The disclaimer has changed. Times have changed. Itachi has changed. His mind has gone mad.

Itachi: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA! (he's laughing or no reason at all.) I'm going to kill everyone who reads this fanfiction! MUAHAHAH!

Kiba: don't worry, he'll get over it.

Itachi: (as if on cue) ok, sorry, what I mean is, I'll kill anyone who doesn't read this.

Me: NOOOOOO! Don't tell me, you're going to THREATEN them to read this? O.O oh and ignore him. You don't HAVE to read if you don't want to.

Itachi: but you should know I'll still kill ya.

Don't worry readers, he won't kill you… he's just a fictional character… there's a chance he'll haunt you in your dreams… sweet dreams tonight, no prob…

Kaitlyn's POV

Yes! I went to the door, when BANG! It hit me. Literally. Then Vrin and Carol plus Akamaru ran all over me. I knew I could count on myself to keep my mouth shut, since Vrin was thinking 'bout all the stuff she and Carol did to Itachi. we turned to go back when a voice said,

"WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING(UN)?"

"I thought you locked the door?" Vrin hissed at Carol.

"I did!"

That wasn't the problem. The problem is, Vrin and Carol would just be captured AGAIN, and then I just realised they wanted me too.

We all did the one thing on our minds. RUN! FLEE! WE SHALL MAKE IT BACK TO KONOHA IN TIME! (ok, there were different thoughts in everyone's head but this is the general version.)

"They leaving, Hn." Itachi said. "GO! AND NEVER COME BACK!"

"GO AWAY, UN! WE DON'T NEED YOU, YEAH! WE JUST DID THAT FOR NO APPARENT REASON!"

"I'M SORRY! PLEASE FORGIVE TOBI FOR NOT BEING A GOOD BOY!"

Itachi glared at the two of them. "I was just joking about the go and never come back statement."

"*GASPS* REALLY, UN? REALLY?" O.O

"YAY! TOBI IS A GOOD BOY AFTER ALL!"

I face-palmed myself. Why aren't they running yet (Itachi)? I transferred the thought to Vrin.

"HAH! We ain't going to run away!" Vrin replied to Itachi's mind.

"Plus, I'm going to fight you right here, right now."

I face=palmed myself… again. Why? Because Vrin is so dumb sometimes that she doesn't know who she's dealing with.

She then proceeded to throw shurikens at Itachi. he didn't move. So you can guess, it hit. Duh.

But that's not quite it.

You see, it was a genjutsu. Don't think Itachi was an idiot not to dodge it. Well, Vrin fell for it.

"He's going to appear behind you! It's like the movies, when your enemy disappears, they appear behind you!" Carol said, quivering.

"Nah, he's in the kitchen, not knowing what happened," I replied.

Then right at that time, Itachi went out of the house (kinda). And the kinda's for the house! Why am I ranting? Cause I feel like to (shutting up now.)? where was I? oh yeah! Itachi went out, said "hn" then went back in. in his mind? You two get them in and better get Kaitlyn as well. You are Akatsuki members. And who would have thought they'd come… too bad they can't read my mind. I'm planning something very evil here…

I almost, ALMOST snorted at the 'can't read my mind' part, till I remembered 'something very evil'. Sometimes it's irritating that something funny comes up and then something serious cancels it out. Or something like that. Oh, and all this while Tobi and Deidara were arguing about something I don't know about (I can read people's minds, not hear them talk when they're too far away. Of course you knew that. Why am I ranting too much in this chapter? Why? Sorry 'bout that.).

"Oh Vrin, by the way, all those stuff you did to Itachi and he was acting all angry and everything?" I asked Vrin. Or told is a better word, cause ask is not THAT er, that, specific…

"Yeah, what about it?" she replied.

"It was all just an act. Cause he'll never do that. he'll be like, 'hn' and that's it."

"HE SPEAKS UCHIHANESE?"

"That just means he's not in the mood to talk. If he speaks entirely of 'hn's to you, it means you irritate him… a lot."

"Oh."

Little by little, we tried sneaking out. Sorry, tried to flee. Do you honestly think I would forget about, oh I don't know, Kiba, Neji, Lee, and practically everyone?

