"Canal, this isn't fun. Its crime!!!"
"Relax. Now all you have to do is bump into him hard and fall down. Riley will do the rest, right Riley?"
"How do you know this stuff?"
"Ummm, I'm a part of the-"
"Circus, she does a lot of these acts."
"Yeah.... Circus...... I guess. Ready. Here he comes. Go Alex. Go. Riley follow him."
Alex came out of the alley with Riley not far behind. The man in the crisp suit was walking towards them. Alex looked down and avoided eye contact and bumped into him and dramatically fell down. Riley kept walking.
"Oh I'm sorry boy, are you hurt?"
"No sir, I'm f-ffine."
"Oh Alex!!! There you are!!!" Riley came back as she discreetly gave him a thumbs up "Sorry if he bothered you sir. We'll be leaving now. Good night sir."
"How much money?"
"Wow..... That's enough for a two weeks of good food."
"The money's yours kids. You kept the wallet back right?"
"Yep."
"You guys were good for someone who has never done this before."
"Thanks Canal..... If that is your name."
"What do you mean?"
"Oh shut up I'm 12. I know who you are."
"........... Pfft!!!! Whatcha talkin bout?"
"You're the girl on the news. Cash Rebel aren't you?"
"Hahahaha......... No"
"Yes."
"Fine I am. What are you gonna do about it?"
"Nothing. I think its awesome to outsmart cops and agents who are older than you. I think what you're doing is a lot of fun."
"You have no idea kid. Gotta go home now."
"For some reason. I'm feeling guilty. For taking his money. How do you live with it Cash?"
"By telling myself that I did the right thing."
"The fuck?"
"Judge all you want kids. Its true."
"Yeah right."
"Relax I'll be leaving tomorrow than your mom and so called Ken will be back."
"Never thought it would be this cool to have a babysitter who is an outlaw."
"Stop rubbing it in my face."
"Sorry."
"You know what? I like you two. So I want to give you something as your birthday present."
"But our-"
"In advance. So for Alex I've got this." She took out a small dagger which was hidden and disguised as a pen. "Here"
"A pen?"
"No. Open the other compartment."
"Woah!!!! Sweet."
"And for Rylie here." She took out a taser which was hidden in a black ring "Anyone annoying you and you give them a taste of that." She clicked a button and a electricity crackled on the outside "Careful with it though. Both of you."
"Thanks Cash."
"Finally the appreciation I deserve."
"Hey, what are you going to do next? Rumor has it that you're in jail."
"I am. And my next plan?
The President."
