Chapter five

Disclaimer: I do not own Cowboy Bebop. I do own the things you haven't seen before though.

A/N: I'M SO SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING! It's been hectic and I had a really bad case of writers block. Anyways, here's the chapter.

Fi walked along the hallways of Bob. No tears came from her eyes. Actually, she was smiling. Telling someone else about Jake really felt good. Her heart felt like a great weight had been lifted off it. Suddenly, a screen came out of her watch.

"Fi? You there?" Glacia asked. Fi lifted up her hand, and greeted Glacia with a dazzling smiled.

"Hello Glacia, how are you doing this fine evening?" she asked the woman.

"Who are you, and what have you done with Fi? You haven't been this happy ever since..." Glacia stopped talking.

"It's ok Glacia. I just told some other close friends, and I feel lighter then air." Glacia smiled.

"Good, I hate it when you're all depressed. Anyways, I have a bounty for you. His name is Alan Sticker. He's worth fifty thousand woolongs. Last seen on Venus."

"Cool, we happen to be around Venus. What's he wanted for?"

"Murder, and drug dealing."

"Alright, we're on it. Thanks Glacia."

"You take care. Bye." The screen vanished. Throughout the years Glacia and the girls had known each other, their relationship had grown to a sort of sister/sister thing. Sometimes when Bob was close to Ganymede, they stopped by and spent the night. They did all sorts of sisterly stuff together. It was like they had become like a big family. Fi walked back onto the Bebop, where everyone was still gathered in the living room, staring into space.

"Uh, girls, we got one. Fifty thousand woolongs," Fi said. The living room's occupants snapped out of their stupor, and looked at Fi.

"Cool, let's go," Suki said. All the girls got up. Spike did as well.

"Is it alright if I come along too? I want to see you work," he said.

"No, you can't come along, but Faye can," Fi said. "You see, it would give us a bad rep if we took a guy along with us. Everyone knows us as independent women, but if you came along, it would sort of shatter it. Faye can come along though." Spike looked at Faye, and she nodded. "You have to change though. Lose T-shirts and semi-lose jeans aren't a suiting outfit if your going bounty hunting with us. I think I wear your size. Come with us." Fi, Ed, Suki, and Tora spirited Faye away to Bob.

"I think someone just kidnapped my wife, and I didn't stop them," Spike said. Jet laughed, and the two men went their separate ways down the hall.

**********On Bob**********

"What do you think of this?" Fi asked, showing Faye one of her outfits.

"That's better then the last one, sure, I'll try it on," Faye said. She went into the bathroom, and when she came out, Fi smiled.

"That outfit suits you," she said. Faye smiled. The outfit had baggy black pants with various pockets in it, black sneakers, a blue headband, and a bright blue tube top that showed off Faye's stomach.

"This is a lot less revealing then what I used to wear," Faye said.

"You mean that yellow outfit that made you look like a hooker?"

"Ya, that's the one." The two girls laughed. Suki then came in.

"You guys ready to go?" she asked. Fi nodded.

"Yep, but could you go arm Faye? Give her Tara and Old Silver," she said. Suki was surprised.

"Tara?" she asked.

"Tara," Fi said firmly. Suki nodded, and led Faye out of the room. She took her to the main room, and took her over to the weapon shelves. They were now surrounded by some sort light pink force field.

"Bunnies," Suki said. A flash of light came out of the force field and scanned Suki's eyes, and then the field vanished.

"What the...?" Faye asked.

"Before the force field, a bounty got on our ship and shot Tora with her own gun," Suki said.

"Oh," Faye said. Suki reached up onto one of the shelves, and got down a gun. It had silver casing, and a black rose etched into it.

"This is Tara, she's the second best gun on this ship," Suki said. "Never misses, even if you're a bad aim. The only better gun on this ship is Darla." Suki pointed to a black gun that had a force field all its own. "That up there is one good gun. Anyways, she also told me to give you Old Silver. So, come along." Suki walked along the shelves, until she came to one that had many different knives on it. She pulled out a large one, that had a sharp edge, and a black flame etched into the blade. "This is Old Silver, in your boots there should be a sheath for it."

