The Mission

By:

Spike was the only one up in the Bebop, taking his last puff on his last cigarette, he put it out and looked to see what time it was, 5:30 am. Everyone else was still asleep. Spike hadn't slept at all, he couldn't stop thinking of Julia. The same words went through his mind, "Why did you love me?" from the blonde woman he loved so dearly. He remembered everything they had together, the intimate nights, the dates, and especially those words she said to him. Spike stood up from his spot on the couch and walked toward a window, here it was, Mars, his home. Where he had met Julia, and Vicious. "Vicious...You damned bitch of a man." he said under his breath, he stopped and went back to his seat, yet again another craving. He thought to him self, he didn't have anymore. He wouldn't dare take any from Jet, he'd toss my arm off just like what happend to his. Edward doesn't smoke, Faye...Yeah Faye. He got up and walked toward what would be Jets room but Faye took it over since she's a woman and needs her space. As he got to the womans room, he had to walk towards it carefully, he didn't know how she slept. Walking in to it cautiously, he found a gun by her bed, it looked like it was loaded, and next to that, a lighter on top of a cigarette box. He looked at her with squinting eyes, thinking 'She's not that bad when she's a sleep.' and looked back to the pack,lifting it carefully, he was successful, Spike grinned having them in his full grasp, 'I think I miht as well take the whole thing, with all the empty ones in here she'll be searching.' Loaing his train of though he saw her roll over, the covers uncovered her ass that was wearing a thong, he looked at it for a moment, and then back to her face, 'Ew, drool...Wait..' It wasn't drool, it was tears, she was crying in her sleep. 'I really don't like seeing women cry.' He stayed next to her, her alarm clock saying 6:03 am, the alarm was never set, he didn't have to worry about that. "Andy..." she moaned as she was sleeping, 'maybe it was a past time friend.' He thought, there was a picture on her little end table, it was old, and fading away, the picture it's self was cracking, it was a boy and a little girl that had similur looks to Faye, he began to stand up and walk out the door, he had no business in her past love lives. Spike walked out of the door, he still had Julia on his mind, he remembered when she was shot, and what she had said before she passed away, he felt his heart fall apart, he took a cigarette from the pack and put it to his lips and started to light it. He did so, and looked behind him, it was a very tired Edward getting something from the fridge, she stopped midway and fell asleep making a very hard thud sound when she hit the ground, "What a strong girl." He said aloud, he thought about when he went to Fayes room, "Thats one mission, I'll never do again." and started to smoke again and lay down on the couch.
