Watch x Your x Surroundings

We begin departing from our hideout. It wasn't too far from the city, so traveling there wasn't a big issue. The only issue was getting caught. We were already wanted criminals in the area, so we had to go in disguises.

The disguises weren't too drastic. Most of us had just changed our hair and outfits. My hair was naturally long, so I tied it in a way to make it look like it's chin-length. 

I check my watch for the time; it was 9pm. The store closes at 11pm. We have exactly two hours to complete our task. Though, not everyone decided to come. Hisoka, Kortopi, Kalluto, and Bonolenov stayed back at the hideout with the boss. 

No one ever left Chrollo by himself. Even though he was powerful enough to defend himself if anyone tried attacking, some spiders choose to stay back just in case. 

Personally, I think it's an insult to our leader. The boss is more than capable of protecting himself if anyone ever found our hideout and attacked him. But who am I to stick my ass in their decisions? 

"Feitan and Shizuku will go in through the back doors. Shizuku, you'll kill the staff who should be working in the back, same with you Fei," I explain. 

"Do not call me that." Feitan mutters. 

"Shalnark, Machi, Pakunoda, and I will act like regular customers. Machi and Pakunoda can steal the items, while Shalnark, you can control the guards and workers," I continue. 

"Well what about the rest of us?" Nobunaga asks, his tone sounding a little annoyed. 

"You guys..." I turn around to face them. "...will kill everyone in our way." 

Nobunaga, Phinks, Franklin, an Uvogin nod in agreement with a grin plastered on their faces. 

I was glad that Chrollo let me plan most of our missions. As bitchy as it may sound, telling other people what to do is fun. Even though there can be arguments among us every once in a while, we all trusted one another; and that's why I consider the spiders my family. I would never dream of putting any of them in danger or betraying them. 

We continue discussing the plan as we near closer to the city. The store shouldn't be too noticeable. It will most likely blend in with the rest of the buildings- which is perfect. 

"You think I'll be able to get a cool chain for myself?" Phinks asks. "Uh- do whatever you want, as long as you fulfil the bosses needs." I respond. 

We soon reach the heart of the city; the fascinating, yet bustling place. Most people only come here to shop, and that's exactly what we've came for. But we don't exactly 'shop'... we steal. 

"There it is." I point to a large emporium at the corner of the street. 'Not too noticeable, huh?'  I think to myself. 

It was the largest and brightest store out of all of the others on this street. But because of it's size, it'll be easier to blend in with everyone else, and harder for the cops and guards to locate us. 

Feitan and Shizuku start making their way to the back of the store. Uvogin and Franklin stay hidden around the corner so they don't get spotted. Their large figure would bring a lot of suspicion towards us. 

Nobunaga and Phinks stay together, a bit farther from us. Shalnark, Machi, Pakunoda, and I start making our way into the store. Once Feitan and Shizuku hear the guards yelling at us, that's when it's go time. 

"Damn, all the stones are enclosed in this glass box." Shalnark presses his face against the glass, knocking on it as hard as he can. 

"Excuse me sir, it says do not touch the glass," A tall security guard says sternly. 

Shalnark gives him an annoyed look before walking away. After walking around with Shal for a bit, some security guards start causing a commotion near the back of the store. Someone had stolen a bunch of jewelry and stones. 

I head over to the back to see what's going on. Pakunoda and Machi were running away from them, with a bunch of others running after them. 

The sound of cop car sirens and shrieks clashed together, causing chaos everywhere. My guess was that Nobunaga and Phinks had began killing the cops and guards outside, while Uvogin and Franklin were destroying the cop cars that came towards their way, including the people in it. 

Shalnark had already taken control of the armed guards, shooting their guns towards the others. I had already made sure to gather all gems and other precious stones that the boss would like. 

'Shit. Kortopi would've been able to make copies of these.' I think to myself. But it was much too late for that now. 

Feitan and Shizuku had come out from the back of the store with blood splattered all over them. 

I shoot blazes of fire towards the guards running towards me, watching them fall to the ground. "How pathetic. They can't even dodge a simple attack like that? They shouldn't qualify as guards." I scoff. 

"Feitan, go outside and help out Nobunaga and Phinks," I hastily say, throwing punches at the guards in every direction. "We have to start making our way back before we get into some serious trouble." 

Thunderous gunshots pierced the atmosphere. It wasn't a problem though; their aim needed some work. 

I follow Machi and Pakunoda back outside, running as quickly as we can without dropping anything. 

I accidentally bump into someone who was also running out of the store. We both trip over each other and some of the items fall out of my hands. 

I didn't have time to wait and help him up. Instead, I quickly stand up and gather everything I dropped, continuing to run. 

I look back to see if he had gotten up yet, and he did. We immediately lock eye contact. His light grey eyes looking deep into mine, as the wind blows his golden hair away from his pale face. My god, he was so beautiful. 

But there was no time to be mooning over some guy I had ran into. I'm not in some sort of cheesy romance movie or anything, this is real life. 

"Y/N! Hurry the hell up!" Uvo yells, jumping on top of an SUV car. I run towards the group who was already making their way inside the car. A swarm of cops were charging towards me. I panicked a bit, so I jumped on top of the car with Uvo, as Shalnark begins driving off just in time. 

I exhale with relief, watching the cops run after the car, slowly getting left behind. 

"Who were you looking at?" Uvo asks. His powerful voice startled me a bit. "I wasn't looking at anyone," I respond, avoiding eye contact with him. 

"Don't lie, kid. You don't normally slow down when running like that. Plus, you looked behind you for exactly 4 seconds. That's out of the ordinary," He adds. 

I didn't really pay attention to what he was saying. I just gave him a simple 'uh-huh'. 

I lean over and knock on the window below me. Machi rolls down the window, and I hand her some extra items I gathered. 

I lay down on my back on top of the car, while Uvo stands up straight besides me. 

Fuck. Why can't I stop thinking of that boy? There wasn't anything significant about him. Was it his eyes? Was it the way he looked at me? I didn't understand what I felt. But I didn't like this feeling.
