Fuji's Market is where citizens can buy, sell, and trade, this includes things such as armor or weaponry. Much like Tanzawa's Marketplace, Fuji's Marketplace buys Metal Ores at twice the regular value.

"You did what!?!"
The steel knife struck the wall beside Takuma, snipping at his platinum hair, Takuma tried his best to keep his composure but he knew well enough that if she had wanted to rip his head off, she would've thrown that blade faster than he could've reacted to it. A bead of sweat dripped down his cheek in response to Yuno's outburst, her rage filling the Shop with an unavoidable sense of Dread and Bloodlust. Were his actions wrong? Bringing back their kids was always a priority, Kini had escaped the sights of his Tengu's and Kiyoko was God knows where.
"They manage to confirm her condition, she's doing well despite her having recently stolen one of my notebooks and a few pieces of equipment as well."
Yuno clenched her fist causing Takuma to slightly flinch in response, she was visibly aggravated at the information that Takuma brought her. It was very unnerving to have her daughters out in the open without supervision, Kiyoko was capable of taking care of herself but Kini? She knew that little girl was more than capable of getting into fights that weren't necessary. Yuno sighed heavily, sitting back down on and leaning against the chair. This was definitely becoming a headache, she knew that Takuma meant well but the man had a far more oppressive way of dealing with situations and more than likely was the reason for this entire mess to begin with.
"Aah... So you have no idea where they are?"
Takuma shook his head, Tengu had lost track of Kini and Kiyoko's location was unknown. The last lead he had was her being at a hospital but... He'd rather keep that bit of information to himself before he had a chance to speak the door opened up behind. Taio stood at the doorway with his usual smirk, his hands tucked inside the confine of his jacket pocket, Takuma gaze met the male's own, leader of Fuji's Masamune Clan Mercenary Corp, Takuma Masamune. The leader of the Fuji's Underground Gang, Genzo, Taio Rengaku. They both had history with each other, headstrong leaders with high egos and prides, Yuno disliked their interaction and even after forcing a cease-fire from both parties... They always started s**t.
"If any of you start a brawl in my shop, I will personally deal with you."
Taio smirked before stepping inside, the shop itself was the same as he remembered it from before, the same weaponry shop with the same similar. The walls lined up with various weaponry, the long L-shape desk that Yuno stood behind remained the same with its various graffiti writing, family pictures framed around the walls and even on the desk itself.
"Your children, it seems you're lacking the ability to keep an eye on them, although I was only aware of a single one... The Hybrid, I was never aware you had a younger one."
Yuno shot up from Taio's words with her hand pressed against the desk with enough strength to cause it to crack slightly, Taio took a step back with a sly smirk painted on his face.
"Where are they?"
"They took a little job for me, gathering some of those Demons, I'm sure being Takuma's kids they'll come back in good shape."
Takuma's brow rose slightly, crossing his arms and turning to Taio. He knew well enough of why Taio and he had such a dislike with each other, in a sense, it was due to jealousy, Taio wanted Yuno and in the end, Yuno ended up with him. He wasn't entirely sure if their fighting was due to this jealousy or due from something else, Yuno stood up as she made her way around and towards Takuma. Taio stood silently with a clear annoyed expression.
"You stay here, I'll go greet the kids... I don't want them running away from you, again."
Takuma nodded, he couldn't deny that the entire father-hood thing wasn't his best suit and he clearly needed to work better on it. Yuno stood in front of Taio before requesting for him to lead the way towards where the group would enter. ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Fuji's Marketplace, the building that stood before them was titled "Yunchi's" and decorated with various flowers throughout the entrance. Yuno along with the rest of her companions made their way towards the Shop entrance, Yuno glanced back as she held Thirteen's hand, glancing towards Kini for a brief moment before speaking out to Kiyoko. She knew well enough how they would behave, well enough to know that this wasn't entirely the best situation to bring Thirteen into but she hadn't planned for another individual to have shown up. The events of today were meant to force a reunion after her children had practically ran away.
"Behave yourself, Kiyoko."
Yuno's eyes drifted towards Kini who simply returned it with a confused expression, her hands still placed behind her head as she followed behind Kiyoko. This was reckless but it was better than sending Tengu's after them endlessly, they'll either keep running away or getting into fights, their issue with Takuma was something that should've been resolved far earlier but... Even she wasn't sure how to resolve it back then and even now she wasn't sure if it was the best course of action, her expression barely displayed this concerning thought.
