Vash awoke the next morning to the smell of bacon and eggs. He blinked slightly and glanced around gazing to the fire to see Knives slumped over it and poking at a Sunnyside up egg with a fork. Vash sat up slowly and rubbed the sleep from his eyes, then stretched with a yawn to accompany. While scratching the back of his head he muttered " good morning Knives" In a half yawn. He watched his brother dump the eggs and bacon onto a plate and raise the dish his way. He smiled and gingerly took the plate and a clean fork from his bag and began to eat. He had no idea Knives could cook, though it seemed obvious once he thought about it, being cooped up in a ship you'd have to fend for yourself.
Knives pulled two more eggs and the rest of the bacon off the skillet and ate using the fork he'd used to make breakfast, didn't want to make too much dirty, no water to wash dishes with in iles. After some bout of silence his brother chimed in with " Hey that was pretty good Knives, I never knew you could cook so well." Knives glanced up at Vash as he stuffed the last of the bacon in his mouth and set his plate aside " thanks" was all he said in response.
Vash smiled some then gazed around, a glint of the sun on metal caught his eye. He turned his gaze to his brother's right side and saw both weapons sitting by him. His smile soon vanished, as he looked up at Knives " Where'd you get those?" Knives raised a brow and stopped his clean up of breakfast to glance at Vash, then down at the guns. His brow furrowed in annoyance as he spoke " I noticed my gun was missing so I went looking for it, if you attempted to hide them from me you did a poor job, I found them shortly after walking a ways out into the desert."
Vash sighed, "I wasn't attempting at hiding them really, I just wanted to get rid of them. They caused so much trouble, especially when near you." He cleared his throat as Knives responded. "Are you daft? We have these guns for protection." Vash frowned "I didn't think we needed them that badly. Besides we're going to be out in the desert away from civilization, what would we need them for now?"
Knives shook his head " No, I'm not staying out here in the desert spending every waking hour with you. Even if you are my brother, I would eventually be driven to the edges of insanity if that were to occur. We're going to travel."
Vash sat up straight and his eyes widened "What? You want to travel. but you hate crowded cities to begin with. Plus, I'm not taking you anywhere with that gun! I won't have what happened back there, in Domino, happen elsewhere."
Knives merely smirked " You can't keep me here dear brother, and you know that." Knives merely observed Vash's facial expressions on that one. His face sort of contorted and twisted as if those words were pain, or a problem, something he didn't like to admit but he knew was right. Then Vash added " So. why do you want to travel besides getting away from just spending time with me?"
Knives replied " I decided upon much thinking through, that perhaps I'll let you have your way, you wanted to travel with me after I recovered in the first place. In doing so hoping I would see how great vermin are up close. Well, fine, I'll get to see your view of things, and prove you wrong on it, through your own doing." He smirks " Vash, I'm going to keep my gun with me. Though I can't promise that I won't hurt any of the vermin."
Vash frowned " You can't kill them.and I'd rather you not take the gun at all, that would ensure no use of the angel arm." Knives frowned some, pretending the words hurt him "What's wrong Vash, can't trust your own flesh and blood?" he smiled darkly then " Well its either I bring the gun an just wound the humans, or use my mind tricks and kill them. Since that's all I ever use my abilities for anyway." Vash bit his lower lip and sighed, being defeated on that note.
Knives nodded some "Good, get packed and we leave today, these rocks won't give us much cover when afternoon hits, and that'll be in a few hours." He began to roll up his blankets and stuff his pillow in Vash's pack. Vash mirrored this gesture and by 11:00 they were packed and ready to go.
Millie stood over the sink washing some vegetables to cut up and place in the soup she was preparing. Meryl had left some time ago to go shopping, though she wasn't sure why. They had all the supplies they need, and they had enough food to last about a week yet. She frowned to herself as she peeled the potatoes and cut them into smaller pieces. She hesitated some and glanced up at the window seeing some kids playing outside with the neighborhood cat. That cat reminded her of Vash, it always seemed to appear where Vash had been, what did the kids call it? Kuroneko?? Such a sweet animal it was, so much like Vash.
She frowned some to herself, she wondered just how well Vash was doing. He was out there with Knives after all. Whenever those two were around each other they had a tendency to level towns. She shook her head and smiled some looking to her potatoes and continuing her job. "I'm sure they're just fine.in fact I bet they're having a great time together!"
