Ripper: well this is something I have never seen before, Vash, Legato, knives…∫all in love! Oh my goodness now that is new.
Well this will be a yaoi story so if you don't like then don't read. I don't own Trigun or any of the characters so pleas don't sue. Also, I don't have some one too proof read this so if there are grammar errors or spelling errors give me a break, I live in a place where yaoi is not exactly looked upon with a smile, but if there is some one who would like the job as editor I would appreciate it.
ch1. Awakening
It's dark
He thought the first thought in a while.
Why is it dark?
The first question:
Where am I? Who am I? What is my purpose?
So many questions in such a short amount of time. His mind began to race with random, irrelevant thoughts: the sky is blue, the ground in red, its hot…finally it stopped as suddenly as it bean. Then there was sound. A low muffled sound could be heard.
What is it?
He thought. Then there was light, a light so bright it hurt his eyes very much. It took a moment to realize his eyes where open and the light was from the outside. Once his eyes where adjusted the brightness he took a look around while his mind named off random objects in the room.
Table, chair, window, bed…
He wasn't sure why, but naming the objects gave him some sort of comfort. Then he heard the sound again, what was it? It sounded familiar, but from where? This time the sound was closer and he could make out two voices arguing over something. He looked at the door blankly and tried to listen to what they where saying.
"I'm telling you to forget it, he's never waking up!" The obviously louder one said. the other voice remained muffled so he couldn't hear what he said. He heard footsteps get closer and he was suddenly very afraid. The door creaked open and a man with blonde and black hair that was spike up with a glass of water in hand entered the room. He hadn't noticed his charge sitting up in bed but when he looked up from the floor he dropped his glass and it shattered to the floor.
"L-legato"
He whispered.
Is that my name?
"Knives!"
The blonde man shouted suddenly making legato jump. Legato heard another pair of footsteps but these ones where heavy and slow. Soon another blonde man entered the room, he looked like the first but had shorter hair and it was lighter in color with a black streak through it.
"Vash what's wrong-"
He stopped mid sentence when he saw legato frightened stare.
"H-he woke up? But how?"
He breathed. He thought legato was too far gone to ever wake up. Legato was very confused and the way these two where looking at him did not help. How did they know him, they looked familiar but he just couldn't place them to any thing. 'Vash' as the other called him approached him slowly to not set him off. Legato looked at Vash with fear as he kneeled down next to him. Vash gave him a confused look that didn't make him feel any better.
"H-how are you feeling?"
He asked gently. How was he feeling? Well he wasn't sure. He shrugged in response and gave Vash another lost, scared look. Vash stared for a moment and pondered why legato was acting this way, and then a thought struck him.
"Legato?"
Legato looked at him.
"Do-do you know who I am"
Legato thought about it for a moment then looked back to Vash and shook a 'no' to the question.
"Well…do you know who he is?"
Vash said pointing to knives in the doorway, another 'no'
"o.k... do you know who you are?"
Legato looked like on the verge of tears and mouthed 'no' . A tear fell from legatos golden eyes and landed on the sheets below. Vash was suddenly over come with pity for the blue haired man. Without really thinking he sat down next to the weeping young man and pulled his head to his chest to let legato cry. Knives looked on in disgust, he limped over as fast as he could and shoved Vash back, he landed on the floor with a hard 'thud', knives grabbed legatos face roughly and forced him to look at him. Legato whimpered and tried to pull a way but knives shook him to holding still. Knives closed his eyes and began to probe legatos mind none-to-gently. Legato jerked when he felt the invasion into his mind, legato could only cry helplessly.
"Knives leave him alone, you're hurting him!"
Vash shouted but knives ignored him and kept going. When knives reached a wall in legatos mind he pushed against it. Legatos eyes snapped open and with all his might he pushed back so hard that knives fell back to the ground and legato clasped on the bed.
"Knives what happened?"
Vash asked helping his brother up.
"He pushed me! That little bastard pushed me!"
Knives said sounding like a 10 year old on an elementary school play ground.
"Well you deserved it! How would you feel if you had no clue what was going on and some stranger grabbed your face and did weir things to you?"
Vash said sounding a bit peeved at knives rude ness. Knives only scowled at Vash then legato. Vash made his way back to legato who tried to move a way. Vash touched legatos flushed cheek making him flinch.
"Don't worry; he won't do that again, would you like some water?"
Legato nodded weakly. Vash took knives a way to get some water. Once they where in the kitchen knives spoke up.
"He's telling the truth, he really has no memories at all, his mind looks like a jigsaw puzzle; one of the big ones we use to do as a kid, he only knows really basic stuff."
"I never thought he was lying in the first place"
Vash said with clipped words.
"Why do you keep defending him? Don't you know how many people he's killed? Don't you even care?"
"Do you?"
Knives didn't say any thing.
" I believe every one deserves a second chance knives, I knew he was supposed to like when he survived my shot to his head, and now I'm even more sure that can do things better."
Vash said with a smile.
"You have too much faith in mortals, what happens when he gets him memories back? What makes you think he will be the way you want"
"I don't"
Knives grunted and looked out the window. Vash sighed and took the glass back to legato, he was surprised to see legato sitting up in bed, obviously waiting for Vash to come back. A look of relief passed over legatos face to see it was only Vash.
"Here you go"
Vash said brightly and handed him the water. Legato took it and began to drink it as fast as he could, as if he was afraid he would loose it. A little water went down the wrong pipe and sent legato into a fit a coughs.
"Hey slow down"
Vash said patting legato back a little. Legato gave him a guilty look.
"Its O.K. but go a little slower, you don't want to choke."
Vash said with a smile. Legato smiled in response. Vash was slightly taken aback by it; he had never seen legato with a real smile before, it looked nice all the same. When legato was finished he handed the glass back to Vash.
"I bet you're hungry"
Vash said as legatos stomach gave a loud growl. Legato blushed.
He looks really adorable like that…woah! Wait a minuet, where did that thought come from?
Vash must have had a distressed look on his face because legato was looking at him like he did something wrong. Vash smiled and ruffled his hair making legato beam.
"I'll get you some food"
Vash made to leave but legato grabbed his wrist.
"I-I w-wa-want?"
"What? What do you want?"
"I-ice c-cream…pleas."
Ch1 end
Ripper: well how was it? Pleas review, but be nice, remember I don't have a proofreader so I can only do the best I can with Microsoft word. If you have mean things to say don't bother, I told you twice that this is going to be a yaoi story, but I do like constructive criticism. Well tell me if I should continue this story or not.
