Bloody Love: Oh and a big thank you to Kendra Luehr. Also I would like to dedicate it to her for helping me come up with a plot. Thanks for editing it too.

A Ballad of Love and Regulation
Chapter 1: How it all began
'How do I get myself into these things?' a gorgeously, voluptuous woman with purple hair wondered miserably.
The woman scanned her surroundings again for the second time. She was in a broken down, deserted apartment complex accompanied by a tall, gangly man with puffy green hair. A gangster no less and, incidentally, she an FBI agent. They were on the eighth floor since the other eight were blasted off. So there was no roof and the walls were crumbling down around them, every five to ten minutes you would hear a few bricks topple down.
Her eyes automatically turning to look at the man, Spike, who currently was surprisingly carelessly leaning against the only hole in the wall, scrutinizing the area. A lit cigarette was placed precariously between his index and middle fingers in his left hand which was limp by his thigh.
Letting out an exasperated sigh, the woman pivoted on her heel and headed over towards the fire they had started with some debris to ward off the cold, for the sun was setting. Mars tended to get a little chilly once the sun disappeared over the horizon.
However, the sky was beautiful even if mostly red. The woman took off her black jacket and folded it so it could make some semblances of a pillow. She proceeded to take off her gun holsters and laid them down next to her jacket so that they would be in easy reach if she needed them. Then she lay on her back and closed her eyes in hopes of falling asleep.
She laid there with her eyes closed for hours but sleep seemed to elude her. Spike had come over and laid down a few feet away from her after the sun was gone, which was roughly a few hours ago.
'I hope Ed's ok. This is the first time I've been away from her for a night ever since her parents passed away,' sadness quickly enveloped the woman. 'Emma how could you leave Ed like that? She needs you, but I will try my best to raise her right. You were my sister, after all, so I promise to take good care of her once I'm out of this. I hope Jet went to go get her so she's not home by herself.'
The woman turned to face the fire, her eyes snapping open to reveal a pair of emerald eyes, the fire light dancing across her eyes making them appear luminous and all the more enticing. Her eyes glazed over as she thought back five days ago.
\Scene change/
"Valentine, get your ass in here, now!" a voice boomed throughout the vicinity.
A purple head snapped up and a woman lifted herself out of her chair at a leisurely pace and casually strolled down the hall to the room from which the voice came from. Valentine pushed the door open and sauntered in before making herself cozy in one of the plushy chairs.
"Where've you been? You were supposed to be here at four!" a hulky, balding man said from behind his immaculate desk.
Valentine glanced at the clock on the wall to see that it was exactly five after. "Oh calm down, Jet I'm only five minute's late," Valentine said indignantly with a roll of her eyes.
"Faye, how many times have I told you not to call me Jet? I'm your superior so it's Commander Black," Jet said, a vein pulsing at his temple. Faye just looked at him wondering just how he and Julia had fallen in love with each other.
"Many times and I still haven't. So let's cut to the chase…what did you call me in here for?" Faye asked still pondering over her previous thought.
Jet pulled out a manila folder from his desk and started to leaf through it. "I'm putting you in charge of the Syndicate case," Jet paused and glanced up at Faye to see her surprised face. "The Red Dragons and the Black Scorpions have been going at it like crazy. Sadly, too many civilians have been getting in the way and killed. So I need you to bring the leaders in," Jet said and shoved the folder towards Faye. She reached out and grabbed the folder off of Jet's desk.
"I will do my best, sir," Faye said, then spun on her heel and was out the door.
So how was that for my first bebop fic? I'll try to update soon. I promise. It's just I've not been into my fics lately so I thought maybe if I try something else I'll get inspired and moving again. I changed a few things I felt I could describe their surroundings a little bit better for now. I'll add more next chapter. Till next time readers, Bloody Love