Yuno entered the building first with Thirteen in hand, the interior of the building was decently large, various weapons were displayed along the walls of the Shop, spears, swords, and the likes. Shelves were located along the side and center of the shop, glass covering allowed others to see the smaller weapons in stock; projectile weapons like Kunai's, Shuriken, Daggers, etc... The far back of the shop had a wide L-shaped desk. Yuno continued walking towards the desk to a small door that allowed one to go from either side.
Kini entered the building last after Kiyoko, including herself, Kini hadn't felt anybody else within their immediate surrounding even after entering the building. That wasn't to say she was entirely correct on that notion, Yuno herself had her own method of bypassing her clans Magnetoreception, the same could be said for an individual from the same clan, more specifically one who held the title of Pirate King. The door behind them closed, not by Kini's own actions but by someone elses. Her head slowly turned back to face whoever had done such a thing, yet immediately her eyes widen once she spotted something familiar.
Platinum hair, vibrant eyes, that definitive facial feature with an apathetic stare at the two sisters. Her brow immediately bent inward as a curse left her lips, within that instant, her mind went a blur as her left eye's sclera had darkened as she turned. A rumbling reverberated throughout the building as a response to the Magnetic Field produced by the Feline that stood in front of her Father, Kini took a single step forward causing the weapons on the walls to be pulled off as dozens of sharp blades were pointed directly at Takuma's head.
"Why ta' ******** are ya' here!"
Takuma remained silent, eyes glanced at Kiyoko and back to Kini having seemingly ignored the threat of blades directed for his skull by his own daughter. This wasn't a scenario that he wasn't unfamiliar with, he was used to Kini's angsty rebellious outcry by now but never truly understood how to deal with it properly. Glancing at Yuno, he saw how the woman continued on with the child in tow as if entrusting the girls to him.... So what should he do? It wasn't as if reading about Parenting101 was going to be the most helpful thing at the moment, but he hadn't done the best job as a Father throughout their years, he opened his mouth to speak but immediately held his tongue as he glanced at Kiyoko... Waiting to see what she had to say first.
Yuno took Thirteen into the back, an Office Room with various family pictures decorated on the walls and even on the Desk itself. Pictures of a younger Yuno, Takuma, Kini, and Kiyoko both together and as an individual. Reminders of their somewhat much happier past, Yuno sat down on the desk facing a couch she offered Thirteen that was on the left side of the Office Door. Yuno crossed her leg as she leaned against the edge of the desk, her hands pressed on the surface as she gazed at Thirteen for a brief moment.
"So... Tell me about this Organization of yours, you seem to be sure that they'll return back from Kumogakure."
Until Takuma dealt with his own demons, Yuno was left to try and figure out what she can with Thirteen and at the very least.. Figure out why there was an Organization utilizing Children back in Kumogakure and why one was brought into Fuji.
Seeing as they were nearing their mother's place of work, Kiyoko thought it wise to finish up her pipe business and put it away, considering that choice of action to be the most polite. She would take her final drag off of her stress reliever and empty it out in a nearby flowerpot before putting it back in her back to be used some other time. While doing so, the sibling's mother turned around and glanced at the duo before issuing a verbal warning to the older sister which came out of left field.
If anything, aside from tossing Thirteen earlier while she was unconscious, had she done anything exuberant? Mild curiosity filled her facial features as she offered her mother some reassurance. The group of ladies would enter the workshop establishment with Yuno and the little leading the charge followed by Kiyo in the middle, leaving Kini taking up the rear end of their little train. Kiyoko would glance around the foyer to her mother's blacksmith shop, taking in the view that caused several memories to fill her thoughts of better times.
This place still looked the same from the last time she saw it, give or take a few ware that were missing and replaced by something newer, thicker, pointier even. Their mother continued to lead Thirteen to the back of the shop towards the large L-shaped counter and the door that lead to the actual workshop part of the store as the door behind the sister's closed.
Hearing Kini curse from behind her, Kiyo would casually spin around on her heels to see what had her sister in a sour mood, thinking that maybe she had found something nasty lingering on her clothing from the prior altercation but what she was greeted with was not something she was expecting. Well, that was partially false.
