Ayame Hanakora left the Kusakage’s Tower and made her way to the edges of Kusa. The unfurled scroll blocked her sight as she continued to walk, using her hearing to find her way and keep herself from hitting villagers instead of sight.
A frown crossed her face as she read the report on the man. Elderly lawyer lives on the outskirts of town with his wife, that was all fine but two things baffled the Hanakora. The fact that he detested med-nin, and the fact that, even though a med-nin had looked him over, they couldn’t tell what was wrong with him. The girl rolled up the scroll and secured it with the black band that had held it together originally.
She hummed softly as she passed through the central part of town. According to the med-nin the affliction was found mostly in his lungs. Ayame cast her thoughts to local herbs that might help the man since he apparently only approved of all natural methods. Lungwort came to mind. Though she knew the plant was difficult to find she was fairly sure the Hanakora Greenhouses held some.
She passed through the town, casting glances at everyone she passed. It was strange to think of those people, living quiet lives, never having to train jutsus or go on missions. It may make some ninjas second guess themselves but Ayame was loyal to her village.
Finally she reached the outskirts of town. She followed the pathway that supposedly led to the lawyers house. She knew her mission here was to find a cure for whatever was ailing the man. However this wasn’t something she had done before. It couldn’t be too difficult though, not for a Hanakora. She knew herbs well and how they reacted together, knowing that would be a good basis for trying to cure an illness.
There it was, in the distance stood a beautiful house surrounded by a well-cared for garden. “Well if that doesn’t prove he’s fond of organic things I don’t know what does.” Ayame told herself as she approached the house. She took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Someone coughed harshly inside. The door swung open soundlessly revealing an aging man with a tissue held up to his mouth. “What do you want?” The man demanded before turning to cough into his tissue once again.
Ayame winced, she could hear the cough tearing at his lungs. “Uhm, excuse me sir, I was sent here by the Kusakage-“
”Get out!” The man exclaimed, his body seemed to shake with rage. “I don’t want to see another one of you idiotic med-nin and your “Healing Jutsus.””
Ayame coughed slightly. “Uhm, sir, please, I’m not a medic. I’m an herbalist, from the Hanakora clan.”
The man stopped and looked over her with a critical eye. “Is that so… then by all means come in girly! My name is Fumihiko Daichi. And this is my wife Eri.” The man said as he waved his hand towards a plump women well into her fifties.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you Fumihiko-sama, Eri-sama.” Ayame bowed to the pair before her.
”Call me… call me…” a violent cough tore from the lawyers chest. He quickly brought the tissue to his mouth.
Ayame watched in horror as red stains blossomed over the tissue. “This is bad,” Ayame said quietly.
Daichi’s coughing began to ebb. He cleared his throat and sighed. “I’m sorry I didn’t ask your name did I?”
”Oh! I’m Ayame Hanakora. It’s nice to meet you.” Ayame said hurriedly.
”The pleasure is mine Hanakora-san. So tell me, do you think you can cure me?” The man asked with hopeful eyes.
In truth Ayame did not know what she could do for this man, but the look in his eyes showed her that he was placing his faith in her. And she was determined not to let him down.
”Well let’s take a look at you.” She said with a smile.
