A/N: Hi again! For those who know what I'm talking about, I closed the poll early because I came to a decision! I decided to change some citizens into humans since there was a tie. I already edited the other chapters. I'M SO EXCITED BECAUSE I'M GOING BOWLING FOR A FIELD TRIP TOMORROW! SQUEEEEEEEEE!

With that out of the way, LET'S BEGIN!

"Wow. Nook's sure a lazy bum," Ryan stated bluntly.

"Well, let's not stand here! I wanna get back at that scummy sales man!" Margie huffed.

"She ordered a couch from Nook's Cranny a few days ago, and it had mothballs in it! Not to mention that It was harder than bedrock!" Chevre whispered to the boy, wincing at the memory.

"I want to get back at Nook for forcing me into this job!" Ryan whispered back, making Chevre laugh.

After some more walking, the trio reached the bulletin. A stack of blank papers sat next to one of the legs of the board.

"So, what would be APPEALING to the general public?" the blonde asked with a smirk. The girls began to break down into a fit of giggles.

"Oh! I know what'll attract A LOT of customers!" Chevre said sarcastically.

After a few minutes, the sign was written and posted. It said, 'Tom Nook is a scummy raccoon with no life.'

All of the other people and animals of Tiny Town stared at the three friends as they walked back to Nook's Cranny, laughing their heads off. Ryan said that he'd meet them at Chevre's house after Tom Nook was done with him.

"Ryan! You've returned! Good, good," Tom Nook exclaimed, "I must tell you something. I had you do this job because there is a big bill to pay for your house. You have to pay 19,800 bells. But you don't pay it all at one, goodness no! Just go to the Town Hall and pay it off bit by bit! After paying the money, we'll talk about having your house remodeled! I'm sure you'd like some more space, yes?"

The boy said nothing. He couldn't get past the '19,800 bells' part. That was so much money! The house was smaller than a walk-in closet! He was now very glad to have written that message.

"O-okay. What do I get?" he asked.

"Your paycheck is 2,000 bells, but it's all going towards your bill. That's how it is with all of your paychecks. You can make money for yourself by selling things. I'll make reasonable prices for them," the shop keeper explained.

"Reasonable? HA! As if!" Ryan nearly shouted in his head.

After saying a quick good-bye, the blonde dashed out from the store towards Chevre's house.

When Chevre let him in, the boy collapsed on to the couch and let out a scream into one of the throw pillows. Margie stared at him, bewildered by his behavior.

"You heard about the bill huh?" the brunette asked with lots of sympathy. She put her hand on his shoulder, but quickly took it away, not wanting to repeat the awkwardness of last time they made contact with each other.

"I hate that stupid raccoon!" the blonde mumbled, his face still buried in the pillow.

"Well, let's just forget about that! We're here to have fun!" Margie added nervously, not knowing how to act towards Ryan.

He sat up, his face redder than a tomato. The trio sat together in silence for a while, until Ryan noticed the white piano near the door.

"Whoa! You have a piano? Awesome! Can I play it?" the boy asked, his anger dissolving into joy. He'd always been a music lover.

"Sure! Go ahead!" Chevre replied, happy to see him feeling better.

That night was full of beautiful music, lots of laughter, and food. The bill was long forgotten and Ryan felt at peace. Margie kept making jokes about Tom Nook, and the small party went on well past midnight. No one wanted to leave, so the elephant took the guest room, Chevre retreated to her room, and the blonde took the couch. He fell into a deep sleep, along with the rest of the house.

Yay! Ryan has a good turn in life! I was happy to make this chapter! Review please! Constructive criticism is appreciated! See ya'll in chapter five!

P.S. I might end every chapter with a catchphrase! Leave a PM or a review on which one you like best!

1. Stay EVIL!
