Target 007: Expel Crisis
Tsuru felt horrified.
She was sitting at her desk near the window, her head on the table with her arms across it. 'I am so screwed!' Was all she could think about as the science teacher, Nezu-sensei, was handing back the test papers. To anyone else it would look like she was worried about her test, but in reality she didn't care. She flunked that test on purpose.
"Sawada." Nezu called out, Tsuru immediately stood up, almost falling over because of one of her clumsy streaks. Nezu looked down at her and chucked sinisterly. "This is just hypothetically speaking, but let's just say there's a sole student that scores in the twenty percent range and painfully lowers the class average."
Just to make her acting dramatic, Tsuru shrieked softly, "According to me, who's come from an elite course. That person will just be baggage and a burden on the education-conscious of society." Nezu continued, Tsuru internally rolled her eyes. "Is there a reason for that kind of trash to exist?"
Nezu showed the test in his hand, it had a red marking stating 'twenty-six' on top of it. Other students started gossiping about how bad Tsuru's test was. 'What a jerk, I searched up on him, he barely passed his course at some unknown university.' The brunette though to herself, making her way back to her desk.
The classroom's back door was slammed open as Gokudera came in with his hands in his pockets and his face shadowed. Everyone turned to look at him while Nezu started scolding him. "Hey! You're late! What do you think you're doing, coming in at this time?!"
Gokudera just glared at Nezu, who in turn, backed away. Gokudera just continued on, walking over in Tsuru's direction. "Good Morning Juudaime!" The Mafia-in-training looked at him, supressing a groan, she looked at the source of her discomfort.
And once again, the gossiping started. "This is just hypothetically speaking," Nezu started once more, "but let's say there's a student that always comes late, without question her hangs out with loser trash." Gokudera stopped moving at this point, "Because people like that gravitate towards each other."
Gokudera turned around and started walking in Nezu's direction, "Old Man…" He muttered, lifting the annoying teacher by the collar, "I won't accept any insults to the Tenth Generation Head, Sawada-san!"
Nezu seemed to be choking, his face turning blue. Gokudera, just smiled saying, "Do I drop this guy?" Tsuru felt that her life just got harder.
"YOU GUYS ARE EXPELLED-" Nezu shouted in a rage, his arms bound up in casts, "Calm down, Nezu." The prinical spoke, waving his hands in a motion to calm down.
"How can I calm down?! I was assaulted physically!" Tsuru couldn't believe a word he said, no one wound break their arms just because they were dropped, a ruler's length to the ground. "Sawada and Gokudera should be expelled with joint responsibility!?"
'That's a huge punishment, you're acting like, in Kyoya's words, a Herbivore!.' The brunette thought, trying to restrain the urge to kill him.
"But to expel them would be too hasty, so giving them a suspension would be fine." The Prinicpal came to the Mafiosi's defence, before Nezu interrupted once more, "Principal, if I recall, there was a fifteen year old time capsule buried in the playground and couldn't be found and you were going to ask professionals to dig it up." Nezu grinned.
"Ah… Yeah, what about it?" The principal answered shakily, wiping the sweat off his brow. "Let's have these guys do it. If they can dig up the time capsule by today then this issue will be forgiven… but if they can't…" He crossed his hands over his chest, his casts seemingly disappeared, "EXPELLED IMMEDIATELY!"
"That's outrageous!" Tsuru blurted out loudly, and was quickly dismissed by the principal. She was walking down the hallways thinking about the ridiculous deal. 'I don't wanna be expelled!' She thought to herself.
"If you don't want to be expelled that badly, then why don't you do anything about it?" A deep Italian accent cut through Tsuru's thoughts, she looked behind her expecting to see Reborn but was met with an empty corridor. "Over here, over here."
She looked to the direction of the voice, this time coming out of the fire engine, a small hatch opened up showing a miniature baby version of Reborn. "You're so tiny!" Tsuru exclaimed, surprised not expecting that to happen.
The miniature Reborn jumped up onto her shoulder and the whole wall, including the fire engine swung open, showing the adult version of Reborn. "That is the form memorising chameleon, Leon. He was on my hat the entire time." Reborn spoke, Tsuru's face gaining the faintest tint of red. The chameleon, Leon, transformed back into his original form, a green reptile with orange eyes.
Reborn stepped aside to reveal Gokudera and a small room with a classy furniture set. "You were in there as well?!" Tsuru asked, not expecting him to come out of the 'room.'
"Reborn was teaching me the basics of killing. More importantly," Gokudera kneeled on the floor in front of Tsuru, banging his head downward, he shouted, "I'm very sorry! Things turned out like this without me even knowing you didn't want to be expelled that badly!"
