When Both of his companions had read their letters, Arantima clicked his pointer finger and thumb claw tips together, making a subtle but pleasant ringing sound for all of those present. He whirls around to face the direction of the main gate and begins to walk towards the Gate of the village with a will and purpose. "When we pass the building that the Man we are to rough up stop and head inside. I will slide in and speak with the owner of the building and see if there is anything we can help him with. I will however entirely leave the roughing up to you Kana-mi, if all three of us went after him the carnage would be appalling. One of us I can hope will leave enough of a human left to pass on the idea that we don't fuck other men's wives, without all parties consent."

Arantima continues at a pace that is brisk for Kana-Mi and kinko but not difficult to keep up with for a short while before speaking again as they pass an aleeyway "Kinko, When we arrive at the location for the eviction, I will send you in first. You could benefit from dealing with hostiles in tight spaces on your own but if you need assistance Call out and activate your seal.. I will lock down the area with a Spatial jutsu that you will be immune to so long as your seal is active." He looks casually over his shoulder towards Kinko for a mild sort of confirmation he understood what the possibilities were if he didnt activate his seal before calling for help.

It was not long until they came across the bar that Kana-mi's Mission described to her. The location of the philanderer, who was likewise apparently the villages most notorious drunk and bar brawler, which probably contributed to the reason a Ninja mission was taken out to handle the man. When They entered the bar Kana-mi, Kinko, and Arantima would be overwhelmed with two things, the sounds of irregular heart rhythms in a loud cacophony and the scent of stale booze and even more stale sweat. For some of them it may be familiar for others completely new and gut wrenchingly horrific. Arantima's reaction was to close his eyes and through some sort of preternatural control navigate to the bar via his Kyuketsuki senses alone.

Arantima Spent the remainder of the time at this particular bar engaging the Bar owner in conversation about a few things but by the time the Brujah-ha was complete with the philanderer he waved a small slip of paper towards Kana-mi and Kinko with a very jovial laugh. "Two birds one drunk! Looks like the Bar owner didnt like him beating up his regulars! Had a small bounty out for anyone who could whup'im inside the bar for everyone to watch. Ill split the winnings outside!" He waved Kana-mi and Kinko towards the exit door.

Kinko's Eviction was likewise not far away from the Bar.. However things here were just as rowdy as the bar if only improved by the lack of stale alchohol scent in the air. It was however replaced with the scent of unwashed human among other unclean smells emenating from the house as the landlord was currently outside of the building barking into it for the tenants to vacate themselves from the building or at least pay their rent. The landlord was met with a most ceremoniously thrown bucket of.. Nope, the smell says more than enough, no one wants to know the true contents just knowing that the rancid smell was so strong it curled the Kyuketsuki heightened sense of smell from 20 meters away is enough.

Arantima stopped dead in his tracks at the smell and blinked rapidly several times.. "I.. Ohgods Im gunna.. Kinko, If you want to swap.. I won't blame you." Arantima holds a hand over his mouth as his stomach convulses and he lets out an audible belch.. His body is obviously rejecting that scent.

Kana was not very appreciative of Arantima’s speed, judging by the fact that he had an advantage when it came to his height compared to hers, and length of stride. Nonetheless, Kana did her best to keep up as they made their way to the first building. Nodding her head in understandment, with the simple “mhm” following, as she listened to his instructions. “I’ll try not to have too much fun.”

As they neared the specific bar for the mission, Kana casually made her way through the entrance, still flocking behind Arantima. The stench of strong alcohol and rotten breath was all too familiar to the red-haired kunoichi. She had been to many places like this one during her time on the outskirts of the land of Fire. The taverns within Tanbogakure had been much more calm, and more clean. The sweet smell of rice sake and plum wine was almost nostalgic, not forgetting the lovely blonde which kept her good company.

But enough of that.

Kana’s fiery gaze scanned the room as she branched off from Arantima, leaving him at the bar where the owner was polishing off one of his liquor bottles. It didn’t take her long to set eyes on the target. Of course it had to be the rowdiest of the bunch. The muscle man hovered over a table near the center of the room, his arm flexed over the wooden surface as he powered himself over a game of arm wrestling. His features only slightly strained as he slammed the other guy’s hand to the table.

