The police station was about one minute and forty-five seconds away. There were four of us, Lyndon Owl, his brother Kevin Owl, our friend Bruce Eale. We're pretty much your everyday criminal, but mostly people hire us to steal things, we get it and they pay us a lot of money. We just call it our job or a "job".My first Job was with Lyndon, we robbed a small bank in Mexico and got away with it. That was just for fun. Then a man by the name of Mr. Yale hired us to steal an artifact from a safe in Beverly Hills, too easy. After that Dr. Oxford hired us to break his brother out of jail, we did and blew a hole in the prison and the fence so we got away with that too, Kevin and Bruce joined us on that one. Next we stole military gear and Kevin dislocated his shoulder during that. Lastly we got in the drug business a little, but I didn't want to get too far in it. Afterwards we decided to settle down in LA.

Bruce moved in an apartment a few floors below Lyndon's. I wanted to get away from theat life and live in peace, and attempt to find Christ. Kevin continued his criminal life, he sold drugs, guns, and ran a prostitution ring, and he started his own gang called the Black Diamond Brotherhood. Lyndon started a company and became richer beyond belief. Before we ended our criminal careers we wanted to do one last job. We planned to rob the biggest bank in LA.

We all got in Bruce's car and drove to the bank, four men in their late twenties were about to rob the biggest bank in LA. We wore all black and Halloween masks, Kevin was a pig, Bruce was a wolf, Lyndon was an alien, and I was a zombie. We rushed in the large oak wood doors of the bank and fired our guns. This was going to be done right, Kevin went straight for the security guard at the front door, three bullets entered the guard's head. He looked over at us and we nodded he went to the security room. We already knew the cashiers pushed the button so we shot them too. While Bruce and Lyndon tied up the other people in the bank. I lined them up on the ground at the door. I stayed with the hostages until they came back with the money. Kevin came back moments later and tossed me security badges to show that he killed them. On the counter he pulled out a blunt and lit it. "Fuck, Pig, this is not the time to get high!" Our code names were based off our masks. 

"Shit." he said with the blunt still in his mouth, "I gotta get high for shit like this man." I grumbled and focused on the job. Bruce and Lyndon ran out with the money and said "Thirty seconds before-Pig?!"

"What?" said Kevin. "It keeps me focused." Bruce shook his head and we all ran out with the money. We drove down to Venice Beach and pulled in to an ally. I got out changed clothes and switched bags. My car was parked close by so I walked to it. Bruce dropped off the otherz and rode with Lyndon as they torched his car. We got away with the millions we just stole and LA was now our new home.

Afterwards Kevin owned two homes. One in the city, and one in the bad part of LA. He would drive nice cars and wore nice clothes until he got to the bad part of town and switch clothes and cars so he'd look like a thug. Bruce told us he had some problems so he went to rehab and a mental institution, We were all afraid he might talk but he didn't. He is seeing a therapist named Alexandra Bolvi.  Lyndon continued to run his business and did illegal things on the side, and I retired from all of it, I lived in the county and lived peacefully.

My name is Irish June. I am a retired criminal. I was retired for six years then each of my friends needed me for something different. First Kevin called me and said he needed my help. He told me the situation and I told him "I guess it's time to come out of retirement."
