A/N: Sorry Fatal Blow fans. I was thinking about just ending the story right there. But I can't disappoint my fans. Here's the update on Fatal Blow.

Outlaw Star-Fatal Blow

Chapter 4-24-The Word Spreads

That night Gene sat in the medical lab with Susuka the whole night. He didn't sleep at all. His love was too strong. But what he didn't know was that his Aisha had heard his confession of love to Susuka's unconscious body. The next day was filled with mishaps.

"Good morning Gene."

"Uhmpf"

"So you stayed here all night. Hmmm…wonder why!" she said sarcastically.

"Susuka is sick I was just making sure she didn't die that's all. Just watching over her."

"Are you sure?"

'Why wouldn't I be? Do you know something I don't?"

"No just asking you. See you later."

Aisha left the medical lab and upstairs for some breakfast.

"No Melfina! You have to add these seasonings!"

"But Jim, I know the recipe! It says a pinch of salt and a cup of pepper."

"Who taunt you that?"

"G-G-Gene! Weep! Weep!" Melfina bursts into tears and runs out of the kitchen into her room.

"Dumbass why'd you do that?"

"She needs to release her stress. And crying the best way to get rid of that shit."

"Hey! No cussing! You're not old enough! HaHaHa!"

"Ha Ha Ha, very funny!"

"I know it is!"

"Alright already! No more jokes. Let's eat."

"Woooo! Ok." Aisha says finishing her laugh session.

"So how the egg fish fillet?"

"Yumm nice and spicy! I'll go give Gene some."

Aisha gets up from the table and walks down the hall and around a corner.

………………

"AHHHHHHHHH! HOT!" Gene screamed from the medical lab.

"HaHaHa! Now that was funny!"

"Yeah Gene didn't like your food that much. He says its taste like the ocean and it's too spicy."

"Well duh! Fish tastes like the ocean and eggs are spicy."

"Whatever."

"So Aisha, Gene's still down in the lab with Susuka?"

"Yeah. He's been all fucking night!"

"Dam-I mean dang. That's a long time. Why's he so worried about Susuka?"

"Do you really want to know?"

"Umm, sure tell me."

"Well, last night, I was up looking for some crème and I heard Gene tell Susuka that he's in love with her."

"GENE'S IN LOVE WITH-"

"Ssshhhhhh! This is going to be our secret ok?"

"Promise!"

Gene comes up from the medical lab…alone. Then he reaches into the room and pulls Susuka out on one of the hospital rolling beds.

"Hey guys."

"Look what the cat dragged in!"

"Or the Susuka dragged in." Jim whispered to himself. Aisha gave him a quick, hard elbow in the chest to shut him up.

"So Gene what made you and Susuka leave the medical lab?"

"We have a mission. Fred Lou gave me a hit on some crew of nobody's holding up a town. He said they a 1 million yin bounty on there heads. Each."

"You don't sound that enthusiastic about this Gene."

"Well he should be because this is a chance for him to pay me back for all the money I could be earning at this very moment working. But somebody made me lose my job."

"Aisha I promise with these bounties we'll pay off the 10 thousand yin we owe you. Then I'll buy some medication for Susuka with my share."

"But Gene what about those DD cups you were going to buy Melfina for her birthday next month?"

"Jim, this is a lot more important."

"Gene was going to buy Melfina DD cups? What did she do Gene? I want to get DD cups too. Did she sleep with you? I can do that." She said looking at Gene seductively.

"Never mind all that. Where is Melfina?"

"I'll go get her!"

"Ok Jim! I'll be loading Susuka onto the disable section of the ship for launch preparation! Aisha, you can set the coriordinents."

"But I don't even know where to go! You should do it and I'll take care of Susuka."

"No! I'm taking Susuka! Now take this sheet and set the coridenents."

"You're such a pig fucking bastard Gene."

Aisha walked off.

"Naw. A Susuka fucking bastard."

Meanwhile…

"Melfina we have to leave for some bounty hunting."

"Is Gene coming?"

"Yeah."

"Well then I'm not going!"

"Melfina!"

"No, that's final."

"Well if you're going to be mad at him don't be mad at him because he broke up with you."

"What should I be mad about Jim?"

"Come here."

Whisper! Whisper! Whisper!

Melfina's eyes shot wide open.
