The Past Returns: Chapter Eleven
Julia was the first one to strike. She aimed to kick at the ribs, which Faye easily blocked. Faye then did a spinning back kicked to her chest, upper cut to her face, and was going to punch her when Julia block and grabbed onto her arm pulling her to herself and kneed her in the stomach, causing Faye to bent over, and elbowed to her back causing her enemy to fall back on the ground. Faye quickly turned over on her back and saw Julia coming to her with a kick, she pushed it out of the way with her left foot, turned and kicked her with her right foot, that pushed Julia away from her. She got to her feet and punched her on the jaw.
This impact made Julia stammered back. She put one hand to her mouth and saw that she was bleeding at the side of her mouth. "Well then you do have some gusts after all".
"I'm glad to hear you finally realized it. Answer this one question for me Julia, why do you hate me so much? Is it because I'm the new fire in Spike's life?" Instead of answering her she ran toward Faye screaming. "I guess I got my answer", she smirked.
Julia charged at Faye once again and was trying to strike her with all her might however, couldn't get a punch to her because Faye kept blocking her every move; she tried to punch her with her right hand but again she blocked it and pulled her arm so that Faye was able to throw Julia over her shoulder that made her fall flat on her butt but still held her arm tucked against her back. Julia then was about to back elbow her with her left arm but Faye saw that coming so she blocked and tucked that arm to her back as well. Faye pushed Julia hard against a wall. "I never thought I'd use these but, there's a first time for everything", Faye said as she handcuffed her to the wall (much like how she was cuffed in episode 3). Just as she finished she felt someone grab her around the waist and pulled her roughly against him. She looked up and saw Vicious holding onto her with one hand and held a gun to her neck in the other.
"If you try to get away I'll order your son killed", he whispered and indicated to Eric who was being held by a henchman.
"SPIKE!" he yelled. Both him and Jet looked up and saw the situation. "You always did know how to pick them uh? Faye is beautiful not to mention smells awfully nice. As for your son he's so cute; takes after most of your features if I may add", spoke Vicious.
"This is between you and me so you can leave her and my son out of this"; he said firmly and took a step towards them.
"No, hold it right there; take another step and watch her get killed", he pushed his gun deeper into her neck and saw Spike take one step back. "That's right now we understand each other".
"Leave everyone out of this Vicious!"
"Let's make a deal. Just to show you my thanks for being loyal to me when you were in the Red Dragon I'll let your son go". His henchman carefully placed Eric down on the couch. "But to prove to you and all of my henchmen, which are watching, no one should dare to defy me, I'm taking your lover. Listen here, only you come alone to the syndicate main building and I'll give her back to you, then, we can settle this once and for all. I'm a man of my word", and exposed the same marble Shin had when they first located him, slammed it to the ground. Thick white smoke then emerged and none of the men that were conscious could be seen. By the time it had cleared neither Vicious nor Faye was anywhere to be found.
"I can't believe this!" yelled Jet. He walked over back to where Julia was handcuffed and pulled roughly at her collar. "You BITCH! You tell me where this 'main building' is located or I swear I'll blow your brains out!" he screamed.
Spike intervened by pushing him off of Julia. "Get a hold of yourself! I know where this main building is located", he released Jet seeing him claimed down a bit.
Coming out from behind the couch she said, "Ed and Ein wanted to help but we were so scared. What happened to Faye Faye Spike person?" Seeing he was ignoring her she glanced over to Jet. "Jet person?"
"Set a course to Callisto, Jet", commanded Spike.
"Right. Come on Ein . . . Ed I'll explain everything to you", he walked to the control room and hung his head down low.
"I guess he's upset from loosing Faye as well", spoke Julia. She saw that Spike was ignoring her and walked over to the couch and picked Eric up who had just started to cry. "How can you be so sure that kid is really yours? Who knows maybe she slept with that guy who just walked off".
"Shut it up Julia! Faye is not the whore you were or, slept with Vicious just so he could leave you in peace. She has class something that you will never have!" he yelled.
Julia turned her head away and started to cry softly. "I never met to hurt you Spike . . . I loved you more than life itself. I thought that maybe by sharing my bed with him once in a while that was a good enough reason to leave us both alone".
