The day after Akui gave kideme a present, he had set about doing the best job he could. He wanted nothing more than for kidime to be happy about him working there. Something about her smile made Akui feel safe and warm. So to return his gratitude, Akui was in the middle of the tea house painting but really, he was keeping his eyes and ears open. It was this day when his life would change forever. A tall scrawny man with some ragged clothes walked into the tea house holding something close to his chest. At first Akui didn't pay him any attention cause he looked like a bum. The man went from table to table and it was only a matter of time before security kicked him out. He then came up to Akui who was able to smell him before he even got close. Akui placed his hand over his nose but what the man said to him made him look towards him. "Hey sir, you want some opium?" Akui looked puzzled at the man. "What is that?" "It's a drug man you feel all crazy and high. It feels really good man." Akui had no idea what opium was but he knew of certain drugs that had this same affect on people. Akui got up from a seated position and motioned for the security guards to stand down. "Let's go talk outside in the back. After you." The man walked feeling happy that he finally persuaded someone to check out his package of drugs. Once outside, Akui led him to the back where they could be away from prying eyes. "Ok so...how does this work?" The man holding the dirty looking package opened it up to reveal a bouquet of flowers. He then sliced a knife through one of the seed pods and extracted the latex. He then tied the package back up and pulled out some tobacco and rolling papers. Mixing them together, he then lit it with a flint and started smoking it. "See easy peasy man try some." Akui stepped back as he couldn't stand the smell of smoke along with this man's stench. "No thanks um...you go ahead and finish it. " "suit yourself kid." The man continued smoking and Akui began to watch him intently. The more the man smoked, the more he started to become wobbly. The man also started to look around in all directions while scratching himself. Akui knew that being drunk allowed one to be a victim as he saw it all the time with the working girls. He wondered how being on this drug would react. "Hey uh...you gonna give those drugs?" The man turned his head to Akui as he spoke as if seeing the kid for the first time. He then looked to the ground where the rest of the drugs were and he gave it to him. Akui was surprised that the druggy gave it to him so easily. It seemed that the dope head fiend also felt that he gave it to easily and tried to reach for it. However his movement were to sluggish and Akui simply held the drugs away from him. Eventually the man fell to his knees and enjoyed the grass he laid in. Akui couldn't see how anyone would ever want to take a drug like this. As he was about to throw it away in the pond, the scrawny man made a remark. "No wait man, that alone costed me 50k ryo." Akui looked at the him with wide eyes. "You idiot you could do so much with that kind of money...." he trailed at the end when he got an idea. "Tell me, where did you buy this?" The scrawny man got to his feet slowly but was having a hard time standing up. He then reached into his rags and pulled out a map. He gave it to him then laid out on the grass and knocked out. Akui unfurled the map. He traced his finger over it noticing some of the land marks were very close due to his first mission. Akui rolled up the map and headed back inside the tea house. Later on that evening, Akui was dressing in all black and carrying all his weapons. He needed to be on alert should the worse come. He tucked his map into his robes and pulled a black mask over his face which only exposed his eyes. Holding the tiger hand seal, he would body flicker out of the room and beyond the gates of konoha. Akui would then reappear on a limb just as a cool breeze blew past and rustling the leaves. Akui, closed his eyes for a moment to take it all in then ran off into the night to towards the first grow plantation. When he reached it, he was surprised that it was so small. In fact there wasn't even a guard to watch either. However what he did spot besides the one acre of opium was a tent and a fire on the other side of it. Akui would use his hiding in shadow technique to blend in the shadows and leap from shadow to shadow to to get closer. The last shadow was 5feet away and Akui crept out of it and on all fours crept to the tent. He peered inside to see a young man who looked to be in his 20's. He wasn't in any bad form as far as health or looks. Akui was just surprised that he was alone and didn't have any one to guard his crop. He could have easily stole it if he wanted to. However Akui had enough problems as it is than to add another murder onto his resume...for now. He poked the man but the man did not stir. "Hey mister, I want you plants, wake up!!" What astonished him was that the man poofed instead. Akui was dumbfounded then quickly inhaled his breath when a blade was resting on his shoulder. "You did very good coming this far. I was almost sure you would have gotten me...well the fake me not the real me of course. What surprised me was that you didn't act to kill me so then I wondered...why is that? What was even more astonishing was the fact that you said you wanted to buy my plants." The blade was lifted off Akui's shoulders along with his mask. Akui turned around to see the man he thought was sleeping in the tent. The man held an extremely long straight blade and his long blonde hair barely covered his green eyes. He was about 6'2, wore animal skin for most of his clothing and had a muscular tone. Although his voice was soothing and deep, the expression in his eyes were cold as ice. Akui slowly raised himself up and spoke again. "I am here to buy your plants...I want to sell them so can make something for myself. " the man nodded his head. "Yeah I heard you the first time kid. Do you even know what you are getting yourself into?" He then sheathes his weapon not feeling threatened by the kid. He also began to explain that he was a farmer in a smaller village and that he used these plants for medical purposes at first. However, many of the patients that he cured ended up as addicts and tried to rob him. It got to the point that he had to move away for his own safety after they burned down his house for not selling more. Since then he had tried to use it for good once more yet the same failing results had turned up. Akui then explained his reasons for wanting the plant. "Look I plan to use your plant for my own gain. Drug people of importance and get them to do what I want them to do. I already have a decent job as the eyes and ears of this tea house where lots of clients come in. If they were to become addicted to this, we could be wealthy within a few months." The man shook his head. "It make take less time that that. So anyhow, let's say your little plan works...right? What do I get out of this?" Akui could tell through the man's story he could care less about other people's health so long as he made a profit. It was only when things got to hectic for that he even bothered to close down shop. And since he went right back to making more, it wasn't like he was planning on stopping anyways. Akui had figured all that out and knew the true motive behind his question. " you get to stay out of the fray and will receive 15% return on whatever we sell. In return I will also provide you with people you would need to speak to in order to become someone of high stature. That way should our little operation become a bust, you can still retain some wealth in other ways." The man rubbed his chin pondering the offer. "Make it 30%." " you will get 20% no more no less if we don't have a deal then take up your sword and fight me." Akui was rather annoyed with this man. He literally had the best job out of this gig and he greedily wanted more. Akui knew he was going to have to get rid of him sooner or later. "Fine then 20% it is but I know how much these plants are worth and I can assure you that if you try to rob me, I will kill you." Akui smiled at the man and held his hand out to him. "Then it is a deal. Oh by the way what is your name?" "Kelton. That's it."
