Chapter 3: Meryl's Jealousy

Millie was the first one out of the door and had Meryl laughing nervously wondering if they were even going to find Vash in the old building at all because if she was thinking right then that was an access tunnel and they could be on the other side of this small town. Better yet they might even be in another town, who knows Hope might have that kind of influence to build such a thing.

Meryl had worn her normal brown trench coat with her little guns for back up. She didn't want to be backed up in a corner and no way out now did she? More doubts came up into her mind and she turned to Millie again as they went down the stars of the inn they were staying, "maybe we should ask around before we go?"

Millie shakes her head again and gives her a huge grin, "NONSENCE! We can do this Meryl..."

Meryl wished she felt just as optimistic but she knew the probabilities and other building blocks that can be thrown in their paths as they try to find out what happened but Meryl being Meryl did what she always did.... She took charge and she grinned nodding her head, "Alright we are going to only peek in, that's if his not in trouble if he needs help we might help him."

Millie grins and nods her head once and then another time as she followed Meryl towards the Doctor's office.

Meryl went up to the doctor's office door and tried to open it but found it locked...

Millie smiles and produces a key, which gained a raised brow from Meryl who was waiting for an explanation, "Janitor and this is one of the buildings I clean." She said cheerily. (A/n: You always notice she always has the things you need to get into a place lol! Here is my theory... I think Millie is smarter then she realizes.)

Meryl wondered about Millie sometimes... because sometimes Millie scared her on how she knew things and had things right when you needed them. She walks into the doctors office and looks around with a curious glance... It was extremely small with five or so rooms a reception desk and a work room for Hope... Then she looked to the bookcase and raised a brow she didn't know where to start and she finally turned to Millie hoping that she could help with this final clue, "Do you know what kind of trap door it was?"

Millie gets a questioning look on her face as she looks around and shrugs, "Nope.."

Meryl side as she started to look along the frame of the bookcase looking for triggers. "Millie start looking."

Millie did the same but got a splinter and she started to cry.

Meryl sighs, "Start checking the books." She said as she watched her friend take out the splinter and suck on her finger. She finishes the frame and starts to pull on the books. "She's a doctor... So let's try some medical books." Pulls a couple with no use.

Millie sees a single cookbook and makes a ooing noise as he goes to pull it but the trap door opens. She gives a blank look as she keeps on trying to pull it out, "It's gotta have some good pudding recipes."

Meryl laughs nervously as she stared at Millie but she grabs her and slowly drags her down the hallway. She then notices something different it was like they were leaving the building because she knew there was nothing behind Hope's building. She stops at the entrance and she looks up and down the short hall and she sees the airshaft with a nod she walks over to it and draws herself up.

Millie follows and she makes Meryl slide down slightly and when they stopped they froze and listened hoping no one heard them and when they heard nothing they sighed in relief.

Hope hadn't heard it because she was to busy working with some headphones on listening to Vash's heartbeat. She watched him carefully looking for any signs of distress and any signs of waking up because she was ready to turn up the gas when she needed. She didn't want Vash to be in any pain.

Vash laid on the table looking like a young kid with sweat forming on his forehead. A couple of times his face would change showing pain but then it would calm down and he would go back to sleep or he would mumble, "donut." Sometimes he mumbled words like, "Knives," "Rem," and, "Legato." A couple other times he talked about, "Wolfwood," "Meryl," and, "Millie." Then finally at one point he muttered about Hope being his Ultimate Donut.

Hope grinned about those things and listened carefully. She smiled warmly wondering what his mind was thinking about under that kind of state... but who honestly knew. She then said, "Computer play Mozart Number 10"

Meryl made her way towards the sound slowly trying not to make the noise any louder then what the music was.

Hope slowly moves up onto the table and takes out a syringe as she bends over and starts to work on the scars.

Meryl makes it to the airshaft over the table and it actually looked like Vash and Hope was making out from a birds eye view and plus the view was REALLY limited. Suddenly Meryl is consumed by jealousy and her fists clench and turn white.

Millie blinked and then looked down in curiosity but didn't see much but Meryl grabbed her arm and started to pull her towards the trap door again. This time Millie didn't fight with her because she knew that Meryl was extremely upset and she understood. It was best for them to get some sleep and ask around in the morning.

Hope then gets down off of the table and moves back over to the counter to get more solution but the scars on Vash's chest were slowly disappearing. She had stripped him and of course he was lying naked on the table. She then went over and looked at the metal parts that she had and then looked at the liquid metal that she needed to make the parts that she needed to mold. She got more solutions gave him more shots in some more scars and starts to take measurements on his arm... Vash was never going to be the same again.
