Liz’s POV:

The overall ride was fine, taking shimmer to Piltover was like stealing candy from a baby, which is what me and my brother Silco, would do a lot when we were kids. I didn't really like stealing from the kids but what my brother did I did, we were some troublemakers back then. Now we are one of the two most feared duos of all time which is mostly my brother but I'm feared as well. The ship started to dock at Piltover’s docking area. A whole lot of people were there to greet our shipment. As I looked around for any sign of danger, Sevika got passage for the shipment of shimmer by paying off the guy. The guy gave into the money after some ‘persuasion’ from the intimidating look he got from her. I knocked on the floor boards with my boots to signal my niece Jinx, to come up after the guy left with the bribe. “It's the Firelights!” I turned around to see what one of my henchmen was talking about to my suprise, a masked figure with swords flying right behind me on a hoverboard. I didn't even see the flying crystal stuff until it hit me back onto a crate of shimmer, me and Sevika got hit with the crystals, both of us getting launched onto a crate, I accidentally landed on her arm. Restricted not being able to help was frustrating, me and Sevika tried to break free of the crystals but nothing worked. As the Firelights looked around the shipment, a loud and quaking explosion could be heard from below deck, purple smoke started to arise from the lower deck area. My niece had finally shown, the hatch door opened with a whole lot of smoke. Jinx walked through it towards the Firelights “Hi.”, ‘She's got to be joking!?’ I thought giving her a total mom look that she didn't even notice. In one quick movement she grab two bombs from her hips throwing them at two of the four firelights nocking them off of the ship with a pink explosion as they began to fall down. The last three remaining firelights started trying to sabotage the shipment of shimmer, failing after Jinx kicked their butts! One of them tried dropping a flare to burn the split shimmer but Jinx grabbed them and punched their mask off. My eyes went wide with horror because the girl under the mask looked like Vi but it wasn't. Jinx was stunned by this looka like, still holding on to her she dropped the flare on to the shimmer lighting it a blaze. I could tell what was going on in Jinx’s head “It's not her Jinx!” I screamed trying to break her senseless look on her face. The girl gets free of her grasp but is shot in the back with Jinx’s gun. The last firelight ran toward the downed girl trying to wake her up but she was clearly unconscious, he got mad and started to run at Jinx with a weapon drawn. Jinx pulls out her giant machine gun firing at him rapidly. The guy escapes just barely when one of his buddys comes up on a hoverboard taking him away. Jinx gets out of control and starts firing all over the ship hitting shimmer containers, and all of the henchmen who were crystalized against things. Sevika is able to finally break her way free ducking at the bullets, but I get shot for not being able to move because of the crystals, I screamed, loud. The burning in my chest and arm is throbbing uncontrollable, it's a pain I haven't felt before. This was different. It was a different bullet. Jinx stopped firing after a couple minutes, Sevika ran over to her grabbing her by the shoulder, spinning her around to her face “You were supposed to guard the cargo!” her voice was raspy and angry. I got hit on the head with a blunt object and was cut out of the crystal by a piltover guard who had snuck onto the ship. The last thing I saw was Sevika staring into Jinx’s eyes with anger, then she looked towards me, who was being dragged off quickly. Her eyes went wide then more guards crowded around them with a whole lot of ‘questions’ involving what just happened. She couldn’t get to me in time but she tried, then I was gone and the world went black…

Macie’s POV:

I was there at the dock inspecting some of the wounded soldiers that had just got in a fight with undercitiers who had tried to ship shimmer into Piltover territory. It fascinated me how the undercity is so much more chaotic than Piltover! I snuck away after taking care of the wounded, sneaking onto the blimp I mean. I wasn't allowed to go on the ship because it was so-called ‘dangerous’ but I didn't care. As I was getting closer to the ship I noticed a friend of mine, Caitlyn, sneaking into the ship as well, I quickly and quietly followed her in. She went down into the deeper part of the ship like she was on a trail, I heard more guards coming so I hid while they passed and went down into the part of the ship where Caitlyn was. They came out a couple of minutes later with Caitlyn and a wounded person who I had never seen before but from the looks of it he was from the undercity. As soon as they left the blimp, I went down to see if there were any more people. I snuck around finding no one at first until I heard shuffling behind me, turning around to see a man in a mask staring at me from the ground. He shuffled one more time pulling out a gun pointing it at me “Don't shoot-” He grunted and put the gun down, I noticed he was holding his leg “You’re hurt? Hold on, let me help you.” I moved towards him but the gun was again pointed towards me. He looked at my side and apparently saw my knife, I grabbed my side slowly and grabbed the knife, “Don’t try it-” I grabbed the knife and threw it away “I'm not going to hurt you.” I slowly made my way over to him helping as much as I could with the little resources I had left . “This is going to sting a little.” I poured some disinfectant on the open wound, he winced at the gel and pulled the gun towards my head as I bandaged the wound to the best of my ability. “I told you, you can't kill me for that.” He seemingly rolled his eyes then tried getting up by himself but fell back down “Let me help you.” He gave me a glance then put his arm out to me who had already stood up. I pulled him up to his feet. “See, I'm not the bad guy here-.” As soon as he got his balance he started to hoble away quickly then went up stairs. I followed him getting another glance to back off, I put my hands up and acted like I was getting arrested. He just rolled his eyes then jumped off the blimp “What- WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” I ran after him stopping at the edge to look over and see him standing on a hoverboard that came out of nowhere looking up at me like I'm an idiot. “How did you-” He zoomed off in a hurry through the pipes before I could ask. I was confused and wanted to find out who he was but I had to get home. I made my way home with an escort of Piltover guards after they had found me on the blimp. It was way past my curfew to be home and I knew my dad was going to be furious. I slowly opened my door looking into my dark room hoping he wasn't in that said darkness, I closed the door behind me letting out a sigh of relief- “Where have you been Macie?!” I closed my eyes and hoped it was my imagination playing tricks on me but then my lights turned on signaling I wasn't alone “Dad, I'm so sorry! I got caught up with some really important work and-.” I stopped talking when I saw my dad's worried face “I have no excuse, I'm really sorry.” he sighed walking over to me and motioned for me to get down, so I kneeled in front of him. He gave me a hug pulling me down a bit further “I understand, it's just-” he pulled away from the hug “I worry about you.” “I know dad.” He walked towards the door “I love you and goodnight Macie.” I stood up and grabbed the door for him since he was too short “Thank you my dear.” “Goodnight dad, I love you too.” I closed the door behind him with a slight smile then headed to bed, undressing then changed into my pj’s. I layed down slowly falling into a dreamless sleep.
