The criminal's alpha

Chapter 22

We met up with Miguel and Ashley, who had taken the truck, about two miles from the bank and started deciding how we would get everything done. Ashley had brought our bags to carry the cash out of, custom tailored to not blow up in case it was shot at, and enough ammo for the big gun for us to get in, get out, and still have ammo to let Jack fire back at anyone tailing us. Derek was with Jade and Johnny with Nicki who was working with a friend of Miguel to get the EMP set up. Supposedly it had a small enough range for it to only affect the electronics inside the building, Jade and Derek had the same job that Miguel and Ashley had: Keep the cops and any reinforcements they bring in busy while Jack and myself got the cash, today was 'transfer day' which meant they were getting all the cash from this year ready to a more secure safe somewhere in the middle of nowhere, so it was today or never. We pulled up to El Oro and Jack followed me into the bank, while Ashley got in the gunner's seat and Miguel drove into a nearby alley, waiting for my signal.

"We do this clean and loud, I wanna give the city of San Antonio a show they won't soon forget," I said over the radio to Ash and Johnny, who relayed it to their respective teams, before changing the channel to the one that Derek and Jade shared, "Once the charges are placed, drive past the bank and throw the detonator inside, Jack will pick it up and hand it to me when we get the cash."

"Got it, how many you want on the bridge?"

"Enough that if it was food even Amy Schumer would be full," I said and switched the radio station one last time to the one that Alex and Alejandra, her sister, were tuned to "You'll know when to start, your job is to create chaos, when we leave I don't want it repairable, but destroyed enough that no one will ever forget our names. Got it?"

"Yeah, see you after this is all over, Jakey."

"Don't. Call. Me. That," I said and turned off the radio, 'This should be easy, no cops to bug us, and everyone inside will either be too terrified to do anything or will be dead' I told Jack over the mind link, 'Let's just hope they don't call in the boy scouts, right?' he said, making me laugh, we had an inside joke from The Fate Of The Furious, that if anyone stopped us, it would be the boy scouts. 

"de luminaribus" I heard over the radio as the lights shut off, Jack and I shifted and could see in the dark, the cameras were dead so it was time. 

"IF YOU WANNA LIVE, STAY DOWN ON THE GROUND, DON'T FUCKIN' MOVE! " Jack yelled as I made my way towards the staircase that led to the vault, but I wanted to leave a quick message before I did so.

"Anyone that does gets a face full of lead, if you stay down and behave like good little hostages, you get a sammich," I said and headed down the stairs, and saw the security heading up the stairs towards me.

"Everythings down, you two stay down here and shoot anyone that walks down these stairs, we'll go see what happened, don't shoot if you here us say hey before walking down."

"That won't be necessary," I said and grabbed the guy in charge by the throat and threw him down the stairs, knocking another guy down and snapping his neck. I walked downstairs only to be met with gunfire, they were missing me by a long shot but it was fun to mess around with them, I walked around and was behind them when they stopped shooting.

"D-did we get him?"

"No, I don't think ya did," I said and smashed their skulls together, knocking them out cold, "Now, let's get that cash," I said and walked through the vault door, and kicked down the smaller gate to be met with pile after pile of cash. I opened our bags and started filling them with cash, only to hear the opening of gunfire above me, hastening my looting. 

"JAKEY! YA MIGHT WANNA HURRY UP DOWN THERE!" Jack yelled from the stairwell as I grabbed the last wad of cash and made my way towards the door.

"I'm coming, I'm coming, jeez," I said and handed him his bag, which he took and pointed towards the cops trying to break down the door.
