Business at the tea house was crumbling. For some weeks now, it had been shut down for repairs and while it did get some of its business back, it just wasn't the same. Somewhere between now and the past month, something had happened, but Sup Pung just couldn't quite put her finger on it. Which was strange, since when she had first come to this Konoha, she started working there at the behest of Mame, her aunt from the other side of her late uncle's family.

When she had first started working there, business was wonderful, there was hardly a moment where it wasn't busy or filled with customers. Even the patrons themselves seem to hold a certain energy and all was well. But then.... something happened. It was like just one day a switch went off and the tea house was suddenly shut for investigation and torn apart. It was since repaired, but after it reopened the life it once had seemed to be sucked right out of the tea house. The customers now seemed detached, almost deranged even. And the same effect had reared its head with the staff. The geisha, the oiran, the showgirls, even Mame. Something was wrong, and it was continuing to get worse. The once high, happy energy was now rendered to a quiet darkness and Sup Pung wasn't sure what to do. Eventually all that buzzing business had wound down from being mildly steady to outright dead on some days. Though, the only part of it that didn't seem to suffer was the gambling den and the pleasure house upstairs.

Not long after one of the tea house's worst business days, Mame had come to her with some news.

A few days later after saying her goodbyes to Mame and a conversation with Yasu, Sup Pung was off to the house in the Uchiha district to collect some stuff and then set off for another place. Her destination wound up being an apartment some distance west of the district. The person that lived here was evidently named Hayato Sarutobi, and though she didn't know who he was, he was apparently someone of high importance and as such knocked on his door. Whenever he answered, she smiled up at him. "Ugh....hi. Are you Hayato Sarutobi?"
