Part Nineteen

The old man left the bathroom after he flushed. About seven minutes later when I heard that guy snoring I climbed out of the shower and snuck around down to the kitchen. I began to look in the cookie jars for any money that he might have laying around. Then I found it in another room. It was a really expensive looking desk. I took a few tools out of it's containment pouch on my hip and cracked open the drawer.

Inside the drawer there was just a whole bunch of papers and official- looking documents. I pushed the drawer back inside and continued to look around. I made my way out to the living room and found a purse. I opened it and looked inside.

There was a wallet lying inside and when I opened it up I saw about five hundred dollars. I smiled to myself and slipped the money into my breast pocket.

Growling came from behind me. I slowly turned around and saw a giant German Shepherd, it's teeth showing. *Oh crap.* I thought right before it jumped. I jumped up into the rafters that was supporting this old house's living room. Sparkey, down there, decided to start to bark at me.

*Why couldn't Manticore install invisibility into our DNA?* I wonder dully as I pull the ski mask over my face. The lights click on and a man falls down the stairs; with a shotgun. I hop over to the chimney and hide in the shadows of it.

The old man put a leash on the dog and began to walk around looking for me. Luckily they passed me even though the dog was barking up at me. I jumped down off the beam I was standing on and looked up at the man who was starring at me. He released the dog and I look at the door to see if it's locked; it is.

I fly out the window that was right next to the door and land in a bush with the dog on my tail. I jump up and book it out of there running down the street at a pretty fast speed, but not fast enough to get anyone suspicious. I finally make it to my motorcycle and ride off into the night feeling glad that I did at least get some money.

I make my way to Cap Sante and jump up onto the rock and look down on the small peaceful town. I see that the police are going to the old man's house and I laugh to myself. Truthfully I don't know what's so funny, but I just start to laugh like crazy.

When I calm down I lay down on my stomach looking down at the city before long I am falling asleep, and I don't even care about anything in the world except for getting to sleep.

Okay, I know that was a very short chapter so I'm posting another right after this. So reply with what you think please.
