Thank you all for reviewing my story! ^_^

Part 4- Sudden changes
Vash sat down on his bed with his legs crossed. His eyes were closed and he was concentraiting on everything. Meditating if you will.
'What am I going to do? I can't very well hide the fact that I'm Vash from those girls if they are going to be traveling with me. You idiot Erics! You're going to be the death of those two girls if they find out who I am really am.'
Then a sudden knock, made him snap out of his concerntraition. Vash glared at the door for interupting him.
"Mr. Vash?" Milly's voice traveled through the door.
"Yes?" Vash said, tring to sound as 'pleasent' as possible.
"Dinner's ready if you want to come down and eat." Milly said cheerfully to through the door.
"Thank you. I'll be down in just a second." Vash replayed, before looking back down at the sheets. He was hungery, but what if someone ticked him off? Well, then that would be the end of this job.
He gave a smirk before getting up and going downstairs.
As he sat down at the table, Marianne noticed a slight change in the aura around him. Vash almost stiffened at that.
"Mr. Vash? Is something wrong?" She asked him.
"No nothing." He said, putting on a bit of a goofy smile. The whole time he was plotting a way to kill Erics for this moment.
"Ok." She said, turning her attention away from him. Vash almost gave a relieved sigh, but held back.
See, Vash wasn't one to show any kind of emotion. Unless, the people around him saw Erics first, then he would pretend to be a happy-go-lucky idiot for awhile.
Vash glanced around the house. Something wasn't right. Even if this man did make money from water, he shouldn't be THIS rich.
"Is something wrong?" Mr. Cliff asked.
"I was just wondering, if water is this profitable?" Vash asked.
"You see. There has been a shortage on water. Since I supple the water, and am the only one in around here who has water, I receive all the profits from it." He explained.
"I see." Vash said.
'So. You raise the prices to extreme amounts and get money that way? No. He must be using the water in a different way to be this rich... wait. I'm not a do-gooder, so why the hell am I worring about these people's water? Erics must be having some effect on me. I'm growing too soft.' Vash thought to himself.
Vash knew all about Erics. He could watch the world from Erics' eyes. But, Erics has no idea he was there. Vash made sure of it since the first day he was born, that Erics had no idea about his other side.
Vash put his fork through the peice of meat on his plate. He was going to eat, protect these people, get paid and leave. That was all he was planning.
"You see my boy. If I don't protect the water here, someone could use it and dry it up." Mr. Cliff said.
"But that doesn't help the fact that you're becomming rich over a natural resource." Marianne said.
"Yes, I suppose you're right dear." He said, smiling.
"Excuse me, but I think I'll retire soon." She said, getting up from the table and leaving.
Vash took a glance at her. Then continued eating. It wasn't his problem the girl didn't want to eat. Once he was finished, he left the table and walked around the halls. He might as well stretch his legs while he was at it.
He started to walk around the corner, when he saw Miss. Marianne. She was sneaking around Mr. Cliff's study. Vash narrowed his eyes.
'So. I was right.' he thought to himself. He turned around and walked back to his room. It was time for some action.
*******
Ten minutes Later
*******
Vash, or rather Erics was asleep on his bed. Snoring away until Meryl and Milly ran into his room.
"huh.. what?" He started before being hit upside the head.
"Whatcha do that for?" He whinned, grabbing his head.
"What kind of body guard are you? You're asleep while everyone is missing!" Meryl said.
"Body guard.. Oh yeah! Everyone's missing?" he asked. He stood and continued in a deep voice. "Leave it to me! I shall figure out this puzzle!"
"yeah right." She said. Meryl and Milly walked out the room. Erics grinned and followed after them. he had nothing better to do.. right?
They met up in the living room.
"There's no sign of anyone." Meryl said.
"Do you think they were kidnapped?" Erics asked.
"We were outside the whole time. i think that's impossible." Meryl said.
"Oh! I'm so worried!" He started. Then walked over to the curtain. "They've been taken away somehow through some unknown way! As a body guard it's my job to find them and bring whoever took them to justice!"
"Don't kid yourself. You're not a real body guard after all. Besides, with the real Vash out there, I think we might have bigger problems." Meryl said.
"The real Vash hasn't harmed me so far, so don't worry about him right now."Erics said grinning.
"So, you really think Vash the Stampede is following you?" Meryl questioned.
"I'm sure of it!" Erics said, flinging his arms into the air. His arm got tangled up with the curtain rope, and he tripped over the table while tring to get out of it. He pulled it down with him.
The curtains opened along with a secert passage way.
"WOW! COOL!" Erics exclaimed and ran into the passage way like an excitied little kid.
"Wait! We don't know what's down there!" Meryl said.
Milly grabbed her wrist. "Come on Meryl! We have to follow Mr. Vash."
Meryl gave up and went with them.
********
Down the passge way
********
Erics, Meryl and Milly watched from around a corner. Miss. Marianne was being stepped on by Mr. Cliff.
"No way." Erics said, whispering to them. "I've got to stop them. Hold on. I'll sneak up on them."
"Ok, but be careful." Meryl said.
Erics walked out onto the water machine. He carefully walked across until he got to the middle, then he slipped.
"AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" He screamed as he slipped.
They all looked at him. He slipped and fell into the water. While down there he hit his head on the bottom. He blinked. He was Vash again.
Vash clentched his teeth as he made his way to the middle. He pushed himself up and grabbed onto the side. He looked up at both of them.
"Hello." he said calmly.
"idiot." Miss. Marianne whispered.
"So, you came to play the Hero did you?" Mr. Cliff said.
"Not really." Vash answered. He jumped out and onto the ground. "I'm only doing my job."
"Fine, then. Die." Mr. Cliff said. He aimed his gun at him, the fired.
Vash dodged it easily. "Is that all you got?"
"H-How.. could you?" Mr. Cliff asked, then started firing again.
Vash dodged them all and ran up to Mr. Cliff. he grabbed Mr. Cliff's gun from his hand, then pushed him back.
"You might want to take target practice." Vash said, throwing the gun over his shoulder like it was nothing.
"hehe.. I guess I was right in hiring you. Won't you agree?" He said, pulling open his coat, revealing four guns.
Vash narrowed his eyes and jumped out of the way. He grabbed a peice of chipped off ice and threw it at Mr. Cliff.
The guns hit the Machine behind Vash. Vash landed and walked Over to Miss. Marianne.
"You might want to hold your breath." He said.
They all saw the Machine blow up.
*************
Later that day
*************
"The water just overflowed that's all." Miss. Marianne said.
"Wow. That's a lot of water." Erics commented.
"Hey. Did you dodge all those bullets on purpose or was it a fluke?" Miss. Marianne asked Erics.
"Bullets?" Erics asked, then fainted.
They all stared at him with wide eyes.
Meryl shook her head. "Is guy is starting to give me a headache."
***********************
Yeah, I know. ^_^ Erics is a total dweeb! Remember he doesn't know what happens when Vash is in control, so he's not sure what happened. I hope you like this chapter! Please review!!!!!
