Action 10You duck down behind some nearby cars, and strain to listen to the voices.
"
...believe it, you know.You sure it's over here somewhere?Yeah, I noticed it this morning.Okay, so, let's assume someone cut a hole in the fence and got in... which is pretty stupid mind you, and I don't see how the dogs didn't notice, but assuming they did, how the hell did they steal a god damn water tank and smuggle it through the hole?No, no, it's a pretty well done..."
The voices soon move out of range further down the yard. You hear them stop a ways away, too far out to make out what they are saying - but close enough that they will hear you if you make too much noise.
You gaze longingly at the microwave, but realize that even if you had a backpack big enough to carry it in, you'd be hard pressed to carry it all the way back home. You wield your screwdriver, and disassemble it as silently and quickly as you can.
