I run down the street, cops at my heels. A bag of money clutched in my hand.

As I swerve around a corner and press my back against the wall, I watch those pesky heros run past, the cops right behind.

I pull my mask up and place my free hand on my chest to catch my breath. Running is not my strong suit.

I slid down the wall, and check my haul. A couple thousand dollars and some random persons watch. 'Not bad, not that good eather, but not horrible' I mutter to myself.

Slipping my mask back down and hopping up, I start to run down the alley, eager to get home. I turn back to make sure no one is following and slam into something and we both tumble down.

I quickly sit up and look down at the scrawny man under me. He groans and looks up at me through goggled eyes.

All of a sudden something rams me from the side and slams me to the ground. I open my eyes to a lizard looking girl pinning me to the concrete.

"DEMENCIA! WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT EATING PEOPLE?!" The bag headed man screamed at her.

"Your no fun Flug." She rolls her eyes and climbs off of me. I slowly sit up, having hit my head pretty hard.

Looking up, I see the the guy who I had landed on earlier extend a hand to me. I take it and he helps me to my feet.

"Ah, sorry for running into you." I apologize. He waves his hand

"N-No its alright! I wasn't looking where I was going- DEMENCIA DONT BREAK THAT-!" A loud crash came from the street, and several screams followed suit.

The scrawny guy who seemed to be wearing a scientist coat facepalmed and rolled his eyes. He turned to me and slipped a card into my hands.

"Well ive gotta stop her before she jeopardizes our mission." He squints his eyes in what I assume to be a smile. I heard a loud bang and the girls laughter. The bagged man squeaked in horror and ran past me.

I chuckle and look at the card in my hands. A neat black top hat in a circle was printed on the front. I flip it over and see the words 'BlackHat Origination' written with a phone number underneath.

I look to the street and see the bagged man who I think was called 'Flug' by the lizard girl, whos name is im pretty sure is 'Demencia' fighting with a tall hero.

Flug was shooting bullets at them, while Demencia was lounging at them. A big blue bear stood off to the side, watching with big eyes.

I turn to leave into the alley, but Im mesmerized by the fighting of the odd crew. The lizard girl get thrown back and instantly jumps back at the hero. Flug seemed to be having trouble with his gun, hitting it and cursing.

Suddenly he lights up and cocks it back. Flug points it at the hero and hits them in the arm. I watch as the hero angrily turns but before they could do anything, they exploded, bits getting everywhere.

'Oh wow' I think as I turn to start actually going home this time. Just as im about to jump the fence out of the alleyway, I steal one last glance at the scientist.

And with that, im out of the ally and down the road.
