Characters: Yuuta meitori, Naruto ramen4free
When: December 1
Where: At the side of the river
Rating: PG?
Summary: Yuuta and Naruto plan to go across the river for some salt and other ghost fighting things.

Yuuta waited quietly at the side of the river, hoping that Naruto would be able to get back soon. He was a little nervous about going across the river, given the things people had been telling him across the network. If any of that was true, then maybe it wasn't such a good idea to go there, even for salt to fight against spooks and all that.

Well, maybe they wouldn't notice. He was good at sneaking around, and Naruto had said that he had been there a few times already.

He reached the building and stopped to pull open the door and motion Yuuta in. It was a bit on the small size, but big enough to have a decent amount of aisles full of stuff. He strolled up and down a few aisles before spotting the salt.

He grabbed a bag of it and took off towards Yuuta. "Hey, I found some. This is what you need right?" Behind him the shop keeper turned towards them and gave him an annoyed look.

i am so sorry i have been sick! D8

Yuuta looked over at the package. Ah, kosher. That would be even better, seeing as there are no added preservatives to it and from the information on the back, it was derived from sea water rather than a mine.

"Yes, this will do." He said. Going up to the counter, he put the salt on it along with his books. "My friend and I have been traveling for a while, and don't have any money on us. Could we trade perhaps? I could also work to pay for this."

Naruto leaned on the counter next to Yuuta, watching the proceedings in case they need to make a break for it. He didn't like how the shop keeper was looking at them; as if they were people from the moon and if they made so much as a sudden movement he'd attack them.

The shop keeper crossed his arms and stared hard at Yuuta before slowly nodding. "Depends. What do you have to trade?"

sorry this is late!

"I have books, which you could probably sell. They're in good condition. Like I said, I could also work to pay for it. I am not opposed to any chores."

Yuuta didn't quite like how this was going, even though nothing had happened yet. The gazes and stares, and how the shopkeeper was regarding them with suspicion... They might just have to forget about the salt and get out of here if he didn't accept the payment.
