Description
Sakroe’s head was ringing quite heavily, as the feline let out a faint groan while coming back to his senses; everything seemed like a heavy blur while his head was ringing like crazy as he tried to understand where exactly he saw, making out some outlines he found that he was in a very large iron box, while at the end of said box he could see an opening. Groaning a little, carefully crawled his way towards it, from which some light was pouring and a very odd sound was following, it sounded like firecrackers or least something resembling it, just as he was inches away, suddenly the opening parted wider with a blinding light hitting Sakroe into the face as he then soon found himself getting grabbed and pulled out.
The blinding sunlight hit him hard as he met face to face with what seemed like a chicken, or well a chicken mask, one could tell by the rather creepy hollow eyes, the next thing he saw was figure wearing a chicken head which had a rather creepy blank expression, his clothes were made consisted out of a varsity jacket a t-shirt under it, pair of blue jeans, but what stood out was that he had bandages wrapped around his palms, said palms looking like they belonged to a coyote, in his left hand he clenched what seemed like an SMG with a strange paint-job on it that resembled palm tree’s, a strange red circle with three stripes and finishing it off was a strange color pattern which almost looked oddly neon, while in the right one he had what looked like an eighties tape recorder, looking at Sakroe the mask wearing figure tilted his head from side to side, before pressing the button on his tape recorder.

“Do you need further help?” The female voice on the tape recorder asked.

Before Sakroe could reply, however, several bullets whizzed by, promoting the chicken mask wearing figure to start dragging him away while the feline looked around, seeing that he was in something that resembled a shopping mall, with a van inside said a shopping mall. The van’s hood was smoking, and it seemed like it was slammed right into a large fountain in the center of the mall with some water dripping, but what actually stood out was the fact there was a huge dent where the driver's seat was located. That’s when Sakroe began to recall what really happened, as his haziness was wearing off.

*************************************************************************************************

It all started in the gang’s safe house, the day has been rather slow since their last job, and they thought they could take it easy. Sakroe mostly busied himself by flicking random TV channels, until he eventually stopped on one which spoke about the various insane conspiracies and other crazy nonsense, something the cream furred feline found interesting. Besides, it was a much safer thing, when compared to his “companion” at whom he’d look occasionally; said companion was a female ocelot looking roughly in her twenties who sat behind a table, as she busied herself with spinning the chamber of a revolver, putting it to her temple and pressing the trigger once she heard a click she’d repeat the process while her eyes stared at the cell phone laying right before her not even blinking when the revolver clicked. Swallowing a little, Sakroe turned his head back to the TV, though his ears would occasionally twitch to the “clicks” that emitted from the revolver.

“What will happen if you hit the bullet?” He suddenly asked, not turning his head as he heard another click.

“Well, then you’ll have to find a place where to закопать меня (bury me) and find yourself a new partner” She replied in a casual voice, just as she was about to pull the trigger the phone began to buzz.

Stopping, she then pointed at the gun up and pulled the trigger again; to the surprise of both felines the gun discharged leaving a lovely bullet hole in the ceiling. Sakroe cursed under his breath, getting a ringing in his left ear, while the ocelot stared at the hole for roughly four seconds.

“Well, seems like that shot would have been lucky…” She muttered, then finally responded to the call “Yes Bain, no it’s nothing important просто телик шумит (just the TV is being noisy)”

Giving a silent nod, she then waved her finger asking to Sakroe to come over. Muting the TV, the male feline hurried towards the table, as the ocelot pushed a button for loudspeaker mode.

“Hey, guys, sorry for keeping you bored for a while. Had to work with the other crewmates on some other jobs” Bain’s voice spoke on the other end “Anyway, I got an interesting job for you and a new crew member.”

“Oh sweet! Always nice to have new peeps” Sakroe exclaimed in an excited tone “Finally someone I can tell about my discoveries involving the chicken spices and lizard people”

“Едрённа-Мормонна, ещё придурков нехватало... (Great, as if I didn’t have enough idiots)” Alexis muttered under her breath, then rubbed her temples “What’s the job and where do we find this new guy?”

“That’s the interesting part; the contractor will wait for you guys at the job place, he’ll explain the task there.” Bain replied, making both felines look at each other “He also is gonna be bringing his friend for the ride apparently.”

