Rain is the prevailing weather condition through automn in Piltover. Tones of water fall in the streets every day, making the roads actual rivers of dirty rain water full of mud. A thick fog covers everything and the eye cannot see a few feet away except of the faint light of the public lamp in the distance. Perfect conditions for someone to hide but this didn't apply to Vi that certain night.

Moving around in the cold rain, Vi gritted her teeth in order not to swear aloud and betray her current position. Her predator was not far away and if she wanted to escape, she had to keep her mouth shut. A sharp pain originating from her upper arm made her hiss and her hand immediately flew on the spot a bullet had lodged in. She looked over her shoulder to check weather she was still being followed or not but she couldn't make out a thing through the thick rain. Upon seeing this, she turned her look forward and quickened her pace.

If her arm hadn't been shot, she would definitely stop and fight whoever was after her and not just ran away. But since she had been shot probably by a rifle, it would be wiser if she would just run, reducing the danger of getting a bullet stack in her head. She was still trying to understand how the sniper had saw her through the fog and had specifically managed to hit her exactly at the point were she carried no armor; the point between her gauntlets and her metallic epaulet. They must be very good snipers, that was for sure. Vi speculated who could be after her and that meant only trouble.

She took a sudden turn into a narrow, dark alley between two huge building where the rain was less intense there, hoping that her hunter would loose her track but it seemed fate had other plans for her. As soon as she stepped in the alley, she felt a sharp pain shooting up her leg and she couldn't help but exclaim loudly in pain. She looked down and saw a metallic trap, which looked more like a hunting trap, grapped around her feet. Perfect.

In a desperate try to escape, she tried to run but with her leg injured, that was clearly impossible. She tripped over and fell on the callous, wet ground, groaning in annoyance. She managed to push her body up and rest her back on the wall. There was nothing she could do but wait for her predator arrive at the point.

So that was it. In a few moments she would be either dead or thrown in prison. Either way, her career as a brawler was over here. Maybe if she was lucky enough and would indeed be sent in prison, she could still have the satisfaction of punching others. She sighed, feeling more sorrow than ever with her optimism.

The clicking of heels made her look towards the entrance of the alley. What she saw was forever carved into her long-term memory. In the distance stood a woman dressed in a short, purple dress, very inappropriate for this kind of weather and a hat of the same color, covering her eyes. A rifle was hanging over her shoulder which Vi eyed carefully; it wasn't like any weapon she had seen before, it was more of a hexetech weapon. Of course, she had heard of it and its owner. Before her stood no other than the sheriff of Piltover, Caitlyn. She had no chance of escaping from the beginning as whoever got into the sherrif's scope didn't escape prison.

Caitlyn walked towards her in confidence, her leather boots creating the only noise in the alley. She stopped a few feet away from Vi, eyeing her carefully. The brawler could make out a bright shade of blue under the shadow of the hat.

"You are a stubborn one, aren't you?" she spoke and her uptown accent echoed through the alley "Got shot, run several miles in the rain... And even with an injured leg, you kept trying to run"

Vi's response was just a plain growl. Caitlyn let out a sigh and reached in her pocket from where she withdrew a small glass with a dark green liquid in it. She kneeled down next to Vi without a hint of hesitation and carefully examined Vi's injury.

"Hmm, the bullet isn't very deep in" she hummed, mostly to herself "I think I can get rid of it provided you can remain patient"

"Oh yeah?" Vi threw her head back to remove a couple of hair off her face "Bring it on. I ain't scared of a little pain"

Without another warning, Caitlyn pulled the bullet out, sending another wave of pain through Vi's body. The pinkette hissed but didn't say anything else. The pain was soon gone as she felt the green liquid slipping on her skin. She looked at her wounded arm and was surprised to see that there was no injury there anymore.

Without giving her another look, Caitlyn stood up and moved on her other side. With strength Vi didn't know she possessed, she removed the trap off her foot and threw it away then she proceeded on pouring some of that liquid on her wound, healing in immediately. Caitlyn withdrew the small, glass bottle back on her pocket and then stood up, standing exactly opposite Vi with her back laying on the opposite wall.

"So, now that your injuries are healed" she spoke "We can have a civilized talk"

"What makes you believe I will sit here, listening to your bullshit?" Vi raised a brow at her

An imperceptible smile appeared on the brunette's lips but was gone as soon as it came.

"Because I know for a fact that you're still confused about why I hunted you down in the first place then helped you out with your injuries. That's not what cops usually do, don't they?"

"Not really" Vi admitted. This woman was reading her like an open book. No wonder why she was the Sherrif.

