Sadao was interrupted by a shinobi coming from the Hokage's home, " the Hokage wants to see you for a mission." Sadao grunted, and turned into the direction of the Hokage's home. When he arrived there he was told that a thief was in the village, and was stealing jewerly, and other fine goods from local homes, and shops. Next he was told that he only steals at night, and he has patterns of where he is stealing. They told him that tonight he was going to steal from a jewelry store on the east side of the village. Finally Sadao was warned about his skill in using a knife, and that he had stabbed a man in the leg before. This made him feel scared and uneasy. He left the Hokage's office, and at the time it was mid-day. He decided that he had to go his home, and get ready. Sadao sprinted his way home. When he entered his house he speed walked into his room, and started to grab his things. He grabbed his brass knuckles, and threw on his jacket, because it was going to get cold outside at night. Sadao waited till 10:00 pm, because he knew that most likely the thief was going to rob the store when everyone was sleeping. Sadao opened the door, and felt the cold air hit his face. He directed him self east, and jumped onto the roof and started to run in that direction. Sadao kept up high so he could see everything on the east side.
It was about 12:30 pm, and Sadao heard a window break. He quickly jumped uo to his feet, and ran to the direction that he had heard the window break. No doubt about it it was the thief. It was an average sized man, he had long black hair, fairly flimsy arms, and a bushy mustache. Sadao slowly approached the jewelry store. He made sure not to make a noise, because he didn't know whats up this guys sleeve. Sadao slowly, and quietly climbed down the pipe on the side of the building. One of his hands slipped off the pipe, and he was hanging 10 feet from the ground. Sadao went into a state of shock, and was thinking that if he had fell off the side of the wall he would have failed his mission, and maybe even be killed. Sadao shook his head, and with all of the strength in his arm pulled his torso toward the pipe. He grabbed the pipe, and continued his way down the wall. The thief was looing the opposite direction from Sadao when he had made it to the ground. The thief was snatching the jewelry, and wasn't paying attention to anything besides putting the jewelry into the bag. Sadao tip toed his was slowly to the broken window of the store, and made sure not to make any noise. There was pieces of glass everywhere. Sadao's body was trembling, step by step he inched his way towards the broken window. When he reached the window, he had to step around the glass so it wouldn't make noise. First foot, second foot, first foot, ... Crack! Sadao stepped on a peice of broken glass. The thief quickly turned around with the sharp blade in his hand. Sadao jumped back, the tip of the blade skimmed his jacket, cutting it. Sadao put up his fists with his spiked brass knuckles on. The thief lunged towards Sadao attempting to slash his face. Sadao was quick enough to block his knife with his brass knuckles. Both of their hands were shaking, then the thief dropped the bag, and threw a punch at Sadao's stomach. Sadao grabbed the thief's fist and now Sadao's life was at stake. "What do you want?" He thief said while catching his breath. " You've been stealing from stores, and people, and I cant let that happen." "Well then, how bout this!" The thief pulled back his knife, and went for a blow right in Sadao's chest. The blade slowly moved towards Sadao's chest. Sadao's hand went strait towards the blade, before it could strike his heart. Sadao grabbed the blade, his hand was dripping with blood and trembling. " I'm not dying today," Sadao kicked the thief in the chest. He lost his breath, and let go holding his stomach with both hands. The thief had dropped the blade. Now it was Sadao's chance. Sadao grabbed the blade with is uncut hand, and rammed into the thief with the side of his shoulder. The thief's back striked the jewelry display. Sadao could see he was in pain. The thief pushed back Sadao throwing him off balance. Sadao fell onto the floor, and this was not a good situation. Sadao dropped the knife when he fell, and the thief walked up to it in pain, and grabbed the knife. "Today you will die." The thief smirked. The thief went full on, with both hands holding onto the knife, and sent it towards Sadao's stomach. Chink!, The blade was bent, when the thief tried to kill Sadao he rolled away from the blade and it struck the store floor. Sadao jumped up to his feet. The thief was in shock, and was looking at Sadao with his mouth wide open. Sadao started to send chakra into his clenched fist. The thief's knife was useless, and all he had were his hands. Sadao took a deep breath and ran toward the man. In shock the man couldn't move, and Sadao's fist was 1 cm away from his chest. Right when sadao's fist touched the thief's chest, he remembered to release a controlled burst from his fist. The man was sent flying back into the was. A slight amount of blood came out of his mouth. The thief passed outdue to the extreme amount of pain he was hoing through. Sadao grabbed the man and threw him over his back, and carried him back to the Hokage's office.
