*"It's going to be quick, we go in, get in and get out, it's that simple"*.

*"What about the cops?"*

*"It'd take the cops 5 minutes to reach, by then we'd be gone, no slipping"*.

Jake seemed to be pretty confident about his plan. He had planned this heist for 3 months and today was the day he'd finally execute it. He had put together a team of qualified people, a getaway driver, a locksmith, the muscle guy and of course his friend Luke.

*"Mask on everybody, it's show time"*.

Four masked men ran into the bank holding guns and bags.
*"Everybody down!!!!"* Jake shouted, firing so shots to the ceiling. People complied without any hesitation. They didn't waste time with the cashiers. The security guards were already on the ground too. 
*"No killing, we take what we came for, and we go!".
He led the team to the vault like he had helped build the bank. It was clear that he really did prepare for this heist. It didn't take much time for the locksmith to get the vault open, revealing what seemed like a endless pile of cash.

*"Three minutes!"*
The getaway driver was positioned just out a pastry shop at the other side of the block, waiting for the signal, timing himself. They moved like they were possessed. They loaded their bags with money and headed straight for the exit. The heist was going according to how he had planned it. 

Someone had triggered the alarm and the cops were on their way. Jake's plan was cop proof. They made it to the driver and took off. He had planned for them to stop beside a sewer hole, where they'd use to move to an opening just 5 blocks away. He planned for a car to pick them off there, no cop on their tail. It worked out just fine. They made it to the other car an drove off to their secret hideout.

*"I told you, plain and simple, we get in, we get out and now we're each a million dollars richer"*.

Wasn't long before they made it to the hideout, it was a plan well done. The was no way the police would have ever caught them. They laughed about it an went on to count the money proper.

*"Boss!! the cops!!"* the muscle guy screamed.

*"It's impossible, there's no way they could have find us, someone must've sold us out",

*"Quick, gather the cash and make a run for it"*, Luke said packing dollar notes into the bag.

It was too late, the police had surrounded the area and had broken down the door. It was too late for any of them to escape. They were handcuffed and the money was recovered.

*"Will someone take these cuffs off me"*, Luke shrugged as an officer walked towards him with the keys.
*"Luke?"*
*"that's officer Luke to you"*, the cop replied, uncuffing Luke.

*"We've been on your case for a while Jake, I was sent as an undercover cop to watch you and get proof about all the heists you've been pulling"*.
*"But we're brothers, we drank together, heck, I even invited you to my home, you met my family"*

*"You should've chosen another line of business, you're going away for a longgg time"*.
