The survivors are opening boxes and prying open crates. A lot of what they find is bullshit. Pantyhose, porno mags, etc. But a few of the boxes are justwhat the doctor ordered. Casses from a sporting good supplier yield a shipment of baseball bats. Mean't to arrives in sporting good stores are a shipment of fencing swords and a box of baseballs. And captured en route to a weapon stores are shipments of swords, shotguns and claws. Spike and Edward saw the bats into wooden stakes. Julia fills up the shotgun with shotgun shells. Faye, with Spike's knife, etches a cross into every bullet in the .45 automatic's last clip of ammunition. Vampires all start converging on the back room door, getting their courage back. Julia finishes up making the shotgun shells. Edward sharpens he stakes to a point with the tools. Spike attaches a wooden stake to the end of a jackhammer. Faye blesses the bullets in the .45 automatic turning it into holy bullets. Our heroes work together, preparing for the battle to come. The back room door, barricaded with crates and boxes, begins to be pounded on by the undead on the other side. The room tone is a combination of chewing, scratching, pounding, squeaking and screaming. and now Spike Spiegel, Faye Valentine, Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV, and Julia are finally ready to tear the shit out of the vampire enemy.
'Before we go any further, I need you three to promise me something. I'll fight with you to the bitter end, but when I turn into one of them, I won't be Edward anymore. I'll be a lap dog from hell. I want you three to promise you'll take me down, no different from the rest.' Edward said to her friends.
'I promise, Edward.' Spike said but the other can't say the words.
'Faye, Julia?' Edward asked.
'We promise.' they both answer but Edward doesn't believe them as she picks up the ..45.
'Why don't I believe you two? I'm gonna ask you two again, then I want you to swear to God that you'll kill me. If you don't, I'm gonna just kill myself right now. Now, since you need me I think you better swear. Julia, do you swear to God that when I turn into one of the undead, you'll kill me?' Julia doesn't answer. Edward places the .45 barrel against her temple. 'Julia, we don't have all day, so I'm gonna count to five. One... two... three... four...'
'Okay, okay, I promise I'll do it!' Julia answered
'Not good enough, swear to God.'
'I swear to God, our friend, that when you change into of the vampires, I will kill you.' Julia said.
'Good girl. Now, Faye, we have even less time, so I'm only giving you the count of three. One...'
'You don't believe in suicidal courses.' Faye said.
'It's not a suicidal course if you're already dead. Two...'
'Okay, I'll kill you when you change, I swear to God.'
'Thank you, Faye.'
'Okay, vampire killers, let's kill some motherfucking vampires.'
The vampires, start breaking down the door. They are in a mad frenzy. They burst through the door. Waiting for them are Julia and Faye holding samurai swords and shotguns. Edward is holding a cross made of sharp wooden stakes and the .45 with the cross bullets. Spike is holding the jackhammer. The survivors walk out of the backroom into the bar. The vampires back up, letting them inside. What we have here is a Venus standoff, a la "The Fucking Wild Bunch." A moment of peace before the battle The vampires just watch the humans. The humans just watch the vampires. Then, like the bull in the japan shop, Spike ends the peace by starting up the jackhammer. 'Kill them all! Leave no surviving vampire!' Spike shouted.
Edward holds up the cross, the vampires react. Faye shoots the vampires with the shotgun and Julia stabs them in the heart with the samurai sword, burning vampire flesh. The pack of vampires retreat while the Bebop squad walk forward. They are attacked on all sides, but they keep moving towards the door. Spike slams the stakes into several of the vampires, it speeds in and out of the vampire chests, each time spraying him in green vampire blood. Edward shoves his cross stake into a vampire with one hand and shoots three vampires with blessed bullets with the other. Flame bursts from the vampires' chests when the bullets hit. Julia and Faye both attack the vampire crowd head on. They burst and fry several of the vampires, who fall, screaming in pain. From it's perch on a wood ceiling beam, a vampire drops and hurls toward the Bebop group. Edward sees it, raises her gun and fires. The vampire bursts into a ball of screaming fire. Spike continues carving a path to the front door by slamming the hammer stake into vampire chests. The front door is barricaded again by a big table and loads of chairs.
'Why did they block the door again?' Faye yelled out.
'To Keep the daylight out! This is where they sleep! Get to the door!' Edward yelled out.
Spike tries to get to the front door, when Carlos, now a half bat, half devil vampire, about six foot seven, drops from above in front of him. Spike rams the stake in it's chest. The Carlos-vampire screams out, lifting the hammer and Spike off the ground. Spike is thrown from his hold on the hammer across the room, he crashes into a table. The Carlos-vampire falls back with the jackhammer sticking out of his chest, dead. Julia, shooting shotgun fire, sees Spike fall. 'Spike!' she screamed. Spike quickly gets up to find himself surrounded by vampires on all sides. With no weapons, he puts up his dukes.
'Okay, fuckers, come on! Take a bite and feel all right!' Julia clusters with Faye and Edward.
'I'm going for them!' Julia yelled out.
'No!' Edward yelled back.
