The bath house bombings

Bomb in the Bath House:

Heroshi was having a good day learning a few new jutsu and helping who he could throughout the village. He had dressed in some lose fitting clothes, he still didn’t have much money to go out and buy anything too extravagant for himself, but he was working his way there. He had managed to save up a little bit of Ryo from his last few missions, but he was still not able to afford the nice things that a lot of other shinobi had. He needed a few scrolls to put some fuuinjutsu on and some armor to protect himself from weapon attacks would be nice, but he wouldn’t be able to afford all that for a handful more missions. Heroshi was okay with this, he had short and long term goals to accomplish, and armor and scrolls, were his short term goals. He was looking around the market just window shopping looking at all the things he couldn’t afford when he got shewed away by a shop keep because he wasn’t going to buy right that instant, and he was taking up too much room. Heroshi would oblige and leave, he wasn’t there to cause problems. Heroshi would look through a few more shops and get quite depressed about his financial situation. He would go out and earn his gear the old fashioned way, manual labor.
He was headed through the market district looking for work, and being turned down by just about every shop in the district. He was about to call it a quits when he found a lost child. The child was crying in a relatively secluded place. Heroshi approached him cautiously, “Hey buddy, are you lost?” Heroshi would ask gently. “My name is Heroshi, and I’m here to help.” The child would whimper and tell Heroshi that he was lost, and he needed help finding his family. Heroshi would figure out their names and would take the boy around asking if he saw them, or if anyone knew who his parents were. Soon after he started Heroshi found out that the child’s parents owned a property near a bath house, but they weren’t sure if it was in Hoshigakure or some other village. Heroshi would ask the child if this was true, and the boy nodded. “Why didn’t you say so?” If we can find your house you can stay there until they come home.” Heroshi smiled at the child, “See, I told you I could help you.” Heroshi lead the child towards the bath house he thought would be near the child’s house.
Upon arrival at the bath house Heroshi would feel a tug at his pants, “Heroshi, this is not the bath house by where I live.” The child would say starting to whimper again. “Don’t you worry yourself, you’re with me, remember?” Heroshi would ask with a smile, “We’ll figure it out, promise.” Heroshi told the boy with a thumbs up. “Okay we’ll ask a few people around here if they know your family.” Heroshi would walk up to a group of people and ask if they knew about where the child’s family lived or if they knew them. The group didn’t but they informed Heroshi there was only one other bath house in Hoshigakure that it could be as the rest were in the market and didn’t have any family dwellings near it. Heroshi was elated with the news. As long as this kid lived inside Hoshigakure. That thought started to creep into his head, no, the child had to be from Hoshigakure, and Heroshi would find them. Heroshi and the child left the bath house and headed towards the remaining bath house in question.
Heroshi would recall a time when he got separated from his father in the market district and the anxiety and fear he would experience, his dad blamed him for getting lost and he got in trouble for it. He remembered it was a cold winter day, he can remember it being grey as if it was in black and white, but he knew there were colors in the canvas of life while he was in it, the rain that fell that day was so dense it was like a fog over the whole village. That’s probably why he remembers it as black and white and grey. He remembered how time went by really slow and he must have ran up and down every where and felt like he had seen the same vendor twenty times. How when he was finally found by a shinobi he was so relieved. They also knew his dad so they were able to take him home. That’s where he had received his punishment. Heroshi hoped his circumstances would vary drastically than the child’s.
As they approached the bath house there was a group of people around it, the child excitedly screamed, “Mom dad!” as he broke free from Heroshi’s grip and ran at full speed to his mom and dad. They were so happy to have their child back, they thought the kid had run home from the market, that’s why they were already there. They thanked Heroshi and he informed them that it was his pleasure to help them and their child, and he would be on his way, as Heroshi looked back at the family he brought back together he felt the warmth of pride enter his face as he was blushing and his whole body felt that ecstatic feeling. He really enjoyed helping the people of Hoshigakure. He was starting to get a little hungry, maybe ramen would be a good lunch. He thought as he started back to the market.
“Excuse me, Excuse me!” Heroshi would hear coming from behind him, a little man about five foot five inches tall would run up to Heroshi from the bath house. “I’m sorry to bother you, but are you the one the Hogokage sent?” He breathed his words heavily in between giant grasps for breath. “I’m sorry, I am not, but if time is of the essence, I can do whatever in my ability to help.” Heroshi would assure the man that was still gasping for air. “Want to show me what the issue is?” Heroshi would ask looking around and making sure his surroundings were safe. “Yes, walk with me?” The man would ask as he started a slow walk back to the bath house as he slowly regained his breath. “I received a letter last night, here it is.” He said handing over a small piece of paper with words scribbled on it. “We have only three more hours to give them the ransom or they’ll blow up our bath house, this bath house has been in my family since the creation of this village, before shinobi, before really anything, this bath house has been here.” The man would say. “I already have someone inside taking care of the paper bombs in there, she’s really quite amazing actually, but I need you to dispose of the paper bombs outside and do it quickly, I don’t want them to catch wind that we’re getting rid of their bombs.” The man would tell Heroshi as he opened the letter. “I’ll take care of it.” Heroshi said as he looked at the letter. “Give us 500,000 Ryo by tomorrow 3pm, or we’ll blow up your bath house, we don’t want to blow up our next building, but we don’t mind rebuilding.” The note would say. Heroshi saw that handwriting earlier that day, it was from the bath house he had taken the child to before he came to this one.
Heroshi studied the side of the building, whoever put these paper bombs up were meticulous in their design, one false cut of a tag would have little bits of Heroshi falling out of the sky. Heroshi took his kunai and began slowly and methodically cutting the tags off the side of the building. Heroshi didn’t know how fast he could cut down five hundred tags and was wishing there was a faster way, when he thought to himself, Shadow clone. Heroshi would perform the hand seals for his shadow clones to spring forth to life, they all covered different sides of the building to remove the paper bombs. When Heroshi was done outside it had only taken him a grand total of about five minutes with his shadow clones help. Heroshi would let the man know he was done removing the paper bombs from outside the building, and he would go chase down the culprit. Heroshi headed to the other bath house where he found the owners. “Which one of you wrote this letter?” He asked has he flashed the letter in front of them, “What?” They would say almost in unison but what gave it away was the wife had looked at the husband while the husband kept looking at him. “Well, a threat on someone with paper bombs is an act of espionage and subterfuge, I can take you both in, or one of you can admit to fault.” Heroshi would say as the woman was about to shout some objection, the man hung his head down. “Alright sir, it was me.” He would say, Heroshi would subdue the man and take him into custody.” Well, you weren’t the shinobi we had in mind for this mission, but you did well kid.” Said the man behind the counter in the administration building. “Job well done.”
