The real folks blues
I only want to know what true sadness is
Sitting in muddy water
Isn't such a bad life
If it ends after the first time

Chapter 3
"Sir, we have him surrounded." The police officer called into his radio. "There's no escaping. We'll have him to the station in ten minutes tops."
Gohan looked around the area. He was surrounded by the police officers. A few had found him trying to escape the city, and called for back up. Gohan didn't want to hurt them. He really didn't. One side of him said to give up, while the other one told him to put up a fight. God, he hated the two sides of him. His human side and Saya-Jin side hated each other. They tore at each other, fighting for control sometimes. Gohan fought himself hard not to let his Saya-Jin side take control. He liked his human self. The side that didn't fight.
"Son Gohan, we know that you are Saiya-man. You are charged for manslaughter. Come with us."
"No…I didn't…Saiya-man did…not me…"
"One of our men is going to come over to you very slowly. Do not move."
"But it was an accident!"
The policeman walked over to Gohan slowly. He took out his handcuffs and was about to cuff Gohan.
"Attack him."
"No, you can't. You did this, now you have to pay for it."
There it was again. The constant bickering going on inside himself was getting on his nerves. He fought hard. He didn't want to give in.
"Listen Gohan. You attack on the count of three. One…two…THREE!"
Gohan screamed and powered up, knocking the police man unconscious. He then blasted each policeman and car with small ki blast. Soon dead men surrounded him. Gohan screamed as his rage rose. What did he do? This wasn't Gohan anymore. It was a monster. Gohan would never do anything like this…
~*~
"I didn't do it!" Gohan screamed. He sat up and looked at his surroundings. He was on a couch. Stairs led up to a raised platform, which led to different rooms. A television was on the table in front of him. A dog laid in the corner, and a girl—or at least, he thought it was a girl—playing some sort of virtual chess.
"Oh you're awake."
Gohan jumped when he heard the voice. He looked over the couch at the woman standing in front of him. She had purple hair that came down to her shoulders. Her shirt was yellow, and tied up so that her stomach showed. She also wore mini shorts, and suspenders. She smiled at Gohan and sat down on the table in front of him.
"Who are you? Where am I?" Gohan asked, looking around.
"My name is Faye. Faye Valentine." She outstretched her hand. Gohan took it and shook it. "What's you're name stranger?"
"It's…it's Son Gohan. Where am I?"
"You're on the Cowboy Bebop. Let me show you who's around here. The girl playing virtual chess." Faye pointed over to her left. "Her name is Edward, but we call her Ed. We don't know why she has a boy's name. We kind of just found her." She then pointed to the dog. "That mutt is Ein. I hate dogs, but Jet likes them. He was here before me."
"Who's Jet?"
Faye laughed. "I guess it would be nice if you met the rest of the crew." She cupped her hands around her mouth. "Hey Jet! He's up!"
Jet walked out of the kitchen. He still had his apron on, and was tossing vegetables in a frying pan. Gohan looked at him. He was tall with gray hair, and had an artificial arm.
"Hey man, hope the witch didn't wake you up."
"WHAT DID YOU SAY JET?"
"Nothing…calm down. Anyway, My name's Jet Black. I'm the captain of the Bebop."
"Name's Gohan."
"Well then Gohan. Maybe we should give you something to eat."
Gohan jumped up excitedly. "Yeah! That would be great!" His smile turned into a frown as he winced in pain. He felt his head. There was a bloody bandage wrapped around his forehead. He decided to concentrate on eating instead of the pain. It would make life easier. Jet walked away, but soon returned with a plate full of noodles and vegetables.
"Sorry that we don't have much. Someone gambled just about all our money at the casino last week." He glared at Faye.
"Well sorry! I thought I was going to get more money. I really did." Faye looked at Jet apologetically.
Jet rolled his eyes and took a small portion of the food. He left the rest for Gohan. Gohan grabbed the plate and started to devour it.
"Wow…you eat faster than Spike…" Jet blinked several times. On Gohan's second serving, Faye got up and walked up the stairs.
"Spike!" She called out.
"I'm working out! Leave me alone!"
"But Spike! The new guy woke up and is eating all the food! He eats faster than you! If you don't come out, you won't get any dinner!"
Spike ran out quickly. He was wearing nothing but a pair of black pants. Sweat clang to his face as he draped a towel over his shoulders. "Food? Hey! Why is the new guy taking all the food?" He jumped over the guardrail and made a mad dash to the table. He grabbed a plate and put a large portion on it and started to shovel the food into his mouth.
"Wow…you eat fast. Are you a Saya-Jin?" Gohan asked.
Spike stopped eating. "A what?"
"Saya-Jin"
"Oh, no. Saya-Jins don't exist anymore. I heard that they were destroyed a long time ago. They're supposed to be really powerful. It would be cool to challenge one in a fight someday." He went back to devouring the food.
"But I'm half Saya-Jin. My dad's one of two survivors of the race."
Spike dropped his plate and stared at Gohan. Gohan stared back uneasily.
"Whoa…"
"What?"
"You're half Saya-Jin…"
"And?" Gohan raised an eyebrow. Spike just stared at him in awe.
"Earth to Spike" Faye waved his hand in front of Spike's face. "Great…he's in another world. Oh well. More food for me." She slowly took her hand and slid the plate towards her. Gohan started to laugh as she did this. Spike came out of his daze after a while. By this time, all the food was gone.
"Where's my dinner?" He looked at Faye, who was wiping her mouth with a napkin. "FAYE!"
"What? A girl's gotta eat!"
Spike sighed in defeat. Why did she love to torture him? He stood up.
"I'm going to workout some more. Care to join me?"
Gohan looked surprised. "Me?"
"Yeah kid. You."
Gohan stood up. "Sure!"
Spike smirked. This was going to be fun. He walked out, with Gohan following closely behind. After they left, Faye turned to Jet.
"Care to bet how long it takes for Spike to beat Gohan?"
Jet crossed his arms. "You don't even have money!"
Faye frowned. "Can't I have some fun?"
"Fine. I give Spike ten minutes."
"I say five."
"Deal."
"Oh…I don't know…" Faye and Jet both turned their heads towards Ed. "Ed sees big power from Gohan."
Faye threw a pillow at her. "Shut up Ed!"
Ed blocked the pillow and continued playing virtual chess.
"Is the bet still on Jet?"
"Yeah, it's still on."
How wrong they were about the bet, they didn't know, but Spike was going to get himself killed if he didn't watch himself. Yes, he did not know the strength of a Saiya-Jin quite yet, and will soon regret ever wanting to know…

Dun Dun dunnnnnnnnnnn…yup! It's a Cowboy Bebop crossover! Half of you probably all ready guessed it though. It wasn't that hard to figure out. Why did you think I put the song in the beginning? It somewhat goes with the fic, but I left it as a huge hint that I was bringing Spike and the gang into this. Now we're going to have fun writing this. I've never done a cross over before. Make sure you come back for chapter 4!
