AN: okay I swear this chapter will be longer and still have a cliff hanger. Don't own anything *tear*

Chapter 5: Director Vicious

Spike gasped. His head was racing he couldn't think strait he turned his head away from the screen every muscles in his neck straining as if his head and eyes didn't want to see the horrid images. "ED I'm GOING TO SLEEP NOW! NIGHT!" Spike yelled slamming the door behind him as a mirror that hung on the back fell off and shattered into a thousand pieces. He tugged at his tie and fiercely un buttoned his shirt and threw them onto the bed. The only thing he could think of was practicing. Every time he threw a punch he saw Vicious face, his cold eyes, his menacing smile. He hated him with every fiber of his being. He wanted to kill him watch him suffer, watch his ruby red blood spill onto his hands. Ruby.red.Spike's eyes suddenly softened, ruby red lips.of Faye. He shook his head trying to get her out of his head, he was angry he needed to use that anger. Suddenly his vision of Faye and her luscious red lips turned to Vicious straggling her and her lips never moving again. He couldn't let that happened and he kept punching and kick the air as beads of sweat formed on his brow and flew of his fist as he thrust one up in a right upper cut. In his mind he kept seeing the bullet flying through the air and embedding itself in Faye's heart, his bullet from his gun. Spike shut his eyes continuing to "kick the airs ass." (teehee O.o just had to put that in there)

*St. Mary's Cathedral*

"What do you want Vicious?" Faye yelled her arms restrained by electronic hand cuff to the wall. Vicious got up from the rock he had been sitting on, the really creepy bird he has flew up into the air squawking in it's high shrill tone. He walked over to her, "Miss Valentine first of all you are a pre cog, MY pre cog! And second you little lover boy fucked with my wife and this is my revenge." Vicious told her slamming his fist into the brick wall close to Faye's head sending bits of the rock flying cutting her face. She would give him the satisfaction of crying out she grit her teeth and spat in his face. "You wish you hadn't done that Miss Valentine." Vicious said raising the hilt of his sword and once again knocking her out cold. "Bitch." He murmured walking back over to the stone. Even if Faye was out cold a single tear found it's way out of the corner of her eye and rolled down her cheek slowly and dropping of her chin staining a small part of her red jacked slightly darker.

*Ed/Faye's Apartment*

Spike had been practicing all night and had finally collapsed onto Faye's bed, his senses filled with her jasmine sent. He was still conscious but he couldn't move a muscle, it was hard to breath. He had pushed him self too far, his shoulder was bleeding profusely but Faye's bandages held tight and kept the blood from running down his arm. He stared up at the ceiling thinking. "Faye.." he whispered images flashing in his left eye as the right looked up at the blank ceiling. 'What if I never see her again, what if that bastard killed her, what if she.she' He could continue his though. For the first time in his entire life a tear (I know extremely occ but it's kind touching and it won't happen again.), a single tear that he had been hoping wouldn't fall but he couldn't control it, fell. He finally moved after what seemed like forever and rolled on to his side.

Ed was in the living room with Ein watching T.V. "Faye-Faye was kidnapped." Ed told Ein patting him with her bandaged hand. That shock from her computer earlier that day had really burned and then when she had made dinner she had touched the hot pan and burned her fingerprints right off. (I did that once it her like hell damn science shit!) She pulled a blanket on to her lap and slumped over to rest her head on a pillow at the end of the couch. Ein whimpered and jumped off the couch and changed the channel to the news. "Today the first murders in 5 years occurred when a former Pre Cop, Spike Spiegel, came into the pre cop central and killed a man and kidnapped a pre cog. And if that wasn't enough he threw a grenade into the room monitoring the pre cogs life waves and visions, killing them all." A blond haired woman on the news said smiling even thought the topic she was discussing was horridly gruesome.

*6:OO am, GO TIME*

Spike jolted out of bed after his watch went off, "2 hours and 10 minutes till murder." It beeped as he quickly picked up his shirt and tugged it on ignoring the unbearable pain it caused him. He then picked up his black tie and put it around his neck and pulled it secure. He turned to the jacked and pulled it over his broad shoulders. He walked to the door and stepped on the glass. "Shit!" he mumbled pulling his foot up, but lucky for him he was wearing his boot so only a little bit embedded it's self in his foot. Ed was still asleep on the couch when Spike walked out of Faye's room. He saw her a smiled as he walked over and patted her head picking up the sleeping girl and taking her to her own room. He placed her on her own bed and barely made it out of the messy room tripping over a pizza box or two in the process. "See you space cowboy." Ed mumbled in her sleep turning over. Spike smiled as he reached the front door. He picked up his jacket and put it on as he walked up the stairs. The door leading to the stair way slammed close then almost immediately it was thrown open. "Spikey where are you going?" Ed's voice cut into his thoughts as he stopped in his tracks not looking back. "To get Faye." He said simply as Ed asked him how he knew where she was. "Vicious left a letter." He said once again in a cold voice emotionless as he once again began walking up the title stairs. "Don't get your self killed okay Spikey other wise Ed will have to come and kick your ass!" Ed said crossing her arms in a very Faye like fashion that Spike smiled. "I see if you live with her long enough you pick up bad habits Ed." Then with out another word he walked up the stairs to the roof and took off into the still dark sky.