Kana whistled to herself, delicately snatching a small glass of whiskey from a passing bar-maiden’s plate as she made her way over to the commotion. The maiden didn’t even take notice of the missing glass, as of yet anyways. Kana took a drink from the glass, before she placed it on the table where the target sat. “Impressive. . I dare say.” She leaned herself slightly against the table, her palms pressed flat against the wooden surface. Men like this didn’t require much to boost their ego, and she was going to take a step further. She leaned over a bit further, gently tracing her finger beneath the target’s chin as she encouraged him to keep his eyes only on her. Drawing in all his drunk attention. “How about a reward? I wouldn’t mind letting you get to know me more.” Her words purred out with the sole purpose of seducing him. “Follow me~” Kana didn’t bother to wait for a response. She pushed herself from the table, grabbing her glass before making her way to the back.

Another drink from the glass and a quick glance over her shoulder allowed Kana to confirm that the man took the bait. She flashed him a smile as he followed after her. He stumbled every now and then, but did his best to hide his clumsiness. Kana wasn’t the type to hide stuff from. Her target was already easy to read, and his drunk state only made him easier.

The back of the bar had less lightning than up front. . just the way she liked it. The Kyukestuki could easily smell the man’s eagerness as she turned back towards him. He stepped a bit closer and the stench became almost overwhelming. Kana placed her hand on his shoulder, gently giving him a push that would place him against the wall. Of course he allowed her this bit of control. “Now~” the word coo’d softly from her lips. “I’d rather deal with you quickly. I’m on a bit of a schedule.” The man’s excited face slowly morphed into one of confusion as he attempted to register the meaning of her words. But Kana didn’t allow him much time to grasp the concept, as she suddenly swung her arm. Slamming the glass against the side of his face as the sound of shattering glass echoed through her ears. The uttering of a curse followed from his lips and the man shook his head with rage. The glass splinters littered the floor beneath them. The man suddenly lunged to grab at her arm, but Kana was much faster. She was already expecting such a reaction. With a sudden spin Kana dodged to the side to avoid being grabbed. “Too slow!” Her voice hitched with excitement as her body became live wire. The man gave an angry growl as he took a swing.

Of course. . she wasn’t surprised that at his drunken state, that the target was likely to try to hit a woman that had embarrassed him. Kana quickly ducked and witnessed as he almost stumbled over himself. As she jumped back up, the kunoichi brought her knee up to hit the weakest point of any man. The man cursed again as he fell to his knees. Her strike brought the results that she was hoping for. “That’s better.” Kana commented on the fact that now he was right where she wanted him. Bringing him to his knees brought her target to a more equal height for the short female. “Now be a good boy and keep your hands to yourself!” Kana grinned to herself like some sort of devil, as she swung her waist around. Spinning around to add a bit more power behind the kick she aimed to deliver. The collision of her boot against the side of the man’s head was enough to knock him out cold, for the time being.

Kana chuckled a bit amongst herself as she returned back to where the others were waiting. “That’s wonderful news Arantima.” Responding to his comment about the extra bounty bonus.

Kinko nodded in return to Tima as the trio trotted through the village. The more Kinko thought about it, the more odd it was that the trio was doing these odd jobs. He did not really expect to be doing such menial and trivial pursuits. Without regard, Kinko marched through, not entirely thinking this as a waste of time, as the trio were working together, building chemistry; but, there certainly were much bigger issues the trio were capable of handling. Kinko would hide his discontent and move on with no issue. The first stop was an insult, a place Kinko nor any Kyuketsuki would be seen. Kinko's reaction, a single blink of his eyes to show his absolute hatred for the moments he is going through in his current life. His eyes flashed over to Tima - not angry with him but slightly mad at him. His head was too bogged down by the foul musks and odors to think clearly but he began to question Tima's true intentions. Why would he be here.

A confused man, he could not breathe through his nose as the smell was so putrid and could not breathe in through his mouth, as even a subtle hint of tasting it would surely knocked him out. There Kinko managed to filter his breathing to survive. Fortunately, Kana did not take long and the trio were soon out of there way. Though, from what he did see from Kana, he knew she was a dangerous lady. She oddly, managed to blend in the crowd seamlessly and almost looked like she smelled like 'them'.

