Author's Note: Hey guys, NC here. So, I figured I'd do this since I don't think it's been done before. It's not my first crossover, but it's my first DISNEY crossover. So... I apologize if it's not what you expected of me. Regardless, here's the story.
WARNING: The following has been rated M for Mature due to death, foul language, and scenes not suited for anyone under the age of 18. Discretion is highly advised.

It was a normal day for Princess Sofia as she got ready for school. She was excited because Wassailia was right around the corner. However, it won't be the day she expected it to be. Inside the village, a young boy was chasing a thief and was cornered by the Enchancia Guard.
"Give it up," the boy said, "you won't be able to win. Return what you stole now, or suffer the consequences."
"Never." The thief said, pulling out a dagger. The boy drew a weapon of his own and aimed at the thief.
"I suggest you drop it." The boy said.
"Screw you." The thief said, charging at the boy.
"Have it your way." The boy said, shooting the thief in the head. The guards that were there sighed and the boy lowered his weapon, sighing.
"We'll let you leave," one of the guards said, "you won't be charged." The boy nodded and put his weapon away. He then left the scene and went back home. As he walked, he saw Princess Sofia and her class from Royal Prep. He stayed out of their path, but Princess Sofia noticed him immediately.
"Excuse me," she said, getting the boy's attention, "would you like to attend Royal Prep's first annual Wassalia Celebration?"
"I'll pass," the boy said, "I don't really celebrate Wassalia anymore. Thank you for the offer." He then kept walking, gaining the attention of Princess Sofia's entire class.
"What a gentlemanly way to turn down an offer." One of her classmates said.
"Yeah," her stepbrother, Prince James, said, "it's almost uncanny."
"Yeah," Princess Sofia said, "it is." The boy kept walking until he saw King Roland and Queen Miranda in his path.
'Great,' the boy thought, 'what do they want?' Princess Sofia looked at them and smiled.
"Hey Mom and Dad," she said, "what are you doing here?"
"There's a kid that's killing people on the loose," Kind Roland said, looking at me, "and he's on the suspect list."
"You're barking up the wrong tree, Your Majesty." The boy said.
"How so?" Queen Miranda asked.
"Because I'm looking for the guy as well," the boy said, "and I've come to realize something. He leaves a calling card behind at every scene, the Royal Crest of Hakalo. That means he's either a relative of the Royal Family of Hakalo, he works for them, or he's a member. Even if we found him, no one can charge him."
"Why is that?" Princess Sofia asked.
"Diplomatic immunity." King Roland said.
"What's that?" Prince James asked.
"It's a type of get-out-of-jail-free card for diplomats," the boy said, "and it's only given to those who are allies with another country. Hakalo is an ally of Enchancia, so those in the Royal Family of Hakalo, or those who work for them, can't be charged if they commit a crime in Enchancia. If they are, it's only because their immunity is revoked. If they are charged, and their immunity is intact, it'll create an international incident." Slow clapping was then heard and the boy looked behind him, glaring.
"Well done," the serial killer said, "absolutely well done. You got it all correct and you didn't even bat an eyelash."
"Who are you?" The boy asked.
"My name is Prince Ramon," the killer said, "future husband to Princess Lani of Hakalo."
"You've been taking advantage of your immunity," King Roland said, "haven't you?"
"I have," Prince Ramon said, "and it all started with that brat's parents. They uncovered the truth of why I'm marrying Princess Lani. I'm actually here to look for a wedding ring for her."
"It's because of the apple," the boy asked, "isn't it?" Prince Ramon looked at the boy in shock.
"How did you-?" Prince Ramon asked.
"I took over their research," the boy said, interrupting him, "and I know that's not the only one you're after. You're searching for the other pieces, aren't you?" Prince Ramon glared.
"You know too much." He said.
"You know too little." The boy said. Prince Ramon then ran at the boy, only to be met with a gun barrel in his face.
"What the?! When did you get this?!" Prince Ramon asked.
"It was my father's." The boy said. Prince Ramon backed up and Princess Lani showed up.
"Lani!" Princess Sofia said.
"Not now, Sofia." Princess Lani said.
"Lani," Prince Ramon said, "my sweetheart. Why are you here?"
"I heard about the murders and came to help," Princess Lani said, "but to think it was my fiance who was the murderer. That was unexpected."
"Nothing is True," the boy said, "Everything is Permitted. That's the Creed I live by ever since my parents were murdered by you." Princess Lani gasped and looked at me.
"That's the Creed of the Assassin's Brotherhood," she said, "but you can't be a member."
"I was born into the Brotherhood," the boy said, "because my parents were members." Prince Ramon gasped and looked at the boy in fear. Prince James looked at me.
"You're an assassin?" He asked.
"Not one that kills for fun," Princess Lani said, "but one that kills for humanity's free will. That means!"
"Your fiance is a Templar." The boy said. Prince Ramon charged at the boy, drawing a knife. Princess Lani gasped and looked at the boy.
"Shoot him," she said, "everyone will understand. Shoot him so he doesn't succeed." The boy glared and aimed.
"I planned on it." He said. The boy then shot once and Prince Ramon fell down, a bullet hole in between his eyes. The boy walked to him and knelt down. Princess Sofia ran to King Roland and Queen Miranda, crying.
"It's okay, Sofia." King Roland said.
"I bring no joy in taking lives," the boy said, "but I do so for mankind and its free will. May your soul be cleansed of sin, and may you find eternal peace and happiness in the afterlife. Requiescat in Pace." He then closed Prince Ramon's eyes and sighed. Prince James walked up to the boy and knelt down next to him.
"That couldn't have been easy." Prince James said.
"It wasn't," the boy said, "I try to avoid violence. However, no matter how hard I try, it always ends up the same." That got Princess Sofia's attention, causing her to look at the boy.
"You've killed before?" She asked.
"In self-defense," the boy said, "you can even ask the Village Guard. I've helped them numerous times, and they help me in return. I catch a criminal for them, they pay me. I help them with their files, they give me information on my parents' research. I give them information on gangs, they let me be part of the raid. According to most sorcerers, it's called 'Equivalent Exchange,' or something along those lines."
"Equivalent exchange?" Princess Amber, Prince James' and Princess Sofia's sister, asked.
"It's a term used in an ancient science called 'alchemy' from what I've gathered," the boy said, "and it's pretty heavy stuff. According to the Law of Equivalent Exchange, something must be given that's equal to what's being asked. To me it's just a bunch of nonsense that can't be explained in words, and has to be shown in actions. Like turning lead into gold, or water into wine. It's older than Enchancia's history."
"So," King Roland said, "you've been assisting the Village Guard with lowering crime. In exchange for that, they're giving you valuable things you can use to help stop people like Prince Ramon."
"They're called Templars," the boy said, "and I'm not the only one. There's someone else in the fight. A man by the name of Edward Kenway. Although his motives are different, he's for the same cause as I am. However, I need to look for someone close to him to help me find him. A relative or an acquaintance."
"Isn't Edward Kenway a notorious pirate?" Prince James asked.
"Like I said," the boy said, "his motives are different. He doesn't trust the Royal Navy, but he might trust another Assassin."
"The three tenants." Princess Lani said.
"Precisely." The boy said.
"We should talk about this privately." King Roland said. The boy looked at him and nodded.
"Agreed."