Anyway, when we turned back, a tree exploded in front of us. Literally exploded. It exploded at the base so the tree went flying up in the air, then proceeded to fall. On Neji. Oh dear. Of course that poor boy got away in time. Byakugan, people, Byakugan. I wonder which is better, Byakugan or Sharingan? Then some green bump appeared right next to Vrin. Since she was bored and insane, and also being a ninja with an affinity to earth, thought it was a budding plant thingy (emphasize on 'thingy') decided to try to make it grow. It did grow; but in a way it turned out to be Zetsu. The guy really does look like a plant, now that I think about it…

"Why are you here, un? I was having fun blowing stuff up so they can't escape, yeah." I'm not gonna tell you who said it cause it's TOO obvious.

That's when all hell broke loose.

You see, Vrin then took the opportunity to attack Deidara while he was distracted. She really plans her attack carefully, and then… she tripped. Over her own foot. Deidara started laughing his head off, Vrin smiled (It was evil, I tell yah. EVIL), not getting up, and then…

"HAH! I TRICKED YOU!" she said that when Deidara got knocked off his feet and landed next to the earlier Vrin's feet. Obviously, that was a clone. My friend is just SO FREAKING AWESOME!

"Tobi WILL BE A GOOD BOY AND CALL ITACHI SENPAI TO HELP!" Tobi then rushed into the house.

Meanwhile, Zetsu was watching the so-called 'battle' taking place, and both halves seemed to be arguing.

"Are they fighting? Of course they are. Can't you see it? Oh. I'm hungry. Let's eat them. What? No! that's not nice. So what if it's not nice? I'm hungry! Thou shall not eat them. What is wrong with you?" Zetsu started punching himself. His white hand punching the black side, and vice versa. I know, it's weird, but it's incredibly funny.

Carol raised her hand. "Can you interrupt each other's sentences?"

Zetsu stopped punching himself and glared at Carol. "What makes you notsay that? Hey! Don't interrupt me! What was I doing? I wanted to eat them. Can you don't stop interrupting me?" Zetsu then face-palmed. His white hand, duh.

Meanwhile, Vrin and Deidara were throwing things at each other. Vrin throwing shurikens and kunai, Deidara throwing little bombs which look harmless. Of course Vrin knew better than that (the look harmless part). Like I said before and will say it again: MY FRIEND IS AWESOME!

"WHY WON'T THE BOMBS HIT YA, UN?"

"WHY WON'T THE SHURIKENS HIT YA?"

"BECAUSE I'M AWESOME!"

"NO ONE OTHER THAN MY BEST FRIENDS CAN USE MY FAVOURITE WORD!"

But Vrin was tiring out, I could see that. She tried covering it up by shouting at Deidara. Believe it or not, throwing shurikens tire her out. When suddenly Lee, who wanted to… oh why don't I show you what he said (in his mind).

I must help her! But what should I do? I know! I will do that one jutsu I've been working on… Dynamic Entry! Yes! But I must wait for the right time…

There you have it. Back to the fight, Lee immediately did it because he was too excited (don't ask me did what, I just told you!) and kicked the surprised Deidara in his face.

"IN YA FACE, LITERALLY! HAH!" Vrin shouted. May I tell you, shouting will actually tire you out even more, Vrin. Oh well. She does what she wants to. I can't stop her.

Just then, Tobi came out with Itachi. Tobi was practically dragging Itachi. Why? And I thought he wouldn't be able to drag me… I must stop underestimating him. Itachi said that! Or maybe thought that… I'll go with the latter.

"Wait. How 'bout we turn this into a real fight?" Deidara asked Vrin.

"Meaning?" she replied.

"Meaning we fight. One on one. You know, like the pathetic Chunin exams. Like the preliminaries or the third phase of the exam."

"I have no idea what that is."

Itachi sighed, then explained the whole concept. "To become chunin, genins -which you are- participate in an examination known as the Chunin Selection Exams, -or rather just Chunin Exams- with their team. Get it? the preliminaries or the third phase requires a one on one battle. But in this case-" he looked at Deidara "Considering that we are S-rank criminals fighting against genin, we should let them fight with their comrades. But we get to choose who to fight. The person then chooses his or her comrade. Understood?"

Everyone nodded, and I thought (sarcastically) this is gonna so fun.

FINALLY! Yes, I'm keeping the author's note in its original form. To VG, ALI, CAS, NNA, WML congrats on the straight A's! I meant to update on the day we got our results, but then I was busy and everything… '-.- oh, and please review! I'd sure appreaciate it! :D
