Tommy POV

"Did you bring it?"

"Show me the cash first."

"You don't trust me?"

"I'm not stupid enough to even consider trusting you."

Tommy crept lower to the ground, straining to hear as much as he could. This was it! Finally this was his chance to prove himself. To finally prove that he was more than just a little kid. No more curfew, no more rules. Finally he could be apart of the team. He could go on missions, be apart of the plan. It would be a dream come true.  All he had to do was find out what these guys were planning. With that snippet of information he could change everything.

"Can you hear what they're saying?" a voice whispered behind him.

Tommy rolled his eyes at his twin brother. Why, oh why, did Tubbo have to follow him? Having the brunette added a whole new level of risk that Tommy didn't want to deal with. Despite his best efforts to dissuade his brother, Tubbo had only wanted to go more. He was convinced that him being there protected Tommy somehow. He didn't have the heart to tell him otherwise.

"Not with you talking so loud!" he hissed, maybe a little too loudly.

Immediately the two suspects glanced in their direction. Tommy cursed in his head, wishing everything was over. If they were caught it would have the complete opposite effect. Tommy wouldn't be allowed to leave the hide out for months, maybe even a year, depending on how furious Phil was. 

"Who's there?" one called out, quickly receiving a smack from the other. "Ouch!"

"What do you expect? Someone's just going to pop out and introduce themselves?"

The man shrugged, holding his briefcase closer to himself. "It was worth a shot." An idea struck him after a moment, "Do you think... it's them?"

A silent exchange of glances passed between the two. "They're not the sneaking around type. Trust me, the blood god only has one mood."

"What are we going to do?!" Tubbo whispered to Tommy. The two men quickened their pace towards the brothers, causing the blonde's heart to hammer twice as fast. 

Tommy bit his lip, wishing for nothing less than death. But he knew that wasn't an option and neither was getting caught. Running through his narrow list of options, he came up with a plan. "Put your mask on," he murmured, watching as the men grew closer and closer. Tubbo did as he was told, with Tommy doing the same. "When they're gone, run." Then without another moment to lose, he jumped up from his hiding spot. In a burst of confidence and terror, he rushed towards the man with the briefcase.

The man was completely caught off guard. Tommy had been planning on stealing it as he ran past, but there was one thing he hadn't considered. The briefcase was handcuffed to the man's wrist. If he wanted the briefcase, he would have to take the man with him. As fun as that would have been, Tommy didn't want anymore reasons to get scowled at.

So, instead, he bolted down the alleyway, taunting the men as he went. "I've heard all I needed to know! Just wait until my partners hear about this!" Smirking, he turned down another street. "Enjoy your last few hours of freedom!"

Immediately, the villains took the bait. Both of them chased after him, grumbling back and forth at each other.

"I thought you said it couldn't be one of them!"

"I just said it couldn't be the blood god! How was I supposed to know he had a little brother?"

The chase continued on, following street after street. Tommy was so confident in his own speed, that he was hardly looking where he was going. That was his mistake, as it often was. His own arrogance lead to him choosing an alley that lead to a dead-end. 

Panicking, he tried to look for a means to escape. Maybe a fire escape or a lucky edge he could climb up to. But his luck has run out.

The two men chuckled upon seeing the trapped boy. This would be so much easier than they thought. The one with the briefcase snickered, "Enjoy your last few moments of freedom, boy, cause you're coming with us."

"I can't wait to see the look on the boss's face when he's sees we've finally caught one."

But the moment was short-lived. 

"Get the fuck away from my little brother."
