Okay, let's get one thing straight. Matt had been planning this job for months. Well, calling it a job was a bit of a misnomer. He wasn't getting paid to break into a cutting-edge biogenetics research facility. Plat Genetics was a bit of a personal project for him, one that he'd been circling for a while. The other jobs he'd take had been just that - jobs to keep him on his game and limber. This time, he wasn't breaking in to steal some random valuables or to plant some incriminating evidence. What he need was data, buried under years and years of cover-ups and cooperate espionage. Data he hadn't been able to get by just trying to hack through firewalls from an outside computer.
Anyway. Had he rearranged a few other affairs to make sure he could do this job tonight? Maybe. But this was no spur of the moment breaking-and-entering, okay? This was planned.
He frowned under his mask, black-tipped ears flicking back slightly at the sight of a familiar platypus logo on a company computer. The blue of the screen illuminated the skin-tight black suit he was sporting, the light sort of negative any benefits he'd gotten from the suit sneaking in, but the security cameras were playing on loop for the next ten minutes and the motion sensors had been angled away from the desk, so he wasn't worried about it.
Gloved hands sped over the keyboard, his thumb drive running a pre-programmed virus to search out the information he was looking for on one side of the screen. Dates flashed by, familiar names long forgotten, information rushing past his eyes that he filed and stored away for later. He knew he wouldn't be able to go over all of this data right now, he was down to about 6 minutes left before the videos started back up, but he still wanted, need to see-
Alarm bells burst out in his head, ears flicking backwards moments before what felt like a warm, wet, slimy rag dragged up from some of the only skin that wasn't covered by his suit into his fucking hair.
Matt's shuddered, his hands stalling on the keyboard as he felt his shoulders creeping up to his ears. Fuck. He was supposed to be wounded. Without missing a beat, Matt spun around to face his assailant, his wrist flicking as he turned to make his thumb drive disappear to someplace safe. His fucking program wouldn't be able to run anymore, but he knew this asshole and if experience had taught him anything, he'd better grab what goods he could before he did something to royally fuck up his plans further.
"What the fuck are you doing here." It was barely even a whisper, hissed through clenched teeth, but Matt knew he'd be able to hear him. The computer barely illuminated half of him, casting dark fur into darker shadows where it didn't. What had once looked like an intimidating murderbeast now, in Matt's eyes, resembled little more than that fucking chihuahua who kept shitting in the middle of a sidewalk. Fucking up all those other jobs had been one thing. Matt could laugh it off, he didn't actually need the money and practicing evading something actually good at chasing him was good practice. But this time? He was royally pissed off. Ears flat, teeth bared, it took all his self control to prevent himself from outright growling. This job was too important to be fucked up by a shitty real cryptid who, for some ungodly reason, decided to start stalking him.
Especially when he was supposed to be wounded.
