The Bumbling Bozo's Back in Action
Vash, Knives, Millie and Meryl pulled up by the crash site in Millie's new car. The four of them got out, then made their way over to the crowd of people. Everyone back away when they caught sight of Knives beside his brother, then almost panicked when Vash left his side. The Humanoid Typhoon made his way over to the group of sheriffs then placed his hands on one of their shoulders with a wide grin on his face.
"Sooo. I hear there's a woman inside the ship, sheriff!"
"There was, Mr. Stampede-She disappeared!" Vash's jaw dropped, then he groaned loudly, smacking his forehead.
"If you're looking for me, I'm right here!" an angry feminine voice called out from behind. Everyone turned around to see a caramel-skinned woman holding a man in a headlock over the edge of the top of a house. She had on a black trench coat with a matching hat, a slightly shredded black mini-skirt and a red top that revealed her belly button and some of her chest.
"Hey! Put him down!" Vash yelled as he ran towards the house. He skidded to a stop under her, trying to take a glance up her skirt. "Ooooh."
"Why you!" The woman kicked a rock off the building, nailing the plant dead in the forehead. Vash yelped, then rubbed his forehead as he shook his fist at her. "I'm gonna make you pay for that!"
The woman tossed her red hair out of her eyes, and then looked down at the Humanoid Typhoon with her piercing hazel eyes.
"You pervert! I have every right to kill this man now!"
"No no no! Why don't you just set him down gently and we just forget the whole thing and call it even?"
"Why should I follow your rules, hm?"
"Well. you're an awfully beautiful woman and I'm sure we could settle our differences through, say. a moonlight dinner or something of that matter?" Everyone stared at Vash in disbelief, and then anime fell. An irritation mark appeared above Knives's brow as he stomped over to his brother, grabbed his hair, and then yanked it.
"Owww! Knives!"
"Shut up, you little baby! Just what the hell are you doing?"
"What's it look like I'm doing?!" The woman only shook her head, then tapped her chin as she tilted her head to the side.
"Judging by your flirting habits. I take it you're the Humanoid Typhoon, Mister Vash the Stampede, correct?"
"Yes m'am!"
"Well then I must say, I've always admired you," she began as sly grin spread across her face, "However, let's see if you're as good as the people of Gunsmoke say." With that, she let go of the man, letting him fall towards the ground below. Vash cursed, swiftly took out his gun, shot down the door of the house, and then winced when the man landed on it.
"Owww.that.hurt."
"Sorry!" The plant quickly looked up and saw the woman getting away, her tail waving in the air. "A tail.? Oh hell! Knives, you stay here-I'm going after the woman!" Without a last thought, the Stampede ran off, causing all the townspeople and sheriffs to turn their attention to his brother. Knives slowly looked back at them as he held his arms open, a crazy smile slowly appearing on his face.
"Hello.. Friends!"
Vash ran after the woman, holding his gun tight in his grasp. Before he knew it, a bullet flew right past him and scraped his shoulder, almost nailing him in the neck.
"Ow. she must be a pretty good gunwoman!"
"Pretty good? I'd say more than good, Mister Stampede." The blonde aimed his gun at her leg, then pulled the trigger. To his disbelief, she moved out the way quickly, only receiving a small scratch.
"You're just as good as me!"
"Yes, just as good." The two continued volleying shots back and forth, them both only getting minor scratches as they dodged each other's bullets. Vash growled as he started running faster, charging towards the woman. This is getting us absolutely nowhere!! With that thought in mind, the plant jumped towards the woman, putting his gun away before he out- stretched his arms.
"Yaaaaaaah!!!!" The woman slowly turned her head when she saw his shadow, then screamed when she saw him above her. Before she even had the chance to aim her gun or pick up speed, Vash had landed on her and had her pinned to the ground. She narrowed her eyes as she looked up at him, growling deep in her throat. Vash blinked as her hat came off, revealing her catlike ears, then grinned as he stared down at her.
"Hey there! Would ya mind telling me your name?"
"My name is none of your concern. Now get off of me!"
"Oh c'mon! You said that you admire me and you know my name! Now that's just a little bit unfair."
"Fine then. my name is Vashu."
"Vashu? Sounds a lot like my name."
"Yes, well, it's my lab name."
"Lab name? What do you mean?"
"I was an experiment. I was designed to be, well, an earthly female version of you. They were about to go deeper into the experimentation by making me look like you until I escaped."
"Heh, well your beauty mark is in the wrong spot, anyway," Vash commented, pointing to the dark mark on her chin. He smiled, then slowly began to get up as he pulled on her arm gently. "Well then, let's get going."
"Sorry, Vash." The Humanoid Typhoon got ready to reply until WHAM!! Her knee made contact with his "sacred spot", causing him to howl in pain as his eyes bulged out. Once he had fallen onto his side, Vashu stood up, smiled rather sympathetically, and then ran off.
Knives sat on the sofa across from his brother, who was laid back in the recliner-the Insurance girls had gone off to work, leaving the brothers in the Thompson Mansion.
