The light was fading and the temperature was dropping. I took a deep breath in. The cold April air of Washington filled my lungs. The black leather jacket that I stole from a high school last year, did little to keep the evening chill out. I pulled in tight around me as I leaned my shoulder on the wall of the motel. It was a small, crappy motel. I probably wouldn't have the best luck here, but places like these were easy hunting grounds. My eyes scanned the parking lot, but saw nothing extravagant. I was about to settle for an old white pickup truck, when I heard the luxurious purr of something much better. I watched in awe as a black 1967 Chevy Impala rolled up next to the lobby across the parking lot from me. My knees nearly buckled, but I kept my cool. I knew better then to give myself away with anything like that. I took a deep breath and watched the car as the engine shut off. Two men stepped out. The driver was tall with broad shoulders. The man on the passenger's side was taller than his companion. They both walked into the lobby and came back out a few minutes later. They each grabbed a duffle bag from the back seat and began to walk my way. They walked along the long, half covered hallway of doors to the rooms. I could make out their features better as they drew closer. The one with broad shoulders had short, light brown hair. His eyes were bright green and he had a dash of freckles over his nose. His tall companion had long dark brown hair and darker green eyes. Both men were attractive. They were only a few feet in front of me now. I looked up and made eye contact with both men. I flashed them a smile.

"Howdy, boys." I said sweetly, in a Southern accent. I know from experience when speaking to your victims before hand, don't use your regular voice. The tall man nodded and smiled slightly. The freckled man looked cautions for a second, then turned his head forward and didn't acknowledge my existence. I watched them as they walked down to their room, which happened to be the room farthest from their car. I smirked and picked up my back pack that had been lying at my feet. I knew better then to steal a car while it was still even slightly light outside. I slung my back pack over my shoulder and went to find a place to wait until dark.

The little town in which the beat-up motel resided in was an easy place to waste time in. At least, for me it was. I walked around for about an hour. I found a little burger joint that had decent milkshakes; I didn't stay long enough for the bill to show up. I found a map of the state and plotted my next move once I had my ride. Once the sun had set and the night had begun, indefinitely, I headed back to the motel. When I walked into the parking lot, I noticed the car was still there and most of the lights in the motel had been shut off. The window to the room of the two men was dark like the others, so was the lobby. I quickly scanned the surrounding area for any people, but I was alone. There were no security cameras that I could see either. Every time I did this, I was thankful for cheap managers that couldn't afford security. I quietly walked over to the sleek, black car and swung my backpack in front of me. Inside were all the things I needed. I pulled out mu trusted lock pick and began working on the driver's side lock. I heard it click and I slowly eased the door open. I slid inside and shut it quietly behind me. The wires to start the car were down by the pedals. I had plenty of time to master the art of hot wiring cars. Let's just say this wasn't my first time. I got the two wires ready. I knew I would have to make a quick getaway. The car owners would surely hear the engine of their car roaring away. Mentally prepared, I zapped the car to life and quickly slammed it into reverse. The wheels screeched and smoked as I sped away from the motel. Speeding away behind me, I could see the figures of the two men in front of the motel, illuminated by its blue glow. I chuckled to myself.

"Sorry, boys. This baby's mine now."
