Author's note: This is going to have quite a few chapters after this one.
Also the reason this is R is because of murder. Eventually it will be more
romance than angst

"Jet?" a voice on the comm was heard.
"That you Donovon?" Jet asked.
"Yeah, it's me," Donovon answered.
"So, what do you want?" Jet asked.
"Got some bad news about your buddy," Donovon told him.
"What buddy?" Jet asked.
"Spiegel," Donavon answered the question with one word that autimaticlly meant tragedy.
"What about him?" Jet questioned.
"I'm sorry but...he's dead," Donovon told him with sympathy apparent in his voice.
"Where's his body?" Jet asked.
"The funny thing about that is that we can't find it," Donovon said.
"What do you mean you can't find it!? Dead bodies don't get up and move!" Jet yelled.
"If we find it I'll call you," Donovon told him.
With that Jet shut off the link. Faye was standing in the doorway. She had heard the whole thing. Tears silently streaked down her face as she ran to her bedroom. She barely made it to her bed before she collapsed with sobs shaking her body.
*Two Days Later*
"Faye! Faye!" Jet yelled as he pounded on her door, "You have to come out sometime!"
Slowly her door cracked open to reveal a pale figure. Her normal clothing was nowhere to be seen. She was dressed in baggy dark blue sweatpants and a black t-shirt. The dark colors highlighted her ghostly white skin. She had let doen her hair so that her bangs covered her forehead. Her lips had paled to a very light pink. The most noticable change was her eyes. Her once vibrant emerald eyes had dulled to an olive green. Around her eyes were red, proof that she had been crying.
"What?" Faye croaked out.
"The funeral is tomorrow," Jet told her.
"What good is it without a body?" she asked.
"We're still going to have one in his honor," he said.
"We should get Ed," Faye said.
"What?" Jet asked obviously confused.
"She should be there. He was her comrade too," she explained.
"She doesn't even know he left," Jet tried to reason with her.
"Then we'll tell her. Jet, she deserves to know," Faye whispered.
"Fine, I'll go redirect the course for Earth," he sighed.
Faye turned around and walked back into her room. Jet walked stiffly to the control room. His leg still hurt from getting shot, which meant he still used his cane. This while situation wasn't making it easier. Spike's death wasn't any easier on Faye, in fact some would say it was worse. Before Spike had left she had come to the conclusion that she was in love with him. She still did and would never get a chance to tell him. To make matters worse her foot accidently hit the betta player. As soon as she hit the bed a young Faye appeared on the screen. The young version of her was happy, smiling, and was with her friends. Her friends that most likely were long dead. It was a reminder that she would never be like that again. Happy, she had wanted to feel that since she had been awakened from cryogenic freezing. Almost instantly she was in tears.
