[ WP ] Write a story from the perspective of a guard in a stealth game .

`` Got to remember my training. Patrol in a set pattern. Never deviate. Eyes forward, do n't check behind me. Never, EVER look up.'' 
 
 `` Oh hey, Bob just got an arrow in his head. Time to run around like a chicken with my head cut off until we find who did it.'' 
 
 `` Wait a second, It has been 30 seconds. What was I doing? Oh right, I'm a guard. remember my training. Return to patrol. Follow it exactly. Hey there is Bob's dead body. Instructions said nothing about that, just keep going.'' 
 
 `` Follow the patrol and... OOOH, SHINY!'' 
 
 `` Someone dropped a coin over here. Neat. Wait a second, what was I doing? Oh yeah, patrol. Oh hello dead Bob. Door to the treasury is open. No instructions about that. Just keep going.'' 
 
 One hour later... 
 
 `` So Doug, care to tell me how a thief got into the treasury?'' 
 
 `` No idea, sir. I followed the patrol instructions to the letter. Nothing more, nothing less.'' 
 
 *sigh* `` Yes, you do take things quite literally I see. Do you know what happened to Bob?'' 
 
 `` Got an arrow to the head. I chased after whoever did it, but there was eventually no one there, so I returned to my patrol.'' 
 
 `` You did not think to say something?'' 
 
 `` There are no instructions for that.'' 
 
 *sigh* 
 
 `` SQUIRREL!'' 
 
 `` Wait, what? Where are you... Damn it, Fred get in here.'' 
 
 `` Yes boss?'' 
 
 `` What have we been feeding the guards?'' 
 
 `` Oh we got these new magic food pellets. They really sharpen the senses.'' 
 
 `` Perhaps to the point of distraction?'' 
 
 `` That was a listed side effect, but what harm could that cause?'' 
 
 *big sigh* 
 
 `` Aw, the squirrel ran off. What were we talking about again, sir? Oh hi Fred, when did you get here?'' 
 
 *groan*
