Town

Offbeat vignette of local heist lore and blood-diamond worry in 'the town' exemplifying Western-world enquiry (or expression!)

A cool heist-fable inspired very loosely by the awesome American 'society' film The Town (Ben Affleck), which I think you'll like,

BEN: Had you heard of this guy Shadow of Boston before, bud, on social-media/anywhere?
TIM: All's I know is this 'dude' liked to post Selfies on social-media claiming he was a Robin Hood for blood-diamond chess, ha.

BEN: I wonder what he was really after?
TIM: Dunno, but this sort of chat about a modern-day 'Jesse James' from the eccentric side of the tracks is all comic book(?).

BEN: Makes for fun Selfie-IQ, though, no?

BEN: According to the town, Shadow walked into a bank with safe-boxes with Baron Ion's blood-diamonds and took $20M.

TIM: Yeah, I know; the gems were 'insured' items from Sierra Leone swapped with glass-beads and fakes by Shadow, ha.

BEN: This guy was a real 'chess-pro' when it came to stalemating the Ion(s).

TIM: Dunno, but it seems to be this 'dude' was some Algerian-American emigrant but United States citizen with a grudge!

BEN: Maybe he'd have a 'history' somehow with the bad Baron, Tim, huh?
TIM: Dunno, but what we know (now) is the bank-personnel wanted to keep all the Ion-chat out in the fray and evaded chess.

BEN: Still...excellent Bostonian Halloween lore for Selfie-buddy chat(s) about gem-piracy woes in Boston and Robin Hood.

TIM: Selfies are great Halloween gibberish, Ben pal (for any 'good' Bostonian), right?

Shadow of Boston used a toy water-rifle which he claimed was a sample of his toy-store enterprise for which he sought a merchant's new account with the insured bank in the town. He was escorted by a lone guardsman who was told the gun-toy was an acid-gun which was then used to burn into the Ion-box and African gems swapped with toys. The guardsman was left in the safe-box area with the gun itself and Shadow told him to stay there and wait for Interpol-relations personnel who'd arrive to 'clear' the entire insurance-oriented report/IQ and 'chess' mess for the media...and for the guardsman himself, and everyone was (secretly) in goosebumps-mode thinking Ion was a blood-diamond evildoer with ties to Sierra Leone and possibly British Columbia and Northern Ireland (wow).

TIM: That bank shadow in which Shadow of Boston 'cooled' his 'Interpol-media' deed was a fine institution, Bostonian-great.

BEN: Indeed...and it's why the Ion(s) of the world would seek insurance smuggled diamonds for corruption of US-stores, eh?

TIM: Yeah...we just might (ironically) need a 'chess-bandit' like Shadow of Boston to 'cool' our heels about gem-fear(s)!

Shadow was ironically secretly in love with a local waitress in the town and grabbed her after the heist and commission activity (Zurich) and the rumor is flew her to New Zealand where he opened a cyber-art enterprise for youngsters and homeschool-students learning about capitalism enterprise in the Western continents called Princeton (wow)!

SHADOW: We'll 'catch' a Sox-Phillies game before our flight to New Zealand, darling.

GIRLFRIEND: Cool.

When they got to New Zealand, Shadow (real-name possibly 'Amlan Satan') married his waitress-gal from the American town and had a son (Damian) for whom he purchased a 'cool' baseball-figurine chess-set/board which he'd use to teach his curious and darling baby-boy about the diagonals/asymmetries about the wonder(s) of stalemate-chess conditions and what it revealed about the 'coolness' of political capitalism parallel IQ for stabilization of the world-governance consciousness regarding motion(s) in intelligence/treasure(s).

DAMIAN: Treasure universe!

AMLAN: Treasure...academy, son.

TIM: I hear the Boston police hoped they'd make some kind of 'story' out of this entire (ironic) blood-diamond insurance IQ.

BEN: Sure...there ain't nothing wrong (in the town) with a little human-friendly lore concerning gems, stores, and privacy!

SHADOW: I miss Boston and the town sometimes, Damian.

DAMIAN: Did you ever take mom to that famous Boston Park, daddy?
SHADOW: Of course...what do you think I am, son?

WIFE: Here's a New Zealand style turkey-sausage quiche I'm sure my two great men (Damian/Shadow) will think 'divine' IQ.

AMLAN: Yeah!

THE POST: The real/great irony of all this was/is that 'Shadow' offered blood-diamond lore a special 'chess' emoji.