As he flew to the cathedral he thought about what he might do and decided to play it by ear. He looked out at the dawning of what might be is last day to ever breath, ever see the light of day, ever see her loving face smiling down at him. He kept flying as his watch beeped "30 minuets till murder." It was getting close to 8:00 am and he hit the accelerators and sped off even faster if possible. All the sudden a face popped up on the intercom screen in the Swordfish ll. "SPIKE WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOIN?" Jet yelled slamming his fist on his table causing the picture to shake slightly. "Jet this has nothing to do with you! I'm going after Faye." He said his hand going to "hang up" but before he did Jet replied, "What are you talking about Spike? Faye was kidnapped 5 years ago remember." Spike looked at the picture and told him about what Ed had figured out and about Faye being a pre cog. "Well buddy it seems you've got your hands full. So tell me why you're going off to get your self killed?" This time Spike didn't stop but hit the button and Jet's angry face vanished from site. "25 minuets till murder, 8:00 am." Spike's watch told him as he jumped out of the Swordfish ll.

*Top Balcony-ish Floor*

"Hmmm it looks like Spike isn't coming for you Miss Would-be-Spiegel." Vicious spat. Faye's face fell realizing the horrible truth, 'why did I slap him not once but TWICE even. He probably hate's me now and isn't coming for me ooooooo that son of a bitch is gonna hear it when I find him!' Faye though trying to make her self-tough so Vicious wouldn't see the hurt and pain and suffering in her emerald eyes. "HE'S COMING!" Faye screamed as the whole Cathedral shook.

*Spike Lower Level*

Spike ran into the Cathedral and pulled out his gun and looked around into the vas darkness around him. Then he heard a bullet wiz by his ear and he moved behind a pillar. He dug his hand in his trench coat pocket and found what he was looking for, a grenade in fact not only one but two of the explosive devices. He pulled the pin out with his teeth and threw it behind is head and ducked as the debris flew pass him protected by the pillar. He repeated this causing the whole Cathedral to shake. He then ran to another pillar dodging bullets the entire time. Then he saw what he was looking for, the stairs. He knew Vicious would be on the highest floor. He darted to them taking out three snipers on the way.

*Top Balcony (like from Ballad of Fallen Angel) Thing*

"HA! I told you he wouldn't leave me!" Faye said relieved and now smiling triumphantly as if they had already won and gotten away from the evil claws of Vicious. "Shut Up Slut!" Vicious yelled turning on Faye his eyes full of hate and vengeance. Then Faye heard the click of a mag. falling out of a gun and reloading coming from the stairs. Vicious ran in front of Faye blocking her from view as Spike walked up the stairs like a dark shadow being slowly reviled by the dawning like breaking through the stain glass window casting a red and blue glow about his features. His eyes where full of disgust and loathing for the being that stood before him. He wanted to see his blood spill out of him he wanted to watch as he writhed in pain he wanted him to DIE! At this thought Spike lunged forward as Vicious sword cut his cheek and Spike's fire was diverted and hit somewhere on the ceiling. "2 minutes till murder." Spike's watch sounded as he backed away from Vicious and demanded to see Faye. "You'll see her in hmm what was it 2 minutes right before you kill her." Vicious said taking another swing at Spike as he jumped back. "1 minute till murder." "I will win Mr. Spiegel!" "45 seconds." "You and your girlfriend will both die!" "15 seconds till murder" Vicious stopped advancing as Spike took aim and fired what would be a fatal shot. "5.." Vicious moved out of the way with a flourish revealing Faye chained to the wall right in the path of the bullet. "4.." it moved closer as Spike's eyes widened "3.." He gasped for air as Faye took in her last breath "2.." "Spike!!!!!!!!!!" She cried and "1..beep beep beep." Blood flew from Faye's chest as she stopped moving and her head went limp. Spike couldn't hear it was as if someone had hit the mute button all he saw was Faye. He just looked at her horrified at what he had done before his whole world went black as he saw Vicious hilt collide with the side of Spike's head.

