Cowboy Bebop: The Twin Dragon Sessions
Session One: Enter Twins of the Past
* * *
Mars.
Two unknown figures walk through the alleyways, stepping over the occasional bum or dead body.
"Who do you think did this?" the first figure asked in English.
"No idea, heh, even the syndicate wasn't as bad as this," was the response from the other in the same language. They abruptly stop when they enter a clearing, just in time to see a man in blue trench coat pass out.

The legion of syndicate members, Vicious' lackeys or the ones on Spike's side were shocked. Stupid is more like it because no one was moving.
"CALL AN AMBULANCE YOU IDIOTS!" a voice from behind screamed. The two figures ran out into the clearing revealing two teenagers, they looked to be about sixteen or so. The girl wore black high waters, black high top converse, and a black tank top with a red dragon on the front. She also had a red scarf around her neck and red biker gloves that matched her eyes. The boy had black baggy pants, black converse, a black T-shirt, and accessories to match his blue eyes. He had a blue sash around his waist and blue bracers. They both had raven black hair and similar features that indicate they had to be related, and each had black trench coats on.
"Well? Damnit, CALL SOME ONE YOU STUPID LACKEYS!" the boy screamed. Seeing the boy enraged, and also with katana in hand, many men pulled out communicators and called for help.
The girl was already checking Spike; she flipped him over onto his back and applied pressure to the wound. She pulled off her trench coat and put it over him to keep him warm. He had a small pulse but was still breathing. She stood up and also pulled out her own katana. Many were confused where they had gotten the weapons, but brushed it off seeing how it wouldn't help any asking.
"You," she said as she grabbed on guy by the collar, he dropped his gun when she did. "What happened here? AND who is he?" she more demanded than asked as she pointed at spike with the hand she had her katana in.
"H-How d-did y-y-you g-get t-the d-dragon k-katanas?? W-who a-are y-you?" the man stuttered. The girl glared at him with confused eyes.
"These katanas were given to us by our parents before they died. The only people who know that they are called that besides our friends are syndicate members. This wouldn't be by chance a syndicate brawl, dear, now would it?" she said through her teeth. She noticed the guy looked like he was going to pass out so she dropped him.
"It's the Red Dragon Syndicate Miss," One other guy said while he picked up his friend. "And that over there is Spike Spiegel."
"The Red Dragons? ARE YOU SERIOUS!" the boy screamed happily. Now the rest were really confused.
"Yes! Ok this is great! I need to talk to someone who knows a lot about the syndicates' history." the girl inquired but only received blank looks.
"Damnit, who knows a lot about the dragon katanas then?" A man stepped forward and bowed before them.
"You are the wolf twins, I have heard of your epics from my family line, all who were members of the red dragons. Even back before the gate incident." The man said.
"What is your name?"
"Rinji Hibiki, Sir." The girls face lighted up.
"HIBIKI! oh thank god....all right!," she pointed to a group of people, "You guys check for wounded, leave dead for dead. Then bring all that are living here, when done everyone leave before the cops come, I don't want a syndicate with no members got it?" They didn't move. "NOW DAMNIT!!" They hurried off to do her bid.
"Ok Rin, let's fix up Spike so he can take over, but me and my brother'll do it for now since all of the rest are complete idiots. What happened to quality not quantity?" she jested as she walked over to Spike.
"Ok, madam"
"Don't call me that, call me Sachi, I'm too young for madam, well maybe, what year is it?"
"2071"
"We're 85? Oh god.....," the boy mumbled.
"85 sir?"
"Same apply's Rin, call me Shino, you already apparently know our names...."
Before he could reply the men started to come out of the building with wounded. Two men carrying another hurried over the others.
"SHIN!" Rin exclaimed as he ran over to the men carrying him.
"Shin? Why does he have my name?" Shino said turning to his sister.
"Don't know, but Rin's a Hibiki....weird ain't it?," she responded but continued in English "guess we'll have to run it 'til that Spiegel guy's back in business, looks like a fight for leadership....wonder with who though....."
"With Vicious madam," Rin said (in English) from behind her while holding Shin.
"Don't call me that, and who's Vicious, dead now I presume?"
"Yes"
"ALL RIGHT, LEAVE THE WOUNDED HERE AND LEAVE, WE WILL CALL YOU ALL WHEN WE KNOW THE SYNDICATE LEADER IS OK, LEAVE NOW." Shino screamed in Japanese. The members left the wounded on the stairs and fled from the scene as fast as they could. Sirens began to sound in the background.
"All right, this isn't good...," Sachi mumbled as she put her katana back from where ever it came. Her brother did the same as walked over to Spike. "Rin, what kind of money do you use?"
"Woolongs"
"Do you have enough to pay for all of these guys' medical bills?" Shino asked pointing to about twelve other syndicate members including Shin.
"Plenty, we get paid pretty good ya know?" Rinji joked. "The ambulances are almost here"
"Yea...."

Bebop.
In the kitchen Jet is cooking, on one leg, his special bell peppers and beef, hold the beef while Faye is off in her room sulking because she can't go anywhere with her damaged ship. A communicator goes off in the living room. Jet curses a bit as he hobbles over to the yellow couch and collapses on it as he picks up the communicator.
"SPIKE DAMNIT I TOLD YOU I'M NOT--HEY wait who are you??"
Shino pops up on the screen, blue eyes gleaming he smirks. "Wow man, hostile, you shouldn't answer communicators like that cause people might take it personally"
"Who are you and what do you want?" Jet spits out angrily. Faye walks in.
"Your bell peppers are burning," she said nonchalantly. Jet practically drops the communicator and hobbles as fast as he could into the kitchen. Faye grabs it before it falls.
- - -
Hospital.
Shino watches Faye pop up onto the communicator.
"Who are you?" the green eyed women asked.
"Shino. At your service! Are you Ms. Valentine? If so then you might want to know Spike is alive and well. Well, maybe not well....you see we're in the hospital. Spike is alive but unconscious and badly wounded. It would help to have eh, moral support? By some one he knows and a pretty girl wouldn't hurt."
"...."
"Hello? Ms. Valentine?"
*Click*
The communicator shuts off.
- - -
Jet walks back into the living room.
"Who was it Faye?"
"...Spike is alive...Spike...SPIKE YOU BASTARD!--"
"What? Spike's alive???!!" Jet interjected but to no avail.
"--YOU LEAVE SAYING YOUR GOING TO DIE AND YOU DON'T EVEN DIE? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU SPIKE SPIEGAL DON'T YOU EVEN HAVE THE DECENCY TO DIE WHEN YOU SAY YOU ARE??"
"Faye calm downnn, he never said he was going to die even though it seemed like it," Jet said in a calm voice tying to sooth the raging beast.
"I know....damnit...," she mumbled angrily. "He said he was going to find out if he was really alive...." She jumps over the couch and into the hanger.
"YOUR SHIP ISN'T EVEN MOBILE FAYE!" he heard her curse as she walked out of the hanger. She marched up to the control room as Jet tried to follow best as he could.
"What are you doing Faye?" She ignores him and plots a course.
"Faye, where are we going?"
"Earth"
