Those dull red eyes that resembled the color of wine stared back at herself from the reflection that stood before her. The scarlet locks of her hair was pulled back into a ponytail of braids, once again the kunoichi found herself adoring the hairstyle of a savage. With the few silver ornaments that intertwined through the braids, many would find the hairstyle alluring and wouldn't even notice the bandit like aesthetic of it.

With skilled fingers, ones that didn't have to be as dainty and delicate, the woman swept her eyes with a sort of power that resembled the color of charcoal. Darkening her lids and beneath her outer line with a shadow like illusion. Making her wine eyes pop even more.

Kana continued to gaze into the mirror's reflection, taking the time to examine the image of what she saw. Before taking one of her pointed fingers to the corner of her mouth, her nail slid between her lips as she pulled down slightly. Revealing the curve of her fangs to the mirror, as if she was revealing her dark secret to her own reflection.

Her lips didn't curve into a smile. Instead she turned away from the mirror. The Kyuketsuki was quite done looking at herself. She never was a big fan of looking into the mirror anyways. Not being the type that was fond of admiring oneself.

It wouldn't be long afterwards that the red haired Kyuketsuki was heading out the door and towards the direction of her goal. Wearing a slim dress that hugged her form like a promise, and stockings that did wonders to compliment it.

Her thoughts silently went over the plans that she had organized within her mind. The plans to make sure that her goal was a success without the need to put in unnecessary efforts. The walk there would give her about ten minutes to reasure herself and to gather up the game plan. All she needed to do was wine and dine. It was simple, and something that she was already accustomed to. It wasn't the first time the kunoichi had been on a dinner date. She recalled the time a while back when she had first came to Tanbogakure. The dinner that she had with the young man, who possessed the long blonde hair.

Kana had greatly enjoyed the time she had with that man. It was a shame that they hadn't ran into each other much since then.

But either way. . this was a different sort of situation. She wasn't going on a fancy date to enjoy herself with the company of another. No. . she probably wouldn't be enjoying this much at all. Not until the task was completed and without fail. Not until she left with the treasure.

Kana couldn't deny that her morals leaned more towards the decency side, but that didn't change the nature of what she truly was. A broke bitch who needed ways to get her hands on some ryo, and a little fun. And when the perfect opportunity came around and presented itself to her Kana couldn't just stand back and deny it.

The man from the last morning had came from around the corner so suddenly, that Kana was almost certain that he had been following her around. It wasn't exactly a clever idea to be stalking an abnormal ninja, but of course the man wouldnt have known that. He had presented her with a proposal to a night out at his fancy place, with a promise to a fancy bottle of bourbon and wine. And when she had seen the watch that glistened from his wrist, Kana accepted his offer.

She wasn't doing this for the intent of being mercilessly greedy. Her decision was more made up with the intentions of being karma herself. Since she had learned from many of the women around that this young man, who was always flashy with his expensive gadgets and quirky smile, was never up to any good. He was a pushy fellow who's greed was never satisfied by the little things, and money to him was nothing except to buy him some entertainment every now and then.

So here she was, making her way for this planned out dinner date that wasn't going to be going at all like he hoped for. One of his precious treasures will end up within her grasp and Kana would be walking away with a big grin on her face.

That is . . if everything goes as she had planned.

The building that the young man described to her soon came within view. It was one of those old fashion looking cottages but structured out of red oak. Large paned windows made the place look even more massive and no doubt made the inside seem much more open with all the wonderous sunlight to spill in. Kana could envision herself against the side of that window, gazing up at the moon on a nice cloudless night. But some fantasies was best to only be imagined.

The kunoichi didn't hesitate, instead she continued her way up to the steps, before landing a knock against the wooden door. Of course not long after she had made her presence known at the doorsteps, the door was opened by the man from before.

His eyes glanced over her attire with obvious hungry eyes, little did he know her appetite was much bigger than his. "I'm so glad that you was able to find your way here!" He moved aside to allow Kana entrance. His lips broke into a grin.

Kana followed him carefully into the place and noticed that they was heading to what seemed to be the dining area. Which of course was massive. A large table that spread to about ten feet in width was centered within the room, with a fancy maroon rug underneath it. The table was lined with silverware, fancy china with rims of what looked like gold, and vases that held lilac orchids. It was a gorgeous sight to behold, and probably one of the most fanciest places Kana had been in. It was a shame that bo matter how many years that she has lived, her life didn't hold such extraordinaries.

The young man, Kana recalled that his name was Lucas, offered one of the seats to her before went around and took the one that was positioned right across from herself. At least for the moment she would have some space to herself.

Kana settled into her seat before drawing herself a little closer to the table in front. Her eyes scanned the marvelous place and noticed the chandelier up above. It was designed as an old fashion one of metal and ivory. It all was so much to take in at once. Every where she looked, Kana was met with another infatuating discovery. She could never grow tired of this place. What a shame that her visit would be so shortly lived.

