Otokage's shop stood on the edge of the village, right across the street from his house. On the front of the shop was a large sign that said in large, bold kanji: "Mane Mart". The translation was written under the name in a handwriting far different from the one that had written the kanji.
Upon entering the store, the first thing the average ninja would notice was the well-polished weaponry that sat on hooks around the wall, small labels and price tags next to them. In the center of the store was 5 shelves forming 6 aisles, 4 between themselves and 2 between the shelves and the wall. On the first shelf was various weaponry, much cheaper than the swords and and other weapons on the wall, but still of a good quality. On the other side of the shell was weapons such as kunai and shuriken, along with a few more bizarre throwing weapons. On the second shelf wsa stacks and stacks of jutsu scrolls on one side and martial arts scrolls on the other. One shelf had all the different types of restoratives and antidotes while the last shelf was covered in every variety of paper bombs. At the back of the store was a door that was marked "Anbu Only" and a very strong odor of alcohol came out of it. The store was managed by one of Otokage's friends from when he lived in leaf who had failed the ninja exam, Kagami Katerina.
Katerina walked out of the store and put up the "Open" sign, then went ain and sat at the checkout counter as she waited for customers.
((all rp posts by me will be Katerina unless said otherwise))

Westly looked to the kanji, then to the translation, then back to the kanji, confused out of his wits. "Kai," he tried, but the sign didn't change or disappear. He kept trying to read it.
"Dragon Marketplace... Imitation Market? Or is it... Mane Market... like a... lion's mane? I think eastern-style dragons have manes..."
Westly entered the store, browsing the shelves. "Standard weaponry," he murmured softly, "available at Hephaetus's shop for comparable prices under a better-known brand. Ninja Scrolls and paper bombs... available at Wal-Mart for absurdly low prices. Antidotes and patent medicine... alright, fair enough, the village doesn't exactly have an apothecary, I should've thought of that myself.... Still, this doesn't seem to be enough to qualify as a unique store. With so few shops around already, why compete when you could..."
Westly's gaze continued over to the door marked "ANBU Only". He sniffed. An odd smell hit him.
Turning on his heels, he walked straight out the door.
This is the front business for a brothel, he concluded, walking away as fast as he could.

Katerina snickered as the young ninja ran out the door.
I probably should have labeled that better...
She walked to the door in the back of the shop and took a bucket of paint and a brush out of the back room, then changed the wording on the door.
Advanced weaponry and scrolls, must have anbu approval.
Free sake for Anbu and above ninja.
