Chapter 18    

Vash sat up bringing Kat with him. She continued to cry and he hugged her close to him. His voice reached her ears, "You're right. You're pain is just as deep as mine and it's my fault for asking you about it. It's only fair if I tell you my secrets too."

Kat looked up with a confused expression etched on her face.

Vash locked gazes a moment before continuing, "I'm not human as you know. I'm can tell from experience that I'm part angel but I'm not half devil and I'm not part demon. I have emotions just like you. I don't know how I came to be or much more than what you already know. Rem was the first person to accept me. She was like a mother to me and Knives both which is why I still don't understand why he hated her so much. The reason for the transformation was an accident, I didn't mean to touch the bulb but this house seems to have a unique power of its own. I underwent the initial transformation towards becoming full angel. Then you came in. I lost concentration and as a result it had a reverse effect; instead of me gaining power, the house took it back. You should have been affected by the mists; they should have knocked you out. And how you were able to see my wings is still a mystery also. Only my brother and the plant angels have ever been able to see them. No, not even I know much about the plant angels. I do know that I am one of them though; I am a being that exists outside of time. I will not live forever but I'm not even half way through my life. I entered this time a few months after I shot down Knives. Wolfwood lived and now Milly is married happily to him. They have two children. Meryl ended up with Knives but how long that will last is a mystery. And as for me? I still wander the planet saving lives without having to kill anyone. I never married and I never stopped roaming, perhaps the quiet life isn't for me?"

There was a pause before Kat managed to choke out between sobs, "That's the biggest load of bull I've ever heard."

Vash sighed, "What else did you want me to say?" They sat there a few moments before Vash asked, "Do you still love Kenshin?"

Kat sighed, not wanting to talk about it, "I love the man he used to be, not the vegetable he is now." Her eyes glazed over, "I miss him so much. What I wouldn't give to see him walk again."

Vash wiped away her tears again, "There is one other reason you could have seen my wings…." Kat looked at him questioningly. "The only other way you could have seen them is if…" He paused as she sat curled against his chest, relishing the warmth his body offered and the comfort he offered with it.

That gave him the courage to continue, "…is if… I loved you."
