« Ok, it's clear... »

« You sure? »

« Yeah boss. »

Two men exited through the back of Chen's Noodle House and into an alleyway with two sacks of cash thrown over their shoulders. Their faces hidden by black ski masks and their bodies hidden by black jump suits, they felt like knock off ninjas, ready to hide in the shadows of the night. The sidekick smirked as he strolled toward the street, searching for their vehicle. Following him, the boss felt uneasy. The feeling of being watched lingered in the cool autumn air.

« Yo boss? »

« Yeah? »

« Where's the car? » the boss's chocolate brown eyes widened as he stood next to his sidekick, noticing that their car had disappeared. No where to be seen. « What the hell... » he muttered to himself, looking around.

During the boss's search, the sidekick turned around, beginning to shake nervously. « Y-y-yo boss... »

« What is it now J- » he turned around to see a silhouette in the corner of the alley. Squinting his eyes, the boss placed a hand on his gun located on his belt. « W-who's there? C-c-come on o-out... » the sidekick slowly shuffled behind his boss, not ready for what was going to happen next.

Silently, the figure stepped out of the shadows. The light of the moon and streetlights shone against the metal of the figure's black and red samurai suit. Behind the mask, dark brown eyes stared the two men down. This figure was well known by the small criminals in the city. The mysterious person was able to catch a majority of the criminals within the past two years. Those who escaped said this was someone they need to watch out for. Seeing this person in real life, both men were intimidated. Despite the person not using any powers, the person had the skills.

Not wanting to stick around, the sidekick dropped his bag and made a run for it. Before the boss could do the same, the mysterious samurai lunged at the man. The person swept the boss off his little feet. Pulling out their red katana, they put the tip against the man's throat. Forgetting about his gun because of his fear, the boss laid there in surrender. Getting his gun, the samurai then grabbed out a device. Setting it on the man's chest, a net flew out of the small cube and onto the man. Immediately, the samurai ran out of the alley to try to catch up with the sidekick. Unfortunately, with the sidekick's long legs, the samurai had lost him.

« Dammit... » a low male sounding robotic voice muttered before going back down the alley. The man was still trapped under the net, which left a slight feeling of satisfaction on the samurai as they disappeared into the shadows before the police appeared to the scene. One by one, the police squad came out of their cars and went into the alley with tasers and pistols in their hands. All they found was two bags of money and one criminal under a net.

« I guess he beat us to it... » one officer said as his squad arrested the one man and searched the restaurant and area for any other suspicious activity. Watching this unfold, he knew the press would get word of this and the commissioner will have a lot of interviews again on the same topic.

« Good work guys... » the officer told his partners as they wrapped up and headed back. For the entire night, everyone wondered who the heck the mysterious vigilante was... like they did nearly every night.
