Cartoon Cops Dating Service

3:05 pm at an extremely uneventful Malt Shop:

Kurama and Raven look at each other seriously while Hiei is overindulging himself in the mountain of a fancy ice cream soda.

Raven: I would have expected the suspect to have shown up by now. Do you still have the stuff on him?

Kurama: Naturally *slides envelope across table*

Raven: *reading* Name-Ditz; Cartoon-Starred in an episode of Chip ‘n’ Dale Rescue Rangers; Problem-Information file deleted for unknown reasons, lead to believe may be for sinister reasons; Goal-Must recover lost information and locate Ditz before the episode makes it’s way to DVD…this message will self destruct? *shrugs off the last line and throws it over her shoulder*

*The crumpled note lands on a root beer float and sinks to the bottom. The float is delivered to an older bald man that happens to be the Chief of Police from the cartoon Inspector Gadget.*

Chief: Aw, how nice it is to have a day off…No missions, No Gadget, and NO exploding self destruct notes!

Kurama: Perhaps it would be better to find him after questioning his co-stars. I expect they would remember his profile information and may provide a clue to where he had gone too.

Raven: *looking at the picture* We’re looking for an orange blob, that shouldn’t be too hard to find. *hands picture to Kurama*

Kurama: Hm, he might be able to blend in with a few creatures from Demon World, Hiei, didn’t you say there was something interesting going on there?

Hiei: *drunk off of ice cream and love serum* Hic! Huh? …possibly…

Kurama: *handing over photo* There wouldn’t by chance be a fellow involved that looked like this would there?

Hiei: *HIC* Uh? Hey… That there is… *HIC*…a pretty good picture *arm waves trying to point to it, but bends in manners that are not humanly nor Hiei-ly possible* it really captures my good side!

*Kurama and Raven eye Hiei alertly as Hiei starts to turn orange. Raven stands and uses her power over the fancy ice cream soda to move it away from him. The orange Hiei melts into a blob on the floor, his form now resembling the picture of Ditz. Now that there is an opening at the booth, Kurama also rises. Ditz pulls out 80’s children cartoon ray guns and points them at Kurama and Raven while slinking away.*

Ditz: You’ll never catch me alive coppers!

Raven: That line is so cliché.

OUTSIDE
Sally Sue: Oh no! The suspect wasn’t supposed to actually show up! I made this whole case up! First they go to the Malt Shop and no one shows, then there was to be a “Hot Tip” that he would be at the theatre in a room showing a romantic movie, then going swimming at the beach, then a restaurant and then… *breaks down* WHAH HA HA!!! TOT

BACK INSIDE
Kurama: We don’t want to hurt you; we just need to return you to your cartoon for a debut.

Ditz: And what if I don’t want to go back?

*He slinks away towards the entrance, but Raven entraps the 80’s children cartoon ray guns in black energy and have them fly away from Ditz towards her.*

Raven: Children shouldn’t play with guns.

Kurama: Well said…

*Kurama smiles with eyes closed and arms crossed, one hand being up by his shoulder. Opening his eyes, he pulls out his Rose Whip and slashes a low blow towards Ditz. It hits him head on, slicing the alien in two…but being of his composition, the two halves merge back together into one. Ditz grins at the duo as evilly as an 80’s cartoon villain can grin.*

Raven: Well that is useful to know, he is made up of a substance that can regenerate itself.

Dizt: They are highly unstable molecules to be exact. Just because you left me unarmed doesn’t render me harmless! I can blow myself up, destroying a whole planet, and still comeback together in one piece. How about I give you a small demonstration?

*Dizt starts to puff up. To counter, Raven levitates as her eyes turn black as she chants. A black sphere envelopes Ditz as he explodes, containing the explosion as well as the sound of one. Raven and Kurama smile in relief as Ditz reassembles in the black bubble. Shortly thereafter, Kurama turns his head, aware of another danger.*

Chief: Hmmm…*poke*poke* This isn’t ice cream in the bottom of my float!

Kurama: Raven get down!

Raven: Huh?

*Kurama glomps Raven to the ground to shield her from the explosion of the Self Destruct Message that was thrown into the root beer float which interacting with the carbonated beverage delayed its reaction of self destructing. Suddenly (well, not so suddenly if you have a heightened sense of smell like Kurama that can detect an increase of explosion powder evaporating into the air carried up by carbonated bubbles…but for everyone else it was rather sudden) the Malt Shop explodes with the Chief flying high in the air looking rather blackened and charred.*

Chief: GADGET!!!

*Down below, the smoke clears and Raven lets down the barrier that she surrounded her and Kurama with. They look at each other and suddenly sit up and turn away from each other blushing. Recovering from embarrassment of the situation they stand and dust themselves off as they look around at the barren vicinity. There is no trace of hide nor molecule of Ditz.*

Kurama: The suspect appears to have given us the slip.

Sally Sue: *sitting up in the former bushes with black face smears and a twig sticking out of her hair* Well all in all, I suppose that turned out really well. (referring to Raven and Kurama’s actions during the explosion to protect one another despite the collateral damage)

Raven: HEY!

Sally Sue: *cringes* >.<

*Raven and Kurama walk over to her.*

Raven: And just what are you doing here?

Is Sally Sue’s jig up? Have the Kurama and Raven team had it? Does anyone know why the pretend case turned real? And what about (the actual) Hiei?
Sally Sue: I haven’t even begun to jig! HAHAHA *suddenly smashed by a not-so-leafy falling tree* XD haaaa....
