[attr="class","skullbody"]"Dog treats?" Isaac asked as he saw the bag of cookies get thrown behind Mint. That . . . was actually really smart, huh. Canid Pokemon were fast and good at tracking, making them natural companions for a job like this. It also meant dog treats were a natural remedy to the problem. Even if they only stole their target's attention for a little while, a split second's hesitation could make all the difference.[break][break]

Plan B was . . . less than glamorous, to say the least. The sewer. This was what his life had come down to. Absconding down the sewer like some kind of ninja turtle reject. Well, they did warn him in their brief bits of pre-field training that Rocket work was far from glamorous. Isaac had taken that to mean, like. Moral compromises. Or getting his hands dirty with physical labor. Not taking a ride down the all-too-literal poop chute.[break][break]

Still, beggars couldn't be choosers, and what was a thief but a beggar taking a far more direct approach? Isaac clasped his hand and mouth over his nose, nodding a thanks towards Spumoni before climbing down into the abyss. Times like this, he was glad he had gloves on. Even with how slick with grime and muck the sewer's ladder was, they gave him the traction he needed to avoid falling back first into some stinkwater.[break][break]

By the time the cop had gotten control of his pet, he wouldn't even find a trace of Isaac or Mint. If there was any scent of theirs to be tracked, it died in the horrendous stank of the sewer system. Coincidentally, the cop was paid far too little to start messing around with those in case of a hunch. Trail cold, case closed, nothing he could do, next![break][break]

Isaac sighed in relief as he finally reached the concrete floors of the sewer system. "Shitty ending aside? That actually wasn't nearly as bad as I thought," Isaac admitted. "Thanks a ton for showing me the ropes. Now, c'mon. Let's find the nearest place where we can get the hell out of this mess. I'm not tracing these sewer systems all the way to the freaking sub."
