Winter: Hey there everyone and welcome to the next chapter of-
Wisdom: "Jet's Lost Niece!"
Winter: I'm supposed to say that:
Wisdom: Winter doesn't own Cowboy Bebop. She does own Raven and everything else unless other wise stated. Now on with the story!
Winter: But I'm supposed to say that…
Chapter Eight:
On the outer skirts of the town was farmland, most of the houses were being knocked down to expand the small town into a city yet some remained. As Raven walked down the dirt road she saw families gathered in their houses sitting down to eat.
Animals were locked in the barn until tomorrow's work needed to be done. At the end of the road was an old house, it was black from a past fire and it's roof showed sings of collapsing at any moment.
Raven dared not walk into the house fearing that it might result to her death. Instead she walked around to the side of the house. The garage wasn't in any better condition then the house.
She sighed and opened the side door, which only fell into the building as a response. Raven stared at the fallen door with a sweat drop. Carefully she walked in.
It wasn't the cleanest garage, one from the mess of ashes that were caused by the fire and two Raven's dad was always disorganized. Raven walked over and pulled a burnt up white sheet.
There stood an R wing (if you ever played Star Fox that is the ship he has), damaged but not too much, by the time the firemen arrived to put out the fire the garage had just caught aflame.
"I guess I was right…it needs a lot of work," sighed Raven. "It will take me awhile also. All of the spare parts are dust now."
Raven looked the ship over again. She would need more fuel, oil among other parts for the engine. One of the wings was broken off and she would have to fix that as well.
Meanwhile:
"This is hopeless Jet," sighed Spike. "Can't you think of anyplace where she might be or go?"
"She wouldn't go to anyone's house," sighed Jet lighting a cigarette.
"Didn't she live here?" questioned Spike lighting another one of his own.
"Yeah but the house was destroyed by the fire," answered Jet.
"Well let's try anyway," said Spike.
"I just hope she is okay," sighed Jet as he followed Spike.
"I'm sure she is," said Spike. "Uh why don't you lead since I have no idea where I am going."
Jet shook his head at Spike then led the way.
Spike looked over the house and whistled. "These gangs really can hold a grudge," he said.
"Yeah and that grudge killed my sister and brother in law," said Jet.
Both men sighed and went on to look for Raven. After an hour of looking on the property they stopped.
"Well she's not in the house or anyplace else," said Spike.
"Damn," cursed Jet. "I really thought she might be here!"
Meanwhile:
"Huh?" said Faye.
Faye walked out onto the shipping deck on the Bebop leaving her ship where she was doing tune-ups. Raven stood at the end of the deck with her coat hood up looking at the ship.
"Hey!" called Faye walking over. "I thought you might be back. You know we were real worried about you. The guys are still out looking for you."
Raven didn't look at Faye, she just kept staring in front of her. The cigarette that was hanging out of Raven's mouth fell out onto the deck.
"Hey! Are you even listening to me?" said Faye. "Are you alright?"
Raven didn't answer. It began to rain.
"Hey," said Faye shaking Raven. "C'mon lets get you inside."
Faye put an arm around Raven and led her inside the Bebop. The only thing left on the shipping deck was the cigarette bud that fell from Raven's mouth only to be washed away by the rain…
Meanwhile:
"Please no!" cried a man. "You don't want to kill me! I promise I won't fail you again!"
"Take him away," said a man that seemed to be in his twenties. "I have no more use of that low life."
Two men dragged him out of the well-furnished looking room. In the middle was a couch behind large glass windows.
The man who ordered the death sat in the middle of the couch holding a glass of wine. He dressed in a full tux. His long raven hair matched his dark blood lust of eyes. A thin mouth and a small nose framed his beautiful face.
"What do you wish to do now sir?" questioned a man who stood next to the couch.
"I want her here," answered the man. He seemed to be in charge. "That girl has the knowledge of my father's weapon. Since he passed away the plans died with him. Bring me Yuki."
"Yes sir," said the man as he bowed low then left the room.
A moment later a women that seemed to be at the same age as the man walked in and stopped in front of him with her hands on her hips. She had tan skin that seemed out of place with her blond hair, which was tied back. She dressed in a pair of black fake leather shorts and shirt that hid almost nothing to work to her advantage. On her feet she wore black leather boots that ended above her knee. On her shoulders rested a black trench coat.
"You wished to see me sir?" she asked.
"Ah Yuki it is nice to see you," said the man. "Come have a seat."
Yuki stared at the man before walking over gracefully and took a seat next to him. She snuggled up next to him as he put an arm around her.
"I need you to do me a favor," said the man.
Yuki looked up at him with question in her blue eyes. The man didn't look at her, he closed his eye and sipped some more whine.
"I need you to find someone for me," he went on. "Her name is Raven Wolf-Star. You may have seen her on TV. Right now she has a high bounty on her head."
"Do you wish for her to be turned in dead or alive?" asked Yuki in a cute way.
"No, no my dear Yuki," he laughed coolly. "I want you to bring her to me, I need her for something very important."
"But I thought I was the only one that would take your bed with you," she pouted.
"But you are my dear," said the man. "Do not worry your pretty little head."
After a few moments Yuki left her master and walked out onto the roof of the building. Her hair and coat blew in the strong wind. A gun now rested at her hip. She jumped off of the roof onto the one of the next building. As she landed she thought:
Don't worry master Shinji. If you want this girl; you will get her, they don't call me Yukiaru the Man Hunter for nothing.
End Chapter:
Winter: I'm sorry for the shortness of the chapter but you see. It originally started out before I deleted the fanfic that the cops caught Raven. And from there the fanfic wouldn't get anywhere so I changed it around.
But now that I am done with "Reflections in the Water," it will give me time to look at this fanfic more. Also due to the late updates is because I got this game called Dark Alliance II. Once I started to play it I couldn't stop. I have a videogame problem.
I can't go one day without playing for at least an hour. Well I beat it with the Monk so now I can put more attention on writing.
Wisdom: Are you done?
Winter: Yeah, I'm gonna go play DDR now ja ne and may the sporks be with you!
Wisdom: And please review!
