Thank you to you guys that reviewed. I love reading the reviews :) In this chappie Scipio "inpresses" Vera but he got a surprise! Vera is a thief too! Well just read (; Enjoy!
"Beautiful."
Vera froze. The voice was familiar but...She just couldn't figure out.
"The water I mean." There it was again...It came from the shadows...
"S-Scipio?" She narrowed her eyes.
Nothing...
"Am I imagining things?" She whispered to herself.
"Oi! Vera!" She heard Prosper.
She turned,"Yes?"
"Be careful, the water can get too rough. You might fall in."
She merely nodded and stepped back.
She started to hum. My Immortal by Evanescence.
Inthe shadows, Scipio was regreting ever opening his mouth. Then he heard a familiar tune. He turned to see Vera humming his song.
"Not my song..." He remembered himself.
Would she start singing? He wondered but shook his head.
He decided to move and appear infront of Mosca and Prosper. He moved.
"About time!" He heard Mosca. Scipio turned to look at Vera, by the looks of it she had stopped to hum and was walking over to them.
"Good evening to you aswell Mosca." He smiled.
"So. Where to?"
Prosper narrowed his eyes and kept looking baack from his sister to the Thief Lord.
No one but Vera noticed.
"Prosper?" She asked when Mosca and Scipio were far ahead.
"Hm?"
"Is there a reason you keep looking between Scipio and I?"
He stopped.
She turned to look at him.
Do I tell her? She might feel the same way, and... I don't want Scipio to be with her. Not until he proves himself. He thought. No wonder Honet thinks im too overprotective. He smiled at Vera.
"No." He simply said and walked away.
She was not pleased with the answer but followed them anyway. They stopped infront of the house they are to raid.
"So, how are we getting in? You're saying he has dogs!" Mosca growled at Scipio.
"We distract them." He said, not affected by Mosca's growl.
"How?" Prosper said.
"I can do it." Vera smiled,"You are going to have to wait five minutes after I go in, though."
They just stared at her.
"Alright." Scipio said.
"What? Are you mad?" Prosper frowned.
"No, actually. Im quite sane."
"Prosper just give me five minutes." Vera interrupted.
"No."
While they argued Vera became very impatient and climbed the twelve foot wall with no problem. She sat in the top and rembered something."My mask!" She whispered and put on her cat like mask.
Mosca was frustrated and turned to where Vera was at but she wasn't there,"Uh guys?" Then he looked at the wall and saw her jumping down the other side of the wall.
A sound of barking hounds was heard. Prosper and Scipio were silent.
"Where's Vera?" Scipio beat Prosper.
Mosca pointed to the house. They ran for it and struggled to climb the wall. They heard the dogs whine then there was silence.
"Hey! Mary! Jones!" They heard a man's voice. Then they heard the same dogs bark. "Good boys. Goodnight."
They climbed over the wall and saw everything was dark.
"V-Vera?" Mosca asked.
"Guys! Pst!" They heard her voice.
"Where are you?"
"Here. Just jump down!"
"What? Are you insane?"
"No, like Scipio im sane."
Scipio couldn't resist smiling.
They jumped down and to their surprise they landed on soft bushes. That is everyone but Mosca, he landed on a rose bush.
"Yo-!" He was going to yell but his mouth was covered by a small cold hand.
"Sh. I know, happened to me too." Vera whispered.
"Where are the dogs?" Prosper asked walking over to them, Scipio following him.
"Tied them up." She said and flashed the flashlight on two inormous dogs.
"They look mad..." Mosca whimpered.
"Oh they are. One bit me." She showed her right wrist where there were two holes, but no blood.
"Ouch."
"Yeah."
"So, how in the world did they answer back to the man?" Scipio asked.
"They didn't."
"Who did?"
"I did."
The looked at her.
"I made barking noises."
"But it sounded so alike them." Mosca stared wide eyed.
"Yeah well, I'm just good at it. Dropping the subject. He has a pretty impressive security system. I can probably pass by it and shut enough to make a path for you."
"Im comming with you." Scipio said.
"Fine." Prosper frowned,"Mosca and I will wait here, meanwhile you two find a way to clear a path."
"Okay."
"Hurry."
Vera and Scipio walked to the main entrance.
"How are going to do this?" Scipio asked.
"Well...All the doors and windows will be tampered with and when we leave we'll want to make it look like there was no forced entrance...I suggest...The skylight?"
"That is on the roof."
"Yes."
"Aren't girls afraid of heights?" He asked when they started to cllimb the wall, from windowsill to windowsill.
"Aren't boys suppose to be kind to girls? You know, Prince Charming." She said the prince's name in a dreamy voice.
"Prince Charming." He scoffed,"You actually believe in that fairytale nonsense."
She stopped.
"Vera?" He asked.
She continued moving but said nothing. The was to the skylight was silent. Up until the moment they arrived it.
"How are we going to-?"
She took off her gloves and grabbed the window from the edges and slowly took it off. Scipio was wide eyed.
She slid in. He follwed. He followed her nearly half accross the house. He watched her tamper with afew switches.
She walked to the door and opened it.
"Mosca. Prosp." She called out and the two boys came in.
They took some jewels, gold, silver, and Vera took a small necklace that she liked.
They had everything ready to go. Vera turned on the alarms and untied the dogs. They left the house as it was, of course without some treasures.
When they arrived the Stella, Vera went directly to sleep with only a goodnight to Hornet and Bo.
Scipio went to his mansion sad.
What did I say? Does she hate me? Does she really believe in those fairytales? Why was she offended.
Scipio went to sleep with those questions and with great remorse.
You like-y? Hahah I hope you did. P.s. When I underlined Vera and Scipio I just did it to do it. Hahah Im pretty sure it's going to be rare when their name will be put togeether like that. One more thing: There is a small hint in the first chappie of why Vera and Scipio are perfect for each other. Thank you. I'll update soon.
