For money

With a weapon like the **** Note, you could beat the officials at their own game. All you have to do is write a person's name in the **** Note and have the details change so that their money goes to you. It'll be tricky, but you think you can do it, as long as the cause of **** continues to change each time. Once the money is yours, you'll be the one calling the shots and getting the sweet deals. Plus, you can get all the best girls, as long as you're smart about it.

On the ride home, you think how you should go about making your fortune, 'Start small, test how I to do this with common people first and work my way up to people like Bill Gates. The more money I have, the easier it will be to get to those people.' This will work, you need to figure out the details, but it will work once those fall into place. You feel certain of yourself and your ability to get away with it.

When you reach your home, your confidence gets the best of you and you lean over and kiss Amanda suddenly. You hear her gasp into the kiss before accepting it. After several minutes of this, you break the kiss and head into your house without a word. You considered cutting her in, but the less people, the more money and power for you. You drop your bag and run up to your room, locking the door, and fire up your computer.

With a little help from google, you eventually learn that the richest person in your city is indeed your old math teacher, Ms. Thorton. She was old, absent minded, and generally not liked because she was absent minded, but everybody had to like her to her face, she owned more than half of the city. Killing her would be very easy, you never had a real fight with her, and since you didn't slack off in her class, she liked you enough. In fact, just last month, you were walking in the hall and she gave you one of her son's copies of a manga you enjoy. You quickly figure out it will be very easy to get all of her family's money, as long as you kill her last.

As you continue searching her family tree and learning who is alive, you hear a voice call out, "Keh keh keh keh keh, I've never seen someone put so much thought into using a **** Note this early." You look around the room, and find...something in your room. It was about 6'7" and it's body was all black, except for it's belt and bracelets. What really attracted attention to this thing was its face. Its body was black as night, but its face was almost white, and it's lips were blue. Its nose was barely there, and it's piercing yellow eyes were punctuated by red pupils. All this and the fact that it knew about the **** Note meant only one thing.

"So, shinigami, do you have a name?" you ask it boldly. "Unlike you, I don't have shinigami eyes to learn your name."

It responds, "Keh keh keh, seems somebody did their reading. My name is Ryuk, and was that a signal that you want to make the deal?"

"No," you tell it. "I'm not prepared to shorten my life for something so trivial."

"Trivial?" Ryuk snaps. "The eyes make the **** Note much easier to use."

"But my marks are famous and their details are easy to find, the eyes really aren't needed yet. All they would do now is shorten my life," you tell it.

"Oh," Ryuk says excited, "so you decided on what to use the **** Note for already?"

You tell Ryuk, "Yeah, it's going to make me rich and powerful in a legal way."

Ryuk bursts out laughing, "Keh keh keh keh keh. The **** Note, the ultimate tool of ****, a crime in your society, is going to be used in a legal way. It's just so funny."

As Ryuk continues to laugh, the family tree search completes itself.
