Cowboy Bebop

Tenshi

Disclaimer: I do not own any character in Cowboy Bebop nor do I own the scene the story line and the…other good stuff. But I do own Tenshi. SO back off! Lol! J/p. Well, I am not the most 100 fan of Cowboy Bebop so there will be mistakes in here every so often. I would really like it if you tell me what mistakes I made so maybe when I redo this story I'll fix it. Thank you!

A young woman walked down the empty street, her clothes ripped and torn. The woman than walked into the bar and there a few men surrounded her, but she seemed not to be afraid of these large men as they guided her to the back office. On the bar counter, Spike sat on the stool and from the corner of his eyes he notices the lady walk in. But he didn't let that detail bother him as he drank his liquor.

A few minutes later Jet sat next to him and Spike asked, "So, what's the show today?"

Jet was just about to answer when the cheap intercom of the bar then said, "Hello everyone! Thank you for choosing the best bar in town! But remember today is also a show night and this young lady," The man that was on the stage pointed to the lady that walked in not to long ago but she looked different. She had on a kelly green dress that was slim and showed her beautiful figure and her light brown hair was left down and cleaned out very quickly, "Will entertain you with a beautiful song!"

The first thing Spike said was, "Well, she looks nice. Let's see how she sounds like."

The woman took the microphone and her voice was quiet as she said, "I hope you don't mind, but I am going to be singing an old country song. Nobody Drinks Alone by Keith Urban."

As the music started and her voice rang out, Spike and Jet sat there dumbfounded at how at first her voice was so quiet and innocent can change into the voice of an angel. They were so shocked by her voice that they forgot the reason why they were there in the first place. Slowly their target walked out of the bar and Jet noticed the empty space.

Jet quickly turned to Spike and said, "Hey Spike! Spike!"

Spike's attention was on the mysterious woman until finally Jet made him smack out of it and said, "Huh? What's wrong Jet?"

Jet pointed to the empty chair and said, "That's what's wrong!"

Spike cursed himself and said, "Damn, well… looks like we are going to starve again tonight."

Jet quickly stood up and said, "Not this time. I am going after him… you enjoy the show."

Spike nodded and turned his attention back to the girl and smiled as he listened to her gentle voice. But Spike was caught off guard when the girl stared at him and the expression on her face was a mixture of sadness and fear. Spike couldn't help but stare back. It felt like as if the girl was trying to tell him through her hazel eyes.

Then the girl closed her eyes and looked away as she finished her song. She placed the microphone back on the stand and bowed in respect. The men hollered and screamed. They started to take out the money out of their wallets to give her tips, the rush of men to the girl made Spike loose contact with her.

Spike then stood up on the bar counter and noticed the girl was walking back behind the stage with the man holding her waist and pushing her to the door. Spike's eyes glared as he thought something was fishy about this. So he rushed out of the door and to the back where he heard voices and stopped.

He heard a man's voice say, "Well done lady."

Spike then heard the innocent voice of the girl that asked, "Well… you have your money. Will you help me now?"

The man laughed as he said, "Of course dear. Boys why don't you help her?"

Spike looked around the corner to see that two rather large boys walked up to the woman and one of them snatched her arms very tightly. She was caught off guard and couldn't even scream as the one that snatched her forcefully kissed her lips. The other man ripped off her cheap dress to reveal only her white bra and white underwear. The lady struggled as much as she could but that wouldn't help after she was beaten on the head unconscious.

The boys hungrily began to invade her privacy until Spike decided to step in and kick one of the man's head behind his back and making him land face first into the wall. His anger grew as he began to punch the man over and over again in the face. The other man dropped the almost naked girl and jumped into the air to basically squish Spike. Spike reacted to it by kicking him in the guts and making him fly over his head and land in the garbage. Just when the man in the garbage was about to get out, Spike jumped on the trashcan lid with all his might and shut the top on his head.

Spike then jumped off of the trashcan and looked at the man that had sent out his boys and recognized him as one of the man on bounty for drug dealing and Spike grinned and the man said in a shaky voice, "Who…what are you?"

Spike picked up his handgun and said, "You shouldn't be worrying about that. Now I am giving you choices to come with me willingly or you'll end up like trash like your little dogs."

An aircraft flew right above Spike's head and Jet's voice yelled out, "Hey! What you doing?"

Spike yelled out, "Hey… pick up the pieces of trash up here… I'll meet you back on the ship."

Jet grumbled and said under his breath, "You make the mess and I clean it up. Thanks…"

Spike quickly ran over to the woman. He touched her pulse and found a normal beating and looked around to see if she was hurt in anyway, her forehead was bleeding a bit from the strong blow but that was the most damage done here. He also checked to see if she was breathing and she was. Spike then wrapped his jacket around the woman and picks her up in his arm gently and headed off to Bebop.

The woman slowly opened her eyes and looked around and then she saw a man with what looked like a dark green hair and he looked over to her and said, "Hey, you are awake."

The woman looked up to the man and asked, "Who are you?"

Spike smiled and said, "My name is Spike. What is yours?"

The woman looked away and said, "I…I don't know."

Spike then asked, "Do you remember anything?"

The woman answered, "In my past… no. I do remember what happened last night though. Thank you for saving me."

The woman was about to get up and leave but Spike asked, "Do you even have a home?"

The almost naked woman turned around unashamed and said, "For all I know… the streets is my home."

Spike couldn't stand thinking that such a beautiful creature could go out in the streets so he said something he didn't even know he would say, "Why don't you stay on Bebop with me?"