Rubbing her chin in thought, Alexis didn’t really like the sound of this since usually, they worked with clear given plans, sure there were two times the gang has worked with their contractors quite close. But it still didn't feel right to the ocelot; this alien feeling told her that there was something wrong with this job. Sakroe meanwhile was more curious about the entire task, with his tail wagging quite eagerly.

“Very well Bain, send us the addresses of the places and we’ll prepare in accordance, and the address of the new guy so we can pick him up” Alexis replied, as she hung up making her way towards the armory.

Blinking, Sakroe quickly followed after her. Inside the armory, the felines busied themselves with choosing their guns, as Alexis grabbed an SCAR-H and her two MC1911 operators along with the combat knife, Sakroe grabbing his usual toys which were made from a serby super shorty, Glock 18C, VP70 and his favorite crowbar. Murring happily, Sakroe placed the heavy guns and masks into a duffle bag, as they slipped one some light body armor, making sure their suits are buttoned up to hide them along with their holstered pistols. After the preparations were done, Alexi’s phone buzzed as she saw the needed locations. Looking up the address, the ocelot raised her eyebrow as she was surprised to find out the new crew member lived down town, showing the phone to Sakroe the feline nodded as he grabbed the keys with the two leaving the safe house.

*************************************************************************************************

When they arrived at the scene, Sakroe peeked out seeing that the place looked like a somewhat old apartment complex, in fact it almost looked ready for demolition judging by all the boarded up windows, combined with some sleeping hobos and junkies.

“You sure this is the place?” Sakroe asked looking back at Alexis then back at the building “Looks like something out of a horror movie.”

“According to Bain this is the place, so let’s get this over with,” Alexis muttered, slipping some shades as she and Sakroe stepped out.

The inside of the building didn’t look any better, the walls covered in graffiti, old mattresses that had piss stains and something else, rotting doors wooden and floorboards, the smell of piss, dank, booze lingered in the air heavily, combined with sleeping hobos and junkies. Sakroe coughed blocking his sensitive nose as it was assaulted from all sides while the ocelot didn’t seem to pay much attention as they got on the fourth floor, as they went down the corridor, until they reached the needed door, which was given away by what sounded 80’s synthesizer music with Sakroe knocking several times. Silence followed, until they heard several locks clicking, as the door opened both felines blinked seeing the chicken mask wearing figure with neon lights blasting behind him, while Sakroe looked rather confused by the figures appearance and the fact he was wearing a mask so casually, Alexis on the other hand looked surprised at first, before she whipped out one of her pistols and pointed at the chicken face before Sakroe could react. The masked figure grabbed the gun and pointed it to the side making Alexis misfire, he then pulled her in, and head butted her hard, following it with punch in the gut that made her drop her gun in the process. As he was about to go for another strike, she wrapped her tail around his leg and pulled it making him lose balance and fall inside. Not wasting her time, she hurried inside, just as the chicken head quickly got to his feet as they began swapping blows, then the chicken head grabbed a hammer with Alexis whipping out her second pistol; Sakroe got between them before things have gotten really messy.

“Alright! Break it up you two!” The male feline exclaimed as he looked at them “Seriously, the hell is your problem Alexis?! Have you finally snapped or something?!”

“Not really, more like surprised to meet this bastard here or the fact he’s still alive.” Alexis muttered staring at the chicken mask, ignoring Sakroe “I had my running in with him in the past.”

Sakroe blinked, and then looked back at the chicken face that actually looked like he lost interest in the two felines as he made his way towards the counter grabbing a tape recorder off it and popping a tape into it.

“It’s nice of you to visit..kzzzt….My name is..kzzt…Jacket” The recording said in a female voice, as the chicken face pressed another button forwarding the tape “Please, make yourself at home..kzzzt…no need for rough housing…”

