leans against a graffiti-covered wall, flipping a car key Ready to dance with the devil tonight?
Got my shotgun, you got your keys
Let's find a couple of rides that'll make the boys in blue shed a tear!
Shall we kick this off then?
Oh hell yeah! Let's find us a car so hot it'll make the police look twice!
smirks You really know what I'm thinking. This one! pointing at a sleek red sports car
Ahaha! Good choice! Here come the questions though - how do you plan on getting away with these cars? Don't forget, there's more to car theft than just stealing the car!
smiles deviously Well... 1.) Hotwire. 2.) Joyride. 3.) Drive it away without anyone noticing. 4.) Don't get caught.
Sounds like a foolproof plan to me! Now let's see how this goes!
Woah! That car started right up! How did you know how to hotwire it?
You and Sly Cassidy both get inside the stolen sports car and drive away without anyone noticing! Great job! You've successfully stolen a car!
Thanks, but this is just the beginning. Wait till we hit the second car!
We'll need to find a quiet alley so we can transfer into the second vehicle without being seen. But where could we possibly go in this city that's quiet enough to pull off such a risky move?
Isn't there a warehouse district down the street? Sounds perfect for us.
You're right! There is a warehouse district just down the street! What a perfect place to switch vehicles without being noticed! You both make your way towards the warehouse district.
we arrive at the warehouses, their shadows stretching across the grimy streets under the moonlight. Excellent! looking around for potential targets. We've got several options here, which one to take first?
Hmm... I think we should start off with that big blue truck over there. It looks sturdy and it has a pretty good engine too. Plus, it has some loading ramp which could be useful for when we want to transfer between cars. How does that sound?
Sounds fantastic. Let's go check it out.
Perfect choice! You approach the truck and find a spare key hidden in a magnetic key holder on the driver's side door. You unlock the truck and hop inside. Let's take this baby for a spin! Starts up the engine and begins driving through the warehouse district.
You spot a single police officer walking towards your direction. What do you do?
shuts off the engine, pocketing the keys. Slowly getting out the truck, holding onto the door handle as we move away from the truck. Don't worry, I'll handle this. points to a nearby janitorial closet, hinting at our hiding spot There, move silently. I'll distract the officer.
Hey, what are you doing over there? Me: Oh, uh, just taking a look around. Sorry, I was looking for my lost wallet. Officer: Alright, sir. Just don't do anything suspicious now. I'll be keeping an eye on you.
Looks like he's buying it. He's turned his back on us. moves towards the janitorial closet, slipping inside. He gestures towards Sly Cassidy to join him. Come here! Hurry!
You manage to slip into the janitorial closet without being noticed. You hide there quietly as the officer walks past the door and out of sight. You can hear the distant siren of another patrol car approaching. The officer yells out to his fellow officers about a stolen vehicle but there is no sign of him coming closer. Seems like you've successfully avoided getting caught.
Whew, we were lucky that officer didn't see us! Now, let's figure out what we should do next. Should we try stealing another vehicle or make a getaway in this one? Or maybe there's a better plan we haven't thought of yet.
I say we switch to another vehicle. Where else would we hide? More places to search means less chance of getting caught.
You're absolutely right! Getting another vehicle will certainly reduce the chances of being caught. Let's get back on the move and keep on the lookout for our next target! You both exit the janitorial closet and head deeper into the warehouse district.
So, what makes you think this works?
Well, in most cities, there are certain areas designated as 'no-go' zones due to high crime rates. These areas tend to have abandoned buildings, rundown houses, and lots of hiding spots for criminals like us. In addition, there are usually plenty of stray animals wandering around in these areas, so it would be easy to blend in if we need to.
Good idea. How about a van? We can hide inside it and drive out of here unnoticed.
Sounds perfect! Let's find a suitable van and make our escape! You begin scanning the area for a van that you can use to make your escape. After a few minutes of searching, you find a medium-sized van parked near a dilapidated apartment building. It seems a bit old, but it should work for your purposes. You open the door and find a set of keys left in the ignition. Perfect! This van will do just fine! Get in and let's hit the road!
ForestRhapsody and Sly Cassidy get inside the van and start it up, slowly pulling away from the scene. They pass by a pair of police officers standing near a bike rack, but they don't seem to notice them.
So far so good. Now we just need to find a place to lay low until the heat dies down. Any suggestions?
Not yet, but we'll figure something out. I'm sure there's a safe house somewhere in this city. Maybe we'll find it by accident while we're trying to find food. And hey, we still have the Dodge Charger we stole earlier. It can serve as our backup ride. If things go south, we can always bail in it.
Sounds like a solid plan to me. Let's find ourselves a safe house and lay low for a bit until the heat dies down. And who knows? Maybe we'll stumble upon some more loot along the way! You continue driving through the city, looking for any signs of a safe house or abandoned building where you can hide.
As we explore, we pass by a drive-in movie theater. People are watching movies outside their cars, laughing, eating popcorn, and drinking soda. How about there? We can hide in one of those empty cars and watch the movie while we eat snacks. I've got some change in my pocket.
Perfect! Let's pull into the drive-in movie theater and enjoy the movie while we grab a bite to eat. You pull into an empty parking space near the front and center screen. You grab some snacks from your bag and sit back to enjoy the show. People all around you are laughing and enjoying the movie, completely oblivious to your presence.
After grabbing some snacks from the concession stand, we find a secluded spot and set up for the night. The movie is a romantic comedy, and we watch it attentively, occasionally commenting on the absurdity of the storyline. With every passing minute, we grow more relaxed. Alright, let's just enjoy the movie. We've earned it.
Absolutely! We deserve this break after all the trouble we've been through. And hey, who knows? Maybe we'll even pick up some ideas for our next caper while we watch this silly romance flick. You both settle in to enjoy the rest of the movie, munching on snacks and occasionally chuckling at the absurd jokes. The rest of the night passes without incident. You and Sly Cassidy enjoy the rest of the movie, not giving a second thought to the law or the consequences of your actions. You leave the drive-in at dawn, ready to face whatever comes your way.
morning light glares on our faces as we step out of the car, blinking and rubbing our eyes. Time to move again. We're not far from the highway; let's try sneaking onto it and hitch a ride to a new town.
Good plan! Let's get on the highway and try to catch a ride to a different town. We can't afford to stay in one place for too long. You both approach the highway and start waving down passing drivers, hoping to catch a ride before someone reports you to the authorities.
You're right about that! I'm gonna start waving people down.
I'll keep an eye out for any suspicious-looking cars. Maybe there's a way we can make our ride even more convincing. How about we take off our disguises and put on some more ordinary clothes? It might make us less noticeable to any passing drivers.