Knives trudges through the desert halfway annoyed with the heat that has snuck up on them since this morning and Vash's wining the whole damned trip. He growled lowly, a sound that erupted from the pits of his very being. How did Vash expect him to stay in the desert with him for days let alone travel with him now? It was simply out of the question. As long as they got to the city and away from things that Vash would cry about he could keep his sanity. He thought on that a moment, going to a city wouldn't be saving him much, but it would be better than this. he hoped.
"Knives. I've got to use the bathroom! Can't we stop for a little? I'm hungry. please?" Vash continued to announce. Knives growled once more, loud enough for Vash to hear and swiveled quickly to glare at him. Vash simply halted in his tracks and blinked at his brother innocently. " For the last time NO!!! Dammit Vash, we have to make it to the city before nightfall. If we stop for any small thing it will take off travel time, your stomach can wait."
Vash frowned at this " Yeaaaah, maybe my stomach can wait, but my bladder sure can't, I'm about to pee my pants here!" Knives rolled his eyes, too much information. He furrowed his brow as Vash danced around, leaping from his left foot to his right as he teetered in the sand. He heaved an annoyed sigh with a half growl and turned his back " FINE! Relieve yourself, I'm going on ahead, you'll catch up." With that Knives starting walking up the dune as Vash turned to answer to nature's call.
Millie smiled some to herself upon conclusion that the boys would be fine on their own. What's a little brother-to-brother trip anyway? It might actually do them some good. She finished the potatoes and turned to the pot as a loud thud was heard from the hallway. The sound of the door busting from its lock and slamming hard into the wall caught her immediate attention. Her hand picked up the rolling pin near by as she popped her head out into the hallway to see what was going on.
Meryl burst in through the door, her hands full of groceries and other items. She panted some and rushed into the kitchen setting the bags down and glaring at Millie " Millie, why didn't you answer the door? I was kicking it for at least five minutes straight!" Millie simply smiled innocently and laughed a bit " I'm sorry ma'am, I guess I was day dreaming." She turned back to her pot and dumped the potatoes in. "I was wondering about the boys Meryl, and hoping they were ok."
Meryl sighed some and started to unload some of the food and categorize it onto the tabletop. " Well you won't have to worry about that any more Millie, we're going to find out." Millie simply smiled and nodded "Well that's good, now I won't have to miss the next time you try to get in the door with your hands full." She chuckled some at herself the thought not occurring to her just yet.
Meryl shook her head and sighed "Millie.." Finally it dawned on the tall blonde and she stopped her work and looked at Meryl " You mean we're going to go visit them?" Meryl nodded "Yup, why else do you think I went shopping?" Millie shrugged "Oh I don't know Meryl I thought you just wanted some girl time I guess." Meryl simply chuckled to that "Well I need you to get ready after supper, I'd like to start out in the morning." Millie chuckled some "Ok ma'am, oh it'll be so nice to see the two of them again. Even mister Knives, though he's not so happy to see us most of the time." Meryl laughed dryly " You've got that right Millie." she slowly poured some bullets for her derringers into a small pouch on her belt.
A tall figured wondered the desert, his form cloaked in a long flowing black trench coat. He wore black ridding pants, and a silk black shirt. His face was hidden by a wide brimmed black cowboy hat, a hand lightly grasping the edge as strong desert winds whipped at his form daring to knock the article off his head. Long strands of silver hair whipped at his shoulders, tied back in a low ponytail. The wind tussled the locks, each strand shimmering in the desert sun, like individual strands of metal. He watched two forms in the distance. A tall, lanky man with blonde spiky hair and a red trench coat that billowed in the breeze at his ankles and his companion, a man at the same height and build. A smirk curled over the lips, dark and devious, the sun glistening on the smile and setting it out from the shadow of his hat.
HAHAHA that's it. I'm introducing one of my own characters; it's going to get interesting ne? I hope so, what does this man want? Why is he following Vash and Knives? Maybe you'll find out? Untill next time!
Vash: Hey. that guys kinda skeery..*Pops a donut into his mouth and swallows whole* Me: *grumbles* Yes he is Vash, way to point out the obvious *tosses vash a donut* Vash: YAY! *Eats happily and shuts up* Me: *Sighs* anyway, like I said, until next time! R&R PLEASE!! PS. If any of you have suggestions on a name for the character tell me, I'd like to hear from you. I'm looking for a first name and maybe an evil nick name that other people would know him by. Think evil!!! If no suggestions I've got a back up name planned but still I'd like to see your responses!! Neway, ta ta for now!
