  Smiling slightly, a girl dressed in all black reached towards a beautiful glowing diamond. She had been waiting four hours for the jeweler that owned the shop to leave- and once he did, when she was sneaking in, she almost set off an alarm.

  Right as the girl's hand fastened around the diamond, alarms blared. Startled, the girl pulled the diamond away from its' pedestal. A loud noise sounded behind her, and she swung around to face it. Her eyes widened, it was a GIANT TURTLE!

  Now extremely frightened, she shoved the diamond into her satchel, which sat at her hip. The girl spun sound and made a mad dash for the exit, which was a hole she had cut into one of the windows. The window was high in the rafters of the building, so she had to climb all the way from the ground to the roof.

  Once at the top, the frightened girl glanced behind her- the turtle was right behind her! Scrambling to get out, the girl felt a hand wrap itself around her ankle, yanking her back. The diamond fell from her satchel, then crashing- but not breaking- against the granite tiles below. The giant turtle held the girl upside-down, his three-fingered hand holding her by the ankle. Though she was upside-down, she was still able to see exactly what the turtle looked like.

  He had a red covering that was wrapped around his eyes, and bright green eyes shown through the darkness of the building. He was much taller than the girl was, and she was five-nine. Suddenly, the red-carpet turtle dropped her, and she almost fell off of the rafters, but she was able to grab one of the beams quickly. When the girl looked back, the turtle was gone. That's when she heard sirens, so she scrambled up the bar, standing, then rushing out of the window and away from the wailing sirens.

  Walking towards her home, a girl thought about what had happened that night. Had she hit her head and imagined a giant turtle with a red mask? Was she going crazy? Or was he real?

  She sighed, she had lost the diamond. Hun would be very angry, he would say that even with all he did for her, she couldn't even do one thing for him. It's not like she didn't try, she did, but the turtle screwed it up for her. It's all his fault, not hers.

  The girl turned to a door, she knocked. The door swung open, and there stood one of the other purple dragons, she didn't know his real name, she just knew him as what he told her to call him, Sid. Seeing her, Sid stepped aside and let her walk in.

  "Did you get the package? If not... then he won't be very happy..." Sid said, looking down at the girl as they walked to where Hun was waiting. Without looking up at Sid, the girl shook her head- she had failed to retrieve the diamond, and he was right. Hun will not be happy. Turning towards a closed door, Sid pulled it open, and the teen stepped in.

  "Hello Daughter, did you get the package?" Asked Hun, as he turned towards the girl, he had a easy smile on his face. Her jaw tightened at the name, she was NOT Hun's daughter, her parents were dead.

  "No, I did not retrieve the package Hun." She stated calmly, looking him straight in the eye. His smile dropped instantly, and his eyes narrowed at the girl before him.

  He reached forward quickly and grabbed her hair, pulling her face towards his, "What do you mean by 'no'? Do you really mean to tell me you didn't get the diamond?"

  The girl attempted to pull herself away from Hun's angry face, but he held her still, "It wasn't my fault- it was a giant turtle's fault! He stopped me from being able to get the diamond, and wouldn't let me get it back- but then the cops showed up! I wasn't able to bring it back- I swear!"

  Hun let go of the struggling girl, then he turned, muttering to himself, "Not again... the turtle freaks can't be back again... not now..." Hun turned back to the frightened girl, looking down at her. "Daughter, leave me now. If you fail your next job- you better pray that the Lord helps failures."
