Princess of the Monkeys: Wow, hehe, I got reviews. I'm so proud of myself! Let me see. Should I put thanks in the beginning or the end? I think now, it will make a bit more sense. Hehe thanks to everyone!

Maiden Misty: Yay! Isn't it fun reviewing fics! I find myself doing it more then I write! Hehe, but they're so long they could be a story!



KokushibyouOni: Oh, I feel so loved Ryoko, saying you noticed it was mine then your thought that it was cool left. (And it looks like I'm posting!) Err. Yah.



Were-Monkey Chick: I'm not giving my dog a cookie! And when I told him what you said he promised you would be dead before you got to make your next review! I hope he was joking!



Flirtatious Flamingo: (I don' mind if you don't sign in!) Actually it doesn't have to do that much with wishes. I guess I kinda made it sound like that though. And uh, I don't think you want to know what my dog said about your comment hehe. Darn, he's more popular then me! And I'm the one doing all the typing! Stupid possessed dog.

Clu: Of course I'm famous! Did you ever doubt my infinite power?

Only kinda!

Clu: -frowns- Baka.



*~*~*~*~



The cemetery was quite after the funeral for everyone's beloved Mr. Chiba, who had died instantly after being shot two weeks before.



Since the murder of Mr. Chiba, Serena had been assigned to work on the case. She had only investigated one night of the two weeks, the others she was interviewing all of Mr. Chiba's works, family members, and friends.



Usagi walked up to her father's grave trying to hold back her tears, which were burning at her eyes. She had walked outside to talk to her friend, and there was a loud shot. 'I bet it was Serena, she told me to go in the back. She's been mad at him ever since he married Raye. But Serena and my tousan were never even married! Why should she do that?'



Everything was horrible at the office. Serena replaced her, back to deskwork. Every day, she would see Trunks and Serena walking off to go investigate or interview. She hated it. Trunks was 29 and she was only 21. Serena was 37, Usagi often thought of her as a slut. She didn't believe Serena was her real kaasan.



She placed her hands on his tombstone and cried. The autumn leaves floating peacefully to the ground around her. Her white raincoat blew in the wind. She pushed some of her hair out of her face. "It's not fair. You were a good man, tousan. Why did you have to die? Why would anyone want to kill you?" She turned around as her heard a large branch fall from a tree.



A short man wearing a white suit walked up to her and put his hand on her shoulder. "Who are you?" she asked, backing up into the grave marker of her dead father.



"I am your father's friend." Shadows lurked over his face, she couldn't see his eyes, or nose. His lips curled with every word he spoke, as if he were enjoying it. "He was a good man." She nodded, still afraid of him. "I know who killed your father…" he said, half-mocking, half-singsong voice.



"Who are you?" She became more afraid.



"Does that really matter? You're so pretty, much like your mother." He stretched the last word.



She blinked, trying to make her tears disappear. "Who are…?" She stopped as she looked around for him. He was gone. 'Where did he go off to? Who was he, how does he know my father and Serena?' She looked at her pure silver watch Raye and her father had given her for her 20 birthday. The silver second hand ticked around the dark blue back ground. It was around 4:30, she had to be getting home soon or Raye would start to worry.



She got into her black convertible and let the roof down. She looked at the grave marker one last time then drove down the road, she turned on the radio and drove to the office. Trista would like this information she picked up from that man, now that she thought about it.
