"Marcello, We can not forget what they have done," Damien said
"I know, but we can't keep going along with their leader," Marcello said
"Remember. What they have done to Dad," Damien said
Marcello had a flashback.
He watches through a broken window of the Tiger eye layer of their father talking to the leader
"Are you going to speak? Or do I have to forcefully get it out of you," The leader said
Marcello could not get a good look at them,
"I don't talk to cowards," his father said
He spat on his shoes
"You foolish man. You think I need you to know where the traitors are," They said
They pointed up to Marcello,
"I don't need you anymore," they said giving their minions a nod.
They shot his father,
Marcello placed his hand on the window watching his father bleed out,
he looked at his son one last time before life left him.
"Marcello .... Marcello. Marcello. MARCELLO!," Luke said
"What," Marcello said
"Damien called us and said that you spaced out again," Renato said
"Yeah, I'm alright," Marcello said
"That's a bunch of nonsense,
you are not alright This is the fifth time you've done that!" Damien said
He got a glass of water and gave it to Marcello,
"Thanks,"
"You're welcome," Damien said
"Hey, isn't the tiger eye going to rob a bank tonight?" Luke said concerned,
"Yes, I have my insider told me that this morning, you didn't listen in did you?" Marcello asked
"Yeah, it sounds important and I couldn't help to stop and listen," Luke said
"Everybody get your guns and knives, let's stop them," Renato said
"Are you the new member?" Snake asked
"Yes, I am," Avalon said nervously,
"Fine, may I see your ID," Snake said
"Yeah sure," Avalon said
"Please don't know it's fake," Avalon thought
Snake scanned the ID while Avalon was sweating from stress,
he glanced at her, watching her mess with her hand nervously, odd for someone who wanted to join.
"You're good to go, but don't try anything funny," Snake says
"Thank you," Avalon said,
She took the ID and walked into the leader's office,
"Yes, it worked," Avalon thought
she knocked on the door,
"You may come in," The leader said
Avalon walked in while she closed the door behind her.
"You're the new member? I expected better," The leader said
Their back faced her not bothering to look at her. Avalon pinched her arm, stopping from retorting,
It will wreak everything,
"Look at Miss or Mr personality," Avalon thought
"Hello I'm Avalon," Avalon said
She walks up to their desk and makes them turn to her,
showing Avalon what she's dealing with.
"At least you don't look too bad," Tiger's eye said
"Rude much, "Avalon thought
She took in her details,
black hair at the top of her head and light orange tips, yellowish green eyes, tan skin, black crop top, tiger print jacket, black ripped jeans, an orange cat in her arms,
"Umm... Thanks," Avalon said,
She looked at her feet, nervous,
I have to complete it, I have to.
"Don't start getting shy on me. Are you ready for your first mission?" Tiger eye said
She puts her cat down,
"Already?" Avalon said out loud,
"Yes, why don't think you're up for it?" Tiger eye said
Avalon noticed the suspicious look in her eyes.
"Don't you think it's too early," Avalon said
Tiger eye moves closer to her,
taking a piece of her hair in between her fingers and twirling the hair before looking into Avalon's silver eyes,
"I have high expectations of you," Tiger Eye said
"No matter, your mission to rob the bank on Applewood Street," Tiger Eye said
Avalon grunts from Tiger yanking her hair and pulling her closer.
She whispered in Avalon's ear.
"If you fail me... I won't hesitate to kill you,"
Tiger moves away from her,
leaving her skittish, but she noticed a look in her eyes,
"All I see is darkness and despair in her eyes," Avalon thought
"Yes, ma'am," Avalon said Quickly,
"Good girl, Snake will show you the way," Tiger Eyes said
She patted Avalon's cheek,
Avalon stands there conflicted,
Snake entered the room,
his eyes landed on Avalon,
"Let's go," Snake said
He grabbed her arm and dragged her out of the office,
"I don't know about her," Tiger Eyes said,
"Let's see what we have here," Renato said
They are on the roof of a building near the bank, he's holding binoculars and passing them to Luke,
"Do you see anything, Luke?" Marcello said
Luke gave the binoculars to Renato,
"No nothing yet, when did you say they will be here?" Luke said
"They would be here around eight to nine," Marcello said looking at his watch,
"Hey, I see a van," Damien said
He points, taking the binoculars from Renato and taking him with them still around his neck,
"Hey!," Renato Said
"They're here, Luke can you hack into the system," Marcello asked
The van parked in front of the bank,
"Yeah, but it's going to take a while," Luke said, getting his bag with his laptop,
"Good, we will give you the time you need, Renato Damien you two ready," Marcello said
He turns to them and sees them fighting on the ground, they look up at Marcello,
"Yeah, we are ready," they said
"Ok you two, let's go," Marcello said,
He climbed down the building,
"Alright, here's how it will go, we get into the bank,"
Avalon watched him talk booking him out with her thoughts,
"If anything goes south, you get back to..."
