DISCLAIMER: I have based this story on the movie The Quick and the Dead.
Whether it is based loosely or sorely is up to the reader. This is my first
Trigun fic so if I do something wrong then please do not heckle me about
it. This story is more about the characters then the show's story so they
may be OOC for some. I own neither Trigun or the Quick and the Dead. Enjoy.

A lone figure rode through the desert land on the back of a Thomas. Not far away a big man with a Mohawk was digging in the ground with his hands instead of the shovel, looking for some money he buried from a heist. He heard the footsteps of the Thomas and saw the man approaching. He grabbed his big boomerang weapon and flung it at him, knocking the driver off his steed.
Descartes turned him over and saw he was a blonde Asian man lying on the ground with a big tear in his already tattered brown coat. The man drew his silver pistol and swatted Descartes over the head, knocking him out.
Later Descartes woke up to see Vash with the long red coat that he had in his coach.
"I'm gonna kill you." Descartes said, standing up but suddenly realized he was tied up by his own boomerang line.
"Thanks for the clothes." Vash said, tipping his yellow sunglasses up over his eyes and with that he turned and rode off.
"Damn you, don't you leave me here. If I ever see you again I'll kill you, so help me God I'll kill you, you bastard!!!!!" Descartes shouted as Vash rode off.
Vash soon rode past a graveyard which lay outside of a nearby town. The sign said "Dimitri". Vash looked over the horizon and knew he had found his destination. As he looked on a bunch of people on Thomas back rode into town. Vash rode in slowly as he passed by the bank and blacksmith. People looked at Vash as he passed by. He saw a man up in the balcony of a building. He had a saxophone in his hand and some women around him. He glared at Vash.
At the outside of a saloon Vash climbed off his steed and walked inside. He saw an old bartender and his son helping him stack whiskey bottles on a high shelf. The bartender only glanced at Vash and continued to his work
"How about a room?" Vash said, taking a sip from his small flask
"I'm sorry, but no Chinamen." The bartender said.
Vash put the flask away when he heard that.
"Say that again?" Vash said, his eyes narrowing
"I say no Chinamen allowed." He repeated.
Suddenly he slipped off his stool and dropped the bottle. Vash reacted quickly and grabbed the man and the bottle. He sat the man down and poured a drink.
"A Chinaman just saved your life. Now do you have a room or not?" Vash demanded.
"Yes sir, one in the back. Come on Kaite lets get the man a room and a bath." The bartender said to his son.
As they left a man all dressed in black swung open the bar doors and stood in the way. He started shuffling a deck of cards.
"Hey bartender, I want a bottle of red wine." He said
"Yes sir." He said.
The man looked at Vash.
"Wanna play poker Mr. Blonde man?" he asked.
"Sorry, I don't gamble." Vash said.
"Ah but it is no ordinary deck. I put in an ace of spades every time I kill a man. The name is Grim Reaper Bostalk." He said, showing off the deck.
Vash didn't listen as he walked out. As he sat on a chair a kid began shining his boots for him.
Vash sipped his drink while he looked at the big mansion at the end of town and saw it had the only green and plants he had seen on the planet. The rest of the world was barren and deserted, but it was like a Garden of Eden. Neil could see that Vash was interested in it.
"Millions Knives owns that house. He gets pleasure from running this town with an iron fist." Neil. The boy, said.
"What does the town get from him?" Vash asked.
"It gets to live." Neil said as he finished the polish job.
Another rider came into town and stopped outside the saloon only it was a woman with long black hair.
"Hi Dominique." Neil said to her
"Shut up." She shouted as she went into the bar and seconds later a man was thrown out. He got on his Thomas and ran off. Suddenly in a split second it looked like she teleported, she aimed her long pistol and fired, knocking him off the steed and killing him. She made a mark on her gun handle
"That makes 15." She said. She looked at Vash and Neil.
"I just got out of prison." She said.
"Good for you." Vash said.
"I had a life sentence but they let me out early." She said, eyeing Vash with her one eye. Her right eye was covered by a small metal plate.
"You're a cutie." Dominique said.
"You're a Cyclops." Vash said.
"I need a man like you in my life." She said
"You need a pirate ship and a parrot." Vash joked. Neil snickered a little. Dominique bumped into the shelf full of Neil's things and knocked it over.
"Oops, must be blind in this eye." She said sarcastically as she walked off. Vash said nothing and finished his drink.
Later Kaite showed Vash to his room. As he passed on room he heard people talking
"We prayed to God there would be a man like you who could help us."
"Well maybe you should've called a priest, this is strictly business, nothing more."
"We have these jewels"
Vash peeked in and saw some peasants making a money pile in front of a blonde man with a mustache and a long cross shaped rifle on his back. The man turned and had a "sheriff" star on him. He slammed the door in Vash's face.
Kaite poured some water into the tub by the bed
"Don't mind my dad, he's just stupid." Kaite said as Vash began unpacking.
"I've never seen a Chinaman carry a gun before. Are you here for the contest?" Kaite kept asking, trying to look at Vash's things but he stopped him.
"I guess I'll go now." Kaite said, leaving
Vash pulled out a faded picture of a woman with dark brown hair. He sighed.