"Um, I'm wearing sneakers. And also, that knife is huge!" Faye said.

"You think this one is big? You should see Fi's," Suki said. "Ok, you have sneakers, well, there should be a sheath for it in your pants. Feel around the hem in the back. There should be a gun holster, and then the sheath." Faye felt around, and then found the sheath. Suki handed her Tara and Old Silver, and she put them in the appropriate places. "Alright, your all set." Fi then walked into the room. She now had a black hat on, and a black jacket that didn't close so it still showed off her stomach. The unicorn silhouette tattoo stood out against her pale skin.

"Hey, what's with the tattoo?" Faye asked.

"Its my symbol," Fi said. "Bounties call me the black unicorn. Tora's sign is a white raven; Suki's is a red one. Ed has that smiley face that I'm sure you've seen. They just haven't had it tattooed on them yet." Faye nodded her head.

"Hey Fi, show her your knife," Suki said. "She thought Old Silver was big." Fi smirked, and reached behind her body. She pulled out a knife that was about a foot long. It had a three inch wide black blade with a silver edge, and a black handle with a silver cord.

"This is my unicorn horn," Fi said. "I use it if I lose my guns, and my knives."

"Plural?" Faye asked. Fi reached behind her body, under her coat, and pulled out two silver guns. Then she sheathed them again, and leaned down to her boots, and pulled out a recently sharpened knife from each one.

"If things get really bad, I can always let Suki here go, and she'll blow the place to smithereens," Fi said.

"I'm an expert in explosives," Suki said, smiling. Faye stared at her. She would have to watch that one.

"All right, well, let's go tell the guys we'll be leaving, and then go get us a bounty," Fi said. "Ed, have you pinpointed our victim?"

"Yep, I hacked into the police cameras, he's at an old factory right now," Ed said. Fi smiled.

"Good work Ed. Let's go tell the guys we'll be leaving."

"Not yet Fi, I gotta get my gun," Ed said. She ran over to the shelves, muttered the password, stood through the retnal scan, and ran over to the shelf of guns. She picked out a gun that had a blue tinted casing. Then she left the shelves, and walked back over to Fi. "Ok, I'm ready." The five women walked over to the air lock, and walked onto the Bebop.

The girls walked down the hall, and found Jet and Spike reading in the living room. When Spike looked up, he smiled at Faye.

"You look good," Spike said. Faye smiled.

"We're going now, we came to tell you we're leaving," Fi said.

"Aren't you going to take Faye's ship?" Jet asked. Fi shook her head.

"Nope, Suki built a shield on our hover craft that blocks out the vacuum of space," Fi said. Jet nodded, surprised. All five women walked back onto Bob, and over to it's landing bay. They got on the hovercraft, turned it on, and then took off.

**********On Venus**********

The hovercraft landed in front of an abandoned factory. Everyone got off, and walked into the factory. There was a man sitting in the middle of the light from a window. He had pale skin, with long, pass-the-shoulder spiky blond hair that covered one of his eyes. Fi smirked, and the girls all walked to the edge of the shadows.

"Alan Sticker," Fi said. The man looked up at her with dazzling blue eyes.

"Your who they call the Black Unicorn I suppose?" he asked. Fi walked out of the shadows, and her tattoo was as visible as ever.

"You bet," she said. Tora, Suki, Ed, and Faye stepped out of the shadows. Alan looked them all over.

"Now, I've heard of Her, her, and her," he said, pointing to Suki, Tora, and Ed, "but I haven't heard of her." He pointed to Faye. "New recruit maybe?" Fi looked him straight in the eyes.

"Maybe," she said. The man smiled seductively at her. You could tell that he was trying to charm Fi. Slowly, he walked closer, until he was a few inches away from her.

