In the lair of the Brotherhood of the Blade, a young, lady
duck with blonde hair, sat quietly at a small table. The library, she had decided, was her favorite place to do her
work. Not many others came into the library, so it was always nice and quiet. It was the perfect place to plan
out her next heist or assassin attack. Not that she enjoyed killing, but to her, it was a job, and a well-paying job
at that.
On this particular day, she was plotting her next kill.
An anonymous duck had paid her to knock off Alexander DeL'eau, the billionaire owner of the DeL'eau Waterworks Company.
"Geesh," the girl thought to herself. "I figured this
guy had enemies. But, to actually be on someone's hit list?" She scratched her head, staring at a piece of paper
with writing on it. "For the amount they're paying me, they must really want him dead."
"Isabella!" a male voice suddenly echoed through the large
room.
Isabella rolled her eyes and looked up calmly, unaffected,
but a bit annoyed. "You bellowed, Quaid?" The older duck strolled over, frowning. "You do know this is a
library, right?" the girl continued.
"Yeah, but come on now. Who, here actually follows rules?"
Quaid challenged her.
"Good point," mumbled Bella.
"Hey, what's that?" Quaid asked Bella curiously, watching her
quickly shove papers into a folder.
"Nothing," she replied just as quick. "Just my next job."
Closing her folder, she looked back up at him, still looking a bit annoyed.
"Oh, well it's gonna have to wait." The elder gray, duck
stood with his arms folded. "I've got a more important job for you."
"It depeneds....Is it worth my while?" Isabella stared
him down. One way or another, she would mke him pay for disturbing her 'peace and quiet time'.
"I can make it worth your while," he grinned slyly.
"You dirty, old duck!" The look on her face said it all.
Quaid blinked his eyes wide/ "What?!" he exclaimed.
"That's not what I meant!" Then he through his hands up and sighed out of frustration. "You're gonna make me pay
you for this, aren't ya?"
"Yup." She looked him square in the face. "This
particular job's paying me good. You're gonna hafta pay double, if I'm to put it off for yours."
Her leader narrowed his eyes and growled slightly. He
thought he shouldn't have to pay her. "I practically raised her," Quaid reminded himself. Though, she was in a
rare mood today, so he decided he wasn't going to push her to her limit. Quaid stood there, staring at her and twitching.
"Fine," he quipped. There was just no other way around
it. He didn't dare ask anyone else to do it. Bella was the best, no doubt about it.
"Alright, what do you need me to do?" Bella folded her
arms, looking at him.
"Find and follow my son, T.J...."
"Okay...where do I start and why?" She looked at him
cautiously, yet she was a bit curious.
"On Earth and for personal reasons," the elder duck answered
her. One thing Quaid always managed to do, was keep his personal life and thieving life seperate.
"Whoa! Wait....Earth?!" Bella stepped back, hands
up. "No, I don't think so."
"And why not?"
"They've banned humans from Puckworld for a reason. Now
you want me to go where they thrive?!" she spat. To Bella, this was not a good idea. The more she thought about
it, the more she wanted to change her mind. "What's T.J doing there anyways? Has he lost his mind, like you?"
The gray duck stood frowning at her, displeased. "No,
he hasn't lost his mind, just his respect for his parents' wishes." He turned away, scratching his chin in thought.
"We think we know why he went there," Quaid paused, turning back to Bella. "Which is why I need you to follow him and
keep him out of trouble."
Bella sighed, unsure of what to do. "Alright, but if
I do this, you owe me BIG time."
"Yeah, yeah, I know," Quaid waved her off. "I figured
as much," he said and tossed her a bag of money. "Call it a 'down payment'."
The female duck caught the bag with ease and peeked inside
to make sure. "Deal," she replied, looking up at him. "Just one thing though, how do I get there?" She had
an unsettling feeling when she noticed her leader grinning broadly.
"My dear," Quaid started, "you forget I play a part in the
military. Don't worry, I can get you to Earth with little to no problems."
