it'll be a boy or gurl...hehehe. Poor Chris died, but I don't think he'll be coming back. And there will be more appearances by Vash and Jesse later on ^^;. Hope you liked.
