attention span of a flea, activate!
A cold breeze whipped through the air, blowing flurries of snowflakes in every direction. Wisteria rubbed her hands together, then put them to her lips, blowing warm air into them. She was standing ontop of a residential building in the Diamond District, adjusting the straps of a backpack on her shoulders before kneeling down and putting her hand to the snow covered rooftop. Vines began to grow from where her fingertips met the concrete and crawled down the side of the building, surrounding the frozen edges of windows.
Her black and green suit was slick with melted snow, helping her blend in with the building as she crawled down the side, peeking inside of each window until she found the one she was looking for. A small tree branch grew from the vines, giving her a place to hang up her backpack, and unzip it with ease.
Wisteria pulled out a small handheld drill, and using the foliage on the building, made her way to each of the four corners of the massive window. She drilled small holes in each one, then used a thicker vine as rope to let herself down to the center of the window. Wisteria drilled another hole in the center, then grabbed her backpack before centering her feet on the window. She pushed off the window with her feet before swinging back into it feet first, the glass shattering underneath her weight. She landed on the marble tile of the apartment silently as glass shards fell at her feet.
Wisteria had been casing this place for weeks, so she'd already known the tenant wasn't going to be home. "It just had to rain tonight." She grumbled before walking towards a glass cabinet in the back, already knowing it was bulletproof. Well, I guess he really is prepared for anything, she thought to herself. She raised her hand up to the finger print scanner, watching as small bumps formed on the underside of her hand, creating a copy of the tenant's fingerprints. "Bingo boingo bongo." Wisteria quoted a CSU from one of her favorite TV shows that she'd seen in Arkham, then regretted it as fast as she'd said it.
As she moved some things around in the cabinet, she prayed that there wasn't some secret alarm system she'd set off, as there usually was with high security jobs like this one. She pressed a small button on the inside of the cabinet that was underneath a tribal mask, and a small drawer opened up. Inside it was a variety of tech, including a USB drive, a laptop, and a prototype phone. She grabbed the laptop and the phone, but when she lifted the drive, a high pitched squealing started to go off around the house. It was high enough that it was barely registering in her ears, but it was annoying as hell. "Shit, no!" She punched the glass in frustration before zipping up her backpack, hoping she could get out of there before anyone showed up.
