I am so glad everyone is enjoying this so much! It started out as a joke, but maybe I'll even finish it!

Disclaimer: Once more, if it's cool it ain't mine. This includes Spike at the Chippendale club.

"No way. No fucking way. I am NOT wearing that outfit. I am wearing no part of that. Not now, not ever!" An outraged Spike was looking at the tiny pair of briefs Faye held out to him with horror and disgust.

He had finally capitulated and agreed to pose as a male stripper to catch the bounty. Jet had put Faye in charge of costumes.

Faye was wearing one of her smuttiest get ups yet. She was poured into a lime green dress. It was almost frontless and backless as well. The skirt came up so high that there was no way she could sit in it and maintain any decency. Large fake emeralds dangled from her ears and neck. Her hair was stuffed under a bleached blond permed wig. Lime green mid thigh boots and a chain link belt finished the ensemble.

"C'mon Spike. It won't be that bad. Look, there's still a spot for the women to stick their ones in." A wicked smile graced her face. The tiny pair of Speedo's she held out would barely cover everything essential, let alone allow for dollar bills to be stuffed in.

"Faye, I can't go in public wearing that. I won't. Just because you are used to being indecently dressed..." He crossed his arms over his chest. With his lower lip sticking out he personified a petulant child.

"Spike, not that I have any urge to see you wearing that, but if we are going to catch Rylee, you need to be in character. Remember, we can't afford to mess this one up." Jet was trying to reason with Spike.

Spike's head drooped in defeat but his eyes glared vengeance. "I'll get you back for this Faye. Bet your ass on it, I'll get even with you."

With a smirk she tossed the Speedos to him.

"Saddle up cowboy."

Things on the good ship Bebop were quiet that night. Ed was playing with her Tomato. Ein was sleeping next to her. Being Ed's sidekick was an exhausting job.

Jet had retired to his bonsai room. The little trees kept him busy for hours, scrutinizing exactly where to cut exactly the right branch. If he wasn't reminded, he even forgot to cook for them at times. That was almost a national disaster.

Faye relaxed under the hot stream of water emitted by the shower head. The Lunkhead was missing and she had the bathroom to her self. As an added bonus, there was even hot water - lots of hot water.

The room filled with fragrant steam. She could barely see three inches in front of her face. She didn't notice when the door crept open a few inches and a slender figure slipped in. He paused for a moment to do something to the door then silently glided to the toilet. Reaching for the handle he grinned evilly. He would get her back now.

WOOSH! "EEEEKKK! OH MY GOD HOT!" WOOSH "TOO COLD, TOO COLD!" Spike grinned again and hit the handle once more. Faye's shrieks echoed through the ship. Her water kept alternating between scalding hot and ice cold. She was huddled in the back of the shower avoiding the water.

"Spike, I will KILL you! You better run, cuz I'm coming out!" With that, she leapt through the water, freezing cold at this time. Launching herself on to the figure, she began to pummel him around the head and shoulders.

He threw his forearms up as a shield. "Get off! You crazy psycho! Get off me!"

Faye was incensed. "You rotten, dirty bastard! How DARE you ruin my shower! I'm gonna-" Suddenly she realized what she was doing. Bare-ass naked and dripping wet she was straddling Spike and beating him about the head. She pulled back and made to jump off him when hands around her waist flipped her around. Now HE was straddling HER.

His smile was smug. "What are you going to do to me Faye? I really would like to know."

"Get off me asshole."

"Oh, does someone not like a taste of her own medicine?"

She glared daggers at Spike. He prudently decided enough was enough and jumped off, carefully stepping through the door to the hallway. "One point for me" She heard him mutter under his breath as he sauntered away.

Faye was swearing vehemently under her breath as she struggled into her robe. Preparing to stalk off in a huff she stomped through the door. A bucket of grape jelly fell onto her head.

"SPIKE!"

He came flying out of his hiding spot, camera flashing. "Two points for me! Wohoo!"

Faye gave chase, shedding bits of jelly down the hall.

The front entrance to the club was crowded. Spike took one look at the crowd and tried to bolt.

"I really have to go through with this Faye? Can't we just tell Jet we missed the bounty? I'll even pay you to lie on this one. Lying comes natural to you. C'mon. Please?" Desperately he begged Faye to let him out of this mess.

"Hell no. No money could buy the enjoyment your mortification will bring me. Especially after the jelly stunt you pulled." It was so gratifying to see the Lunkhead sweat. She was still mad at him for that one.

"I heard that Spike. Next time make sure your com link is off when you try to bribe Faye." Jets voice was gruff and angry. He was the one always bitching about no meat on the Bebop. Now there was a chance to get a decent bounty and he tried to reneg? Though the jelly stunt was a good prank.

"C'mon cowboy. We'll sneak in the back." looping her arm through his, she drug him around the side of the building.

Heehee, they are sneaking in the back door. Will Spike actually do it? Um...Yeah! Cuz I'm the author and I said so! How will Faye react to seeing other women groping her cowboy? hehe! Review and find out!
