As Tiatsu would point out the plural of panthers, the old man would simply wave his hand. “Yes yes, I filed that there mission when there was only one, but now them damn things multiplied! I have about 30,000 Ryo more with y’alls name on it back at the house. I ain’t no lying geezer through and through. By the way, they hate fire, so if you have any fire jutsu things, use it but don’t set my forest afire ya hear?”

With that said, he’d walk up the mountain path, using his walking stick as support. He’d look back at the boys only to see Zaiko’s Byakugan which made him almost as pale as a ghost, “Sonny, your eyes have veins popping out…” if Zaiko explained they were special to his clan, he’d only nod once and chuckle nervously, “Oh..I-I see.” It took them about an hour before the old man would stop; he was breathing hard and sweating. Dokai took out a hanker chief and wipe the sweat off his face, “This…is as far as I go.. Them damn panthers are just up this path, they’re in a little cave. Remember what I said about the fire, okay? Take this lamp and matches if you need it.” With that he’d hand Zaiko the lamp and matches, afterwards, the old man would take out his water jug and chug it. “Y’all be safe now, ya hear?” Dokai would then leave the genin and chunin to it as he teetered down the mountain path, his free hand putting pressure on his lower back to suppress the pain.

The boys were now alone and they still had to make it up the path to the secluded cave where the panthers lived. It was still about a 2 mile hike, so they better get a move on before nightfall. There were a lot of trees around though, they could jump on those and shorten the time to only a mile. Panthers can see particularly well in the night which would mean trouble for them if they didn’t have a large enough light sources.
