Chapter 1 - Vicious encounter

 

“You stupid lunkhead!! What is your problem?!”

 

“My problem?? Faye I simply asked you a question and you just started mouthing off. What's the matter; scared I might have discovered your little secret?”

 

Faye was fuming by each second that passed. “You sun of a bitch get out of my face!!!” she shoved Spike out of the way and stormed off to her room.

Jet glanced at Spike with an all too familiar look. “Spike, was that even necessary?”

 

He shrugged. “I was bored”

 

Jet shook his head in defeat. “Asking a girl if her breasts are real or fake is not exactly something to ask”

 

“I was just teasing man, besides I'm bored”

 

“Well in that case make yourself useful and go catch a bounty”

 

Spike shrugged yet again and made his way to the o so famous yellow couch. “Let's see what's on big shot then”

Faye sat in her room smoking her cigarette with thoughts of Spike's stupid insults in her mind. ((Why does he have to be such a lunkhead?)) She sighed and dismissed the thought; there were more important things to think about. Like how in the hell had her debts instantly cleared off. Someone had paid everything for her, but who? Certainly not Spike and Jet, they didn't have enough money to eat as it was.

 

It had been not so long ago that she received a letter stating that all her debts were cleared. It was simply shocking, who in the world could have done something like this for her?

She stood up and picked up her the secret stash of money she'd been hiding under her mattress for at least a month. “Ahh, 900 woolongs. Time for me to buy some food before we all starve to death”

 

She silently walked out of her room and left a note in the kitchen about going out shopping. Come to think of it what was she going to buy? They had stopped in Mars for a few days and the food was not the most exquisite around these areas, at least cheap food.

Faye decided not to spend too much money on this little shopping spree, after all money didn't grow on trees. ((Maybe I should just buy hot dogs for everyone and leave it at that)). She quickly spotted a hot dog cart with a tall man standing there. Faye walked towards it and bought about 10 hot dogs. On the way back Faye noticed something odd, for some reason her instincts where screaming at her. Someone was following her. She swiftly placed her hand to her gun and carried on walking. Before she could even scream someone grabbed her arm and pulled it away for her gun and dragged her into a dark ally. This bastard was certainly going to pay.

 

“Now, now, miss Valentine. No need to struggle. I'm only here to talk”

 

She stopped moving and froze. She knew that voice!!

 

“I gather you know who I am?”

 

All she could do was nod before the attacker turned her around and revealed his face to her.

 

“V-Vicious…”

 

He smirked and let go of her arms completely. He locked eyes with her and gave her another bone chilling smirk, but Faye wasn't going to show him she was scared, her pride wouldn't allow it.

 

“What do you want from me?”

 

He was about to reply before deciding against it. He wanted to have little fun with the vixen. He gently caressed her cheek with a finger and moved close to whisper in her ear. Faye stood still, not sure if it was the fact that she was dead scared of him or the simple fact that she found this encounter strangely enticing.

 

“There are so many things I want from you miss Valentine” a slight shiver went down her spine as he spoke to her in a tone she had never heard from him.

Faye quickly pushed him and made to run but he grabbed her arm and pulled her to him. “Don't make this hard Faye. I just want to talk” he smirked when she stopped struggling. “By the way, did you like the way I took care of your debts?”

Faye stared at him wide eyed. How on earth had he even known let alone managed to pay for her. What did he want?

“Why?” her words were almost a whisper.

 

He bent down and whispered in her ear again, “Because I like you miss Valentine and because I could always use it as blackmail”

 

Faye gaped at what he said.

 

“Is that why you paid my debts? So you could blackmail me into anything you wanted?!! You're a fool Vicious. I have nothing in this world that you could possibly blackmail me with. Just because you paid my debts does not mean I will work for you or do anything you tell me to do. So leave me the fuck alone!!”

 

He watched her with curiosity and smiled at the way his name rolled off her tongue so…….beautifully. He was definitely going soft on this woman but he couldn't help it. ((Damn it, she's so different from Julia. So intriguing, and Spike hasn't made any claims on her but I know he cares for her. It's obvious. Good, it'll be a pleasure to take her away from him)) Faye stared at him. Did Vicious even do that? Seeing him smile was rare and it seemed strange that he would do so in front of her. It was disturbing.

 

“I'm not sure I can do that miss Valentine. You see as I said before, I like you and I would like to make a little compromise with you”

 

As much as she wanted to know what he wanted she had to get away, this was completely freaking her out. But she had a fair idea of what to do to get out of this. Even though she wasn't sure if she would like it.

