The
white windowless van sat at the corner of Union Street and King Street with the
summer heat beating down on it. The casing of metal made the temperature rise
inside the van and Newcastle, Australia was showing no signs of clouds to
lighten their misery.
A
bead of sweat ran down the cheek of the man sitting in the driver's seat of the
van as he looked diligently out the front window. The man took a long and slow
drag off the cigarette sitting in his fingers and the smoke swirled around his
face. The blue eyes were unwavering in their task and the blond hair on his
head was a tousled mess, much like the surfer boys out on the beaches all
summer.
“Come on
Marty, just crack the window.” said a voice from the back seat, not getting the
blond man to look back at him.
“Shut up,
Terry. You will have your chance to be on the street soon.” said Marty, taking
another drag from the cigarette. “You boys know the deal on this one just like
the rest.”
“No problem.
Just give us the word.” said the man sitting in the passenger seat with gritted
teeth and a toothpick between them.
“Tommy, you
ready for this?” asked Marty
“No problem,
boss. Just give me the word.” he said, pulling the slide on his .45
caliber Smith and Wesson handgun before placing it in his belt.
“He's a killer
if you ask me, Marty.“ said Charlie with a wide grin covering his face.
“Ok, boys.
Let’s gear up.” said Marty, pulling himself out of the front seat and moving to
the back of the van changing into his outfit like the rest.
The
men wore a coordinated outfit of black shoes, black pants, white shirt, black
tie, and black jacket. Pulling the rifles off the wall of the van, the AK-47
was the weapon of choice. The older models were the ones that they could get
their hands on due to the strict gun laws in Australia, but the Soviet era
assault rifles were more than enough for the job they had at hand.
Sliding
on the plastic masks that covered the whole head, the members of the team took
on the resemblances of the musical group the Beatles.
Marty
placed his hand on the door and started his countdown with the face of John
looking back at the others. “In three, two, one, GO!”
The
strong hand gripped down hard on the lever and pulled the door to the side
exposing the four men as they took to the street. Marty followed the others to
the corner leaving the side of the van open and waiting.
Getting
to the corner Terry pulled the door to the Midtown National Bank open and let
the others funnel in as fast as possible before closing the door behind them
and standing guard.
“Get the fuck
down!” screamed Marty as he fired the AK47 into the air dropping down all the
people into the room as well as a shower of plaster from the ceiling.
The
butt end of Tommy’s AK47 found its mark striking down on the back of the head
of the guard that was standing beside the door just as he had each time they
had come into the bank previously to learn the positioning of all the players
that worked here each day.
“Ninety
seconds, boys!” yelled out Terry, looking at an oversized watch on his wrist.
