Gotta keep
One jump ahead of the breadline
One swing ahead of the sword
I steal only what I can't afford
That's Everything!


"Stop!"

(y/n) smirked as the steps of the officers slowly, but surely, became softer. The streets of (city of choice) were quiet, minus the police's failed attempts to stop our little thief and return what she had stolen. The miss continued her chase into the night. "Huh?" She noticed the steps were no longer there. A snicker crawled out of her throat as she turned to the nearest building, and with almost perfect skills, scaled the wall like it was nothing. She continued bouncing off walls until she reached the roof of a apartment.

One jump ahead of the lawmen
That's all, and that's no joke
These guys don't appreciate I'm broke

Riffraff! Street rat! Scoundrel! Take that!

Just a little snack, guys

Rip him open, take it back, guys

I can take a hint, gotta face the facts
You're my only friend, Abu!


With a sigh, she plopped down at the edge of the roof, her legs dangling of the side of the building. (y/n) grabbed the weighted bag hanging from her belt by a thick, course rope. She untied the knot and pulled the top apart to look at the contents. A couple bottles of sparkling water, bread, cheese, an assortment of fruits and vegetables, and what looked like a cut of poked beef. She smiled to herself. Perfect. That should have been enough to support Maya.

Who?
Oh, It's sad Aladdin hit the bottom
He's become a one-man rise in crime
I'd blame parents except he hasn't got 'em

Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat
Tell you all about it when I got the time!


Our young miss stood up and retied the bag to the cracked leather belt holding her tattered trousers up. Next time, steal a few more pairs of clothing. Her _____-skinned legs bent low until (y/n) shot forward to the next roof, then the next, then the next. Soon, the red, white and yellow sparkles of artificial light passed her line of sight in a nanosecond. The air whistled in her ears and tangled her strands of hair.

One jump ahead of the slowpokes
One skip ahead of my doom
Next time gonna use a nom de plume
One jump ahead of the hitman
One hit ahead of the flock
I think I'll take a stroll around the block


(y/n) stopped at an old-looking office building that was crumbling in some places. She looked at the right side of the building. A window was ajar and a faint yellow glow emitted from inside. A soft, knowing smile pushed its way on to her lips as she slipped into the window. There, sat a tall girl with cocoa skin and gravity-defying hair tied with a yellow scarf. Her clothing was a pair of denim overalls, shorts, and a plain white t-shirt. Maya's dark brown eyes scanned over the page of her book, the title partially blocked by her long fingers. She was obviously too engrossed in the thing to even notice (y/n).

Stop, thief! Vandal! Outrage! Scandal!

Let's not be too hasty

Still I think he's rather tasty

Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat
Otherwise we'd get along

Wrong!


"Boo." (y/n) said casually. Maya shot up, let out a low scream, and threw the book at (y/n), who caught it with one hand. Maya placed a hand over her chest as she hyperventilated dramatically. "Holy shiitake mushrooms, you fudging scared me, monkeythumper!" She cursed. Almost. (y/n) giggled as she handed back the book. "What have I taught you about swearing?" she said.

"Nothing. Abso-flipping-lutey nothing."

Maya's eyes caught sight of the bag as the food stretched the bag out. "What'd you bring?" (y/n) untied the bag and handed it to the girl. Her eyes widened and her mouth began to salivate. "You can start, if you want." (y/n) as she picked up her knife (did I mention you have a knife?) and flipped it between her fingers. "No...no, I'll wait." Maya replied. (y/n) smiled as she patted Maya's hair. The girl got annoyed and batted her hand away, the muscle in her arm flexing as she did so. "You're messing up my poof!"

One jump ahead of the hoofbeats
(Vandal!)
One hop ahead of the hump
(Street rat!)
One trick ahead of disaster
(Scoundrel!)
They're quick, but I'm much faster
(Take that!)
Here goes, better throw my hand in
Wish me happy landin'
All I gotta do is jump


The two girls rested peacefully on the floor. Well, more like Maya rested peacefully on the floor. The girl had just turned thirteen, and she already snored like a bear. But that wasn't what kept (y/n) awake. Every night, (y/n) would ponder and think about how the two got into this situation. Two amateur thieves, fighting to survive. One strong, one fast, both with equal wits. They decided to team up. Best idea in the world so far. But Maya was growing into a young lady, and she needed more than just (y/n). The thief sighed, and shut (I wrote shit XD) her eyes.

Crash! (y/n) opened her eyes and shot up, Maya right behind. "Did you here that?" she whispered. (y/n) nodded and grabbed her knife. "Yeah." The thief made her way over to where the sound was. No one was there, but a desk had been knocked over. The girl kept her guard up, straining to hear anything. Gotcha. She turned and lunged, and a brawl began, both figures rolling on the floor. Papers flew everywhere as the each person tried to overpower the other. Eventually, (y/n) was able to straddle and pin down the assailant. Maya raced over with a flickering flashlight. (y/n) looked their assailant in the face. Her eyes widened.

"Hello (y/n). Long time, no see."

"Oh my God..."

TO BE CONTINUED...?
I got bored and started watching Hetalia. And then this fascinating idea came to mind.
Im not sure whose gonna be the first thief, but each country will have three or five chapters.

Maya is the thirteen year old version of me, only with a different name. And I wasn't a thief.