She placed her lips to his and pressed him against the wall. Vicious being the man that he was didn't question her actions and let her continue. He knew what she was trying to do and he'd probably let her get away with it. Why, he didn't know. But for some reason since the last time he had kidnapped her he couldn't stop thinking about her. She might come in handy sometime, besides she owed him since he paid for all of her debts. But there was another reason for all of his `kind' actions; this would be the only way to lure Spike to him yet again. And this time he was going to end this little game they were playing. Spike was going to die once and for all.

 

He groaned when he felt her press harder against him, while her hands tangled themselves with his platinum hair. This was getting interesting. He wrapped his arms around her and moved his mouth away from hers only to start nibbling on her neck. His smile grew wider as he heard her moan involuntarily at his touch. She was loosing control. Good.

 

“I believe your plan to distract me backfired on you Miss Valentine” he mumbled contently.

 

Faye's eyes slightly widened; she had totally forgotten why she had started kissing him in the first place. ((Shit!!)). But Faye wasn't going to admit it to him so instead she placed a gentle kiss on his lips. “Who says I had a plan” She smirked confidently and slowly let her hands wander over his chest, moving his ever so present coat aside so she had more access. His chest was surprisingly muscular, and suddenly she found herself wondering how it would feel to touch him like this without any layers of clothing separating her hands from his body. ((Arrgh!! What am I thinking!! This is Vicious; he's a cold blooded killer!!))

“Who says I don't want you to kiss me….” she smiled to him in the most sensual way; even a man like Vicious couldn't resist. She teased his lips with hers, while softly nibbling on his lower lip “…again”

 

He searched her eyes for any hint as to what she was playing at but he couldn't find a single clue. He had always been able to tell what Julia truly felt by just staring into her eyes. To him a person's eyes were an open window to their emotions but this woman, she was something else. She was capable of hiding her emotions so easily. Then, before he could register what had happened, Faye had kicked him in the stomach, pretty hard for a woman too. He also noticed that she had taken his Katana.

 

“My Katana!!” He coughed. “Dammit, come back here!!”

Faye ran as fast as she could and reached the Red-tail just in time. Her fingers worked frantically over the controls. “Dammit what the hell is wrong now?!”

 

“Fuel level low” the computer stated.

 

She looked around and saw Vicious's figure approach the ship. He was getting close.

 

“Shit!!” she continued to press the initiation button, hoping the ship would start anyway. “C'mon, c'mon!!”

 

The ship still didn't move. Her luck seemed to be running out very fast. Before she could even realise what had happened Vicious yanked her out of the seat and grabbed her, but in the process he lost balance and caused both of their bodies to collide to the ground.

 

After a few minutes of silence Faye started to move. Vicious was lying on the floor just beneath her. She silently moved in hopes that he wouldn't notice but his arms swiftly grabbed her waist and kept her there. “And where, may I ask, do you think you're going?” He stated. His voice didn't mask the anger he felt towards her right now ((How dare she take my Katana)). His Katana was one of the most important things he had; his mother had given it to him the first time he had learned how to use a sword and he wasn't about to let some woman take it away from him. No matter how beautiful she was. That sword was perhaps the only memory he had of his mother.

 

“Let go of me!!” she attempted to punch him but he grabbed both her wrists and flipped their position so he'd be on top.

 

“As much as I'm enjoying our little wrestling match I have things to attend to. And you, my dear, are coming with me” his voice was emotionless, so different from what he sounded like a few minutes ago.

Faye gave him a cold look and tried once again to get up but he had her pinned to the floor. He gently lifted himself up, still holding unto one of her wrists, and picked up his precious katana.

 

“Now, either you come with me silently or I'm going to have to knock you out”

 

“Hn, trust a guy like you to want to solve his problems with violence. What exactly do you want from me?” She stopped struggling and allowed him to lead the way while they walked towards a black limousine. There was no point in fighting him, especially when he was this pissed off.

 

“It's simple really. You just play your role of innocent victim and I kidnap you. Then I send a message to Spike stating that I have you once again and he will come running to the rescue. An then….” A sinister smirk formed on his face, “….well everything else is left to lady luck I suppose. After all Spike is as good a fighter as I am, but eventually one of us will fall”

He opened the door of the car and pushed her in, “C'mon get in”

 

“Jeez, you are such a gentleman Vicious” sarcasm poured out of her mouth like a river. “Look, if you want to fight Spike why do you have to kidnap me?”

“Because it is much easier this way. Besides he took my woman, and now it's time I pay him back”

 

Faye chuckled at this. Vicious needed to get his facts right, Spike didn't care about her and she definitely wasn't anyone's woman.