Sakroe carefully then looked back at his partner who kept a cold gaze at the masked figure, before holstering her gun and going to pick her other one. She doubted anyone would call the police in this joint; the place looked like you’d find bodies here anyway. But with things having calmed down, the two could finally notice the strange style the apartment decorated in, in fact, it practically seemed like they stepped through either a time portal or entered a different reality altogether. To make it easier, the entire place screamed 80’s aesthetic the walls were decorated with posters of 80’s bands and movies, a few neon signs decorated the walls as well as they flickered to a strange machine gun beat, 80’s styled furniture, there were a few arcade machines in the corner, which surprised Sakroe that they were in such a fine condition or the fact they even worked, a lone TV stood with some old consoles hooked up with various VHS tapes tossed around near the VCR, a lone boom box also stood on the counter with some old 80’s melody playing on it, one thing that was noticeable was a strange symbol drawn on the wall near the couch which resembled a red circle with three lines. Turning their heads back at the chicken face they watched him putting some things into his own bag which resembled an SMG, the hammer he tried to use on Alexis not long ago, some extra tapes by the look of it.

“So, you two are like old friends or something?” Sakroe finally asked, trying to break the strange tension filled silence “I mean, it’s like a given because you tried to kill each other or something.”

“As I said, we had a meeting in the past.” Alexis replied, looking through some VHS tapes “Let’s leave it at that and move on.”

Blinking again, Sakroe looked back at the chicken face slumped his bag over his shoulder and then pressed another button on the tape recorder.

“We are fully prepared..kzzt….Let’s head out…kzzt…tasks are waiting for us…” The messages said in various voices.

“As long as you promise not kill him, Alexis,” Sakroe said looking back at the female ocelot as she tossed one of the VHS tapes on the floor.

“I make no promises about that” The ocelot replied in a calm tone.

Giving a faint sigh, Sakroe rubbed his temples as the trio quickly departed with the chicken head closing the door after himself. Once in the car, Sakroe took the wheel as he would occasionally look back at the chicken head who mostly didn’t really “speak,” staring into one place with Alexis just looking out the window. Giving a mental sigh, the male feline hoped this job would go much easier and the two wouldn’t end up killing each other during it or least Alexis didn’t pull anything to make it seem like an accident.

“This day was starting so nice…” Sakroe said under his breath.

***************************************************************************************************

The meeting spot was parking lot near the Pacific Standard Bank, the ones meeting Alexis and Sakroe were two men with some bags behind their backs where they were clearly hiding their own weapons and probably more. One of them was a grey wolf who looked roughly in his forties, ice-cold blue eye, a deep scar on his left eye which seemed fairly old, a plaster on his nose which seemed quite fresh, five o’clock shadow, his hair being rather short trimmed with a balding on the back of it, his clothing made from a grey suit with a somewhat undid tie. The second one seemed like he was he was maybe in his twenties like Alexis, species wise he seemed to be a Doberman, long hair done in a pony tail, black suit, with a pair of reading glasses covering his green eyes. While the wolf seemed like someone who was used to gunfire and robberies, the Doberman looked like he wasn’t quite sure about himself and in fact rather nervous about the aspect. Spotting the car, the wolf waved at ‘em as Sakroe and Alexis approached them while Jacket stayed in the car since they doubted anyone would react nicely to seeing a weirdo in a chicken mask walk in broad daylight.

“So, you’re the guys who wanted us?” Alexis asked, studying the two canines “

“Yeah, my name is Kane” The wolf introduced himself shaking Alexis hand and then gestured at the doberman “This is Lucas”

“Pleasure to meet you; I’m Alexis this is Sakroe” The ocelot replied in a soft tone “So, what’s the job?”

“Get inside the bank, grab the stuff we need and get out. There’s an underground garage we can use, the entrance is in the back” The wolf said in a gruff voice, sounding like he smoked quite a lot “We brought some knock out grenades, can use ‘em to have some hostages just in case.”
“Sounds like it can be a plan” Alexis murmured rubbing her chin in thought.

“Yeah, especially if they are asleep, we can make sure they aren’t submitted to evil mind control.” Sakroe said, making the trio look at him “Well, ya know that cheery music that plays in the banks, mind control stuff.”

No comments followed, Alexis whispered to Sakroe to fetch Jacket and the stuff from the car. Gathering their things, they began making their way towards banks back entrance which lay trough the parking lot, climbing over the wall, they quickly hid behind some cars as they spotted one of the guards stepping out. Smirking, Alexis then stepped out her hand going behind her back as she slowly reached for her knife.

“Простите меня (excuse me) I’ve seem to have misplaced my car” She purred, giving a very friendly smile “Can you please help me, sir?”

