Clara/Edward

Cop and Crook

She was at it again, and he was on her tail almost instantly. He had caught her once before, despite the fact that it'd been almost four years ago, he could do it again.

She was like a cat, hoping over buildings and moving like a simple shadow through the streets. He barreled after her, managing to match her pace.

She glanced over her shoudler at him, and let a smile tug on her lips. He smirked, as she ducted int an alley. On instinct, he clapped his hands together, and slammed them on the ground. He quickly followed her, finding her trapped by the large wall he'd just transmuted.

"Well, well, Psiren, what are you going to do now?" he asked tauntingly.

"If it isn't Mr. Grown-Up man." she said, pulling out her deck of cards. "There's no chance you'll just let me go?" she asked with a pout.

He snorted. "No way."

She flexed out her cards as they clicked together to create a large sword. Psiren then rushed Edward. On reflex, he clapped his hands together and blocked her strike. "Same old bag of tricks Psiren?" he asked, causing her to frown.

He swept out her feet, causing her to fall back. He smirked down at her. "Game over"

"Not quite pipsqueak," she said.

He was suddenly hit in head with her shoe, causing him to stumble back. "That was low!" he snapped, before realizing she was already gone.

He growled, before a small glint caught his eye. Bending down, he examined it. It was a small diamond, one of three Psiren had tried to steal. Grinning, he picked it up.

Knowing Psiren, she'd come back for it.

Edward knew her too well.

Psiren landed in front of him and smiled coyly. "You have something for me, don't you?"

The blonde smiled. "That I do."

"Now be a good boy and give it to-"

She was cut off as Eward swept out her feet and pinned her to the ground. He smiled down pervertedly atop her. "I'm not a child anymore." he said, before firmly kissing her. She tensed in surprise, before easing into him. He kissed her roughly, his tongue flicking her lips, asking for entry.

Instead of allowing him to proceed, she broke the kiss. "I told you this was more fun with a man and a woman," she said. "But you've turned into such a single minded pervert."

She showed him the diamond he had taken from her. With a smile, she wiggled out from under him, and jumped off int the night. Edward smirked, before he blinked in realization. "She swinded me!" he paused. "Again!" Edward shook his head at himself, before following her down the street.

Once again, he found himself saying; "Let the games begin."
