The Bank Heist

Billy and Danny were new at the game…

“Whew Billy, we got away with that one good!”

The car tires screeched as they took the turn at ninety-five kph. If Billy weighed even one kilogram more, the car would have flipped.

“I don’t know Danny, we ain’t exactly away yet…”

Police sirens wailed in the background as they turned onto the highway.

“Nawh, we’re good as gold. They’ll give up on us. They’ve got bigger fish to fry than just two little ‘ole bank robbers like us!”

“Yah think Danny? I’m getting awfully nervous…” Billy gripped the steering wheel tight.

“Yeah, they ain’t got nothin on us!”

This prompt A Drabble a Day 2: The Drabbling is by Grim Flandango in The Fiction Writer’s Den. The word today is KILOGRAM.

And I wrapped in the prompt from JF Danskin A Different Side of Fiction (Idea 3) as well. (We love an unreliable narrator! Craft a fiction piece of any length where the truth is very different from what the narrator is trying to say. Is it obviously so? Well, that’s up to you…)

This 60th drabble is written as part of the “100 Story Challenge” by Zane Dickens the Instigator.
