Exchange Program 3: Graduation

Chapter Eleven

"Rrrrgh…" Employee 12345 growled. "Of course you would have to show up and foil my plans! You idiots just never know when to lay off, do you?"

"Hell no," Student X replied. "I kinda want to take advantage of my scholarship."

"Hmm… I killed an entire clan once…" Itachi mused. "Maybe I should annihilate this little 'clan' too."

"DON'T HURT THE DROPOUTS!" a voice screeched from behind them. Student 2400 was struggling against her restraints.

"Uh… they kind of kidnapped you…" Tenten said.

"I know! But they tried to protect me from Employee 12345!" she replied. "Don't hurt them, please! They saved my life, now I attempt to save theirs!"

"Fine," Kakuzu said. "But they'd better pay up for this!"

Behind the crowd, Tobi was talking frantically into his cell phone. "Yeah, is this L8? It's Tobi. We need backup. Do you think you and a small group could be at the Bix Box Warehouse in a few minutes?"

"Sure," Student L8 said. "But backup for what?"

"We have a little problem… Student B's mother is completely whack."

"OK." and with that, Tobi snapped his phone shut. In a few minutes, backup would arrive and then this stupid plot would be history. Or so he hoped.

"I just don't get it," Employee 12345 said. "I just don't understand why my daughter's legacy cannot be finished! She died too young, and I blame you people for it!"

"You forget: it's personal with her," Deidara said. "Crazy bitch stabbed me and put me in a coma! And then she tried to use me as an incentive! I'm not hers to give-un!"

"Yeah, and she tried to kill me!" Student Z said.

"SHE LIED TO MY FACE!" Tobi yelled. "SHE TOOK ADVANTAGE OF MY PURE LOVE FOR DEIDARA-SEMPAI AND TRIED TO MAKE ME DO HER DIRTY WORK!" And with that, he blindly launched a kunai at the crazed employee, cutting off a chunk of hair.

"MY BEAUTIFUL HAIR!" she shrieked. "YOU RUINED IT! I JUST SPENT $600 GETTING IT BLEACHED!"

"I think it's an improvement," Deidara whispered sideways to Ino. "It was freakin' ugly, trying to pretend that she has our hair color."

"I know, really," Ino agreed.

"Dear, please calm down," Employee G tried to console his wife. "It could be worse. Maybe now you'll take my advice and get a sensible haircut!"

"Don't you start with me," Employee 12345 snarled in response. "You will not win. I'll stab you too if you keep it up!"

"Actually, I'm not sure if this is the right time to bring this up," G mumbled. "But I filed for divorce."

"YOU WHAT?!"

"Yeah… and I'm taking custody of D. She doesn't need to be in an environment with a crazy bitch like you. I don't want her turning into B. I don't need the shame of another daughter like that. Plus, Employee 83 from my work, well, we're planning to get married as soon as the divorce is final."

"WHOO! YOU GO G!" a group of dropouts cheered.

"You know what?" Hidan said. "I'll even perform the wedding ceremony!"

"I can't believe you, you bastard," Employee 12345 whispered. "I hate you."
