"Warning, intruder alert! I repeat, intruder alert!" the alarm system screamed. "Intruder is in sector 1, lock down procedures initiate."
A figure ran for cover dodging the closing door, barely avoiding being crushed. The new room could hardly be called such, it was more of an elevator shaft really and seemed to continue to the very center of the earth. The intruder reached into a small black backpack and took out a screw driver, mini computer, and roller blades. They then removed a panel in the wall and attached the mini computer to the port revealed, beginning the program, afterwards replacing the paneling. The computer now hidden, the intruder quickly put on the roller blades. Knowing time was short the intruder jumped down the shaft using the blades to gain momentum, wishing a pair of AT's wouldn't have been detected immediately. A rumbling sound filled the vertical corridor, the intruder blanched, and though security was here could not stop so close to the objective.
"There's the case," the intruder thought, "reach..." his arm screamed at him for the over extension"got ya."
The intruder quickly came to a stop on one of the many metal cables lining the shaft, slightly nervous as he prepared for phase two. The rumbling of the elevator got louder and the intruder quickly observed their surroundings for a place to hide, finding nothing immediate they could only back away from the center of the shaft where the elevator was descending Being so close to the wall he could feel the slight thrum of machinery at work. Taking out another screwdriver, a flashlight, as well as a detonator like button, they approached the paneling, the intruder tried to devise some method of escape. However, as the panel was removed and the one behind it only dirt and useless wiring was shown. Quickly removing the roller blades the intruder threw them into the center then they pressed the button. The elevator stopped as the power was killed, main and backup.
"Phase two success," he said with a grin as the air around him stirred softly. He remained still for a few moments catching his breath for the endurance test ahead.
After slipping the case into a now almost empty backpack the intruder began to climb, groaning slightly at the increase in weight. It was a long way up and the steel cables made his job much easier, it was still painfully slow going as every moment he dreaded the lights going on. Luckily his tech people are amazing and about half way up the tunnel there were stairs, when he makes it that high he can speed up. Discarding his second thoughts the intruder climbed faster along. When the elevator finally came into view the intruder was almost to the stairs, but had been heard for quite some time. Whoever was in there was trying to get out, but it was no use. That elevator held many storm rider battles over the years and had virtually no chinks in its armor. Still the intruder decided to err on the side of caution and moved more slowly and cautiously, he may be cocky enough to try to steal from them but he is always serious during a heist. After gaining the stairs the intruder began to run, swiftly and silently towards the freedom of open air. The stairs wound around the shaft and the length the intruder would have to run was many miles in length, the schematics of the building had indicated it would be a 6 mile run.
"Two miles left that's it and I'll exit using the roof," the intruder thought, having been running a while already.
Suddenly, the lights turned on blinding him temporarily. Sweaty and exhausted, feeling the burn and protest of his muscles the intruder picked up the pace taking only 8 minutes for both miles knowing pursuit would be quick. His aching muscles would be the last of his worries if he got caught, he knew and that egged him on. Despite that the elevator was gaining and would arrive in two minutes. The intruder once again pulled out a detonator stood flat against the wall and hit the button. A huge explosion rocked the corridor as debris flew down the tunnel, slightly slowing the elevator as the intruder escaped sporting only minor injuries from the explosion. Dodging external security as easily as they executed the whole operation, the intruder disappeared. As he did he couldn't help but grin, this would be the best birthday present ever.
