Chapter 3: The Rave Of Justice
It's the start of a new day, Rose agreed to see me today. If I manage to get her father's key somehow, everything will be ready.
I meet her at a bar, she dressed for it I see. I probably should have put better clothes too.
"Hey, how are you Rose?"
"I'm okay. Take a seat, there's something I wanted to talk about."
"What is it?"
"You don't work in computers, right? This day you really were hacking the security."
"How do you know, has Leo told you?"
"The first time he said it, I figured it was true. I just didn't want to make a scene."
Maybe having Leo on our team isn't a good idea after all.
"So what now, you'll tell your father?"
"I want to search the truth and make justice reign. I want to know what you plan to do."
"I'm gonna steal documents that prove that the justice is corrupted here. I want to reveal the truth once and for all."
"And what will you do after? That won't change anything. I already tried but they covered up."
She tried before? She probably will agree to help me if I ask.
"I'll find a way, I just need your father's key, and I'll reveal the truth to everyone."
"I can get it for you, but I want to help. Let me infiltrate with you please. I know how to be sneaky and to defend myself, I learned to use a sword and martial art since a child."
Having someone else in our team could help, but being two will make some things harder. Eirika won't be happy when I'll tell her that.
"Fine, I agree. I take you as part of our team."
She seems happy at first, but then she gets disappointed
"That's it? No thief vow? No pact?"
What is she talking about? I'm not part of a thieve's guild or something.
"Okay, fine. Let's vow to each other. Promise that you will never reveal our secret."
"I promise."
"Promise that you'll never reveal your identity."
"I promise."
"Then I hereby declare you one of us."
She's really excited.
"Yay, what's the name of the group."
"We don't have one."
She seems disappointed again
"But don't worry, we'll find one when all the team is together."
"You promise?"
"Yeah, and now we need to give you a code name. I'm Raven."
She thinks deeply about it. A bit too deeply, it's not that deep.
"I want to be like you, if you're Raven, then I'll be Crow!"
"It's fine for me, when do you think you can get the key?"
"In an hour maybe."
"It's perfect then, let's meet tonight at my home."
"Oh really? You don't lose any time Roland."
She blushes, I think she got the wrong idea.
"I have things to do now, let's see each other again tonight."
We both part ways, I want to do my best to be prepared. Tomorrow will probably the great day.
It's night now, I called Leo and Rose over at our house.
"Leo? I didn't know you were a thief."
"I'm not, I'm just here to help for a bit."
"There's one more, you brought someone else here."
Eirika is hiding behind the couch, only letting the top of her head visible.
"I introduce to you, Crow. She will be our new member. We will infiltrate the police station together. She also got us the key for the office."
"Isn't she the daughter of a cop? I don't trust her a tiny bit."
"I understand your concern, but I will do everything I can to prove my worth to you."
We really have a rough team right now, we aren't really a cohesive team yet.
"Everyone, stop for a moment. Libra will tell us what he found about the police's schedule, we'll establish a road to enter. But first we need to understand each other. We're not a thief that tries to survive, a hacker, a detective or the daughter of a policeman. We're all under the same flag, the flag of justice."
There's a silence in the room, I thought I messed up until Eirika speak up.
"You're right, it's our first mission for justice. We need to act together. I, Justice, will guide your path."
"Despite the damage it could do to my reputation, I will take the risk and reveal the shining truth. I, Libra, shall eliminate every danger that will present to us."
"I may not be as strong as you all, I have nothing worth of value to help. But in my heart, I am ready. I, Crow, will make the justice reign once more."
"We will all act together, our group will reveal the truth hidden by those corrupted lowlife.
I, Raven, will lead our team until the end. We are no longer Eirika, Leo, Rose or Roland. We all are The Rave of justice now."
We spent the rest of the night planning the heist, tomorrow will be the day.
"Chief! Chief! Look what I found in front of the police station."
"What is it?"
"It's a letter, I think it's aimed to you."
"Give me that."
"Dear keeper of peace.
You have been corrupted, you condemn peoples before even judging their innocence.
You became the very thing you swear to destroy, tonight, we will prove to everyone that justice will prevail.
There is no need to hide this letter, we already sent this letter to the press.
There is nowhere to run, the truth will be revealed once more.
The Rave of Justice"
"Who they think they are? They think they can steal from us! You, raise the security, right now!"
It's fun to see them panic from far away.
"Was it necessary to send a letter? I don't want to get in trouble."
"As thieves, we need to at least warn our visit. It's not because we do it for justice that we can't be fair play."
Rose seems very excited.
"We're thieves, Oh my god we're really thieves!"
"Don't go tell that to everyone."
"Tonight, we will take their treasure."
Libra and Justice took as much info they could. Crow and I will infiltrate from two different way.
We waited for the whole night for that to happen, it's almost time to do it. But Crow doesn't seem well.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes... It's just hard to believe I'm gonna do it. Is it truly the right thing to do."
"In this world, the evil is everywhere. Superheroes don't exist, we need to make justice by ourselves."
"You're right, but when I think about it, I become hesitant. Is it what I should do? Who am I to say what's right or wrong?"
"You're a human, you are free to do your own choice. I don't know why they do it, but they have no right to ruins innocent's lives."
"It's true, we need to stop them."
She seems determined now.
"Raven, Crow, can you hear me?"
"All clear."
"Perfect, I'm with Libra. With him and the access to the camera's, it should be a piece of cake. I'll guide you two everywhere you go."
"Let's go then, are you ready Crow?"
"Always."
We both enter from a different place. She'll go from the main entrance, and I'll enter from a window.
"It's pretty intimidating to be here at night."
"You want to give up, Raven?"
"Me? Never."
"Be careful, The office is on the floor above you. But there's a guard in front of it."
I'll need to bring him somewhere else somehow.
"I can also try to enter from the window of the office."
"You can try, but if you fall from that height, it will hurt. And breaking the window would make noises."
"Okay, so not a bright idea."
"Crow is willing to do a distraction, but you'll need to get him to bring him to her first."
"If he sees me, he'll know that I'll try to bring him somewhere else."
"You got any ideas Raven?"
I'm in an office with lots of computers, I can maybe do something.
"Is there a way you can hack the computer so I have access to it?"
"I can, something's on your mind Raven?"
"Yeah, I have a plan."
The computer light up in front of me, I could do so much with it. I might as well change the wallpaper of the computer with something else. But the main idea is to put a very loud music.
"Weren't we supposed to be sneaky?"
"They already know we're here. We gave them a letter, remember?"
"Libra is saying that it's a stupid idea, but that it might work."
"If it works it's not stupid. Crow just need to distract the guard she has, the one in front of the office will leave eventually."
"I'll tell her. Let's hope it will work."
I hear some commotion down there, she's probably causing a big chaos down there. I hide in the hallway, waiting for the guard to come. As I expected it, he fell in my trap. I could just leave, but I decide to close the door and lock him in.
I finally get to the office, I open the door with the key. It's so satisfying, it's like everything is coming together. There are many things here, but I find what I was searching.
"I retrieved the documents. You were right, the mafia is involved."
I read a bit more, there's a part about a stolen painting. "La Reine". I know this name.
"Raven, we'll read later there's a guard coming here. They were more than expected."
"So it will be hard leaving from the door."
"Raven, don't do it."
I open the window, I don't forget to leave our visit card here. I jump outside, falling from two floor is scary, but I manage to land on a car. It still hurts, but I can still run. Crow comes out running too.
"You have it?"
I show her the documents in my hand.
"It's time to scram now."
I think we can say that this heist was perfect, no one saw us and we got what we needed.
But if the mafia is really involved, it's far from being the end.
