“Keep your mind on the mission„ (Criminal AU) || Lyra & Red
It was late afternoon, very late afternoon when the two shady figures approached the lengthy marble staircase on the outskirts of the city, gingerly assuring there was no one around as they planned their mischiefs. It has been a while since the couple cooperated with Team Rocket, two excellent grunts to be straight honest, and possibly going for becoming admins: they always did what they asked for, not a single mistake was committed since they were associated with the villainous gang.
“So, we enter the shop, a quick challenge and everyone should be beaten” she quickly explained as she addressed to her fellow, a brief smile tugged her rosy lips as she expected the mission to be quite amusing. As a matter of fact, they usually didn’t accomplish difficult missions –or maybe it were the two of them that were way too strong to consider the situations they faced easy. Regardless, they were doubtless tremendous duo, no one has got the chance to defeat them already: Lyra was an excellent supporter, while Red was a tenacious tank, a perfect match and a rather unmanageable team to outplay.
“I will take care of the rest, so just concentrate on the target.” she lastly spoke, her slender silhouette already climbing up the long marble stair in front of them, the dim lights of the city feebly letting recognize where the shop where they were heading was; it was late afternoon after all, even the rose-coloured sky of the setting was no help at all for the view. It actually was a somewhat romantic scenery to be surrounded by, yet the brunette sadly had no time for those kind of considerations, as she had a mission to accomplish with his colleague –who has seemingly stopped at the beginning of the staircase, as she suddenly noticed his absence behind her figure.
“This isn’t the time to slack, come on!” she almost yelled, though immediately realizing she shouldn’t scream, as it will draw unwanted attentions. “—Just hurry up, we have no time to waste!”
