"Well what's your idea, huh?" Maddy asked me.
At that moment my phone buzzed, 'seriously I do not have time for this', I thought. I reached into my pocket and pulled out my phone and I saw 1 new text message, opening it I saw it was from an unknown number. It said.
You must rob the bank tomorrow night , you will arrive there at 11.pm sharp, start at 11.30 and get out at 1.00. Remember to leave the money at the Warehouse near the River.
After I looked at it, I showed Maddy and my Grandmother the text, they both screamed and started to shake.
"OMG, what does this guy want from us like seriously", Maddy screamed at me.
"How would I know?!" I asked her.
Then my phone buzzed again, I pulled it out and saw 1 new text message from the same unknown number, I opened it up and it said....
I'll be watching so you better not make a wrong move, it will cost you....
"Oh, God what are we going to do?!" I said to myself.
"How are we even going to rob the bank when they are armed with security, but even if we do we'll need to hack into the database and unlock all the doors and everything!"
"Wait, didn't you get a 100% in that IT exam in year 10?" I asked Maddy.
"Yea, that was luck, and anyway I'm still a little rusty on computers."
"Yea, but we can still use your skill's to hack into the database, and to turn off the security camera's". I told her.
"I would if I could, but I don't want to I'm scared that I'm going to get caught!!"
"YOU HAVE TO, MY LIFE HERE IS A STAKE AND DIDN'T YOU JUST READ THAT TEXT IF WE DON'T DO IT, IT WILL COST US!!"
"Geez, you don't have to yell at me......"
"So are you going to help me or not?"
"Fine, but if we get caught this is soo your fault!". Maddie pointed her finger at me.
"Trust me we won't, all you have to do is hack into the database and turn off the security camera's, easy!" I responded.
Truth was I didn't know anything about hacking into database's and security, I was scared, whoever sent me The List is holding my life in their hands. We spent all night, planning on what to do on the night of the robbery. So we spent the night at my Grandmother's house, she said it would be safer and that we could plan tomorrow night's robbery.
I don't know why my mum was screaming at me like that before I left, does she know something I don't? I think my Grandma knows but she just won't tell me, she thinks its best not to know for my safety.
The Next Morning.....
Someone was shaking me and telling me to wake up. I then opened my eyes and saw Maddy leaning over me, her face was all red and stained with tears from crying last night. Oh, God why did I have to bring her into this, she's going to end up being hurt, I know it.
" Hey, Zoe are you ready?" Maddy asked me.
"Only if you are!"
"I am, come one let's do this!"
Hey Guys the next chapter will be published soon, I just had a few ideas and just wanted to put them down.
So remember to vote, comment and enjoy :)
