The Guardian

The thief had made it, he was deep in the bowels of the most guarded building on the planet. He’d have broken in here ages ago if he’d known he was this good at thieving. Approaching the last door it occurred to him that this time tomorrow he’d be obscenely wealthy.

Silently opening the door he was suprised to hear a laughter track, he was more suprised to see someone lying on a bean bag watching Friends, oh well, he’d killed before and for less money.

“Close the door, and bloody quieten down, I like this episode.” The thief stopped, he knew he hadn’t made any noise. Whipping out his pistol he fired 3 silenced rounds at the man, who dodged them. Dodged bullets he wasn’t even looking at. Not that that makes a difference, you can’t dodge bullets.

“I said, be quiet you moron. If I could be bothered I’d give you right good hiding. I suppose you’re here to steal this?” The man pulled out an exciting looking weapon. “I’m not supposed to let people steal this you know.”
