Legato's thoughts: bold


Disclaimer: I own Trigun and have complete control over my bitch, Legato! –nice men in white come in and give wolf her meds-

Legato is in July city, age 12

Legato was sitting on a bench right in the middle of the city. He talks to himself, "It's so hot, and peaceful. I've never felt like this before." He closes his eyes and his head hangs over the back of the bench. Children are playing and laughing, just plain having fun. Legato looks at them, although he killed people, he still had a heart. He smiled, he watched as the kids, young and old, played together.

I wonder if I should play with them?

As legato watched, his smile faded away as he thought back to when he was 7. His heart was filled with hatred and sorrow. He tried to shake it off but couldn't. It kept popping back into his head over and over again. He became angry… his whole being was filled with anger he couldn't take it. BANG! The ball that was being played with by the kids exploded. Everyone looked over startled and the kids just stare at the remains of the ball.

Was that… me? …. No it couldn't have been

As everyone went back to what they where doing, a large man in a red coat sat Next to Legato with a box. Legato looked at him and stared. The tall man, with blonde hair and those happy looking aqua eyes. "Who the hell are you? Go away, I was sitting here first!" Legato says. "you got a mouth on you don't you?" The tall blonde says and takes something out of the box. "Wanna donut?" he asks spitting crumbs all over Legato. "No, I don't want no fucking donut" he says wiping off the crumbs with a sleeve, "Little kids shouldn't cuss you know" the blonde says as he stuffs the donut into his mouth, "I'm Vash…" the blonde begins to speak but is cut off by legato, "don't talk with your mouth full, it's disgusting" he says rudely and glares at Vash. "…" Vash just looks at him and swallows his donut, "you know its not nice to be rude, haven't your parents taught you anything?" Vash asks and stuffs another donut into his mouth and munches happily.

"….. I have no parents" legato says quietly and looks at the ground. Vash looks down at little legato, "Oh," Vash says sympathetically, "that's too bad" as he speaks with his mouth full, AGAIN, and spits crumbs out. "DIDNT I TELL YOU NOT TO EAT WITH YOUR FUCKING MOUTH OPEN!?" legato says as he takes Vash's box of donuts and stomps it onto the ground," next time you should listen to what people say!" legato says as he stomps the box of donuts into the sand.

Vash has a look of horror on his face as he sees his precious donuts stomped into the ground, " T.T HOW COULD YOU!?" Vash asks as tears run down face, "MY DONUTS! NOOOOOOOOOO!" Vash screams at the top of his lungs and everyone looks at the crying mature adult (yeah right, and I own Trigun) and just stare on and on.

Geez what a big baby , crying over donuts. What happened to him?

"get up you big baby," legato sneers as he pokes the crying Vash's head with his worn out shoes, "they're just donuts!"

Vash suddenly stops crying and just lays there. Legato cocks an eyebrow up and is about to poke Vash again when Vash suddenly sits up with big watery eyes and a lower lip quivering, "T.T b….but th…they were m m… m… my d…doo…donuts" he blubbers out and cries harder then ever. "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Vash cries out and people walk by him and try to avoid look over at the blue haired freak and the crying man because they were freaked out.

Legato twitches with anger and screams out, " SHUT UP!" with saying this he kicks Vash in the jaw, "there's no use in crying over it cause it will do NOTHING! SAY IT! NOTHING! N-O-T-H-I-N-G! USE IT IN A SENTENCE, Crying will do NOTHING." Legato screams this and breathes heavily. Vash wipes the tears from his face and the blood from his bleeding lip and looks legato straight in the eyes of the angry/pissed legato, "That was mean," was all he would say to legato. Legato just stares at Vash and hits hit with fist, "god, you're such an idiot! WHY THE HELL DID I HAVE TO MEET YOU!? MOST LIKELY I WILL KILL YOU IF I EVER MEET YOU AGAIN!" legato screams and everyone in town hides from the angry legato. "….Don't say that, uh, what's your name?" Vash asks confused. Legato anime falls and just stays that way. Vash ask worriedly, "ARE YOU OK!?" and sits up legato, "it's Legato. Legato Bluesummers ok? Remember it well because it will be the last words you'll mutter as I kill yo…." Legato speaks in a monotone but was cut off by his rumbling stomach.

Dammit. How could I forget to go eat? Yelling at this guy must have made me more hungry

Vash pokes legato's stomach, "you must be hungry" Vash says completely ignoring what legato said earlier. "Go away and drop dead," legato whispers and walks away. Vash just stays there watching as legato walks off. " wow, angry kid" Vash says stupidly.

Legato walked out, it was evening and only one of the suns were out(is that possible?). Legato looks up and squints. "why can't I end it all now, god?"


It was getting late and he STILL didnt have anything to eat. he grabbed his stomach in pain. hunger was getting the best of him and he looked around desperatly. he noticed the smasheddonut box in the sand. Legato has on other choice but to eat the smashed sandy donut in the box. Legato walked over to the box and opened the lid and ate the disgusting donut. He slowly munched on the donut because he hated the taste but it was the only thing he could get.

No one was around, it was quiet, peaceful, and legato just stood there wiping his tounge with his shirt to get the donut taste off of it. He sniffs the air. "what the…" he noticed a smell that seemed familiar. Legato took another sniff to figure it out. Blood. He smelled that strange smell of blood and gun smoke.

What the fuck? What's going on?

Legato looked around and could here people talking. He walked over to a small building and looked in and saw a dead men on the ground with blood everywhere. He looked around and saw two tall blonde men…… one he recognized as Vash. The other one had a lighter color of blond hair and was speaking loudly but he couldn't make anything out. Vash was leaning against the wall and his left arm was missing, he was scared, Vash had a look of horror that legato hasn't seen since the people HE killed. Legato couldn't stop watching and then he saw a bright light coming from Vash's right hand and he was screaming in pain.

What…..what's going on? What is happening? His arm….. that light it's…. it's growing

Legato saw what used to be Vash's arm but is now a large whitish-silverish thing with a glowing light building up inside of it. Vash was screaming in pain as the thing replacing his arm built up power. "OMIGOD!" legato screamed and a blast of light shot off.


Legato passed out covered with the building remains badly injured. He lifts his head and tries to stand up. "I can't move… it hurts so bad" legato said to himself and a tear ran down his face. He was able to see a devastated city, no man made structure stood.

Legato doesn't know why but he had the urge to keep living. He stood up and winced in pain. His left arm was broken in 2 places and his right leg was broken in 5 places. He took off his shirt and tipped it making a crude sling for his arm and grabbed a large metal pipe bent for something to walk on. He slowly limped away under that blood red sky and the two suns beating down on him.
