The Boys

They had all met in jail. Nathan, Jackson, George, Thomas, Stephan, Jamal, Rodney, and Hector were all criminals, different and the same in their own regards.

Nathan and Jackson had robbed banks in Nebraska, North Dakota, and Minnesota before getting caught. The cops never found the money though.

George and Thomas were hackers and businessmen, hacking into almost every big name bank in Europe and cheating millions out of their life savings before being caught hiding in Indiana.

Stephan and Jamal specialized in mugging and breaking into houses. They robbed a whole neighborhood in Wisconsin before there was even an alarm raised. They got caught after getting to drunk at a bar together.

Finally, there was Rodney and Hector, the car experts stealing everything from hubcaps and tires to full cars. They could make a completely fool-proof counterfeit license plate in less than five minutes.

They had all worked as a group since that fateful day when they had broken out of the slammer.