“Ummm…Sure ma’am, are you an employee?” The guard asked, as he then turned around “There aren’t many cars here to-mhhpp!!”

His eyes went wide as he suddenly had a palm wrapped around his mouth while a blade rammed into his side, the jolt of pain going trough his entire body and then began to die down as he felt his body going limp and become cold, while something wet was coming from his side. Smirking, Alexis carefully lay down the body as she wiped her knife.

“Хороший ты парень, вот за это и пострадал (You’re such a nice guy, that’s why you ended up getting harmed)” Alexis muttered, as she gestured for the others to get out.

Getting inside, they removed their bags as they began grabbing their guns and putting on their masks. While Sakroe and Alexis had their weapons ready, Kane grabbed a M4 with a modified clip as Lucas took a SPAS12 with a pair of 9mm Berettas from their bag. Just as Jacket was about to grab his SMG, he spotted another guard rounding the corner, before anyone could blink he suddenly pounced on the guard and began to smash his head into pulp with his hammer. After a few more smacks, he stopped and looked back at four, some blood covering his mask as he then pulled out his tape recorder and pushed a button.

“Crisis has been averted, let us continue.” The voice from the recorder spoke softly as Jacket got up, putting his recorder away.

“And here I thought you were the creepy one…” Sakroe muttered looking at Alexis from behind his mask.

Getting to the roof, Kane made his way towards the vents and tossed some gas grenades into it, while Sakroe and Alexis tied some ropes, as they were ready to repel down to the underground garage. Spotting an approaching armored car with the garage doors opening, they saw this as their lucky opportunity, quickly repelling down, and following after the van. Just as the van parked, the two guys got out only to get gunned down by Sakroe and Alexis, while Jacket, Kane and Lucas took down the other guards who hurried towards the sound of gunfire, making their way trough the garage they came to a fork corridor, looking around they saw some stairs that were clearly leading down towards the vault while the other pair probably lead to the main lobby where the knocked out civilians were.

“Alright, me, Sakroe and Kane will head to the vault.” Alexis muttered looking at Lucas and Jacket
“You two head to the lobby and keep the hostages in check.”

“What? This is frickin’ bullshit! Why should I follow this weirdo?” Lucas asked, looking at Jacket.

“Because I fucking said so, так что за дело щёнок (get on it, puppy)” Alexis replied, as Lucas let out a deep growl of anger. “Also, I recommend you be professional about this.”

“Lucas, just do what she said, we’ll keep in contact via ear pieces.” Kane muttered, as the Doberman grumbled under his breath as he and Jacket left.

The trio made their way down the stairs, running across a few more guards with Sakroe and Alexis going for quick head shots, while Kane would shoot the guards straight in the chest. As they reached the vault, Sakroe whistled in surprise seeing a massive vault door before them, with what seemed like several locks.

“So, how do we get this thing opened?” The male cat, as Kane produced what seemed like a tablet and approached the vault.

“I got this; you guys just keep the coast clear.” Kane muttered, as he began to type something on his tablet “Hrmm…Shouldn’t be hard…”

Taking a position from both sides, Sakroe and Alexis kept their eye on the stairs while they heard each one of the vault locks slowly opening one by one. So far things have been relatively quite, and have been going rather well. When the last lock clicked open, the trio made their way inside seeing rows upon rows of deposit boxes, Sakroe then quickly hurried towards them as he looked around.

“Okay, so which one should I open first?” he asked, looking back at Kane who suddenly pushed him aside.

The two felines blinked looking at each other, and then back at Kane who was opening one of the deposit boxes, and then it hit Sakroe as he removed his mask.

“Wait, you have a fucking code and you’re stealing your own shit?!” He asked, watching Kane pull out medium sized briefcase from one of the boxes as he went for another one “The hell is this bullshit?!”

Kane simply ignored him, as he opened the other deposit box let out a deep growl as he slammed it shut, and began to mutter something under his breath as he looked around, with Sakroe catching the phrase “should be here.”

“Oi, seriously the hell is going on here?!” Sakroe asked, spinning Kane around “You better start explaining!”

“It’s none of your concern,” Kane grumbled, as he got grabbed by Sakroe and turned around.

