"it's so big," marcus says.
the Echo city museum stands out like a sore thumb. the shining marble and statues a violent contrast to the old brickwork of this rundown city. you check your watch. half an hour until gametime. you tighten up your shoelaces and pull on your gloves with anticipation. marcus goes over something on his palm pilot.
"ready?" you say. marcus just looks at you and nods.
3:00 AM
your watch beeps softly. time to go. you look at marcus. He runs through the program on his palm pilot.
"there. cameras taken out."
"alright lets go."
the two of you quickly walk up the 2 flights of stairs to the roof. even from up here, the museum looks huge. you and marcus climb down to the fire escape. from here it's only a small leap to the open window of the security breakroom next door. you position yourself and make the jump. you pull out your silenced gun quickly and look around for guards. none. marcus soon jumps through after you.
3:10 AM
you and marcus quickly run through the halls, avoiding guards. finally you make it to the room you want. the vase seems to smile at you, saying "bout time." you reach for it, and your hand runs through a laser. alarms blare everywhere. footsteps approaching. you and marcus run, forgetting the vase.
back down the same hallways, your feet activating every laser tripwire possible, but you dont care. the job is blown; time to get out! you turn around a corner, all of a sudden you hear the sound of security gates closing behind you. and then a heavy THUD
"Help!" Marcus's leg is caught beneath a gate, any second it could break. you turn to help him. but all of a sudden you hear the pounding of boots on hardwood flooring. guards. alot of them. the window is right there.
what would you do? poll closes in two days.
