HEY!! Gomen about the long wait for this chapter.. NO I wasn't taking my sweet time with my never ending torturing with my friends… I swear I didn't push her off the ledge by those sharp rocks! ….well.. I didn't mean too…… J/K lol…
Well.. After doing this chapter I was like.. Whoa… Look at all da TYPO'S!! …So Hopefully I didn't miss any so I wouldn't get any threatening replies or people pointing out my mistakes ( Their really funny!!)… Remember that everyone makes a mistake once in a while… well.. For me its every time cause I dun really reread what I write.. Heh heh! ( I will now though!……….…Hopefully…^-._^-. )
Though I know I said before I like you to point out my mistakes…But please don't bother with the minor ones.
I Understand what a comma means and I do use them… Maybe just not all the times your eyes pick them out in my story where I don't put them, but I do. So please don't tell me like I don't know. I'm not trying to get on your case or anything but next time I'll look more closely to satisfy you need of telling me do I know what something is. Gomen for my inconvenience.
--' _ -- ;; ( I really didn't mean to not put them there!!)
Well anyway enough of my Gomen's.. This chapter is when some people are going to say… "BUT HE'S &%#$!!" or "NO WAY…Its not &*^!$#?!!" … so yeah.. it's a bit of shocker from here on… ^_^ heh heh..
HOPE YOU ENJOY!!!

~Chapter 9~
Meryl was better the next morning. Her strength returned to her body and yet.. She even felt refreshed. From what? Either Vash's lovely company last night or the fact her body was working over time. Meryl and Vash woke up together holding each other in their arms snuggled close under the blankets. Vash slid his hands down the side of her hair enjoying the softness of her cool hair against his palm. He kissed Meryl's forehead. Meryl smiled warmly at him. She didn't have the guts to say 'good morning'. She was still embarrassed that she laid with Vash through the night not even minding she fainted just that morning. Yet she was happy. To finally embrace Vash more then she ever wanted. She knew Vash felt the same. While she was falling asleep she could still hear him whispering soft wishes in her ear making her feel comfortable and relaxed. Though. It wasn't like she was already.
After a while they decided it was time to get out before someone would get suspicious. Besides. Millie was leaving today and Meryl didn't have the time to spend with her like she planned. It was also a fact that she was going to discus what happened to her the other day. It was stuck in the back of her mind mostly at all times when she regained consciousness. They quickly put on their clothes and joined breakfast with Millie.
Abruptly Meryl just began to confess what happened when she walked into Vash's room while they were eating.
"Yesterday", she started catching everyone at the tables attention. Millie, Vash and Jake stared at her.
"I left the streets leaving Millie and Vash without thinking… Gomen.." she said bowing her head.
"Don't worry about it" Vash said in a soft tone, "Please…If you can…Continue"
"DON'T RUSH HER BOY!" the old man yelled out. Hitting Vash in his head with his cane.
"IM NOT RUSHING HER OLD MAN!" Vash snapped rubbing his head.
"OLD MAN?!" snapped back Jake.
"Shh!! Please you two calm down! Meryl's still talking" Millie said smiling wearily.
Meryl smiled. They almost resembled brothers in a way. She thought back to what she was saying, "I started to feel drowsy so I thought It would be best to lay down for a while.. When I reached my room after seeing Mr. Jake, I decided what I was doing was wrong that I shouldn't have ever left Millie. When I turned, I saw something move under Vash's door. I knew it was neither of you so I quickly busted into the room. There.. In front of me… Was a tall man.. Dressed in black …I cant remember clearly what his face looked liked but I remember he had a scar on his temple. It was almost like a bullet hole. Then the man came after me. I didn't really think there was someone in Vash's room, so I wasn't prepared. He grabbed my shoulders and threw me down. Then I think I passed out from there. Though I do remember him saying something…" she paused thinking back. Her lips moved slowly as she lipped the man's words in her head just before she was going to tell them.
Vash read her lips, "My master is waiting for you… Vash the Stampede" he said aloud.
Both Millie and Jake turned to Vash. Vash kept his eyes on Meryl. She knew who the man was talking about. They both knew. Since the incident back in the last town, he thought he knew the voice that came from the android. Though he didn't believe it. The voice was someone that was beyond anywhere now. Supposedly dead by Wolfwood. But if he's dead… Maybe this guy was different. A hunter maybe. But. He said master. There was only one person he heard of when they referred him as master. Knives. Was Knives after Vash again? When will he ever give up?!.. Or is it someone else…
Meryl noticed the deep impact of fear and sorrow rise in Vash's eyes.
'It is never over for you.. Is it Vash?' Meryl thought.
Millie turned to Meryl. She had that same expression when she gets worried or distant in her thoughts. She heard people from outside start yelling and cheering as the bus rode up to the middle of the square. A man busted in the room, "The Bus is here!!". They all got up without thinking and helped Millie with her possessions bringing them to the small bus outside. Millie quickly checked her pockets for her ticket and pulled it out making sure she wouldn't lose it in the last minute. After loading her things onto the top of the bus Millie turned to them all. Meryl, Vash and her new friend Jake. They were all smiling at her. Staring at Meryl they embraced each other goodbye.
"You better write me once you get there.." Meryl said with tears streaming down her face.
"Don't leave this town without tell me Sempai!!" Millie said already crying on her shoulder.
Vash Smirked. They looked like they were never going to see each other again. They both broke their hug and smiled.
"Oh!! Mister Vash You better keep your promise!" Millie reminded Vash. Vash smiled. "What promise?!" Meryl interrupted not knowing what they were talking about. Mille smiled warningly to Vash. Yeah.. He knew what she meant. It was actually a promise he made with Meryl last night. He said he'd never leave her and he promised Millie he'd protect Meryl while she was gone. It wasn't something he was going to forget and he thought Millie already knew. 'I guess she's just a bit too worried about leaving her sempai!' Vash thought grinning with a bit of a chuckle. Being stuck protecting someone and watching your back isn't going to be easy… Was it ever?!.
He noticed Meryl was glaring at him wanting to know what they were talking about. He started up is daily goofy laugh. "DON'T GIVE ME THAT CRAP I WANNA KNOW!!" Meryl said pouncing onto Vash pulling at his ear in a big dust ball.
Millie began to laugh at Vash's corny wailing. Her heart was already set for leaving but she wasn't sure if her full heart was with her. She was leaving two big important people in her life and she didn't want to let them go. Even If it wasn't forever. She felt more tears build up in her eyes. Meryl stopped biting on Vash's hair when she caught the glimpse of tears falling into the sand in front of Millie as she looked down into the sand under her ( Aren't they just a lovely couple?! .O_O. ).
Just before stepping up to her again, Vash slipped over to Millie and hugged her. Millie looked up in shock. "Don't make it harder on yourself… Don't worry… If something happens we'll be sure to inform you.. Ok?" Vash said in a soft whisper by her ear. With a light blush on her cheeks Millie nodded. After a short while Millie thanked Jake for letting them stay at his hotel and hugged him too. (She's just full of hugs ain't she?! ^__^ ).
Millie ran over to the bus just before the driver was about to close the door's. After the man checked her ticket and collected her money she climbed onto the some-what-filled-bus and sat next to the window waving at them. Vash and Jake waved back. Meryl stood next to them staring at her with a weary smile with tears streaming down her face. Millie smiled with tears in her eyes too. The bus started and the driver pulled the clutch making a scratchy sound come from the riggedy bus. Millie pressed her hand against the window. Meryl lifted her hand up trembling a bit. 'See you later' Meryl lipped to her. Millie did the same.
The then bus rode off out the town into the sandy plain…
