H.E.I.S.T.
Right Under Their Noses
An Acrostic Attempt At The Micro-Heist Challenge
"Heist, Sabastian Heist," as the sergeant finished speaking, the room burst into laughter. "Okay, okay, I know it sounds like a joke, but Heist is wanted for several international jobs. He is well known for making his move, as larger events are underway. Next week, Houston is hosting one of the largest galas in Texan history. Coincidently, the Houston Museum of Art, is hosting its traveling Van Gogh display. Rumor has it, Heist is in town."
"Evan's, I want you to gather a group of your best, to go under cover, masquerading as interested buyers. If Heist plans on hitting, we'll be ready." Evans smiled.
"I 'll get it done," he boasted, confidently.
Sergeant Hughs asked, " any other questions? We've 7 days to get prepared. We won't be the next target," he bellowed.
The group Evan's gathered were independent "guns." What the sergeant couldn't know, was that Evan's was Heist, all along, he had unwittingly, just opened the door, making a clear path for the world's largest art heist ever! As Evan and his crew loaded the last of Van Goghs priceless work, into the unmarked police van, he radioed in...."Thanks sergeant."
