"It's Canem...He's broken into the ConCorp Vault." Doc said. Bdubs felt his heart sink as the realization hit him. 'ConCorp...'

"I have to go stop him," Bdubs said firmly, going to pull his bandana down over his eyes. Doc stood silent for a moment before nodding. The two ran towards the exit. As Bdubs went to swing open the door, Doc gently grabbed his wrist with his metal hand. Bdubs turned to look up at the villain.

"Promise me we'll be fighting him together," Doc said. Bdubs looked down at his wrist, then back at Doc.

"Ok." Bdubs smiled. He wouldn't be able to do it on his own, he needed him. Doc smiled back then pulling Bdubs close to kiss him softly on the lips.

"Now let's go kick some undead ass!" Doc exclaimed. Bdubs laughed at his enthusiasm. The two then climbed back up onto the roof and started making their way towards the large company building.

Bdubs almost dropped at the sight of the company facility. 'It's been so long since I have been here...' Bdubs thought, feeling a bit of uneasiness sink in. The building was covered in smoke or shadow. It was like every shadow around it had folded up around itself. He was snapped out of his thoughts as Doc walked up beside him, looking at the large building.

"Can you see where he broke in?" Doc asked, Bdubs figured he was using his robotic eye to scan the scene.

"No. But the vault is somewhere over here." Bdubs said as he started to descend from their spot and towards the facility. The two ran towards the opposite side of the building, the shadow smoke making it kind of hard to see. "There!" Bdubs pointed out, his finger aiming up at a large hole in the wall near a part of the wall that clearly wasn't properly secured. Doc nodded from beside him and quickly headed up towards the newly made entrance. Both jumped up and landed inside the erry vault. The place was huge, with large glass cases filled with valuable treasures and blue decorations on every wall.

"More of a show area than a secured vault," Doc commented. Bdubs laughed quietly, looking around the room himself.

"The Vex family always has been a bit showy," Bdubs said as he started to walk deeper into the room. The vault was dark inside, no thanks to Canem. The floors were covered in thick fog so it was hard to see where you were stepping. Bdubs and Doc stood in silence for a moment before a large crash echoed throughout the building. The two locked eyes as they both dashed down one hallway towards the sound. "What do you think he is trying to steal?" Bdubs asked, turning to see the villain running next to him. Doc frowned, but before he could respond the two stopped at the entrance to another room. Bdubs eyes narrowed as his eyes landed on the shadowy villain that stood at the far end of the room. The security guard that struggled in his grasp dropped down into the fog as Canem eyed them from behind his sunglasses. The hero could see Doc tense up at a mischievous smile branched across Canem's face.

"Ah you made it!"

"Got rid of the dog skull?" Doc asked, his tone deep and annoyed.

"Eh, it was getting too decayed for my taste. Besides! The sunglasses make me look prettier." He said, reaching up to adjust the dark sunglasses he had on his face. They made his void eye a lot more visible, sending a shiver down Bdubs spine. "I'm guessing you are here to stop me?" The reaper's gaze then turned to Bdubs. "You even brought the short star blaster. Wow, I guess you two really did hit it off." Canem laughed.

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING SHORT?!" Bdubs yelled, his anger rising as the reaper giggled to himself. His laugh quickly turned to a growl as his hand slammed against the large vault door that was now very visible behind him.