It only took him moments to bring out two bottles of wine and a glass of golden bourbon. Drawing her attention away from the rook itself and all of it's fancies. "I wasn't sure what you'd prefer more. So I brought out a bottle of white wine and red plum wine." He explained himself while settling back into the chair acrossed from her. Four glasses was set out within their reach. Two for each other. One was a wine glass and the other was a short glass that was chilled to the touch for the bourbon.

Kana wondered to herself if this man really did put in so much work for each date he offers. Apparently this Lucas invited a young woman out as least twelve times within a moon cycle. Even thought Kana did find herself enjoying frisky company every now and then, she was surprised by the news that each time it was always a different woman for him.

"I'd take a glass of the plum wine, if you don't mind." Kana gave her answer with a soft smile upon her lips. Of course she preferred the red.

Lucas pulled the cork from the bottle and tipped it to the corner of both wine glasses. "Ah~ a woman with the taste of sweetness over the dry bitters." He chuckled as if that was amusing news before raising his glass as a toast. Kana matched his movements, although waiting until she saw him swallow before daring to actually consume any of it it.

"I must say~ you have a very gorgeous place. I can't imagine missing out on a night like this." Kana spoke as if of all innocence. No doubt that her words raised his confidence.

They continued on with the drinking, and soon a plate of different sorts of cheese and grapes was brought out with crackers. Kana helped herself to the delicacies, making a comment about how the sweetness of the grapes complimented the creamy slices of cheese.

It wouldn't be much longer that the kunoichi would need to keep up this false act. Here she was acting like a fool for a fool. But she did it with full awareness of what she was doing, and with full intentions.

By the end of this night, the man will see himself as the fool he really was. and perhaps he would hesitate to invite so many mysterious beauties to a glories wine and dine. Oh~ he was lucky that Kana only planned on walking out with a piece of treasure and not with a bite as well. She could be dining on him instead.

But lucky for Tanbogakure, the red haired vixen was doing her best to sustain her urges. The village had housed her for so long that it would be a spit in the face if she went around drinking their civilians dry. Especially since the authorities has died down so much. Kana still wasn't going to be the one to take advantage from what she was given.

It was no secret that her morals was a little twisted and confused.

An hour must have passed but to Kana it felt like forever. No matter how much wine she drank, she knew that her real thirst could never be quinced. Instead she must slow down before it turned bad. Her sips grew smaller and the night grew darker.

"I wonder what sort of job a woman as yourself does for a living." Lucas commented on his curious thoughts. Oh wouldn't he like to know the honest truth. But Kana didn't speak that outloud.

"Maybe I'll give you a hint the next time your with me." She responded with instead, while knowing very well that the two of them will never meet again.

He grinned at her response, obviously enjoying the mysteries and secrecy. His cheeks were beginning to flush with a hint of red. "Well~ would you like to see one of my collections? I have many things that can awe your expression." Kana continued to entertain him as she mouthed the words 'of course'.

Anything to get him away from the table. And that seemed to do the trick.

Lucas quickly stood from his chair, almost stumbling over it from drunkenness before he quickly corrected himself. "I'll be right back then. It will only take me a few moments to get it.-" And then he disappeared from the room.

Kana wasted no time. As soon as she was certain that he had left the perimeter, and the sounds of his shoes ceased, she quickly rose from her own seat. Her movements was silent like a predator in stealth as her form moved over to a glass case that stood at the far corner of the room. Her eyes didn't even need to confirm what she wa looking for, Kana wa already full aware that it was there within the case. She pulled a silver key out from between her bosoms, the key that she had snagged off of him the very first time they've met. It was a surprise that he didn't notice it missing. Kana unlocked the latch and pocketed the item that was inside, before she quickly relocked the latch for shits and giggles and returned to her chair.

Lucas took another three minutes before he returned to the dining room, his arms carrying a heavy brown box with a leather casing. "Sorry for the wai- "

Kana suddenly interrupted him by accidentally knocking her glass of wine over. But of course it wasn't really on accident.

The scarlet liquid spilled all over the tablecloth and surely was going to leave a stain. No doubt it would look much like a blood stain after it was washed. If he even bothered to wash it at all. Someone like him would probably just throw it out and get a new one anyways.

"My goodness!" Her words still coated with the false innocence of an arrogant, harmless lamb. "I do apologize~ I must have gone too far with the wine." Her lies was so convincing as Kana noticed the meager glint in his eyes. It drowned out his surprised expression. Kana quickly gathered herself up like a damsel in distress, "Once again I'm so sorry. I believe I must head out. My gown is stained from the wine and it's an embarrassed." She coo'ed like a soft dove.

Lucas opened his mouth to say something but was too late as Kana made her way out the door. She didn't go right into the direction of her place instead she went on until she was certain that he never even followed her out the door.

Then with a swift movement of her hand, Kana brought the golden necklace from within her gown. An amulet dangled from the chain and glistened like a live fire. He didn't know her name and wouldn't dare to seal her out again unless he wanted her fangs in his throat. No doubt this necklace would go for a fetchy price. [exit and mission completion]
