(Authors note: Oh my lord, CHAPTA EIGHT! I am so happy! My random gift of the chapter is…..A MOOSE! *A moose walks in, wearing a pink hat* I HOPE YOU LIKE YOUR MOOSE!

Konan: In case you have not noticed, our mail-delivery person here is on sugar. Lots of it.

Zetsu: Can I eat her? Will she taste like sugar if I eat her? I WANT TO EAT HER!

Me: O.o ….NO YOU CANT EAT ME! *runs away, carrying a bunch of letters*)

Letters to the Akatsuki

Dear Lalamnmgirl,

Thank you for appreciating how hard I work to keep this place in working order. The bet I made with the fool Hidan was extremely annoying to lose. He has not let me forget it. My only regret about it is the loss of valuable money...

But you have no need to worry. I have already won it back with other bets- like I always do.

And to answer your question... Hidan is a loud-mouthed idiot who tends to lose us money. In my opinion, that's grounds enough to be kicked out of the Akatsuki- I have spoken to Leader about this, so far with no avail.

Deidara is worse. He blows so many things up, and most of them cost money! MONEY! The things he has broken/blown up in the past week include: A glass vase, Tobi's doorframe, Tobi's door, the coffee table, a large section of the wall in the hallway, and three chairs. So... that's a deficit of 180 dollars. And he'd better pay up...or else.

None of these members seem to understand how hard it is to handle all the bills. They think it's just a walk in the godamn park.

It's nice to see someone who appreciates true talent.

-Kakuzu, the Banker of the Akatsuki

Kakuzu sent the letter, then moved from his chair to his bed. In his mind, he began to calculate the overall costs of the Akatsuki's needs this week.

He first looked at the furniture receipt. They had gotten a discount this time. Since they visited so often to the store to get new furniture (mainly thanks to Deidara and his explosives), the owner had taken a liking to them, and therefore lessened the price some.

Kakuzu moved through the other receipts. Everything was going well- they had gotten the lowest possible price on nearly everything they had purchased, the numbers were clean and neat, and no unnecessary things had been bought.

But then he saw the grocery receipt. He growled lowly, his anger level rising. Right there, at the end of the receipt, hiding after all the necessary and low-cost items, was the most un-useful and money-wasting thing possible.

Right there, was a two-dollar...chocolate bar.

"TOBI!" he roared, jumping off his bed and stalking to the living room.

"How dare you waste our precious money on something as useless and pricey as a fucking CANDY BAR?!"

Tobi, who had been on the couch and just finishing the candy bar in question, jumped up, screaming. He turned and ran, going as fast as he could down the hall and outside.

Kakuzu was after him in an instant, intent on making Tobi sorry for the horrible thing he had done.

This just goes to show... Don't buy candy with the Akatsuki's grocery funds. Because Kakuzu will come after you.
