"Hurry up!" whispered Ricky.

"I'm trying, shut up!" Chris retorted as he tried to open the safe. "Since you think it's so easy why you don't try."

"Open the safe smarty."

"Yeah that's what I thought." Chris smirked. Suddenly both men got flustered from a sound coming from the roof of the bank.

"Did you hear that?" Chris whispered trembling.

"I'm not deaf, give me a second. And stop trembling you look like a cold dog left in the rain." Ricky walked through the door and left the almost dying Chris so that he could check where the noise was coming from.

"Please God don't let me die. If you save me I promise never to listen to Ricky ever again."Chris murmured frantically as he rocked back and forth with his hands around his knees.

"Do you really mean that?" A voice called from the window. But maybe it wasn't even a voice, it sounded way too smooth, soft to be someone's voice .It made Chris want to rub his face against that voice, touch it. However that wasn't possible ,because that wasn't a voice, it couldn't be.......could it?

Before he could turn Ricky burst opened the door and yelled, "We got to get out of here they're here."

"Who?" Chris asked worriedly.

"The Night Avengers!" He practically screamed.Chris froze on spot and began to tremble even harder than before.Suddenly the lights went out.Ricky grabbed the bag of money from Chris pushing him over and ran to the door.

He was however bombarded by the avengers clothed in their dark cloaks and masked faces. No-one said anything. Ricky looked and realized that one of them was missing, so he tried to make a run for it.

"Took you long enough one shouted!" Ricky stopped dead in his tracks and looked in the direction in which she called.

The figure was like a flash before his eyes.He could not believe it, it was true all the rumors as faint as he could remember.Yet there she stood before him looking like a dark goddess with her legendary flowing black, smooth,shiny hair.

Chris fainted. Ricky still stood in awe before he managed to stumble over "Suede.......... Black Suede."
