Shred was always drawn to the thrill of the hunt. As a Cerealian bounty hunter, he lived for the adrenaline rush of tracking down and capturing his targets, and spending his current time on earth deduced to the alien from beyond the stars that the Earth’s local law enforcement… Was rather pathetic. It was then during his latest routine checkup of his high-tech equipment of armour and weapons, when he received a message from an infamous burglar known only as "The Shadow," he couldn't resist the lure of a different kind of job. The Shadow had planned a daring and elaborate heist, and they needed someone with Shred's unique set of skills to pull it off. The job promised a huge payoff, and Shred was tempted by the prospect of becoming fabulously rich.
He met with The Shadow and their crew to discuss the details. The plan was risky and required a team of highly skilled individuals, each with their own area of expertise. Shred was impressed by the ingenuity of the plan and knew that his sniping skills would be crucial to its success. Shred met The Shadow and their crew in a rundown warehouse on the outskirts of town. The air was thick with tension as they discussed the details of the heist.
"So, Shred," The Shadow said, "do you think you're up for this job?"
Shred smirked. "Please, I could take out a guard from a mile away with my right eye closed."
The Shadow raised an eyebrow. "Impressive. But this is more than just taking out guards. We need to get in and out without anyone noticing."
"I know," Shred said. "That's why I'm here. You need my sniping skills to take out any guards that get in our way."
The Shadow nodded. "Fair enough. But we need to be quick and efficient. We only have a small window of opportunity before the guards change shifts."
"I understand," Shred said. "I'll be in position before anyone even knows we're there."
"Good," The Shadow said. "Now let's go over the rest of the plan."
As they went through the details, Shred felt a sense of excitement building within him. This was going to be a challenge, but he was confident that they could pull it off. And with the promise of a huge payout, he knew that it was worth the risk. The day of the heist arrived, and the crew assembled outside the museum. Shred took his position at the designated sniper point, ready to take out any guards that got in their way. The heist went off without a hitch. The crew worked seamlessly together, each member playing their part to perfection. Shred's sniper skills were crucial to their success, taking out guards with deadly accuracy.
First, they had to disable the security cameras and alarms without alerting the guards. Shred's expert marksmanship came in handy here, as he was able to take out the cameras and sensors from a distance with precision shots. The crew then used their hacking skills to bypass the remaining security measures and gain access to the vault. Once inside the vault, they were faced with a maze of laser sensors that criss-crossed the room. But the Shadow had come prepared with a set of blueprints that showed the exact pattern of the lasers. They carefully made their way through the maze, with Shred taking out any guards that came too close. Finally, they reached the vault itself, a massive steel door with an advanced locking mechanism. The Shadow quickly got to work on cracking the code, while Shred kept watch for any guards that might try to interfere. After several tense minutes, the door finally swung open, revealing the piles of Zeni inside.
As they made their escape, Shred felt a sense of exhilaration. They had pulled off the heist of a lifetime, and he knew that The Shadow and their crew would be rich beyond their wildest dreams. He had played a crucial part in their success, and he was looking forward to his cut of the take. But as he walked away from the scene, a nagging feeling started to grow in his gut. He had just helped a group of criminals steal a valuable artifact, and he could not help but wonder if he had made the wrong decision. He pushed those thoughts aside, reminding himself that he was in it for the money.
At that moment, the police arrived on the scene, sirens blaring in the distance. But the crew was ready for them, having prepared an escape route in advance. They quickly gathered up as much Zeni as they could carry and made their way to the roof, where they had a helicopter waiting to whisk them away. Shred covered their escape with his sniping abilities, taking out any police officers that got too close. The crew made it to the helicopter just as the police arrived on the roof, but they were able to take off before the officers could get a shot off. As they flew away, the crew counted their spoils, grinning at the sheer amount of Zeni they had obtained. Shred looked out the window, a sense of satisfaction washing over him. He knew he had just pulled off one of the greatest heists in history, and he couldn't wait to do it all over again.
The authorities soon caught wind of the heist and launched an investigation. The Shadow and their crew were quickly identified as the culprits, and a massive manhunt was launched. Shred knew that he had to act fast. He had no intention of going down with the rest of the crew. With a smirk on his face, he quickly made his way to the cockpit of the ship and opened up a communication channel to the nearest police station. "This is Shred, the Cerealian Bounty Hunter," he spoke into the microphone. "I have information on a group of criminals who have just pulled off a heist on the city's central bank. I am willing to give you their location and identities in exchange for a full pardon for my own crimes."
