(A/N: Thank you! I appreciate all the wonderful reviews! This chapter is a bit short, like a really long drabble of sorts…)
This chapter is especially…silly.

Chapter 3: "Musical Interlude"
…
…
Knives took a sip of his drink and sat it down on his large table. He glanced around the large open room that compromised the dinning hall. In front of him, at two large lengthwise tables, his minions sat.
To his left sat Chapel, Monev, Dominique, E.G. Mine, and Rei Dei—as well as Zazie and Midvalley. On the right was Gray—who hogged most of the table—and Hoppered, along with Caine and Legato. Leonoff was on the loo.
They were eyeing Knives intently.
"So, did you get all that then?" Knives addressed them.
"Eternal pain…suffering…Vash the Stampede…doom…pain…naughty things," several of them chimed in, "I think we've gotten the gist of it." They nodded.
Knives smirked and got up from his table, "Good. Good."
The Gung-Ho-Guns stood up as Knives walked to the exit. Knives stopped in the doorway and turned around.
"Well, then, I do say I think this meeting's adjourned!" Knives said right before he left and shut the door.
…
…
"Is…he gone?"
…
"…I think he is!"
…
…
"Alright!" Midvalley exclaimed as he suddenly jumped upon the table, his feet clanking plates of food, and started to play on his saxophone.
Suddenly, ALL of the Gung-Ho-Guns—minus Leonoff who was otherwise occupied on the loo—jumped upon the tables and began to…sing? And dance!
"We're the Gung-Ho-Guns assassins,
We'll give your ass a blastin'.
We do killin' sprees in time for tea and we don't get paid nothin',
We're feared 'round here on Gunsmoke,
We love to play and slay and sauté folks."
Legato locked arms with Dominique the Cyclops and spun around. Then, Zazie, Caine, E.G. and Rei Dei locked elbows down the line and kicked their feet in the air. Chapel began to juggle green apples. Food was being tossed everywhere. And Hoppered, well…hopped…
"We're the Gung-Ho-Guns assassins,
Our skills are beyond sur-passin'.
To earn the rent we do assignments that involve blood a-spill-in',
We're Knives' minions on Gunsmoke,
If we fail he'll give us quite a choke."
Gray began to clap. And, Leonoff finally came in on the fun. Then, Monev started doing cartwheels. Meanwhile, Midvalley observed the utter mayhem, while he continued to play. Suddenly, Dominique began a striptease, and Rei Dei decided to join her. Then, at the others' behest, Legato began to chug a carton of ice-cream…
"In battle we're rough and dashin',
Vi-scous-ly un-fal-ter-in'.
Between our quests we have a rest and take interpretive dancin'."
The prancing about continued as the Gung-Ho-Guns formed a conga line. Meanwhile, Legato finished up the ice-cream and started on the hot dogs. Leonoff and Dominique started running about and doing back-flips. Also, Hoppered hopped some more as the tune on Midvalley's saxophone slowed down…
"It's an exciting life on Gunsmoke…" the Gung-Ho-Guns sang, when suddenly—
"Shut up or you'll find a gun down your throats!" Knives shouted as he burst through the door, giving them an ill look.

(Of this particular tale)
Hehe. More silliness next time!
Review, Please, Thanks!
Disclaimer: The basis of this chapter is that it is a parody of the scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail with the dancing/singing Knights of the Round Table. The stuff in bold is to be sung to the tune of that song.
Note: loo means toilet
