Kyoto Base; The Kinryuu Compound

[Doria]

Tony set there, sipping his sake, and watched while the pretty waitress walked to Hirotada's table to pass along his message. She then walked away. The Shogun drank a little more of sake, and stood up and started walking in Tony's direction.

'The guy is really very polite indeed. Even being the big boss of all this, he still gets up and comes to greet me. I expected him to send her with a message for me to aproach his table, not the contrary.' Tony was thinking. 'Maybe he is one of those rare honest characters, who is not a power hungry. We shall see...'

Tony started raising up, to greet the Shogun. Out of nowhere another Dragon came running and suddenly dropped on his knees at the Shogun's feet.

"Hirotada! We - I mean I- have been looking for you! You've caused a bit of stress within the manor."

The matter looked really serious. The poor guy was really nervous. Tony sat again and decided to wait for them to resolve their issue. After a few quick words where exchanged, the kusarian tried to calm down and rose up. He quickly bowed and left as suddenly as he had entered.

Tony then stood up again, to greet the Shogun.
