Psst, yo, check it. Big heist on the horizon, could wipe my slate clean. You in?
not yet you still have debts to pay
Look, I know I owe some people some money, but this job is gonna sort me out. I'll make it right, I promise. Just give me one more chance.
Alright, listen up. We hit the jackpot store downtown. They got the most expensive diamond necklace in the city.
leans in closer, speaking softly Here's the deal. We go in during the blackout tomorrow night.
wait how do you know there will be a blackout
smirks Let's just say I have my ways of finding out these things. Trust me, it's gonna be the perfect distraction for us to slip in unnoticed.
claps hands together Alright, here's what we're gonna do. We'll meet up at midnight behind the construction site.
pulls out a detailed map of the city and points to the location
im behind the construction site at midnight as agreed upon
checks his surroundings, making sure no one saw him Alright, we're all set. Remember, we have a limited window of time.
well it looks like we have time to spare so what now
looks around, searching for any potential threats or obstacles We need to stay low and keep a lookout for any suspicious activity.
hm no one around it’s clear
spots a security camera in the distance and points it out Shit, there's a camera up ahead. We need to disable it if we want to pull this off.
pulls out a small toolkit from his pocket I brought something for this exact purpose. Watch and learn.
I watch as you begin to disable the camera
uses the toolkit to disconnect the power supply to the camera, causing it to go dark There we go, one less pair of eyes on us.
smirks pretty good you actually managed to do it without killing anyone including me but why exactly do you need my help anyway? I mean I’m good at this kind of stuff too but you got debts right? so wouldn’t it make sense if you just handled it yourself then I could still live somehow even if things didn’t work out you would still pay the price instead of me so why bring me along again it just makes no sense
pauses, his eyes narrowing as he contemplates his next words Look, I get it. It might seem like I don't need your help, but here's the thing.
leans in closer, his voice filled with a mixture of desperation and determination
grabs equatorialmuse by the collar, his grip tight I'm in deep shit with the wrong people, and they're breathing down my neck.
they won’t dare hurt you cause you’re an important person right? plus I heard even the mightiest of warriors fear death because of how painful it is I really don’t think you should be worried about anything if you asked me honestly
narrows his eyes, his grip tightening even more Don't mistake my importance for invincibility. These guys, they're ruthless.
oh ok your funeral I guess
releases equatorialmuse's collar and takes a step back, his eyes filled with determination Look, I know you're good at this.
yeah I guess that’s true but people with important roles don’t die unless it’s assassinations and honestly the mob isn’t really known to pull off any of those or hardly ever
pauses, his expression hardening I appreciate your confidence in my abilities, but I can't risk losing everything I have worked for.