She knew there was a chance that HE would be here, but she had felt mostly lucky today, so she was putting all of her chips on the fact that he wasn't. With the realization that her father was standing before her took her mood and put it through the wood chipper and then fed it to some beast and had them s**t it out.
Kiyoko would meet her father's gaze as he took the aggressive tactic of Kini in perfect stride until lowering her own to the floor, her hands balling up into tightly closed fists, the nails at the end of her fingers digging into her smooth porcelain white flesh as little specks of red began to dot her skin, pooling up before running down and dripping to the floor. Her eyes were hidden under the shroud of her cap but it was still evident that her facial features were tense and that she was gritting her teeth, it painfully obvious that she was using all that she had to control herself from lashing out at the man.
Even more shakily, like a leaf in a hurricane, the older of the sibling duo would reach to the coin pouch on her hip and grab it, leaving behind bloody smears on the cloth fabric before half-heartedly tossing the bag to the floor just inches from her father's feet. ❝Go on.. what do you have to say..❞ She would finally speak up, her voice full of wavering confidence.

13 was lead into the room by Yuno. She had a few moments to take in the room before Kini went off on Takuma. This was unexpected at this point, but Kiyoko was also upset. The whole situation had become tense suddenly. She took note of the weapons Kini was able to levitate. So, this girl had those kinds of skills it seemed.
13 looked over the pictures in the room. She supposed they were a family. She’d seen plenty of these as she’d observed the villagers, though she had no first hand experience from what she’d remembered. Strangely, this man who Kini had just become angry with was in the pictures as well. What exactly was a family then? 13 had imagined the children were subordinate to the adults much like in her organization, but if that were the case, then Kini had just threatened her superior. But nothing about Kini had ever made sense to her.
13 looked slightly confused when Yuno offered her the couch, and instead of sitting down, she stood in front of it at attention. “I… I can’t tell you. I must follow my orders,” she said in her usual lifeless voice.

( ❃ )x▀▄xTakuma Masamune xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx𝑅𝒶𝓃𝓀: A
Pirate King... Why had he aimed for that title? To protect his clan and change it from the better, change it to protect? Was it for his family, did he go through such brutal combat to protect his Wife and Kids? Was it worth the sins he had committed, the family he had lost and the people he had to hurt? He had missed so much, the times his Wife and Kids spent together at the Park, shopping, the beach, even their first words... He had missed them all, but was he wrong for training them the way he had? Raising them to be able to protect themselves, to be able to walk the same path he had in order to protect their people?
Felines a word born from hatred, it was his crimes that brought them both into this world and he knew well enough that he shouldn't have done so, marrying one outside of the Clan would only birth halflings, halflings who would be subjected to hatred and harm. He had seen it happened countless times, to friends and their lovers, to families and their children, he witnessed the burning and the murders, the torture and even more the rape. The Masamune's were nothing but barbaric savages born for combat, was that their reason for dislike against Felines? A race they viewed as inferior due to their limitations, limitation that Takuma had attempted to force out of his own children over, and over, and over, and over again.
Was he... Truly wrong? Yet there he stood face to face with his children once more after nearly two and a half years, their aggravation was understandable and yet Takuma couldn't formulate a proper apology, he wasn't sure if he could apologize for years of harsh treatment, years of neglect caused by his blinding dedication, a selfish desire that had consumed him far beyond normality. Takuma's vibrant eyes drifted towards both of them, Kiyoko's enraged expression was clear as day and her intention despite how much she restrained herself.... Would she attack if Kini had done so? She was caring enough, supporting enough to the point that it wouldn't surprise Takuma if she had.
A pouch slid across the wooden ground before halting but a few inches from his feet, Takuma glanced down at the fabric following Kiyoko's words and immediately it seemingly confirmed his own suspicion from earlier... But it likely wasn't a good idea to bring that up at the moment, Kiyoko was old enough and a bit more controlled to take care of herself, she was less likely to get into too much trouble when compared to Kini.
