Hi every buddy! I hope ya'll like my new fic. If you want or don't want the little conversation at the beginning tell me. I have fun writing it but maybe you guys don't like it. I'll put it in this one just for a starter. K?

Vash: Am I in this one?

Sesshoumaru: I do believe you are

Me: Yup you are vash.

Vash: But what about my little angel?

Me: I'm in it too but in disguise. Let's see if you can guess who it is.

Sesshoumaru: Spare me the romantics! Just get to the Goddamn story

Me: *with sly grin* Did someone wake up on the wrong side of the bed? Let me help you ease your stresses *seduces him*

Sesshoumaru: Youkai ... blood... racing... can't resist

Vash: watch it! *Angrily*

I'll leave you guys hanging but here is the story

~* Chapter 1: Nightmares *~

The house was quiet. Everyone was asleep, including Vash. Little did the others know that Vash's slumber was not as peaceful as theirs.

He sat up strait and his eyes popped open. It was the same nightmare he'd been having for the past week or so. Less nightmare and more repressed memory. It was the day his brother took her away from him. Now many people would think that this 'her' as he talked about was Rem. No one knew the truth though.

The next morning, Vash was up earlier than normal. He was sitting on the porch watching the small town sleep. The sun started to rise and the wind gently blew over his saddened expressions. He remembered the dream and that fateful day.

~* FLASHBACK *~

"Vash, help me please!"

"Knives! Leave her alone! She has nothing to do with this!"

"Really now? Well now we know what you hold close, dear brother."

"Knives please, let her go!"

"No. I think I'll keep her with me for awhile."

That's when he was shot in the shoulder by Knives. The last thing he heard was her crying out to him as Knives picked her up and carried her away.

"Vash don't forget me!" and the jingling of bells fading in the distance was all he heard before he blacked-out.

~*End flashback*~

Meryl walked out and saw Vash sitting there all by himself. His face was sad and a tear was falling down his cheek. She knew what he was thinking of. It was always the same thing... her. She didn't know who she was but Vash had obviously loved her very much. She walked over and sat next to him on the porch. He watched as she stretched, yawned, and rubbed the sleep from her eyes.

Meryl stared out into the little town's streets. Nothing stirred but the dirt and dust.

In a barely audible voice she whispered, "Who was she, Vash?"

He kept looking forward but raised his head a little. He sighed and decided to tell her the truth. It was something he had not talked about to anyone in almost 60 years.

"I loved her very much. She was a plant like me. We were like two peas in a pod. Then one day, Knives decided to toy with my thoughts and emotions. He stole her away from me. The last thing she said to me was 'Vash, don't forget me.' And I never have."

Vash's eyes were very sad and lonely. She dropped her head and said, "Is that what you dream about every night?" Vash looked at her shocked. He looked down and sighed. "Yes."

Meryl had heard Vash mumbling in his sleep lately. Inaudible things like "Knives!" or "Let her go!"

"I told her that I'd never lose her... but I failed. I don't know what Knives did to her. Whether she's dead or alive. She's all I think about. I see her face in the clouds. I hear the bells in the wind."

"Bells?" Meryl was confused now. What did bells have anything to do with it?

"Her bells. Two little silver bells that jingled whenever she moved. I loved those bells." His mind slipped from their conversation to when he first met her.

~* Flashback *~

"Excuse me ma'am but do I know you?"

"I don't think so, why?"

"I've been looking for a place to stay."

"Oh well I have a room at the hotel. Do you wan to stay for the night?"

"You're very trusting and kind."

"Thank you, I think? So how old are you?"

"Well honestly? About 124."

"Wow! You're a Plant? Me too!"

"Really? How old are you?"

"Well...123. Give or take a few years."

"Cool! I'm Vash by the way."

"I'm......"

~* End flashback *~

"I always hoped that I would find her one day but..." Vash trailed off and tears were welling up in his eyes.

"It's all right, Vash. You don't have to tell me anymore." Meryl got up and looked down the ever-busying street. "I'm going to go get some doughnuts. You want some?"

Vash nodded and she got her purse and left.

Vash walked down the street to the very edge of the town. "I will find you one day. I promised you that ten years ago. Do you remember? I do. And I will never forget."
