Denda watched the small Den Den Mushi sprang to life in his hand and the words “Viva La Revolution!” echoed from it. The vault door made a loud clunk and, as it began to swing open, he pulled a length of wire from it’s spool while rushing in. The lone guard had little time to react as Denda pounced on him, slamming his tail hard into the guards face. With the guard dazed momentarily Denda quickly wrapped him up in the steel wire and gagged him with a rag.
With the immediate threat taken care of Denda turned to look at the vault. He grinned as he surveyed the piles of gold and jewels. This was his biggest score yet. As he started filling his bags with loot. his ears picked up a soft moaning coming from behind one of the piles. He looked and there was an opening in the wall there. As he passed through it he had to stifle a gasp. There were people chained up here in this dirty hole, he counted a good 20 people. Denda couldn’t just leave them here so he approached the closest to him carefully.
The closest one looked like he was sleeping, or at least trying to, and he started to stir as Denda started picking the locks that held him. Noticing the movement, Denda stopped what he was doing and showed himself to the man and put his finger to his lips. “I’m not sure why you’re locked up and hidden down here but if you want to get out stay quiet while I get these locks undone and then start filling these bags with loot.” He whispered and tossed some empty bags at the man. He had most of the prisoners unshackled when he heard shouting from the treasure room.
“How did you get out of those chains!?”
‘Crap it sounds like some more guards showed up.’ Denda thought to himself. He quickly unlocked the last two prisoners before sneaking off to the treasure room. There were three guards holding the captives back by pointing guns at them. Denda had to act quickly. He readied his wire launcher and crept through the shadows until he was parallel with the guards. From there he launched a wire where the anchor sank into the opposite wall. Then he ran behind the guards, pulling the wire with him, sending them tumbling forward. “Hold them down quick!.” Three prisoners grabbed the guns while the others helped restrain the guards.
Once the guards were bound and gagged Denda got the attention of the prisoners. “Good work gang. I am Denda, master thief and your liberator today. As thanks you can help carry out this rotten king’s loot. So start packing.” He gave every prisoner a bag that didn’t already have one. “An associate of mine will be along shortly and once she’s here we’ll make our escape. So until then pack as much gold and jewels as you can into these bags.” With his little speech done he turned to watch the hallway. ‘I just hope she gets here soon or we’ll have to leave her.’
He didn’t have to wait long though as a few moments later he saw Ruby come around the corner and sprint towards him. Looking over his shoulder he called back to the prisoners. “I hope you’re ready because it looks like we might have leave in a hurry!” He then ran out to meet Ruby before she got to the vault. “Two things Red. One, The king was keeping prisoners in that vault so I freed them and got their help. Two, how much time do we have until the whole castle comes down on us?”