"I'm proud of you both... Being able t―"
Takuma's words were cut off by his own volition, the blades that were aimed at him were launched rapidly with precise accuracy following Kini's loud curse of denial. Takuma who had reached down to grab at the bag that Kiyoko had tossed glanced up at the sensation, alternating Magnetic Field being used to propel object like a bullet? She had learned well enough and developed on her own skills, yet this was still Kini, the same Kini who didn't favor such usage― well it was better of saying she didn't really excel in such usage. Shimmering yellow light filled the area around him in a tight spherical space, collection of sparkling dust was specific in their collection at the very tip of each incoming weapon. A pseudo-barrier of Gold Dust surrounding Takuma.
"Ta' ******** are ya' proud of! Huh!!?? Why are ya' here! Shouldn' ya' be with yer' otha' buddies?! Yer' otha' perfect lil' Masamune's who aren't failures!"
Takuma stood back straight, gripping at the pouch that Kiyoko had tossed. He immediately swallowed his words once Kini had mentioned "Failure", the word he had used far too many times towards Kiyoko and her, his eyes lowered as he gazed at the ground briefly, raising them once more to meet Kiyoko before attempting to speak.
"You... Aren't a failure, to have defeated Demons using your individual strength is praiseworthy."
His words seemed to have triggered a spark in Kini's eyes, her expression twisting into bloodlust as she dropped the magnetic field that held the weapons. The small room was consumed by the sound of metal crashing against the ground, the clanking sound consuming the heavy stomp of Kini's footsteps as she moved in towards her father with balled fist, her words filled with venom.
So she wouldn't take a seat? The kid was raised in a rather militarian way, in a sense it reminded her of the Tengu's but even they had their limits in recruitment especially under Takuma's current ruling. While Thirteens tone remained monotonic, the seemingly lack of emotions driving each word that escaped her petite lips, Yuno didn't miss that brief spacing between the beginning of her phrasing. A stumbling? Hesitation? Uncertainty? The Uchiha's brow rose slightly as her attention fixated themselves on Thirteen despite the noise that leaked from outside. She had considered using her Ocular Prowers to gain the answers from the child but even she knew that would shatter whatever bridge she may have forged, but something was definitely off about her... So, Yuno took her shot, jumping from the ending of Thirteens answer to bring about her own.
[Company: Takuma, Kini] - [Location: Yunchi's] - [Mood: Vortex of emotions] - [Status: Healthy with a side of slight bleeding]
It had seemed that her intuition had paid off as Takuma leaned down to pick up the coin purse without a word, signaling that he knew what is was for and that she was right for assuming the cat had betrayed her. However, while she may have been able to deduce that her father was actually the one who paid for her medical fees, she wasn't able to see what was about to come. Kiyoko was completely stunned, one-hundred percent shell-shocked at the words that had started to leave their father's mouth as he scooped up the coin from the floor.
Meanwhile, in usual complete opposite fashion, Kini did what she did best, act out with violence, not usually being the one to be fazed by much. Nonetheless Kiyoko stood still with a partial dumbfounded look upon her face as if a crack had formed in one of her many masks. However, before their father could finish he was forced to stop from the attack by Kini followed by her verbal outburst which seemed to snap the older of the sibling duo back into reality. She wasn't shaking anymore, but her body language still read that she was quite tense.
Takuma and Kiyoko's gaze would been for a second time, this one before just before he started to attempt to speak for a second time almost as if he was wanting her approval to do so or maybe she was just looking to much into it, perhaps it was the same as always and he was just being wary of the one yet to act. Nonetheless this time he managed to get his full train of thought out without being interrupted and his words would have less of an impact than before, Kiyo having managed to form some sort of mental resistance to them to stop herself from freezing up again.
When Kini began to march her way forward she would find herself stuck and should she look around she would take note that Kiyo had kneeled down behind her and wrapped her arms around her. Kiyo's embrace was snug, not suffocatingly, but more comfortingly so and her head was gently resting on her younger sister's back between her shoulder blades. It was but a breath of time in the real world but Kiyoko was running through memories in her mind for what seemed like forever, times of old from just after Kini had been born. Better times.
She paused on on specific memory of when she was four, soon to be turning five and was training with their father in the back yard on one of his VERY rare off days. Back then Takuma was still as strict as ever, but he had a slightly softer approach and it was one of the few times that Kiyo had managed to do something he instructed her to do on the first attempt and she received one of his very few praises that she had gotten out of her life time.
