Ringo DeAvelino, a 20-year-old, with a soft heart, a part-time burglar, and a guy with a thousand identities whose abilities are to disguise and to use it when brushing off from the law who was after him. He gained the alias of "tambling" due to his stunt-like movement when escaping the law.
During the night of March, 1961. Ringo DeAvelino, was walking down the quiet hall of a company he broke into as he was carrying an empty bag in his hand. While wandering silently, he kept his eyes spread open to make sure the guard in the place wouldn't catch him lurking in the quiet hall.
Meanwhile outside, a police officer on patrol asked one of the guards on the fire exit who was going on a look-out for any intruder on the place.
"Sir, is there no intruder going in there?"
Asked, the police who were on the bottom.
"No, there are none."
Replied the guard from the top.
When the coast was clear, Ringo then, quickly began to lockpick the door to the room where the vault was, as he quickly went inside, a guard caught the attention of the supposedly locked door that got unlocked by someone. Without looking, the door was suddenly opened by the guard, catching Ringo, red-handed. "Hold it right there!" Cried the guard. While with a gun in his hand. Ringo replied by raising his hands in the air, as he slowly stood up, he quickly rolled over to the ground to make a quick escape from the room without hesitation. As, Ringo escaped, the guard suddenly opened fire while Ringo escaped the room. He then heads to the fire exit and hides from the guard that caught him.
Suddenly, the police from the ground, heard the commotion, and pulled out his gun after noticing, Ringo hiding from the fire exit. He then fired his gun up from the fire exit as ringo then ducked to cover from the shooting. Then with a swift motion, Ringo quickly ran back inside the building but only to find that the police had already come into the floor, startled, he quickly ran back to the fire exit, as the cops started sprinting, Ringo then pretended to jump from the fire exit just to trick them. He quickly climbed onto a nearby ladder that leads to the rooftop of the building to hide from them.
As Ringo hid himself, the authorities inspected that Ringo may have jumped from the fire exit. When they left the area, Ringo had his chance to escape as he hurried down onto the ladder. When he reached the ground, he then walked away until a cop noticed him and fired a shot towards where he stood which startled him as he ran away and hid in a nearby alleyway. When the group of authorities finally showed up, they asked each other where, Ringo had fled.
"Have you seen a guy?"
Asked the cop to his colleague,
"Why are you asking me, I never saw him!" Replied the other cop with a hostile tone in his voice,
"Let's split up and search the whole place." Commanded the cop to his colleagues.
When the colleagues split up, the cop then noticed an old man in the dark alleyway completely unaware of what was happening in the streets.
"Hey! What are you doing here this late?"
"I beg your pardon? Do you have a spare change?"
"I said, what are you doing here?! Have you seen a man fleeing the area?"
"What? I don't eat coins, I needed a spare change!"
The cop then started to get irritated by the old man being deaf and dumbfounded. The cop sighed as he warned the old man.
"Just get out of here or you'll get shot."
Said the cop before walking away, leaving the old man.
"What, are you still giving me a spare change? Hey! My spare change!"
When the police were out of sight, the old man then straightened up from his hunchback position and was none other than Ringo himself but in disguise. While he looked around making sure there were no cops around, he quickly grabbed his bag full of money and fled the scene still in his old man disguise as he continued on his hunchback position as he walked down the street.
After he escaped from the law once again, Ringo then decided to go home after he had stolen again.
As he quietly went into his house, Ringo would slowly look around making sure not to awaken anybody around the room, when he slowly opened the door, his mother called him out from her bedroom in a raspy tone.
"Ringo.. is that you..?"
Ringo, then rushed inside his mother's room to check on her but only to find that she's still awake even though it's now 12 in the morning.
"Mother, why are you still awake?"
"My dear son, I can't sleep right now.."
She replied.
So, Ringo then stepped closer to her mother's bed and gave her hand a kiss as she looked up at his son, completely worried about him despite being sick.
"Where have you been, Ringo..? I was worried about you. I thought you won't come back.."
"Mother, I uhh... I just went for a walk."
"And what's that bag you carried along?"
"Ermm.. it's nothing mother. Where's aling Anita?"
"I let her take a rest now, I felt pity because she stayed up late just to take care of me.."
She said, with a hint of compassion.
"You too mother, you need to take a good rest as well so that your fever won't go worse."
With that, Ringo stood up and gave his mother a kiss on the forehead before leaving the room to let her sleep as for him, he then went inside his bedroom to take a rest as well.
