Akito and the Loonatics

chapter 131

Lexi heard an alert on one of the computers and rushed to it. "You guys, we got a Stony and Bugsy spotting at the Acmetropolis First National Bank!"

"Ooh, that sounds c-cool," Pinkster commented. "Bank robbers robbing a bank... I bet they're pl-pl-pl--It's a robbing."

"Does he have a nose for this business or what?" Duck put his arm around the pig with a supportive smile.

"Anyone could tell that someone is robbing the bank." Patch said.

"Even I can realize that..." Felicity pouted.

Simon gave a deadpan look at the pig as he was sucking on his pacifier.

"So, what are we waiting for?" Eloise asked. "Let's get going." she then said.

"What's that thing you are always saying?" Felicity asked. "Let's sk... Sk... Ska..."

"Skitter?" Eloise finished for her. "Yes, let's."

"Let's jet!" Ace added after giving a command to Rev.

They all then went off to the bank to handle the two crooks. They were now on the roof and looking through the glass top to find Bugsy and Stony were inside, now at work.

"There they are." Patch growled.

Simon crawled over against the glass and pounded his tiny fist into his hand, looking more menacing than usual.

"Looks like you wanna get them as much as I do." Patch smiled at Simon.

"Mm-hmm..." Simon nodded his head.

"So, how are we going to enter?" Eloise asked.

"Well, we can't chance frontal assault," Ace said, then looked to the others.

"Why not?" Akito asked. "I could get them no problem!"

"Yeah, I know, but there are too many civilians." Ace reminded him.

"Oh... Yeah..." Akito pouted. "Next time."

"We need to flush 'em out into the open." Ace then said.

"And how do we do that?" Eloise asked.

"Tech, set up one of your criminal catching gadgets at the entrance," Ace started to command.

"Right on!" the coyote replied, then bent down next to an invention he broguht with him. "I call it the 'Tech-Nabber 6000'. All you have to do is push the red button."

"That sounds easy enough." Estelle smiled.

"Lexi, Slam, Patch, Akito, cover the rear." Ace then commanded.

"You got it, Ace!" Lexi folded her arms in determination.

"Yeah!" Akito nodded firmly.

"What about us?" Felicity asked, referring to herself, Estelle, Simon, and Eloise.

"Yeah." Estelle added.

"We're goin' in," Ace told them. "When Dumb and Dumber get started, I'll signal the others."

"Okay." Estelle, Eloise, and Felicity agreed.

"Count to three and push the red button." Ace handed a control to Duck, trusting that even he could do that.

"Oh, but what about me?" Pinkster asked. "What's my j-j-j-j--Assignment?"

"Hey, maybe Pinkster can push the button?" Duck suggested, giving the remote to the pig.

"Are you serious?" Akito asked.

"Look, any dumbbell can push a button." Duck defended.

"I was thinkin' the same thing." Ace deadpanned.
