"It was an accident a few years ago...our sons were playing in the spa and Lu here accidentally broke something that belonged to a visitor...it was an expensive piece, he was very angry and had tried to hurt Lu, instead our oldest punched him in the face....now, things are the way they are because that man made sure we got little to no customers anymore..." The husband sighed "We've tried everything we could think of....our last resort is selling it and its come to that sadly..."

Now Rhys was really frowning now, his temper bubbling just below his skin. "What?" He demanded, golden eyes flashing red for a moment. "That's insane! Didn't you go to the authorities? This is completely unethical. He tried to hurt a little kid!" Rhys babbled, motioning to Lu.
"I'll do something about this," he promised.

The 'wife' smiled "I had a feeling youd be like this...we're iffy about selling the spa as its been in the family so long on my side but I figure if selling needs to be done then Id want it to be someone who would actually care, and no, our story is not fake, sadly its very true" He sighed.
The husband nodded "Yes...but in any case he did, the space authorities were under his influence sadly, if it werent for the family doctor our oldest son would have been somewhere for punching the man"

"Oh fu--" Rhy eyed Lu, "--fudge brownies." He amended, rubbing a hand over his face. "I really do want to buy this spa, however, I don't want to buy it from people who are obviously being forced to sell. I'll take a look into the guy who's blackmailing you. I promise to fix this."

"Its fine, im happy knowing its with someone who cares, the only one whose not really pleased is Chibon, he has his reasons though, we live in the connected area to the spa" He pointed to a fenced off house with a decent yard and such "We've done what we could to get business back, if it takes someone else to do so then its fine, as long as we keep our home" The smaller male smiled, walking off with Lu, most likely to go feed the child.
The Father looked to Rhys "As is stands you only have a few workers left here, the cleaning crew mainly but they arent necessarily what youll need...so really that leaves only one worker...."

"I see." Rhys replied, carding his fingers through his hair as he thought about what he was going to do. Either way, the blackmailer was going to have to go down if the spa would see any more business again. "And who is the only other worker if I buy this place?"

"I believe youll be able to stop him...if i had tried anything it would have put a strain on my family most of all, and i will not risk that, especially with a young one on the way" He sighed himself "Either way the only surviving worker is my son, Chibon...hes a bit of a handful but he means well and does his job right and with passion"

"Well, I guess one worker is better than nothing." Rhys replied, though couldn't help but grimace a bit. "And believe me, I will stop your blackmailer. In the meantime though, is your son around? I would like to meet him and hopefully garner some kind of friendship."

He chuckled "Hes generally easy to get along with but he can be very defensive, hes been so of others ever since the incident....why not come to dinner with the family as a form of sealing the deal permanently?"

"Hmm." Rhys grunted, not entirely convinced. Parents like to make their children out to be better than they were. He wouldn't trust anything until he'd actually met this Chibon in person. "Dinner sounds lovely." He finally agreed, giving a short bow. "In the meantime, I have some other business to attend to. If you'll excuse me."

He nodded "Im sure you do, we all do at that, Dinner is in about 5-6 hours, if you cant make it we'd understand" He nodded "Im sure your busy"

"No, no. I'll be here." Rhys assured. After another nod, he left, quickly striding from the house. First things first, it was time to blackmail the blackmailer.

Rhys laughed. "Thanks. Either way though I would have found him. See you tonight." He winked and set off again.

Indeed the tyrant was in town, relaxing and such. Needless to say by the time Rhys was done he was no longer in a relaxed mood, on the contrary he was quite afraid and leaving the planet, possibly never to return. On up side was the pink one was walking with a few bags of groceries.
