1 Robbing the wrong guy. Fri Jun 21, 2019 1:56 pm
Ryu Myugan
D-rank
This was an awkward time for Ryu. he was too accustomed to fighting to survive. From the prison to breaking into the ninja libraries to get stronger to fighting in the streets for territory. He had thought himself a king at one point. Strongest fighter around for the citizens to gather to. Fighting to keep that authority and power and taking what they needed and well, what he wanted., Even during the war he had been skimming around the outskirts and hitting supply routes for his own wants. Getting wealthy was the goal. Eventually moving camp out of this wasteland when he thought he had enough to start up a nice village for him to rule over. He didn't care to have much but luxury and people answering to him. A village would do just fine and he knew how to make it prosper. They would export alcohol and everything. He was going to live his life at ease. Only fighting when some dumb ass tried to rob his village and otherwise just taking it easy. Let the others work and just manage the trade documents. It was all so easy and going as planned. However he had waited too long.
While he had been picking through the scraps of the dead and enemy camps left behind he had missed the village returning to order and sustainability. His little village on the outskirts however had not and after much debate they had decided to thank him with a few gifts and returned to their new homes. Eager to be a part of something they had become homesick for. He didn't really have a good excuse for them not to go and soon was left in an empty camp. The well and his tent left behind as he had stubbornly refused to travel with them. His men even went with in search of a less life threatening life style. At first he had cursed and threw a tantrum as soon as they were all gone but then he recalled all the buried treasure he had. If it was enough to build a village....it was enough to make a life in the village easy. Sure it was stolen but it was stolen from the other villages. So he could likely barter all of it away to this new village that would need such things. If he could sell all of it he would retire to a manor.
So he had purchased a small shop and set up. All of the weapons and general supplies on display. Cleaned and polished. Shop had been set up but he had mistaken one thing. No one had any money really to buy more than something here and there. His general supplies and less expensive weapons were selling slowly but he had barely recovered the cost of the store so far. Needless to say he was grumpy. Sales were less than expected and now he was just a lowly shop keeper with no one to take it out on. No fight calling his name or anyone claiming him their champion. Just a forgotten thug with no territory or gang members under him. He would huff as his dark hair fluttered out of his face. At least no one was looking to put him back in prison anymore. His coat was hanging on the wall behind the counter. Long and dark with the symbol of the jackal on it. He himself was sitting on an old but sturdy bar stool tilted back precariously. His booted feet up on the counter with blue jeans over the cuffs and a black tank top on. His eye patch was over his right eye as always and he was pushing himself back and balancing out of some sort of boredom. A glove rested tightly over his left hand but only hummed lightly. Unbeknownst to him there was a group of about five masked thugs getting ready at the back door to bust in his shop and claim all these displayed treasures. It was supposed to be an easy hit. One shop keeper, a good distance from any shinobi posts, and lastly no guards. They simply didn't know who this shop keeper was...or who was watching them already.