Spike sat across from her holding Eric in his arms. "What's done is done. There's nothing you can do to change the past".
"I wish there was a way . . . I wish there was". A few moments of silence pasted. "I never did betray you, you know".
"What difference does it make?"
"No, it does. I want you to know what happened after you were released from the hospital, why I never came to the cemetery to meet you." She took a deep breath and continued. "I did what you said: 'took a walk to clam my nerves' and decided to walk back to my old apartment and gather some important documents that recorded the number of murders Vicious had against him. I thought that we could use those documents and put him away once and for all. I soon came to realize I wasn't the only one in the apartment . . .
*FLASHBACK*
Julia sat at her desk sorting out papers and sacking them into a folder. She thought she heard footprints approaching behind her so she paused and listened carefully; however nothing could be heard so she continued. A man then came up behind her, grabbed her right arm, twisted her around, and pulled her to him.
"Hello my beautiful Julia".
"Vicious! What. . . how . . . I – I . . ."
"I understand that you're at lost for words at the moment. You of all people should know that if someone betrays me, I always get payback". He saw the folder that was in her hand and snatched it away from her. "What's this?" he asked curiously. Vicious opened the folder, read through the papers, and finally realized what it was. "What does this mean?" He pushed her down on the desk and pulled out his gun, which he held to her throat. "You were going to take these files to the police or possibly the syndicate. Isn't that right, ISN'T?" He screamed into her face.
"No! I finally recognized the fact that I have no future with Spike and I decided to come back to you, my home. That's honest truth", she lied.
"What were you going to do with the files?" he demanded.
"I, I was going to burn them. In order to prove my loyalty to you. But if you don't believe, that's just fine, please please don't hurt me", she said and then began to cry.
He set the gun aside and caressed her cheek. "My precious Julia. How can I ever hurt you when you know that I'm madly in love with you? But I will hunt Spike down".
"No! Please don't. You already have done enough harm to him. Please let him go".
"HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT?! Let him go? Are you crazy or are you trying to save him because you really love him instead, ANSWER ME! And if I were you I'd answer very carefully".
"No Vicious, I only love one man and that is you, you only".
"That's right! You belong to me and me only; soul and body . . . I have an idea. Just to prove your love and loyalty to me I want you to kill him".
"What?"
"You heard me, KILL HIM! Or should I suspect that you're lying to me?"
"Of course not. I, I will do it".
Vicious smiled. "That's my girl", he then started to kiss her lips, jaw, and neck, as he made love to her. Julia cried silently.
*END OF FLASHBACK*
"After he left my apartment I realized it was too late to meet you at the cemetery Spike. I then told Vicious that you had left the planet and I could not go after you, he, of course, believed me. I then came to the conclusion that I could not help myself so; instead I decided to sever Vicious in whatever he wanted me to do. My conscious was clear knowing you had escape far from him. A couple of months had then passed and without realizing it I began to shut down completely and turned into this emotionless cold hearted slave."
"I'm sorry for everything you had to go through, I truly am", Spike said.
"I just needed to tell you want really happened. And to let you know I did everything for you Spike because I loved you and I still do", she then let a tear slide down her cheek.
He reached up and wrapped it away.
"It seemed that destiny did not want us to be together, yet, it brought me joy because I now have a son and found a woman who I love with all my heart. And without a doubt I would gladly sacrifice my life for her".
"Faye right?" she asked sadly.
"Yes. I'm sorry you have to hear this but over these past few years the love I once felt for you has died out completely and will never return. Faye is the only woman who has and would always have my love".
"I understand . . . and for the love I still have for you I will help you get Faye back. I know the main syndicate building perfectly and the secret passageway it contains".
"Thank you Julia, that means a lot to me", he grabbed the keys to the cuffs and with one hand released her.
She sat back and stared at Spike with Eric in his arms. "He looks just like you, you know. Your twin".
"Yeah, I know. Even though he's only two months old he also has his mother's appetite so I'll be back with his bottle before he gets restless. Then we can discuss the arrangements". With that said he walked out of the living room and headed for the kitchen.
