Fury

Revenge

   That was easy, way to easy! The robbery was over with, they were back home, with thousands of crystals! Shade was standing next to Jaxion in the basement, the roots of the tree spread out across the walls as piles upon piles of water crystals, and some others such as earth and even lightning ones, were spread out before them.

   Jaxion was grinning, unable to contain the wonderful giddiness he felt from this accomplishment, he laughed loudly, almost sounding unhinged. Luckily the basement was soundproofed and practically a giant safe now. Jaxion eventually stopped laughing and rambling about his success, but he still couldn't stop grinning.

   Shade had backed up quite a bit, looking at him with concern as he continued staring at the piles of crystals. "This was so easy, so enjoyable to do! This has gained me more profit than the measly paycheck those bastards would give me! One day, and I have so much wealth, just like that...." He contemplated how the heist went, oh how easy it was to sneak in, disabling the cameras and unlocking the vaults, all without leaving a trace.

   After a while of standing there admiring his crime's payoff, he had the thought that he could do this again, and again. His revenge wasn't finished, he still had to put the place on fire, but it would be such a pity to lose all that wealth... So, he changed his plan. "Shade, we'll do this again! We'll rob the bank again, and then a third time to completely clean them out. After that... hehe, they'll go up in flames! Perhaps I can even make those bastards go up in flames with their bank~."

   He ginned wider, however possible, and laughed again. This time his laugh was darker, surely unhinged and crazed with greed, crazed with revenge... Shade realized this as her eyes widened, backing off even more from the elf laughing crazily, staring at the piles of crystals. She whined, realizing that helping him get this over with didn't help him... it just made things worse.

   When Jaxion calmed down, or rather became to exhausted and crashed, they headed to bed. The daily routine was almost ignored, dinner wasn't made but he promised a very good breakfast in the morning before he collapsed into his bed, barely remembering to cover himself neatly with the sheets.

Shade jumped up, but moved to sleep towards the edge of the bed, at the end away from the quickly asleep and crazed elven thief. She sighed, looking at him sadly before falling asleep herself. She was wishing that none of this had happened, and felt sorry for all those this had affected as nightmares plagued her, yet she couldn't leave him to his insanity alone... In her sleep, sometime in the night she cuddled up against him, wishing they could both just have some peace of mind after all this was over, if it ever got over...