The woman looked at Spike as Spike quickly recovered himself and said, "I am not trying to get in bed with you! I just don't want you to go… on the streets…get…jumped."

The woman then asked, "Are you sure?"

Spike smiled and said, "Why not? Just got to help us get some criminals and we are good to go.

The woman smiled and said, "All right… thank you. Umm… can I borrow some clothes?"

Spike blinked and laughed as he said, "Sure hold on… You have to borrow my clothes because I don't think you would like to wear Jet's… no one wants to touch Jet's clothes."

Spike came back with a collared shirt and some boxer shorts. When she put it on Spike couldn't help but laugh as he saw how big they were. They had to roll up the sleeves quite a bit and they had to tie a piece of string around the shorts so it wouldn't fall off.

Spike then said, "Well… we really have to give you a name… what do you want to be called?"

She looked up to Spike and said, "Umm… I don't know."

Spike stood up for q second and thought about it, he looked at her and said, "Well… what about Tenshi?"

She looked up at Spike and said, "Tenshi? Doesn't that mean angel?"

Spike shrugged and said, "Yeah… I always thought Tenshi was a pretty name. Well I am going to head off to some stores… you want to come and get some clothes?"

Tenshi looked up and said, "But I don't have any money…"

Just then Jet got on Bebop with a smile on his face and said, "Well, now we have ¥101,000!"

Spike smiled and said, "Well… looks like Jet is happy. Hey Jet! You wanna calm down a bit so I can introduce you to a new member of Bebop?"

Jet walked over to Tenshi and Spike introduced them, "Tenshi this is Jet. Jet this is Tenshi."

Tenshi took her hand out to shake his, Jet took out his robotic arm at first wondering if she would be curious about it but all she did was smile and said, "It is nice to meet you, sir."

Jet smiled and said, "Don't call me, sir. Just call me Jet."

Tenshi nodded in agreement and Jet looked down at her clothes and said, "Hey…Spike… aren't those yours?"

Spike sighed and said, "Yeah… I'll explain to you later. Now we have to go shopping with Tenshi for some clothes."

Soon after they were off to go shopping for clothes for Tenshi. As they walked down the streets, people stared at Tenshi but she didn't seem to mind. Neither did Spike. Jet was off to go fix the Bebop ship. Spike stopped by a good clothing store and shopped in the women's section.

Spike sighed and said, "Well… I'll sit here and let you choice what you need…"

Tenshi then asked, "Hey Spike… you think we can stop by a guys clothing store?"

Spike blinked and asked, "Why?"

Tenshi smiled and said, "This shirt is really comfortable. I want to get a red one."

Spike smiled and said, "Sure. But get some pants and shorts and what ever you need."

Spike sat down near the dressing room as he waited for Tenshi to try on some pants and other things. Tenshi came back out very quickly with one bag. Spike expected her to bring out several bags but it seemed that she really don't care much about clothes.

Spike smiled and said, "You ready?"

Tenshi nodded and they headed off to the men's clothing and she was wearing new jean pants that she barely bought. Spike looked down at Tenshi and couldn't help but notice that she truly looked beautiful when she smiled. Also the fact that he was wearing his shirt kind of turned him on a bit… but he wasn't going to try and hit on her. He all ready had someone special in mind.

He picked out a red shirt that was a jean style and said, "Hey Tenshi. What about this one? It's a small so we won't have to roll up so much."

Tenshi nodded and said, "Yeah! That is perfect!"

They bought several more of them and went out of the store. They walked out of the store with one more bag and Tenshi was carrying both. She didn't seem to mind and neither did Spike. Tenshi skipped ahead with glee and Spike watched her in the distance. He smiled and couldn't help but stare at her as she skipped in joy. All of a sudden to men came up to her and were talking to her. One was trying to hold her arm and bring him closer to her. Tenshi shook her head and tried to fight them off but they pushed her closer. Spike walked over to the two men and glared down at them and stared at the hand that was holding onto Tenshi. Tenshi didn't know that Spike was behind her and she finally got her arm freed from the stranger and bumped into Spike's chest.

One of the men said, "Oh sorry man. Didn't know she was yours."

Spike didn't even pay attention to what the man said, but instead said, "Come on Tenshi. Let's get out of here."

Tenshi nodded and walked away from the two men and looked up at Spike. Then she began to realize what the man said, "Oh sorry man. Didn't know she was yours." She couldn't help but blush at that but slowly she began to get over it as soon as they arrived back to Bebop.

Spike lied on the couch and Tenshi folded her new clothes as he asked, "What am I suppose to do to you?"

Tenshi looked up to Spike and asked, "What do you mean?"

Spike closed his eyes and said, "If I wasn't there those two mean would have taken advantage of you."

Tenshi sighed and said, "Yeah… and you won't always be there."

Spike then said, "Well… how about we teach you how to shoot. Then you will be able to defend yourself a little more."

Tenshi didn't like the sounds of "shoot" but he was right. How was she going to defend herself. So she agreed to the shooting and they decided to start tomorrow. She put all her clothes in a small briefcase that they bought for her to put all her clothes in. And she would be sleeping on the couch. Tenshi didn't mind at all and she seemed very reluctant.

That night Tenshi slept on the couch while she was watching the TV shows. Spike walked past the couch and looked at Tenshi's innocent face. He smiled and walked away for a second to get a blanket. He gently covered her with it and smiled. He took the remote from her hands gently and turned off the TV and walked out of the room smiling.