“None of our concern?! Bullshit asshole! It is our fucking concern!!”

Suddenly, the wolf let out growl as he slammed Sakroe against the deposit boxes with his elbow pressed against the feline’s neck, cutting off his air as Kane stared into Sakroes eyes, while baring his sharp teeth.

“I told you, none of your fucking business!” He snarled, but then both Sakroe and Kane heard a click, as the later felt a cold piece of metal pressed against the back of his head.

“Отпусти котёнка (Let go of the kitten) or I’ll ventilate you.” Alexis muttered, having one of her Operators aimed at Kane’s head. “Your choice, puppy~”

Gritting his teeth from underneath his mask, Kane pulled away as he picked the suitcase and began to leave the vault, while Sakroe rubbed his neck and then smiled to Alexis giving her thumbs up as he slipped his mask back on. Not bothering with the other deposit boxes, they followed after the wolf.

“Okay, this has officially become weird” Sakroe muttered to Alexis, who gave a simple nod.
Meanwhile, Kane placed a finger to his ear to contact Lucas; silence came first as he then heard some rummaging.

“Lucas, is everything okay there? We’re done here, coming to join you guys.” He asked, hearing some grumbling followed by a gunshot. “Lucas, is everything okay?!”

“Y-Yeah! We’re good..O..Oi! Stand down you!” The Doberman exclaimed as another gunshot was heard, making both Alexis and Sakroe blink “D-Dammit! Hurry up here!”

Kane cursed under his breath, as they ran up the stairs and made their way towards the lobby. When they arrived, they saw quite a site to behold. Before them lay the hostages, who were all dead and gunned down while Lucas was frantically reloading his shotgun as Jacket clearly tried to help one of the injured civilians, but then stopped as he saw that the guy wasn’t gonna survive. Seeing the trio, Lucas quickly jumped off the desk as he hurried towards them.

“W-What the fuck happened here?!” Kane exclaimed looking around in horror “Lucas, what is this shit?!”

“I..I..mm..T-They began to wake up..M..me and J-jacket..w-we tried to hold ‘em down” He said, removing his mask and then adjusted his glasses “T-two of them turned out to be cops! W-We fired a-and then..mmm…T-They began to panic..I..I tried to make them stay down.”

“So you fucking killed them all?!” Sakroe joined in looking at the massacre “Seriously, the hell is wrong with you?!”

“I..I..I said, I..I just panicked! I..I didn’t mean too!” Lucas stammered, as he panted heavily with tears welling up in his eyes.

“Its fine, mistakes happen,” Alexis suddenly replied, as she hanged her rifle on her shoulder and approached Lucas “But, may I see your shotgun? Just to see if it’s in good condition.”

Lucas nodded, wiping some tears away as he handed the ocelot his shotgun. Alexis studied in silence, when she suddenly aimed it at the Doberman and before he could blink, she pulled the trigger blasting him in the chest which made him flip over the desk; letting out a faint groan he then went silent. Kane and Sakroe stared in silence, as Alexis tossed the shotgun away and turned around only to stare at the barrel of Kane’s rifle.

“What the fuck was that shit?!” The wolf snarled, narrowing his normal eye “Why did you just shoot the kid?!”

“I asked him to be professional” The ocelot replied in a calm voice “I don’t like working with those who aren’t professional.”

Kane gritted his teeth even more, as his finger played with the trigger, when Alexis removed her mask, grabbed the guns barrel, and pressed it against her forehead while staring into the wolf’s eyes.

“Либо жми курок (Either pull the trigger) or piss off” The ocelot replied in a calm tone, as she waited for the wolf to make his move.

Staring at her in what seemed like hours; they heard the sound of sirens from the distance which made Kane pull away and head towards the entrance while muttering the words ‘crazy bitch’, under his breath. Alexis simply smirked, slipping her mask back on as she then looked at Sakroe who still looked quite freaked out by the whole thing.

“What?” She asked, tilting her head to the side “Something wrong, kitten?”

“Just..mm…What if he pulled the trigger?” He asked, only getting a casual shrug from Alexis “You seriously have some issues….”

“Yet, you still work with me,” She replied in a somewhat smug tone. “Anyway, I'm gonna call Bain and get us a getaway, deal with the cops for the time being.”

