Author/Artist: katilara
Theme(s): #10 Messenger
Pairing/Characters: Spike Spiegel, Annie, Mao Yenrai, Vicious
Rating: PG13 for violence
Disclaimer/claimer (if needed): I do not own Cowboy Bebop, but if I did I would STILL want to have Watanabe's children.
Summary (if needed): Spike's created a new life for himself in the big city of Tharsis, but it's unweildy, and he can't always control it.
A/N: It's been more than 2 months. *hides* I've been toying with this chapter since December and it's still driving me insane. But I really like the third chapter and want to just get on with it, so I'm giving up on tinkering with this one. I've just come to terms with the fact that it's a getting there chapter. Thanks to marilla82 for the hot chocolates at B&N and betaing. I can't do anything without her, seriously.

If you're late to the party, you can find Ch. 1 here: Vicious One
