I don't own Bebop. read away.........
Unexplainable Actions.
You could hear them a mile away, screaming like that. I sighed and put my real hand on my hip, while the metal one continued to stir the soup. Then, all the sudden it just stopped. The screaming the shouting just stopped. All I could hear was the boiling and popping of the liquid in the pot. After a moment, I began to feel a little worried and couldn't help but to walk down the hallway. I was trying not to make so much noise, but my damn boots just kept clinking up against the floor. I could hear the air conditioning hushing throughout the ship and the silence was so thick, it made my ears feel clogged. I stopped right outside the metal door and I could hear gasping sounds radiating from the room. That's when I got the feeling I really wasn't supposed to be there at that moment, and I left. I ran back to the kitchen and continued to cook, feeling as though I had been busted for something. I stopped in my tracks and mentally slapped myself.
"Jet Black. You are a grown man, stop acting like some kid who just walked in on their parents having sex. Besides, you didn't do anything wrong.." I told myself out loud. Even though I said I didn't do anything wrong, it felt as thought I did. The sound of feet patting against the metal floor brought me back to my senses. I turned around and saw Edward sitting down at the table with her laptop in her arms. It caught me off guard really, I secretly prayed to myself that she didn't hear me talking out loud like a deranged lunatic. But her face is what puzzled me the most, it wasn't the usual sunshiny, carefree, slightly crazy expression. Ed bit her bottom lip as she tried to concentrate on the glowing computer screen. Different lights danced across her bronze skin which was paler then usual. Ein came trotting in and plopped down right over her feet. I turned back to the soup which was over-boiling and turned off the fire.
"Search Query not found. Please try again." I glanced over my shoulder and saw Ed take a deep breath before typing in some other words. But the computer answered in the exact same robotic voice.
"Search Query not found. Please try-" she pushed a button and the computer turned off.
"If your hungry, go right ahead and fix yourself some," I intrusted, putting the top over the pot with my prostatic hand. I knew the lid was piping hot because I could see the steam floating off the top. That didn't stop Edward from getting up from her seat and picking up the lid with her bare hands as soon as I put it down. I took a step back as she quickly flung it on the stove, grabbed two bowls and began to fill them to the brim. I watched her as she carried both bowls to the table, covered one with foil, took it back to her room, then returned. The girl sat down at the table quietly and started to sip the soup carefully to avoid burning her lips. I wiped my hands on my pants and turned towards her. "What are you doin with that other bowl?" I asked curiosity. Normally I wouldn't get into Ed's business. Normally I wouldn't care what she was doing with the soup. Not even if she planned on taking a bath in it. But things didn't seem right with her, and I needed something to take my mind off that guilty feeling deep in the pit of my stomach. I watched Ed as she stirred the soup, watching patiently for an answer.
"Saving it," she replied in a mono-toned voice.
"For what?" I pressed on, suddenly realizing she took the biggest bowls.
"A rainy day," was her answer. I was a tad big disappointed because she didn't give any more insight into her actions. It was the kind of answer I would expect from Spike or Faye. It was cold, simple and boxed in. In other words, she just told me to mind my own business. Edward got up and wrapped what was left of her soup and left the kitchen. Even Ein looked a little confused.
"What has gotten into these kids?"
