Okay people, this is the beginning of the gruesome stuff I mean visuals so don't flame!!...
I hate boys!
Just one more day and the communicator would get fixed but Serena had some upward suspicion that that guy who she left her communicator with was doing more stuff to her communicator than she thought. So she left a little bug communicator to hear what was going on at the shop so she would listen now and then.
During in space, she was listening in on the couch as Rini would be writing in her journal she bought. Their computer online communications was on when Ed's image appeared. "Teenie-Rini! Hello!"
Serena continued to listen as Rini looked up from her journal. "Oh hi Ed. What's happening?"
"Howdy Howdy! Ed saw when Jet-person brought Spike-person in from tonight. Does Serena really have healing powers that work as magically as it did on him?"
"She sure does. I do to if I really tried," she started twirling her hair on her finger annoyed. Her older cousin had to be so much greater than her all the time. Rini hated that. "How is Spike anyway?"
"He came in here lookin' like he had nothin' happen to him. It seems that old Vicious person was after him againy. "
"Vicious?"
"But Ed could tell that he was really grateful for what Meaty ball head did!"
Some one else's voice came on there. It was Spike's. "Yo."
"Hi Spike," she looked over at Serena where she was supposed to be at but gasped because she was gone. "Now where'd she go?"
"What's the problem?"
"Serena's gone missing again. She should tell me these things so I wouldn't worry."
______________________________________________________________________________
Back on the China town looking planet, Serena was dressed in her usually outfit and had her dark sunglasses on as she walked into "Mecana's Pawn Shop" not knowing there was a couple of dark cloaked thugs watching her every move.
"Hi Mr. Mecana!" greeted a cheerful Serena as she came in.
"Oh! Serena, it's about time! I have your communicator up and runnin'!" the old man reached underneath the table and took out her shiny communicator. He rubbed it with his robe and handed it to her.
"Oh excellent! Thank you Mr. Mecana! Oh wow! You even re-painted it?"
"It was lookin' kinda rusty so I decided to touch it up a bit," he told her in a chuckle.
"How much do I owe ya?"
"It's not trouble at all! " the old jolly man chuckled again. He looked over her shoulder and the next horrifying thing Serena saw was the old man getting shot straight in the head as Serena jumped over the counter. She could see through the refection of the old machines on the counter that there was about 4 or 5 of them armed with guns coming in.
"Oh come on Serenity, we just want to play!" joked one of them.
She was shocked that someone knew her true TRUE alias in the future.
"We've come to take ya to see Vicious. He's very anxious to see you," said another.
There he is again. That name. Vicious. What does he want with her?
2 guns appeared in Serena's hands and just as she was about to shoot, she heard other gun shots, guys groaning and bodies falling down. She peeked behind the counter and saw Rini and Spike walking over the dead bodies. "Oh, it's you guys. "
The guy leaned over the counter. "Chillin' out there with your boyfriend?"
"Oh shut up!"
"Do you have the communicator or not?"
"Right in my pocket! Just hold on one second, I want to do something for this old man, he was really nice and I wanted to pay him back."
Spike sighed as he used his gun to wipe his brow, "Fine. Don't take all day."
Serena put her guns down and held her hands above Mecana's head and all of a sudden, Rini started to get all grossed out as the bullet was slowly rising from his head. Spike caught it as the injury in the old man's head closed up and he started blinking again. But before he could see who had saved him, the three were already gone.
_____________________________________________________________
"What was going on back there?" asked Rini as they all went back to their ship with the accompany of Spike who came behind them straight to their refrigerator.
"I have no clue," She sat on the couch and grunted at the fact the a guy was hoarding their food when he didn't have his own food in his own ship. He just waved a sandwich at her which she just sighed. "They mentioned that some guy named Vicious was after me because of who I am..."
Spike dropped his food as the girls looked. "Are you okay?"
He waved as a signal as he was and re-picked up the food.
