Exchange Program 3: Graduation
Chapter Four
"Well, that was a complete bust," Gaara said. "No diplomas and no kidnappers! Was there a point to that?"
"We had no way of knowing for sure," Student X said calmly. "For all we know, whoever is behind this could be out of the country by now."
"I think it's time," Student Y intoned. "I hoped it would never come to this, but we're going to have to go THERE."
"You mean-?!" Z's eyes widened in shock. Y nodded.
"I'm not sure what's going on," Tenten said.
"We're going to have to visit Student B's family," Y explained. "This is something I really did not want to have to do. I will never forgive them."
"Why? What did they do?" Sasuke asked. Itachi whacked him upside the head.
"Watch it. If Student Y wants to tell us why she doesn't want to forgive them, she'll tell us! Now shut up and stop being an insensitive bastard!" he said.
"Thank you, Itachi," Student Y said. "Everyone just come on. It will all become clear later. We just need to get there."

"Wow! What a big house!" Tobi exclaimed. "I look forward to living in a house like this with my beloved Deidara-sempai!"
"You can live in this big-ass house by yourself!" Deidara shouted.
"I didn't know Student B was this rich," Kakuzu noted. "I wonder just how rich they are…"
"Everyone behave yourselves," Student X instructed. "Employees G and 12345 are not the most accommodating people ever."
"Employees G and 12345?" Ino asked.
"Student B's parents," came the reply. Y rang the bell, and the door opened. A harsh-faced woman appeared at the door.
"Y," she stated coldly.
"Employee 12345," Y responded, equally coldly.
"Well, come in, if you must," Employee 12345 said. "What do you need."
"I want to know… did B leave any records of her plans?" Student Y asked bluntly. Student B's mother looked disgusted.
"You horrible bitch! You bring your freaky friends to our house only so you can keep up this crap about my late daughter being an evil mastermind! It's because of you that she's dead!"
"Now hold up here," Tobi interrupted. "Student Y never did any of that! Student B died because she was a stupid double-crossing liar and her time had come! Student B lied flat-out to my face and tried to give Deidara-sempai away like a stuffed animal at a fair!"
"Yeah, and you were the one who tried to "win" me," Deidara muttered.
"She treated her subordinates like trash!" Tobi added, his voice becoming more strident with every passing second. "It didn't matter whether you were on her side or not, if you got in her way, she'd dispose of you in cold blood! Itachi-san is positively cuddly compared to her!"
"Just for the record, I'm NOT cuddly," Itachi added. Employee 12345 just looked at him.
"And who might you be?" she asked, icicles practically dripping from her words. Tobi just stared at her.
"My name is Tobi."