"Let me introduce myself even though you already know who I am but formalities are formalities. I'm Caitlyn, the..."

"... Sherrif of Piltover bluh bluh bluh" Vi interrupted "I know who you are, I mean who doesn't? So, don't waste your precious saliva, sweetheart"

"Very well then" Caitlyn nodded, pulling a strand of wet hair behind her ear "I've been watching you for a while now. You are an... Interesting example of brawler in the Wardens. I've never met anyone that specifically beated and stole only from criminals and created chaos among their gangs. Your unique attitude caught my eye immediately"

"Apparently" Vi murmured under her breath

"I also know" Caitlyn continued "after tones of research that you were in a mine accident years ago at the outskirts of the city. Rumors say you helped the miners abandon the collapsing mine with the cost of leaving your gang behind"

"This isn't a rumor" Vi responded "Thats the truth"

Caitlyn raised a brow "I see my sources remain reliable"

"Obviously because I see you're well informed, sherrif" Vi said, emphasizing the last word.

"A predator" the brunette responded "needs to know everything about its pray before it goes out for hunting. Thought, I wouldn't quite call you my pray tonight"

Vi raised a brow, challenging the other woman to explain herself at her. Caitlyn got the hint and moved on.

"The reason why I abandoned my warm tea tonight is because I would like to make you an offer" Caitlyn explained, finally removing that hat from her head, revealing her full face. Damn, she was actually very... Beautiful? Yes, that was probably the word that could best describe her. Her bright blue eyes glowed under the weak light that was coming outside the alley. Her perfect pale skin along with her delicate characteristics were an overall good combination.

"I see you got a good heart" Caitlyn continued, her voice softening a little bit "You want to help create a better world and let's not forget you know the dark side of this city very well. I estimate you would be a very good asset in my force"

"What are you saying?" Vi interrupted, raising both hands in the height of her chest "That you want me to become an officer and work for you?"

"Let me be more specific. I want you to become my partner and work with me"

Vi looked buffled at the woman, not believing in her ears. Having a stable job and thus a stable house and food was just the perfect aspect. A new chance in rebuilding her life from the beginning was just offered by this woman that appeared suddenly and she was just going to refuse? Hell no. There was something that was still bragging her however, something that really didn't let her accept straight away.

"Why would anyone want to work with someone like me?" Vi questioned a little bit hesitantly "I used to be a criminal and now I'm a lonely brawler, stealing from other criminals to make a living. I don't follow anyone order's and most of all, I don't even have the basic training to be police officer"

"You don't need any more training. Life made sure of that, I can tell" Caitlyn pointed and Vi found her right "You have a lof of potential to show. If anything, if you have a purpose, you'll do anything to achieve it, if I'm not mistaken"

"You got it right there, sherrif" Vi said, slowly getting on her feet again "I'll work with you in one condition"

"And what this might be?" Caitlyn raised a brow

"I work with you only and take orders from you only"

"Deal"

Vi pressed a couple of buttons on her left gauntlet, which hissed softly as a little steam escaped in the atmosphere. A burnt, bandaged hand was offered to the sherrif which she took into her gloved hand. A lightning strike, illuminating the alley, as if confirming their deal.

After shaking hands, it was time for both to depart back to their HQ. Caitlyn returned her hat back on her head while Vi put her hand exactly where she needed it to be. As both stared walking towards different ways, the sherrif stopped on her tracks and turned to look at Vi.

"I didn't get your name" she called. The pinkette stopped too and turned her whole body at the other woman's direction.

"The name's Vi" she replied, pointing at her tattoed cheek.

"I thought it was the Latin number six"

"Maybe it is, maybe not" Vi shrugged her shoulders "Doesn't matter"

"I'll see you soon, Vi

"Soon, boss

And they were both dissapeared into darkness.

Hello dear readers! Did you miss me? Yeah, I know you didn't.

So, this officially the very first chapter of my new fanfiction which also happens to be the very first League of Legends related fanfic I've ever written. I wanted desperately to start this during summer but unfortunately I didn't manage to as other fanfictions caught up with me and needed to be finished. With school starting shortly, I'm afraid I won't be able to update much as this is my first year at High School and its definitely going to be a tough year. I'm going to try have a new chapter every other weekend but nothing is sure as of yet. Second chapter is almost ready too, just needs a little bit more edit and I'll post it tomorrow.

I'd also like to thank you in advance for reading my work because it means a lot to me. I'm not the best author out there and please don't forget that English isn't my native language so it is inevitable I'll have some grammar/spelling mistakes which I always try to eliminate by re-reading and editing each chapter carefully. So enough with my none-stop talking, I'll let you proceed with your lives.
