Hi, I'm Shego Petrov, also known as 'Gold Runner'. I'm a bandit meaning I'm from Trap City. I grew up here with my siblings Inko and Tayo. I left the supervision of my eldest sibling Inko when I was sixteen. I wanted to start my group of bandits but I ended up not doing so. I occasionally steal with my friend Liam, one of the tace twins. He's been my friend for 4 years now. Even though I'm three years older than him we're like peanut butter and jelly.
I decided to go on an adventure through Trap City. I had just picked found Liam and Tayo's place. Although he and his sister Leah moved to RingTown nothing about them has changed. "Let's go, Liam, we're gonna go and have a bit of fun", I said waving my arm. "O-okay", he stuttered, following behind me. As we walked out the door I jumped as high as I could and landed on a building. Most people couldn't do so, but I and my siblings have always been more stealthy than most people.
"I still don't understand how you do that", Liam shouted from the ground. He hopped on a fruit stand, to a step, and then onto the building. "You're gonna get in a lot of training because there's still land to cover", I said running. The smell of the area around me brought back a memory, the smell of my childhood room. I was only 7, I was in my room with my siblings playing with a glass bottle when it shattered. My sister Inko reached out in front of us and an explosion seemed to come out of her hand.
We've tried to come up with how it happened but we still don't know. now there's a scar on my stomach where the explosion hit me. I woke up to Inko carrying me outside. That was the one and only time I had ever seen her cry. The explosion blew up the whole house and after so my parents were never found. I've got into a bunch of crazy experiences with Inko, some pleasant some unpleasant. Once we tried to rob a lawyer in RingTown and got caught and shot by the police.
Now I have a bullet hole on the left side of my torso. She has the same wound on her right. After venturing through Trap City we made it to the bridge. As we walked into RingTown people shouted at us and told us to go back to Trap City. "So what are we going to do"? "I'm angry, so we're going to beat up on some people". We decided to walk to the park. "What about them"? It was a guy and a girl walking down the path, they seemed to be dating. We walked up to them and I stood in between them.
"Isn't it a beautiful day huh, goodies"? "I guess", the girl said in an awkward voice. "Do you guys have any cash on you, us bandits don't do very well", Liam said. The couple looked at each other while Liam and I did the same. I pulled out my pocket knife and grabbed the girl, putting it up to her neck. Now when it comes to me robbing or committing a crime, I'm a pretty violent person. I snatched her necklace, bracelets, rings, and purse. "Thanks for your cooperation", I laughed before sticking the knife in her stomach and throwing her to the ground.
"Dana", her boyfriend shouted. Liam had forced him onto his knees with a knife and tied his hands together. I grabbed some of the stuff and handed the rest to Liam. "Let's go, Liam, I hear sirens". We ran and made our way to the middle of RingTown, the division. "Stop right there and toss the stolen items, you bandits are getting pretty bold"!
RingTown, a province where everyone is successful. Yet you can't say the same for the ones who live across the bridge, in Trap City. A place where every coin has a crime behind it. Two towns of opposites, how will they mix?
