I don't own anything, I just wrote the fanfic.

Saving Her

I woke up and looked over on the other side of my bed. There he was. Johnny had been with me every morning since defeating Zinyak. I admit, things got a little rocky with Gat and I. I was the boss and he was my second in command. He didn't like taking commands from me, but he cared about me and did anything I asked. I was a hard ass sometimes, I know, but he and the rest of the crew knew I cared about them, they were the only family I had. I also set high expectations for them because I only wanted the best.

I rolled to check the clock, it read 10:00.

"Ugh, time to get up." I whispered.

Before getting up I rolled back over and smiled, Johnny was still sleeping. He was wearing a white tank and boxers. His glasses were on his nightstand by his comb and hair gel. I laughed quietly, he couldn't go anywhere without his glasses or hair gel.

"How did I ever get a someone like you?" I said softly.

I stroked his cheek and kissed his forehead. I then proceeded to get up and walk over to my dresser to get my space suit. I quietly walked out of my quarters and went to the shower.

There I thought about today's plans. We had to set up and celebrate Kinzie's birthday. She's never had one so, we thought it would be nice to give her one. She didn't get out much, all she did was stare at her computer screen. She needed a distraction. I hopped out and put on my clothes and went back to my quarters to apply some makeup.

I came back and Johnny was still sleeping. I rolled my eyes, he was just being stubborn.

"Hey." I said, stroking his arm.

"Hey." He replied with a grin.

"You need to get up and help everyone set up for the party."

"Give me a couple minutes."

"Fine."

Before Johnny left to get a shower he came over to my dresser. He kissed me. I got that kiss every morning, the kiss that meant everything was going to be okay and I didn't have to worry because he was here. I knew when Gat was here anything was possible.

I walked down the stairs with Johnny trailing behind me. The whole crew was in Pierce's lounge setting up for the day. The party was meant to be a surprise, we had been planning this for weeks now. Kinzie was still sleeping which meant we had some extra time to set up.

"Hey Boss." Everyone said.

"Hey guys, let us get started setting up, shall we?"

Shaundi, Asha, and I began hanging streamers. Pierce, Ben, Johnny, and Kieth were setting up the bar. Matt, Zinjai, CID, and Jane Austin we're baking a giant tea cup cake. Suddenly we heard Kinzie coming down the stairs and decided to hide.

"Where is everyone?"

"Surprise!" We yelled.

"What is this for?"

"Your birthday, of course." Johnny said.

"I've never celebrated a birthday."

"Then, let us be the first to help you celebrate." I replied.

Kinzie looked at us very unsure.

"C'mon Kinzie, we have a cake, some drinks, and games." Matt squealed.

"Games? I like games." Kinzie said with a evil grin.

Matt pulled out this spooky game board called "JUJU." I don't know where he got it, but that didn't matter at this point. We were here to celebrate with drinks and fun.

"This is how you talk to the dead?" Kinzie asked, very skeptical.

"Oh hush, it will be fun." Shaundi said.

"Alright, let's play! How do we start?" Kinzie said sounding more interested.

"Everyone put your hand on the cursor." Matt instructed.

"Cursor, huh?" Johnny snorted.

"Then, we ask it a question. I'll go first." Matt squealed again.

"Will the boss/president/empress ever find a partner to rule along side her?"

"Really, Matt? Do I really need to hit you again?" I yelled.

"No, no I want to hear this." Johnny said with a smug grin.

"I bet you would." I said under my breath.

The board moved the cursor to yes. I looked up and saw everyone at the table snickering as they looked at the expression I gave to Johnny. Who just gave me a blank stare and then, laughed.

"He must be loving this." I thought.

Johnny and I never talked about getting married. Well, we could because none of the crew were registered priests and Earth was gone, we couldn't set up a home life. Plus, I wasn't the marrying type. I didn't think Gat was either. All he thought about was guns, murder, revenge, and sometimes, on rare occasions maybe even me. My thoughts were interrupted by Shaundi asking another stupid question.

"Who will tame the President's wild heart?"

I thought we covered this. I was interested in Johnny, but I didn't know if our relationship was serious. I thought we just really cared for each other. I mean the romantic things we did were great, but we never thought about marriage. Well, I guess I never did really. I was too busy running a gang, murdering, and causing chaos everywhere. And what would happen if we did get serious? Would we get married? Would we have a bunch of little Johnny Jrs. running around? Oh no. One Gat was enough, but another one or more would just be too much. The whole world would be destroyed. I didn't think of myself as a good role model anyway, who wants there kid to grow up and say "Hey, I want to be a gang leader just like my mom and dad." There were many other reasons for not getting married and having kids, but I didn't want to think about it right now.

"Oh no." I yelled about ready to throw the board across the room, but I was too late.

The board move to "J". I was relieved, "J" for Johnny, right? No, the board continued and spelled J-E-Z-E-B-E-L .

"Who the fuck is Jezebel?" I said, very irritated.

Suddenly a portal opened and sucked me into what I imagine was certain doom.
