== ALRIGHT. AND YOU. TROLL GIRL. WHAT IS YOUR NAME?

Um, Feferi. And I can't really talk right now either.

== WHY ARE YOU WITH THIS CRIMINAL?

I don't have a choice! I don't want to further disappoint my parents.

== OK. YOU TWO HAVE FUN WITH WHATEVER YOU'RE DOING. I'LL LEAVE YOU ALONE.

Thank you…

Yes, thanks. :)

The two trolls continued forward after being interrupted by a strange voice. They snuck down the dark hallways lite only by the occasional flicker of a night guard's flashlight. Because of the holiday, most of the night guards weren't at their usual posts, making it easy for thieves and robbers to sneak inside. Feferi tightly held the floor map of the Trollian Bank while Eridan led her to the large vault hidden in the middle of the building. Each of them had a large bag slung over their shoulders for carrying as much cash as they possibly can.

As both of them arrived at a corner, Feferi unraveled the map, and pointed out where they were. Eridan nodded and pulled out a short tranquilizer gun from his leather jacket.

Shifting his head around the corner, he spotted the vault they were after. Standing beside it were the two night guards he was warned about. Having a lot of experience with gun weaponry, he fired two darts into the night guard's leg. They both fell to the ground unconscious.

"Alright, Gam." Eridan whispered into the microphone attached to his ear. "I got them both dowwn. Wwhat do wwe do noww?"

"Ok, bro. Listen up." Gamzee spoke back through the crackling earpiece. "To open the vault, you gonna have to scan the hand of the guard on the right. Then pull the vault open and collect as much as you can. Got that, bro?"

"Understood."

Eridan motioned Feferi to follow. They both crept down the corridor towards the two unconscious guards. Picking up the guard on the right side from under the shoulders, Eridan placed the guards hand onto the scanner panel.

The panels color switched to green and the vault clicked open.

== YOU THERE.

*snore*

== HEY, TROLL. WAKE UP.

*snort* huh? What?

== GOOD. WHO ARE YOU?

Ugh, you woke me up from my nap, athhole.

== NEVER MIND THAT. ANSWER THE QUESTION.

Fine. I'm Captain Thollux Captor. Leave me alone, I haven't thlept in five dayth.

== SOLLUX CAPTOR. THE TROLLIAN BANK IS BEING ROBBED.

What? No itth not. If it wath, the alarm would have thounded by now.

== ARE YOU SURE?

Yeth. That bank hath the betht thecurity money can buy. If thome athhole wath robbin it, the alarm would thound and the thieveth would be arrethted.

== OK. SUIT YOURSELF.

Now let me nap.

== HAVE A GOOD REST, CAPTAIN CAPTOR. YOU'RE GOING TO NEED IT.

Whatever. *snore*

"You got evverythin, Fef?" Eridan muttered to his partner.

"As much as I can glubbin carry." Feferi whispered back.

Both trolls slipped out of the open vault with bags stuffed with wads of cash. They tiptoed past the night guards (again) and walked right out the front door. Sitting in parkinglot for the bank was a large black van. The drivers seat was taken up by a large troll; his long black hair was half pulled up in a ponytail, his eyes covered up by cracked sunglasses, and his right horn broken off at the base. The passenger seat had a smaller troll with shaggy, super dark brown hair and goat horns, his face covered with messy clown makeup.

"What took you quys so long?" Gamzee exclaimed, sticking his head out the window as Eridan and Feferi climed into the back. There were no chairs except the two in the front, so they stood the whole time.

"Wwell excuse me, Gam." Eridan argued. "It takes a wwhile to gather evverythin in there." He threw the bag of cash at the very back of the van where all the gun weaponry and extra bullets lay.

"Now isn't the time to argue." Equius said from the drivers seat.

"I knoww." Eridan slid open the moon roof and looked up at the twinkling stars.

"It's a pretty calm night. Almost like the whole city is sleeping." Gamzee sighed. He placed the police radio on the floor next to his feet and leaned back on the chair.

"Almost." Feferi muttered, sitting down on the floor of the van.

"It's a nice night for a chase, isn't it?" Eridan asked.

Equius turned in his chair. "Eridan, no. You had enough trouble getting into the building. I don't want to drive all across town with eleven police cars behind us."

"Oh, come on, Eq. I wwon't make it such a big wworry for you. Wwe havven't gotten awway from the cops in three wweeks."

"No. I refuse to do this."

"Come on. It wwill be fun!"

"Yeah, Equius bro." Gamzee smiled. "Don't you love out-driving the fuzz?"

"Alright, fine." Equius sighed. "Go ahead."

"Yes!" Eridan cheered to himself. "Fef, hand me the pistol ovver there."

Feferi leaned back and tossed the hand gun to Eridan. Eridan possisioned the weapon in his hand. He stuck his head out the top of the van and fired a shot into the banks front window.

The alarm system went crazy. Lights flashed inside and the ringing woke up all the buildings within its perimeter.

"WWOOHOO!" Eridan yelled into the night as the van began to speed onto the street. "Noww this is wwhat I call fun!"

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

"Captain! Wake up!"

"CAPTOR! YOU SLEEPING ON DUTY AGAIN?"

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

Sollux squinted at the flashing light of the alarm. The constant beeping of the alarm wasn't the only thing that woke him up.

"ON YOUR FEET, CAPTAIN! WE HAVE A ROBBERY!"

"WHAT?" Sollux yelled, falling out of his chair.

"I SAID GET UP!" He was pulled onto his feet by a forcefull hand. Sollux stood at attention.

"Thorry, Cheif Vantath." Sollux apoligized.

"UGH. This is not the time OR the place!" Cheif Vantas yelled over the blazing alarm. "Get down to MidRed Street right now! I need you to go in persuit of a large black van heading east!"

"Yeth thir!" Sollux saluted to his superior.

"Take Lt. Pyrope with you! You're going to need the extra help!"

"Yes sir, Cheif!" Terezi said, following Sollux as he ran down the loud hallway to the garage. Half the policemen had already left to follow the black van, so it wasn't crowded.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

"Damn it!" Sollux huffed, still in full sprint to the garage. "What bank wath robbed thith time?"

"It was the Trollian Bank, Captain!" Terezi stated. "But when we looked at video, the robbery was already done!"

Fuck! Sollux thought to himself. I thould have payed attention to that voithe I heard earlier!