The reason she was stuck on this memory though, was not because he had praised them, it only started her journey here, but the true purpose of this visit down memory lane was because of the silent pain and suffering that weighed on her constantly. Memories of Kiyo getting scolded and punished by their father for her failures and of Kini growing up and receiving even worse treatment flashed through her mind like an old time movie reel running out of film at the end of a movie as it became evident that she was living through a guilt trip.
Kiyoko was many things, strong in her own right, independent, charming, caring, but she was also a prisoner of her own convictions. To Kiyo, all of Kini's hardships, all of Kini's bad memories, were because of herself. If she had just managed to please their father before he could get to Kini when they were younger, then none of that would have happened. Perhaps this was part of the shackles that bound Kiyoko to her little sister, not just out of love but out of duty, the heavy burden of the older sibling. She was suppose to protect Kini, and she failed.
And yet, here their father was commending the sister's on a job well done, speaking words of praise in their name. She wanted Kini to enjoy this moment instead of see red. Kiyo would snap back to reality once more and pick up where she left off, ❝엄마는 우리가 잘되기를 원했습니다...❞ She would coo softly, as her hands gripped even tighter against her own black sleeved arms so that she didn't get blood on Kini and she could hide it. ❝부디...❞

"I Can't tell you that. I'm not allowed to ever tell anyone about a mission." The lingering hesitation that had appeared momentarily before was gone now. 13 wouldn't be won over so quickly. Her eyes were lifeless as ever. Those lifeless eyes looked up at the woman before her. "Is really true that my organisation is gone? how do you know?"
( ❃ )x▀▄xTakuma Masamune xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx𝑅𝒶𝓃𝓀: A
Progression came to a sudden stop as a force was placed against her line of path, red wasn't the only thing she could see at the moment, her frustration being released, her pent-up rage, every last bit of hatred she had for the man that stood before her needed to be released from her system one way or another. Why should she care for his half-assed apology! Why would he apologize now? Why not sooner, what reason did he have to apologize for! Did he think just praising them was enough? Did he truly think all of that would simply erase years and years of neglect! Years of harsh treatment!!
Bloodshot eyes filled up with tears as she felt her sisters grip around her... She couldn't go on with it, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't fight this gripping hold on her... Even though they were family, she had her own reason to hate the man that stood before her, yet she couldn't go through with it. She bit her bottom lip as Kiyoko's words rang through her ears, her own hands resting on the others hand. Their mother.... She had planned this hadn't she, bringing them here together to purge out whatever emotions resided within.
Kini's head lowered as the tears started to flow gently, she couldn't handle it anymore, the rushing memories and the fantasy of what could've been a seemingly perfect family and now even she wasn't sure who to blame. Herself for being incapable of becoming what her Father wished for her to be? Her Father for his shitty treatment and parenting skills? Her Mother for remotely allowing such a meeting to happen? Slowly she lifted her head, eyes filled with tears that continuously streamed down met Takuma's own calm gaze.
"Just.... I need fresh air.."
It was a lousy excuse but what else could she say? She couldn't properly process everything that was happening at the moment, she needed to do something to, at the very least, distract herself from these rushing thoughts. Had she been provided the chance to leave Kiyoko's grasp, Kini would silently make her way past Takuma who's gaze followed the young child path. He knew that it wouldn't be wise to stop her even then a part of him had hoped that this time she'll return a bit more composed than before.
With Kini having left the Shop, Takuma's eyes would drift back to Kiyoko had she stayed behind, though had she attempted to follow after Kini then Takuma would immediately stand in her path. While he was indeed proud of his children for their accomplishment, there was still something that needed to be discussed about the job they had taken. This wasn't the first time that Taio had gone out of his way to drag Demons out from the Mountain and into Fuji, they hadn't ship them to the Hospital for investigation and even the Officials weren't able to figure out what they had done with the Demons, it was likely that Taio had connections with Fuji's Police Force in order to remove any further investigation on his end... But Takuma knew well enough.
"Taio is a dangerous man..."
Takuma spoke out as he tossed the coin bag back to Kiyoko, he hadn't the need for her money, though as it stood their family really hadn't a need for financial aid with how things were set up. Takuma's own connection to the First Pirate Queen, Denki Masamune and her Crew provided them enough wealth to continue his campaign as Clan Leader. Still regardless of this, Taio was an individual that Tengu along with Takuma had been keeping a rather firm eye on recently, for him to have hired his daughters was rather risky and completely out of character for someone like him.
