Shizuka shrugged with a smile. Then a puzzled look came across her face. "What are we stealing, no one ever told me...." She questioned looking around in the room. Keeping watch, Shizuka patrolled the room making sure that everything was a go.

"We'll be taking this," Rio said quietly as he looked up to the painting that they had come there for. It was about five feet by eight feet, it would require at least two people to carry. "Okay guys, here's the plan." he whispered to Shizuka and Jojo, "Jojo, you help me carry the painting, Shizuka, you will continue to be our lookout on the way back to the skylight room." he switched his mic over once again, "Alright Nadia, Robert, we're ready, lets do this!"

"Got it." Robert nodded to Nadia. "Three, two, one. Go." He flicked a switch and off went the security. Pressure sensors, trip lasers, and cameras went off. Unfortunately, so did the guards communication and many of the lights. Robert dashed out of the room with Nadia behind him. He engaged the lock before leaving to by some time.

Nadia rushed out of the hallway, following Robert through the darkened hallways, trying not to run into anything. They reached the stairs and she waited for Robert to take the lead, not knowing if he wanted to go slow and avoid being seen or move quickly to get out of there.
She glanced around quickly and didn’t see any guards, but then heard one trying to talk on his mic in a nearby hallway, “Yo, Joe, you there? What’s up with this lights thing? Joe? You pullin’ a prank on me my first night?” “We need to get out of here,” she whispered to Robert, knowing he had heard the guard as welll, “We’ve got maybe seconds before he realizes that it’s not a prank.”
She turned to the stairs and jogged up as quickly and silently as she could, heading straight for the skylight room. As she was moving, she pressed a button on her mic, “Ok Rowan, lower the ropes, we’ll be there in a minute.”

"Alright guys! Let's go!" Rio whispered after the lights had gone out, "Shizuka, stand here and make sure no ones coming, Jojo, i need you to help me lift this painting off the wall!"

"I copy." Rowan drops two ropes and slides down so he can help with the painting. "Everything is ready for you guys." Rowan keeps his eye out for any guards if they were to walk by.

Shizuka nodded and pranced out the to stairwell then her face grew with shock as the guards started to gather right below the stairwell. Shizuka let out a few curse words under her breath as she dashed back inside the building. "Rio, there are like seven guards down there, how do we get around that..?" she asked nervously.

"Leave that to me," a faint whisper from behind them barely reached their ears. Kurai moved closer, an impression of a smile flitting across the shadows. "Sorry I'm late, Rio."
He patted Shizuka on the head, then dashed out onto the balcony - and jumped right off. He landed gracefully and became a whirlwind of limbs, striking out before the guards had any clue what was going on, hitting them in vunerable places to stun.
When all seven guards lay in a limp pile, Kurai shaded his eyes and looked back up towards the balcony. "Quick, or there'll be more where they came from!"

Shizuka turned her head back to Rio and Jojo. "If ya need anything, mic me." She said pointing to her earpiece. Shizuka then doved off the balcony and somersaulted onto the floor. Getting up she nudged one of the guards with her foot to see if he moved. He said nothing and did nothing. A sigh of relief escaped her mouth as she patrolled the rest of the wing they were in.

"Alright Jojo! Lets go!" Rio said as he began moving toward the exit with the painting. Heading back down the stairs to the main floor, but suddenly he noticed the sound of more guards coming down the hall at the bottom of the stairs. "Shizuka, Kurai!" he said into the mic, "We need some sort of diversion! We can't do much with this painting on our hands!"

"Anytime now guys." Rowan says into the mic. Rowan starts pacing back and forth waiting for them. "I guess I came down a bit early, haha." While Rowan is pacing a guard starts walking hastily by. He then spots Rowan. "Who are you?" Rowan looks at him and smiles. "I'm the guy that is robbing you." The guard pulls out a night stick and charges at Rowan and begins to yell. "Intrud" But Rowan grabs hand and kicks his foot making the guy fall over. The Rowan walks up and knocks him out. "You were being to loud." Rowan looks at the guys wallet containing $50. "Ahem, don't mind if I do."

Kurai winked, a broad grin on his face. "Rojer that!" He ran nimbly across the courtyard, jumped over a hedge, and almost right into a group of guards.
"Hey guys! They're still in there, I think they're going for the statue!!" He pointed towards the opposite end of the museum.
"WHAT?! Not the precious statue!"
"Hurry men, hurry! Run run run!"

"Great going Kurai!" Rio smiled as he and Jojo continued running with the painting. The painting didn't weigh too much, so it would be easy to tie a rope around it and hoist it through the skylight. "Hey Rowan!" he called over the mic, "We're gonna need an extra rope for this painting! Think you can help us out?" The skylight room was within sight now, he switched his mic over to universal frequency, "Everyone! We're done here! Get out ASAP!"

Kurai nodded to Shizuka, still smiling broadly. "I don't think we've met before, but if you're in the band, I trust you. I'm Kurai."

Shizuka smiled back and held in an upcoming blush. "No I don't believe we have, I am Shizuka, I am still learning, but I think I am catching on." she said then Shizuka turned her ears to the mic as Rio's words reverberated through the mic. "Gotcha, I guess that is our cue." She said with a shrug. Flipping and tumbling her way through the assorted rarieties in the museum. Shizuka looked up at Rowan waiting for him to throw the rope down. "Anytime now Row." Shizuka said through the mic while waving her arms up not knowing if he could see her.
