Sage was leaving the beautiful garden of crocus, he did some sketching of the flowers in the garden that he didn't realize it was getting dark. Sage was heading towards the Batra's Inn, the place where he will be staying for the time being. When Sage reached the Inn, he saw someone walking out of it, his face uncalm and it was as if he wants to leave that place as soon as he can. Sage then didn't mind the man and continued walking towards the inn. When Sage reached the inn's wooden front door, with an oil lamp already lighten up beside it welcoming every passerby to come in warmly. Sage pushed the inn's door and when he laid his eyes on the lounge he could see Batra, the inn's owner, in distress. Sage walked up to Batra, his hands on his back and with a smile sage asked, "What's wrong Batra?". Batra noticed Sage as he turned around towards Sage and answered, "Oh it's you, well our only cook for the night quit and hence we don't have anybody to cook for the night and we were expecting daily customers to stop by and we would disappoint them if we don't hire a new cook in such a short time.". Being a softy that's Sage always is, he said to Batra, "You need a cook? well, you can always look for me if you need one.", Batra looked at Sage with a look that seems like he didn't believe what he just heard. "You can cook? Are you sure?". Sage sighed, he was bombarded with this question ever since he was born, he used to love cooking and will forever love to do so, he started cooking at the age of 7 and he received many compliments too, "Of course I can, plus I bet the menu for tonight will be too simple that I believe everyone should know how to cook them." Sage said with confidence, he noticed the many near him on a counter and took it, he scanned the menu and he was right, it was filled with hot dogs, baked potatoes, french fries, hamburgers and just a slightly complicated menu but still easy to do which is chicken wings. Sage set the menu down where he took it and looked at Batra, "I'd do it only if there's a good amount of reward tho." He said while grinning, "Of course, of course, please the kitchen is this way." Batra replied while leading Sage towards the back kitchen. They entered the kitchen, the environment was familiar to Sage, the smell of onions, the gleaming reflection of pans and knives, the air felt oily and many more. He noticed an apron laying on a chair, he took it and wore it. "Let's heat the oil up!" Sage exclaimed, he was so excited to show his skills in cooking, he might change the recipe too to show them his true cooking skills.

Sage analyzed the kitchen first, where the pans are, the knives, the veggies and meats, the oil, and such. When his mind was adapted to the area, Sage began working, he first heat the oil up first so if he wanna fry some fries or anything he can do it instantly, then he took out a cutting board from the cabinet near him, he then took a knife and a cabbage, he then began cutting it, it didn't require much effort as the cabbage was fragile and Sage is experienced with cutting veggies, he then took onions and started to cut them too, as almost every single meal need onions in it. Since Sage was supposed to cook only, he was pleased as he wasn't ready to ask strangers what they want to eat and he would probably suck at it. The kitchen bell ringed, a small paper were clipped onto the string above a counter, and Sage knew what it was, his very first order. More orders came and sage wasn't surprised as he helped his uncle once in his restaurant and he knows the pressure to cook and the heat in the kitchen. Sage read an order, and it demanded three hamburgers, he quickly turned the gas on, and spill a little oil on the stove, he then spread the oil all over it and he grabbed three patties that had been unfrozen by a kitchen crew. Sage placed all three of the patties on the stove and waited for it to cook, whilst waiting he prepared three buns, cut the middle into half and placed lettuces, tomatoes and onions in it. He flipped the three patties after awhile and when he could smell the juicy smell of the patties, he turned the gas off and picked his spatula, professionally placed all three of the patty onto the prepared bun, he then placed the hamburgers onto a tray and said, "order served!". He then moved onto the next order. it demanded something heavier, breaded chicken wings, two sets of them. Sage took the chicken out of the freezer and unfroze them with the sink water, he then mixed the chicken wings with spices and then dropped each of the chicken wing into a pot filled with hot oil, and waited for it to fry properly, whilst waiting he prepared the dressing and he moved to the next orders as well, they are french fries, baked potatoes and hot dogs. Sage easily fried the fries and dropped a potato into hot water, he then unfroze a set of hot dogs with the water sink, and he readied another pot filled with oil, he heated the oil and dropped 5 hot dogs into it. He then moved to the pot where the chicken wings were, and took all of them out and served it, he then took the baked potato now out of its pot and served it onto a plate and dressed it with sauces and veggies, he then waited for the hot dogs to get cooked and when it has, he took all of them out and served it. When it reached midnight, Sage removed the apron and placed it on a chair, he walked to Batra and he wanted to say something but he was too tired, Batra seemed to understand Sage, so he didn't say anything too, he gave Sage the reward and said thanks, Sage left the kitchen to his room and drop out instantly.
