Prologue – Vice Meets Noire Mounton Elitet

"Well, well, well… what brings the Elitet Radiata Captain of the Noire Mounton Brigade here? Noble scums like you usually stay inside the estate."

He let out an annoyed growl. "I need your help," he grumbled reluctantly.

"My help?" she nearly laughed. "The great Cross Ward needs my help?" she paused and then leaned forward over the makeshift table. Licking her lips, she lowered her voice. "How much?"

His face contorted in thought. "Eight-hundred dagols."

"I'm not cheap, rich boy," she answered dryly.

"Fine. One-thousand dagols," he snapped. She raised an eyebrow. "And promotion to Elitet status," he added reluctantly.

She smiled and let out a satisfied grunt. "Deal. Now then, what's the job?"

"Exploit and eliminate Jack Russell!" he ordered.

"Ooh… why the bitter tongue?" She leaned back thoughtfully.

"Need you ask?" he growled darkly.

A moment of silence passed until she nodded. "I'll take the job."

"You'd better. Either that or I'd have your head, Lily," he threatened.

"Jack Russell will be dead. You can count on it," the White Princess grinned.

A/N: This story is not canon, obviously, so I have a few things to iterate:

1. The Algandars disease does not exist anymore, however, the castle still does

2. In accordance with number 1, Cairn is still alive

3. This story takes place in an alternate universe to Radiata Stories. Albeit the characters are the same as well as the places, a different history has reigned upon the world

4. I have not misspelled the word 'Elitet'. I know you might think that it's supposed to be 'Elite'. 'Elitet' is my variation of the word 'Elite', but it is not the same. Therefore, it is not a typo

5. This is a long-term project that has the potential for a hiatus if I get overloaded (the same goes for all of my previous works)

6. In contrast to number 3, I have made modifications to Radiata. As it is a town/academy, the town is remodeled for this fanfic. -If you would like a map, I will upload one when I complete it.-

Thank you for your time. Read and review if desired. This is not my first fanfic, so criticism, flames and flying monkeys are allowed. :D This story is created to help me improve my abilities with writing suspense, so please help me by flaming me!
