"Get dunked!"

The hustle and bustle of the huge city weren't enough to cover her shout and the echo of metal coming into contact with human flesh.
The heavy metallic gauntlets landed straight on his stomach, knocking him off his feet. Vi grinned out of pure satisfaction. There wasn't nothing better than punching this idiot into next century.

"Why you..." the man growled as he tried to stand back on his feet.

"Sorry honey, nothing personal" the enforcer grinned "Just putting you where you belong"

"And where this might be?" the thief growled as his eyes glinted dangerously at Vi.

"Six feet under" the pinkette laughed, pointing at the tattoo on her cheek. The thief, understanding the meaning of the mock, he let out an outraged scream and charged at Vi, retrieving a knife from his pocket.

"Steady..."

The accented voice echoed through his ears and he knew he had only a few seconds before he was out of the game once and for all. The net pinned him down on the hard asphalt, making him swear loudly at his own stupidity and ignorance.

"Nice shot, Cupcake" Vi commented as she turned to grin up at the Sherrif of Piltover who was standing on the roof of a building a few steps away.

Their life. This was actually their life and Vi wouldn't exchange it with anything in Runeterra. What was better than feeling the adrenaline in your veins and that satisfaction when you bring criminals to justice?

At the sound of sirens, Vi turned to face a police car stopping by and two officers appearing from the inside, a young, blonde woman and a man with such dark skin that he reminded Vi of her fellow Champion in the League, Lucian.

"Officer Vi" the woman greeted

"Officer Raynolds" Vi grinning "Didn't except you here"

"Hmm yeah neither did I" officer Raynolds nodded "What do you have for us?"

"Nothin' special, just a thug that decided it was funny to mug an old woman" Vi shrugged her shoulders "Just take him in, he won't resist"

"I think it's should be better if we waited for the sheriff..." the other officer protested but was interrupted by an accented, woman voice.

"I don't think that my orders will have any difference from what officer Vi told you to do, officer Kimblee" Caitlyn said sharply "Just take him into custody"

"Yes ma'am" they both saluted and rushed to the thief that had witnessed the whole scene from his uncomfortable position.

"When are they going to take me seriously?" Vi pouted like a child that had lost his lollipop.

"When you are going to act more responsibly" Caitlyn replied, a smile hidden under the shadow of her characteristic purple hat.

"C'mon Cait, we both know this ain't happening" Vi laughed and pushed the sheriff playfully, almost trippingher off her feet.

"Ouch. Did you really had to do that?"
Caitlyn grimaced as she rubbed her arm.

"Oops... My apologies sherrif" Vi mocked and bowed slightly

"Grow up" Caitlyn rolled her eyes "Let's head back to the station, shall we?"

"Sure thing. I betcha you're driving?"

"Well, if you can drive with those gauntlets of yours, I don't mind the co-driver seat" Caitlyn said as she walked towards their own car, waving back at her enforcer. Vi barely surpressed a chuckle.
