The disguised Coda hopped off her crate as the bazaar began to settle down and headed for a nearby alley. As she disappeared around the corner a trio of bats vacated the area, convincingly startled by the young woman's entrance. In reality they were creations of the young shinobi, and they'd split off circling the market independently, looking for a target that matched the description they were given. Like shadow clones they'd poof back to their creator when their task was complete. For now Coda bid her time in the alley and planned out her next disguise.

Darkness fell quickly, eclipsing the market in its tendrils while the last of its souls faded away into quiet grumbles. Even the shouts of the couple from earlier faded away into the cool crisp night. Noticeably, almost all sound in the marketplace ceased to a complete stop. The citizens all huddled inside their homes as if afeared to go out, probably because of the murders and all that. Almost being the keyword.
With the cute little squeaks signaling the return of Coda's bat buddies, the only information that could have been relayed was the observance of 'working woman nad even men' each doing their best to entice others into their welcoming arms. Why they would still be out when the whole village was cowering the face of a serial murderer? An interesting question.
During the Chunin's ponderings, a mist began to roll in from the darker half of the alleyway. Staying low and rolling along the ground it crept, not just from her alley, but from every dark corner in the market.
It didn't take a genius to realize something was off. She suspected the strange behavior of the night workers had something to do with it, but at this point speculating as to the nature of that strangeness was relatively pointless. Nothing about it would derive a useful answer without more investigation. It was time to get to work, but perhaps with a more deft approach than Coda's typical shortest path. She need a bit more work on her covert techniques anyways. The Chunin's tattoos shifted into a complex sealing formation as she clapped her hands together, and a moment later three poofs heralded the arrival of Esmeralde, D'Arcy, and Anton high over the outskirts of the area. No doubt they'd give her s**t for summoning them as a group later on. They hadn't been the biggest fans of her need to nurse herself back to health for such a long time. A deal was a deal though. More importantly, few associated the bats with anyone other than Lahlil, and the Lady Hokage herself was perhaps that only one that could draw the line between them and Coda's peculiar subversions. The largest of the three circled in overhead, letting out the small chirps of echolocation and maintaining a tight pattern that'd allow her to maintain maximum height and still cover a decent area in Coda's immediate vicinity. To the uninformed it would sound little more than the normal chirping of the sky's nocturnal masters. The lights of the village's streets would more than obliterate any curious view of the night sky down at ground level.
Tattoos shifted again in the impossible darkness, and out the other side of the alley from the mist a somewhat inebriated man stumbled. Not dead on his feet from liquor, but exactly the type that would normally wander about looking for company after a lonely night out. Slightly disheveled, poorly shaven and trimmed. Clothes that were a half step between too nice for how he looked, and too cheap for whatever look he thought he was going for. He reeked of drink, like he'd gotten in a fight or maybe tossed his most recent round on himself by accident before being shepherded out. The type of person that the workers in the markets tended to be looking for. Another guy on his way home, passing through, as libel to fall asleep before the deed was done as anything else. Maybe a potential mark for something slightly more lucrative than a late night roll in the hay. He gathered his bearings for a moment, brushing himself off as if overly concerned by his ratty appearance, before doing a very unconvincing job of not seeming drunk as he made his way down the street towards a woman who was dressed as provocatively as he was poorly.

Coda returned to the market where her previous mission had been so rudely interrupted, with a different goal in mind. There had been multiple complaints recently of younger shinobi and trainees abusing their newfound abilities. Likely a function of the recent leadership upheaval. That was fine, the woman needed practice for her hunting anyways. Unfortunately, the first target would not prove particularly difficult to track down, running his mouth and making demands to anyone in earshot. He was tied to a pole at the center of the market before he knew what hit him. "Sit tight and enjoy the compliments of your peers." She said calmly, turning to hunt for the next. They'd not all be this vapid. [ Trouble for Troublemakers | Rank D | Hunter Mission ]
The next was only slightly harder to find. He wasn't shouting in the street like a moron, but he also wasn't a very shoplifter. No sleight of hand, just simple avoidance. If there was anyone there willing to get in a scrap he'd have been stopped much sooner. Alas, there was not, and it fell to Coda to tie him to the pole with his fellow troublemaker. They seemed to know each other, however, so that would be a thread worth considering. They were also a little old to be students. Dropouts maybe? Disaffected stragglers? [ Trouble for Troublemakers | Rank D | Hunter Mission ]
It seemed as though the really easy to track kids had been dealt with. The rest of Coda's mission would get tougher from here. Staying on street level was no longer an option. She made a show out of telling off the two she'd already captured, before pretending to head off. Slipping into an alley she darted her way up the sides of the buildings, rolling her way gracefully over the eve at the top. Her next target had taken to hiding on one of the roofs, rifling through their ill gotten gains. At least smart enough to get in and out fast, but a clone would see them snatched up and added to the growing group of captives. [ Trouble for Troublemakers | Rank D | Hunter Mission ]
The next target at least managed to see Coda coming. So at least she got a bit of a workout for it. They weren't very fast though, or aware, so a quick change of elevation put her in position to surprise them. They were getting better though. Maybe one would even think to carry a weapon. For now they went down with the same relative ease as the rest. [ Trouble for Troublemakers | Rank D | Hunter Mission ]
It seemed that there were two distinct groups of troublemakers. While the first group had just been general troublemakers, the rest moved in a group. This would tax Coda a little more than the individuals had. They needed to be picked off, but that meant it'd require enough finesse to avoid them getting spooked and running away before Coda could capture all of them. For now she tailed them across the roof tops as she had with the others. She needed the time to single out which one of them was prone to straggling and find a way to pick them off the back of the group as it was in motion. [ Trouble for Troublemakers | Rank D | Hunter Mission ]
The first opportunity presented itself when one kid grabbed a bit too many sweets from a stall. It didn't help them that they were being a bit brazen in this case. The troublesome child had gone so far as to use his shirt as a makeshift basket, and when this ultimately failed resulted to scrambling for what he dropped. It wasn't terribly difficult to whisk him away back to the pole where the previously captured kids were before the rest of the group was able to notice. Must have sucked to be the kid no one noticed disappearing though. [ Trouble for Troublemakers | Rank D | Hunter Mission ]

