QUICK AUTHOR'S NOTE: I DO NOT OWN NARUTO. I ONLY OWN THE PLOT AND MY OC'S THAT ARE TOO MANY TO NAME RIGHT NOW. THIS WILL BE THE ONLY WARNING SINCE I KEEP FORGETTING TO PUT THIS UP WITH MY STORIES AND I DON'T WANT ANYONE TO SUE ME.

Chapter One

Have you ever been so financially secure in your life that you've never had to struggle? To just walk into a house, go to the fridge and see food in the cold wonderland? You never have to freeze or feel the chill form outside as you sit at the table and eat dinner out of a can or even a five-star dinner recipe you decided to slave through.

Looking around the house I do believe that it is possible to live the good life. But then again that depends on another person's point of view. Seeing the dark mahogany of the table and counters with the black fridge, microwave and oven gleam in the moonlight with the light above the oven giving everything a warm glow while the fire in the living room crackled nicely. This is what it meant to have security and a place to escape to from the world. To just be able to sit on the counter eating dinner out of a can just because you didn't feel like cooking and knowing a nice hot shower and bed waited upstairs.

I wonder what it would be like to actually live here. The clock on the microwave showed 10:23pm. No one was home tonight as the woman of the house was visiting her mother with her two younger children. The eldest was away at college and the husband was at work. Well he was doing some work at his secretaries' house while her boyfriend was at work. You never can tell who really had the good life and who put up fronts.

I looked at the family portrait above the fireplace to see a happy family who didn't have any clue about the infidelity and secrets the husband and wife held. It almost made me sad to rob them but then again, the man was a high powered attorney with millions in his personal savings. Of course what I was here for was more than that but he still had a good slice to keep his family afloat.

Thinking I was Robin Hood was a good thought as I ghosted through the house.

Walking into the main bedroom I quickly glanced around before walking to the wife's jewelry box. She had a few valuable pieces, none that held any of the typical wear jewelry had if they were loved and constantly worn. I took those from her box before going to her husband's drawer. I rummaged through the clothes before sitting back. I know a man of his importance would have a hidden vault somewhere. The largely successful men were like dragons that hoarded their valuables, the question was, where was it?

I moved from one side of the bedroom to the other searching the nooks and crannies before moving into the closet. I checked the floor and ceiling before the wall. I smirked as my fingers felt a small indentation in the back wall behind the man's array of wallets. Could he be any more superficial? I yanked the wall open to see a black vault.

Grabbing the dial I leaned in close to the vault to listen as I twisted and turned the dial slowly, listening for that- click! I grinned before doing the same process twice more. The vault gave a louder click before it popped open.

There were stacks of cash along with more priceless jewelry and six black backs all leaned against the back of the vault. I grabbed four of the cash bundles before grabbing my real purpose. The bags went into the small pack on my bag with a victorious smile. With my prize in hand I shut the vault before putting the wallets back in place and exiting the bedroom. Back through the sliding door at the back of the house, locking with a click, I was over the wall in one bound.

When I stood up, the hair on the back of my neck stood up in warning. I stopped moving as a click sounded.

"Good job thief. Now hand the diamonds over." I glanced to the side to see a man pointing a gun at me. Probably a Glock. No silencer which was stupid as everyone in this district was paranoid about guns.

"Sorry but I have to be somewhere." The man fired a bullet. The resounding crack of gunfire had dogs all around barking and howling. The man twitched. He was nervous, which he should be.

"Hand over the diamonds and no one gets hurt." I thought about it for half a second.

"No. Do you really think you can kill me? You're afraid of the gun. You didn't even bring a silencer. Now everyone knows something bad is happening here."

"Please." His voice cracked. "I-I need a diamond."

"Why?" I asked softly. This man was too timid to be a killer or a thief. Classic good guy.

"My daughter needs the money." The brutal honesty in his voice had me second guessing before I mentally berated myself for my next actions.

"Okay. Just don't point the gun at me unless you want to be tried for murder." He lowered the gun, shaking slightly. I reached into the small pack I carried and pulled out the bundles of cash I'd stolen. "I can't give you the diamonds, but I can give you this." I placed the bundles on the ground. "You can have it. Save your daughter." I swung the pack up on my back. "Now if you excuse me, I have to go."

With that I was running down the alleyway towards the waiting car at the other end of the alley.

"Did you get the diamonds?"

"Yes." I held up my pack.

"Good. You're almost done."

"Where to now?" I asked getting comfortable for a long drive. The click of another gun had me stiffening again.

"Now, you die and take the fall for this."

The sound of gunshots in the alley was enough for frightened civilians to redial 911. Thirty minutes later a woman walking her dog came upon a body of a young woman leaning against a tree in the park.

GM NASAI: I tried writing for Bring Me To Life but I couldn't and while I was messing around this idea cam to mind. I started writing not really thinking much of it and it took off. I've never written anything like crime or mysteries and I suck at being subtle so I'd really appreciate any help you can give with reviews. And I know I already posted this chapter but my computer misinterpreted my actions. So yeah. :)
