I'mmmmm bbbbaaaaaaacccccccccckkkkkkkkkkk. So sorry! Please don't be mad. I won't give any dumb excuses either… I was bad and I accept that. And also, I've been informed that I've been spelling Yusuke's last name wrong…hehe… sorry… I tend to not pay attention. --u Thank's for pointing that out!

Goblins and Wands

She led the boys and Botan down the crowded path. On both sides, there were shops that were also crowded.

"I suppose you already have wands?" Hermionie stated, as she paused at bit at a store called Olvilanders.

"Actually, due to certain reasons, we don't." Kurama said.

"Bingo! That's what I forgot! Now, I suppose this is the place to get one, let's go!" Botan cheerfully said, as she started pulling the young girl in.

"Wait! You need money!" Hermionie said, while trying to save her arm from Botan.

"Oh, right." Botan relied, still happy as ever, and still holding on to the girls arm.

"Greengots (sp?) is right over here, I have my money exchanged all the time."

After a few more minutes of walking, the odd group stopped in front of a large building.

"This is Greengots the wizard bank… but I think I should warn you…" Hermionie explained.

"What?" The teens asked in unison.

"Well, all the workers there are Goblins."

"Goblins! You mean those short, evil, creepy guys in fairy tails?" Kuwabara exclaimed.

"Yes, and they're a bit rude, but it's fine." Hermionie said surprised at his reaction, and the lack of the others.

Well I guess it's not that strange. Spirit world is basically run by ogres. x.xBotan thought to herself.

"Well are you coming or not?" Yusuke called from the entry.

The air inside was cold, and would seem like walking into a library, if not for the goblins and whatnot running around. The group walked up to a not so busy goblin, to see if he could exchange their money, but he just gave Yusuke a strange look and pointed to a different counter.

This goblin seemed extremely irritated at the moment, fussing with a stack of papers, causing Botan to think of Koenma on one of his bad days.

"Excuse me." Hermionie said politely.

The goblin looked at them, and then continued on his work.

"Excuse me, we would like to exchange some money." Hermionie said determined.

This time the goblin did not even acknowledge her.

Hermionie was getting extremely angry with him, but before she could say anything else Kurama spoke.

"We would appreciate it if you would attend to us, and then continue with your work."

He looked up, "Look here you— " He stopped as he looked at Yusuke. Something felt wrong to him. Something about Yusuke was off to the goblin, but it shortly disappeared, and the goblin realized he had stopped talking.

"Well I never!" Botan yelled, "How do you expect any business when you treat your customers like that!" She said before storming off.

"Wait for me!" Kuwabara yelled as he ran out the goblin filled building.

"Fine then." The goblin said, though it sounded forced.

Kurama pulled out the money Koenma entrusted him with. It didn't look like much to Yusuke, but a surprisingly large pile of gold and silver replaced it.

Botan and Kurama carried the bulk of it, causing Yusuke to wonder if it was that nobody trusted him or something as they walked out the building.

The sun was still high in the sky, leaving plenty of shopping time, and Hermionie didn't waste anytime talking the group over to Olivanders. She thought it was strange that they didn't have wands. Wasn't there only one wand that worked well with someone? If they have been learning magic so long, how did they not have one? I think I'll research a bit at school. Hermionie thought to herself.

The wands seemed easy enough, both Botan and Kuwabara got the right one on the second wand, but Kurama's wand took a bit longer to find. Hermionie noticed the small group of Japanese teens silently laugh to themselves about the wand Suichi ended up with. She couldn't find the humor in a twelve and half inch rose wood wand with a hair of a thousand year old silver fox as the core. She assumed it was an inside joke. Then, it was Yusuke's turn. Hermionie only paid slight attention. She was making a list of the places they needed to go to in her head, until she was brought back to reality by aloud 'BANG'. It took her a moment to realize what happened. The wand Olivander had Yusuke try exploded!

"What did you do to it Urameshi!" Kuwabara yelled.

"I didn't do anything!"

"Oh dear, Oh dear." Olivander muttered as he looked at his destroyed wand.

Kurama walked over to the man. "Might I make a suggestion?"

"Wow Kurama, how did you know that would work?" Hermionie asked as they left the wand shop. Botan darted off to look through the windows and Yusuke and Kuwabara followed behind all of them.

"Oh just a guess." Kurama stated.

Kuwabara whispered to Yusuke, "So is there really one of Puu's hairs in there?"

"I guess so."

"You're pet's an ingredient. That's just creepy."

Forgive me for taking so long! I promise two more updates before July! (Or one long one) I just thought I would post this so you know I will be updating. Thank you all.