"Well, no matter, you're the one I find interesting," Alan said. He leaned down and whispered into her ear, "very interesting." Fi then pushed him back and took out her gun.

"Your charm might work on other girls, but I'm not 'other girls'," she said. "Now, come quietly, and I wont shoot you." Alan smirked.

"You wouldn't shoot me, you don't have the guts," he said. Fi shot him in the foot. He cried out in pain, and toppled onto the ground.

"I have the guts for a lot of things Mr. Sticker," Fi said. "Tora, will you please take care of him?"

"Of course Fi," Tora said. She walked over to Alan, and took out a needle.

"One of the ravens," Alan said. "The white one I believe." He suddenly sat up, took out a gun, grabbed Tora, and pointed the gun at her head. "No body move or I'll..." Fi took out her gun, but Alan shot at it, and it went flying out of her hand. "I know all of your tricks 'Black Unicorn'. I've done a lot of research on you." Fi smirked, and Suki, Faye, and Ed pulled their guns out. They then all found guns pressed to their heads. Fi kept on smirking though. Suki shot her holder in the foot, making him instantly let go, and pulled some small pellets out of her belt, along with a remote.

"Boom," she said, threw the pellets at Alan, and pressed the button. Suddenly the pellets exploded, startling Alan, and Tora ran out of his arms. The other men were about to shoot Faye and Ed, when they found bullets in their foots, and bruises on their stomachs. The girls gathered together again, and Fi smirked at Alan. He pulled out his gun with his left hand and was about to shoot when Fi took out her unicorn horn, and threw it at Alan. It dug deep into his left upper arm, and he cried out in pain. The gun dropped to the ground. Fi walked up to the gun, and grabbed it. Then she threw it to Faye.

"A souvenir of your trip with us," she told the woman. Faye nodded, and examined the gun. It was a large pistol, all chrome. Etched into the sides was a black dragon. Faye smiled, and stuck it into an extra holster in the back of her pants.

"Thanks," she said to Fi.

"No prob," Fi said back. Faye nodded, and started to help Ed handcuff the men.

An hour later, the five women walked out of a nearby police station fifty thousand woolongs richer. They had divided it up between all five of them, giving them each an even ten thousand woolongs. Then they got on the hovercraft, and sped off into the sky.

**********On the Bebop**********

"It's been a while," Spike said, starting to get worried, "think they're ok?"

"We're fine Spike," Faye said from the doorway. Spike turned and sighed in relief when he found all of the girls, unharmed.

"Finally, I take it you got him?" Spike asked. Fi nodded. Suki was smiling big time. "What are you so happy about?"

"My pellets worked! Yay!" she cheered. Fi glared at her.

"I thought you said you had used them before! What would've happened if they didn't work!" she yelled at Suki. Suki flinched, and then Fi sighed. "Oh well. Try to TEST them before you use them from now on?"

"Alright," Suki said. Fi, Ed, Tora, and Suki then looked at the Bebop crew.

"Guys, we have to leave now, I'd like to go over to Ganymede to see how Glacia's doing," Fi said. The Bebop crew nodded. Ed went up to Faye, Spike and Jet and hugged all of them in turn.

"It was nice seeing you guys again," she told them.

"Nice seeing you too brat," Spike said. Ed smiled, and the girls started to go back to their ship, when Faye remembered the things she was carrying.

"Wait!" she called out. The girls turned around. "You forgot Tara, Old Silver, and you're clothes." Fi walked up to Faye.

"Ok, I want the gun and the knife, you can keep the clothes though," Fi said. "They look good on you." Faye smiled, handed the weapons over, and gave Fi a quick hug. Then the young woman walked back to her group, and they disappeared from the doorway. A few minutes after that, the Bebop shook, and then calmed down.

"Bye girls," Faye said. "See you later." With that, the three people walked off to do other things on the Bebop.