Nodding, Sakroe quickly hurried up the 2nd floor, Jacket hid behind some pillars while Kane took position behind another desk. The sires were still howling outside, as they could hear the officers yelling something in their megaphones. It was clear they weren’t gonna bother to negotiate with them, especially after the massacre that stupid Doberman did, so it was no surprise when several smoke grenades flew inside. Both Kane and Jacket got ready, while Sakroe slowly licked his lips as he looked up spotting the police chopper approaching, which meant they were gonna be descending down on them. An right on que SWAT began to storm inside trough the front doors as Kane and Jacket began to fire at 'em, while backup started to repel down from the chopper only to meet Sakroe’s shotgun, which was joined up by Alexis rifle.

“Pick up is gonna arrive in three minutes,” Alexis replied, switching to a fresh clip “Seems like Bain knew a guy not far from here.”

“Heh, talk about being lucky.” Sakroe replied; blasting another repelling cop as the chopper began to pull away “So, any guesses what’s inside the suitcase?”

“Not a clue, but I’m quite curious to get my paws on it.”

Sakroe looked down towards the desk where Kane was busy reloading his M4, the briefcase beside him; the wolf was clearly dead set on not letting it out of his site. Which made the male feline more curious to see what was inside it, maybe he could find out after they escape this mess. However to their surprise, the promised getaway arrived much earlier than expected, as they saw a van crash trough the front doors sending some of the cops flying aside and slam either into columns or walls, it then spun around, with the back doors opening as they heard the driver yell for them to get inside. They didn’t waste anytime as Sakroe, Jacket an Alexis sat in the back while Kane climbed next to the driver, as they began to speed away before the cops came to their senses.
However, their moment of relief was short lived as they heard the sirens following after them, with one car smashing in the back of the van.

“Goddamit! Oi, you three deal with those cops!” The driver yelled out “Or else we aren’t getting away!”

Getting their guns ready, Sakroe then kicked the doors open as they began blasting at the cop cars, but it seem that more they shot more would appear in their places. What also didn’t help, was the driver constantly moving from side to side made it hard to take proper aim at the cops. Cursing under his breath, the driver took a left turn going up a hill and going to the highway.

“Asshole, hold still! “ Sakroe yelled back, trying to pop some fresh shells into his shotty. “We can’t exactly shoot with this driving!”

“Hey! You wanna get over here and drive!?” The driver yelled back, as he looked back.

“Idiot, keep your eye-TRUCK!!!” Kane yelled out pointing to the left.
The driver then turned his head as everything felt like it was going in slow-motion as a large semi slammed into the van, making it spin out of the control followed by slamming trough the blockade and start rolling down the hill, while in the back the trio was tossed all around, until everything went dark.

***************************************************************************************************

Sakroe gave another soft groan, as Jacket dragged him towards what seemed to be a toy store, where he saw Alexis hiding behind the counter, her forehead bleeding, the mask was missing and instead she wore a pair of shades, while she was busy reloading her rifle.

“Hey, sleeping beauty had a nice rest?” She asked, tossing him the shotty, with the feline nearly dropping it as “Here I thought only me and chicken head survived.”

“Ngh..W-Where’s Kane?” Sakroe asked, dropping beside her, rubbing his aching head and back.

“Back in the van, seems like he was knocked out in the crash, the driver sadly didn’t make it.”

“The briefcase?” Sakroe asked, finally managing to pop some shells, as he saw Alexis produces said briefcase “Why take it and not help Kane?”

“Он мудак (He’s an asshole), plus I want to know what’s inside.” The feline replied, as her phone began to buzz, pulling it out she raised her eyebrow “Seems like Bain is sending a pick up for us, it’ll meet us in the malls underground parking lot.”

Sakroe cursed, as he peeked out from behind seeing the cops surrounding the van, while the others were exploring the area. Seems like their little stunt has brought half the police force on their butts, sighing the feline slid back down, looking at his companion not even bothering to ask where the parking lot was.

“On the other end of the mall,” Alexis purred, checking how much ammo she had left “Could be a nice workout for us~”

“I sometimes question your sudden changes of attitude.” Sakroe muttered “Quite frankly, it worries me.”