A jounin, it would seem, appears on the street. The sight of a ninja in full garb wasnโt out of the ordinary at all and ideally doesnโt stir too much concern for one seeming to mind their own. The jounin could be seen checking a small card and looked around the area as if checking for an address. The jounin kept on their path, minding to keep a casual appearance until squaring up with the tattooed youth. โExcuse me. Coda? Yes? Iโve a message to give you.โ
โNot causing trouble, eh?โ the jounin added with a chuckle. To be young.
With ample time to reply, the jounin extends a note on an official-like document. It was signed with an officialโs signature but not the Hokageโs.
โThere is a fortress in the Land of Demons, across the Kaizoku Sea, that has become of interest for the sake of preservation of our alliance with our neighbors. The fortress has become significant and we would like to know more about them. You are to avoid providing assistance to projects that compromise our standings with forces in the Sky Country. We cannot risk upsetting the Storm and Lightning over a third-party and it would be detrimental to create ourselves as a threat.
Survey the fortress. When you approach the fortress remain friendly. Do not engage in combat unless you are in obvious danger. Learn about the Leaderโs motives, goals, presence in the area. Come back to the Hokage with your findings.โ
โHead out as soon as your ready. Youโll be meeting your partner at the gates.โ

The chunin turned the summons over in her hand after accepting it, as if checking to see if there was any more to it. "Don't think I could clear the bar for whatever'd pass as trouble around here right now." She said casually, obviously referencing the commotion that continued at the office. Tattoos retreated from her fingers and palm as she tucked the card into her jacket pocket and headed for the gate, leaving her quarry to fend for themselves. The jonin could make it his business if he so wished, but Coda had no intention of sticking around. If they were gonna death march her mission to mission, they could at least come pick up their scoundrels on their own.

Finally reaching the bazaar, Theo would wander through looking for the armor shop he had been told about, when she spotted a scroll shop first. โHmm, I could use a new scroll to store my armor and weapons ... might not be the best idea to go walking into a kageโs office armed to the teeth when they donโt know me.โhe would think to himself before ducking into the shop and finding a large scroll labeled as a kageโs scroll. Tossing the shopkeeper a thousand ryo, Theo would sling it across his shoulder where the scroll rested across his lower back as he left the stall.
Reaching Metal Matters, Theo would make small talk with the owner as he looked over the selection of armor. When he made his picks, Theo would nod slightly, โAlright, can I get the black jounin flak jacket with the shoulder guards plus the Vanguard plating for extra protection. Along with the steel arm and leg guards. And the stealth hunter jacket.โ When the man gave him everything, Theo would count out his ryo and pay the man before shaking his hand and leaving, throwing the flak jacket on quickly as he walked out before sealing the other stuff into his scroll.
Finding the weapon shop, Theo side-eyed the shopkeeper,he seemed suspicious for some reason. Walking through, he found himself a fairly well made katana, a nice staff, and grabbed 5 packs each of shuriken and kunai, as well as 3 packs of smoke bombs for the time being. Once he paid for the items, Theo would seal everything into his scroll for safe keeping other than his new staff and a few kunai, the latter of which were stashed in his pocket on his left thigh.

