Chapter 7... the one after 6
Oh, I don't own Vash, Knives, or even their hair... :-(
ANYWHO... Thanks to my faithfull reviewers, both of you... Lucid03Days, and Sephiroth Ripley
Ok, I meant to add some of Danak's history in last chapter, but I didn't... I might do it this chapter, just depends on how this chapter goes... (Though I know what is going to happen, I don't know exactly how until I write it usually)
Chapter x, where 3x-242x-17 (chapter 7)
"Rem saved you?" asked Danak.
"Rem saved you too" added Vash.
"What?"
"She saved all of us" replied Vash
"When the guidance computers failed?" asked Danak
"Yes" replied Vash
Danak sat in silence for a minute, "You never got to say goodbye did you?"
"What?" asked Vash, kind of surprised by the question.
"You never said goodbye, did you?"
"What difference does that make?" asked Knives
"A lot, you might be surprised." Danak replied
"How would you know?" asked Vash
"A friend of mine died, back on earth"
"Who?"
"His name was Jack Hadreo, he was killed in the Marines, during the last war" (I was tempted to say, "His name was Jabari, and he was mauled by a werewolf" ... inside joke)
"Oh, I take it you didn't say goodbye either?" asked Vash
"No, I didn't."
"So, what did you do?" asked Knives, actually interested
"Me and some of his friends held a funeral, and said goodbye there" Danak replied
"But if he was dead, how could you say goodbye?" asked Knives
"Death is not the end, every person has a soul"
"What about plants?" asked Vash
"I can't imagine how it could be otherwise"
"What do you mean?" asked Knives
"Ok Knives, what makes you, you?" asked Danak
"Well, I'm me, I have short hair, kinda rough, and I'm a plant" replied Knives
"That's not you, if you shaved your head, you would still be Knives, and it dosen't matter that you're a plant, not for who you are, YOU are you, not your face, arms, legs, or hair" Danak replied
"So, your saying that I have a soul, because of how I ACT?" Knives replied
"No, you act, because you have a soul, I have seen in your eyes, I have seen a selflessness that defies all logic, that can only come from God"
"Are you sure you're talking about KNIVES?" asked Vash, trying unsuccessfully to sound un-offensive.
"Yea, I'm talking about Knives." Danak replied.
a silence followed, with Vash staring at Knives for a portion of it. When Knives decided to break the silence.
"So... I don't suppose you would know if there are any nearby ships that crashed would you?"
"Well, I heard that theres one, just a few day's walk from here" Danak replied
"Really? Is it another human ship? Or is it a plant ship?" Knives asked quickly.
"Im not sure, but I think it was a plant ship" Danak replied
"Really? That might be the ship me and Vash were looking for" Knives said, with a small amount of excitement.
"Yea, it might very well be"
"Do you need a guide?" Danak finally said, smiling.
"Uhh, preferably" Vash and Knives said in unison
Ok, I would have more, but I probobly wouldn't get a good chance to upload it before... a few days... and I might have chapter 8 up then.
PLEASE R/R!!! (thanks! :-)
P.S. I MANAGED TO GET SOME HISTORY IN (yay! I know you are happy, even though you think you arent)
