Author: Hey there all. I'm trying to write as many chapters as humanly possible before school starts! Which is tomorrow, the 1st of September for me. So I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I enjoyed speed writing them. -;;

Chapter 7: The Chase Continues

-By Zenigata's room-

Lupin and his group were just checking out of the hotel. But first they made a pit stop at Zenigata's room. Again, Lupin left a note, only this time signing it to both Zenigata and Companion. Tsurugi noticed it being slipped under the door, but didn't say anything. Lupin was going to need all the help he could get to get out of here. So she instead continued to talk about world happenings to Zenigata.

About an hour later Zenigata went to go and get some ice. As he stepped out the door he felt something crunch under his foot. He picked up the piece of paper and read it aloud angrily.

Hey Zenigata and Companion,

Forget that we were here?

Surprised you didn't have the police on us.

We're off to the Yankee's stadium.

Gonna have a ball out there!

Lupin III.

"Dammit Lupin!" Zenigata yelled as he began to feverishly pack. Tsurugi had left the room since he had noticed the note, though she could hear him reading it. She had made a phone call to Lupin and then the New York police station.

"Zenigata, I called the police. They'll be there shortly." She spoke tenderly to him, not wanting him to die on the spot from stress and anger.

"Yeah, right..." He said calming down. "You know, you're amazing."

"I try." Tsurugi laughed as she helped him finish packing. "Shall we go and meet our dear friend Lupin now hun?" Zenigata just nodded as they left the room.

-After checking out-

Tsurugi had talked Zenigata into take her motorcycle instead of his car, so she was driving. They were speeding down the crowded roads, going down alleys, and even in-between cars.

"Tsurugi! SLOW DOWN!" Zenigata pleaded. She however in response, sped up and did even crazier things. Shortly after his last tantrum, they arrived at the stadium. Sounds of large machinery could be heard digging.

"They're digging up the diamond!" Tsurugi said, sounding and acting surprised. She knew what was underneath the diamond, but wasn't going to show that. She had to keep her cool when she actually saw the real diamonds Lupin was digging up. Because she was going to get a cut of them. She also looked around for the police. They where no where. 'Go figure.' She thought. Zenigata had just gotten his sets of handcuffs ready.

"Come on Tsurugi." He ordered. She nodded and followed obediently. Once they had gotten into the field, most of the diamonds had been dug up. "Lupin! You're under arrest!"

"Not today Pops!" He yelled over the chopping of a helicopter.

"Crap!" Zenigata yelled as he tried to get over the mounds of dirt tossed everywhere.

Tsurugi stayed put however. She had a card up her sleeve, time just needed to play out. Knowing Lupin like she did, he'd let Goemon then Fujiko up first. She could also tell that Goemon and Fujiko had her cut of the diamonds. So as soon as the got safely up the ladder, she fired a single shot. Lupin, his diamonds, and the ladder fell to the ground. Once he realized it was Tsurugi who shot he laughed his oh so weasly laugh and ran off.

"Crap, crap, CRAP! He got away again!"

Tsurugi just shook her head. "You know, we could catch up to him." She sounded almost bored, but Zenigata was too happy to notice.

"You're RIGHT!" He then grabbed her by the wrist and led her to her motorcycle. "Let's go!" By then they where already on the bike and speeding in Lupin's direction, hoping to spot him soon.

Author: Sorry that was a tad short. School just started so I'm going to be much busier. I'll try to update at least once a week if not more than once. But don't expect my usual outbursts of like 3 chapters at a time. I just don't have that amount of time anymore.