"This is not how the plan was supposed to go," Avalon thought
"Alright, let's go in," Snake Eyes said
he put on a Halloween mask,
"Here your mask," a Member said
They handed it to her and got out of the van, not bothering to wait for her.
She put on her mask and followed them,
"EVERYONE HANDS IN THE AIR, AND NO ONE WILL GET HURT!" Snake yelled
Most of the people put their hands up and got on their knees,
some of the members put duffle bags on the countertop,
"Put the money in the bags," Member commands
"Hey newbie, get over here and help will you," A member yelled at her,
"Ok…," Avalon said
An explosion was heard in the doors of the bank, breaking the doors,
making the glass break and fly into the air,
"SURRENDER OR BE DESTROYED!," Marcello yelled
"Attack," Snake yelled
Snake yells at the members to get their guns out, starting to shoot at them,
Marcello rolled over to a desk that's been kicked down,
"No," Avalon thought
She ducked as gunshots were heard,
Marcello watched Renato duck behind a wall and then look for Damien who was running at one of the members.
"Damien, what are you doing?" Renato yelled
The member raises his gun at him and is about to pull the trigger when he is toppled over by Damien,
who slides under the desk, tripping them.
"I'll make..."
Damien kicked them in the face, knocking them out,
he grabs the gun and shoots the members next to him from under the desk,
"What are you doing? Shoot them!" Snake
shouts
Avalon hears the desperation in his voice and decides to help,
by grabbing the member that gave her the mask,
"Stop that ya,"
Renato takes this chance to run up to them, jumping over the desks and punching them down.
"Someone any..."
Renato lifts his arm ready to punch them,
he yelled in pain having a bullet shot through his arm,
ending up having the barrel pressed into his shoulder,
"Give up, "Snakes says
Renato swiftly ducks under the gun, kicking Snake's arm and making him drop the gun.
Snakes move away from him,
Renato looks up at him, eyes filled with fire.
"Never,"
Snake felt his shoulder being ripped through. He falls on the floor.
Renato looked over at Luke who gave him a thumb,
"Never what fool are you,"
Renato looked behind him,
"This is a stupid way to die," Renato says
they scoffed at him,
"What do you mean by that?" They asked
"To get killed by a person with no talent is a fate worse than death," Renato says
This pissed them off nicely,
they aimed the rifle at him and pulled the trigger at him laughing,
"I have no talent. Eat lead,"
Renato moved away from some of the bullets, but he got nicked in his leg,
Renato leaned on a desk looking at them,
the fire was still there but hazy and they stopped shooting.
"Now all I,"
they got hit in the head by Marcello who dropped the gun and ran to him,
Marcello tells Luke through the mic,
"Get the van now, we got a situation,"
"On it," Luke responded
"Marcello, I'm fine, I got the vest if anything it nicked me," Renato says
Marcello helped him up and heard movement behind him,
Marcello turned to find one of the members helping Snake up and moving to the back of the building,
he looked at them a scowl plastered on his face.
"What about the newbie? Snake," They asked
Snakes looked at the desk that she should be under and scoffed.
"Leave her she's dead weight," Snake said
Before they shut the door behind them a shoot went past them making them scatter,
Damien chuckled, walking to his brothers,
"You good?" Damien asked
"Yeah, I'm fine," Renato said
Damien walks to them only to hear his feet hit some sort of liquid,
he looked down and found a pool of dark blood, he found an orange haired woman heavily bleeding,
he looked up for his brothers finding them walking out of the building,
he looked back at her finding her having the same mask as the members,
"Hey, Damien are you..." Luke says
Damien glanced at him, saying,
"Do we have room for another?"
"Yes we do, but isn't she a part of them?" he asked
Damien looked back at her,
remembering what Snake said before pulling her out from under the desk and picking her up into his arms,
"Let's get moving,"
