Well so here it goes, my disgraceful attempted continuation of the only show I've seen that I felt compelled to do so. I browsed some of the stories that have been posted on and I am unsatisfied. No one captured the character personalities the right way, so I'll take a shot at it.
Disclaimer: I do not own the Vandread anything, not even a dvd. But all the other stuff not seen or heard of in the show. I will tell you what things at the end of each one.
#1: Spiral Flare
The ship bound for Tarrak entered the asteroid belt surrounding the orange plant. The inhabitants of this particular ship were an odd assortment of people to say the least. A tall man with dark brownish-purple hair, partially obscuring his face sat down at the radar station on the right side of the ship, his white coat swept under his legs. He began typing rapidly at the keypad in front of him.
Seated at the system-ops station across form him, was a bald man in Tarrak's oddly flashy military fatigues, his head reflecting the light coming from the viewing port in the ships front.
Further back inside the ship, there were several rather comfortable looking seats of black leather in two rows of five two-seater couches with an isle in-between and to each side. In the front row, situated in the seat on the right side was a small egg shamed device with a large black screen recessed in the front. A tissue box was on the seat next to it, and used tissues were littered all around it.
In the back of the right hand row was a boy with slightly spiky blue hair, being held out of his eyes with a bandana and white linen medical wrap, his arm in a cast, fast asleep. Next to him, head resting on his shoulder was a red head with an odd sleeved vest over a black top. The lightly dozing girl stirred slightly, adjusting herself into a more comfortable position.
A long gray mane of hair was hanging over the back of the pilot's seat. In the seat was a woman in a blush green outfit, a whip tied to a loop in her belt. The communications console flared and a message appeared on it. "You are cleared to land at station 07 in the eastern sector of City 107, proceed when ready." And a landing code scrolled underneath it.
The ship nosed up, the landing extended, and the ship settled lightly into the bay. The ramp wheeled up to the side door as it opened with a pressure-releasing hiss. B.C. steeped out and descended the ramp.
"Ahh, Commander, Good to see you." said a man in a Tarrak military uniform. "I am Corporal Vinn, and I shall be escorting you and your crew to your quarters."
"So you're the one that the Higher ups sent to… Watch us?" Duero remarked, in a clam, level voice.
'Well, for lack of a better word, ye…." He trailed of at that point, backing up a bit. "What?" B.C. inquired.
"I… I… was not-t made aware that… that a real woman would be accompanying you for your task." He said with mingled fear and confusion lining his voice.
"Yes…" B.C. said as the fact the Dita had just emerged from the ship,"… well it was a last minute crew edition, but it will help the men get over the initial shock."
"I… I Guess, we should go, the shuttle is waiting and you are to begin the interview at 9:00 tomorrow morning.
"Wow, this place is nice!" Exclaimed Hibiki, "but there are only 4 rooms." "Yes, because there were only going to be the 4 men and Pyoro originally, so it looks like you wont be bunking with Pyoro alone now." B.C. explained exasperatedly. "WHAT!" Exploded Hibiki, "I'M NOT SHARING A ROOM WIT THAT THING!" "Calm down, no need to yell." Bart said, and Dita looked rather put out at the outburst. " YOU TAKE IT THEN!" he yelled angrily.
"NO!" Yelled Bart, Pyoro, and Dita together.
"The room arrangements are final!" B.C. Said dangerously.
"Aww, damn it..." Hibiki said defeated, and marched, head drooped into the room on the far right.
"Well, "I'll see you all in the morning." said Bart, a nervous excitement in his voice, and he walked in the second room from the left.
"And I as well." Remarked Duero, his head buried in a medical book form the colonization era storage room from the 'Nirvana' and walked into the room between Bart's and Hibiki's. Without another word B.C. entered the room farthest to the left. Dita strode to Hibiki's still open door and stood there, contemplating. Her thoughts were interrupted when Hibiki said impatiently
"Are you going to just stand there all night, or what?" At this, she came in, Pyoro trailing behind shutting the door.
The room was a nice than standard basic hotel room, with a rather disgustingly colored carpet, a doublewide bed, with the same color as the carpet bed spread and curtains that matched. A square table sat in one corner of the room, with a pellet dispenser on top with a holder with bowls on one side and spoons on the other. In front of that was a larger round table dominated with a centerpiece of orange crystal in a twisting column of rising flame It was the Spiral Flare, The simple of the conquest of the Tarrak Empire. For chairs surrounded the table, the back of each emblazoned with the eye of Tarrak. There was also a large bathroom with a shower bathtub combo, a sink filled with soaps and sanitizes, and a toilet with toilet paper dispenser nailed to the wall. An ugly bathmat was in the center of linoleum floor in the same ugly material as the carpet.
Dita was nervous, standing near the door, wondering why Hibiki was mad at her, because, after all, he had invited her to join him on the job.
"I'm going to take A shower." Hibiki announced leaping off of the bed, which he had already claimed the right side of, and marched into the bathroom, not quite slamming the door. The lock clicked and a few seconds later water could be heard running. Dita sat at the round table and just thought about what she could have done to upset him so. Pyoro just sat in a corner, saying something about Pyoro 2, but Dita was to preoccupied to have heard.
10 minutes later, the water stopped, and a few moments later Hibiki came out in his nightclothes.
"Will you shut up with that sniveling about that baby!" Hibiki said to Pyoro angrily. "Because if you don't, I will shut you down until we get back." Pyoro glared at him contemtuously, and floated into the bathroom and shut the door and the lock clicked. "Mr. Alien?" Dita said tentatively.
"What is it?" He shot back, which caused her to flinch.
"I… I'm sorry that I … I am making you mad."
"What the hell are you talking about?" He snapped.
"Well, … wha… what you said…" But Hibiki cut her of.
"I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about that thing in there." He stated, gesturing to the bathroom door. This caught her off guard. "I have some extra bed clothes if you'd like to borrow them, because, you know, you didn't have time to pack." Her eyes lit up at this, and agreed ant once. After persuading Pyoro to let her into the bathroom, she changed and came back out, to find Hibiki had already started to get into the bed. Dita joined him, on the opposite side of the bed. They exchanged good nights, although Hibiki's was rather uncomfortable, and switched off the lights, just as the clock struck 11:00.
The end of the first chapter.
Well it sucks, and I don't know much, but oh well.
So I do own: Corporal Vinn, Station 07, City 107, and the hotel complex.
So, I hope you liked it, and, let me know.
I will be looking for reader's comments, suggestions, and your charters, over the run of my stories. You can reach me at myspace, as death in tight pants.
