The following day as everyone packed their stuff tension could be felt in the air. Well, the three girls were as relaxed as ever. Yamato on the other hand was discretely observing Tazuna while the latter felt down. A few minutes later Yamato was the first to break the silence.

“So, Tazuna, mind explaining why a pair of Kiri-nin are after you?”

“Why are you so sure they are after me?” Tazuna tried to play the fool but he was talking to a trained ninja, of course that wouldn’t work.

“Because, out of all of us you are the most probable target-” Before Yamato could continue though Tomoka decided to interrupt. She didn’t feel like going through this whole interrogation stuff.

“Sorry for the interruption sensei. However, I believe I know the reason. You see, a man named Gatoh has quite the monopoly in the land of waves. If mister Tazuna builds his bridge then said monopoly will be threatened by the new trade route.” Hearing Tomoka’s words, Tazuna couldn’t help but pale. It was over.

“Hey, if it makes you feel any better you could paint it as a lesson or something. After all, plans and missions could always go awry.” Hianata knowing how troublesome dealing with Tomoka could be tried to make Yamato feel better.

“Did either of you know about this beforehand?” Hearing Hinata Yamato felt like he had been the only one out of the loop, something he really didn’t like.

“Nope, Tomoka told us last night.'' Nozomi said, telling a half truth.

With a loud sigh Yamato looked towards the girls before speaking “I take it you three want to continue with the mission then.” With a simple nod Yamato knew he didn’t have any other option. Yes, he could force them to go back but he would rather not deal with the constant nagging and complaining.

“Then we shall continue with the mission. Take into consideration there won’t be any extra payment.” He knew they didn’t really care about payment but he still had to make that clear.

“Also, you should thank them Tazuna, if it were up to me we would be abandoning this mission.” With that they once more began walking towards the land of waves.