"While I am proud that you were both capable of defending yourself... I need to know how Taio had managed to get in contact with you and more importantly, what did he want from the two of you."
So she wasn't going to give out that easily, huh? That much should be expected for Children Military Recruits, but that brief sense of hesitation did provide some sense of hope on Yuno's end. Thirteen wasn't willing to give out information and was quick enough to discard that brief sense of presumable humanity she had expressed, she was indeed out in the blue about information regarding the world around her... But Yuno couldn't entirely be sure about what Organization she was referring to when she didn't have much to go off on to begin with.
Oculars shifted slightly, shifting between their emerald colors to a fading crimson back and forth, the faint display of three rotating comas that flowed clockwise could barely be visible before stopping after four seconds. While Thirteen brought up the question about how Yuno knew that her Organization was gone, Yuno briefly paused before responding... Truth be told she hadn't the facts to say that the child Organization was indeed dead, she hadn't a name to connect with and barely any information to go on by... But maybe...
"Raikage of Kumogakure no Sato, the remaining higher-ups and even their Jinchuriki were all sent out to fight against the unknown foreign entities that assault the Shinobi World. The remaining people were sent out here, a location specially picked by Kumogakure to ensure the survival of their people under the pretense of a Worst Possible Scenario... Fuji. Well, not everyone made it to this apparent sanctuary, it was after all a full exodus of Kumogakure, a length travel from point to point."
Yuno paused her exposition brought by narration, reaching towards one of the pictures that rested on the desk, glancing at the image with a gentle smile. An image of Kiyoko, Kini, Takuma, and herself enjoying their time at the beach, one of the rarer full-family pictures that existed.
"I was fortunate to have traveled with a rather... Selfish man, one who wasn't interested in involving his people in a War that he didn't understand... I guess what I'm saying is, there might be a possibility that your Organization existence being out there, but take that with a grain of salt... I won't be able to help return you to your Family if you don't open up."
Yuno set the image down, returning her gaze to Thirteen and interlocking eyes with the child that stood attention before her. She potentially had a few more attempts until the child started to crawl back into her shell of isolation and by then... She would have to revert to using more unfriendly methods.
13 couldn't help but take note of Yuno's eyes. A doujutsu? She'd learned about these and had seen a few. They had taught her about everything from basic ninjutsu to the most revelvant kekkei genkai. They hadn't taught her about things like families, but they'd taught her this. She'd seen a picture of that eye before. It was called the sharingan and she was never suppossed to look directly into it. She averted her eyes to Yuno's feet.
"How do you know no one is left in Kumogakure though?" She paused for a moment. She'd thought about doing this for a long time. "I have to go back there and find them." She said.
There was one more thing she'd been considering telling Yuno. Family? Is that what Yuno was calling her organization? "What is a family exactly? I want to get back... but if I told you, I would die."
Kit had begun walking down the market place in a slow fashion. He had a small headache from the strain on his eyes and the light seemed to pierce into his mind forcing him to squint slightly. Taking a small step Kit stopped and wiped small beads of sweat from his brow. "I'll need some herbs to take care of this." Looking around he saw a small stall selling a mix of bottles and mixtures along with a few salves. Making his way over to it holding his hand above his eyes Kit stepped around a smaller women to speak to the Vendor. "I'm looking for some Monk shade mixture for headache relief." Giving a quick glance at Kit he informed him that he only sold applying ointments for exposed wounds from the hospital. Quickly narrowing down that he'd need to just make it himself Kit turned from the stall and made his way once more down the street.
As for the shops he could get the herbs from there were a few flourist type shops that contained herbs. He would have to just get lucky on the Monk Shade. Seeing a spot of green catch his attention on the dusty walk path Kit narrowed his vision slightly only to find a stall selling regular flowers picked earlier in the day. After walking a few blocks and reach the familiar break point spreading through out the village Kit looked to his right. It was a familiar shop to him as he had been there on a number of occasions over the years. "Yunchi's". Tantiformally a weapon shop. They wouldn't really have the herbs Kit needed. But to under take the posting he had seen listed earlier for a mission he would need to stop by anyway and prepare for that endeavor.
