Winter: Hi there! And welcome to Chapter five of "Jet's Lost Niece!"
Wisdom: Winter would like to apologize for the shortness of the chapters. You see this is an old fanfic but she took it down when "Lioness," was put up. So really this fanfic right now is just being edited.
Winter: Yup! So please don't yell at me for the shortness...
Wisdom: Winter doesn't own Cowboy Bebop or its characters. She does own Raven, the owl, Toki and Destiny.
Winter: ON WITH THE FANFIC!!
Spike heard something fly over his head and then a click of a gun from behind him.
"Who are you and why to you come to my loved one's grave?"
Spike turned around to see a hooded figure pointing a gun at him. He could tell that it was a female from the body structure.
A gust of wind swept by them blowing the hood off of the woman's head. Black hair blew in the wind behind her as Spike looked into her eyes. They showed hate and loneliness. Despite that fact she was one of the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
"I will ask this one more time, who are you?" she said.
"I was here to take your bounty..." said Spike.
But before he could finish what he was saying the woman heard the word bounty and then ran.
I can't get caught, now just yet! she thought to herself as she ran.
"Hey wait you didn't let my finish! Argh! Damn it!" said Spike then ran after her.
Raven didn't pay any attention to him. Like a horse she would run first and ask questions later. She was the pray and him her hunter. The owl took up in the air as she ran.
As she ran she heard him catching up to her. As the woman ran she turned her head and shot two bullets at Spike. But luckily he dove behind a trashcan as they were being shot. He looked over and saw he running so he followed the pray.
Damn it all he won't give up! Did they send him like they did the others? These thoughts ran through her head.
"Hey wait all I want to do is talk!" said Spike running after her. "Ack! Damn it!"
She turned the corner as she placed her gun back in her pocket then jumped onto a fire escape. Once she had a good grip she started to climb to the top.
As Spike ran around the corner he skidded to a halt and looked around scratching his head. "Where'd she go?"
As she was climbing she slipped as she tried to step on the ladder but managed to get a hold of a bar. She watched her gun fall to the darkness under her.
The gun fell to the ground but did not hit the ground. Instead it hit Spike right on the top of the head with a nice ole thud.
"How my head!" he yelled. "Argh damn it! Huh? Hold on I'll help you!"
It was too late, before she realized that the bar was old and rusty it broke and she started to fall towards the ground. Spike watched as Raven landed on her feet kneeling in front of him.
Spike eyes widened. But he was taken out of his little surprise when a fist hit his gut. Raven jumped back and kneeled down going to kick him in the face, but when she tired Spike caught her foot.
"Hm I wasn't expecting a match," said Spike.
The black-headed girl kicked her foot free and went to go bunch him. Spike easily blocked all the blows she was sending him. But he last expected it she tackled him.
She had fallen on top of him because he had grabbed onto her arm bring her down with him.
"Heh," said Spike with a little smirk.
Raven glared at him then bunched him in the lip causing it to bleed. She tried to get up and run away but. Spike took this to his advantage since he stood much taller then her and pushed her down on the ground and stood up.
Raven pushed off of her hands and jumped up. Spike was expecting this so when she got up he tackled her against the wall. He held her wrist in his hands and stood to the side to avoid getting kicked in the vital areas.
"Just listen to me..." began Spike.
"No I will not!" she said struggling to get free. "Let go of me!"
"I was after your bounty but not anymore," growled Spike.
"You're lying!" she yelled.
"No I'm not...I can help you..." said Spike making his grip tighter.
"Yeah and that's what they said before they tried to kill me," retorted Raven. "Sorry to disappoint you but I'm not stupid you know."
She finally broke free and started to run again. Spike saw this coming and he tackled her to the ground as she tried to get her gun. He kneeled at her side and was leaning over her keeping one hand over her mouth and the other hand held her wrists.
"Just listen to me!" said Spike.
Raven growled and her eyes flared anger at him. She bit his hand.
"Ow! Why you lil..." began Spike but them stopped himself not moving. "I am a friend I can help you just let me talk!"
Raven looked up into his eyes. She saw that they were two different colors. One showed death and disappear and the other showed wanting of something that he was lacking. But what was that something?
"My friend...just meet him...I promise you I wont let no one take you bounty unless you piss me off," said Spike.
She continued to stare into his eyes. No matter how much she tired she could not bring herself away. There was something there that she could not figure out. What was the thing that was missing? And why did one eye show his death over and over again like a bad movie.
Spike stared back at her for a moment before he took her hand away from her mouth expecting a scream or a long stream of curses. But she didn't do anything, she didn't blink, she didn't move, now sound escaped her lips. He couldn't even the light sound of her calm breathing.
Going against his will he slowly let go of her wrists readying to pin her back down at any moment giving but she did not move. Her arms stayed in a position above her head with her face now turned away from him.
Raven, all she could do was lie there trying to remember but she couldn't. All she remembered that during the attack everything went dark and when she woke up she some how knew her past, but what her mother told her with her last breath.
Spike looked down at her with a confused face. It was deathly quiet the only sound was of the dead night and their soft breathing.
When she had finally come to she couldn't remember what her mom said. She just laid there afraid to move, afraid to live.
Spike looked into her eyes, to see if he could see what was wrong. He saw confusion, pain, and sorrow and through them he saw her one-track mind. Revenge.
"Are you hurt?" he asked her.
"No," she said. He voice was far and distant and yet beautiful to the ears at the same time.
Spike noticed that she was shivering as he helped her up. "C'mon lets get you out of this rain." He held a hand out for her.
Raven slowly took his hand. He gently pulled her up and led her out of the alley.
"My ship isn't to far away c'mon," he said with a reassuring voice.
Raven nodded as she followed him and pulled her wood up as the owl landed on her should. It looked at her with big yellow-green eyes and tilted his head. She reached up and patted his breasts.
Don't worry. I don't think they mean us harm, Saiki.
Come my hunter I am waiting for youCome my hunter I am right before your eye.

The bird of death
Come my hunter I am your pray
