Stealing the Formula
By Vinh Nguyen
“Alright people, tomorrow is the total eclipse. So, while everyone is outside staring at the sun, I say, we go steal the Coca-Cola secret formula, replicate the formula, add it to our own soda. Then, people will buy our soda more and make Coca-Cola go out of business!”
Jimmy laughs, “I am so smart.”
“But boss,” Jim interjected, “It’s the total solar eclipse! We won’t see it again for another two hundred years! Plus, I would like to spend time with my family,”
“Yeah, why can’t we just wait ‘til Christmas or something when everyone is on break? As much is I find Jim annoying, I have to side with him on this,” Jimbob added.
“C’mon Jimmy, you gotta stop trying to steal the formula for once. It’s not like you’re Plankton from SpongeBob. Besides, all your “great plans” have all ended badly.” Jym persuaded.
“Fine, I’ll steal the formula myself. And, you’re ALL FIRED!”
Jim, JimBob and Jym stood aghast.
“YOU CAN’T DO THAT!” yelled the three in unison.
“Sure, I can. After all, I am your boss,” replied Jimmy as he walked away.
The Next Day…
Jimmy flew to Atlanta and stayed at a hotel near the SunTrust bank where the Coca-Cola vault was held and waited for the eclipse. Jim didn’t particularly like the hotel, as it had posters everywhere saying, “EXPERIENCE THIS ONCE IN A LIFTIME DARKNESS FOR TWO MINUTES AS THE MOON COVERS THE SUN!”
“The colors don’t even match what a real eclipse looks like…” grumbled Jimmy.
The Following Day…
Jimmy woke up early in the morning and had a nice, cheap continental breakfast and prepared for the heist.
“Black ski mask… check. Black clothing… check. Strip bombs… check.” Jimmy mumbled as he was going down the list of supplies that he would need. KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
“ROOM SERVICE” yelled the room cleaner,
”COME BACK IN A BIT” replied Jimmy
Back in Louisiana...
“I can’t believed that Jimmy fired us…” said Jim sadly,
“It’s believe, Jim, not ‘believed,’ corrected Jimbob
“You stupid idiot,” said Jimbob under his breath.
“What did you say at the end, Jimbob? I couldn’t catch what you said,” said Jim.
“I didn’t say a thing.” Lied Jimbob,
“Ladies, ladies calm down,” said Jym, who is the reason the company they used to work for stayed together, “We were fired for not helping Jimmy steal the Coca-Cola formula, so I say, we go give SunTrust Bank a call to flood a section of pipe that Jimmy is crawling through severe radiation and neurotoxins.” proposed Jym
“All in favor, say aye,”
Jim, Jimbob, and Jym, said in unison “Aye.”
Behind the SunTrust Bank…
“All right, the plan is to crawl through the air vents leading into Coca-Oh… I fired everyone… I forgot,” Jimmy sighed in regret because he was starting to miss the others
”I wonder what they are up to right now…” wondered Jimmy
“Oh well, let’s get this over with.” Said Jimmy as he unscrewed the air vent grate.
The sky was beginning to darken as the eclipse was starting to happen.
“I gotta hurry before the eclipse is over,” thought Jimmy “Or everyone will be back indoors” Jimmy crawled through the air vents as quick as he could, being sure to take the right turns.
“I’m getting close! I can feel it!”
Little did Jimmy know that the bank was prepared for his heist. They closed off the section of air vent he was in and started releasing severe radiation and deadly neurotoxins. The “feeling” that he got was his DNA disintegrating due to radiation and his nerves being destroyed by the neurotoxin. Suddenly, the grate below him fell, and Jimmy fell into a room painted red with red carpeting that had a huge circle with the words ‘Coca-Cola’
“YES! I BROKE INTO THE VAULT!” yelled Jimmy as his skin fell off from the radiation. All of a sudden, Jimmy collapsed.
“Uuuugggghhhh… I don’t feel too great…” groaned Jimmy as more and more of his skin fell off. Jimmy died a slow and agonizing death from the radiation and the neurotoxin.
Jimmy laughs, “I am so smart.”
