Annie is the owner of a convenience store on Mars, and an old friend
of Spike, Julia, and Mao Yenrai. Her name is short for "Anastasia", although she
allows only two certain people (presumably Mao and her late husband) to address
her as such. First introduced in Ballad of Fallen Angels Annie is shown to be a
keen informant and in general a very sharp lady, catching two juveniles trying
to steal adult magazines from her news rack while seemingly not paying attention
to them. Annie informs Spike of Mao's assassination by Vicious. She also carries
a variety of small arms and supplies Spike with a Beretta pistol and a large
carton of ammunition. She also chides Spike for seeking to avenge his mentor (by
picking a fight with Vicious) and calls him a stubborn show off. Annie is
fatally wounded in the stomach prior to Spike and Julia's arrival in the two-part
conclusion, "The Real Folk Blues". She dies soon after their arrival.