Serena laid herself back down on the couch. "Since when do you use guns anyway?"
"How 'bout you?"
"I didn't even get a chance to use mine," she scoffed as she turned face towards the back side of the couch. "Sounded like you were a good shot."
"Ah, she was okay, still a rookie in training," Spike jested as he had his arms full of food and sat on the chair next to Rini. "You could use some practice."
"Practice my ass, I always get it right in the arcades, " Rini scowled as she was checking her e-mail. Her eyes blinked confusingly as she read a very weird suspicious e-mail from some one in her head,
To Neo-Queen or Neo-Princess,
Meet me tomorrow after night at "Biz Marquee" night club around midnight. I want you two to come alone and make sure no one will be following you. I will give you the necessary information that you all would need on the reason why the both of you are being hunted by...Vicious.

"Huh?"
"What'cha readin' there?" Spike leaned in as she pushed him slightly to the side but up appeared at the middle of the screen was Jet's image.
"Rini! Where's Spike?"
"He's right here," she closed her e-mail and moved to the side so he could see what he wanted. Spike moved over as he was chewing on a chocolate bar. "Any news on that bounty yet?"
"Yeah! He happens to be up at the Northridge Casino with about 4 of his thugs. Get there fast because Faye's already on her way there! "
"Gotcha."
"I'll meet you there!"
"Whatever," Spike looked at Rini. "Well you heard him. No Northridge Casino and step on it!"
A long awkward silence...
"What are you waiting for? Faye could already have my money!"
"What are you waiting for? You drive! We don't know where this casino is at. We're newbies when it comes to the solar system. You know that."
"You want me to drive? IS that okay with your cousin?"
They both looked over at Serena who was already sound asleep.
"She's sleeping so I guess that's a yes."

As soon as he made his way to the control room, Rini took her time and woke her cousin up. "Hey! Hey! Serena, wake up!"
"Huh-huh? Wha? Why are you waking me up?"
"Come here and take a look at this!" She walked over to the computer as Serena joined her and re-opened her e-mail.
As she read to herself, the engine roared as they heard and with a sudden urge of motion they both fell back over the couch as the ship flew faster every minute.
"STUPID BOY!" yelled Serena as she tried to get up.
_________________________________________________________________-
After 5 minutes of fast traveling, the engines were cooled off as Spike came and jumped over the lump bodies of Serena and Rini. "I'll talk to ya girls later!"
"Should we just let him handle this?" Rini asked in a sigh.
"Sure. Let himself get killed. But in that case...She stood up and looked at the lights of the shiny casino. "I think I'll go in for a look around."
"I'll go with you."
"No way! You're 18! And I'm over 21! Duh, get with the program Rini," she grabbed her jacket. "Just if the guys need a craft to transport the bounty, say no."
"Sure..." Rini spread out her hands and legs like a snow angel. "I'll hold them off with my 45 millimeter gun....leave the 'kid' out here to have some fun. PAh."
____________________________________________________________________-
As soon as Serena got in the casino, the bounty Spike and the others were after had already been caught by them and they were already taking them away when Spike caught eye on Serena taking a seat at a slot machine.
She was about to put her money in when she was abruptly annoyed by a bushy haired older man who took the seat next to her. "You missed out on all the action, babe. I had that guy in less than 5 minutes."
"Oh you think kung-fu action is supposed to impress a girl like my stature. No way, ..." Big lie. "Okay, I wish I could've saw that." Serena glared at him for a moment. "But I was too busy trying to help myself up from almost getting a concussion on the way you flew our ship!"
Spike's face turned to into like he didn't do anything wrong. "This bounty was on a time limit. If I didn't get him quickly Faye could've gotten it. You know that."
Serena swung the handle on the slot machine as the sounds of it filled the air. "Woo-hoo!"
"Lady Luck's gotten you again, huh Neo-Queen Serenity?"
Major Uh-oh!!!
