Bob was in a bit of crisis right now. His hotel business was slowly decreasing in satisfied customers and he was still living at the dump. He racked any intelligence in his brain for a solution to get back on top. He knew from past experiences that he sucked at pretty much any job he had, except being a rapper...but let's not discuss why that didn't work out.

He collapsed onto the ground and laid on his back with dejecting eyes. "MAYBE IF I JUST LAY HERE THE REST OF MY LIFE, I'LL DIE OF BOREDOM..." He then looked over as his grouchy neighbor, Oscar, was reading a newspaper. "BRO WHY ARE YOU READING THAT CRAP? NEWSPAPERS ARE FILLED WITH NOTHING BUT BORING JUNK!"  Oscar sneered and shot back "No it's not! The Mushroom Kingdom Times is the most popular article in the whole kingdom!" Bob scoffed and said "HOW CAN SOMETHING WITHOUT SEXY GIRLS GET SO MUCH ATTENTION?"

"Didn't you hear? There's a new auditor running it."

"WHAT!?"

Bob swiped the newspaper out of his hands and skimmed the page as sure enough, there was a brand new head of the paper. Oscar tried to get his paper back, but Bob held him back "Give it back you jerk!" Bob tapped his chin, ignoring Oscar's temper. He then noticed below there was a position for journalists to join the newspaper staff. "HMMMM..." Bob was hesitant at first like why should he care about some cruddy news? That was until it said that whoever got the job would be paid $100 an hour. Bob's eyes widened suddenly. "100 AN HOUR JUST TO WRITE SOME STUPID STORY!? HELL YEAH! SIGN ME UP!" Oscar kept reaching until Bob kicked him off into the sky. "BUT IF I'M GONNA DO THIS...I'LL NEED SOME HELP."

~Meanwhile in another part of the kingdom~

Boopkins was on his way to the castle when Boopkins side swooped him like a kidnapping. "YOU BORED BRO?" Boopkins, recovering from the force of his best friend coming out of nowhere, replied "Uh...yeah? I was just on the way to the castle to see what the crew was up to." Bob shoved the newspaper into his hands and said "WELL LOOK NO FURTHER! I'VE GOT THE ANSWER TO OUR PROBLEMS!"

"Mushroom Kingdom Times? Since when were you so interested in newspapers Bob?"

"SINCE I REALIZED ITS GONNA SAVE MY BUSINESS!"

Boopkins suddenly became interested as his pupils widened and he said "Ooooo tell me how!"

"I'M GONNA BECOME A JOURNALIST AND I NEED YOUR HELP TO DO IT!" Boopkins squealed in excitement as he rambled on "Ooo! Ooo! I got tons of ideas! We could do paper mache, birds nests, paper boat sailing-" Bob facepalmed and yelled out "NOT THAT TYPE OF HELP YOU GREEN IDIOT!"

"Awwww man..." Boopkins sighed of disappointment when Bob held up the paper again and pointed down to the section he was reading earlier. "THERE'S GOING TO BE A MEETING FOR ALL NEW STAFF AND YOU'RE GONNA ENLIST AS A NEWSPAPER WRITER WITH ME!"

"Really!? I love writing! I've written so many anime fanfics for Miku and-" Bob shushed him as he did not want to go into the horrors of Boopkins' so called fan fiction. "COME ON! WE'VE GOT WORK TO DO!" He dragged the fish down the road to a building in the city. Excited writers and civilians were chatting as Bob and Boopkins took their seats. "What a great idea Bob! We're going to be in the paper!"

Toadsworth soon came in and adressed the new legion of staff. "Welcome everyone! Thank you so much for taking your time to come apply for our employment here. Now I'm sure many of you heard that we have a new auditor this year and he will be in charge of picking the stories to making sure it gets to press on time-"

"NOBODY CARES! GET TO THE POINT!" Bob heckled from the crowd. Toadsworth cleared his throat and said "Right...AS I WAS SAYING we have a new auditor this year." The door opened and in stepped

"Jeeves!?"

"FORK GUY!?"

Jeeves straightened his tie and came up to the podium as Toadsworth told him "I'll leave you to discuss everyones assignments. Have fun!" Once he shut the door, Jeeves kicked the wall and down unfurled a poster of him that said "OBEY" in all capital letters. "Alright! Listen up! This newspaper is a joke!"  One guy in the back looked up from reading a copy straight off the press. "Well with me as your new auditor, I will deliver us to the highest stocks the kingdom has ever seen!"
