There's always someone...
Miki cursed a bit under his breath as he emerged into the cool night air of the courtyard. He hunched his body a bit in a vain effort to protect the warmed tempura he was to deliver.
Blasted entitled so-and-so's sending for snacks in the middle of the sodding night. When am I going to be able to get some sleep?
His lantern bobbed as he hurried down the path, a solitary firefly, until he reached the door of the Minor Clan House.
He knocked softly. "Food service, Samurai-samas, compliments of Lord Ikoma's kitchens..."

"Oh, wonderful!" came the deep voice approaching from the other side of the door. "I've been famished ever since the reception."
The door opened to reveal a blocky man of considerable size and no neck wearing the mons of the Tortoise.
"I thought they'd have real food at the reception, but it was just those little..." He looks down, seeing Miki for the first time. "hors...d'oeuvres..." His gaze darkens.

Miki looks up at the change in tone, his brows raising in question, when he sees it.
Oh, shit.. He shifted his weight to his front foot, thinking to launch himself backwards and get a running start on this guy.

...But it was much too late. The big Kasuga's meaty right hand comes down hard on Miki's head, while his left seizes him by the shoulder.
There is a solitary squeak of quiet pain from Miki before he is twisted in the Kasuga's arms, back to the burly chest, the arms already shifting to capture his head in a deadly hold as his feet leave the ground and he disappears into the delegation house.

About three minutes later, the burly Kasuga appears once more at the open door, stretching out a kink in his shoulder.
He surveys the courtyard, slowly, for witnesses. Nothing. Good.
He reaches down, picks up the lantern, blows it out. Guess you're going with him
Oh! My tempura!
He picks up the package, a little beaten up. Stepped on a little.
Hunger is a sweet sauce, Kasuga Brandao decides. He turns back to the Tortoise section and closes the door behind him.
