I wrote this back when I was in midleschool! I'm surprised at how good I used to be at writing.. that I wrote this when I was 13 … I'm not sure if its been done already this was one of my first fanficts so its probably still good! I'd actaully watched the show so I knew how to write it.

Chapter 1: MacDougle returns…

Gene Starwind looked at his crew. He had a strange one for sure. A C'tarl C'tarl, an assassin, a Bio android and an 11-year-old kid. But he was lucky and an Outlaw. Years ago his father saved him by blasting him into space alone. Ever since he had a phobia about space travel. But that had all changed when he met Hilda. 'Hot Ice Hilda ' was her nickname. But space pirates had destroyed her.

Anyway that was the past now Gene and his crew were headed towards Blue heaven to look for a pirate. Suzuka and Aisha Clan Clan (the assassin and C'tarl C'tarl.) were joining them. Jim Hawking was an 11-year-old Gene saved from death. Now he was an Outlaw too and his business partner, He was in front of Gene. A bio-android named Melfina was their navigator. (She floated in a tank near the back.)

"A ship is coming from behind." Melfina warned. Gene nodded at Jim. Soon a screen popped up near the window. It was a yellow ships the shape of a seed pod. "The El'Dorado!" The crew and gene said in unison. The screen suddenly changed and they all gasped. There sat Ron MacDougle and a small image of Harry MacDougle.

"Well we meet again," A husky voice stated but Ron Macdougle's lips didn't move, "Gene Starwind…" The Ship fired missiles aimed at the Outlaw Star. "Jim!" Gene shouted, the 11-year-old began typing on the keyboard in front of him. Anti-missiles were shot back and the others blew up away from the ship. Jim showed Gene the 'thumbs up sign' and smiled. Suddenly Big arms shot out and clamped down hard on the front. Jim screamed and Gene watched him as he was thrown backward. Jim landed on the floor and lay motionless. Gillian, the ship computer, told gene the front was damaged badly. But Gene wasn't listening. The ship began to break and the Outlaw star was thrown to the nearest planet. The last thing Gene saw was Jim's lifeless body. Gene's vision blurred soon after and he fell unconscious

Gene's mind reeled back to one cold day when his father had saved him from dying by blasting him into subspace in an emergency pod. . The sad but detriminded look on his fathers face. Gene shivered as he remembered how alone he had felt. Drifting in space he had huddled himself up into a corner and shivered. Finally a ship had brought him to Sentinel three. Gene had been looked over and then set out. He was fourteen years old then and not an outlaw. He didn't know what the word meant. Just had his father looked down on whoever they were.

But it was cold then and he looked strange in the space suit. He'd hid in an alley to escape a group of older guys. When he saw something move, He stood and demanded it come out of the shadows. It ended up being a small four-year old child with blonde hair and a pair of large blue eyes. He seemed to have been there a while. He had a stained white T-shirt, blue jeans( twice his size) with holes.

"Who are you?" Gene had asked, the boy blinked. "James …James Hawking, " The child stuttered, "You're not going to throw rocks at me are you?" the timid child asked Gene rolled him eyes.. It was then he noticed the scrapes on the kid's ankles and face. He had been in fights before. Probably from the older guy, and from the scratches he'd lost. "I'm Gene Starwind, That's not my way…"The child looked relieved.

He looked around. "Where's your family?" He asked, James got a confused look. "I-I don't know …my mom died when-when I was born and my-my dad…"The child's voice cracked, His eyes filling up with tears. Gene felt sorry for him "He gave me his lap top, left me here and I've waited forever…"the child finally told him holding up a shinny new computer. Gene realized the kid had been abandoned by his father and he instantly felt compelled to help him. The kid didn't understand what he did. He put his hand on the kid's shoulder and he smiled. The kid quaked when he did and stared at him.

"You can stay with me…If you want to." He offered. The child's eyes lit up and he nodded. He kid struggled to get up. And winced when he finally did. He limped after the teenager. Gene picked the kid up and carried him piggy-back style.

On the way home they talked, " Can I call you Jim instead?" Gene asked leading James to his garage. The child nodded "Okay… Can I call you Anki?" he asked, Gene stopped and looked at the kid from over his shoulder. Jim smiled innocently. Anki meant 'Brother' and 'teacher' Could he be those things? Gene started walking again and said it was fine. Gene told Jim he was going to opening a Business " Gene's car shop…"Gene suggested. He had learned a little about mechanics from his father. Jim frowned "How 'bout 'Starwind and Hawking enterprises?" Gene smiled and ruffled Jim's hair "Okay then…"

Melfina 's soft, but urgent voice brought him back into the present…"Damage is only to the front ,Gene…Engines red…power low…GENE!" Gene shook his head. "I'm awake…" He looked around suddenly. "Where's Jim?" He asked. He saw Jim lying on the floor panting hard. He couldn't see if he was crying. "Hey Jim! Wake up!" Aisha was saying taping his head. Jim stirred and limped back to the counsel. The same limp as the first day he met Jim. Gene hid a worried look and told Jim to show the outside scene. The screen popped up and he grimaced. They were on a different planet.

"The climate was arctic and the ship is nearly covered in snow. No trees or bushes ,it a barren waist land. No signs of intelligent life anywhere! Gene! "

Jim said looking at the consul in front of him. He frowned at Gene's sad look.

. He seemed tired and his head too heavy for him to lift. "Okay! Why don't we get some rest…"Gene happily suggested. Jim flushed, and looked away." Anki…I'm…"He started. He knew why Gene suddenly was acting responsible. Melfina blinked "Gene, that's the most grown up thing you've ever done…"she knew too. Aisha stood up and went towards Jim. "Wow …Jim how did ya know that?" Aisha asked. Jim smile lopsided and explained that he tamped into an information site and downloaded It.. Gene felt his anger rise ,didn't she see he was hurt? Was she that thick headed? Suzuka glanced at Gene sharing his concern.

Jim's head suddenly dropped to one side and blood slid down his cheek. Jim eyes went straight to Gene before they closed. "Jim!" Melfina screamed and closed her eyes. She shook her head. Aisha stood there and then held Jim's shoulders. "Jimmy-boy?" she begged. Suzuka looked down and mumbled a word. And stared with a small frown. Gene just sat there looking shocked as the child's hand dangled lifelessly. Gene remembered the Jim's blue eyes and his childish expressions Jim was still breathing slowly. "Jim!" he whispered "Don't leave me…".
