Alex and Nero was kneeling in front of a man in a uniform who had a snake on his shoulder. The snake said "you two understand your mission" Alex said "yes we are to find those who have guardians and either turn or capture them" The snake smiled and said "good, and if they resist?" Alex paused and then said "to kill them" 
The man then cut the snake off from continuing and said "remember the first two first."
Alex said "yes sir" then Alex and Nero both left the room of the general. The General shook his head and looked at the snake "you really like making him sweat" The snake responded "That boy is one of the best we got, but his honor may get in the way of his mission." The snake smiled and said "I wanted to make sure he knew what he was doing"
Alex and Nero arrived at the edge of the woods where a soldier was standing there with his Guardain which was a owl on his shoulder. The soldier saluted and said "Corrine and her team are checking this sight now."
Alex said "I'll go south then."
The soldier looked at Alex confused "south sir?, that puts a sector between you and Corrine's team."
Alex said "yes but I'll be up wind of the strays which will push them to move towards Corrines team."
The soldier said "Ok sir, I'll just stay here and keep watch."
Alex nodded and then walked south and began scouting in the south section of the woods.
