DISCLAIMER: I do not own Sue Thomas FBeye or any of its characters, so if you recognize a person from this program or any other (I might put in a cameo here and there), know that I do not own them at all. All scenarios and people that you do not recognize, I own that, though they might be inspired from something else, but in no way is it copying them. If I am missing something in this copyright notice, please let me know!

KEY: Italics are a memory, and all caps is ASL. Sorry, some of my ASL grammar is bad. I only know some ASL, so if anyone knows how to properly say any sentences I write in ASL, please let me know, and I will change it to be how it should be! Also, I hate constantly writing about people wearing masks. So if they're in a public place, just imagine everyone wearing masks, please!

NOTE: So I heard that packages in DC are quite often stolen right from the doorstep, and I had an idea for this story. So just so you know, this is based on truth, though I have probably embellished on it a bit :)

CONGRATULATIONS Roban05! It wasn't a trivia, but I'm so anxious for you to continue reading, I'll give it to you cause you're right! Not in this one, but in the coming stories! You'll see when you get there!

"Well, we're off!" Carla exclaimed as she picked up her suitcases that were sitting by the door as she smiled at her daughter.

"Bye, Mom, have fun!" Sue said before kissing her Mom on the cheek.

"And you'll be alright by yourself?"

"Yes, of course. I'm a big girl." She assured, nodding and smiling.

"Of course you are!" Carla exclaimed, then smiled at her daughter and walked out the front door.

"Bye, you two!" Sue yelled as Carla got into Bob's car. Bob waved his hello and goodbye out the driver's side window.

Once the car was out of sight, Sue closed the front door, and walked back down to the den, where her team was working. Once downstairs, she felt her phone in her pocket vibrate. Seeing the notification, she smiled as she sat in her seat.

Tara waved for her attention. "Something interesting?" She said and signed when Sue looked at her.

She nodded in reply. "I just got a notification that my wedding dress will be delivered today from Ohio. My brothers shipped it over from my Mom's storage container there. We didn't move everything here."

"NICE!" Amy exclaimed, seeing what her friend had said.

Sue nodded and smiled as she logged onto her computer, but upon immediately entering, she sighed and slouched.

"WRONG WHAT?" Shane asked, seeing her.

"FORGET ME HAVE OFFICE MEETING TODAY." She replied.

"Nothing bad, I hope." Josh said.

Sue shook her head. "No, no, nothing like that. It's just a status meeting. Can you believe we've been together as a group for nearly a year?"

"No, not in the least!" Tara replied, chuckling as she shook her head. "It feels like forever, yet no time at all!" She said and signed

"SAME FOR ME!" Amy replied.

Sue smiled as she nodded as well. "Yes, it's been a very good year." She said as she packed her things. "Well, I'm off to the office. I will see you this afternoon when I get back."

"Say hi to Jack and the team for me!" Tara called after her.

"How did you know I was going to see Jack afterwards?" She asked, curious.

She smiled widely and shrugged. "A wild guess."

Sue shook her head and laughed as she turned to leave.

"I see the Shipping Bandit is at it again." Mya said, reading the latest headlines on her computer as she ate her lunch and waited for a search to complete.

"I'm sorry, what?" Myles asked, mystified by what she said.

"Aw, come one. Don't tell me you haven't heard of him. He's the talk of the town!" Bobby complained at him.

"Unlike you, I watch the dignified news, not that of talking of modern day bandits." He replied proudly.

"Really? You haven't heard of him? At all? He's all over the place!" Sarah exclaimed.

"I don't think I'd go that far." Jack added.

"But who is this bandit?" Myles asked.

"No one knows." Mya said mysteriously. "All anyone knows is that almost immediately after a high-priced item gets delivered, it's stolen straight off the doorstep, no one seeing it ever again, and no one seeing a thing." She explained, then smiled. "It's quite ingenious."

"But bad." Bobby added.

Sarah nodded. "If we thought the mail in DC was bad before, this is just the beginning of getting worse."

"Are we on the case?" Mya asked.

Jack shook his head. "No. it's Metro PD's case. The Bandit hasn't done anything to merit the FBI's attention."

"Yet." Bobby added.

He slightly smiled in reply. "Yet. Hopefully Metro PD will catch them before they actually do something where we need to investigate them."

"Aw, come on. You wouldn't want to get this guy yourself?" He asked his friend.

Jack cocked his head in consideration. It would peak my interest, yes. But we have so many more important cases we should be working on, like the one that's on our desks right now?" He hinted.

"Yeah, but that's an open and shut case! Just a technicality! This one would actually make us think, something I love doing." Mya said.

"Oh, just go write your stories. There's your excitement. I for one like the bit of quiet." Myles proudly said.

"Oh?" Jack asked. "Normally you're itching for excitement the same as us."

"Then maybe you don't have anything exciting planned for your weekend." He replied.

"And I'm guessing you do." Bobby said.

Myles nodded. "Yes, I do. Cathi and I are going to take a hike."

Everyone chuckled at the sight that came to their minds. "And when do we get to see you hiking? Ever?" Jack asked.

"Well, if you'd like, and I have to ask Cathi, but you and Sue can come with us, like a double date."

"Really?" Jack asked, surprised by the invitation.

"Yes!" He replied matter-of-factly.

"I will talk to Sue, but plan on us being there. I wouldn't miss hiking with you for the world."

"Alright, then. I'll go talk to Cathi." He said, getting up and walking out of the room.

"You do that!" Jack called after him, still laughing.
