Kitana, Spike, and Jet all walked down the hallway looking like they just survived a freaking car wreck.

"Now I understand why no one goes after Teddy Bomber," Jet sighed as they all dragged themselves through the ship.

"Mmm?"

"Nobody wants to get his butt blown off in some damn explosion."

Kitana and Spike agreed.

Spike and Jet were lounging on the couch while Kitana was perched on top on the arm rest. Faye walked in carrying her dress in one hand and a tin can in the other. She threw the can to Kitana, who caught it with both hands.

"What the hell is this?" Kitana asked as she surveyed the can carefully.

Faye sighed, "Souvenirs…"

Kitana squinted her eyes at the triangular can.

"I'm not going to eat this can of crap," Spike said in disgust.

Kitana just shrugged. "Will it kill me?" She asked quietly.

"It's all we've got," Jet muttered as he lit up a cigarette.

"I'd rather starve!" Spike exclaimed.

Kitana leaned against the couch. "Why couldn't you have just gotten laid instead? Although, I think he might have been gay."

Faye huffed as Spike and Jet snickered.

"Oh, yeah? Well, why don't you just tell Spike about your little feelings for him, huh?"

Kitana smacked her hand against her forehead.

"Faye, I thought you and I both agreed to keep that a secret until he figured it out or she told him herself," Jet said.

Spike blushed a little and Kitana sunk lower in her seat on the arm rest. Jet got off the couch and walked past Faye, shoving her with his shoulder.

"You're more trouble than your worth," He told her as he left the room.

Ein barked at Spike and nuzzled one of the cans that lay under the coffee table.

"You'll be sorry." Spike turned up his nose at the dog.

"Andy really pushes your buttons. What is it about him that makes you so bent out of shape?" Kitana started to ask Spike.

Faye interrupted, "I know why he hates the guy. They're too much alike."

Spike sat up quickly, causing Kitana to fall to the floor.

"What part of me could be anything like that stupid ass?" Spike yelled as he slammed his fist down on the table.

Jet walked back in, wiping his hands on a hand towel.

"The part that makes you so damn troublesome," He replied. Faye nodded her head in agreement as Spike picked Kitana up off the floor on and put her back onto the couch.

"Thanks, Spike. Hey! We're missing Big Shots! It's already on!" Kitana cried out as she fought Faye for the remote.

After pinning Faye down, Kitana turned up the volume.

"Our final news item is on Ted Bower the Teddy Bomber, a.k.a. T.B.," The male exclaimed.

His whorish looking co-star added, "T.B. sent a letter to our station to read on our show!"

The male twitched a bit. He must be on drugs to have to put up this that dumb show and even dumber co-star.

"What? Are you kidding me?"

Kitana tuned out the blonde reading the letter and turned her attention towards Spike. Spike looked back and smiled at her. By this time, Kitana had completely tuned out the show until the theme music started playing. Spike reached for the remote, which sat next to Kitana's leg, and his fingers brushed up against her exposed skin, causing an electric current to shock its way through her nerves. He turned off the TV and threw the remote onto the coffee table.

"He's going to blow up City Hall," Ed said as she clacked away on her computer.

"You know already?" Jet asked.

Ed simply nodded, "Targets have been by height, starting with the tallest building."

Faye raised her eyebrows, "Really? It was something as simple as that?"

Jet was the first one to throw in the towel. "I'm out. I don't want this one. Screw getting my butt blown off."

Faye joined him, "Yeah… I'm going to pass too."

Spike turned to Kitana.

"Hey, don't look at me. I don't do solo missions and you know that," Kitana said as she threw her hands.

"Aww, look. The cute couple is going to get blown up together," Faye said in a mock cooing voice.

"Aww, look. The whore is going to go take an STD test. Andy might have had herpes or crabs," Kitana retorted sarcastically.