The silver haired teen stood up, "Since things are like this, let's dig up the time capsule at any cost! I have a good idea in mind, don't worry." Gokudera took something out from behind him, "If we blow up the ground like this it'll be fast! Here's your share!" The items in his hands turned out to be dynamites and he was giving them to Tsuru, who obviously didn't want them but they were forced into her hands.
"No! Dynamite isn't good!" Tsuru cried, Gokudera didn't process what she said and replied, "We'll I'll see you there!" Gokudera waved at his future boss, running down the corridor and disappearing form sight.
"No! Don't make this worse! I don't need them Gokudera-kun!" Tsuru ran after him, not bothering ti actually catch up, so she just walked, passing by multiple classrooms and offices, all of them boring as ever until she walked passed Nezu's.
"Man you are messed up Nezu! Telling them to dig up a capsule that doesn't exist!" The sports teacher's voice rang out in the silence, with the reply of Nezu, "The principal is messed up! He forgot that fifteen years ago there was no time capsule buried.
'No wonder he was so happy!' Tsuru thought, coming to a realization, then continued to eavesdrop on the conversation, "Those bastards are expelled no matter what. Well if they managed to break the playground in half, I might rethink it."
Before Nezu could say anything else a loud explosion was heard all over Namimori. Tsuru looked out the window to see smoke rising from the playground, "He really did it!" She sighed.
"I don't eant to get expelled…" Tsuru complained to herself, turning around to face a familiar green gun, "And neither does Gokudera. So do it with your dying will." Reborn shot.
Once again Tsuru felt regret. She felt guilty that she couldn't help Gokudera with her Dying Will. "REBORN!" The same dark orange flame lit her head,"SPLIT THE PLAYGROUND WITH MY DYING WILL!"
With those words Tsuru jumped up and raced to her subordinate's location, unknowningly taking Leon, Reborn's pet, with her. "I was waiting, Juudaime!" Gokudera shouted to his boss, he was still blowing up the grounds with his Dynamite and wasn't stopping anytime soon.
"LOCATE THE GROUND'S WEAKNESS!" Tsuru grabbed Leon and held his two rear legs, in response, Leon transformed into two shiny metal dowsing machines, "DOWSING!" She then proceeded to detect any signs of metal in the ground.
"Leon can morph into anything he has seen before in his own size." Reborn commented, his eyes never straying from his charge. "IT'S HERE! FAULT DISCOVERED!" Tsuru let go of Leon, who transformed back into his animal form, and started to pull her fist back.
"BREAK HERE!" Tsuru punched the ground, conveniently exactly when Gokudera saw it fit to release his dynamite into the air. Together they made a mess of the playground that resembled a mini-earthquake.
"That's Gokudera and Sawada, right?!" Nezu shoted waving his fist in the air, "What're you doing on the playground?!" He dashed over to the Vongola pair and started screaming at them, "Looks like you'll be expelled immediately…"
Nezu stopped his sentence and stared at the tests in Gokudera's hands, each labled, 'Nezu Dohachiro.' The science teacher paled as he realised what was in front of him. "The fifteen year old capsule didn't show up, but a forty year old capsule came instead. Why are the tests of an elite-course guy like you in the time capsule of our ordinary middle school?" Gokudera accused as Tsuru, who had reverted back into her normal stated, rolled her eyes, "And these scores… What the hell!?" The test paper were labelled with the worst scores yet, two, zero and six.
Nezu's face turned into one of horror and many found out afterwards that he was fired for fraudulent education background, as he was truthfully an F ranked university graduate.
"I'm glad we didn't get expelled!" Tsuru exclaimed, Gokudera instantly answering her, "Oh, come on Juudaime. You were seriously worried?" His face turned serious. "I'd trade my life to prevent anything like that from happening!"
Tsuru felt touched that he thought that way but before she could reply, a deep voice cut in, "Isn't it great to have made such a reliable subordinate?" Tsuru looked next to her and was met with her fiancée's face. "What? Reborn!"
"Why can't we just be friends!?" Tsuru complained, "I don't want a subordinate!" She would of continued to protest but was interrupted (again), "Oh yeah..."
Gokudera turned around, "The tests in this school are a clinch, huh?" He showed her a marked test with a score of one hundred in the top corner. "Woah! Looks are so deceiving!" Tsuru decided, as she looked like an idiot and Gokudera looked like a delinquent, but both could ace the test given out. Well, when she tried.
University: A collection of colleges

Fraudulent education background: Basically lying about your past education
This chapter wasn't as long as some of the other ones. I like how this is going so far. I'm getting the urge to write a 18Fem27 fanfic right now but I need to finish this one first, or at least nearly finish. v
If you see any spelling errors please tell me!
BTW, I write everything in Australian English so if you thing I spelt 'coloured' wrong, well, you are so wrong.
