double life (Tangerine fic)

Panther and Ladybug

I was holding the case and following Ladybug.

"Were gonna put some distance between us and the owners." he said

"Are you nervous?" Maria asked

"Yea im nervous."

"Yea you're not the one holding the damn case." I muttered following right behind him. he stopped in front of the doors and we were greeted by a man in a white suit and sunglasses. He looked ready to kill. I put the case behind me and stood back a bit. He stabbed Ladybug and barged past me, I gripped the case tightly and hit him over the head with it. Both men crashed in the frosted glass door of the bar area. he gripped the knife and pulled it out, finding it only stabbed Ladybug's phone

"You lucky son of a bitch." The man said

"You stabbed me?" Ladybug asked i rolled my eyes

"Now's not the time!" i yelled. I watched as he went to stab him again and i pushed him into the tv monitor. The man kept telling about him getting revenge on Ladybug

"I don't even know you dude!" Ladybug grabbed the case from me and started using it as a defense weapon. I scrambled over to the bar trying to find something to use. I eventually found a sturdy bottle and hit him over the head. It broke but he still stood tall. Ladybug took over and was beating him with the case. I stood in the background, putting my mask down slightly, grabbing a bottle of vodka, and taking a few sips. Ladybug was holding the case on the guy's neck, he seemed to have this handled. 

"Can we take a time out? Talk this over?" he asked. I rolled my eyes at his passiveness. He flipped on the ground still holding the case. The man threw his knife in his direction but it hit the case and landed right in his heart. He fell and you could hear his neck break as it landed right on the edge of the case. Ladybug put his head in his hand

"Let this be a lesson in the toxicity of anger."

Ladybug started to clean up the scene while I was setting up the body so it didn't look like we murdered a man back here. I put my mask back on and started to become worried. I wasn't known to be quiet on jobs like this, something bad always has to happen. First seeing my husband and brother-in-law and now this.

"So what the hell are we gonna do now?" i asked.

Ladybug just sat in front of the body trying to think of where he recognized him from. I was pacing back and forth trying to figure out where to put the case if we couldn't get off. Ladybug grabbed the case from me and instructed me to follow. We weaved around the other passengers hoping to get to an open door. He stopped in front of me and looked back at me. My eyes landed on Lemon's back. I pulled Ladybug back toward me.

"Joburg." he whispered

"You were there?!" i asked.

"You too?" i nodded not going into an explanation. He looked around the corner and pulled me with him. He then ran into a Momomon mascot and they picked up the case. I watched as Ladybug fought them for the case, and eventually won. We ran toward the door as it just closed

"shitballs!" he yelled

"Fuck. I guess we have to wait for the next stop." I said.

Ladybug and I ran back to the body and stole his phone to call Maria.

"We missed the stop." he said

"Why?"

"Because god hates us."

"No she doesn't" i stifled a laugh. Ladybug and I were the unlucky ones here.

"Do you guys still have the case?" she asked