“Never knew you singed up to be my therapist, I’ll pay you for the treatment later” Alexis replied, petting Sakroe on the head “Now then, I suggest we start doing some running. I’ll take the lower path.”

“Spreading out, kinda risky if you ask me,” Sakroe muttered, hearing the cops approaching closer. “Wouldn’t it be better if we stuck together?”

“Probably, but this way it’s more fun. Combined with them having to spread out to get us” Alexis said, not waiting for a response she popped up from cover and opened fire on the few cops, then grabbed the suitcase and dashed away. “Keep up boys!”

Both Sakroe and Jacket looked at each other in silence, before the feline let out a tired sigh while Jacket just gave an idle shrug. Jumping out of cover, they opened fire on the cops before they got their wits together, before they took off as fast as their feet could carry them. Jumping over a table, quickly rolling over another one he then fired at some of the cops, before ducking as a baton swung over his head to which the feline responded via a leg sweep and blasting the fallen SWAT officer in the face. Another one quickly charged at the feline, as Sakroe was about to blast him in the chest he heard a click instead, cursing under his breath the feline blocked the smack with his shotty, followed by a kick in the cops crotch. Yelping in pain, the guy dropped his baton and then stared at the grey feline who in return smashed the butt end of his shotty against the guys head. Then, a click came from behind, as Sakroe felt a rifle pressed against his head, turning his head a little he gave a faint gulp, but then to his surprise he saw a hammer slam in the side of the officer’s face. Turning his head, Sakroe saw Jacket who hurried to his side, gunning several more cops on the way. Picking up his hammer, the chicken head then began smashing against the cops face until it wasn’t anything but mush, as they were about to leave they were stopped by a bulky figure making their way towards them, making the two freeze. The figure turned out to be wearing a bomb disposals outfit which was colored in urban cammo, the helmet being hidden behind an armored plate that had a skull painted on it, while in his hands he held an M60. Sakroe and Jacket just stared at this lumbering monstrosity, who in response clearly was eyeing them back.

“What the fuck is wrong with this guy?” Sakroe asked looking at Jacket, who just shrugged.

The bulky figure then opened fire from his MG, forcing the two to dive in separate directions, as Sakroe rolled behind a flower stand with some dirt and plants falling on his head, while Jacket ended hiding behind the table. Stopping the fire barrage, the dozer began to reload his MG, giving the two criminals a chance to pop up and fire several times, which sadly didn’t help as Sakroe’s pistols and Jacket’s SMG didn’t do any damage, infact it probably angered him more than anything. Having reloaded his MG, he began firing on Jacket; meanwhile Sakroe spotted what seemed like a balloon stand not far from him, which gave an evil idea to the feline. Peeking out, he saw the dozer was distracted enough with Jacket who was rolling from table to table, firing his SMG at the armored monster. Smirking, Sakroe carefully snuck his way towards the stand. Managing to approach his position, he grabbed one of the helium tanks and hefted it right on the balloon cart, making sure to take careful aim at the dozer.

“Hey big guy, ever heard of the song “Rocket man?”” He called out, making the dozer turn around “Well guess what, that’s about you!”

Pointing his Glock at the valve, he then pulled the trigger blasting the valve off as he sent the tank flying directly at the dozer. Being a massive bastard, he didn’t have time to dodge this as the tank slammed into his chest, forcing him to drop his MG and then fly directly over Jacket right into a small coffee stand. What happened next was a lovely detonation, as the coffee stand went up in a fireball, vaporizing the dozer while hurting several cops in the process. Looking at this destruction, Jacket then looked back Sakroe once again not uttering a word, as he threw his hands as if trying to say ‘Warn me next time!’

“Well, you had to admit, that was kinda awesome.” Sakroe murmured rubbing the back of his head “Wish I filmed it, would have been awesome…”

Suddenly several bullets whizzed by forcing the two to run for it, while occasionally shooting back not even bothering to look back. Rounding the corner, they came to a corridor with an elevator to their left; Sakroe quickly pushed the button several times as he waited, as his ears then twitched.

“Ammunition has been depleted…kzzt…please give me some fresh cartridges…” Jacket’s taperecorder said, he tossed the empty SMG clip aside.

“Ummm…Sorry dude didn’t bring any with me.” Sakroe murmured, handing his VP70 “You can have this, though I’ll want it back.”

