"I see," Shoot said, sighing in relief. "You decided to go without us because we were unconscious. But you guys left without the diamond right? Why? You at least know where it is right? Where is it?" She continued. She was talking to B, Blade and Scythe, who had startled them earlier. They had gotten back panting and huffing and then they sat down to tell their story.They said after the whole incident at the pier,they had gone and blown Mikes house up. It was an interesting story. Apparently his house is really something. Well, was.
"Lot's of questions you have there." Scythe said sounding annoyed. "I overheard some of his minions talking about how important this gem seems to him. Blade still hasn't told me just whats so special about it though." she finished and everyone looked to Blade.
"Well, I guess he's superstitious." Blade answered.
"What? What does that have to do with anything?" B asked, confused.
"Let me finish! I didn't think this was really necessary information before, but there is a legend behind that specific gem. I don't know it that well, because I don't believe in that kinda stuff. Maybe he thinks that it will come true." Blade said.
"What is the legend?" B asked.
"I just said I don't know!" Blade yelled.
"Well that doesn't help us," Shoot said.
" Why does that even matter?!" Blade steamed.
"Well, he's keeping it with him, and that's new. He does have a room for his jewels. But this one he has with him personally." Scythe said. She pulled out a handful of cash and grinned."See, he left his treasure room unguarded." Blade stared at the cash in Scythes hand.
"That is weird." Blade agreed.
"AH! Blade when are you going to pay us!?" B asked. Blade threw her a hard look.
"When we get the diamond. " she replied. B's face twisted in agony.
"Nooo! I.... need...money!! How will I eat, Blade?!" she cried.
"Hopes Last Wish Diamond?" Tech asked wrinkling her nose.
"That's it! What do you know about it?" Blade shouted.
"Relax there is nothing I can't find on the internet." Tech replied. "It says that 'Mike Rodlars most recent addition to his collection is the legendary Hopes Last Wish diamond. Story says... the diamond was found by a poor, yet honest and kind miner, who cut and polished it to sell it. He had no family, no wife or children, and he never knew his mother of father, although it was his greatest hope and only wish to know his real parents. Now this particular jewel was especially beautiful, so he was able to sell it for quite a hefty price, however, after he had sold it, he fell very ill and was on his death bed. Around that time a beautiful woman came to him and told him that he was her long-lost son. She also told the man that she was a witch, and that he, too had the blood of a witch in him. She told him that, and then showed him the jewel she had stolen back from the rich man who bought it.
"Here," she told him, "Ask the spirits, through this diamond that you have worked hard to mine,cut, polish,and sell, to heal you. So the man, desperate because not because of his fear of dying, but because of his wish to know his parents, asked to spirits to heal his illness. Because the man had taken such great care of that diamond and was such an honest and kind man, he was healed. And he got to live with his mother, forever. Since he was a kind person he gave the diamond that helped him so to the person who had bought it originally, as to bring him good fortune as well. It is said that the man and his mother still live happily and in peace today, and that the diamond grants it's owners greatest hope and only wish. It was supposedly passed down through the family of the man who bought it.' " Tech read off. "Wow."
"Heh, that's so stupid. 'Grants it's owners greatest hope and only wish'? That's ridicules! Seriously, who would believe something that stupid? " Blade scoffed. She sighed and got up. "I told you it doesn't matter. We go back in three days." She said. "We'll go wherever we need to and steal that diamond!" She said.
"Rest up, guys." She looked around to each of the thief club members. "I have a feeling you'll need it."
