Parings: Knives x Meryl Vash x Milly

(In Knives' P.O.V)

Remember when I said her chattering was awfully annoying to me. Well, I found in my inner conscience that this human wasn't as bad as I first thought about her talking to me.

I could see her, staring in my eyes with her unnatural colored orbs. Saying how grateful she found Vash. Even though in her point of view, and mine also, he is very annoying and hard to understand his way of thinking.

He be so idiotic when it coes to deep thinking, but at times his advice towards others and his therios can be so intelligent.

Her speaking about Vash wasn't grand. Her subjects she talked about were better when she spoke about her family and herself.

"Do you want anything, Knives?" she asked, interrupting her own sentence and my thoughts.

"No..." My voice was harsh from the lack of speaking.

"Oh...Okay." She nodded a bit, understanding that the fact I don't trust her with my supplies of survival in her hands.

"Please...human...Leave" I gasped out, my breathing hasn't quite healed yet. Meaning, breathing is a complicated thing to a accomplish. And trying to speak is even worse to accomplish as well.

"Okay, if you need anything. Just ask me." I didn't look, but I heard noises that gave me a message that she had left. With the stool slightly squeaking, the door opening with creaks, and shutting with a soft thud. All the noises were giving me a headache that might get worse from this sound deep in my mind.

Vash was speaking through the mind link we both were gifted with. Not meaning to though. Sometimes when he's in deep thought or he's upset about something he ends up accidently letting his sentences flow into our mind link. Giving all the info about his troubles or therios.

"~ Rem....~" I blink, why is he crying over that worthless pest again?

"~ Brother...~" I growled, his senses must have wakened from his own realm to meet with the rest of the world's realm which everyone has to share.

"~ B-Brother?~" His voice was still soft like he use to speak very time he cried. Like a child. Yet, to me, he is a helpless child who could never take care of himself even if he tried.

Which I have told him many times. Yet he never really seems to listen to my opinion. Even though, to me, it is fact that he can't care for himself and survive.

"~What are you crying about, you moron.~" I mock him the same time I ask such a simple question that even a monkey on experimental drugs that make the animal retarded could answer.

"~ I miss her...~"

I growl like a vicious dog."~Get over it, Vash!~"

He starts to sniffle a bit. I bet you millions that he is about to cry once more over her loss.

"~I-I...I can't...~" He can't speak correctly, his sentence is full of stuttering. I sympathize with him for a moment.

"Okay, I see you miss her and you can't stop...I understand. But Vash, it happened so long ago." I sigh when he doesn't listen. How do I know he's not listening? He's right now thinking of her and not paying attention. Believe me, I know my twin more than he knows himself. And I know also my his grumbling. Saying that I was the one who killed her.

"~Vash....Quite being a baby!" I shout out. Vash hisses.

"~ I hate you!!~" He equally shouts back.

"~....~", All is slilent. I start to wonder back to that day of the crew and the space ship that was suppose to land on this god forsaken planet that barely enough plant life, and animal life, to live in and on the planet's landform.

~This personal hell consumes me whole, letting my soul be drained every once. My energy that stores deep within me is drained so my powers to escape is impossible. I need an angel to save me from this nightmare...Someone...Please...~

My body goes weak from being tired. Yet it's funny since I haven't been doing anything but laying in the same bed for a two days now. I look towards the window. The night skies has turned the beautiful ocean skies to nightmarish dark skies.

I can't but keep thinking of Vash and his deep love, as a son would his mother, towards Rem. Sometimes I wonder what I did worng to make him despise me so much and show his oppisite feeling towards someone who died long a ago.

I know the answer of course, but to me what I did was right. But still...I wish Vash would like me for what I did.

As I keep thinking deeply about this subject I I speak my final words before slumber takes over.

"Rest will not be easy for me tonight."

(Knives' P.O.V)

"Milly! Please!" I cringed when I woke up to screams and sounds of crying.

"Wolfwood! He was the one who killed him!" Cries out some strange high pitched voice from the other room.

I blinked. Wolfwood, one of my servants who betrayed me for my brother. I smirked, who ever was crying over him was a fool. He was a bad being who needed to be put to rest.

I'm glad that betrayer was gone from this world. Really pleased that now I don't have to worry about him hanging aorund my brother like he did.

"Why didn't you tell me! W-Why Meryl!" The voice cries out again in agony.

....Then as the sounds quieted down. I thanked the lord, now I can finally rest.

But the slience didn't seem to last long.

I heard my room's door swing opened, hit the wall with a thud. Then shutter of the floor, making everything vibrate. Including my bed. Someone was stomping all the way over to where I lay.

"Y-You...YOU MONSTER!" This women with medium brown hair slapped me. I couldn't do anything, but stare in horror as her fist pounded into my face. I could feel blood splatter everywhere on my features. This human was strong...I have to admit that.

Her beatings went further down to my chest, I grimaced a minute. I wish I could scream in pain, but my vocal chord couldn't seem to find energy to do so.

"I didn't know you were the one who killed him! You...You...." She burst into deep crying. I grimaced when her tears fell on my bare chest(Meryl was kind enough to bath my upper part earlier). Stinging the scratches that the battle left besides the main wounds.

"Milly! Stop that!" The shorter young women ripped the crying youth away from my now worse in pain body.

"Milly...Come on and lets get something to drink." The raven haired women soothed the taller, brown haired women. Carrying her out of my dark room...

If only that human, Milly, knew that I was not the one who murdered the one she loved. Just like Rem, it was both their choices to lose their lives to save the ones they'd love. Even though to me, it was a foolish choice to make.

~ In this Hell of darkness. Those who suffered over time can now give me deep pain as I lie helpless. A revenge they always wanted. ~

I hear Meryl apologized for the rude wakening and pain her friend cast upon me. I say nothing though. I was still in too much pain to talk during this time.

I look towards her small frame, her head was slightly bowing. Like she was the one for the wrong doing that her friend did. I smirked, but still said nothing in return to her apology.

In the dark room there stands someone who is capable and cares enough to watch over me....Im glad at least someone cares about me in this nightmarish Hell.

"Im sorry for her acts...I'll tell her not to do it again, Knives."

I nod. She sits on the wooden stool. Watching over me as I watch her. No chatting. No smirking. No noise. Just staring into eachother's eyes.

...Finally, I spoke."It's okay. She misses the one she cares for...Like Vash."

Meryl nods, I can read her emotions like open book. She feels jealously, and sadness over my brother's deep feelings over Rem. Im just surprized she knew about the women who died a hundred and thirty years ago.

"I know...Just like Vash." She softly sighed.

Then after a few moments of rest. I fall into the slumber that was interrupted a few moments ago.
