One is the Loneliest Number

Chapter 4

Big Bounty

Spike's stomach growled and he groaned, "Jet, do we have anything to eat?"

"I told you Spike. You ate the last can of food we had. Now we're all out."

Spike groaned again and turned his attention to Ed in a desperate attempt to get his mind off food, "Ed is there a bounty? Any bounty? We haven't had anything to eat in days."

"Ed person sees big bounty bounty. Spike person won't like it though," the yellow eyed red haired girl said in a sing song voice. She began to type with her toes and stroke Ein. The corgi stared at Spike with a bored expression.

"And why won't I like it?" Spike asked as he wondered if there was any beer left.

"It's on smoky smoky Gunsmoke," Ed said in a haunting voice.

Spike growled to himself remembering the only time he had been to the horridly hot planet, "How much is the bounty Ed?"

"Sixty billion double dollars," Ed said as she hacked away at her computer, "It's for a man named Vash the Stampede. All Edward sees on the description is 'tall blonde man. Wears red coat.'" The girl stared at the screen baffled as to why she couldn't find any more information.

"SIXTY BILLION?!" Fea screeched from her room, "With that money I could retire for the rest of my life!" Her voice gained volume as she appeared in the living area.

Spike was reading over Ed's shoulder, "I don't care how dusty that planet is. We need the money! Besides I'm sick of eating nothing but noodles." 'You'd think Jet never heard of protein.'

"Save it," Jet muttered from a different room as he clipped at his bonsais.

"What are you talking about Jet? We really need the money!" Fea protested.

"I've heard of this man. He's way out of our league," Jet replied calmly knowing that he was loosing the fight.

"What are you saying!?" Spike yelled, "I can handle him."

"Can you?" Jet asked, "Fine but don't say I didn't warn you. And don't look to me for back up when you need help."

"I won't need help," Spike said arrogantly.

"Ed has plotted a course for Gunsmokey!" the red head announced.

'Sixty billion!' Spike thought, 'And it's in double dollars which means that the bounty is doubled as soon as it leaves the planet!' He fought with the urge to dance around and whoop. The saying 'don't count your chickens before they hatch' slipped through his mind. Spike sat back on the yellow couch and cranked up his headphones to listen to the news while he slept.

(A/N: Didn't do too bad did I? I promise the chapters will become longer! Chapter 8 is one f the longest… *coughs* You didn't hear that! PLEASE REVIEW!!!)
