Lol, Underseen. Granted the little egotist (frankly, his ego is so big, it's amazing and remarkable that he can stand upright) might try to sue me if he ever reads this.

CHAPTER EIGHT:
Ol' Lucky

It was not long when these deaths were determined as strange enough to be outside the normal police jurisdiction. The government deemed it to be within RAFian jurisdiction, and so called them in on the case.

***

Shock, RYTX, and Chad30 were dispatched to deal with the womanizer's death. They arrived in the suburban house where the murder happen, and saw the . . . uh, the wall's new, um, "paint". But none of the three reacted to this outwardly, they remained professional. The examined the rainbow.

"Must have been that leprechaun that had that crush on Sakki." Chad30 determined.

"Excuse me, what?" Shock said.

***

Phoenix, Sakki, and Empress Goose were dispatched to investigate the politician's death. They arrive at his penthouse office, and examined the scene thoughly, noticing the rainbow -- it was kind of hard to miss.

Sakki shuttered, feeling dirty. "It was that dirty little leprechaun lecher. Has to be."

"What?" Phoenix said  thoroughly nonplussed.

"Oh," Empress Goose began before Sakki threateningly interceded with, "Don't you DARE, Goose."

***

Underseen, Noelle, and Blue investigated the death of the greedy man -- a notorious loan shark with an outrageous sixties hairdo. They saw the rainbow indicating were the body was.

"D'you think he was killed due to crimes of fashion?" Blue asked.

<This coming from the guy in the ninja get-up.> Noelle said drily.

"What could of done this and leave a -- a rainbow?" Underseen said, hesitantly. There really wasn't a manly way to put that.

That stumped them as they were unaware of Sakki's little encounter and Cloak and Aquilai's observations.

***

The other investigations were pretty much the same. Aquilai, Saffa, and Gaz investigated the death of the lazy man's death -- a man who lived off of the system and fraud. Dino, SuperNate, and Yarin investigated the prideful man's death -- who was a real-world representation of Marvolo Gaunt. Kelly, AniDragon and Damien investigated the envious man's death -- a very insecure, very jealous man.

***

Cloak, Abby, and Parker began to investigate the death of the angry, angry man -- one who had a hair trigger temper.

But then Cloak's ears picked up something. Something that he could not openly dismiss without being incredibly foolish.

Abby seemed to recognize this reaction. "What is it?"

"Something," Cloak said, listening intently, "something outside."

The three went to investigate this and found the leprechaun in question. Going through a dumpster.

"Stop right there!" Parker called, using a clipped, police-like tone.

The leprechaun looked up, and fled. The RAFians attempted to stop him, but he "lucked" away Cloak and Parker's attacks, only Abby's seemed to have any affect. But, he still got away.

Back from work, and sleepy. But I'm gonna try to post the next chapter -- if there's any mistakes, you'll know why. Forgive me, if its a bit brief.

CHAPTER NINE:
Unlucky Indigestion

"Oh . . ." Avers Ice moaned.

Ingesting the gold coins in his greed-addled paranoia was proving to be a rather detrimental. His stomach was not responding well to becoming a makeshift coin purse -- then again, would you?

"It's worth it -- hic!" he muttered to himself, punctuating it with a hiccup. The gold fever's grip, if anything, had strengthed over this time, as if the act of swallowing the coins seemed to have exacerbated the disease. Avers Ice had lost all good sense and his sensibilities were terribly skewed now -- he couldn't help but see anyone who breathed, whose heart still beat, as a potential thief (not even considering that no one would want them when the coins decided to make their . . . uh, their reappearance. Nor was anyone aware where his coins were.

Well . . . there was one who knew.

"Where's me gold?"

"Get away!"

"Gimme me gold!"

"Go away!"

"You have me gold!"

"It's not yours!"

"Gimme me gold!"

"By the laws of Celtic magic, its no longer yours!" Avers tried fudging. In reality, there was no such rule of magic, Celtic or otherwise. "They're mine! Mine! Mine! Mine!"

Now Avers Ice just looked psychotic. The leprechaun looked furious, but just as psychotic.

"GIMME ME GOLD!!!" shouted the leprechaun leaping upon Avers Ice with surprising speed and agility for one of his stature. The leprechaun began to throttle the gold feverish young man.

"You'll never steal them, thief!" Avers declared, daring to be stupid. "They are where you can't get them!"

But the leprechaun understood the meaning behind this. With an evil, malevolent smile, he pulled out a dagger . . .

***

"That's gruesome," Underseen commented. "Poor Avers."

"Tsk tsk tsk," Cloak shook his head. "He had gold fever -- look at the flecks of gold there . . . and there . . . there."

"So the leprechaun got his gold back -- disembowling Avers Ice in the process." Parker said pensively. "There's nothing more we could do for him now."

"So this leprechaun will disappear into obscurity again?"

"Doubtful," Cloak said.

"Then what could be after?"

"Offhand?" Parker shrugged. "Bride?"

Yeah, it's gonna be a weird book. The next book won't be any less weird. Or the one after that. It gets more serious in #44.

Anyway, maybe brief.

*notices Saffa's post, and stifles a laugh.*

CHAPTER TEN:
The Bloodthirsty Bachelor and the Bloody Brides

Turns out that Parker's offhanded guess was right. The lecherous leprechaun went on a bride finding spree . . .

"Nose too long."

He killed and disembered her. The usual rainbow showed up, but the leprechaun appeared to be oblivious to it.

"Too fat."

He killed her in a way too vile to be described tastefully, for the crime of being a half-pound overweight. The leprechaun demanded absolute and abject perfection in his bride. Anything less, in his horrbly distorted view, was not worth leaving alive.

"Too thin."

So the leprechaun disemboweled her, with no other excuse other than she was too thin to be his bride.

"Too short!"

He bisect this woman as if being prepped for dissection. The cruel irony was that this woman was still taller than himself.

"Too tall!"

He chopped off this poor woman's legs, and let her bleed out. The leprechaun never questioned whether these women would even want to be his bride, but his chauvinist ideals led him to see women as objects, things to be owned. It was despicable. It was detestable. It was a sign of his age and ego.

Then he discovered Helen in her street clothes. She was on the inactive roster, essentially having a "day off". She was just doing a little window shopping, and planning to meet up with Abby, Saffa, Gaz, and Sakki a little later on. She had her raven hair tied up behind her, and looked generally chipper and vivacious.

The leprechaun examined at her from a distance. Not too tall, not too short, not too thin, not too fat for this dumpty little leprechaun. Her nose wasn't too long or short for him, and she wasn't too old or too young for him. Her hair was at what the leprechaun considered an appropriate length. The leprechaun thought that her eyes were the precise distance away from each other as the should be.

The lecherous leprechaun thought Helen was the epitome of perfection.
