Chappie ter numero tres!

Kurama at work, and the second contest.

Disclaimer: Oi, can't I ever get any peace? Why me? Why am I so unfortunate to not own a show that rivals my own sparkliness! I do not own YuYu Hakusho! WHAAAAAAAAAA!! *Sobs* *Stops Sobbing* Enough about that, lets get on with the show!

*A week since chappie- ter numero dos*

Kurama had been looking through every newspaper known to man, and ever website. He had finally found a job that wasn't messy, had a nice atmosphere, no kids, and a good pay. He had chosen to work at a place called Garden Secrets. He could use his youki for the good of the company. He smiled. His work started tomorrow.

"Whoa, look at that kid run!" some random dude from gym class said. Hiei smiled. This wasn't even half of his normal speed, but he still was running laps around all of the other ningens. Hiei had decided to be on track team. If you were in a sport, you weren't looked down upon as much. He ran another lap. This helped clear his head. He still needed more money. He suddenly remembered where Yusuke and the Baka were. The fighting competition was today. Hiei would grace the ningens with his presence and win a load of money at the same time.

***at Garden Secrets***

"Thank You very much, and come back again soon for all your garden needs!" Kurama waved and smiled. He had made a good choice. The uniform he had to wear didn't look that bad on him either. "Hey, Kurama, that's your fourth sale today! How do you do it?" His co-worker, a guy named Chris, said in amazement. "Oh, I just love plants," Kurama turned to water a rosebush. It seemed to become more fragrant and blossoming with just that little bit of attention Kurama turned towards it. He turned, ready to help another customer.

***At the Fighting Contest***

"And the winner in our swordship contest is Hiei!" The announcer said. "This is his first time here at this contest, and already he has advanced to the semi finals, knocking everybody out in only ONE HIT!" The crowd went wild. Hiei jumped down to get some lunch. Meanwhile in the fistfighting competition, Yusuke and Kuwabara were knocking out people right and left. Yusuke smiled, and did one of those anime peace thingys to the audience, who had now moved from Hiei's ring to Yusuke's. He then turned to face a TV screen which, suprisingly, had Hiei's face on it! "Ladies and Gentlemen, we have had some astounding victories here at the Madison Square open air dojo today," said this random guy into the camera. "A favorite to win the sword fighting contest is Hiei, a newcomer who already advanced to the semi finals, knocking out the current champion in one hit! A other favorite to win for the fistfighting contet," The guy continued," Is none other than our returning champions, Yusuke Urameshi and Kuwabara Kazuma. They dominated the ring last week, and are here to do the same."

By the end of the day, Hiei had won the first prize in sword fighting, which was 500 dollars and a month long membership to the dojo. Hiei smiled. This would go into his car fund. But it wouldn't hurt to pick a few pockets. He spied another lady, tackily dressed, cheering on some 8 year old in the children's division. "I know you can do it, Bobby precious!" She cooed. This woman had to die immediately. Or, be left hanging on the street lamp for several hours again.

"But what about my Bobby!" The lady cried. "Oh, stuff it, useless ningen," he said, reaching for her purse. He grinned at his contents. He took 150 dollars, leaving only a twenty, and left her hanging before he turned back into his normal form. He could buy a heck of a lot of cappuccinos with this.

Back at the dojo, Yusuke and Kuwabaka were fighting it out in the finals. But it was no contest. Yusuke beat Kuwabaka to a bloody pulp as usual, and won the grand prize of 500 dollars. Kuwabaka had to be content with only 100. Yusuke grinned, and hopped of the stage like he didn't have a care in the world. He headed for home. He was starving.

***at Home***

Kurama had just gotten back from work, earning a big fat wad of bills that he would use to pay for stuff. He decided to keep the magical fridge, though. He started to slice up some carrots and onions for soup, until a sudden news broadcast stopped his chopping of vegetables.

"Just after seven o clock today, Mrs. Isabella Johnston was seen hanging from a street lamp," The news anchor Melody said into the camera. The camera zoomed in onto a picture of a middle- aged woman hanging upside down from a street lamp while a young, about 8 year old boy shouted, "Mommy! Mommy! Come down! I'm hungry!" "Bobby precious, I'll come down!" And then the woman tried to untie the string that bound her to the street lamp. Big Mistake. The woman fell onto the boy, and you could hear him cry,"Mommy! I can't feel my arm! The um... left one!" he yelled from under his heap of a mother. "The attacker is supposedly the same as the last one," Melody said. "A green tint to his skin and many eyes. That's all for now." And then the news faded out to a mother's day infomercial that Kurama was watching. He wanted an idea for something for his kasaan. He knew in an instant that it was Hiei. He also knew in an instant that Hiei was sitting on the windowsill behind him. "Hiei, that was a horrible thing to do," He scolded. "Well, they deseved it. " He said. "I needed money. " "For what?" Kurama asked. "For.....a.....car." He finished. "A car?" Kurama said, laughing lightly in that way of his. Hiei started to feel annoyed. He then went up to his room to count his money and sulk.

Then, Yusuke came thundering through the door. "I came in first!" He said. "Great new, but.....where's Kuwabara?" "I'm right here guys, you don't have to worry." Then Kuwabaka fell over on the porch. "Good Heavens, Yusuke, you didn't have to practically maul Kuwabara," Kurama said while helping Yusuke drag Kuwabaka into the house. It was nighty night time, and things were going normally for the tantei. Much too normally. The authoress thought to herself. "Hm..." She said. "How can I add a little fun in their lives?"
