After so many years as the happy-go-lucky member of Akatsuki and thus being constantly beaten up by Deidara, Tobi decided to pursue a different career path, one that appreciated him for his dedication. Being an Akatsuki member was also rather boring since he never got to do anything - Deidei was much too bossy, almost like a sister, and he wouldn't let Tobi capture or kill anyone! Tobi knew that people like him, people with true, raw talent, could get into any profession. But what could he do? What job would be worthy of him?
As he sat on the dilapidated couch in the Akatsuki media room, Tobi pondered that question. He hadn't really gotten out lately due to Pain's "security" issues, so he did not know that much about current affairs. He looked around the room for inspiration, but all he saw were the old fooseball table that Itachi's purple My Little Pony (life sized) glaring at him from across the room. Every time he saw that darn thing, Tobi wanted to go hug it. But then he remembered what happened the last time he did that… Itachi wasn't being a good boy.
Tobi's eyes wandered to the TV. Usually, his eyes were glazed over, not really paying attention to what was on, unless it was Ugly Betty of course, but he noticed something this time. A commercial was coming on, and Tobi glued his eyes to the screen:
"DO YOU WANT TO BE FAMOUS? ARE YOU BORED OF THAT BORING LIFE YOU LEAD? Then why don't you come and be part of the SHINOBI STARZ TALENT SEARCH! This Saturday and Sunday, only, at the Abandoned Shack Center, from seven in the morning to ten at night! This is your chance to do something with your life!"
Tobi's eyes popped. This was exactly what he was looking for! He rummaged around the room for a paper and pen to write down the information. The ASC wasn't far from where he was! He could make it. As long as none of the other Akatsuki caught him in the act… When Tobi heard the door knob turn, he immediately pressed the power button on the remote and lay down on the couch, acting as natural as possible. Hidan walked into the room.
"Uh, Tobi, why the hell are you laying on the couch naked?!"
To be continued!
