Engmano: Partners in Crime

You'll never take us alive.
We swore that death will do us part.
They'll call our crimes a work of art.
You'll never take us alive.
We'll live like spoiled royalty, lovers and partners,
Partners in crime.

…

"Are you ready?" Arthur asked.

"Of course," Lovino said. "We've done this a dozen times."

Arthur smiled.

"I was just checking, luv," Arthur said. "We won't live forever."

"I know that," Lovino snapped. "And I hope you know that I'd follow you to the ends of the earth."

"I do. And I'll follow you too."

They intertwined their hands, squeezing briefly before releasing. With their sunglasses in place, they got out of the car and went into the store. Lovino was carrying a bag, and they both withdrew their guns.

"Everybody freeze!" Arthur shouted, pointing his gun at the customers. "Nobody move."

As Arthur was saying this, Lovino moved over to the cashier.

"Put the money in the bag," Lovino ordered, "or we will shoot."

The cashier frantically nodded, opening the register and removing the money. Lovino smirked.

"Make sure to empty it all," Lovino said.

After everything was done, the two retreated, their car already ready for them. The two drove off, pleased with their newest heist.

…

Arthur was watching the news when Lovino entered the room, slamming a piece of paper on the coffee table. Arthur glanced towards Lovino before he looked at the paper. He smirked, and so did Lovino.

It was a wanted poster featuring the two of them. And it wasn't too shabby a reward. And it was offered for each of them.

"Our faces are flooding the streets," Lovino said. "The heat is on."

"And if the heat comes close enough to burn," Arthur said, chuckling slightly, "then I guess we'll have to play with fire."

…

It had been another heist, just as usual. Nothing had gone wrong. They didn't notice that one of the workers was calling the police.

But they noticed when the sirens approached. The two of them exchanged a look, before they ran out of the store with their loot.

The police were waiting for them. They had the place surrounded, with their guns pointed at them.

"You are under arrest!" the chief shouted. "Put the weapons down and put your hands on your heads."

Lovino and Arthur exchanged a look.

"If the heat comes close enough to burn," Arthur said.

"Then we'll burn this place to the ground," Lovino said.

"Drop your weapons!" the chief repeated.

The two ignored the order, doing the exact opposite by pointing their weapons at the chief.

"Fire!" the chief shouted.

The guns were fired, and to the two thieves it looked as though they were staring at the sky as it was raining lead. After a while the barrage stopped, leaving two corpses in their wake.

…

You never took us alive.
We swore that death would do us part.
So now we haunt you in the dark.
You never took us alive.
We live as ghosts among these streets.
Lovers and partners,
Partners in crime.

So, I got inspired by the song Partners in Crime by Set It Off. I was asked to do Engmano in either a Mafia or Pirate AU. I couldn't get any decent prompts, so I decided to go for this option. Plus the pairing fit with the song.
