Disclaimer: I do not own the suite life of Zack and Cody, I will never hope to. I am in no way saying that anyone in this story is the same in real life. This story is FICTION, in other words, the plot is fake.

Chapter 1: The Heist.

Zack awoke with a pain in his side. Startled, he looked around to see his twin brother Cody and their room, or how he thought of it, his prison. Suddenly he remembered why his side hurt, he had to listen to two scream matches directed at him, so he didn't have time to eat. He snuck out of his room only to be stopped cold by a loud burst, "Oh Mr. Clooney tell me again how you saved the chipmunks!"

Recovering from the shock Zack snuck past his delusional mother and crept out the door.

His plan was simple, sneak past the night watch and grab some candy from the candy counter. Once the elevator's doors opened, Zack looked out to find… Nothing, no one was there, it was completely empty. Zack, being a D student, thought nothing of it.

Zack got his pockets full of Nutragious bars and he started to head for the elevator when, all of a sudden, several shady characters walked into the lobby. Zack dove back behind the candy counter, luckily, the men hadn't seen his wild feat.

"Nice job Joey, that was a nice way to clear out the place!"

"Yeah! There's no one here to keep us from looting, eh Pain!"

"Both of you shut up! I want to get in and out of this in one swoop!" the bulky one that was clearly the leader said.

Both the goons responded, "Yes Toney…"

Out of nowhere the elevator let out a mood shattering "Bing!" Everyone in the room was suddenly alert.

Zack cursed under his breath, he had not realized that he had hit the button to go up before he dove behind the counter. He took a chance and made a break for the elevator, only to run into the one called Pain just before he reached the door.

"What do we have here, a spy perhaps?"

Before Zack could respond a strip of black cloth was tied around his head, piercing through his lips, mumbling his statement to, "MMMMPH!"

Just as this was happening the doors to the elevator closed, Zack happened to be close enough that his pajamas got stuck in the door. As the elevator went up, his pants & shirt ripped off leaving him in only his blue boxers.

We better go tie the punk up in the van… use the good rope we don't want him getting away, the rest of you take as much as you can on your way out!" ordered Toney. 'We didn't get the money, JH will be mad. Maybe he will forgive us when he sees what we got him instead.'

Zack struggled trying to get out of Pain's grip, that is, until a knife was stuck against his throat, then he immediately went limp. Zack was then thrown into the back of a small workman van.

So... there's chapter 1, Please review, I will have chapter 2 up sometime today. And I know the elevator thing was kinda convoluted but i couldn't think of any way to get Zack to show off his body while he is tied up.
