The thief reaches into the broken case unfazed by the alarm, shoves the book in his bag and takes off down the long marble hall lined with artistic paintings. The thief takes a sharp left towards the fire exit. He makes his way to the car hidden in the alleyway and the car door opens instantly. The minute the thief enters, it takes off with police sirens blaring behind them as they drive off into the night. (Note this one actually is kinda finished short story, kinda not)
- "The hail fell down to the Earth as if it were a drummer boy banging on his drum, the lightning cracked across the sky. She felt as if it she had a thin layer of ice on her face, the thin gloves she used to protect her hands against the cold weren’t working. She knew she had to follow through though, she had made a promise that she was destined to keep."
- "I looked onward as the fire continued to blare, smoke forcing itself onto what was once a blue sky."
- "It all began with a dream. The dream prophecies talk of. The dream of the woman in white."
