"Faye, I was wondering..." Spike questioned as he and Faye landed on the planet, Venus.
"Yeah, what is it, Spike?" Faye replied.
"Well, we're running out of Woolong, and I thought that maybe you could sing to make some money. You have a beautiful voice, and I know we can get some change. So, will you?" Spike asked as he helped Faye out of his ship.
"Well, only if you help me. I thought of the words by listening to you, so I need you to whistle in he back." Faye replied.
"Anything to get some extra Woolong..." Spike said as he grabbed some food out of his ship.
As Spike and Faye walked past the busy shops on Venus, they saw a beautiful flower.
"A Grey Ash... I think I've heard about these before..." Spike said as he tried to remember.
"It says here that they can harm some people, but not all of them. Um, that sounds depressing..." Faye said as she looked at a card displayed in front of the flower.
"I think this is the place for you to sing, Faye!" Spike said as he walked in front of a bar that had a sign reading "Free Woolong for Singers!" on it.
"A bar? Don't you think we could do a little better?" Faye asked as she looked at Spike.
"It's only natural for humans to be unsatisfied, Faye. Besides, it's just this one night! Two, at the most. What could go wrong?" Spike asked as he opened the door to the bar.
As Spike and Faye walked in, they saw groups of men sitting at different tables playing card games. They also saw drunk men, swinging their full glasses of beer around, spilling it on the floor.
"Excuse me, bar tender? We'd like to see the manager." Spike said as he and Faye sat on a stool at the bar.
"You're lookin at him. What do you kids want?" a man with missing teeth, messy hair and a dirty face asked Spike.
"We're here about the Woolong for singing. We'd like to sing here." Faye answered.
"Oh, sure! I thought you kids were lookin for a bounty. I've got one on my head, but nothing to serious. Is tonight okay with you kids?" the bar manager asked.
"That's what we were planning! We'll be here around dusk. See you later, pops!" Spike said as he and Faye got off the stools and ran out the bar.
Once again, Spike and Faye set off for a place to sleep. Unfortunately, they couldn't find any open spaces in any hotels or inns.
"Are we going to sleep in your ship, Spike?" Faye asked.
"Yeah, it looks that way. Whoa... hey, Faye, look over there!" Spike said as he pointed to a ship that looked about 10 times larger than Spike's.
"Maybe that ship's owner has extra space on his ship!" Faye said with hope in her voice.
"Let's go see!" Spike said as he ran toward the ship.
As Spike and Faye reached the ship, they saw a kid with a piece of metal under his eye. He stood against the ship with his arms crossed.
"'Cuse me, but me and my friend here were wondering if maybe you had any extra space on your ship that we could sleep?" Spike asked the kid.
"Yeah, sure I do. How many nights will you be on Venus?" the kid asked Spike.
"Maybe 2 days. We just need to make some extra Woolong. I'm Spike Spiegel, and this is Faye Valentine." Spike said as he introduced himself and Faye.
"I'm Jet Black. This is my dog, Ein. And, this is my ship, the Bebop. It has enough room to fit 3 smaller ships, and a lot of people." Jet said as he introduced himself in reply.
"Well, I've got a ship out further from town. Could I possibly store it in your ship until we leave?" Spike asked.
"Sure. What about your friend, Faye? Does she talk much?" Jet asked as he looked at Faye.
"I do talk. It's just that I haven't had anything to say." Faye responded.
"Well, go and get your ship, and we'll load it. I've got my own ship inside, plus another one I'm repairing. I've got food inside, if you're hungry." Jet said as he opened his ship and walked up the ramp, followed by Spike and Faye.
!@#$%^&*
"Well, Jet, we have to get going. We have to get to the bar by dusk, and get ready to sing, or at least Faye does. So, will you come along and watch us?" Spike asked.
"I'd love to, but I'm so busy with the ship I'm repairing. Sorry..." Jet said as he walked with Spike and Faye outside. The sky was a pink-orange color, casting a red glow on the ground. It reminded Spike about Mars.
"So, Spike... are you ready? I've got a big surprise tonight." Faye said as they reached the bar.
"Yeah, I'm ready. Let's do this..." Spike said as he once again walked to the bar.
"You're those kids from earlier? Let's get going, already!" the manager said as he practically pushed Spike and Faye up on stage. Spike was sweating and shaking, while Faye was standing perfectly still.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Here are our two singers, Spike and Faye!" the manager said on the microphone.
"Our first song is called The Real Folk Blues." Faye introduced.
As Spike began whistling, Faye began singing. (A/N: Sorry, but right now I can't find my piece of paper with the lyrics on it... 3 ^.^ 3)
When Faye finished the song, everybody in the bar clapped. It was a different crowd that earlier, so it gave Faye a nice feeling.
"No, without the help from Spike, I'm going to sing some of my favorite songs. This one's called My Best Friend." (A/N: from the Pokemon Soundtrack "2 B A Master")
"Til the end I will be with you, we will go where our dreams come true, all the times that we have been through, you will always be my best friend..." Faye sang the first verse. Spike looked at her with big eyes in the crowd, waiting to hear more.
"Here we are-on a new adventure, danger lurks- somewhere in the darkness, We are set-for surprises, even battle, we're a team-no one better mess with us!
"If we stand as one, there's nothing to fear. We'll beat the darkness, and we'll stay right here. Time after time, that's how it will be, just you and me.
"Til the end I will be with you, we will go where our dreams come true, all the times that we have been through, you will always be my best friend...
"Good friends-are those who stick together when there's sun and in the heavy weather. Smile after smile, that's how it will be, just you and me...
"Til the end I will be with you, we will go where our dreams come true, all the times that we have been through, you will always be my best friend...
"Remember, when we first met? We had such fun, I will never forget... Since then, the times are so good, we've always stuck together like best friends should...
"Til the end I will be with you, we will go where our dreams come true, all the times that we have been through, you will always my best friend..."
After Faye's solo song, everybody jumped up and clapped; Spike mostly. Somehow, he knew that song was for him. He just knew it, deep down... and he enjoyed the feeling he got when he was around her.
