Chapter 10

HELLO MY PUPS!!! It's been an eternity I know, but I'm back for a bit to write you another chapter!! Thank you for all of the support on this crazy book that I originally did as a joke- but whatever 😂 it's here to stay now I guess. I hope you are all doing well and hope you're enjoying the chaos so far, this chapter is going to be more of a filler? I guess? But it's still going to be interesting none the less. Welp, without further ado, let's get on to the main event!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Last chapter recap
I could hear a familiar voice and I tried to scream but by then it was already too late. I was in the AVL blimp. When I was taken I kinda dropped something I was holding. I may or may not have grabbed that picture of us from when we were younger
——————————
I felt my back slam against either a wall or a floor, I couldn't really tell the difference It was painful either way.

"You've got a lot of nerve sitting in plain sight Miss. (villain name), you're not getting away this time"

I heard the familiar voice again, and I couldn't believe it.

"Gru? Is that you?"

I said, not realizing I rhymed my words until my eternal self slapped my brain silly. I heard the voice laugh, now I knew it was him for sure. But how? He was the best villain in our neighborhood... he was my friend.

"It has been quite the while hasn't it? As you can probably tell I have a new job now."

"You... how could you do this? Joining the AVL after being a master of our craft for so many years. I've used what you taught me every day since. I can't believe you would throw that all away for this.."

"Different times call for different job opportunities y/n, you of all people would remember that wouldn't you?"

"You know you won't be able to keep me here?

"Yeah? But we can get as much information out of you as we can before you do. So tell me, what we're you doing at Bratt's hideout?"

I had to choose my words wisely, but then again I could also tell the truth. I just need to play my cards right. Although the outfit I'm wearing under this robe right now might be a bit hard to explain-.

"I'm assuming you saw his bet on television? I'm stealing the diamond from him, just like I've planned from the start."

"Yeah, with what you're wearing I would say it's a little more serious than that y/n."

Fucking bastard. I tried to struggle against the restraints, but to no avail. I looked over gru's shoulder to see his wife, the crazy Lucy Wild.
Y/n just sat in defeat. At this point she knew she wasn't going to tell them anything about bratt, but she also knew that if she didn't get out of here somehow she was never going to get that diamond before tomorrow.

"You cought me at an inconvenient time. I was getting changed to go to sleep and I went outside to get some air, simple as that."

"So you're staying at his house now? What are you? Roommates? Besties? Or are you lovers.?"

The enthusiastic voice of agent Wild hit my ears like a ball to a bat and it kinda annoyed me not gonna lie.

"I would have to say that's none of your damn business Lucy. My job is to steal the diamond from bratt at any cost. That's all.."

I saw a smirk appear on gru's face and suddenly my skin shivered on my arms. Haven't had that happen in a while I thought to myself.

"Then how about we make a deal. You can steal the diamond from bratt for us. You steal the diamond, you can get the credit for it and the press. And then after you sell it to us and we'll give you the money and you'll give us the diamond. Sound fair?"

Gru's words lingered in my head for a minute.

"No way in hell gru. If I'm stealing that diamond it's gonna be for me. Not for you."

As I've been being interrogated I've been slowly but surely cutting the rope that is tied around my wrists with a piece of frayed out metal on the back of the chair.

"If you give us the diamond we will give you full cost for it and an clean identity. All crimes, everything. Clean slate with all of the money for you and your brother."

I had to stop and think about this.. all of the money and a clean slate... we could live normal lives.. could it be true. Could this be worth it. Could a clean life l, a new life, be worth more than Bratt...
