~Valencia, California, 2:43am

A man dressed in black came through the ceiling on a wire, landing softly on his feet and detached himself.

He stalked throughout the shop until he reached the whole in the wall where a safe was trying to be broken into by two other men.

The three of them continued trying to open it until the phone of the third man began to ring.

"Yeah?" He answered, listening to what he was being told, he took off his mask,"Where is he?"

And with that he ended the call and turned his attention to the two men,"Well, got to go."

So Rusty did.

~Santa Monica, California, 2:46am

Emilia had finally been sleeping, her insomnia worsening from the last heist they did. She was unable to get rid of the antsy feeling, a feeling of wanting to be active and thieving constantly. She rolled over in her and Rusty's bed with a groan to answer her phone that had been blaring.

"Hello?" Emilia asked groggily, rubbing her eyes from her much needed sleep.

"Mils," her brother replied.

"Danny, what are you doing?" She questioned him annoyed,"It's quarter to three."

Danny rubbed his hand down his face,"I know, I'm sorry. But it's Reuben."

Emili paused,"Whats happened?"

"He's had a heart attack." Emilia's eyes went wide as he spoke,"I got a call from Linus."

"No way. Shit, right, well, what's the plans? Does Rusty know?"

"Is he not with you?"

"Nah, he's out robbing some store. There's a vault- look, I'll ring him and he'll leave straight away. Where are you?"

"No, I've literally just hung up from a call with him. I'm on the jet," he told her with a groan,"I was coming back from doing a job when I got the call, so I'm turning round to you,"Danny sighed, wrecked with nerves.

"You told him instead of your sister?" She deadpanned.

"Mils not the time."

"Sorry, sorry. How far away are you?"

He paused,"About three hours. Rusty will be home soon, so start packing a few bags, eat, or get an hour's sleep because there's another job."

Emilia ran her hand through her hair,"What is it this time?"

"I'll tell you when I see you."

And with that the siblings said their farewells.

Rusty and Emilia walked hand in hand to the private jet Danny was in. Their other hand carrying a coffee each, and the latter wore sunglasses eventhough it was dark. When Emilia ended the call with Danny, she packed and got ready into her usual business-type attire but made the mistake of lying on her bed for a few minutes before she fell asleep. Rusty went into their bedroom and saw her flat out, dead to the world. His chest panged at the thought of waking her up but they had to head to the airport.
