The Fiery Mrs Pots - D-Rank Mission

[Shouyu Hoshi]

His bottom felt immediate relief a sigh would second that as he leaned back listening Mrs. Pots words of advice. Kobura began to speak about their real reason for being here today and he too nodded in agreement as his hand accepted the medicine required from Mrs. Pots. His pants were up and he was now just leaning on the wall at the moment with his shoulder, feet crossed at the ankle and in relaxed position. Heck, the kid never seen a home this nice since the days he lived happily with his parents. With his own village at that, what he called home was now gone and he was here rekindling those relationships anew with different faces. In a sense, letting the others legend live on through these people. His head was low eyes closed, frequently nodding at Kobura's statement.

Before he could even respond Mrs. Pots began to speak for herself in response, and her rebuttal through the boy for a loop. She claimed to only be average and seemed rather complacent in her skill and even gave credit to that of a more talented in the medical field. 'No way, this is either her just being modest or she really has put this whole medical thing behind her. But then, if that was the case and she is just another average worker, why make it such a big deal to bring her back? Hmmm.' The young shinobi listened intently and right before he was going to speak, holding up his right index finger in conjunction to Mrs. Pots, mouth agate, he stopped. Sniffed once, twice...

"Sorry to interrupt, but, Mrs. Pots, are you not cooking something? The scent of gasoline is thick is the dangers of that while a flame is lit is rather high risk! We should continue this talk else where after this place has been properly ventilated. Kobu-... Huh?"

There was a knock at the door, and he has head shot toward that direction. Of course it was Izanagi, but this could be either the worst or perfect timing. If enough of that gas fills the air catches ignition from the fire on the stove, a spontaneous combustion could end everyone person and furry feline in here rather quickly. He gritted his teeth and considered the next move thoroughly, but looking at his squad captain awaiting her orders, he was ready to pounce and round up the cats for an immediate retreat. Or simply, he could just turn the stove off, with that, the boy ran frantically across the room to turn her stove off. He was sweating bullets, close call really. He turned around to face the two, his eyes adverted to the door again before he ran to it and opened it up. Of course Izanagi was there, but Shouyu leaned in and whispered with his greeting.

"We may have to make a hasty a retreat. I smell a gas leak in here and it may be serious."

He turned to face Kobura and Mrs. Pots once more and beckoned them towards the front door with haste. Times like this, the boy wished he had learned some kind of water jutsu. Nothing a little studying couldn't hep, but now, if in the event of an explosion the only thing they can do is retreat now before the event detonates itself. He hoped that this would not be the scenario, another loss like this for the woman could be devastating.

"Please, Mrs. Pots, we will round up your kittens and belongings just in case but now is the time to draw back as safety precaution. You may not feel that you are an asset to the community, by out Raikage has summoned us here to plead with you to return for a reason. And for that, your safety is a number one concern! Allow us to escort you immediately!"

 

[Kobura]

Kobura watched as the former nurse was attending to Shouyu burned bottom but something else was occupying her mind right now. Strange smell had entered the room but she was unsure of the smell until Shouyu had announced it. She had never smelled gas but knew it was something different and thought it could of been the cats until confirmed. Breaking her focus on the smell were some knocks at the door and figured Izanagi had finally made it from the hospital.

"Good timing.." she thought to herself.

Kobura stood up quickly looking at Shouyu, "Get Mrs. Pots out of here quickly and Izanagi and I will gather her cats since you have an injury."

Kobura spoke with authority and looked at Izanagi nodding at him to start on the task. Kobura quickly made her way towards the door hoping Izanagi was already heading out the door. Before exiting she turned to Shouyu as if looking at him as if to say something was about happen that would show Mrs. Pots was needed. She leapt through the door landing on the left side starting to gather a couple of the friendly looking cats and making a noise with her mouth to get more to follow her as she made her way away from the house.

It didn't cross her mind about if Izanagi got the files or not, or if he would have some sort of discomfort gathering the cats after having rub his rear with his bottom lip. It was no time to have those mind of emotions but they were kids and children still did things that were mean.

 

[Junan]

There was the scent of gasoline? She had been in the house too long and so the scent wasn't one which she would pick up. Genuine surprise at the smell as her mind wandered and though about the source of it. Then she realised.

Oh yes. She said as the youngsters motioned for her to get out, and then one went to get the cats.

