Hey, guys. Some of you are probably wondering where my other story "Expectations and Realizations" went. Well, I deleted it. But don't worry, "Hidden Memories" is still fresh and going! Anyways I got really inspired to make this fanfic because I watched a movie yesterday and I wanted to see if this would do any good. And plus, my school is off because of the snow so I'm sorta bored.

Disclaimer: I do not own the Percy Jackson characters

They've been trying to catch him for days now.

This guy was just too good. It seems to Jason that everywhere they know the thief is going to be there, he knows ahead of time and goes somewhere else. From just the past month, this guy had stolen from five banks, three malls, and one hotel. When this case first started out, Jason was positive this guy had been an amateur and didn't really worry that much. But now he realized he should have done something while he could have because now, there was no stopping this man.

Jason had ordered many people to go out and search for this thief while he focused on other "more important" crimes, as he used to call it. But now, he knew the consequences he was going through because of his foolish mistakes. He should have known the thief wasn't going to be that dumb enough to not have a plan. Jason swore to never underestimate thieves again.

Now, as he was watching the news which showed another robbery by the man in another mall, he was determined to catch him. Or at least get a glance at what he looks like. Because what Jason knows about thieves, is that they love masks. Because they're cowards. If they were so confident enough to steal and rob knowing that a police was bound to catch them eventually, why would they wear masks? Jason doesn't quite get that, but isn't that what bothers cops so much about thieves? Their masks?

Seeing enough of the news, he fiercely shuts off the TV, grabs his coat and keys, and walks out the door. Once he's in his police car, he programs his GPS to the mall and slams the accelerator. Since he's a cop, he puts the flashing lights on and storms down the highway. Once he's reached the mall, he starts sending cops around the perimeter to surround the thief. He smiles. He thinks he's finally got him. It takes him two hours of searching to realize he's dead wrong. Again. For about the tenth time that month. He should really stop underestimating them.

Another robbery. Another, another, and another. Jason has had enough. All he wants to do is grab that robber by the neck and strangle him to death. Is that so much to ask for? What is the guy even doing with the money, anyways? Surely, he knows better than to do that? With that much money, he will definitely be drawing attention to himself wherever he is.

Something interrupts him in his thoughts. A letter on his desk. From the thief itself.

He's been getting those for a while now. That's why he's more obsessed with this investigation than the rest of his crew. Because he gets the letters and not them. The letters tease him about how he still fails to catch the thief. He feels tormented and its driving him mad. But this one... it's different. It still teases him, but it challenges him. A challenge he's willing to accept.

Dear idiot you call a cop,

You really want to find me that bad don't you? I'll tell you what. I'll make a deal with you. You say cops are the good guys and they always catch the thieves because cops are always one step ahead of the thieves. But you don't get it do you? Us thieves can walk straight by you and you won't even notice. And I know you don't think that way; you think you will notice. So I challenge you. Meet me at Central Park at 2 pm; that's my next my robbery plan. I will literally walk straight by you and you won't notice. If you notice in time, I'll let you take me to jail without hesitation. But if you don't, and you won't, you stop this silly charade you call "working" once and for all. Just drop it.

Jason has no other choice. He has to accept it. If he doesn't, he just might lose this case forever and he probably won't ever know who's the mastermind behind all this shit. But if he does, he just might lose his job. He doesn't care. This is only chance. He's going for it.

But this time, he's going to put on a mask of his own.

So, what do you think? Is it good? Please tell me if I should continue or not.

I like reviews by the way!

Till next time,
