"I know it'll be quite the journey but I'll report to you every update that's going on." Lucy clutched her phone with her left hand whilst rummaging in her black bag for her keys to the apartment. Smiling suddenly as she finally found the key and swiftly unlocking the door.

"Lu-chan, you need to also remember that your partner is-"

"An asshole. Levy, I completely experienced that jackass attitude firsthand. I get it. Look, I don't care if he gives me that high-and-mighty attitude, I don't give a-FUCK!" The blonde kicked the door shut and turning around,

"Lu-chan? Lu-chan?! What's going on? Is everything okay? Lu-chan?!"

"I'm still here. Sorry - just had a bit of a scare." Lucy glared at the figure that seemed to make itself comfortable at home on her couch in the living room. Her grip on the device tightened.

"Scare? Lu-chan-"

"I'm a bit tired, I'll cal you in a bit. Bye."

Lucy's brown orbs circled accusingly on the figure that suddenly turned it's head to face her. Immediately, Lucy dropped her bag and grabbed the gun that was hidden under her shoes and rolled to the left side, aiming the handgun straight to the intruder.

"What the hell are you doing in my apartment?" Brown clashed with olive green as the intruder slowly stood up.

"I believe we began on the wrong foot. I'd like for us to start again." Lucy narrowed her eyes at the figure. Her index finger was twitching temptingly against the smooth, cold trigger to shoot the bastard.

"No. But it showed me your true colors, Natsu Dragneel. Don't try to fool me because I know just about everything about you." The pink-haired agent placed both of his hands up in a surrendering manner.

"Lucy..."

"Don't 'Lucy' me. I don't care whether you are here to compensate for your nasty attitude or the arrogance of your being. I don't want to hear it. Get out of my apartment." Lucy still had her fingers drawn on the edge of the trigger. The barrel was full. If he thought he could just dismiss her, he better think again otherwise talking won't be the only thing that's get through to him.

"Look. I get it. You hate me-"

"Wrong."

"Wrong? But you just said-"

"I hate your existence. Every fiber, vein, blood and muscles that make you." Natsu shifted his leg awkwardly.

"I'm assuming you think I'm-"

CRASH

The window for the outside balcony smashed into pieces and a tear-gas grenade rolled quickly into the room. Alert and fully conscious of the situation, Lucy darted to the walls on her left and one word ran in her mind.

Shit.

"What the-"

"GET DOWN!" Lucy yelled, trudging forward and throwing herself on the male agent. Topping both of them over her couch that offered a surprising cover. Just as soon as the sofa slide into defense, a serious of shootings were made upon her glass door that shattered into more pieces. Lucy grabbed another gun beneath her other shoe and check them quickly with thin lips. The barrel was full of unused bullets ready to kill. Reaching inside her shirt, Natsu stared helplessly at the blonde before him. Was she really that good? So good that she really had surpassed popsicles girlfriend?

"What do you think you're going?" Natsu demanded. Reaching out and stopping her arms from retracting whatever from her shirt. A scowl was plastered on Lucy's face as she turned her head and nodded towards the intruders.

"Look. I don't have time to play games. My apartment is currently being treated like a battlezone and I just want them to get the hell out." Lucy replied, her voice small like a whisper but Natsu could feel her menacingly glare on him. He shook his head.

"Beautiful women shouldn't get their hands dirty. It hardens their smooth skin." Natsu chuckled, dusting his clothes and reaching for his belt that held necessary items.

"Beautiful my ass," the blonde hiss, " Each day, competition or no competition, I'm still busting my ass every fucking day. Just leave me alone to do my job as an assasin." Lucy replied, grabbing the tear gas and smoke grenade from her shirt.

"Give me those." Natsu said briskly, snatching the two from her idle hands and stuffing them down his pockets. Suddenly, he felt the air shift around them,

"Shit. We gotta go. Now." Natsu pulled on her hand and abruptly stood up, notifying the shooters of their location.

"There they are!"

"Get them!"

"What do you think you're-!"

"Now!" Natsu immediately kicked the couch towards the intruders that were standing next to windows, also throwing the tear gas and smoke grenades towards them.

"Quick, this'll only cover us for a few minutes." Natsu gasped, running the both of them towards the door and slamming it open.

"At the door!" A voice yelled in the midst of the smoke.

"Damn." Lucy muttered, slinging her beautiful (freshly plucked that morning) flowers in the new china vase that stood beside the door on her table, throwing the contents to the smoke.

The two ran down a few stairs and jumped the last two flights. Natsu pulled out a black smartphone and switched it to a quick dial to a pizza company. Lucy glared at the pinkette as he texted an order of two pepperoni and four sides, with one large Coke - it was at that moment that Lucy never felt more pissed in her life than now.

yayyyyer

Third chapter done. I've noticed some errors in my story and was like, wow. How did I not see this? Apologies if this chapter seems too short! I'll avenge it with a much longer chapter next.

Lots of love,
