“Shut up!” Mike screamed at his comrades.

Everything fell apart. The cops surrounded them. The two options for escaped are now blocked, and one of his three man team has betrayed them. He knows it. But which one?

“Why did the cops arrive?” he asked. “We had seven minutes. How did they get here in three?”

“I don’t know man, but how do we leave?” the bigger of the men chimed in. This was not his first bank job. The cops could be heard over their speakers attempting to coerce the men out.

“Why don’t we just surrender?”

“What did you say?” Mike glared at the third man who asked the question. Surrender was not an option. The big man looked in his bag that had explosives remembering there are a basement near the tunnels.

Before he could speak up of the idea, the third man, who shook in his shoes, started to move to the door. “I'm giving up. You guys go and I will surrender. Maybe it will help you.”

Mike and the big man were confused. That's not normal. Mike decides right there to shoot him. “He is an informant.”

“Follow me.” Says the big man.
