It was a normal day on Toroa Island, sunny with a light breeze and not too much had happened. Max Kumayoshi was sleeping on the branch of a tree behind an enormous house. It was a break from him pirate hunting, after all; all work and no play makes max an angry bear.
"Need to do this more often...feels beary good" he said as he rolled a little, careful not to fall and then opened his eyes.
In front of him there was a lady coming out of her house, fear struck in her face as she looked around. In the shadow of the tree Max crouched looking at her.
Suddenly a couple of men appeared, black siuts and black glasses, one was really fat and the other really thin. They started talking to the old woman to which she gave an enormous bag of money. The men smiled and taking the money they left leaving the lady crying.
Max raised an eyebrow and felt a warm feeling on his heart. "Damn feeling, are you gonna kick now?! now?! no! come one she's fine!" he spoke to himself and finally, with a reluctant look on his face he went down toward the old lady.
"Uhm..ex-excuse me, Ma'am?" He said not believing what he was gonna do right now. The woman looked up towards him, wiping the tears of her face.
"Oh I'm sorry you have to see me like this young man..."she said trying to gather herself up. "What can I do for you". He looked at the crying lady and sighed. "Is everything ok?" he asked looking as concerned as he could. "Yes yes...its just that these men come everyday to my house and ask me for ridiculous amounts of money, if I don't pay they will burn the town. I don't want to be responsible for such a disaster so I have nothing else I can do...unless there wa some kind of strong young man that could help me" she said looking at Max.
He looked at her and rolled his eyes and then sighed again. "Okay...where can I find these men?" he asked concerned. "Well they move really fast, their base is really up in the mountains, you can find them there. They have some type of foretress, I hope this is not an issue"
He looked at the mountain and tried to comb his hair a bit with his hand. "I'll get going..." but before he left she grabbed his hand and smiled saying "Thank you, I'll give you a nice reward when you return"
Max kept on walking and yawned a little, he needed some honey.