'Everybodies going home!' Julia turns into a shotgun firing, one-woman army as she breaks from her friend Edward and heads in Spike's direction. Julia mows down the group by Spike, they lie on the floor, burning in agony. Julia takes Spike's hand and gives him a wooden stake. Cutting through vampires, the two make their way across the bar. Edward, firing the .45, takes out several more vampires in fiery death. Faye stabs the vampires with the samurai sword. As Edward fights, all of a sudden the sound goes out. She can't hear anything. She wonders if she's gone deaf. She starts to hear the words: "Thirst, thirst, thirst." She notices the vampires have stopped attacking her. They look at her with happy smiles on their devilish faces. Fangs begin to grow, Her eyes are now turned yellow. Faye turns to her friend. She sees Edward is a monster. Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV, with a devilish grin on her face, grabs Faye Valentine and tries to sink her teeth into Faye's forearm. Faye take the samurai sword and cuts Edward's head off. She let's go of Faye, screaming, and drops the .45 on the floor. Faye picks up the gun. She brings it up to fire. A totally evil Edward, with no head, matches a stand with the girl she once called her friend. Faye's eyes turn to steel. 'I swear to God.' Faye said as she fires, sending a holy bullet into Edward's heart, creating a hole from which fire shoots out, Edward's entire body bursts into flames, then explodes. From across the room, Julia sees her friend ignite. She cries out. In thick of the battle. 'Fight now, cry later!' Spike yelled.
Julia takes his advice and hits a vampire square in the face with the shotgun. A vampire lands on the back of Faye's neck. trying to get a good chance of biting her. She points the .45 into the vampire's head. Julia sees Faye in trouble. Julia runs for Faye, does a dive and a roll, coming up by the .45, snatching it in one motion and firing three times at the vampires. One... two... three... four... five vampires are hit, shoot flames, all of them explode giving Faye a chance to escape. The remaining vampires approach. All the humans have left is a few bullets, shotgun shells, and the samurai sword.
'How many bullets left, Faye?'
'Not many.'
'Well, when you run out of weapons, just start cold cocking them, Make them sing for their supper.' The three survivors are backed up against a wall. Two vampires do a Kamikaze dive from the air toward Spike. Spike shoots at them with the shotgun. Direct hit. The two vampires burst into flames and spiral to the floor. The three survivors look at the vampires, who stand before them. A moment of stillness before the attack. Julia stands holding the samurai sword outstretched. 'Should I use the last bullets on us?' Faye asked.
'You use them on the first couple of these bloodsucking parasites that fucking try to bite you.' The vampires begin to close in. Faye lines up the .45 sights on the face of an approaching vampire. Spike holds the shotgun like a club, ready to bash in the first vampire's head that gets in swinging distance. Beams of sunlight shoot through the holes that Faye shot through the wall. Approaching vampires burn. The scorched vampires scream like they've never screamed before. 'Quick Faye, shoot more holes!' Spike said as Faye turns from the vampires and shoots holes in the wall behind him, Daylight comes through, providing Julia, Faye, and Spike with a safe, lighted area. The .45's empty.
The vampires hiss and scream at the frustration of not being able to get at the Bebop group. The three survivors holds hands, when.. All of a sudden the door to the Venus is pounded on from the outside. The vampires look towards it in horror and begin exploding one by one. The three survivors run straight out the door top speed as the Venus Twister begins to burst into flames. From outside of the door, Mao Yenrai and his men appear outside. 'What the fuck- was going on in - there?' Mao said to Spike. he signals Mao to wait a minute while they catch their breath. Then Spike hauls off and roundhouse kicks Mao square in the kisser. His men aimed their shotguns at Spike. 'Whats the matter with you, Spike? Are you insane?' He asked him.
'Why the fuck, out of all the god forsaken shitholes in Venus, did you have us rendezvous at that place?' Spike asked Mao.
'I don't know, one place's as good as another.' Mao answered.
'Have you ever been there before?'
'No, but I drove by it a couple of times. It's a rowdy place, It's been in the middle of nowhere, so there wouldn't be a lot of police. And it's open from Dusk till Dawn. You said meet you in the morning, so here we are.' Mao explained.
'Well, because you picked that place out of hat, my partner Jet Black is dead now. And those two's best fucking friend is dead.' Spike said as Mao Yenrai stands up again.
'I'm sorry to hear that. What were they, psychos?'
'Did they look like psychos to you? Is that what you think? They were fucking vampires, Mao. Psychos..Psychos don't explode when sunlight hits'em, I don't fucking care how crazy they are.' Mao's men react to the vampire news by crossing themselves again.
'Oh, Spike Spiegel, how can I ever make it up to you?'
'You can't, but fifteen percent instead of thirty for my stay at Venus is a good start.'
'Twenty-eight.'
'Jesus fucking Christ, Mao, Jet Black's dead and he's not coming back, and it's all your fault. Twenty.' Spike argued. They look at each other, then shakes hands, saying in unison: 'Twenty-five.' Faye Valentine gets the suitcase and gives Mao 25%. Spike walks over to the new and improved Bebop Ship. 'You like the ship?' he asked Spike.
'I said new, this is an improved version of our old ship. It's hardly been used at all. I got it from a worthless thug who only drove it 8 times in as many years.'
'OK. So, you'll follow us?'
'Sure Mao, wait a minute.' Spike takes a few stacks of woolong from the suitcase and walks over to Faye Valentine and Julia. 'Here you two, take this.'
'Can we come with you, Spike?' Julia asked.
'Faye, Julia, do you know where i'm going, do you even know where it is?' he asked.
'No but we could use some company.' Faye answered. Spike thought for a moment and said.
'Alright you can come along, guys.' Julia and Faye smiled at Spike's request. Julia walked over to Spike and kisses him in the lips softly. 'Thank you, Spike Spiegel.'
'Good luck my friends.' Spike hops into the new improved Bebop Ship. Julia and Faye hops into their cargo ship and follows them, driving off. the back of the Venus Twister was really an Aztec temple. Evidently the vampires killed off the ancient priests of the temple and took over their bar. Rusted ships are thrown in the pit behind the cursed bar of hell.
The End
