A shaky hand tried to dial the police, only to drop the phone on the floor as she got pulled back with a hand on her mouth, and a gun pointed at her temple.
"Call those pests, and you won't live to see the sun tomorrow", Devil Rider whispered, a tone deeper and rougher than usual, which indicated he was really frustrated this time.
The panicked guard shook her head frantically, letting a sigh pass his lips.
"Good girl", he said before knocking her out.
"So, that's everyone?", Blood Rose came up to him and swung a arm around his shoulder. He looked back at her from the side before rolling his eyes. "Shut up"
"Hey! I helped with the fight too you know. Don't put the blame on me"
"I didn't say anything"
"But I can sense it", she narrowed her eyes.
"Whatever", he replied lazily as he walked towards a specific part of the museum to see what he wanted in the far middle display, light shining on it. It was a beautiful painting, but he wasn't hear to gawk over its beauty.
"Hey"
"What?", he asked sternly, yet didn't get a reply instantly as Blood Rose went past him. Raising an eyebrow looking at her back, she continue fiddling with the lights until there was no spotlight on the painting anymore.
"What did you just do?"
"The lights, it's dangerously hotter than other lights and can most possibly burn your hand, maybe even melt it", she took the painting effortlessly. "This has a protective case over it, meaning the lights won't damage it.
She extended the painting towards him, and he looked at her warily before trying to take it but only ended up grasping the air.
"Pft!", she stifled a laugh. "Did you really think I'll give you this bad boy?", she looked fondly at the painting. "Worth 500 million...well if I auctioned it off I can get twice, maybe even thrice the price right?"

"You mean if I auctioned it off, not you", he crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes, her behavior ticking him off.
"Oh come on, don't be so selfish"
"Well sorry, I guess you haven't noticed but I literally give no fucks"
"Mhm, feisty. I like that", she wiggled her eyebrows suggestively. "Okay then, I'll give you the painting. But!"
Devil Rider let out a groan, and wondered if he should plot to kill her. After all, killing a criminal would lessen his crimes. "What now?"
"We have to work as accomplices from now on"
He deadpanned. "Are you fucking serious?"
"It's not forever, just until you can give me back how much you sold this painting for!", Blood Rose leaned on the wall with the painting in her hands.
"I'm not giving you anything"
"So we'll have to work together forever then~"
"You're so annoying"
"I know, pretty boy", she winked.
"So, what's it gonna be?"
Chenle hates this. He hates this. He clearly said he doesn't want to work together last night but now this bitch is trying to bribe her. He probably should just give up the painting, it's not like he doesn't have the money anyways.
But something about her intrigues him, and he doesn't know if that's a good or a bad thing. It's most probably bad, but Blood Rose has this kind of sparkle in her eyes. It's mysterious, playful and just overall hynoptizing. He's not admitting it, but secretly he knows the truth.
After what feels like forever, he finally gave his answer.
"Fine"
