Hey everybody. I just read on Aine of Knockaine's profile that she's not going to be updating for a while. That is bad. UPDATE ASAP!
Since one of the best stories is going to be down for a while, here is my feeble attempt at filling the fan fiction void. I hope you all enjoy.
As I lie in bed, broken, bloody and beaten, I am learning a new lesson: the true nature of superiority. And there is no one to teach it to me but you, Vash.
I finally snapped out of my overprotective zeal. You have a great act going. Really. You almost had me fooled, too. You're such a puzzle, you know...you act one way, but I can see your true being. I can see what you fear. I can see what you want to hide from others, from yourself, and especially from me.
Now don't you try to deny it. You've got those two spiders of yours wrapped around your little finger. How long can you go on ignoring them? They'll still take care of you. How far away can you run? They'll still find you. They serve you.
And only a superior being can make the choice not to kill. It's so unfair of you to hold these weak humans to your high ideals. They're not the same as you! You are not one of them, no matter how much you dumb yourself down and play the fool.
They could never compete…
But I digress. I've seen those guilty looks, that self-loathing glint in your eyes. It's not because you have finally taken a life or the death of Rem. It's because of something altogether different. It's because you know all I say is true. It's because you know I am a superior being…
And you just beat me.
