Heisters (RWBY modern AU fanfiction)

13: Day 2

They were back at the Oculus Trust Bank on their second day in mid-noon as it was a busy day in Atlas, which made it easier for the gang so they would blend in without getting caught by the police. 

Mercury was already sent inside with his new security uniform as Ironwood was recording everything that he and Mr. Port were saying in the same white van they were in before.

"I'm sure you already know how fine and wonderful our bank, Oculus Trust, is", Mr. Port's voice was heard through the earpiece. 

"I've heard", Mercury said as he walked in the halls with the jolly old man, "but I've never seen how wonderful it is. You don't mind giving me the tour, right?"

"Why, I would love nothing more but do so!" 

As Mr. Port walked Mercury down further, Cinder was doing her best by keeping the signal balanced and well. Roman and Qrow were both checking the surveillance cameras they had placed the other day to watch Mr. Port's every move as he showed Mercury the tour. 

"Here we have the upfront accountants", Mr. Port's said to Mercury. "They are in charge of keeping track that our trusty citizens pay their taxes right on time or before. They also help perform overviews of the financial operations of a business in order to help it run efficiently." 

Mercury looked to his right and saw a pretty and young woman with brown hair that was tied to a bun and caramel skin. She typing into her big calculator. It didn't take long for her to look up and caught his black eyes. He winked at her which caused the pretty woman to blush like a pink rose and look away with a slight giggle.

"Of course, under every desk we have here, there is an emergency button to press just in case if there was a robbery taken place in this bank." 

Mercury tried to hide his grin, knowing that it was going to happen anyway. 

"In front of the accountants, there is a giant bullet-proof glass to keep them protected from any harm", Mr. Port continued. "Though I know they aren't really at the front of this bank, but we need everyone here safe and kept away from anything horrible."

"Bullet-proof glass?" Roman repeated from Mercury's earpiece. "That's no fun." 

Again, Mercury tried to contain his wide grin as he tried not to laugh. 

"I'll now show you to the money handler's room", Mr. Port said as he lead Mercury down a hall with marble floors and white clean walls. Mercury never knew that there was more to this bank! Who knew it would be so fancy? Mr. Port had stopped right in front of a door with two large pillars in between. He had opened it, revealing to Mercury loads of money that were being handled by other people. Mercury wanted to internally scream as he watched his gates of heaven open to reveal his dreams coming true. But surely he knew that the vault carried a LOT more. 

"Here we have our finest and smartest employees who sort out the money from incomes, outcomes, or from the extra taxes. Of course, they have to sort out each dollar bill into its correct category so that way we stay organized. Once they are fully organized, they go straight to our main vault. But our vault can only hold up to $800,000,000,000. Impressive, huh?" 

"That IS very impressive!" Mercury said with fake enthusiasm, already knowing how much it currently held. "Just one question." 

"Ask away", Mr. Port said with a jolly smile. 

"Do you let the security guards get the keys and the pass code to the vault?" 

"Yes, we do. But they only use them for important matters." 

"What important matters exactly?" Mercury asked again. 

"Like if there was someone very important that had to use our vault to keep their rare valuables, that job would be up to you since you have to escort their treasured item safe and sound", Mr. Port answered. "Or, if the money needed to be transported to another bank or another country, it would be up to you to help carry our money to transportation. You understand now?"
