Chapter 2

"Where are we going Knives" asked Vash

"Theres a ship just over the horizon here" said Knives, "If I recall, we should find some plants there"

"What are you going to do with the plants?" asked Vash

"What do you think?" Said Knives, "We are going to create an Eden where we can live, in peace"

"Like Rem said?" asked Vash

"No!" shouted Knives, "Not like that, just us, none of those... humans"

"Why do you hate them so much?" Vash asked

"They are destructive, they destroyed the very world that they lived on before, and they will do it again!" Knives shouted

"Ok, ok just calm down Knives, they have the plants now, they wont destroy this world" Vash said

"Yes, I know, that's why I am so mad" Knives said, a bit calmer, "They are imprisoning, and using our brethren to keep themselves alive"

"But do you have to kill them?" asked Vash, with a touch of anger

"Better them than this world" Knives replied

"I think they are better THAN this world" said Vash, "Their lives are theirs to guide, and they should choose who or what to follow, not you"

"You don't make any sense Vash" replied Knives

"Lets just get where we're going" Vash said, "Im getting tired of fighting"

"For once you come to your senses" Knives said, as he continues walking


"Ahh, we're here, July" Knives said, as he topped a hill, and looked down on a crashed ship

"Is that the ship you saw Knives?" asked Vash

"Yes, its July alright... but..." Knives said slowly

"but what Knives?" Vash added

"Some humans survived there, and they are using all the plants" Knives replied

"What does that matter to you?" Vash added in a low voice, "I thought humans didn't matter to you"

"They matter when there are guards with guns, who wont let us just take the plants" Knives replied, with an arrogant tone

"What are you going to do then?" asked Vash

"Ill have to find another ship, then come back here later and get rid of these people" Knives sneered

"What do you mean, why are you so obsessed with killing them all?" Vash asked

"Because they are meaningless, insignificant parasites who need to be exterminated!" shouted Knives

"They deserve a chance!" Vash shouted back

"They had their chance, they had that chance on the planet they destroyed!" Knives shouted, even louder

"Then they deserve another chance!" Shouted Vash, in desperation

"Look Vash" Knives said calmer, "If you really feel so differently, why do you follow me everywhere?"

"You're my brother, and Rem told me to take care of you" Vash said, as a tear fell down his cheek

"There you go, bringing HER into it again, all she did was teach you to be weak" Knives sneered

"Sometimes you have to be weak to see the right choice" Vash replied

"You're a fool Vash" said Knives

"Then why don't you just leave me?" asked Vash

"First off, YOU are following ME, and second, you're my brother, and you're the only one on this planet that's worthy of being with me" Knives retorted

Vash and Knives picked up their bags, and began walking again, and just as they topped the next hill they saw a small camp...

"Hey there, I'm Danak, what are you two doing so far from the ship?" said the tall man who was walking up to them from the camp.
