It was a quiet night in the small town. Translucent clouds obscured the small sliver of moon, only allowing meager pale light to shine upon the silent streets. Suddenly, a hoard of rodents scurried out from a shadow's building. Emerging from among the rats, a cloaked figure hurriedly scanned the empty street before stumbling towards a large building at the end of the street. The figure looked up at the building and hesitated. Pulling down the hood of the cloak, a woman with brown hair was revealed. Looking into her arms, she whispered something to the bundle she carried. Then the woman walked into the side alley of the building and put her bundle down in front of a door. She knew that the bundle would be found in the morning when the owner of the building opened the door at exactly six o'clock expecting a milk delivery. For a week, the woman had observed the owner. He was very punctual—never early, never late. She knew her bundle would be taken care of well by this man. Also, Kaoru's husband and children where in this town, too. Her child would be safe here. The woman tucked a slip of paper into the bundle's wrappings before kissing the bundle and whispering a few words. Then without a sound, she disappeared.
The bundle moved slightly on the dirt of the alley. If one looked, one would see a small face among the cloth wrappings. The paper waved in the small breeze. The last whispered words of the woman lingered in the chilly night air.
"I'm sorry…"
"…Mikan."
AN: Hey everyone! I realized the other day that there are no Western Gakuen Alice fics. So I decided to create one! This is my first ever fanfiction, so please give me constructive criticism so I can improve my writing. I'm also looking for a beta reader. Anyone interested?
Thanks for reading this super short prologue!
Oh! Almost forgot the...
