Hi guys! So, this story is a collaboration between alliedawnmarie03 and MariaLuvsYew. We're not going to say who writes which chapter. It will be on both of our accounts, so I don't want any reviews to either of us accusing one of us of copying the other. Anyways, here's the prologue. Review and tell us what you think.
Prologue.
A heavy gathering of clouds filled the sky as a man shuffled quietly down a dark alley way, his fair, blonde hair slicked back to reveal a handsome, yet menacing, face. His hands were tucked into his coat pockets, and he walked quickly, continuously looking back and forth and all around him. He was nervous.
He finally settled in the darkest corner he could find, and stared wistfully up at the sky, waiting for something. Or, someone. Heavy footsteps sounded down the alley and the man's gaze traveled hurriedly to the combat boots that the sound came from. His eyes slowly traveled up and up until they settled on the newcomer's face.
A wicked smile grew, contorting his features in the dim light until he appeared to be what he truly was; a monster. The monster stepped forward eagerly to greet the new, young man. "You're a lot younger than I thought, kid." He took note of the man's wild, brown hair and tight, tan skin. The man didn't say a word to the monster, but just stared at him.
"Ah, well, hopefully I made the right decision by choosing you. How much are you asking for?" Monster got the hint and rambled on, backing away a step or so from the handsome young man.
"It's 500,000 or nothing." His voice was quiet, but it rung clear and loud through the compact alleyway.
"Are you sure that's right? I mean…" The monster slowly trailed off under the heated glare of the young man.
"500,000. Or. Nothing." He snapped, stepping dangerously closer, so that the Monster fell backwards into the dumpster, fumbling hurriedly in his pocket. He brought out a big, thick, tan envelope, and tossed it to the young man who was currently towering over him.
The man carefully counted the many green bills inside of it, and gave a satisfied nod, "I'll be there Friday to pick her up. Make sure she's ready."
