Same goes for this act- don't own 'em, wish I did.



Act Two: Build Up- In which back a back story and a cliff hanger give the author indigestion



Spike and Jet arrived at the Saloon, but Vicious was nowhere to be seen.

The two men walked into the large room and sit down at the bar. The Bar Tender approached them.

"What can I get you two?" He asked them.

"Whisky." Spike said.

"Same here." Jet replied.

As the two waited for the Bar Tender to bring the drinks, they were approached by a woman in a frilly red dress.

"Hello Sheriff, hello Jet." She said to the two while still standing.

"Oh, if it isn't Miss Faye, what brings you to this part of the bar?" Spike asked mockingly.

The bar tender handed them their drinks and Jet took his and handed Spike his.

"Just though I'd say hello, seeing as how you're my favorite Sheriff." Faye replied sarcastically.

"I'm the only Sheriff this town has." Spike replied dryly.

"That's no way to talk to a lady!" Faye said pretending to pout.

"You're no lady." Spike inserted with a grin.

Jet chortled behind Faye's back, but the woman turned around and fixed him with a cold look.

"You'd better not laugh, Mr. Black." She said coolly, regaining her composer.

"As for you," She started, looking at Spike. "You're just angry 'cause I broke your heart." She said with a grin.

"And my leg." Spike said under his breath.

Flashback, 1 year earlier.

Spike and Faye are in a room on the second floor of the saloon, it is night time.

Spike doesn't have a shirt on and Faye's in a nightgown.

"Spike Spiegel, you're a bastard!" Faye yelled angrily at Spike.

"The only thing I am is an idiot for being interested in a hussy like you!" Spike shot back venomously.

For a moment, Faye's eyes welled up with tears, but were quickly replaced with anger, furious anger!

"How dare you call me a hussy!" Faye yelled and then pulled out her gun. She fired a shot at him.

Spike jumped out of its path and it went through the window and hit the weather vane on the roof of the building across from them and made it spin a around. Meanwhile Spike lost his balance and fell out the window and landed in the middle of the dark street

"Damned bitch!" Spike said to himself and tried to get up, but fell back down when his right leg burned with intense pain.

Spike looked up to see a tall man, with a baldhead and a pointy beard, look down at him. "Hello Spike." Jet said simply.

"Hi… Jet…" Spike managed to say.

Jet looked up at the window to see Faye turn back and walk back into the room. "I think that means she like you." Jet said with a smile.

"Get bent Jet, get bent." Spike replied painfully.

End Flashback

~~~

Jet finished his whisky. "Hey Spike, I was always wondering what you did to make that happen?" Jet asked Spike.

"Damnit Jet, why do you think it was my fault?!" Spike exclaimed in a flustered tone.

Spike and Faye quickly came to arguing with one another, which irritated Jet. "Excuse, but I'm going to go bother the piano man." Jet said and got up and walked away.

***

The Sheriff and the Saloon Owner continued to argue as Jet walked away. He came up to the piano player, who was wearing a dark frock coat and bowler hat.

"Hi Shin." Jet said as he leaned against the piano.

"Hi Jet." Shin said as he stopped playing. Got any requests?" Shin asked politely.

"Actually…" Jet began

***

Spike and Faye were both in each other's faces.

"You couldn't handle me!" Faye yelled at Spike.

"I wouldn't touch you if you begged me!" Spike responded.

"Bastard." Faye exclaimed.

"Two-bit Floozy!" Spike responded.

"Moron!" Faye said.

"Hussy!" Spike said.

Just then, Faye slapped him. Spike got angry and slapped her back. This was too much, Faye slapped him again. Spike would allow this insult and slapped her again.

This went on a few more times, and then the two looked at each other. Both were very quiet.

Suddenly the two grabbed each other and started kissing, very passionately! (^o^)

***

Shin played his piano while Jet and some other people in the bar sang (some off key, but what the hell, they're having fun. ~_^).

1.1 "Fighting Soldiers from the sky"

"Fearless men, to fight and die"

"One hundred men to try to day…"

"But only three… for the Green Beret!"

Jet was sitting on the piano next to Shin as the two sang loudly, several men around them had gotten up to join them.

***

Unknown to the others inside the bar, a lone figure sat upon the roof, listening an waiting for the perfect moment to make his move.

"That's right my little pawns… Enjoy yourselves while you still can, for this is the eve of your doom."

***

Spike and Faye stepped back from one another, after their little display.

"That was… Interesting." Faye remarked huskily.

"Yeah…" Spike agreed.

***

Meanwhile, at the Piano, Jet and Shin had started up again. Now singing "The Bohemian Rhapsody" By Queen™.

1.1.1 "I see a little silhouette-o of a man"

1.1.2 "Scaramouch, Scaramouch, can you do the Fandango?"

1.1.3 "Thunderbolts and lightning"

1.2 "Very very frightening"

"Galileo, Galileo"

"Figaro"

"Magnifico-o-o-o!"

***

No one noticed at first when the mysterious stranger stepped into the bar, but they soon did.

Everyone became silent as he passed them… He had a look about him; evil, cruel,… Vicious? (=_=)

***

Then, Jet and shin grew quiet as they recognized the evil figure.

"Oh Shit!" The two said at the same time.

***

Then, Spike saw the man before him.

"Vicious…" Spike said out loud.

"Hello Spike, it's been a long time."
