Chapter 1: The Heist
"Hurry up Keith," said Charlie whispering. "We need to get the ship's hold." "I know Charlie, just give me a few more minutes to set up the grappling guns." Kieth responded. They were at the port side of the ship, getting ready to board it.
Keith then stands to the side of the ship with Charlie and gives him the grappling gun. "Ready...aim...fire." Said Kieth as he and Charlie shot up the left side of the ship. They climbed up top and went behind a bunch of boxes for cover. "Alright, what's the next step?" Asked Charlie. "To get to the ship's hold, we have to sneak inside the ship without any alarms. We do this nice and slow. Let's move." Kieth says.
Keith looks around to see if any guards were near by then signaled Charlie to follow him to the door. Keith opened the door slowly and crouched along the hallways. They heard laugher down the hallway and took cover. They waited for them to pass and continued down the path towards the ship's hold. Charlie slowly opened the door to take a peak. "I see too many guards to count. We're gonna have to find another way in." "Agreed, maybe we find a way through the ventilation system?" Keith suggests as he points towards a vent. Charlie then slowly unscrews the vent then both enter and Keith closes the vent behind them.
They crawl along the vent slowly and as silently as possible so no one could hear them from above. There was a small pound by the movement of Charlie. One of the guards below heard it and said, "There's something crawling in the ventilation system." Another guard responded, "Eh, its probably another rat. Little bastards are everywhere in this ship. Don't get too paranoid." Both Kieth and Charlie took a quiet sigh of relief and continued slowly. Then, they stop moving and looked below to see a large chest titled, "Quiver."
"That's the one,"Said Charlie. "Now we just need to get down there." He kicks down the vent and they both drop down. But then they hear footsteps coming their way and quickly find cover. "What the heck caused that sound?" Said the guard talking to himself as he investigates the noise he heard referring to the vent. Keith blends into the darkness and Charlie starts reaching into his backpack and pulls out a gun with a silencer. Keith's heart starts racing as he tries to motion Charlie to not shoot, but Charlie ignores him and shoots anyway behind the guards head.
The guard falls to the ground and Keith grabs hold of Charlie and says, "What the hell man? Did you not see me signaling you to not shoot? Why did you—" Then Charlie interrupts and says, "Relax man it's a tranquilizer gun, it's totally non-lethal. Look, you can hear him snoring." The guard on the ground snores loud enough to echo throughout the cargo hold. Kieth lets go of Charlie and apologizes to him. "It's fine, now let's continue on."
They head to the old chest and start pick-locking it. It opens up with a click and inside the chest is old documents, notebooks, maps, and a small arrow with weird symbols. "What does our contact want with all this old stuff and a arrow?" Keith says to Charlie. "Who knows? We're just here to grab all this stuff and get paid. Let's open the bags." They open the duffel bags and put everything inside. Kieth however slips a small notebook and the arrow in his pockets. "That's everything. Now let's get back to the boat." Keith says.
As soon as they turn around, a female guard points her gun at them and says, "Don't move and put your hands above your head, NOW!" Keith and Charlie stand still and look at each other and looks back at the guard. "Well, what are you waiting for? Hands on your head!" She shouts. "Well you told us to not move so how are we gonna put our hands up?" Says Keith jokingly. Then she says, "I'm the one with the gun, so stop being a smart ass and do what I say." They slowly raise their hands and she restrains them with cuffs. "So much for no alarms." Said Charlie.
