Mission Name: Festival Security: Cat Burglar
Rank: EVENT
Objective: Hunt down the Nekomata who has been stealing Ryo from the festival goers.
Location: Namahage Festival.
Reward: 10 Tickets
Mission description: Nekomata are catlike yokai who can assume the forms of humans in order to better mingle with the populace. However they are intensely kleptomaniac and will attempt to make off with Ryo in order to spend it on fine fish and other delicacies. A group of particularly crafty local strays has been taking money from festival goers both human and yokai alike. Catch one and make sure to give it a good beating to dissuade it from doing it again.
Mission details: The Nekomata thief if noticed will attempt to lead the security into an ambush comprised of its 18 siblings. While none of them are particularly good fighters they have sharp little claws and will bite and kick like crazy.

'STOP! THIEF!‘

Hanbei could hear the hark and cry of a person in trouble no matter where he was, his instincts kicked in like a bat out of hell as he would activate his supernatural walking practise and bolt in the direction of the sound, finding what appeared to be a woman with an exceedingly long neck weeping into her hands as Hanbei would arrive, asking what direction the thief went and what they looked like. The woman replied in kind, pointing in a direction with one of her somewhat regular hands as Hanbei would turn, seeing something akin to a black and white shadow darting onto a rooftop in the distance. Telling the woman to wait here and that he'd be right back Hanbei would burst off in the direction of the burgler in an attempt to chase the accursed thief on foot. Reaching the house, hanbei would jump landing on top of the roof as the thief only seemed to be a couple of houses away, looking back to see if they had been followed hanbei was able to get his first glimpse at the person who had stolen the napsack from the woman in the market place... a visage that would only serve to give the term cat burgler even more of a bad name.

''It's about time i came across some of you i reckon.''
Hanbei would say to himself as he would redouble his efforts to catch up with the menacing feline.

Black furr that seemed to cover most of its form, giving it a degree of camouflage but was betrayed by salt and pepper spots around its eyes and hands, especially the white crest that seemed to be across the center of its chest. The creature was an odd one for a bergler, it wore little in the way of clothing other than what appeared to be a cloak of some kind. Hanbei didn't get much more of a look as he gave chase as the feline jumped down into a street, though hanbei wasn't about to follow suit, the roof-tops were a much better vantage point, and as they were all the same level Hanbei now had the power to cut corners that the cat did not. Activating his medical sight technique Hanbei was able to keep tabs of the troublesome tabby as he chased from above, gaining corner by corner as he would stalk the cat to where it kept its den.

'Finally, it came to an end!‘

Tha cat stopped, running and sliding underneath a house in an alley as it seemed there was a small congregation of other cats. Landing on top of the house that they hid under they began to rummage through the bag as the one who had just came home, seemingly named mcavitty told them that there was no time and that he may have been followed back. Hanbei could not help but laugh at the tough guy name of the head cat. Looking down at them they were definately not trained fighters. Activating his Guanyin star spheres he would lower them down into the hole of the house, their light brightening the place like a globe as they would stare down the entranced cats for a moment before suddenly, they would open fire with a hail of needles. Not aiming for lethal locations or even ones that would deal them any harm or pain to speak of, rather aiming the needles for pressure points and paralitic points in the accupuncture system, as each one landed a limb went limp and numb, ending their cavalcade of crime for the mean time at the very least.

'Well, that's a couple of naughty little kitties put down for a little while, good thing that i didn't break the rules of the festival, someone must be watching me ...'

Jumping down, it didn't take long for Hanbei to recover the bag against the better wishes of the Nekomata, some of them seemed to be younger, like street cats that were likely just pilfering to live. However, the leader was certainly out just for himself. Looking to them all, especially the girls and the younger ones, Hanbei thought to give them all a little bit of advice, telling them to stop stealing from things or soon they would end up at the bad end of a spirit that will do each and every one of them in... he heard there were wanyudo in town after all, and they were always on the prowl for cat souls... Some of them seemed to be scared, others not so, but it seemed to leave an impression none the less. Looking to one of the kids, Hanbei would take a couple of the needles out to let them move, telling the kid they were better than this, and that if he wanted to get out, while the others couldn't move, now was the time.

'What happened next was kinda magical‘


One by one the little cat would take the needles out of the other younger cats and some of the girls, leaving the main black cat and two of the older girls as he would tell them all it was time to go. Running out the hole to get away from the others as they shouted profanities at the run away kids that seemed to have wanted to move on to a better life in one form or another. The others however, seemed like they were pacified for the mean time, Hanbei would maintain the needles there for the forseeable future to give the little ones a few minutes head-start at the very least.


'it was a good day'


At the end of it all, he bought the bag back to the woman, saying that everything was still there. The woman thanked the boy incessantly, handing over some tickets as a reward. Smiling gratefully, Hanbei would bow, before walking off back into the festival.
