My Little Psychopath

The Job

I opened my eyes to the night sky. I noticed I had fallen asleep. Weird... must be because I haven't killed anyone to get energy. Also another reason for this terrible feeling I have. I held my hand to my forehead. I was burning up. Is this collar killing me? I started having this high temperature since it was on. I noticed a note lying beside me. It had a little fox head for the envelope sealer. I opened it and took out the letter. 'Come to the Coastarian Museum~♡' I crumpled up the letter. I stood up and looked around. I jumped off the crates I was on. I headed towards the museum she mentioned. When I finally arrived, I climbed my way to the top of building. Maybe she wanted to meet me here or this was her way of telling me, 'this is where the diamond is'. My foot hit something on the ground. I looked down. It was a bag, a duffel bag. I knelt down and opened it. It had a picture, hair spray, a grappling hook, and a mask. I held up the mask and rolled my eyes. I threw it behind me. I stood up and left the bag. I put the grappling hook on my waist, I looked at the picture. It was a picture of the jewel she wanted. I looked at the hair spray. Maybe there's a reason for this. I stuck it in my back pocket, it wasn't that big. I peered through the skylight dome they had on top of the museum. There was a device attached to a part of it. I examined it closely. I tapped it, it began moving. It moved in a circle, piercing the glass. It made a full circle and fell through. I caught it just in time, my arm halfway through the newly cut hole. It was big enough for me to go through. I tied the grappling hook around a piece of the building. I wrapped the end around my waist. I looked down in the building, I jumped. I grabbed the rope to stop myself from falling all the way down. I grunted as I received a rope burn as a result. I stated a good amount of distance away from the ground. I tried figuring out my next move, then I remembered the hair spray. I grabbed it out from my back pocket. I sprayed it all around me. Red lines piercing the air showed up. One was just underneath my feet. I untied the rope from around my waist. I jumped down and avoided the lasers. I let the rope go, it was just hanging from the roof. I made my way through the red lines that could trigger an alarm if touched. I got myself in a tricky situation in the process. I had my foot out in front of me, going under another like in a game of limbo. I lifted my head to a line. I couldn't stand up, I would hit it. I couldn't fall back, that would result the same. I moved my upper body to the right, trying to crouch over. I went under the red lines successfully. I went up to the podium that was holding the jewel. I inspected the podium. Making sure there was no pressure plate. I took the jewel. I heard a loud noise. 'Security Breach' an electronic voice said. I ran to the rope of the grappling hook. I heard guards barge into the room. They were shooting at me. I climbed up faster and pulled up the rope. I made it out. I took off running. I jumped to another roof, tumbling after landing. I ended up on my back. I felt terrible, my body was heating up. I laid there for a moment. When I finally got up there were already police helicopters around the area. I jumped off the roof and took cover from their spotlights. I had left the duffel bag on the roof, so I had to hold the diamond. I ran around the neighborhood and found myself in an alley. I knew that psycho would find me somehow. I saw some gaurds walk by in front of the alley. I hid behind a dumpster. They walked away. I got up from crouching. I heard some voices and footsteps. I hid the diamond near me. They turned the corner. It looked like a gang of some type, great. "Hey! What are you doing out here this late?" One said to me. "I could ask you the same thing" I replied. "Alright wise guy, you better skidaddle before you get yourself hurt" he threatened me. I stopped leaning on the wall and walked in light. "You better watch out, there are some dangerous things at night" I warned him. They a good look at me. Even if I didn't have my powers, I had way better physique than them. No doubt. "Alright, you picking for a fight" he said. He was about to approach me, when he was stopped. A female jumped down and had her arm around his neck. She held a knife to his neck. "He's mine! Ya hear?" She pressed the knife down a little. "Yeah yeah!" She let him go. "Don't sweat it toots" he said to her. She made a slicing motion in front of her neck. The 'Gang' ran away. "I didn't need your help" I said to her. "Who said I was helping you" she said passing me. She grabbed the diamond. "He's mine?" I repeated her words and questioned them. She smiled. "Your my errand boy, I need you alive. For now..." She flicked her tail. I rolled my eyes. "I won't be for long" I told her. She chuckled. "Dandi" she said. "What?" I asked turning around. "I'm Dandi" she did a curstey. I stared at her. "Well? Aren't you gonna introduce yourself?" She said annoyed. "Do you want me to run errands for you or vice versa?" I said with a smirk. She groaned and rolled her eyes. "I'll figure out anyway" she said and ran away. She disappeared in the shadows.
