It Wasn't the End After All

[Chapter 5]

The crew of the Bebop spent a month and a half looking for some
kind of a lead to the location of 'the Junction'. They were fustrated
with their unsuccessful attempts. They gave up looking for him, but
Julia was still worried.

"Faye, do you think he'll finally catch me one day?," Julia asked
one night.

Faye laid silently, thinking about the question. She looked down at
the woman on her bare chest and sighed.

"I don't know...I really don't know. But I do know that no matter
what, I'll protect you with my life."

"Faye? Why do you care so much about me? We've only known
each other for a few months, but you always seem so protective of
me. Even when we first met."

Faye smiled in the dark.

"Because you're all I have, I mean aside from Jet," Faye said as tears
rolled down her face.

Ever since she gained most of her memories back, she felt so lost. But
with Julia made her feel complete... Julia looked up at Faye. Her hand
reached up and wiped a tear away. Faye purred a little as the soft skin
touched her face.

"I love you," Faye said bringing Julia close to her face.
"I love you too," Julia whispered as her lips pressed against her lover's.

That night they expressed their love like true lovers did. Their bodies
met and seemed to melt together, forming a beautiful union between
their souls. They proved love didn't have to be between a man and a
woman for their souls to intertwine and them to feel connected.

*********
A week later, Jet was off chasing a bounty and Julia was taking a nap.
Faye sat quietly in the sitting area of the ship reading a book in her bath-
robe, when a transmission came through. A masculine figure was all she could
see on the screen. He wore a dark shroud around his neck and wide-brimmed
hat that Faye could only see the top of because he was looking down.

"Who are you?," Faye asked with an uneasy feeling in her stomach.
"It's none of you're concern who I am. But I do have some information
you might find handy," he said in a raspy voice.

Faye shivered slightly at the sound of his voice. "Go on."

"The man your looking for can be found on Earth. He goes under the name,
Turomato, Leon."

He gave her an address and brief description of his appearance. When he was
done Faye thanked him.

"But why are you helping me? I don't even know your name," Faye asked
still unsure if she could trust the man.
"My name is irrelevent to you. I'm only helping because I owe someone a
favor. Now goodbye," he said looking up a second before the transmission
was lost.

Faye saw something familiar in his eyes but couldn't place a finger on it. She
looked down at the info he had given her and looked back at the blank screen. For
a moment she wondered if it was all a dream, a quick pinch to her forearm
confirmed that it wasn't.

It all seemed to good to be true, but Faye was glad that finally this whole 'Junction'
thing would be over soon. She got up and went to wake up Julia...
