Well this chapter is kind of strange but then again, I was once again watching Family Guy and had to stop half way through this chapter so that's why the end kind of got screwed up… Yeah
FAN ART- If you guys want to start drawing scenes from my stories I'll post them on my site (send them through email). I think it'd be really awesome to see what you guys think of when you read my stories. One of the reasons I don't use much detail is since I leave most of it up to you (the other reason I don't use much of it is because there's only so much I can think of -_-^).
PLEASE REVIEW!!!
Unbreakable
Chapter 13
"So where's Jasmine?"
"Caribbean, on a three month vacation."
"And she didn't tell us?"
"Had to leave right away."
"And Inuyasha?"
"Went back to his time and I have a feeling we won't be seeing him much anymore."
"And Vix?"
Kurama's fur bristled and he hissed, "I haven't seen her in the past two weeks but Katakana is missing as well."
"You think she ran out on you?" Vash asked as he sipped a martini, something he wasn't overly fond of.
"Could be," the fox demon replied not wanting to talk about it.
"What about Thomas?"
"Went with Jasmine."
"Seen Kat lately?"
"On the roof. Wouldn't bug her though. She really misses Tanya and Kage… We all do."
"What about Sakura?" Vash wondered where his daughter had wandered off to.
"I think she really misses Kage. I mean really misses him," Kurama said.
Vash nodded but decided now was not the time to talk to his daughter. Rei yawned at Vash's feet and rolled over to get her back to the fire. The cushion she was laying on shifted as the stuffing moved from side to side to balance the wolf's weight.
Vash yawned having seen Rei do it and decided he was going to go get some sleep. Then he realized that his room had been blown up. He cursed silently and just ended up staying where he was on the massive fluffy blood-red living room couch.
As soon as he closed his eyes he was asleep.
^_^
"The stars are beautiful," Kenshin commented.
Kat smiled a little, "They sure are."
She had her head resting on his shoulder and both of them were gazing at the clear night sky. Kenshin had his arm around Kat, his golden eyes giving off an eerie glow. She had ceased crying and he was trying his hardest to keep her mind off her dwindling numbers of friends. His hair was still down and the wind licked at it playfully letting it mix with Kat's. Her own golden eyes gave off the same strange glow which was the effect the moonlight had on them.
Kat sighed, "How much time do you think you have left here?"
Kenshin flicked his gaze down to her. His eyes reflected sorrow, sympathy, regret and remorse. Kat shivered under his haunting gaze.
"To tell you the truth," he sighed, "I could be swept away at any moment. I really have no clue when I have to leave or even if I have to…"
He trailed off when Kat wrapped her arms around him and buried her face in his shirt, "I've missed you so much! You can't leave! You just got back…"
She paused when she felt him hug her back just as tight, something he rarely did. "I don't want to leave either and I won't as long as I have the freedom to stay."
Kat smiled as best as she could. It came out lopsided but it was enough to get the message across.
"Come on, let's go back inside," Kenshin said as he stood. He helped Kat up and wrapped his arms around her waist for support.
They headed inside and shut the heavy charred soundproof door behind them. Kat yawned as she walked down the large red carpeted stairway. Her free hand slid down the gold (plated or solid, she couldn't remember) banister while the other one remained locked securely over Kenshin's arm. They were passing through the living room when Kat spotted Vash sleeping fitfully.
He was muttering slightly and his hands kept twitching. One leg as well as an arm dangled over the couch onto Rei, who was sleeping peacefully. Kat slipped free of Kenshin's grasp and kissed Vash lightly on the forehead. The blonde quieted slightly in his sleep and stopped muttering. Kenshin took a step closer and as soon as he moved Vash's eyes shot open. In less than a second, both of them had maneuvered around Kat and had their weapons drawn.
She had blinked at the second they had moved and had missed the weapon drawing. Now both men stood off to the side, Kenshin with his sword at Vash's throat and Vash with his gun at Kenshin's head. Vash's glare was fiercer and unfocused from being forced out of his slightly drunken sleep. Kenshin was uncertain of what was going on but he wasn't taking any chances.
"You're back?" Vash asked as more of a statement.
"Here to stay as long as I can," Kenshin confirmed.
Vash scoffed something he never did unless he was around his brother and clicked the safety off his gun.
"Vash? WHAT ARE YOU DOIN-?!" Kat's yell was cut short by the sound of Vash's gun unloading.
Her expression swiftly changed to an array as emotions battled for position of her features.
Something behind her exploded into dust and flakes. Kat turned around to see that the granite floor behind them had acquired a large hole. She swiftly looked back to see Kenshin with his sword extended, having completed its deathly arc. The sword's blade rested in the air about six inches away from Vash's neck.
The blonde stared at the blade for a moment before his eyes bulged, "SCARY!"
"Y-you're not dead?" Kat asked a bit bewildered.
Vash rubbed his neck while Kenshin examined his head. "Nope," they answered.
"Good… BECAUSE I'M GONNA KILL YOU!" Kat roared.
The two men ignored her and Vash grabbed for Kenshin's sword. His hand passed through it.
Kat came over and lightly touched Kenshin's arm just as Vash brought his fist down on the red head. He had expected it to go through but he hit skill. Both cursed loudly, another thing they didn't do often, and glared at each other. Kat moved away and watched as Kenshin made to hit Vash with the blunt side of his sword. It passed through him and Vash twitched.
Kat watched confused.
Rei sat up having been awoken from her sleep. Kenshin can only interact with living things so long as he's toughing Kat... now shut the hell up!
All eyes darted to the wolf.
Rei ignored them and left the room to join Sakura. They watched as Rei trotted off down the hall with her wolf's bicycling tireless jog.
Kat coughed to catch their attention, "Our room's been blown up, all the guest rooms are being used and I'm not sleeping on the floor. Any ideas?"
Kenshin sheathed his sword and Vash placed his gun back into its holster.
"Isn't there a couch that opens up?" Vash asked.
"There is in the billiard room…" Kat said the first place that popped into her head.
The two guys stared at her thinking how odd it would to sleep in a room reeking of smoke.
"You have a better idea?" she said catching their expressions.
"We could borrow that tent in the garage."
"Or sleep on the roof."
"In the car?"
"On this couch?"
"In Vix's or Jasmine's rooms?"
"Kick Kurama out of his room?"
"Get a room at a hotel?"
"Get Rei to take us back to the hut."
"The secret room behind the bookcase."
"The tree house."
"There are futons in the cupboard."
"Oh, what about the attic?"
"Or the empty pool house."
"The other secret room with the door behind the janitor's closet."
"No, Vix keeps all her exotic pets in there…"
"And you would know this because?"
"I was bit by her armadillo."
"They have no teeth…"
"Oh wait… That was a dream… Or was it?"
"I'm leaving now…" Kat excused herself while the two psychos had their 'fun.' She decided that she'd just grab the couch in the attic. Kat was half way up the marbled stairs of the attic when she began to wonder what the hell the two had been blabbering about.
'What do I care? Freaks…'
(A/N: I kinds wanted the reunion to be a little more formal but this was the best I could come up with at the moment… I could rewrite it… In a few years… PLEASE REVIEW!!!)
