The First Robbery

   That night, a disturbance happened at the bank. Someone broke in and stole the precious crystal that had been stored away by only one person, Jaxion Micheal Shawn. The police arrived, having been called by the manager who discovered this upon opening the bank, and had the place surrounded. This was a day that would change everything for many many people, all because of one crystal being stolen. No one had any idea of the days that were coming for them, no one was aware of the consequences of this one day.

   Jaxion woke up as usual, then woke Shade and continued to get ready for the day. They went through their morning routine, Jaxion got his work attire on, and they headed down for a quick breakfast before he left for work. They got to the dining room/kitchen and he prepared some quick seasoned scrambled eggs and glasses, or a bowl in Shade's case, of milk for them. He served the meal and they ate quickly. After putting the stuff away and cleaning up, he sat down in the comfy living room chair with Shade in his lap afterwords relaxing and petting her before his day of work.

   "You know Shade, I think I'll make Braised Deer Heart with Seasoned Potatoes for Dinner tonight. How's that sound?" he asked her, looking down to see her smiling face as she barked happily, not bothering with words. He smiled slightly, nodding as he relaxed back in his chair, petting her as her tail wagged from side to side slowly and happily relaxed.

   They stayed like this until his watch tinged, signalling it was time for him to head to work. Shade yawned and clambered off of his lap, stretching and standing as she waited for him. He got up gracefully and walked to the door, Shade following him to it as he walked out. Before the doors closed he said goodbye, her returning the words.

   After the doors closed he went on his way to work, and upon arriving he was quite surprised to say the least. The police had the place surrounded and the owner was there with the manager and a few of the employees, not looking happy at all.

   He walked up to them, obviously confused, but still very composed. They turned to him, suddenly both the owner and the manager's face turned very sour and seethed, looking down on him as he now felt very unsettled and even more confused.

   "You..." The manager growled out through clenched teeth. The other employees backed away some not wanting to get near whatever was going to happen. The owner glared at him, not stopping anything. "You did this... you let the crystal get stolen, if not stole it for yourself! How else would it have been taken so perfectly as to not trigger our alarms for our safest bank."

   He was practically spitting in anger, and Jaxion backed away a bit, quickly and so thankfully not getting anything on him. He was upset now, annoyed and furious that they dared accuse him of this! He clenched his jaws but kept his composure, glaring at them coldly as they glared back at him angrily.

   Soon enough before an actual physical fight between the elven bankers could start, the officers came over and said they could find no direct evidence against Jaxion, so they couldn't arrest him for the crime.

   He gave them a told-you-so glare as the officer continued, "We do need further investigation, however, so for now Jaxion must be put on a firing. Also, the bank will be closed down for the investigation," they explained to the now incredulous faces of the bankers. The officer left and went back to the others.

   The bankers turned to Jaxion, the now ex-banker. His face turned from a incredulous look of shock, to an anger that had him clenching his fists, to a helpless seeming face begging innocence as he turned to his fuming superiors. They yelled at him, telling him exactly what that officer had said and sent him back home.
