The Adventures of the
God Squad
Episode 70 "A Quest for a Thief"
Part 1
Since Death and Red Night had access to our mutant formula, and had powers of their own, we needed to steal their supply of the formula and destroy all the plans and records they had on the formula so they wouldn't be able to create any more mutants. The army was a big enough surprise, but now that Death and Night also had powers had gone too far, let alone the fact that Death now had the powers of a telekinetic! We needed to get into their compounds and destroy their supplies. After that, we would need the help of an infiltrator to help us get into the facility and destroy all data and knowledge of the formula from their computer data base. But getting in wasn't really going to be the real issue, the true problem was finding the right thief, but I think I knew just the person for the job.
(Theme Song)
The reason why I didn't just go myself or chose one of my saboteurs to do it was because we had got into Death's facilities a few times and each tactic we used to get in, he made sure that we couldn't use it again. That was why we needed the help of someone off the streets. I had one person in mind who would help us, given the right persuasion. The person I had in mind, was a thief who we had been chasing for a while, but had finally caught. His name was Lurk Shadow: he was a master thief, possessed amazing stealth abilities that even surpassed my own! Was a great fighter and he only killed when he had to.
I ordered him to be brought into the council room for a chat. When they brought him in, I asked for him to be un-cuffed and to sit down across from me. "Lurk, we meet once more." I began. "Yup, how long has it been? First there was the bank, then the prison, then the weapons depot, the explosions, and Oh yes, now I remember, you left me to die!" He said standing up and slamming the table, but I didn't flinch. "I have a proposition for you Shadow. Something I think you will be very interested in." I continued. "Heh! What could you offer me that I would want?" he asked smiling and sitting down and putting his feet on the table. "3 things: high risk stealth, offence on Death and lots of money." I told him. Lurk looked at me, smiled and said "I'm listening." he said slyly, leaning in closer.
I explained to him what the plan was and that he would be rewarded "most greatly". "What are we talking about, money wise?" he asked. "5,000,000,000, an aircraft, and new weapons. Does that sound satisfying enough?" I asked him smiling and rubbing my fingers on a coin. Lurk's face lit up with shock, then smiled and asked "What about Death?". "He's my problem." I replied. "He's everybody's problem! The only way that I'll agree to your deal is if you promise me revenge on Death." He demanded. I put my hands together and said "Agreed. Once we have destroyed all the supplies, and you terminate all the data, Death is all yours." I said as we both smiled at each other. We shook hands and headed to the armoury to gear up and then to the map room to think of a plan. We equipped Lurk with high-end weapons and gear to make his job easier and the then we started to think of the plan.
Lurk suggested plan after plan, but we had used all of them already, but then he had one more idea. He analyzed the blueprint of the facility and said "If you can get one of your men to air system control panel on the lower levels, then you could fit through the pipes and make your way to the armoury. Once you're in there, you'll make your way through kitchen, then through the Mess (Diner), find the secret panel to the supply room, plant the bombs and escape through a ventilation shaft that leads to the outside of the facility. While you're doing this, I'll climb the wall to the facilities top floor, drill through the wall, take out the guards, and erase all records of the formula data. "I like it!" I said. I turned on my communicator "Joseph, get me Noah."
Me and Noah did as Lurk instructed and we got in, planted the bombs, and made our through the ventilation shaft, but when we made our way through, we entered a room where 60 of Death's troop's were waiting, guns armed and ready! "Lurk has betrayed us!" I said to Noah as we raised our hands in surrender.
