With a capped off fill of fuel in those babies, he’d never have to worry about running dry in the desert ever again.
“Oh… pretty...” Vash managed to mumbled through a mouthful of drool.
“This is the last of the Mission Force Patrol V8 Interceptors, the Patrol Special. This is fastest and most aggressive police cars ever made... at least before they started mounting missile launchers. This car can outrun everything but that,” stated Bean, pointing to a custom sports car sitting in the back. “I’ll guarantee you that.”
“Oh?” inquired Vash, “What so special about that car.”
Beans eyes narrowed and his eyes too on a angry gleam, “That car is mine. I don’t care who you are and what you drive. I’m the best there is, and that’s the best car there is.”
“Okay,” said Vash with a shrug. “I’ll take the car!”
Bean smiled and held out the keys. “I’ll top her off. Usually wouldn’t to that, especially with THOSE tanks, but it’s 300 grand in my pocket that wasn’t there before. Least I can do.”
Lina smiled and jumped for the keys, but Bean held them out of her reach and threw them to Vash.
“Hey!” exclaimed Lina, “It’s my car! I found it, a dreamed of it, I saved for it...”
“And I bought it!” added Vash.
“Grrr… GIMME THOSE KEYS!” snarled Lina. The redhead grabbed onto his leg, dug her nails in, and bit him.
“HEY! LEGGO! LEGGO!” cried Vash as he tried in vain to shake Lina off his leg.
Eventually Lina dropped off. Trying another tactic she slipped down onto her knees and looked up to him through big watery eyes. “Vash... you’re SO mean! Are you always going to be this mean? I’m your wife and you’re SOOOO mean to me! If your this mean to me what that about the children! Are you going to be mean to them?” Lina sniffed and started wailing, “Whhhhhha! I’m married to a CHILD ABUSER!!!!” Vash stepped back in shock, and opened his mouth to reply but was stopped when Bean gave him a solid pat on the back. “She’s your wife? Lemme guess, you saved her from certain death, and because of that dumbass tradition they have in these parts your stuck with her...”
“Well, yeah,” relied Vash with a shrug.
“I’ve known Lina for a while. The bitch is always putting on acts like this to get what she wants.”
“Hey,” Lina snarled jumping right out of her ‘pitiful me’ act. “Who are you calling a bitch?!”
Bean shook his head. “See?”
Vash nodded. “I see...”
Lina snarled but said nothing. She knew she had lost this argument, and was not stupid enough to use fireballs this close to this much gas. She’d fireball him later.
Bean smiled looked Vash in the eyes. “You’re called Vash?”
“Yeah...,” he replied.
“As in “Vash the Stampede?”
“Yeah...”
