hello minna! yay, finally, the NEW installment of A Pleasant Dream! Please r/r, I will gladly take all advice ^_^ Hope you like it!
The night conveyed a comforting silence, relaxing Faye. She laid in her bed, in pure bliss. The day had been fun. After swimming, Faye got to tan with Julia while Ed would occasionally drip her strawberry icecream on them. It caused squealing and playful threats, and the whimpering of a confused Ein. Spike and Jet just looked at the newspaper, sipping on their iced tea, chuckling at the antics of Ed. Who was this Faye that no one knew before?
She was definitely out of character... yet could that be a good thing?
*It was wierd... I've never felt such happiness. I think I have realized what it's like to... to trust someone* she thought.
*TRUST SOMEONE?! Me? Faye Valentine? Trust someone? Couldn't be... I was just having fun* she tried to assure her self again.
She sighed deeply, turning over on her right side, snuggling her head in to the pillow. *Why must I continue thinking these thoughts, denying the fact that I was actually a normal, playful person for once? That my past self finally emerged on my outside? What's so horribly wrong with that? I can't understand my self, and I never will. Oh well, I don't think I was meant to be understood, I'm just Faye Valentine... Queen of Hearts, Ace, Sure Shot, Poker Alice...* she thought, as her mind slowly shut it's conscious self down, and she drifted off in to a slumber.
As she started to emerge in to reality, she realized something was terribly wrong. What was it that she felt? She wasn't fully conscious yet, and wasn't sure what was happening. Her heart pounded as she rubbed her eyes and then she realized what had happened.
"Holy shit, I'm in HELL?" Well, at least she THOUGHT she did. The room was bright red and there were no windows, just one door which mached the color of the room.
"Wait, I can't be in hell, hell has flames," she reminded her self. She was on a cold floor.
"Where the hell AM I?" she exclaimed. Her heart started to pound... *what if I was kidnapped by a serial killer, what if I'm going to DIE? I knew my stupid, fucked up life would just go down the fuckin' drain just when it started to get fuckin good!* But before she could think anything else, the door opened...
A young man, about Spike's age, walked in. He had emerald green eyes and dark purple hair just like Faye's. He even had her skin tone and everything!
"Who are you?" she asked, inching away, a bit frightened.
"You look just like me..." she trailed off, and then it hit her. She gasped, putting her hand in front of her mouth.
"No, I'm not your brother," assured the man, putting Faye's worries to ease.
"Then who ARE you? I mean, you look just like me. You have my eyes, hair, and that annoying intimidating look!"
That man laughed. "Well, something are better left to be said... later. My name is Ryo," he said, holding his hand out. Faye merely looked at it, but did not shake it. He pulled it away, a bit offended.
"No last name?" asked Faye.
"Nope," he replied.
"Look, you know what? I don't know who you are, I want to go back to the Bebop! My friends, they're prob-" but he interrupted her.
"Your friends? I thought that you were just using them for the hospitality. I thought you were all alone and that you had a screwed up life."
Faye gasped, backing away.
"How the hell do YOU know?"
He sighed. "Faye, just let me talk to you," he told her.
She hesitated, but finally sighed in defeat.
"Ok, I might as well," she replied.
"I left your 'friends' a note, merely saying you went on vacation to Pluto, and signed it from you."
"WHAT?" screeched Faye. "You BASTARD! They're going to think I'm even lazier and bitchier then they already DO! Or than I already AM! What if you're going to do something horrible to me, and they won't have a clue! I hate you! I HATE YOU!"
She had a malicious look in her eye, and she was breathing heavily, her lower lip quivering out of her anger.
"Much anger," Ryo commented, amusingly.
"You find this funny," she said.
She looked up at the ceiling. "Oh god just shoot me now," she muttered softly.
"Stop it," said Ryo firmly.
"So, where ARE we?" asked Faye.
"In my mansion on the Kinto Mountains of Venus," he told her.
"MANSION?" exclaimed Faye in disbelief.
"Again, something to be explained later... why don't you come now, I'll show your around," he said.
Faye rolled her eyes. *Oh god... everything is RUINED! I hate everything... my life, everything. Maybe I can run away?* she thought.
*That will be planned during the night. Now, to take advantage of rich boy here* she thought again, mischeviously, following Ryo.
