INCIDENT FIVE: Major in Calculus
The two suns shone brightly down on an endless sea of desert. For iles and iles there was nothing but sand. maybe a rock. but that was only if you were lucky. In the middle of all this nothingness stood two very unhappy agents of the Bernardelli Insurance society.
"Ohh, I'm gonna kill that broom-haired idiot when we find him! How are we supposed to figure out which way he's going?" Meryl screamed, hopping back on her slightly-frightened Thomas.
"But, Meryl, that's simple." Her associate, Millie Thompson began to explain, "You see if Vash was going that way at five iles per hour and we were traveling this way at thirty iles per hour then the distance divided by the hypotenuse of a right triangle, multiplied by pi to the fourteenth power makes us A, Vash B, and that rock C, and if -b plus or minus the square root of b squared minus four multiplied by ac over 2a is used with those variables we should go that way!" Millie said in one breath.
Meryl blinked.
..
"How did you know that?"
"Oh, my younger older brother was a calculus major." Millie replied with a big goofy grin, while climbing onto her Thomas, "We better get moving before we loose Mr. Vash."
"Riiiiiiiiight."
And off they rode into the sunset.
