Staring into the abyss

A/n: I do realize I said school earlier and this is a bank...Lets act like that never happened and I said bank alright??? :D *Ignores long absence*

Looking up I could tell that it would be easy to climb, but I wasn't worrying about that right now. I was worried about my escape. If I made it in successfully I was sure I could steal whatever the job was. So I wrapped my arms around a sturdy pipe, and started the climb.

"You there?"

"Yeah, what's up?"

"What are we stealing from here again? This sounds really risky"

"Give me the letter then, I'll read it"

"Left pocket."

I felt his shadow hand reach into my pocket as I reached the top of the gutter, and I could hear the paper crinkle slightly as he unfolded it. I only remembered that it was to get in here, and find something.

"Apparently there was a few papers in here that can get ya a fine million a piece."

"I'm gonna guess I am getting threatened?"

"Precisely. 'You fuck up this one, and I'll have me a nice feathered cap'. Thats what they said."

"..."

"..."

I just sighed, this one was annoying as hell. And why my feathers huh? Do you know how long it takes for them to grow back? Fucking days! Weeks! Months! I had one gone for a year!

And exactly how are we getting in here too...

There is a vent system but don't they have solid bars on that?

I'm sure there isn't a backdoor, so thats out of the question.

I'm sure you've got this, don't worry.

Thats just your way of saying "I'm too dumb to figure it out so goodluck!~"

I swear-

My thoughts were cut off as I could feel the feathers on the back of my neck shift, meaning someone was there. I immediately scrambled to a darker corner, hiding myself in the dark using Dark shadow, since he was a black thing, I hid pretty well.

From my position hidden in the shadows, I could see a person approaching. His face looked like he had some sort of scar on it and I wondered if he had burned his face or something. He had cloak on him as well. I could hear him talking to himself as if he had a radio on.

"And where even is my partner? You said I had a helper"

I could hear a voice come from within the folds of his cloak, meaning he did have a radio or something inside

"If he's not there, then proceed as protocol."

I started to listen in on their conversation now, genuinely curious.

Toko, curiosity killed the cat, didn't it?

Yeah, and I'm a bird, whats your point?

I'm saying be careful before you get yourself hurt!

Do I look like I'm coming out of this shadow?

No but still!

Shh, I'm still listening.

The cloak man started to chat with the Radio, presumably waiting for someone.

"And exactly what do they look like? I don't see anyone"

"Supposedly black."

"What?"

"The color, Dabi. Not the fucking race."

So this person was named Dabi? I'd heard that somewhere before. And now that I looked at him, that scar is familiar as well.

"The hell am I supposed to think? You're telling me to look for a black person"

"AS IN HE IS BLACK LIKE THE SHADOWS. BLACK FEATHERS.

"Ohhhh..."

I looked at him, fighting with myself on whether to show myself or keep hiding.

What do you think, Shadow?

I say hide. We don't know this guy.

True, but he did say black feathers, and I am a crow.