"So, Vash. tell me about that woman. I couldn't get a got glimpse at her with those women in my way."
"Well, she's very beautiful-red hair that stopped at her shoulders, soft caramel skin and hazel eyes. She even had cat ears and a tail!"
"Interesting."
"Also, she told me that she's an escaped experiment from earth. She's an ace gunwoman and she goes by the name of Vashu."
"Vashu? Ace gunwoman? Does she-"
"I don't know if it goes as far as the Angel Arms but she can shoot and dodge bullets just as well as we can! She can even dodge MY bullets!"
"Then that would explain why her name is Vashu." Vash nodded, then turned around when Meryl and Millie came barging in.
"We have new orders," Meryl stated seriously. Millie smiled as she turned her attention to Knives.
"We're gonna be watching you just like we did Mister Vash!"
"WHAT?! But I haven't done ANYTHING!!!" the platinum blonde roared, jumping up. He looked at his twin deliriously, then pulled his hair. "Why didn't I just die?!" The gold blonde snickered, then picked up the phone when it rang. "Hello, this is the Thompson Residence. Vash the Stampede speaking!"
"I want to talk to Stryfe." the person on the other end replied flatly. The Humanoid Typhoon looked over at Meryl, then pointed to the phone, causing her to sigh. The blue-haired woman took the phone from him, put it to her ear, and then sighed yet again.
"Hello? Oh, hi Chief. Yes, Millions Knives is here.. No, he's not acting peculiar, sir. I don't think he's much of a threat anymore. Huh? Oh, he's been turned into a Cyborg and is programmed not to kill humans or harm Vash in any kind of way. He should be programmed not to do what?" Meryl sighed lowly, then groaned slightly. "Affirmative. I'll see if Vash can arrange it."
"What's going on?" Knives asked dryly, watching her hang up. The insurance woman shift her weight to one side, placed her hands on her hips, then frowned.
"You're not going to destroy anything are you?"
"Now why would I do something like that?"
"Because you're Millions Knives and you don't act as though you've changed a bit!"
"So? Some people can change if you give them the chance!" The woman grunted, then folded her arms as she turned away, closing her eyes.
"This is pointless. Look, my orders are to get you programmed not to destroy anything. So I suggest you keep that in mind."
"What.?! Now I'm like a damn puppet!" The blonde scowled, then grabbed the phone when it rang. "What do you want, bastard?"
"Mind your manners, Mr. Knives," the chief replied in a rather annoyed tone, "Now put Stryfe on the phone."
"No! You're gonna talk to ME!!"
"Fine then. Notify her that the woman from the crash site near Julycity is now in Felnarl."
"Okay, and?"
"She's killed eight people and has destroyed a fourth of the city. Now if you're a good boy-"
"Plant."
"Whatever. you will tell her this and maybe I'll let you off the hook. We need to put that woman under full surveillance. It'd be nice if your brother would help."
"Whatever." Knives hung up, then looked over at Vash. "Vashu's on the rampage, and the bastard from Bernardelli wants your help."
Meryl stepped out of the car, then watched as building after building began to fall. Vash got out also, then took off his shades as he began walking towards the place where the destruction was happening. Knives only leaned back in the car seat, kicking his feet up onto the passenger seat with Millie sitting beside him. "This will prove to be interesting. a woman with our abilities and she's not even a plant."
"I hope Mr. Vash doesn't harm the city while he's trying to catch her," Millie whispered lowly, eating some pudding. Meryl folded her arms, then grunted as she leaned against the car. "We'll see."
The Humanoid Typhoon held up his gun, aiming at the sky above, then pulled the trigger twice, causing everything and everyone to go silent.
"Miss Vashu, please step out of your hiding place where I can see you." The woman jumped down from a rooftop and landed infront of Vash, looking up at him.
"What do you want now? Playing hero again?"
"You've already killed eight people and destroyed a fourth of Felnarl city. I'd like it if you stopped where you are."
"Or what?" Vash quickly grabbed her arm, pulled her towards him, and then drew his gun to her temples.
"I know you're angry."
"What do you know about me being angry? Hm? Humans don't deserve anything."
"Humans deserve everything as much as you and I. Even though your life was ruined and humans did this to you, this is no way to take out your angry. No one has the right to take another's life. Besides," the plant whispered softly, "You're a human. No matter what alterations or modifications, you are still a human."
"No I am not! I'm not!"
"You were born a human. No matter the changes, you will always be a human. So please, stop where you are at once, so maybe. I can help you." He pulled his gun away and let go of her arm, slowly making his way over to Millie's car. The Humanoid Typhoon looked at the brunette, then get in the car.
"Well, I think I did my part here without any violence."
"But Mr. Vash," Millie began, "You didn't even pull your trigger or anything. You didn't even arrest Vashu."
"Oh well. I'm sure what I told her got through. So, let's gooo!" With that, he shut the door before the brown-haired woman pulled off, driving back to her home.
Vash, Knives, Millie and Meryl pulled up by the crash site in Millie's new car. The four of them got out, then made their way over to the crowd of people.
