Welcome to Bebop: "Bye-Bye Bounty" – Chapter 1

Running in the rain, through the dark alleyways as Spike runs as fast as he can to catch his bounty, so he can get his hands on the reward. His bounty was trying to avoid him as she was carrying a bag full of drugs. She was going to a meeting place where she would sell her bag full of drugs to a gang who would pay her 30,000 wulongs for it. Huffing and puffing nearly running out of breath, she quickly turned behind her back and sighed in relief that Spike was nowhere near and that she could not see any sign of him. She decided to walk in the rain, to catch her breath. Few minutes later she arrived at the meeting place at a deserted warehouse, soaking wet. Gazing at the number of people with military weapons through her sad dark blue eyes, she decided to play cool and give them the drugs, for she couldn't trust them.

"So have you brought it?" said the leader of the gang.
"Yeah I did "replied Spike's bounty. The leader of the gang gestured his right hand swiftly to one of his members with dark brown hair to take the bag full of drugs. Spike's bounty handed the bag to him. He took the bag, opened it and examined them carefully and nodded his head to notify his leader that the drugs were real. He put them back into the bag placed it beside his feet. She asked the leader calmly "Where's the money? You promised me that you would give it to me, that was part of our deal"
"Of course. As promised" The leader gestured his hand again and the same person who took the bag grabbed a large suitcase and gave it to her. She opened the case and examined it. She smiled, as she was happy with the results. "Not so fast "said Spike as he aimed his gun at her back. The leader's face grew wide with astonishment, as he could not believe his eyes that a bounty hunter had discovered him and his gang.

She turned to Spike, as her face grew white and said with surprise "But-but how, how could you find me? I lost you in the alleys how was that possible?" "I've found a short cut" Spike grinned, as he knew he was pushing her buttons. "Drat!" She muttered underneath her breath. Suddenly a bullet pierced through her chest, blood came gushing out of her body as she stumbles towards the ground. Spike quickly caught her and placed her gently on the ground, hoping that she would not die, for he could not bare to lose another reward. He saw the smoke coming out of the leader's gun and quickly shot the leader on his right shoulder. The leader wailed in pain and agony, ordering his gang to retreat and to take the money, and the drugs with them. Spike ran to catch them, but suddenly stopped as he could hear her mumbling and coughing. He walked towards her and kneeled down on her side and listened to her.

"P-please forgive me. I only did it to save my son" She began to cough up a lot of blood. Spike blinked at her. "You're son?" He then heard a baby's voice and saw something moving in her blood stained trench coat. He removed her coat and saw a baby in a baby- strap, covered in blood. His eyes grew big and trembled in shock. "Yes. My son. I-I had no choice. I couldn't bare to loose him. It was my only chance. I had to risk it" She looked at Spike, as she grew tired and smiled wearily. Tears began to fall down her white pale face. "P-please look after my son. Take care of him, when I'm gone" She handed him her son. Spike took her son in his arms and stared at the baby. He quickly looked at her and quickly blurted out "Hey! Wait a sec! I can't-" But he was too late and he was cut off as he saw her past out silently. He sighed, as he knew that it was over. There was no reward for him and the fact that he has no choice but to look after her baby. "Damn it! I lost another reward again and I have to take care of this kid!" Spike said in frustration and held the baby in the air so that they were staring at each other face to face. He sighed once again and looked at the baby's dead mother. He removed the baby-strap off her and attached it to himself and the baby. He grabbed his blue blood stained coat and wrapped it around the baby.

"Spike. Are you there? Did you get her?" said Spike's comrade, Jet through the transmitter. Spike grabbed his transmitter in his coat, turned it on and replied, "No I didn't. She's dead."
"Damn it! Not again!" cursed Jet through his transmitter. "Yeah I know. I think I'm some of kind of curse or something" "Heh, you're probably are. All right get back to the ship, you hear me Spike?" "Yeah. I hear ya loud and clear" Spike turned off his transmitter and put it back in his coat. He stared at the baby and said to him "All right let's get back to ship so we can get clean up" He walked out of the warehouse and through the dark alleys, in the rain and back to the Bebop and flew back to the ship where Jet, Faye, Ed and Ein lived.
