The red coat, over sized, dragged on the dusty ground. Legato had been picking on him for it dragging so badly. So what if it was to long? At least it was stylish! Then there was Meryl who had 50 derringer squirt guns. All in a small cape thingy she wore! That wasn�t fair when they had squirt gun fights! Vash had one squirt gun, it was kind of small, but it was really nice! Legato had, well he didn�t like to participate, since he was the new kid. So no one knew what he had. Millie had a really big gun that had around seven different rounds for her water gun. Then Nicholas D. Wolfwood had this really tight cross that was only as tall as him, that had three different water cannons and more mini water guns in the side, slide pockets. Being at a very young age they all didn�t have real weaponry, nor did they want any, they didn�t want to grow up at all. Walking into Augusta, that was there meeting point for today, Vash was quietly listening for someone to try and squirt him in the face. He held up his squirt gun like in Spy Movies, against a wall, gun, both hands and arms raised. People were milling about doing chores, as a war of childhood friends was about to break loose. When would Legato finally come out and play? He was welcome, that blue-haired, white, freaky jacket, freak kid. Chhck! Rocks! Moving�where? Vash spun around, a black cat with really huge green eyes stared at him,� aaaahhh!! Oh, it�s only you Kuroneko-Sama! Why are you always everywhere?� It meowed in response. A lady in a bakery was plump and smiling, � Why Allo there my cute lil Vashy-Sama!� Vash winced at that nickname,� Shhh, Miss Hudson! I�m in a squirt fight with the others!� The lady laughed, � OH HOHOHO! I�m soooooooo sorry! I know! I�ll make it up with one of these!� She threw a donut at Vash, who easily caught it, � THERE HE IS!� Cold, icy water hit Vash in the face, � Nice shot, Millie� Meryl�s voice rang out� Thanks Meryl!� Vash looked at the wet donut and got teary eyed, � Th-th-that was my donut!� he aimed at Millie and shot his squirt gun at her hair as she turned away. � Hey bro� with an aim like that you won�t hit Millie!� Vash spun around as Knives stepped into Augusta, wiping tears away he said,� Knives! I know but it was free and just made!� Knives sighed, � Oh! That freak Legato said he would be here later!� Wolfwood pounced out of an alley and sprayed Knives straight on,� Cool! Can I have the honor of tagging him first?� Knives stared at Wolfwood,� HEY! We haven�t started yet! And you know the rules no refills on water!� Wolfwood smiled in response.
As the day zoomed by it was soon evening and no Legato. Millie scoffed,� He never showed up! As my Big, Big, Big sister always says �one must never break a promise�!� Wolfwood stuck a sucker in his mouth, � Bah! I knew he was a coward.� Heading home the winner of that round was Knives, how, no one knew.
Vash ran up and down the stairs at their home, racing around Knives he stopped,� Legato, where was he?� Knives snickered, � Probably got scolded by his mommy!� Vash laughed along with his brother. He looked across the street where Legato lived dark in his house. Yawning Vash went upstairs, �Where we meeting tomorrow?� Knives replied quietly,� Mei City!� Nodding sleepily, Vash dragged himself up the steps.
Legato snickered. He was very aware he never had shown up. He was planning this. His Mega-Ultimate-Brew-hahaha Squirt Gun gun was almost complete! Chewing on Cotton Candy bubblegum and his Midvalley Best Saxophone Hits playing on his tape recorder he smiled happily, he couldn�t wait to get it working.
Mei City! Large and filled with hiding spots, Vash sat in a new, empty trash can, his squirt gun ready. Knives was in another trash can. Meryl and Millie were somewhere in town more than likely, Wolfwood, no one knew, he could be right in front of them, he was a master at silence. Vash�s stomach growled, he wanted a donut. Knives popped his head up and yelled,� BEGIN!� hiding back in his spot he heard Meryl and Millie very close, � We gottta� find �em! Knives won last night and that was our win all the way!� Meryl spoke next, � Yeah YOU ran out of water, I was tagged in the chest, automatic out or at least for yesterday's rule, today it�s out of water out of play!� Vash laughed quietly as they walked right past, then peeking out he sprayed Meryl in the back and ran. Meryl spun around, no one was there. Who? She spotted two trash cans. Knives wondered why they were so quiet�unless Vash had sprayed one of them, or both, and they found the trashcans� Knives aimed straight up, ready to blast em away with icy, icy, cold water. Wolfwood sat on the roof top watching everything with a clear view, biting into an apple, he knew everyone was playing, he was waiting for the right moment. He froze, someone was behind him. Wolfwood turned his head, a long red coat and an old squirt gun in a right hand�Vash! He had perfect shooting at times. Wolfwood hopped off the ledge and spun his cross around the top aiming at Vash,� you know its out of water out of play. You have used some of that water, I have the advantage� Vash stared,� I know Wolfy!� Wolfwood pressed the trigger, a blast of water flew from the cannon, Vash ran to the side like a chicken with no head. Out of water on one cannon. He turned to the second and Vash stood there getting sopping wet. The third-Wolfwood stopped. He was catching on to his game. Vash stood there�
Legato walked in Mei City and everyone grouped around him squealing about his cuteness. He tried to make them go away when Vash, Meryl, and the others left never seeing him.
Growling Legato tramped into December City and stood on a roof top watching all that went on below�
Vash ran around shooting Meryl in the face then running off snickering. Meryl giving chase aiming her water derringers and sprayed hitting Vash right in the hair, Vash spun around, eyes glowing blue, he yelled,� MY HAIR!!!!!!!!� Meryl stepped back as Vash sprayed her with water drenching her, then he went out of water.
The group sat around a fountain eating ice cream when a boy small in size and a HUGE water gun on his back stepped in. Their mouths fell open. Legato laughed, � Ha! I have come! When after all this time I have been planning!� Aiming his giant water cannon at them, he blasted away, sending the kids flying a mile and a half. Legato laughed. He won. Plain and Simple.
