Chapter 4 And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune

Then the piper will lead us to reason

And a new day will dawn for those who stand long

And the forest will echo with laughter

"So that's it? I already knew that..." Spike sighed as he lit a cigarette

"So give Ed candy!" she said with a smile

"Fine, here," he shoved the bag over to Ed, she grabbed it and ran off yelling

happily

"That's it, I'm gonna talk to him right now," Spike went over to the monitor and

reached Starwind and Hawking

"Hello, Aisha here!" She said smiling showing her fang.

Spike fell over and sat up again "What the HELL are you?!?!"

"You don't seem like someone who's scared by a Ctarl-Ctarl!" she laughed "You

must be Spike!"

"Uh...what are you? And where's Gene?"

"I'M A CTARL-CTARL!! ARE YOU DEAF?!?!?!" Aisha yelled at Spike and

held the side of the monitor.

"I'm sorry!" Spike said with a smile "Just let me talk to Gene..."

"Gene? Gene's not here!" she said showing one of her erm...canine teeth.

"WELL WHERE THE HELL IS HE?!?!" Spike yelled angrily

"Sheesh...sorry mister 'I don't need anger management'" Aisha mumbled

"Hey I-" Spike began

"HIIIIIIII!!" Ed's voice sang

"Who's that?" Aisha asked confused

"ED IS ED!" she yelled annoyingly over Spike's shoulder

"Who is Ed? MROW?!" Aisha mewed

Spike grabbed the top of Ed's head and threw her clear to the other side of the

Room. Ed was defying gravity until she found a wall, and with an unpleasant thud I

might add.

"Now um...Aisha...PLEASE tell me where Gene is..."

Before Aisha could answer, a loud crash was heard over the tele-vid and they both

ducked down in fear of what it was. Spike looked up, and to his surprise, Ed had not

tripped Jet's bonsai's as she had done once, and Jet still hasn't shut up about it.

Spike looked up and saw an angry Gene storming through the Bebop door and Jet

coming up behind him with a "YOU'RE GONNA PAY FOR THAT!" look on his face.

As I said, Aisha ducked as well, and coming into Starwind and Hawking was an

angry Faye with Jim trying to get her to leave politly.

Spike pulled his gun out and stood up at the same moment as Gene did the same.

"Where the Hell are you from Spike?" Gene asked sternly "And why is that

woman of yours trying to mock me???"

"Why are you so interested?" Spike asked with a disgusted face at the thought of

Faye being "His"

"Your ship is obviously alienated and I don't trust you or your ship"

Spike relieved his gunpoint, flipped it around a couple times and set it on the table

"I come from Mars, think of me as a little green man, or like that old cartoon...you know

the one from the 20th century? Cartoon classics are the best if I do say myself...." Spike

said still smirking

Gene hesitated for a moment, swung his gun around and put it in the holster and

Smirked. "Your hair reflects it I guess..."

A look of pure annoyance went over Spikes face as Ed walked over to Gene.

"Gene-person come back mysterious space creature Spike-person?" Ed asked with

her trademark Cheshire grin.

Gene made a low groan at her laughs. At the same time Jet had run in with two

grocery bags and a carton of cigarettes in his hands.

"It's Jet The Bonsai Man!!" Ed said with her own little squeaky voice

At that time a loud scream was heard over the tele-vid that had been on the whole

Time. Spike looked over to see Faye upside down against a wall and Aisha laughing

with a dumbfounded Jim in the background.

-_-_-What had been happening at Starwind and Hawking the whole time-_-_-

As Faye crashed through the door, Jim and Aisha both stared at her confused.

"Alright! Where's Gene?!" She yelled annoyed "He turned down an offer he

couldn't refuse!"

Aisha cocked her head to the side and "mewed" confused.

"You offered him sex?" Jim said with his jaw practically falling to the floor

"GAH! NO!" Faye said with wide dumbfounded eyes and a disgusted look on her

face "I offered him a lifetime membership to weight watchers! Everybody loves

Weight watchers!"

Jim laughed uneasily "wouldn't you be offended if someone offered you

a...LIFETIME membership to WEIGHTWATCHERS?!"

"I would just feel as though they were looking out for me and making sure that I

keep my beautiful-God-like body and not get fat along with my age, I would feel so loved

if someone wanted to look out for little ole' me" she said smiling and talking sweetly like

the innocent person she plays to be.

"The God of Buddha..." Aisha mumbled under her breath, unfortunately loud

enough for Faye to hear.

Faye growled "You think I'm fat?!"

"That outfit you've got on isn't helping either," Aisha said with a smirk showing

her canine (?) tooth.

"Oh like you've got the perfect body you missing link?! Try shaving once every

now and then, it's called a razor, sanitized people use them..."

"I'M A CTARL CTARL!!"

"A whaaa-?"

"That's right, the most powerful species in the universe and you're about to get a

taste of it..."

"Aisha don't-" Jim said trying not to make her too mad

"You stay out of this! This is a fight for girls!" Aisha said angrily

"A fight for cats you mean" Jim thought as he displayed a look on his face like he

was sorry.

With that, Aisha lunged at Faye with her fist out though Faye dodged it and came

around with a punch of her own, but Aisha was too fast, ducked and round kicked Faye

into a wall. This in turn, is what the Bebop members heard on the tele-vid.

Ed blinked and looked at the tele-vid "Fay Faye go bai bai..."

"She's not dead!" Jet said annoyed

"That's what Bebop members and Gene-person thinks, but looks may be

Deceiving young Jet!" Ed said with a look of innocent ignorance on her face and began to

run around the Bebop andsing the death march using the words "Faye Faye go boom, bai

bai dead dead dead Faye Faye..."

Jet sighed "Well at least she think I'm young..."

"Hey Jet..." Spike began

"What is it Spike?"

"That was a quote from an old movie...from when they used VCR's...and she-"

"I know Spike..."

"Then why did you...?"

"No reason"

"If you say so,"

"Spike I need to ask you a question," Gene said figuring this was an important

time to interrupt

"What?" Spike asked annoyed for his attention to be turned from Jet to the source

of his stress

"Did you ever know you father?"

Spike perked a brow "Why do you ask and what business is it of yours may I

ask?"

"No reason..." Gene said with a smirk "I'll be leaving now, I'll get Faye back to

you...soon...maybe...Until then, I'll see you...Space Cowboy ,"