The voice on the other end of the line was sceptical, but Shred was convincing. He gave them everything they needed to know about the Shadow and the rest of the crew, including their names, physical descriptions, and last known whereabouts. Within minutes, police ships arrived on the scene, their weapons at the ready. The Shadow and the rest of the crew had no chance against the onslaught of firepower. They were quickly apprehended and taken into custody, while Shred watched from the safety of his ship. As he looked on, Shred could not help but feel a sense of satisfaction. He had gotten away with the heist, and had managed to double-cross the Shadow and the crew in the process. And now, he was free to enjoy the spoils of his ill-gotten gains without any fear of retribution.
He was now a wealthy man, laughing at how this was by far one of the easiest heist he had ever been a part of. He had betrayed The Shadow and their crew, and he knew that he would never be able to trust anyone again. But as he counted his riches, he could not help but wonder if it had been worth it… Which funny enough only lasted for five seconds, before Shred started to laugh and went back to counting his Zeni. That was when Shred's personal A.I unit named 'Oracle' came online within the High-tech armour that the Cerealian Bounty Hunter came online, deciding to talk to the man. "So, I take it the Heist went well, Shred?" The Artificial Intelligence asked the man, looking at him through the visor helmet that he wore.
Shred grinned as he looked up at the A.I. unit's holographic form projected from within his helmet. "Oh, it went better than well, Oracle," he replied, his voice laced with satisfaction. "I got away with a fortune, and nobody was the wiser."
"That's good to hear," Oracle said, "but I must remind you that the Shadow and his crew were your partners in the heist. You have no loyalty to them, but they might seek revenge if they find out you betrayed them."
Shred scoffed. "Let them try," he said, his eyes gleaming with confidence. "I'll take them out before they even know what hit them."
Oracle's holographic form seemed to frown. "I don't recommend that course of action," the A.I. said. "It would only draw more unwanted attention to you."
Shred chuckled. "Don't worry, Oracle," he said. "I'll be careful. But for now, I'm going to enjoy my newfound wealth."
With that, Shred powered up his ship's engines and took off into space, leaving behind the remnants of his past and his former partners. Little did he know that the planet Earth, regardless of how primitive it was, turns out to be a dangerous place, and his actions would have consequences he could not even imagine if he was not careful. "Ah, that reminds me. Oracle, proceed to open Diary Log entry 003 - Earth Based Heist Operation. I wish to store this for future knowledge about any future heists on this planet and the foolish Earthlings that inhabitants and scum that dwell within." Shred said, licking his lips, having a taste for money, especially being able to get away with a good amount of zeni and double cross the thieves in the process. "Make sure you add this to the Diary list."
"Of course, Shred," Oracle replied, its holographic form flickering as it accessed the requested data. "Diary Log entry 003 - Earth Based Heist Operation has been opened and recorded. Is there anything else you would like me to add to the entry?"
Shred paused for a moment, thinking. "Yes, add a note that the Shadow and his crew are to be considered hostile and to be avoided at all costs," he said. "And also, add a note that I'm open to future heist operations on Earth, should the opportunity arise."
"Understood," Oracle said, updating the Diary Log accordingly. "Is there anything else you require, Shred?"
"No, that will be all for now," Shred said, leaning back in his seat. "Just keep monitoring the bounty boards for any new contracts. I'm always looking for my next big score."
"Affirmative," Oracle replied. "Monitoring the bounty boards is one of my primary functions. I will inform you immediately if any new contracts matching your criteria are posted."
"Excellent," Shred said, grinning wickedly. "Let's see what the galaxy has in store for me next." The Cerealian Bounty Hunter proceeded to click his neck from side to side, readying himself for his next personal task with the Diary Log now opened, "Now... To make my audio recording for this diary log." Shred said, as he coughed to make sure his voice and presentable. Shred cleared his throat and activated the recording device built into his Armor. "Diary Log entry 003 - Earth Based Heist Operation," he began. "Today, I successfully executed a heist on Earth with the help of a group of skilled thieves. The plan was risky, but we were able to pull it off flawlessly, and I managed to double-cross the Shadow and his crew to keep all of the Zeni for myself."
He paused for a moment, a wicked smile spreading across his face. "It's always satisfying to come out on top, especially when it comes to money. The people of Earth are so naive and gullible. It makes them easy targets for people like me who are willing to take risks to obtain what we want."
Shred leaned back in his seat, thinking for a moment. "But I'm not done yet," he continued. "I plan to keep monitoring the bounty boards for any new contracts that catch my eye. I'm always looking for my next big score, and I won't stop until I'm the richest and most powerful being in the galaxy."
He turned off the recording device and sat in silence for a moment, revelling in the feeling of power and control. "Nothing can stop me," he muttered to himself. "I am Shred, the greatest Cerealian Bounty Hunter the universe has ever known."
