"Sarge we've got to move"
"Be advised, RPG incoming!!"
***EXPLOSIONS!***
"SARGE! SARGE!!"
"Give this to my Son. Tell him daddy loves him so much."
"You Will Tell Him That Yourself! Stay with me SARGE"
Damn! I was daydreaming again. The day I lost my best friend keeps playing in my head over and over again. I served my country for ten good years. Lost so many good men and my right leg in SERVICE. What do I get in return. Nothing!!
I headed out to CRAIG'S Bar. This has become the meeting place of my crew back in the army since we retired.
I stepped into the bar to see that Charles, Victor And Roland Were Already sitting at our favorite spot. We exchanged greetings and I called on the bartender.
"Get Me whatever they are having"
Charles was our muscle, The one who loved the big weapons. We usually tease him that he stole all our muscles and added to his. We called him MUNCHO MACHO.
Victor was the quiet one, more of a geek and our computer wizard. We called him WIZZY.
Roland was the crazy one. They say that all those bloodshed he saw drove him mad. He was up for any risk, never really cared if he died. We called him LOCO.
In no time Randy And Sonia joined us in the table. This was my complete Squad unit back in the army except for 3 whom we lost in war.
Randy Was The Brain, he thought about every situation critically. He always boasted that his brains kept him alive throughout the wars. We called him BRANIAC
Sonia was a fierce and fearless diva. She was beautiful and could seduce any man, but then don't let her beauty deceive you to think she is a lady because she is definitely not. She was super fast, she claimed she once ran more than a speeding car. We called her SONIC.
We sat there chit chatting about nothing in particular. We had nothing else to do, living on a pension that was barely able to put food on our table.
"This isn't how Ex soldiers should be living I tell you"
Charles remarked
"Yeah we should be living like kings"
Sonia agreed
"I have a plan that could change our life for good"
Roland Said Laughing
"What plan Is that?"
I asked
"How about we rob a bank"
"That is outrageous"
Randy shouted
"Keep your voice down man! Come to think of it, it's our money in those banks"
Victor added
"I have been thinking of this a long time now. I have it all planned out. With our ID we can easily get access to clean weapons."
We contemplated on this for hours, had a vote and it was decided. We were going to rob a bank in the next street.
