Hello!

Thanx for reviews! Enjoy

Bree

"Marx", Faye Gasped, "I…Uh…How did you find me?"

The shadowed figure in the doorway gave an exaggerated, fake laugh. "Oh Faye, you Have not changed a bit. Have you? Did you really think you could hide from me? That I wouldn't look for you?" Marx walked over to the edge of the bed and lent on the frame staring at Faye. "I always have the last laugh Faye, always."

Faye looked desperately around for something to find to us as a weapon. She caught sight of a photo frame on the bedside table, she lunged at it and threw it as hard as she could at Marx's face. He stumbled back as the frame hit him in the head causing it to bleed. Faye Jumped of the bed and ran along the cold floorboards to the door, flinging it open she emerged into a long corridor. She saw a staircase at the end and ran towards it as fast as she could, suddenly she heard a voice behind her…
"Run, run as fast as you can Faye"
Faye began to turn when she felt and burning pain in her calf, she collapsed onto the ground, blinded by pain. After then she only heard the echoing footsteps coming closer and then all her worries slipped away.

Spike sat outside the large mansion. The swordfish was parked 3 blocks away so it wasn't picked up. The mansion was heavily guarded with all sorts of technology and people. Spike approached the large fence and looked up. The wall was so large it cast a heavy shadow all the way across the street. Spike walked down to the gate and saw many foot holes. He jumped up and leapt down the other side. Standing up straight, Spike looked around, he saw two men coming towards him and immediately pulled out his gun, the two men shot at him, Spike rolled behind a tree and felt a rain of shots down onto the trunk. He jumped out and shot four shots. The men fell down and Spike ran over to them kicking their guns away. He felt a sting in his arm and noticed a small cut in his jacket where a bullet had grazed his arm, he ignored the pain and continued to the large oak doors in front of him. Spike walked carefully down the hall, checking every room as he went. No one was around and Spike suspected something. He approached the stairs expecting an ambush of some sort but nothing happened. Baffled by the easiness of the rescue he continued up the stairs. Reaching another long corridor Spike noticed blood on the ground and a stab of worry shot through his heart.
'Faye'
Spike walked past the blood to the only door he hadn't checked, opening it he saw a figure on the bed. The pale woman's hair was draped over half her face and a bloodied bandage lay wrapped around her calf.

"FAYE!" Spike ran over to the bed and brushed the hair out of her face, Faye's skin was cold and sweaty.

"Faye?" Spike shook her shoulders, "Faye? Faye wake up!"

Faye didn't even move, the only response Spike got was the raspy breathing, she had lost a lot of blood. Spike scooped Faye up in his arms and took her out into the hallway. He reached the top of the stairs when Spike heard footsteps approaching the winding stairway. Running as fast as he could with Faye in his arms, Spike went back into the bedroom. Laying Faye on the bed he arranged her too look like she had always been there. The footsteps got louder and louder as the approached the room. Spike sprinted to the wardrobe and got in, leaving a gap for him to see. Marx Valentine walked into the room and straight to the bed. He brushed Faye's hair away and traced his finger across her lips. Bending over her figure Marx kissed her lightly. Spike clenched his fist and grabbed his gun in his pocket he pointed it out through the gap in the wardrobe, ready…aim…
"Marx. Sorry to interrupt but, the meeting"
Marx cleared his throat and walked out of the room closing the door behind him, Spike heard the latch click on the lock and cursed under his breath. He emerged from the wardrobe and over to the bed, Faye was the same. He went over to the window and looked out to find an escape. There was a drop of one window and another on the second. Spike ran over to the door and pulled out his gun, firing a shot into the lock. The door creaked open and spike checked the corridor to make sure no one was there. When he was assured it was clear, he sprinted back to Faye and again scooped her up carefully. This time she groaned.
"Faye it's me, Spike", Spike whispered trying to reassure her. "Don't worry, you're safe now, with me."

Spike eased out into the corridor and walked down it again. He got to the top of the stairs and listened for movement. Nothing, he continued down the stairs into the main hall. No one was around.

'Pfft, so much for heavy security, thanks Ed', He thought. Spike was walking past a door when he heard voices coming from inside it.

'The meeting.' Thought Spike continuing to the front door. He felt movement in his arms and looked down to see Faye's eyes easing open.

"Sspike" said Faye weakly.

"Shhh Faye your safe."

Faye seemed to sigh at this thought and shut her eyes again.

'She looks really pale' thought spike 'I'll have to hurry'.

When they reached the Swordfish Spike layed Faye gently on the seat and climbed in next to her.

'That was a little too easy'

He took off…destination Bebop.

Faye opened her eyes and adjusted to the darkness, a thought struck through her as she lay there.

'Oh my God, I've been caught again'

She looked around and noticed she was in Spikes room on the Bebop. A slight throbbing was in her calf and as she went to peel back the covers to look she noticed Spike with his head on his hands asleep, His legs kneeling on the floor and his head on the bed. Faye smiled and moved around, lying on her stomach so that her face lay just in front of his, barely an inch apart. Faye looked at him smiling. She studied his whole face. The creases on his forehead and the way his mouth twitched while he slept. His hair hung over his face, itching his left eye. Faye moved her hand towards his face and brushed the hair from his eyes. Spike opened his eyes and saw Faye, he smiled slightly and did a strange sort of growl. Faye smiled at him and moved her hand onto his, Spike threaded his fingers into hers and the two fell back to sleep…
