I stand at the front of the Starbucks counter. 4 people sit in chairs while 3 stand in line behind me. When I finally get my coffee someone barges in with a balaclava and a shotgun.

Theify Boi: "DOWN ON THE GROUND, NOW!"
Everyone complys except for me.

Theify Boi: "GET DOWN ON THE GROUND."

"Hang on mate, i'm drinking my coffee." I drink some more until he rips it out of my hand and throws it to the ground

Theify Boi: "GET DOWN."

"Mother..." I grab the muzzle of his shotgun and he shoots, however its pointed away from me so it hits the light.

"Dark now, ain't it?!" I say as I run towards the small corridor with the bathrooms. I take cover behind a box.

Theify boi: "COME HERE AND GET DOWN" I unzip my backpack and get out my helmet. I put it on and open up a dark green overlay. I enter 911 and they pick up.

911 operator: "This is 911, how may I help you?"

"Good morning, I'm at the starbucks on Smith Rock Way. Active robbery, armed."

911 Operator: "Sorry?"

"There's an active robbery going on right now."

911 Operator: "Police forces are on their w-" My overlay shuts down after I get hit with the shotguns butt, cracking my helmet. I take my helmet off and get hit with the shotgun butt in the nose

"THE FUCK MAN?!" I say as I rub my nose

I get up and rip the shotgun out of his hand. I throw it out of his hand and begin beating him up.

Theify Boi: "I'm sorry!" He cries as I punch him

"YOU SEE, WHEN THE TABLES TURN YOU TURN SOFT." He sits in fear

"And god knows you're lucky i've got a heart." I let him get up and I walk towards the counter

"Sorry about that, can I have my coffee again?" The barista gets up slowly in fear of the guy

"Don't worry, the bitch wouldn't be that dumb."

Barista: "BEHIND YOU!" He yells before jumping to the ground

I get hit with the shotgun again, and i'm stunned from the impact to the back of my head. I drop my helmet to the ground.

"Jesus Christ..."

Theify Bitch: "You see, after I saw you with that helmet, I remembered something. You have a bounty on your head." Goddamn, this guy's a black market hitman. I get up while he does his little montage and knock him out.

"Goddamn." The police get to the starbucks as I walk out to go to the base
