proof of loyalty

[His master requested that he track down a group of bandits that have been causing trouble in the 80 mile beach area. He accepted this mission and left straight away . After traveling for 2days he reaches the town were they had been a week before and he started to ask around. He walked into a small corner shop and ask if they new anything about this group. The elderly lady behind the counter looked up for her sowing and said "Those bandits stole $400 dollars for me and shot a hole in the front window there , why do you want to know?"

"I am here to kill them." I said

"Its about time someone done something about that group" The elderly woman said

"So, do you know where they are?" I asked and she said "Well no but the owner of the fruit shop does" She pointed me in the way of the fruit shop and i thanked her as i walked away. I headed down the street until i seen the fruit shop . I walked inside and looked around for the shop owner but they were no where to be found.

A fragile looking man appeared from the back of the shop and hobbled out on a walking stick to greet the foreigner that had entered his shop. Before he did, he looked around at the state of his shop. There were holes in all the fruit and shelves were broken. It was all because of the bandits that had raided the village a week ago. He had been cleaning constantly, but the mess and destruction was so big, it was going to take him, as an old man, a long time.

"Hello young man, I'm sorry but I can't sell you any fruit at the moment, I can't be too sure what ones don't have bullets in them..." He trailed off and mumbled to himself.

"Could you possibly help me clean the place up a bit?" The man asked feebly, he was so desperate since he couldn't sell any fruit, and without an income, he and his family were slowly going hungry.

sure sir i would be glad to help you out and to make things even better i will get those bandits for you. Did they steal any money off you by any chance?

"Yes, they did. All of it, all of my money. It's going to be so hard to get anywhere without it. But thank you, thank you so much, I would love it if you got those bandits for me!" The old man exclaimed, he would have jumped up and down if he could have, but his leg was still so sore from trying to get away from the bandits.

how much did they take ? I will get them all and make them suffer for what they have done to you and this town.

"12,000 dollars, Help me please"