Sumika kicked her feet up onto the stack of crates that now served as her personal lounge, rather aloofly munching on a bag of chips for someone whom the JUEI likely kept a tail on. Not that theyโd have found it particularly easy to follow her around lately as sheโd have appeared to spend most of her time in her small apartment only to reappear elsewhere in the village seemingly at random. Her plans were hers and hers alone though, at least for now. Beyond that she cared little for the goings on of the higher ups in the village. Theyโd so far proven to have little care for her, and little concern about their conflict driven ideologyโs impacts on the village - though at least the latter had stayed away until lately. Some kerfuffle at the gates created chatter loud enough to trickle down through the little people, but they were still standing and so the pint sized shinobi cared not for whatever the dust up was. Well, aside from the fact that it probably drawn Sadayoโs spooks away from being far too concerned with noting every time she took a dump or whatever useless nonsense that lot did - if they were even doing more than routine checks weeks into Sumika not being the vile traitor the Hebikage insisted she was. If life in the series of villages that lead to this current version of Konoha had taught Sumika anything, though, it was that the tables would turn on that equation eventually. Her frustrated antics were unlikely to remain the most noteworthy unrest in the village for much longer.
For now, all this meant building other things where she was allowed to build them. It was clear no one in the village was particularly interested in allowing her even a modicum of influence, regardless of how much personal strength she built - even if the effort and resilience required to build it was significantly more substantial than their own. She was lesser for function of choosing not to involve herself directly in the war-making machinations and puerile politics of their narcissistic fantasy world. Fine. There were better ways to help people than winning glory blowing things up for other people. And better fights to have out here in the mud and grime. It wasnโt like any of this power would be applicable here in the village, at least not at the moment. You could hold the power to physically remake the world and itโd offer nothing to the kid and his moment wandering the bazaar, looking for this and that.
Thus, the crates. Sheโd bided her time as Sadayoโs focus turned elsewhere. Building piece by piece. A structure by which she could obtain and distribute what was needed in Konoha among the small people. A method of support for young puppeteers. A way into and out of the village that didnโt belong to the council of elders. New equipment for those in the bazaar who had nursed their livelihoods along after multiple devastating attacks on the village. An escape that didnโt require unprotected flight across the village in a world where no one seemed capable of exercising restraint. Sheโd have to be careful, sure. It wasnโt technically legal. But at least she could take the heat on her own shoulders instead. If someone was getting the heel of a jackboot it might as well be the person whoโd spent a lifetime antagonizing the thugs wearing it. Plus, influence built this way might afford some ability to actually address problems. Push out people who might use the existing criminal structures in Konoha to do more violent and repulsive things. Today the problem being solved was a leaky roof, addressing decay before it became destitution. Focus on the internal rather than the external. Maybe her stalkers would take that back and drill it into the bun headed weirdo.
It wasnโt long before someone showed up to take the supplies, and a small bit of ryo changed hands - half belonging to Sumika herself, and half belonging to the neighbors of the building thatโs roof needed fixing. If the JUEI hadnโt shown up to chase her out of the office, perhaps this problem would be fixed from the village coffers instead of the residents. Probably a harder sell to the daimyo that controlled the land, but the right thing to do. That said, Sumika was also aware that she might not always be here. The encounter in the office had made it quite clear, at least to her, that she was not safe in the village and probably never would be. That her legacy would have to be concrete and immovable, not fond remembrance. The villagers needed the tools to help pick up the pieces of their live without, or perhaps in spite of, the influence of the shinobi world. The puppeteer helped heft the last of the crates onto a cart as she pondered the relationship between the Hokage and the village again. What it meant that the people in power had responded with authoritarian violence, and what that meant about the various people sheโd known over the years.
Sheโd always known that Uzushiogakure wasnโt ever the shining beacon she held in her mind. That not everyone took kindly to people just showing up and founding a village. An older Sumika had a better grasp on the effects that must have had on the surrounding lands - despite all her mocking of the fundamental structures of the villages. She hadnโt been much different than Sadayo back then, even if the roots of disaffection had already taken hold. Narcissistic and self-absorbed, sure that the village belonged to her, sure that she was on top of the world. Hell, sheโd even been a bit of that back at the office. She was demanding her own seat at the table, when she should have been demanding one for every member of the village. Living in Neo Leaf was like being pulled in a thousand directions by a thousand tiny strings. The majority of the problems here required solutions beyond her reach. She could fix a few things, provide a few things, build small alternatives but they couldnโt be big. If they ever got big, theyโd be a threat. If they were a threat, theyโd be ruthlessly stamped out and the record would only ever tell of insurrection. There was value in the small things, but not relief. She rolled the top of her chip bag and gave a whistle, Cobalt the panda trundling lazily around the corner a moment later. [ Growth ]

Yui totally legit buys the Sanshouuo, the Salamander ( Tier 1 ) puppet.
A large panda, now drawing a cart full of relatively broken puppet parts, lumbered its way through the bazaar, buzzing following the expulsion of the Jashinist threat from the village. An annoyed looking shinobi dressed in a shimmering black cloak move with a similar lack of precision as she deftly cleaned one of about half a dozen skewers of some indescribable street food in a single pass. The cart came to a stop at the type of shop that closed with a big segmented rolling door, and a flick of her hand in its direction raised the barricade to reveal an open air workshop of a decent size. "Alright bud, you know the drill. You only get shoots if you put it in the right spot." She said between big, chomping chews of her meal, if that's what you'd call it. Cobalt gave the kind of big, whining growl that only a bear could produced and then acquiesced.

