Shrimpin' Shrimpin'

Disclaimer: Just a fun idea I had come to mind.

Summary: Anya has a wild money making idea…


"I'm telling you, this idea would easily put everyone in a good place moneywise and cement our own places in Capitalistic Legend. I mean, Mrs. Summers is clearly in a good place because of it." Argued Anya to the so called Scooby Gang at large in the Magic Box.

"My Art Gallery, the gift that keeps on giving." Smiled Joyce, whom had been quite helpful in helping Giles get the Magic Box going considering her own experiences in the area of small business management.

Giles sighed heavily as Anya had been unrelenting in getting him and the others to get on board with her idea. Said idea being to start an import shipping business of Shrimp to the World Without Shrimp as she believed such a venture would would finance them greatly. "I know you believe quite strongly on this affair, Anya, but such an operation would be quite costly in certain areas. Not to mention we've no idea if the inhabitants of that world would even be able to tolerate Shrimp in their diet." Tried to reason the man.

"W-We wouldn't wa-want to, to poison anyone." Threw in Tara.

"So far, no one there has reacted badly to Shrimp and even if they do, we can provide something to help deal with the reaction. And I know a few Demons who'd be willing to help us import the Shrimp."

Everyone looked at the former Vengeance Demon. "And now I finally know what it is you've been doing with those spell books. And why your place tends to smell like Shrimp." Xander said with a shake of the head while at the same time, fondly smiling at his girlfriend.

Anya smiled back at him. "But, that's, that's dangerous!" Declared Willow in shock.

"Not if you know what you're doing and trust me, after a thousand years? I know what I'm doing." Anya told her in a firm manner.

Something that made Willow feel somewhat offended by as she felt that was an attack on her while Tara squeezed her hand in comfort. "Well, it sounds crazy, but why not, can't hurt to try. Maybe we can ask Angel if he and the others want in on this." Buffy said with a shrug and Giles then and there felt like he needed a good strong drink.

"Oh, good Lord."

For the man knew he was defeated in his argument as Anya let out a yell of joy and began to dance happily. And not so surprisingly, the Shrimping Import would make them A LOT of money much to Anya's pure joy and smugness. Cordy would throw every bit of her support into the whole thing as well considering it meant not having to worry about money troubles anymore!
