Thanks for all the reviews, sorry it's taking me a while I had finished 3 chapters, and then Hurricane Charley struck FRYING MY FRIGGN COMPUTER!!!!....thanks for the reviews…..

Zenigata was breathing heavily as he tried to catch up with Lupin and the others. "Curse you arthritis," he said finally stopping at what seemed to be hours later. Lupin stopped and looked behind him. "Looks like we lost him," he said and everyone stopped. Megan was the only one who seemed like she could run another 3 miles. "I thought he'd never stop," Fujiko said collapsing onto a bench. "He sure does hate you Lupin," Megan said giggling. "Uh, where exactly are we any way," Jigen said looking around. "Do you even care," Goemon asked looking at Jigen who sat on the bench. "No not really just wondering how far we are from civilization," he said and laughed while lighting up a cigarette. Megan leaned up against a light pole and put her hands behind her head. "Smoking's bad for you ya know," Megan said looking at him. "Thanks mom," he remarked hating the kid's comments. "Hey it's getting dark we should walk back, after all we have a big day tomorrow," Lupin said looking at the darkness that approached them. "Damn them all they're probably laughing at me right now," Zenigata said sitting on a bench looking at the sky. "There's something about Lupin that just doesn't seem right these days….probably about to steal some other priceless artifact….and what's with that kid….she seems normal why is she with them…..is she another one of their gang…is that what Lupin's resorted too….small children to do his dirty work….and what was up with what she---," but before Pops could finish he caught a sight of someone standing beside him. "I'm not small you know, and I'm not a kid," it was Megan standing there, hands behind her head right in front of the one who was after and the only four people she knew. "WHAT HEY YOU'RE UNDER ARREST!" he said quickly whipping a hand cuff out of his trench coat. Megan smiled. "You know if I were to run, you'd never catch me," Megan said smirking evilly. "Besides why bother I'm sure you have better stuff to do then to chase Lupin anyway," Megan said. "LUPIN IS A WANTED CRIMINAL! AND WHO SAYS I WOULDN'T CATCH YOU!" Zenigata said leaping towards Megan. She dodged him. "Just you wait until I find out who you are, I'm sure you're family is worried," Zenigata said trying to get a lead on who she was, you can't put out a wanted poster of just someone's picture. Megan let out a small laugh. "I told you I don't have a family and the name's Megan," she said and sprinted off into the dimly lit alley way next to the bench Pops was sitting on. Zenigata wasn't surprised that Lupin had found this kid. "He has a knack for picking the most unique people," Zenigata heaved a sigh, she was right he'd never be able to catch her. The next day everyone met in the hotel room for the final preparation for the robbery. "Okay everyone Pablo should be leaving in 20 minutes so we have just enough time to get there right before he leaves," Lupin said and began digging through a bag he had with him. He threw a walkie-talkie at Megan. "Contact us through this, are you sure you know what to do?" he asked. "Ask me that again and it might be your last," Megan caught the walkie-talkie smiling. "Okay well we know what to do then, come on guys," Lupin said and Jigen, Lupin, and Goemon ran down to the street in their car and drove off. Megan turned on her laptop. Fujiko watched her until she got bored and left without saying anything. Lupin pulled up to the deserted street 23 minutes before the running of the bulls started. Jigen pulled out the walkie-talkie and tossed it to Lupin. "Can you hear me," Lupin said speaking into the microphone. "Wow the 15 mile radius wasn't kidding, and I thought these were cheap," came a voice through the speaker. "Kids," Jigen said. "Ok they should be getting the new code about now try and see if you can pick up their frequency," Lupin said talking through the microphone. Megan picked a small HAM radio and tuned in the frequency. Megan wasn't talking to Pops for nothing, she actually was planting a transmitting device to the telephone antenna when she saw him. Megan turned the knob until she heard a voice from the small radio. Some one was giving out a code. "Okay the code is 45-67-902," Megan said into the walkie-talkie. "Gotcha," Lupin said. The guys watched as a limousine pulled up and Pablo and some guys stepped into it, after the men stepped in the limo pulled off. "Okay guys show time," Lupin said smirking.
