Yuuki had cast the metamorphose skill for combat on Yumi earlier that day as he had received a request to take out some pesky critters that seemed to be plaguing Orchidia "You ready to do this Yumi?" Yuuki asked curiously wondering if Yumi had what it took to potentially go trudging through the sewers since she did have germaphobe tendencies when it came to unsanitary things "I'll be fine.... I think." Yumi said hesitantly which caused Miyuki who sat on his left shoulder to burst out laughing "Yumi, I am almost certain it takes master Yuuki a half hour just to coax you into the sewers when and if we need to go in there ." she said in a arrogant tone as the pixie loved pushing the other ones buttons especially when she teased the other pixie about her affections for Yuuki.

Yumi was clearly about to start a fight with Miyuki but Yuuki stepped in as they walked "Alright you two, now is not the time to bicker. You can do that later at the inn. Right now we have a job to do and the sooner it gets done the better." Yuuki said in a firm manner "Fine." Miyuki said with a hmph as she turned away pouting which made Yumi snicker a bit "Alright, alright. Ill avoid punishing my kouhai until later." she said in a playful but teasing manner as they arrived at a shop where Yuuki had planned to acquire some supplies to help with the job and hopefully put a end to the pest problem once and for all.

Yuuki entered the store with Yumi and Miyuki and looked around for a bit, looking at various odds and ends until he found what he was looking for a poison that had no odor or taste to it that was lethal to rats he grabbed that and a few wheels of cheese and a syringe with a needle on it and took them to the front counter and paid for them and left with his companions to go assemble his poisoned cheese. The trio walked until they found a park with some tables and Yuuki decided this is where he would assemble his bait, Yuuki laid the cheese out on the table and began to cut the cheese into little squares.

"What's this gonna do again?" Miyuki asked in an annoyed tone as if she felt Yuuki was just wasting time and jewels "It will poison and kill the rats when they eat it, were gonna scatter it around town, while killing the ones we see and hopefully rid this town of its problems." Yuuki said grinning up at Miyuki as he injected poison into another piece of cheese as he was close to being finished with his current project then phase two of operation rat removal could begin and maybe just maybe they would be done by lunch so the trio could be lazy for the remainder of the day although he really did need to figure out a way to get Yumi and Miyuki getting along better and working as a team since they would be helping fight in real combat eventually.

Yuuki finished injecting the last piece of cheese with the poison before scooping it into a sack with the rest of the cheese and disposing of the now empty poison bottle in a nearby garbage receptacle before the trio began their work. Yuuki walked down a dark and dusty alley tossing out handfuls of cheese every thirty or so feet not really too worried about being precise as he had more then enough poisoned cheese to use. Yuuki walked a few more feet before letting the cheese pouch hang freely at his side with his katana coming flashing out of it's sheath, cleaving a rat in half it's blood spraying the walls and pooling below its now lifeless corpse.

Yuuki lifted a manhole cover setting it off to the side before climbing down into the darkness while Miyuki gave Yumi a smug grin as if to taunt Yumi to see if she would actually come down or if Yuuki would have to coax her into the hole, but much to Miyuki's surprise Yumi didn't hesitate when she climbed down into the sewers. Yuuki gave Yumi half the remaining cheese and told her to go left and spread cheese and kill any rats she seen and to meet back here in 15 minutes to which Yumi only nodded to probably prevent from getting anything down here in her mouth. Yuuki and Miyuki went right with him spreading cheese in a similar manner and killing rats he seen here and there as they walked through the twisting labyrinth doing the job they had been hired for, although Yuuki did not see himself taking this job again as the sewer stunk something awful.

After around fifteen or so minutes Yuuki had made his way back to the original manhole cover he had removed only to find Yumi there waiting on him "Beat me back!" Yuuki said in a playful manner " W-well... I ran out of cheese and something scared me and I dropped my dagger into that filth.... so I came back." She said bashfully while looking at her toes "That's alright, was just a cheap dagger anyways." Yuuki said reassuring Yumi that nothing of value was lost as he glanced over at Miyuki who sat on his shoulder with the smuggest grin ever on her face "Alright lets climb out of this filth and go collect our reward, as all three of us could definitely use a bath." he said as the trio climbed out of the sewers and headed off to collect their reward and take a bath.
