The next morning Tucker passed by to get Clay to head towards Kaito’s palace. They went with the motorcycle, just chitchatting leisurely about the success of the heist and spending of their opulence. They reached the house to find Zack already their, satisfaction was filling the room, for the first time their was no nervousness nor different point of views. “I still can’t believe what you have done Clay, I kept memorizing all the details to spot a wrong part, but there were none. Everything was done by the book, I don’t think anyone else can do that.” Kaito continued praising him. Clay smiled, he was wordless, so he changed the topic. “I haven’t seen them yet.” He mentioned. “I slept with them.” Kaito said sarcastically, and chuckled.

Kaito spread out the bank notes on the table, “We haven’t smelled this odor in ages.” Tucker called out. “Probably you have calculated how it is going to be distributed.” Clay said. “Yeah a million times, but I don’t know why the same number keeps popping up every time.” Kaito mentioned funnily. Clay giggled, “I have a thing, I want the money to be disturbed on five, not four. Elsa put her life in danger to follow my plan, I want to credit her for that.” Clay stated. “Don’t worry about Elsa, our money will always be together. I am not planning to dump her yet.” Kaito said sarcastically. Elsa punched him gently and giggled. “No Clay, you can consider my help as a supporter. If someone has to take more money it should be you.” She said. “Well, if neither of you want to take more money, I am here for assistance.” Tucker claimed in sarcasm.

Kaito laid his drink down, “I have packed your share. Everyone is taking 1.3 Billions in both cash and credit, so 650 millions of cash, that’s your share.” Kaito explained. “Not bad.” Clay said sarcastically. “Hey, we celebrate tonight. I’ll hold the costs of a simple expensive meal tonight.” Kaito said. “Yup, we need that, but now I’ll be heading to the school, haven’t went there for a long time. Honestly I missed it.” Clay stated. “Yeah, coming with you. Damn it have been a long while since the last visit.” Tucker added. “Ok, you hit the school, I’ll be busy here, cuddling with my new papers.” Kaito said. “See you tonight lads.” Zack claimed and went out with Clay and Tucker.

Tucker and Clay rode the motorcycle, while Zack hopped in the four-wheel-drive car. Tucker took Clay to the school quickly, and as soon as they reached the school Clay started remembering it all, like it had happened yesterday. He remembered all the memories, everything. Clay was a like an important figure to the school's history till now. He is often remembered as the only student in the history if the school, who forced every teacher in the school, yet respect him. He was like a legend that every generation keeps telling about to the younger generations, and proceeding. Every single human being in the school knows the stories of Clay Thompson, his fights that he always win, the red zone he made to the other schools to never let any outsider to think about harming any of the school's students. He was like a protector to the school.

Some students even suggested to build a statue of him, to honour his glorious history, but the idea was rejected by a couple of jealous heads in the school. Eventually because of Clay's well-known name, he ascended with the surname Thompson too high, that he made a good reputation for his brother as well. Tucker Thompson the brother of Clay Thompson. Tucker was never jealous about the fact that Clay was the one who got them respect and prestige originally, he often honoured his brother for that. Clay constantly gave visits to the school ever since he graduated, because he thinks everything started here, right here in his school.

Tucker parked the motorcycle, and walked inside the gate with Clay. “Richard, how are you doing?” Clay greeted the guard of the school’s gate, he was now an old man, but he was the guard since Clay and Tucker were both in the school, he grew up guarding their school, visualizing every generation. “Clay? Clay how are you doing? How are you Tucker? Here the Thompsons have arrived.” The man ran up heavily and hugged both of them, enthusiastically, and a smile of joy has been drawn on his face. Tucker and Clay took the stairs down to the playground of the children. The guard stared a little bit on the children playing, and running after each other.

Clay and Tucker walked to an old wall, a wall which looked ancient more than any wall the school had. On this wall Clay and Tucker had their names and their surname carved in it. Clay reached out his hand, and moved it on the carve, he wasn’t just touching bricks, he was touching his past. “Yes, it is the only wall unpainted for years, and never will be, as long as the school keeps repairing.” A kid came across to Clay and Tucker beside their wall, he knew them, but it was the first time he actually saw them. “I am glad to see you. I have always heard stories about you, everything you have done. I don’t know if there are any rumours, but I have believed everything.” The kid said. “Whatever you heard kid, it is true. No matter how unbelievable it was, it has happened.” Tucker replied, and tapped on the kid's shoulder.

The kid went back to stand with one of his friends, still staring at Clay and Tucker. “Who are they?” His friend asked. “Who are they? Are you serious? You must be kidding me. These are Clay and Tucker Thompson, two people who were known across the whole district and the whole school. They are even more important than the principal. I haven’t seen them in real when they were at their prime, but I have heard a lot. No one dares to mess with them.” The kid replied to his friend. Clay and Tucker were sneakily hearing his words and smiling uncontrollably. “You sure have raised our names up brother.” Tucker praised his brother, and tapped on his back.
