Walking down the damp streets of her hometown, Ava pulled her hood over her face, trying to hide her face from the outside world. "Okay, I'm on the street now...what's the number of the home again?" Ava whispers into the little microphone that her friend attached to her shirt.

Stella: 105 maple grove, remember to enter through the back of the house

Pulling out her phone to type the address into her google maps, a blue line popped up and showed that the house is just a few feet away. "Okay it's just up ahead, what am I stealing again?" Ava asked, slowly putting her phone back into her pocket while making her way towards the house that they're going to strike.

Walking up the laneway of the home she's about to rob, Ava let out a heavy sigh, not knowing if she should go through with this robbery or not. "Hey Stella, I can't do this I have a bad feeling about this place" Ava slowly made her way to the backyard.

Stella: what do you mean you can't do this? We planned this for months

Ava: I know...I feel bad but I.....just have a bad feeling

Stella: just go...once inside the home you'll be fine

Ava: you better be right

Stella: come on! Have I ever been wrong on a robbery yet?

Ava: no

Stella: than get going

Looking at the slightly open window, Ava sighed heavily, debating if she should go on with the plane or just call it a day and head for home, "Fine I'll do it...but you oh" Ava replied, making her way towards the window with the bravest face she could muster.

But the closer she got to the window with the pile of logs lying underneath it, her smile slowly feel into an uncertain stare "well...here goes nothing"
