With a riffle in hand she leaned over to the scope placing her white manicured finger on the trigger, she aimed it at her target, Bora. Without batting a eyelash she pulls the trigger watching the bullet cleanly pass through Bora's skull.

Best friends Lucy Heartfilia and Grey Fullbuster walked aimlessly through the village, Grey lost in thought as he per usually and Lucy with a scowl on her face "The old man is going to get what's coming to him one day!" Lucy denounced fiercely.
"What did he do this time?" he moaned.
"He fired Ms Spetto for stealing some of the left over meat loaf in the kitchen, it wasn't her fault she wouldn't have to do that if he paid her proper wages. She barely has enough to support her families." Lucy signed dragging her hands through her silky hair.
"Your old man has problems that's so messed up, anyway do you think I could sneak into your place today." Asked Grey as he slipped his hands behind his head.
"Feel free, but if you get caught it's your funeral." Laughed Lucy
"Just watch, I'll be so sneaky even you won't notice I'm there" He laughed as he started to make ninja moves. They both fell into a fit of giggles rolling around on the side walk grass, onlookers smiled contently at their antics.
"Well I better get going, father's going to throw a fit if he realises I left the house." frowned Lucy as she got up up offering Grey a hand. He took it without hesitation and helped brush the dirt off his best friend's pink dress.
"I'll see you tonight sis." Said Grey with a smile of sympathy
"Yeah see you tonight Grey" She replied with a soft smile giving him a side hug. She jogged to the back of her mansion not far from the village, and climbed through the dining room window.
/Time Skip 10:00 pm/ Grey's POV
Grey let him self in through the kitchen door with the key Lucy had given him when he first started sneaking into the mansion when he was 8, he peered around the corner to the dining hall looking for a presence. After examining the immediate area and concluding it was safe he stepped out of the kitchen and made his way to Lucy's room.
"Right phase 1 complete: break into the mansion" I mumbled, I took in my surroundings. I walked through the daunting hallway adorned with priceless pictures and sculptures I admired them carefully recalling the time Lucy and him played tag on this hall and he had knocked a sculpture over resulting in Jude, her father, banning him from the house. He kept to the side side of the hall and made his way up the winding stair case to the third floor. A piecing scream echoed through the mansion startling Grey. 'That sounds like... LUCY' he dashed up the stairs following the scream. He pushed open the door to find Lucy, the mansion workers and Jude cramped in a corner with 3 men wear a white dress shirt layered under a long coat with dark grey top hat adorning their heads, their black coats wore the devil's star on the back, and they each had a gun that had a gold devil's star on it.
The attackers were oblivious to Grey's presence, Lucy stared wide eyed at him mouthing "help us". I quickly nodded my head and squishing myself into a dim corner waiting for my opportunity to strike. "If your not going to tell me where the money is I will kill the child" The man seeming to the ring leader bellowed pointing the gun in Lucy's direction she whimpered in response. Jude sat petrified and wide eyed. I glared at him, what a pathetic excuse of a father,he wasn't even attempting to save her. Seeing them distracted I quickly grabbed a china vase and smashed it over the ringleaders head he accidentally pressed the trigger as he was stunned by the attack, the bullet hit the chandelier landing on the men in a fury of glass and gold. The household dashed in all different directions not looking back.
Lucy sat helplessly on the floor shaking. Grey grabbed Lucy's arm to urge her out the room. She smiled and let him lead him out the room, a cold hand snaked out and grabbed her ankle the man was dripping in blood, glass stuck into his body in unnatural ways she screamed frantically kicking as he stood up yanking her upside down.
"LUCY" cried Grey reaching out to her but he was pulled back by another of the men.
Lucy POV
No no this is not happening I refuse to let this end now, he strangled my ankle with impossible strength and shook me violently. The shine of a gold star caught my eye, it was their gun. I grabbed the gun, I could see Grey's eyes widen in my peripheral vision. I aimed it at the man and held my breath pulling the trigger. Blood sprayed from his abdomen he let go and I dropped in a heap onto the floor. "YOU LITTLE BITCH" screeched the man holding Grey captive he reach for his hoister. Everything was moving to fast, I directed the weapon in his direction pulling the trigger once again, the man fell limply to the ground with blood pooling from his eye. I dropped the gun falling to my knees violently shaking. "L-Lucy are you okay?" asked Grey still stunned I clutched the hem of my once pink dress now stained red. Grey pulled me into a tight hug both of us in tears. In the closet her father watched.