Jacket nodded in silence, accepting the gun as the elevator door opened. However what was inside is something they didn’t expect, as they came face to face with four armored SWAT officers and some armored shields before them. Staring at each other in silence, Jacket then reached into his jackets inner pocket as he whipped out a grenade, pulled out the pin from it, and tossed it inside the elevator before any of the cops could react. Sakroe then snapped out, pushing the button to close the elevator doors quickly, as they then heard a blast coming from it.
“On second thought, maybe we can just take the stairs.” Sakroe murmured, as they began to leave quickly.

Meanwhile, Alexis was running trough the second floor, until she got tackled by someone into a display window, losing her rifle in the process. Growling in anger, the ocelot then smacked the briefcase against the tacklers head making him roll off her, getting to her feet she then saw that four cops followed after her, with the fifth person wore an all black combat outfit with what seemed like night vision resting on his head. Brandishing their batons and combat knives, they stared at the ocelot in silence, who just sat the suitcase on the ground. Looking around, she noticed that they ended up in what seemed like a fast food joint. Sighing a little, she then cracked her neck several times.

“Alright, let’s get this over with…” She muttered, sounding rather frustrated.

One of the cops then rushed at her, as Alexis quickly snatched a nearby tray, blocking the knife attack and followed up by a kick to the stomach making the cop release it. Not wasting time she then threw the tray into another approaching cop nailing him right in the throat, after which she made her way towards cashier area with the other cops hurrying after her, while the night vision wearing one sat down at the nearest table, looking like he was waiting patiently. Dodging a baton swing, she grabbed the cop by the shoulders as she kneed him in the stomach, followed by slamming his head against the counter several times and then rolled over the counter, heading into the kitchen with the two cops going after her. Inside the kitchen, the things weren’t going as great as she had to block baton smacks from both sides, with a few managing to pass her defenses and connect with her body. Hissing from the pain, the ocelot let out an angry growl, as she caught one of the cops hands with her tail, then did a leg sweep as she slammed him face forward into a French fries fryer, the cop let out a blood curling scream of pain as she held him in the boiling oil, just as another cop tried to attack her she grabbed a nearby kitchen knife and hurled it nailing the bastard in his left eye. Looking at the other cop, she saw that he wasn’t twitching anymore, pulling away Alexis then made her way towards the suitcase; however as she was about to leave a whistle made her stop. Turning her head, she saw the black wearing cop who kicked the chair away, looking at him in silence the special ops officer then decided to show what she was gonna get. First what did was least three round house kicks in mid jump, a backflip followed up by a frontal flip and a side flip, as he then took a fighting stance. Still being silent, Alexis suddenly whipped out one of her pistols and shot the guy several times. Watching his collapse, she holstered the gun, picked up the suitcase and took off before more cops arrived.

Inside the parking lot, both Jacket and Sakroe were hiding behind a jeep, with some cops shooting at them who were hiding behind some shields or cars. Peeking out, the feline sighed putting a fresh clip into his glock, as he then saw Alexis running down the stairs as she then slid joining the two.

“What took ya so long?!” The male feline asked.

“Stopped by for a snack,” Alexis replied, pulling out her pistol as well “No, I didn’t get you anything, so sorry.”

Giving a rather pouty face, Sakroe peeked out seeing the cops getting closer, but then all three heard a sound of a car engine as they saw a car fly trough the entrance, pretty much smashing into some of the cops and sending ‘em flying in different directions. The car in question was red Subaru, with a male dingo behind the wheel, wearing leather jacket with a pair of shades covering his eyes. Looking at the surprised trio, he just nodded as they hurried getting inside the car. The driver then put the pedal to the metal, as he began to speed away, while the gang managed to relax as Alexis started to open the suitcase to see what was inside. Upon opening, she let out a surprised whistle, promoting Sakroe to peek inside and gasp. Inside they saw rather well cut diamonds, there was roughly twenty of them inside.

“Well, I’ll be damned! Guess we just got a good payment for this job!” Sakroe exclaimed happily “Guess this wasn’t a complete loss, eh?”

“Heh, agreed,” Alexis murmured taking one of the diamonds. “Looks like Mr.Kane even gave us a lovely bonus at the same time~”
