Jinx sprinted as fast as she could, she was slick and agile with her moves while vi ran after her determined. She couldn't imagine the lecture and punishment if Silco knew jinx got away from her. Or the shit sevika would say.

"Get back here!" Vi yelled but jinx was faster, slipping around the corner, making vi slip and fall when she tried to turn quickly like she did.

"You think you'll really catch me?" Jinx chuckled walking backwards looking down at her. She gave a small wave and vi gasped seeing a bomb roll towards her with blinking lights.

She cried out rolling away when neon blue paint exploded on her. She blocked her face but looked at her clothes covered in the cyan liquid shocked, what... the.. fuck? It dripped down the side of her face but she wiped her cheek and growled annoyed. She saw the blue braids fly around the corner again where jinx was running.

Jinx leaped over a cart and ducked so she didn't hit her head on the top. She panted trying to find a hiding place, Milo's going to tell vi, her sister was going to hunt her down no matter what, powder or jinx, vi was gonna try hunting her. 

And that for some reason made powder feel tears sting her eyes.

"Jinx!" She heard behind her, a tear ran down her face seeing the grown woman that she knew once as her sister.

Powder wiped her face and ran again, finding a clear space in the sky for her to alert Caitlyn to find her. She needed help.

Powder looked up and saw the water tower. No buildings or signs covered it, there.

She jumped up to climb the ladder, the high grounds never failed her before. It always worked out when she got off the ground.

But hands grabbed the kids of her braided pigtails, using momentum to swing jinx back and threw her to the ground as he gun fell from her hands.

"Think it was going to be that easy?" Vi stood over her as jinx sneered looking up at her.

"Kind of, fat hands," jinx spat and rolled back grabbing junior, immediately shot at the pink hair girl and the bullet got caught in her arm. Vi cried out holding her arm as jinx now looked pleased.

Jinx grabbed the flare from her large pocket on her leg, immediately ripping the pin out and held the flare torch high above her. Green smoke flooded out and polluted the sky over them. Jinx's chest heaved up and down as she stared at vi with wide blue grey eyes.

"You sneaky bitch," vi growled and went for the attack, making jinx drop the flare torch.

The older girl tackled the younger as they both yelled, jinx swung her elbow across Vi's face as vi was on top of her, she saw blood run down her nose as vi was surprised she landed another blow so fast. Vi noticed her struggling to get out from under her as she tried to roll over and crawl. She pulled her fist up and slammed her brass knuck into jinx's ribs making the smaller girl scream in pain and fear.

"Get off me you freak!" Jinx cried as she pushed the girl off but vi growled pulling her by the back of her overalls. Jinx gasped when Vi's other fist hit her across the face, luckily it wasn't the one with a brass over her fist.

Her ears run as another hit landed against her face. Blood started to run down her face from her nose. Her eyes dazed as she couldn't focus on attacking, tears ran down the sides of her head as she laid on the ground.

"Three hits and your down? Oh come on," vi breathed heavy sitting on top of the girls stomach. Hitting once more to keep her down.

"Jay..." powder sniffled looking at the sky.

"Can't call for help now little girl," vi spat blood to the side from when she got hit earlier. Grabbing the girls neck and slammed her head into the ground, squeezing her neck. 

Jinx gasped but slapped her hand across Vi's face and tried kicking to escape, grabbing the side of Vi's hair and pulled her down, enough that she was able to roll over and got on top of the stronger girl. Not hesitating to throw her own punches but they weren't as strong as the others.

Vi grunted when she was hit in the side of the head and again in her ear, they were enough to make her dizzy, jinx knew that. She reached over and grabbed jinx's gun, aiming it up at the smaller girl making her stop hitting.

She pulled the trigger.

Jinx breathed out a laugh when nothing happened.

"I made my own weapons, so no one else knows how to use them right," jinx laughed as she shook from adrenaline.

Jinx ripped the gun from her hand and smacked vi across the face with it, finally actually hurting her.

