Kanon watched the shop owner as he talked about the stock he had before going back to collect what she had asked for. His point about cutting out the middle man was right, but after having been left on the cutting room floor pretty recently the idea was not that appetizing to her. If she did set up something more repeated and permanent with this island she would have to think hard about cutting him out or not, but she did have use of having someone actually on the island. She had to get the wine to the port somehow. Having him handle it meant she didn't have to make friends with all of the suppliers to get the good deals, just him. But that wasn't all that was happening. After the shop owner left them again, Kintaro's expression changed. Kanon facepalmed. ”Of course you're goofy exterior is a cover for a more serious internal personality.” Sighing she looked back up at him. ”I was honestly hoping that all of my previous animosity would give that part of you the hint that I wanted to be left alone, but you're still here.” Kanon's expression changed as well, becoming much more intimidating than when she was just trying to scare him off. ”I will tell you this once: The path you are asking to go down is a dangerous one. If you double-cross me then keeping the present curvature of your face will be the least of your worries.” She sat back, her demeanor returning to her normal business face. ”If that is clear, then I will listen to your offer.” It was kinda eerie how she able to slid in and out of such presence, but given her small stature it wasn't hard to figure out why she needed to do so. |

Well it seemed like the prospects for that extra money fell through. Kanon wrapped up her business with the store owner and went on her way, parting with Kintarou as she carefully carried a box with several bottles of wine in it down towards her small boat at the docks. The last thing she needed was for her potential profits to come crashing down so quickly. She wasn't made of money, at least not at the moment, and spending a fair amount what she had on a bit of a risky luxury item would make a failure that much more costly in the grand scheme of things. She would need to really find some good buyers, maybe in one of the other Blues, to really turn a good profit from this, but wine was the closest thing they had to a specialty after all. Getting to her boat she set the crate down and began to prepare to leave when she heard a voice from behind her. ”Hold on a minute there, miss.” For a brief moment she wondered if someone had taken offense to the fact the petals that were on her outfit where cherry blossoms, but upon turning around she saw a couple of Marines. While Awestralia was relatively neutral, the Marines were still the law and it wasn't too surprising to see a few of them around enforcing it, especially in a busy trading port like this. ”Yes, sir. What can I help you with?” Kanon asked. She had to be careful. They singled her out for some reason so she had to make sure to do nothing to seem suspicious, so like last time she decided to go along with things with a worry-less expression. “We need you to come with us, and bring that crate with you.” The talking one of the group said. Kanon nodded, retying her boat to the dock and picking the crate back up. It seemed like a routine cargo inspection. Internally she was actually relieved that she hadn't gone through with that shady deal. The Marines led her on to a Marine Ship and in to a room with some officer sitting behind a desk. He was overweight and looked like the kind of guy that spent more time ordering others around than doing anything himself. “Come in and set that thing down,” he ordered, waving her over to his desk. Kanon obliged. The Officer sat there for a moment, eyes obviously staring a bit at Kanon's chest now that the box wasn't blocking it, before one of the grunts jumped to attention and moved over, taking the lid off the box for him. He looked in investigated the box. “Peach Wine, ehh? What's with all of this then?” ”It's exactly what it looks like. Bottle of Peach Wine purchased to be transported and sold elsewhere for a profit.” Kanon said, keeping her cool as the urge to punch this guy was rising, but there was no way she was going to do so. It was far too risky and this could hopefully solved with words and not violence. “Get one out,” he said, and a grunt followed. By chance he managed to grab one of the cheaper ones and hand it to the lazy Officer who took a look at it. “Check the box,” he barked his next order while taking a look at the bottle. The Marine grunt started to measure, a bit strangely, the depth of the box with his arm in the spot the removed bottle was in, knocking on the bottom a bit. “It checks out, s-sir.” he said, obviously a bit weary of the guy himself. “No signs of a false bottom.” “I see... I see...” He set the bottle down on the table and pulled out a piece of paper, a wanted poster with Kanon's face on it. Her eyes widened in surprise, it was news to her after all. “You see, we just got in a new set of Wanter Posters and we just so happened to see someone matching one wandering around town...” He sat back in his chair. “Now, it just says you were associating with Pirates, but I could be... convinced to be a bit generous and hear you out.” ”I... understand.” Kanon replied, taking a bit of a deep breath. ”Then as a sign of good faith I will gift you that bottle of wine, one of the best in my stock.” “Ohohohoho...” He replied. “Thank you for your generosity.” Thankfully he was pretty bad at gauging wine quality, but he was still good enough to make this not technically be a bribe. ”I am a merchant as well as a carpenter. On Karate Island I encountered some people that ended up being Pirates. Once this was revealed to me I assisted the local Marines by directing them towards where they landed on the island. I can only assume that my assistance went unreported to an Officer on the scene leading to this wrongful bounty assignment.” “Ah... I see, I see...” He said, thinking for a moment. “Well then, I'll have to see about whoever made that mistake and... graciously correct it for them...” The Officer was probably more concerned about making other Marines owe him more than one girl with a box full of wine. After all, he had already gotten the best out of her and he couldn't push much more without it actually being a bribe at this point. “I'll see to it that you're name is cleared. You're free to go.” Kanon nodded, ”Thank you,” before closing her box back up and leaving, being escorted out and back to her boat. Thankfully she had managed to get him to accept one of her cheaper bottles as one of the more expensive so that didn't hurt her too much, but losing profit before even leaving the island was not the best of things to happen. Once she got back, she finally got ready and set sail in her small boat, happy to leave such a “peachy” island. |

Thank you for your patience. Your storyline has been reviewed.
Kanon's small bounty has been removed after the Marine officer enjoyed his small bribe and reported the misunderstanding to the bounty office. No item on an incomplete. |
