Vash was walking through the dester.He was thinking of which way he should go.He took out his map, which was full of holes, and tried to examin it.He had an idea of which way he needed to go but his good luck just was not with him today.The corner that the city was located was totaly tourn off."Aww great!Now what?I'm never going to find him now,"Vash wined.

He was looking for the city of December ,where, hopefully, he could get directions to Nickolas's orphanage.He lowered one of the packs off his backand opened it gently. Inside was a small child with black hair and deep brown eyes.She was no more than a year old.Vash had found her abandoned in Agusta. He knew he could not care for her so he decided to bring her to Nickolas.

Vash sighed and sat down,looking at the child,"I have to you something,because it looks like we are going to be together for a while,"he said thoughtfully.He looked at the sleeping child , her hair and eyes reminded him so much of Rem, and of how much he missed her.With a small smile across his face he wispered softly, "I'll call you Rem." He stood up and put on the pack,"Now which way ?Hmmm, I know we'll go east!"and with that he started walking in the direction he claimed was east.

A week later Nickolas decides it is time to go get some wiskey.He needed to get drunk, he needed to escape.Thoughts of his past would not leav him alone,especially the thought of Millie.Sure she was a bit simple,OK,he admits to himself, realy simple, but she was such a good soul.With that thought he gets on his motorcycle and drives off.

"It's about time.Look Rem, we're here.Soon you won't have to travle with me any more,"with that he stopped.Vash had grown very attached to the child and now that he thought about it he did not want to leave her with Nick.He also knew if he left her he might never see her again."It's for the best," he wispered softly to himself.With that he slowly walked into the city of December.