Stepping quietly to the front door Kit slid it open to have the light peak through gently. There didn't seem to be anyone in the main room watching the front of house merchandise, nor an obvious caretaker or front desk person. Walking idly up to the counter Kit gave a small peer around but focusing his eyes the strain kicked in and his head began to throb in a pulsating fashion. Giving a final yet somewhat weak look around Kit gave a small sigh and took in a breath.
"I'm looking for 2 Collapsable demon wind shurikens, 5 smoke bombs, and 2 kunai." He had said it loud enough to have his voice carry to the back past the front counter. It was possible that no one was here.

[Company: Takuma, Kit] - [Location: Yunchi's] - [Mood: Vortex of emotions] - [Status: Healthy, no longer bleeding]
It seemed that Kiyo's approach to the situation had managed to halt Kini's violent intentions, the younger siibling stopping in her tracks and putting up little resistance to the embrace from her older sister. Feeling the soft touch of Kini's hands against her own made Kiyoko snuggle even more against her precious little jewel. Although her methods may have caused an ill-favored outcome, that being Kini-chan crying, it was to be expected.
As much as she wished she could comfort her sister right now, she knew it was best to let Kini sort herself straight, she surely had so much going on in her mind and Kiyo trying to console her would have been pulling the pin to the grenade if she said something wrong. Releasing the embrace, albeit hesitantly, she would let Kini walk out to deal with the hand she had been dealt while she herself simply sat slumped on the floor looking rather dejected.
Takuma would mention Taio's name and it wouldn't cause a visible change in Kiyoko, at-least not right away as she sat idly for a moment before taking a sharp inhale as she reached up and rubbed at the corner of her eyes with her thumb and middle finger as a long drawn out sigh followed suit. ❝Yeah, I know.. I don't like him.❞
Kiyoko would retort as she grabbed the coin purse before bringing herself to her feet and sorting herself out, adjusting her clothing and cleaning herself off. While Takuma's eldest child may have been giving off an air of a apathetic laissez-faire attitude no one would really know how she felt, not for some time at-least. As she was finishing up the touches to straightening out her skirt the sound of the bell from the door being opened in the other room resounded clearly throughout Yunchi's.
❝Actually, we approached him, inadvertently of course. I had just been released from the hospital and was on my way to deliver gifts to mom, as a first step to paying her back for the medical fees, that being before I figured it was you of course. However, I ran into Kini on the way there and she got excited seeing me after so long, so she decided we should do something together when Taio and his malcontent were walking by speaking openly about needing people to help with their little gathering, and you can guess what happened from there.❞
It was at this time that she gestured to the main room for her father to either do something about it with a clone or some other means or if he intended for her to go and confront the customer, seeing as Yuno was busy.

This sense allows a Masamune to detect an object or person through different methods, various studies conclude that this method is based on two things: Masamune's can sense the presence of an object through their Diamagnetic, Ferromagnetic or Paramagnetic properties, they can also sense them through their conductivity. This proves useful when locating weapons in battle. They are also capable of sensing the presence of another organism through the internal electrical signals sent throughout the body, this further increases to the ability to downright sense abnormal levels of electrical energy or just electrical energies around them which even includes Ninjutsu. Every Masamune is born with this technique and as such is capable of naturally feeling these things within a 1.5 meter radius (5ft), they are also capable of integrating chakra into this sense to further increase their sensory capabilities, utilizing this allows them to quite literally feel the very presence of an object through the electrons within, with this they are able to map out an entire area within a maximum of 60 meters (196ft).

So, in the end, his information and her own were basically the same after all, that certainly didn't aid in his position nor did it entirely provide much useful information to allow an investigation... If Taio truly wasn't doing anything of criminal intent... Takuma's brow bent inward as he continued his internal thoughts. Even if Taio was potentially behaving, he knew well enough that the Gang Leader had the potential and the willingness to act with malicious intentions.
Before Takuma had a chance to speak up, the door to the shop opened up as the boy entered in completely oblivious to the two individual present in the room, Takuma head tilted slightly towards the right as the young boy called out his order. His expression remained calm despite the strange situation that was suddenly presented to him, though he was sure that Yuno had heard the loud outcry from the boy, he was sure enough that such an action would cause her to come out in a rather irritated tone.
