Estranged : Kid X Reader / Killer X Reader

Birdie's POV

«Still causing trouble, navy girl.»
 
An involuntary smile bent your lips at that ancient nickname.

«F/n!» Booka shouted seeing the crewmate.
He grabbed her arm and pulled her closer, quickly observing her to assess the damage.
«You all in one piece?»

Still rubbing the dust off her eyes, she nodded.

You could see the pirate took a subtle sigh of relief before wearing his gruff scowl back.

«You have really done it this time, girl.» he rumbled «Let me tell ya: the captain’s not happy. Not at all.»
 
Gun fire, shouts and clangs were all over the deck above you.

«What about you, navy girl? You injured?»
«I’m fine.» you briefly said «Let’s get out of here!»

Before you could do anything, though, a few enemy pirates jumped down from the hole upon your heads, unsheathed sabers pointing your way.

You crouched down, ready to react, but something extremely fast came from behind them, cutting them down in a few seconds.
Their bodies fell on the ground, revealing long blond locks and a familiar mask. You didn’t miss the gasp from the woman beside you.

«F/N!»

In an instant, Killer was in front of her, both his hands on her shoulders.

«Are you okay?»

She swallowed and nodded again, her eyes dropping on the wooden floor.
Killer took a deep breath, all his tense muscles relaxing at once.

«What the hell were you thinking?»

Seeing she was in difficulty, you decided to step in.

«Hey blondie.»
The pirate turned, still not letting go of F/N.
«Y/N.» he took a moment to look at you «You’re bleeding.»
«That’s all you have to say, after months apart? I’m hurt.» you snorted.
«I’m glad to see you. Less glad to see you didn’t change a bit.»
«I did change. They promoted me, I’m captain now.»

Killer sighed before moving his attention back to F/N. You watched in awe as he gently pushed a lock of her hair over her shoulder.

«We’ll talk about this later. Here, your things.»

She attempted a smile, taking back her satchel.

«Yo women! Ya good?» the Mohican happily shouted, jumping in the basement.
«We're good.» you confirmed with a smirk, walking over.

Being surrounded by the Kid Pirates again made all your inner organs tremble in excitement.

Although there’s someone I really can’t meet.

Catching your rifle hanging from the Mohican’s shoulder, you snapped your fingers at him.

«You got something for me?»
«Suit yourself.» he grinned, throwing it at you.

When the weapon was back in your hands, you felt like you could breathe again.

«Sorry guys, they saw me teaming up with F/N. I can’t take prisoners.» you stated, moving the trigger guard.

More suffering screams came from above.

«I’m sure captain Kid is on it already.» Booka said.

They saw your body getting stiff at the mention of his name.

«Very well then. Let’s get out of here.»
 
 
The Kid Pirate’s ship crushed the enemy ship against an atoll. Apparently, Heat, Wire and Kid had already killed most of the Gifters. The frog guy was now engaged by the redhead.