Vicious walked over the unconscious Faye and pulled her jacket open reviling the bulletproof vest that lie beneath. He pulled the Velcro open as the bullet hit the floor along with a (you know the special effects stuff that makes it look like someone was shot) cap that had gone off spewing fake blood, V8 Juice, all over the place. The reason she had gone limp was because the sheer force of the bullet hitting her winded her and knocked her out. He pulled out the key from his pocket and picked her up and walked back over to the passed out Spike. (Like in the movie those head thingys) Vicious pulled out a plastic half band with padded circles on the end. He hit the button in the middle and the ends shot out creating an almost full circle. He placed this around Spike's head as his eyes shot open and then glazed over with a filmy white color. Vicious then too picked up Spike and walked down the steps. When he got to the first level some of his men took Faye and drove off. Vicious walked out side of the Cathedral and pulled out a remote with a big red button in it. "Ka booom!" Vicious yelled as he slammed his thumb down on the button setting off several pounds of C-4. He was at a save distance in a Rolls-Royce as he instructed his driver to take him to Pre Cops Headquarters.

*Pre Cops Headquarters*

Vicious got out of the Rolls and pulled Spike along with him as he trudged up the many steps of the building. Upon entering the building he was greeted by the receptionist. "Good Morning Mr. Vicious what can I do ya for?" She asked grinning not seeing an unconscious Spike. "Well.Victoria" he said squinting to see her name tag, "I need you to call some men from Sedation, I've got another criminal to add to their collection." He said now pulling a bleeding, and helpless Spike up by the collar of his trench coat. She gasped and dialed the number.

After waiting several uncomfortable minutes with Mrs. Turpskuteh (I'm not sure how to spell her name so sorry) Vicious finally spotted the men from Sedation. He turned to her and flashed one hell of a creepy smile he walked over to the men. "Here ya go guys, Spike Spiegel, murder of Faye Valentine." He told them as the walked off dragging his shell of a body. He then decided to check on the lovely Faye.

*Temple/Mainframe Room*

Vicious looked into the retinal scanner as he was granted access to the Temple. He casually walked in and looked around at a young man placing Faye back into the pool once again dressed in the "pre cog uniform" her bruise covered by the thin material. "Ahh Mr. Vicious." The young man said getting up from the pool. "Isn't it wonderful to have them back together so now we can do our jobs." The man said looking over the three pre cogs. "Yes it certainly is." Vicious said smiling sadistically. He turned to leave as the young man said something about what had happened to her. "Don't you know she was kidnapped." Vicious commented walking out the door of the Temple. "Ahh Now to see Mr. Spiegel." Vicious sighed walking down the stairs to the elevator. He hit the down button and walked into the elevator and punched the button for the lowest floor as he placed his hands in his pockets. "Ding" the elevator sounded as it reached it's destination and Vicious stepped out turning right. He could hear the haunting melody of the organ being played by the man who kept the criminals in their sedation tubes frozen for all time as their punishment. "Rocco, you crazy kid still playing the organ to keep them company eh?" Vicious muttered to himself reaching the source of the music, which had abruptly stopped. "Oh okay well there's a free tube open for him over there." Rocco said pointing to a circle in the floor with a board sticking up with names lit up on it. He hit a button and it began to raise only one tube though. The men Vicious had given Spike to placed him in it and hooked him up to the system. Vicious watched, as the tube once again returned to it's original position in the floor and "ding!" the light went off illuminating the newest member to the living dead "Spike Spiegel."

"Nice work Rocco." Vicious said as he patted the young man's shoulder. Rocco jumped at the icy touch he could feel even through his clothes. "Oh Thanks Mr. Vicious." He said clutching his chest and turning around to face Vicious. "Would you like to go for some late breakfast Rocco?" Vicious asked putting his arm around the young mans shoulders. "Sure Mr. Vicious." He said afraid of what might happen if he declined. They walked out of the Sedation room and down the hall.

The rest of the day went smoothly like every day nothing special.

*Temple/Mainframe Room, Midnight*

The halls where silent, the keys on the computers didn't click, the watches of murders to be didn't beep. It was dead silent except for Faye's brain working a million miles an hour. She kept saying his name over and over again, "Spike, Spike." Her eyes flashed open, this time she knew who she was and what she had to do so she closed her eyes and used her connection to the mainframe computer to her advantage. The problem was Ed was the only one who could hack in to something as complicated as the Sedation system. Or was she????????????????? ************************************************************************