Jinx cried out when vi yanked her off and pinned her to the ground.

"You shitty little pest, who do you think you are? What do you want?" Vi snarled in her ear as jinx wiggled under her with an arm pinned behind her back. Lifting her lean arm up ready to dislocate it.

"Just some unfinished business, ask the ogre," jinx huffed with her face against the ground.

Crack

"Ahhh!" Jinx screamed out in pain as more tears ran down her face. The sharp pain of her shoulder dislocating made her see stars.

"Viktor!" The little girl inside of her begged for her brothers. Jayce could hold her when she had a nightmare, Viktor would hold her hand as they stayed up talking about their fears and life in the undercity. She wanted to go home. She didn't want to do this anymore.

Vi hummed and popped her shoulder back into place.

"I don't know who you think you are, but you better know who I am, see how easy I can break you little girl?" Vi picked up jinx's head by the back of her hair, slamming her face back into the ground.

She rolled the girl over as she barely could keep her eyes open, tears still running as she tried to stay away. Vi didn't feel any better about her win, it was a valid fight but there was no way jinx could win.

Powder took a sharp inhale and grabbed Vi's shirt, slamming her forehead into her older sisters mouth, going for her teeth.

Vi screamed falling back holding her mouth, a tooth fell into her hand, looking at the smaller girl shocked of the attack. She saw jinx's make up run down her face as she scooted back holding her ribs with her uninjured arm. she was whimpering, not sure if she was trying to hold back her cries or pain.

"Don't think I'm that weak violet," jinx glared at her viciously.

Vi stood back up as jinx stayed on the ground, they didn't take their eyes off each other but jinx looked past her instead, something, someone else got her attention.

"Shit," vi hissed dropping her tooth seeing green streams flew past and above her.

A person dropped off a hoverboard with a club weapon but vi jumped back by jinx before she got hit.

Another two firelights jumped down in front of the sisters.

Vi looked at them then back jinx's face as she didn't seem afraid of them.

"E-Ekko!" Jinx hiccuped a cry reaching for him as she was stuck on the ground still behind vi.

Vi was taken back by how she already knew the firelight's name.

"Get away from her," ekko behind the mask started to walk towards them.

"Or what little man? I'm just gonna get her again, whatever Silco wants it's gonna happen," vi shrugged stepping closer to jinx.

Jinx quickly scrambled to her feet and hit her fist into Vi's bullet wound as a distraction. The pain was enough for her to run past her, loosing her balance, falling into ekko's arms before she hit the ground.

"Powder are you okay?" Ekkos disguised voice sounded extremely worried as he knelt them both on the ground.

Vi froze.

"I can't breathe," powder sobbed holding onto his forearms as she sat on her knees.

"It's hurts," her voice sounded so small.

"I got you, we're getting you out of here," Ekko reassured her.

"We have to find Caitlyn," powder gasped as she hyperventilated but he touched the side of her face where her wound was opened, blood running down her nose.

"Of course," he agreed without knowing who Caitlyn was.

"W-what did you say before?" Vi felt sick as she watched them, how familiar they seemed with each other. Like old friends.

Powder looked back at her nervous to get hit again. That doe eyed fearful innocent look on her face snapped right into place. She had the same look on her face seven years ago. When she thought she lost her little sister.

"P-powder," vi bit out. First time she's said that name in years. That name made her hard hurt.

"Come on let's go," ekko helped powder to her feet quickly, pulling his hoverboard around and picked powder up with ease.

"Hey wait a minute you can't take her," vi stumbled forward as they moved faster now to escape.

"You can't have her- powder wait!" Vi begged as powder held onto Ekko as he made their escape.

"Powder!" She screamed desperately as the fire lights dove off the side of the water towers to fly away from her.

"No!" She cried out with a tear running down her own face now.

Vi fell to her knees and looked at her hands while she felt like she could cry. Her hands were bloodied and knuckles were bruised. The blood on her hands were powders... again.

"No!"