 

“You've got it all wrong. Spike doesn't feel anything for me. All we do is argue. I am definitely not his woman”

 

Vicious smirked, “You seem to forget that we used to be friends. I know what he's like. When he came to your rescue last time I could see it in his eyes how much he really cared about you. After Julia's death I'm guessing he doesn't want to risk giving you his heart since that would put you at risk”

 

Faye stared at him incredulous. How could a man so cold and calculated even talk about feelings.

 

He closed the door of the limousine and gestured for the driver to go. He then glanced at Faye who couldn't help but stare at him with a strange look. “I'm not totally emotionless Faye” His tone of voice was strangely different like it almost had emotion to it, but as soon as it was there it was gone. “Now, I need you to behave and keep quiet. You think you can handle that, Miss Valentine?”

 

She turned her face in the opposite direction so as not to face him and remained silent. Vicious took it as a yes and smirked. ((This should be interesting)).

Spike walked into the kitchen hoping to miraculously find something to eat in the fridge, he frowned when he found nothing. “Darn it, I am soooo hungry” he said to no one in particular. He then spotted a note on the kitchen counter. It was from Faye.

 

Gone shopping, be back soon!!

Faye. : )

 

He chuckled and dumped the note in the bin. Well he would just have to wait for Faye to return before he could eat anything. The ship seemed dull without Faye's presence; he had to admit she did take his mind off a lot of the things that were bothering him. He couldn't help but wonder just how much she was affecting him. He had come so used to having her around that he found himself wandering what he would feel like if she ever left the Beebop.

((Why the hell am I even thinking this way? Jesus, the lack of food is making me think stupid))

He mumbled a few curses before plopping himself on the couch and turned on the television.

“Make yourself comfortable Miss Valentine. This is going to be your room from now on. I gather it's better than that tin can you call ship”

 

Faye glared at him and remained silent; she had to admit, for a cold blooded killer he evidently had good taste. The room was three times the size of the bebop. There was an en-suite bathroom in the corner of the room and a massive wardrobe just opposite a double bed.

 

“Well usually it's the company that counts. And obviously you're the last person I'd want to be with right now” she spit resentfully.

Vicious only smirked and placed his Katana in a near corner of the room, then he slowly walked towards the bed and began to remove his shoes.

Faye watched him unsure of what he intended to do so she simply watched curious as to wear he was going with this.

 

He then removed his long black coat and placed it on a chair nearby.

 

“What the hell are you doing?” he was seriously starting to freak her out.

 

He looked up lazily at her and just continued to undress until only his boxers where left. “What does it look like I'm doin, Faye?”

 

“Well if you think for a fucking minute that I'm going to sleep with you then you are out of your fucking mind!! I'm not scared of you”

Her words evoked a cold laughter from him. He found it amusing how she could easily loose her temper. He found it actually………cute.

 

“Really?”

 

Faye summoned all of the courage she had to keep her composure; he was giving her the strangest of looks. One thing she knew about Vicious was that he was full of surprises and was not to be underestimated in the least.

He sat up from the bed eyeing her with an ever present smirk on his face.

 

“What?” she asked perturbed by his silence. He moved closer and closer until he was inches away from her and grabbed her neck.

 

“Don't make me give you something to be scared about Miss Valentine…..” his trademark bone-chilling grin appeared on his face and Faye couldn't help but realise she was indeed slightly scared of what he might do to her. “…..it's better for you to just be nice and do as you are told. If you don't it will only make your stay unpleasant, and I wouldn't like to be rude to such a beautiful guest as you” he smirked and let go of her neck, which was slightly red the grip that Vicious had held on it.

Faye remained silent and watched him regardless of her fear towards him. “Now, I have no intention of forcing you to do anything you don't want to. But that is if you don't want to…….” He chuckled when she glared at him. “you're room is being temporarily unavailable so I'm afraid you're going to have to share it with me……..there is enough room for the both of us so don't worry about being uncomfortable” he laughed when he saw the look on her face.

 

“Well you could always sleep on the floor. I'm sure since you're living on that tin can of a ship that you are more used to sleeping on the floor” he chuckled again and slipped into bed. Hoping that she would opt for the bed; he hadn't had a woman by his side for quite awhile. ((Grrr……women are just trouble, I shouldn't be thinking this way. I have better things to do. Even though I wouldn't mind fucking the living daylights out of her….)) he laughed within himself and made himself in the covers, waiting for her to make her move. Somehow he figure she would just choose the floor as she was quite stubborn, which he liked.
