You can't catch me now

Chapter 1

"Tubbooo, I don't want to go!!" Tommy whined, scuffing his feet. Tubbo sighed and threw his hands in the air, the universal symbol for 'I give up'. Tommy grinned, joy blooming in his chest at his victory. Tubbo had been trying (unsuccessfully) to convince Tommy to go to the store with him.  However, Tommy was a firm believer of doing what he wanted, not what Tubbo wanted. For example, stealing and pick-pocketing instead of asking for help. When it came to that, however, Tubbo hated asking for help, so they were mostly in agreement about it.

"Big T, I am going to be a wonderful, generous person, and go nab some money and food for us, since I am a handsome big man." Tommy proclaimed, smiling broadly. He watched as Tubbo squinted at him, seeming like he was going to say something, before just sighing in defeat. Tommy grinned, and skipped to the front door. Well, if it could even be called a door. It would probably be more accurate to call it a piece of wood leaning against the doorway. The door had broken a while ago, after Tommy had kicked it while upset. The next day, Tubbo had forced him to go find something to replace it with, and Tommy had come back with a large piece of wood, and had taped it on the doorway as a makeshift door. Tubbo had stared at him, wondering why he had even bothered making Tommy go, then shook his head and walked away.

Tommy grinned as he stared at the teen around the corner. Tommy had been scoping out this guy for about twenty minutes, waiting for the right moment. The guy was tall, with black and white hair, wearing a mask and sunglasses. He was wearing a bag that had a necklace very obviously poking out of it. By the looks of it, it could help feed Tommy and Tubbo for at least a week.  He grinned as he noticed the guy pull out a book, look around, and then sit on the ground. Now was his chance!

"Hey big man! Whatcha readin? I gotta say, bold fashion choice! I mean, that sweater with those pants, Hoo-wee! And, also, that mask and the sunglasses? Not flattering, big man, you should let those beautiful eyes of your show. You currently look like an idiotic-penguin-bank-robber." While he is insulting the person, he is nabbing things out of the bag that is sitting beside him. He grasps around and feels the necklace, and snatches it. "Oh, and by the way, you look really dumb with those sunglasses, like, seriously." Tommy finishes what he was saying, having gotten what he was there for. He thinks the guy is frowning behind the mask and sunglasses, but isn't 100% sure. He gets up and starts to walk away.

"Uh... Hey! Wait! You took the necklace I stole- I mean, my necklace! That I have had forever!" He hears the person say, scrambling to get up and fumbling his words. Tommy lets out a small curse under his breath, and speeds up. He feels a hand grab his shoulder, despite the guy being quite a ways away previously. His mind flashes to a time when a hand on him meant pain would soon follow, and out of instinct, threw out a brief electrical charge.

He froze as he heard a yelp and a thud. Oh crap. Did he kill them? He turned around, preparing himself for whatever was there, and froze at the sight of the guy he had just robbed, passed out on the ground. Thank God. He just knocked him out. He smiled, and idea forming in his head. He grabbed the bag the person was carrying, and grinned wider at the sight of all the things he could sell. He was about to leave, but then stopped. He grinned wickedly, a new idea forming.

Tommy watched from a nearby alleyway as the guy he robbed sat up, rubbing the back of his head. He stared gleefully as he watched the guy pat the ground for his bag, sitting up fully and staring around as he realised it wasn't there. He watched as the guy frantically swivelled his head around, desperately scrabbling at the ground for his now missing bag. Tommy struggled to hold in a cackle as the guy looked down, and realised his sweater was missing. Tommy rolled around silently with laughter as he felt the fabric of the guys dark green hoodie shift underneath him.

"Tubbo, you should have seen this guy's face! I think I've done this like, 8-9 times by now, and the look on his face each time is priceless! This penguin bitch is so dumb!" Tommy explained to Tubbo, about a week later. Tommy had come home from one of his many times of robbing this dude, and Tubbo was waiting inside, and asked where the random hoodies had come from, so Tommy had explained the story. Tubbo was grinning, and titled his head. 

"Say, Tommy, what does this 'Penguin bitch' look like?" Tubbo queried. Tommy grinned. "Okay, so he wears these incredibly idiotic sunglasses, and a black and white split mask. He has, like, dirty blonde or light brown hair. He also had white gloves on, and before I took it, a grey and blue bag."  Tubbo grinned, a slightly terrifying look overtaking his face. He started laughing, bending over and wheezing, and Tommy started at him. 

"Uhhh... Hey boss man, what's so... funny?" Tommy hesitated, a bit scared of the maniacal look on his friends face. "Oh, don't worry. You'll understand soon enough." He responded, the grin growing ever wider.

                                                                      ＊*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚　˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚＊

Tommy was sitting in the apartment, staring at the ceiling and flicking the lights on and off with his electricity. He sighed. Where was Tubbo? He had said he was going out for a grocery run, and it had already been two hours. Just as he was sitting up to leave and go look for him, the door (which still wasn't really a door, but what else would they call it; the plank?) was kicked open and Tubbo strode inside, stopping just In front of the doorway, with a shit-eating grin on his face. 

"Hey Tommy, I have found us a new roommate. He has a power that allows him to teleport, and will be able to help us steal things and get food. He will be staying with us, as he doesn't have somewhere to sleep. However, Tommy, you have to be nice to him while he is here. That means no hitting, kicking, insulting, etc. you have to be nice or I will kick you out. Alright?" Tubbo questioned, tilting his head. Tommy turned his nose up, not particularly excited at the prospect of having a roommate. "... Fine." he muttered, as Tubbo gave him the stink eye. "Alright, Ranboo, come in!" Tubbo snickered, stepping aside. Tommy started as the guy came in. 

"Penguin bitch?!?" Tommy griped. "Why the fuck is he here?!?" Tommy scowled at 'penguin bitch', sorry, Ranboo, and stopped. He looked to Tubbo, who was wearing a shit-eating grin. He looked back to Ranboo, who looked terrified. A grin spread across his face. 

"Well Ranboob now you live here with us. Welcome to the shit show. This is gonna be fun!" Ranboo stared at Tubbo, a look of utter betrayal showing on his red and green eyes, his sunglasses gone. "Tubbo why would you do this to me??" Ranboo cried, sinking to the ground.