The trio would soon find themselves in a similar situation as they approached Kinko's task. Once again, this place smelled. Kinko soon realized why Gods would often smite the world. He heard Tima's voice and it brought a smile on his face as the three suffered through this moment. Kinko was conflicted because it was Tima who was leading him to these places but he could heard the genuineness in his voice. Kinko knew it was not intentional. He slightly shook his head. Exhaling, he ran and leapt towards the building, managing to enter through a chimeny-esque hole through the top. Kinko was easily able to locate the squatters as he could sense their heartbeats. Though oddly, the inside of the building was managed quite well with no immediate foul orders. Kinko took in a fresh of breath air, in enemy territory. Nothing felt better than being home. Still irked from previous encounters and the audacity, disrespect, and inhumaneness of their previous actions, they must be punished. Kinko in a state of anger, where he is not often in, stepped through the door frame of the room with two beating hearts and froze...

The eyes of the lady weeping, on a makeshift bed pierced through him, her tears still flowing. She was caught up in herself so much she did not act combative, hostile, or even stunned, as Kinko expected. Kinko has had his fair share of women crying in front of him, but the baby she was holding was innocent. Regardless, Kinko had a mission. Kinko saw a few bags that seemed to have been packed, assumingly, in anticipated of eviction. He walked over to pick up them and carry them out for her. He looked at her, with a face of stern and sorrow. A moment Kinko knew he would always regret as he knew he was making it. Without words, the lady got up with her baby and headed towards the door. There was no part of Kinko that failed to remember where he was but he knew the lady knew it was over, this was over. Kinko realized the poison toxic bag came from the baby.

The lady would not know but Kinko managed to slip in enough money in the bag to be able to take care of herself and the baby for awhile, though surely, the lady was in dire need of a long term plan. Kinko wondered if the dad might have been at the bar...

Soon, the front door would open to realize a lady and her baby being evicted by Kinko carrying their bags. Kinko would help affix and strap the bags onto the lady to make sure everything was secure and exhaled...as she left. Kinko walked back towards the trio without saying a word and not really looking at the rest of the gang, but waiting to confirm their departure.

When Kinko had come out with the Woman and her child in tow Arantima held his hand out to the Landlord, folding his hands in a "Cough it up" manner. The landlord shrugged and deposited the Mission reward into Arantima's hand where he strapped it to his belt and moved over to Kinko to give him a gentle tap on the back to indicate they were leaving before Arantima moved over towards the gates. As he moved it was with a vigor and purpose that he hadnt had since they had left through the veil surrounding yugure.

He stopped just outside the gate and indicated that Kinko and Kana mi should follow him to the side of the gate just out of earshot of any townsfolk lurking nearby. When Arantima figured they were hidden enough and alone he turned to Kana-mi and Kinko extending out his hands one for each of them "Ill take us home the fast way. So no one can follow us. When we get there, Theres some words I want to say about the work we did today... Im sure you found it curious and a bit un-becoming of us. You are not entirely wrong, but first lets leave shall we?" He waited until they Took his hands and Suddenly they were gone without a sound or warning.

When they arrived they were back where the Trio had met up for the missions, back under the Arch-way. Arantima began to distribute the money from the rewards into three bags, sitting on his heels so that he could use the ground as a table for the bags. "We are not Village ninja.. And Kyuketsuki are not Glamorous creatures. Kana, I think you know this the best out of us three.. These jobs were Meant to show you the life we are entering into here at Yugure.. The kind of life that The Village structure can breed when it becomes stagnant and a power structure dies without guidance...

Mizu's World, her vision seeks to prevent these sorts of villages from becoming the status quo.. Where these debauched and depraved minds can move and rule without someone to check them.. Becuase at the end. The Kage have all been nothing but selfish war mongers who throw power around at those who can not fight back. And when people ask questions they are silenced. They play at politics like children play at house.. when their real goals are all to clear, embroidered more gaudily than gold thread on their big hats. A rich version of Yugakure No sato is no different in its heart, it just smells better, looks better and is easier to trick people into believing those parts dont exist."

Arantima tosses the Bags with Kana's and Kinkos reward shares at their respective owners. He stands and brushes his knees off gently, which is slightly impressively done considering his hands are covered in razor sharp blades. He takes his own and tucks it into his Robes.. where it just disapears without disturbing his robes shape at all, as if it went somewhere else instead of into his robes. "Are there any questions? Concerns? If so.. Please come talk to me Or Mizuki later today. I have some training to go over with Pakuun, hes very young so I take care of him where I can."

Arantima smiles genuinely at the pair before he holds the Ram sign on his left hand and suddenly a small whirlwind of sand gusts around him and he is Gone, moving at 250 speed back towards the main compound in a trajectory where there is nothing in his way.