No, wait. I think I know what it is. It's nothing to panic about. Look tell the Raikage that I'll aim to come back to work in a month or so. She said half-by herding the young shinobi back out the door.

Don't worry, everything here is fine. She said, a slightly concerned look on her face as she guided the two already in the house out to their friend who had only just re-arrived.

Good luck. She said, then smiled, then closed the door on them.

It had all moved so quickly, first they had reacted, and then she had reacted to their reaction. Outside they could no longer smell the gas... only the smell of cat defecation.

They had achieved their mission though. She was going to aim to be back to work in a month or so. At least that's what she said.

So the trio could do as they wanted at this point... go back... report in the success of the mission. Enjoy some extra money.

 

[Sei]

He'd only knocked on the door, unable to really hear anything happening in the house, when Hoshi opened the door, seemingly as animated as ever. Izanagi raised his eyebrow, opening his mouth to say something, when Hoshi whispered something about a leak and safety, before going back into the house to do.... Something, Izanagi could barely hear his most of his whisper. He furrowed his brow, thoroughly confused.

He was about to walk in when he heard Kobura talk about gathering cats and getting Pots out, which he figured had something do with the mentioned leak. What were they talking about? Izanagi didn't see, hear, nor smell anything out of the ordinary (yet), so it had seemed to him that they were probably freaking out about nothing. He really didn't have the patience to try and stop one of them to ask what the hell was going on, so he just stood there, his hands on his hips (the file clutched in his fingers).

And then Pots was pushing the other two out of the door, causing Izanagi to back-up slightly. Luckily, he caught the bit about her saying that she'll go back in in about a month or so, which was pretty much what they were trying to get her to do, but probably in less than 24 posts. He looked to the two people he'd been teamed up with, before shrugging, pushing the folder to Kobura's chest so that she'd be either forced to grab it or let it drop in front of her. "Mission well done, team." He beckoned for the two to come along so they could go report the mission success and get paid, Izanagi already thinking about the different cooking ingredients he was going to get.

 

[Shouyu Hoshi]

Before the kid could even execute the plans at hand, the door was open and Kobura and himself were being shoved out the door, reassured that everything was okay and a door slamming shut with a a large thread. He had even bumped into Kobura a bit coming out of the door. Feeling rushed and a bit beat, the kid got his space from the other two and just sighed a long exhale of relief. It was a mission complete, so simple but it seemed like it took forever oh man. And even then, he still wondered if Mrs. Pots was going to be okay, he looked back for a second.

There was really no need to be around anymore, time to report and get some extra cash. He needed the food, he rubbed his belly, Izan forced the packet into the leader's hands, Shouyu laughed. He gave a thumbs up to Izanagi, a wink to Kobura and spoke playfully.

"Heh, took long enough right? Heard there's another mission for us back at the office. Well, I'm gonna get some grub and I'll meet you guys over there. Don't be late Izan, I'll punch your lights out! Heh. See ya Kobura!"

The kid started jogging off that lead to an all out sprint to the nearest ramen spot.

 

[Kobura]

Kobura was a bit surprised as Mrs. Pots pushed Shouyu causing him to bump into which in turn caused her to lose balance before landing forcing her belly to land flat against the ground.

"OWWWW" she shouted rolling over to her back as she started rubbing her right hand over her stomach. Before she could even look back at up at Shouyu she heard the door slam shut. Once she managed to gather herself and dust herself off Izanagi forced the folder into her chest, she assumed he had stolen them from the hospital since she knew he didn't have clearance to obtain such private information. Even information on patients was always confidental, but she would keep them for herself to study just to increase her own knowledge.

"Well done you guys" she said turning to Shouyu smiling a bit letting him know she was going to keep his booty a secret. She tucked the file into her jacket making she it was secured properly before looking at the cats outside the house and then thinking what was the real smell that they smelt. It seemed very odd to her that Mrs. Pots would rush them out like that if it wasn't such a big deal but then again she seemed like it was just to get rid of them altogether. She shrugged to herself nodding at both Izanagi and Shouyu as she started her own journey back upon the supposedly completed mission.

 

[Junan]

They had left, she'd forgotten that the lab would have a smell, she'd hidden in so well with the scent of cat pee and shit so that no-one outside the house would be aware.

She went down stairs to her basement and checked over her equipment.

Good.

This latest batch of poisons looked clear, and the organization would be able to sell it for plenty.