Takuma slowly raised his hand towards Kiyoko before he walked towards her to provide her with an opportunity to aid in his investigation. He hadn't much detail to go off on but seeing how Taio was willing to involve, who he knew was Takuma's own children, then it was likely that he was willing to further involve them when available... It was risky but he could likely use their aid to figure out what Taio is up to... The big question would be if Kiyoko would even be willing to offer her assistant, but nevertheless, it was worth trying.
"Whatever Taio is up to need to be discovered and dealt with as soon as possible, you're free to go about this on your own or with your sister, but go with caution as Taio is more than willing to put either of you in harms way."
With that said Takuma continued his way towards the young customer as he approached the lad from behind. The male slightly towered over Kit with only a twenty-seven centimeter worth of difference, the one who approached from behind had a more lax attire in comparison to what he typically tend to wear; a simple white T-shirt worn under a black and pink jacket with the various white-petal design on the sleeves, his bottom were simple black tight-jeans with what appeared to be designed choice tears towards the knee that revealed his vanilla skin, the lower attire was matched by brown boots.
Takuma gazed silently at the boy had he turned to face the male who walked up towards him from behind, his right hand ran across his platinum locks that seemingly caused his own vibrant magenta eyes to glow a bit more than usual. The male eyes drifted towards the weapons up on display, gradually eyeing what he had listed out in the order of which they were spoken.
Empressement or? No, she was knowledgeable and cautious, well it was more than obvious that whatever Organization that Thirteen worked for clearly involved some sort of combat training, the child knew well enough to avoid direct eye contact with her despite the flickering sight of her Sharingan manifestation. Yuno smiled slightly at that information, the kid was full of wonders and mystery but even that was enough to make Yuno a bit more concern than anything.
The Kid wanted to head back to Kumogakure and even had no viable knowledge of the concept of Family, whatever she was it wasn't something that a child such as her should grow up into.
"Family.... Is... Well, it's like someone special to me once said. A family doesn't end in blood; but it doesn't start there either. Family cares for you. Not what you can do for them. Family is there, for the good, the bad, all of it. They got your back... Even when it hurts. That's Family."
Yuno eyes fixed themselves on Thirteen as she spoke, shifting herself to stand straight as the sound of a voice yelling out in the Shop made its way into her Office. She wasn't entirely sure what else she could do with Thirteen aside from having her speak to Takuma, she made her way towards the door as she walked past Thirteen and offering her some last words.
"I'm not sure what sort of Organization you were stuck with... But any kind that threatens to kill you isn't one worth staying with, if they want to harm you, they'll have to go through Us"
Her eyes were fixed towards the door, the door where her Family stood behind and had Thirteen taken the chance to glance at the woman that stood beside her, one would be able to easily identify her ocular shifting in full crimson. The intricate petal-like design that spun like a pinwheel with a barely visible different pattern merged with the main one.
Yuno opened the door to her office that stood behind the L-shaped front desk, Takuma could be seen standing a few behind the young customer as he halted mid-sentence once Yuno had made her appearance. The woman wasn't entirely too short, she was roughly two centimeters taller than Kiyoko with lengthy pink hair that flowed down elegantly. While her attire didn't entirely exude "Motherly", she wore a simple large soft grey designer shirt that extended past her hips, over the shirt she wore a large black jacket, and finished things off with torn leggings that were more torn on her left leg in comparison to the right.
"Ja? I couldn't really hear ya' from back there, you wanted something?"
Yuno spoke towards Kit, her previously crimson ocular shifting back to their gentle emerald hues. Takuma made his way towards the small door that led one behind the desk, silently the taller male walked past Yuno who simply turned her head over her shoulder as Takuma walked pass, whispering words in a rather foreign dialect that was unknown to those outside the Masamune Clan.
"Don't be... Too much of yourself."
Takuma simply nodded his head in response, entering the office room and closing the door behind him. The tall male vibrant eyes shifted towards Thirteen with a silent and cold-hearted gaze, not offering his words or a greeting as he walked around and took a seat at the chair behind the desk. Masamune Clan-Leader; Pirate King leaned against the chair and finally spoke.
"It's unnecessary to stand at attention, I'm no superior to you, go ahead and have a seat, I'm sure your legs must need the rest after the day you've had."
