[On the morning of the fourth, Vash awoke, but it was different from any other time he had ever woken up before. Instead of feeling hope and excitement for a new day, he could only feel anger and despair. The humans. They were everywhere. There weren’t any other Plants for them to suck the life away from, but they were still so wasteful.

He spent most of the day in his room at the apartment he shared with Meryl and Wolfwood. He could hear them moving around outside his door and he found himself growing more and more resentful of them as time went on. He was slowly forgetting why he use to enjoy hearing the sounds of their voices; why even he chose to live here with them. Finally after he listened and was sure he heard that they had left for the day he started packing. After everything was packed away he picked up his journal and flipped it open. His voice lacks any of the friendly and open manner it once held; now it just sounds angry and aggressive.]

Legato. I understand now. Follow the river to the western lake and meet me there. We’ll start the cleansing here that Knives started back home. He was right, you humans are a parasite, festering and infecting anything you can get your hands on. With you serving me, we will find a way to permanently destroy the humans here so they won’t be back in a week.

You pitiful humans enjoy the little time you have left.

[With that Vash leaves CH4 with the plan to never return except to destroy it.]

(OOC: Sorry guys - action reserved for the Trigun cast which will be found here! Mostly because mun will have trouble keeping Vash from killing anyone he runs into. Voice is of course wide open! Also, forward dated to the end of the event as there’s a good chance mun won’t be around to post this then!)

Nothing is wrong. I'm just finally thinking clearly.

You told me a few days ago that killing was bad. Doesn't sound like you feel that way anymore.

You're right. I don't.

You should know better than anybody, Mr. Goody Two Shoes. [ she says those words very quietly, with something like sadness. ] You can't and won't get away with this. Don't do it, Vash. There's no need for people to pointlessly get hurt.

It won't be pointless. I'm going to create a world without war or violence. So I will get rid of the humans, they're the ones who created war. They're the ones that take more than they give.

You think that war and fighting will stop if you kill everyone in the enclosure? Have you forgotten about the drafts? The Third Party? People will keep showing up here whether you like it or not, Vash, no matter how many of them you kill. The Third Party and the Malnosso won't ever stop. The fighting won't end. It won't ever end.

Just stop this, Vash, please. I ... I know about your brother, I know what you are, I ... I know. But humans ... even if they can be selfish, they're special. You should know never to underestimate the power of a human's heart.

No, not everyone, just the humans. They're the ones who cause most of the problems around here.

And if you really know about my brother, than you should understand why we need to eradicate all of the humans in every universe. They will spread to infect other planets if you give them the chance.

And you think everyone left behind will be okay with what you've done? Besides, you haven't been paying attention if you think it's just the humans who cause all the trouble.

[ a pause, here. truthfully, she doesn't know much -- even after years, he'd really only told her the basics, and she hadn't wanted to pry. logic -- and what he's said just now -- are helping her piece together the story she wasn't told, but even so... it's rather on the fly. ]

Humans aren't a disease. War is, hate is ... but it's not just humans that are capable of that. Right now, Vash... even though you're not human, you're creating war. You're the one creating hate, not humans. Doesn't that mean anything to you?

Oh no, I'm just finishing what the humans started.

[ ... clearly not, then. Xion sighs. ]

You may be a Plant, but you couldn't defeat everyone in Luceti. Not if we all came at you at once. Vash... please, this is just an experiment. Fight it!

[Oh, that just makes him break out into mad laughter.] Go ahead! It will make things so much easier if you'd group together like that.

[ no. after Naoki and Richard, she isn't risking her life a second time this week. but the laughter makes her incredibly angry -- and it takes a long moment of silence for her to get a reign on her temper. however, her voice is very soft when she does finally speak -- a deadly kind of soft that's rather strange, coming from her. ]

Do you think things will be this way forever? What happens when this experiment ends, Vash, and you don't feel like this anymore?

This is no experiment, not for me.

So you're exempt from what the Malnosso do, now? When did that happen, Vash?

[ more emotion is bleeding into her voice now, and it's strained between anger and sadness and fear ]

No, I've already gotten body swapped, I was not exempt.

Then how is this--?!

[ and with a sharp sigh, she gives up. every last bit of the anger goes out of her. ]

... I just hope that when this is over... you remember that you didn't really want this, and that it wasn't your fault.

[Vash just snorts and shuts his journal. He's so sick of hearing that.]