No ones POV
After hours of interrogation by the police the men were charged for attacking and Lucy didn't face charges since she was defending. Lucy stood before her father in his study.
"Lucy you are no longer accepted into this mansion and not worthy of the title of Heartfilia. You are a murder." Shouted Jude and pushed her out the door with a suit case in hand. Ever since then Lucy has been living in the village with Grey and no one ever spoke of the events that occurred the Heartfeilia mansion.
•4 years later•
17 year old Lucy and 18 year old Grey now live in Crocus, the Capital City, Home to Fiore's biggest stars. Grey lightly squeezed Lucy's hand.
"Are you ready Lucy?" He asked cocking his head.
"You kiddin'? I was born ready." Lucy and Grey walked up on stage with their acoustic guitars and sat in the stools that sat behind the microphone.
Notes began to fill the auditorium
Grey
En garde, my god, how she get at me
Either we'll never get it right or it's meant to be
My ego, her pride, some recipe
We're our biggest fans and our own worst enemies
Ain't shy, let the whole world know
Have 'em tuned into the blow by blow
She move, I move, let her go, I go
Stir it up, stand back, watch the firework show
Ayo, too proud to quit when it's broken
Too in denial to admit when it's over
Drowning at separate ends of an ocean
Both in too deep to know where the coast is
Surrounded by waves in a hurricanes
Gaze, when we together ain't none of y'all safe
So buckle or get out of our way
Up in smoke, down in flames cause man
Lucy
When we fight fire with fire
When we cross the line, ayo
Maybe happy ever after's ain't for us
Ain't no surprise when
When we play with knives, ayo
Ain't no broken pride and these aren't paper cuts
Ain't no broken pride and these aren't paper cuts
Grey
One by one on the hunt
Nowhere to hide, nowhere left to run
But I'd rather war with you all of summer
Than a low key peace with another, ayy
One by one every cut
Yeah, it gets deep, but who they to judge
Cause when it's on we roll like the thunder
Then it's RIP to the others ayy
Cycle repeat till the lesson get learned, man
You play with fire, bridges get burnt, man
The standoff only making this worse
But don't nobody move and nobody gets hurt, man
We just caught in our ways
Sucker-punches traded, all fun and games
Until the cards, fall where they may
Then it's all 'can't even, whatever, anyway'
Lucy
When we fight fire with fire
When we cross the line, ayo
Maybe happy ever after's ain't for us
Ain't no surprise when
When we play with knives, ayo
Ain't no broken pride and these aren't paper cuts
Both
I know when you're weakest
You know where my demons hide
Put us on a knife edge
We tear down everything inside, and
I know when you're weakest
You know where my demons hide
Put us on a knife edge
We'll tear down everything inside
Lucy
When will we learn
We've come too far in this to see
How much it hurts
When will we learn
You and I
We've come too far in this to know
When to let go
Are we our better halves
If we only make it worse?
Are we better off apart
But can't say the words?
When will we learn
You and I
We've come too far in this to see
All we ever do is bleed
While Lucy was singing grey scanned the crowed for a man named Bora, he had a bounty on his head for trafficking women. Grey saw a knife logo on is sleeve meaning that he is from Blood Creed. He had been harassing young girls after concerts and leaving them in a river where he whisked them away on a ship.

They quickly bowed and hurried off stage and traded high fives.
"Right now down to business, our target is in the crowd 56th seat to the left from the blood creed." Said Grey. "Do you think you can snipe him from the balcony up to your right?" asked grey.
"What sort of a question is that" Lucy scoffed she opened a black case and took out a sniper riffle.
"See ya in 10" She winked rushing to her destination. Gray gave her a mocked salute in response.
Carefully taking her place on the balcony with a sniper riffle in hand she leaned over to the trigger. She aimed at her target at Bora, he was a tall slim guy with hair dyed an awful shade of Blue. Without batting a eyelash she pulls the trigger watching the bullet cleanly pass through Bora's skull.
