Chapter 10: The Unexpected III
...........
That's the last thing Barney remembered before blacking out again, "I didn't tell the cat much, did I?"
Here he was inside a strange place, a nostalgic place. Well, actually not at all, they have the place. With him was Mike and their savior Ralf.
Directly after robbing the bank and stashing everything, Ralf made his way towards the museum to pick up the two. He did indeed do that, their passed out bodies that is.
Thankfully, he was there on time, in fact, he was there quite early. He called Ian directly after that, and the latter simply told him, 'Change your clothes to a beggar's and stay in the warehouse for now, fit in with the homeless ones in there.'
Ralf understood right away and complied. The possibility of the cat following them is there, so they couldn't possibly return to the base or meet with Ian.
Ian was also busy as he himself emptied their base of operation. Now that sounds like some advanced shit, but in reality, it's just the apartment they rented.
He also changed to his natural looks. He took out the blonde wig and the black contact lenses. His natural black hair and brown eyes were his favorites after all, and he wouldn't change his looks for anything.
And now he is in a shared line with the other three, "Hmm, let me think for a bit, my brain is quite slow, so I need to think a lot in intense situations. Also, refer to me as anything but my name."
And he indeed took his time to the point that Barney couldn't hold his curiosity back and asked, "How did you know that she would appear?"
Ian did after all pretend to give them the valuables when he was planning to keep them with him from the start.
Moreover, he took everything from them in a somewhat hidden location, not seeable from the glass windows of the museum.
"Well, I was actually more afraid of the bat catching. I never saw a cat coming at all. I'm also extremely resistant to death, so I was planning on taking the valuables with me anyway."
"Resistant to death? I mean you kinda are, wait... You're definitely are." Barney seemed to agree while Mike beg otherwise.
"Nah, I think it's just luck. It's like the world simps for you. I noticed it way back, but am even more sure now."
"Hmm, we will lay low for like a week. I actually don't know what to do. I mean the last thing I thought would happen is having a fucking cat on my back. It's like common sense is losing it.
Also, I honestly feel like I can't think currently. This piece of diamond definitely has some magic spell that muddles the mind, I can't take my eyes off it.
I will contact you when my brain starts working again, and don't forget to destroy your sim cards and use the ones already prepared, I will contact you through them the next time."
There was a bit of silence for a while before Mike wondered only in his mind, 'What if he leaves with... the diamond? I probably would if I were in his place... No, I shouldn't think like th...'
He was interrupted by the crying sound of his best friend, Barney, "W-what's going on? Are you okay?"
"I'm not!! I want to see it so much, and I want to hold it forever. It was sooo close yet that pussy crazy fucking ((&&*%$ Cat!!"
Mike took a quick gulp, he has never seen his friend be so emotional. Moreover, his expression was kind of scary. He knew that Barney was petty but it seemed to have reached new heights.
"Calm down, and have some trust in Him. He will figure something out." Ralf calmly stated as he took a long smoke. That's something he got into recently.
"You aren't worried at all?" Mike wondered, truly curious.
Ralf eyed him before shaking his head, "I know what's in your mind but not really. I'm a bit different from you two, I'm old and I just want to live life. What we have been doing... It made me feel alive."
Of course, someone would be afraid of what Ian would do. Greed is one of the gospels in the Gothamlical bible, something they're used to, so they wouldn't find it strange if he decided to keep everything to himself.
They were patient, and so was Ian. However, only a few days passed before something strange happened.
Once Ralf woke up, he found a small piece of paper next to him. 'I'd like to meet your boss. Tell him to contact me here if he agrees.'
Written next to that was a phone number, and Ralf instantly understood what was going on. He called Ian right there and then and let him know.
"Hmm, let me think... I have a better idea. I used this time to get myself an Id, and I rented a place. Get a pen and write on the paper 'He'll meet you on the east side of the city, next to the monarch theater at 10 Pm, tomorrow.'
I will send you a message with the location of the apartment only when I meet her. Then you can head there. Also, send me the number just in case."
Ralf finally let a sigh of relief. He had started getting used to sleeping on a large comfy bed and eating delicious things, so it was a bit difficult fitting in here.
It wasn't long before the night came, and the three slept, the same as everyone else in the warehouse.
Only then did the visitor come. Someone walked into the warehouse, through the sleeping beggars, silently and slowly as it's her house.
The woman was wearing a black latex full body suit tightly fit around her seductive body, a hood with cat ears mounted on top.
She silently picked up the piece of paper and took a glance at it before making her way out of the warehouse, in full understanding of his thought process.
'I really really hate dealing with troublesome people. However, I will get the diamond one way or another, and how troublesome can one man really be?'
Ian stayed true to his word and indeed waited for her in an alleyway near the theater. Cats have strong senses, so he knew she'd eventually find him.
He just waited while eating a taco in his hand unaware that she had already arrived. She was just observing him from the shadows, taking his picture from afar.
She didn't keep him waiting for long as she walked from the darkness of the alleyways towards with slow seductive steps, already working on seducing him.
"Well... Hmm, a sadist or a masochist? Or is your work being a dominatrix or something?"
"What????"
