Chapter thirteen: Ed surprise
Spike awoke to hear a blowtorch burning and some heavy equipment shaking the ship. Spike stood up drowsily and began to walk down the hall to see what in the hell jet was up to.
"Jet can you turn that crap off I'm trying to sleep" Spike yawned frustratingly
"I'm just fixin' up the Red Tail so we can sell it today, I think it might actually bring in some money if I can just tune up the engine and get the bullet holes out the side." Jet sweated as he fiddled with the engine
"Well can you at least do it a little quieter, I'm tryin' to sleep here. You know you we don't have to sell it" Spike muttered
"You were the one who wanted to sell it! this is for you Spike." Jet said irritated
"Spike its past lunch, don't want to get up and look for a bounty or something?" Jet asked
"Huh? It's that late? Wow, alright I'll look for a bounty." Spike yawned surprisingly
Spike walked from the noisy bunker to go on the computer in search of a bounty. Spike sat hunched over in the chair trying to find a suitable bounty. Then something popped up on the screen that he would have never guessed. I giant smiley face with red chibi cheeks and small black eyes
"HI SPIKE-SPIKE IT'S ED SURPRISE!!!!" Ed yelled from the computer, her images popped up on the screen upside down typing with her toes
"Ed? How did you… wait, never mind well how are you?" Spike asked
"Ed is fantaboulous! And so is doggy Ein! How are you Spike-Spike" Ed smiled largely, flipped right side up and held her feet close into her body and started to hum
"I'm, great, do you think you could help us find a good bounty, Ed?" Spike asked
"Um, ok but Ed found something really cool Ed thinks and thinks Spike should see it!" Ed hopped up and down excitedly in her chair
"Ok, sure what is it now?" Spike said exasperated
"Ed found Faye-Faye! Yes Ed did, Why isn't she on Bebop-Bebop with Jet and Spike Spike?" Ed spun around in her twirly chair and cocked her head
"Well Ed it was her time to go just like yours was to go too." Spike answered flatly
"Hum, well, if she wanted, to go how come she didn't take the Red Tail?" Ed pondered and Ein jumped into view and licked the screen and barked
"How should I know? I don't know how that stupid bitch thinks!" Spike yelled
Ed froze in her tracks and stared at Spike. Ein whimpered and ran behind Ed
"Do you miss her Spike-Spike?" Ed asked sweetly while putting her knees behind her head
"It's much better off now that she's gone, we have more food and money." Spike said rubbing he is head therapeutically as if trying to get rid of a headache
"When Ed went there would be more money too, are you glad that Ed is gone?" Ed pulled up very close to the screen and stared again at Spike slightly sadly
"No I'm not glad your gone, Besides Ed you wasted less money than she did." Spike said both carefully and carelessly
"Ed don't understand why do not want Faye-Faye on bebop? You two were friends." Ed smiled apparently confused
"It's not that I don't want her here, Ed sometimes things get out of hand and the best thing to do is just give up on that thing or person and just move on with your life." Spike confessed
"Ed confused, If Spike want Faye on Bebop-Bebop why don't you go find her and bring her back?" Ed smiled and sat on Ein. Ein barked and barked but after about five seconds Ein realized that Ed wasn't going to move anytime soon.
Spike was now frustrated "Listen Ed, Faye didn't want to be on Bebop anymore, I'm respecting her decision just like I respected yours, and I let her go. Now can you please help me find a bounty so I can eat today." Spike sat back in his chair and sighed
"Okayes here is a good bounty for Spike-Spike." Ed smiled from ear to ear and typed with her toes and an image came up on Spikes screen
Spike looked at the image it was a mug shot of Faye and a hefty bounty was on her head too 10,000,000 woolongs
"Err, Ed since when did Faye get a bounty on her head?" Spike scratched his head trying to think of what she could have done
"Faye Faye murdered some people in a big warehouse a few days ago, silly Faye now why would she go and kill someone? That makes no since to Ed, does it to Spike?" Ed lifted her goggles and looked at Spike through on eye.
Spike's eyes widened a small bit "Shit, she got pinned for killing Julia and Vicious and all the guards back there. Someone must have seen her flee the scene, and thought that she was making a quick getaway, of all the damn luck." Spike talked to himself and banged his fist on the armrest
"Did Faye-Faye not kill the warehouse people?" Ed opened her mouth widely and stuck in a potato chip
Spike didn't answer, "Do you know where Faye is now?" Spike asked quietly
"Ed thought you didn't want Faye-Faye back." Ed jumped in the air and did a handstand
"I don't, I'm going to turn her in for some money, she's obviously worth a lot." Spike grinned and crossed his legs
"Spike-Spike can't, Faye-Faye is already been captured by another, and is going to turn her in even as Ed speaks." Ed's face crumpled up and she did a back flip and dragged Ein back to sit with her.
"Stupid shrew, she makes my life hell even when she isn't in it anymore, where is this ship?" Spike leaned forward
"Spike is lucky yes he is the ship is getting refueled near you right now, its in a fueling station in the city of SOOOOOOOOODERRRRTAAAAAAA." Ed laughed when she said that word and continued, "It is blue and big and it has a lightning bolt on the side." Ed smiled
"Ed has done her job now Ed leave bye bye Spike-Spike!"
All of Ed's images disappeared from the screen
"Have you found a bounty yet Spike? It's been almost an hour!" Jet complained and stood behind Spike who was in thought
"Yeah, I found one, 10,000,000 woolongs too, that could really fix this place up." Spike spoke looking at the screen
"Well who is it, where is he?" Jet asked impatiently
"It's not a he it's a she and she, on a spaceship already she about to be turned in, but we can get her first." Spike nodded and stood up to go get his gun
"Spike, who is it?" Jet asked even more impatiently than last time
"Faye. She got pinned for the ware house killings." Spike said simply as he made his way to the Swordfish II.
"Sorry Spike but your doing this solo I've rescued Faye too many times to do it again." Jet muttered and slumped down on the couch to watch the television
"We're not rescuing her we are turning her in." Spike began climbing up the Swordfish II
"Whatever Spike, she'll be acquitted of all charges once they match the slugs from the bodies to your gun." Jet snorted
"Well it's worth a shot, and when she I do get that money your not seeing a single woolong." Spike chuckled and jettisoned off Bebop.
"Hopeless, always has to end with a bang." Jet snickered to himself and took a nap
Fly for money...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Ed is back, well for a little while anyway. And Faye the bounty hunter, having a bounty on her head, oh the irony! :P
