"Who Are You?" Sonnyban

6

The darkness of the night rolled in soon. For what seemed like only a matter of minutes ago that Alban and Sonny had parted ways, had actually been hours. Though to be fair, they did spend quite the amount of time bickering with each other in front of that convenience store earlier. What a tough beginning to the school year, the two thought. It wasn't about to get easier from the looks of it as the two arrived to where they had been headed to.

Sonny finally arrived at his two floored house of an average size but it leant towards the big side more. He unlocked the door with his keys, opening it up only to find a pitch black room.

'He isn't home yet? Or..' Sonny thought to himself as he walked inside, closing the door behind himself as he turned on the lamp. It illuminated the room, revealing a neat looking living room with not a thing out of place. Well, except one thing. That thing would be the scattered papers all over the glass table and a man asleep belly-flat on the couch. That would be Sonny's father. With a sigh, Sonny walked over to him, his answer already found to his question earlier. A concerned look fell upon Sonny's eyes as he looked down at the other.

"He must've overworked himself again.. Da—.." As his hand reached over in intention to touch his father's shoulder, his hand froze midway along with his sentence as his eyes had fallen upon the scattered papers. Instead he went quiet and gathered them into one stack that he carried into his hand, bringing it up to read them. His eyes scrolled the words curiously.

It seemed to be a mission in the works. Someone needed to be caught but what was the situation. He read more and more of it. Apparently this wanted person was a thief. One previously small time thief who was beginning to grow their reputation recently with more valuable targets stolen. It began with small store stuff and food, then to people's homes property, to pieces of expensive technology and big brands merchandise, than to priceless jewelry and then even to irreplaceable pieces of art! That's when it struck his mind.

'It's him, it's that thief i've been working on catching! I knew he did these things but why has he made it to be noticed as a serious case..' Sonny thought to himself in wonder. He had almost caught this thief millions of times and yet like it was a little game, the thief always slips away at the end. 'What else could he have...' Then he read the next section.

Apparently from this information covered, a little story was stirred up that made matters much more serious. This named, 'Phantom Thief' was a name well known in the trouble making area. Though a much more serious name existed, that being the name, Luca Kaneshiro. Those two seemed to have gotten mixed up according to these files. The hunch was that this thief had teamed with the gang leader somehow. Why? Because it was taken notice that these two are ever caught even though they do their crimes in the most risky places and lately these crimes done by the both of them that were in similar places had been occurring at the same time! If the phantom thief and this gang leader were to have teamed up, with their skill and power combined, they'd be unstoppable which was a very serious problem to the police. Was it true or just a foolish theory? Sonny was going to find out himself. With the files and his backpack in his hands, he went over to the lamp and turnt off the light since he wasn't expecting to be home early. "Goodnight dad." He quietly added in before quickly going upstairs to his room where he stuffed the files in another bag, slipping into his officer uniform before putting a dark coat over it along with a cap and mask over his bottom half part of the face. After all, he needed to hide especially tonight not only from the regular officers since he didn't have permission to do these things normally, being an officer in training and all, but from his father since he didn't ask for permission tonight either. His father would never let him do such a dangerous mission but he wanted to help him out and bring them down for the better. He successfully snuck out through the window (even though his father was dead asleep so he could've went out the front door but whatever 🙄) and with determination he made his way over to the city which these things usually took place in. Already he made a mistake this semester, not doing tonight's homework for a mission.
