Cruello De Vil, or by his real name, Esteban Miller, was raised by a pure and kind woman called Catherine Miller. Catherine tried her best to raise Esteban properly despite her lack of money, trying to make him a respectable and likable young man. But the other didn’t put much effort in. Not that he didn’t love his mother, he surely did. He was rebellious by nature, and restraining his liberty made him even more stubborn and defiant. His looks alone defied every stereotypes of the society.

He always had a burning passion for fashion. It obsessed him. His dream is to be a fashion designer for the Baroness Von Hellman. His half black, half white hair made a lot of his principals on the edge and he got expelled from different middle schools a lot of times. One day, his mother and him moved in… London.

Esteban felt like his dream was becoming truth. Especially when one day, his mother went to an important event organized by the Baroness herself. Catherine told him to stay in the car… but he couldn’t help himself. He snuck in the party, hiding under a tray of food with a cloth. He was in awe of all the different people, suits and dresses there.

When he managed to get out again, he saw his mother on the edge of a cliff… he heard a whistle and three dogs, three Dalmatians jumped on her, making her fall. He gasped in shock, the realization of what happened slowly sinking in. He ran away, ending un crying on the edge of a fontaine.

The next morning, he was woken up by two other kids observing him. One was tall and slim, the other shorter and a bit chubby. They had a dog with them. The shorter one said,

"Do you think he’s still alive ?"