Bleh, another long day. Yui would skulk around with a pout painted on her face, down in the dumps. her recent activity within the latest Jashinist attack had left the young puppeteer in a sour mood. In some vain attempt to better her mood, she had decided to visit the Markets in search for food. Luckily her allowance for the week had come through which gave her some amount of change to feed herself. Nothing seemed to be catching her interest while her legs carried her through the streets. She'd settle for some mixed orders of dumplings and other assorted foods to get her fill before stumbling across a walking panda. With her curiosity peaked, Yui cautiously walked on behind the bear as it would continue on beside a cloaked individual. She walked on the tips of her toes to attempt a peak at what kind of merchandise that the bear would be handling. From the looks of things, they were puppet parts! So this bear or that person beside him was a puppeteer too? Maybe they'd be willing to help her out? That would be awesome!
Yui stuck to the crowds of people and cover to shadow the two while they soon came to the front of a building with barricade covering the entryway. During the wait, the young Genin rushed forward to greet the two, still carrying her meal in the meantime. Her feet jogged up in front of the cloaked individual with an awaiting smile, munching on her last piece of mochi.

Mayumi walked about the bazar while quietly observing people going about their business, the combat around the villages having brought things into high alert for so long it was nice that she could now not expect to be suddenly deployed as backup. She was simply here to purchase some equipment and some bentos as sheโd neglected making food due to being on standby and was hungry. During her journey she would purchase some equipment as some of her old stuff had been getting worn with use and were beyond simple touch ups. Finally she would spend a lengthy time trying to chose two good bentos and some desserts, torn on what sweets she would prefer most and ended out going with pudding.

Sumika was about to walk into her shop when suddenly the top of a head parked itself in front of her. The top of a head? That was... not a perspective the rat sage was particularly accustomed to. Closer examination reveal that it was attached to what appeared to be an Academy Student. But then, it wasnโt an Academy Student that looked like the type of Academy Student that would not be in class right now? So... a Genin? Really? Maybe just a kid. Green eyes narrowed slightly as the mess of platinum blonde hair lowered ever so slightly to look Yui right dead center in the face. She absentmindedly tapped the tip of one of her stubby Oni horns as she did so, taking a somewhat uncomfortably long amount of time to get things sorted out. โWhat are you supposed to be?โ As if on cue, a racket emanated from the shop behind the younger girl as Cobalt the panda decided that now was the time for a sit - dumping the puppet parts into a pile on the shop floor. โAwe come on man! I made the harness so you can take it off yourself! How do you keep spilling a self leveling cart?!โ Whatever Yui was here for, sheโd be competing for attention with Sumikaโs puppet work; work that began immediately as the older shinobi side-stepped the eager little duckling on and pulled the rather charred and broken looking puppets from the floor with a gesture of her hand - depositing them onto one of the handful of workbenches before beginning to distribute them to their own in short order.

Hopeful eyes gazed up at Sumika from down below. Despite being directly in front of this woman's way, Yui was just happy to have met another person dealing with puppetry. How fortunate so soon after her most recent bout between the Jashinist threat and the village. She just kept on watching while the girl lowered herself down to at least keep the Genin from craning her neck up at a ninety degree angle while they looked at one another. Yui's own eyes only seemed to grow more alight upon noticing the girl's little horns sticking out of her forehead. While she would have loved if it was one of those massive ones like how Oni were always depicted, this would do for now. She wanted to poke one, just to see how they felt, but knew better than to push such boundaries for a first meeting. Upon the girl's question, the quiet girl reached for her pad of paper and a black marker while scribbling down her response. Before she could finish though, a thunderous noise had come from behind her as the bear that had been hauling the cart would decide to take a nice rest and throwing the contents of his cart on the ground. Her handiwork was done hastily and she scurried over towards the workbench that Sumika had been at.
"Are you a puppet user? I'm trying to learn more about them and looking for help. I'll help you if you need any."
Her handwriting was fairly neat for what amounted to hastily writing down what exactly it was that she wanted. Of course, she'd hold it for the woman to see front and center. And if not, she'd just reach up for a limb of one of the puppets on the workbench and yank it down to get her attention.
