January 20th, Lucifugus Mansion
The sun has set, the moon shines down the Borderland. Located near the mountains there is an exclusive street where the leaders of the Twin cities live. Giant mansions with the best cars. At the end of the street there is a huge mansion where the mayor resides.
In the dining hall, the Lucifugus family is having dinner:
"Father, why is the new student in the same class as me?" Aleister exclaims.
Darius chuckles and replies:
"Well my son, I didn't know it would matter to you…"
"It does matter, that guy is dangerous, he has a powerful mana…"
"I agree with our son dear...the student named Uriel Di Fiore is similar to Roberto Vazquez, do they have any connections?"
"You guessed it dear, that boy is Roberto's son, the one who almost killed me 5 years ago…" Darius says as he drinks a glass of wine.
"So he is the son of that man...and that makes me…" Olivia gets angry and begins to release mana, breaking all the glass in the table.
"Come down dear, there is no need to get all worked up, besides you can't kill him yet...I need him for my plans and I want Aleister to make him an ally instead of an enemy.”
Olivia stops releasing mana and says; "I'm sorry, I got a little carried away…"
"Foolish mother, try to be careful next time, I got soaked in water…"
Aleister lifts his hand and calls his maid:
"Anastasia, would you mind cleaning this up…"
A beautiful young maid enters the dining room and vows her head:
"Yes master, I'll do it right away…"
"Thank you Anastasia"
Anastasia Lucifugus is a beautiful girl who is about 15 years old. She has black hair with bangs on her forehead. Reddish eyes, pale skin making her look like a doll. She has a slim body. She goes to the same school as Aleister.
Anastasia finishes cleaning, Olivia grabs a chair and says:
"Anastasia dear, come here and eat dinner with us…"
"I'm sorry, I am not worthy of eating in your presence." Anastasia vows her head.
"Nonsense, this is an order from me...so please sit down…"
Anastasia without any expression sits down, and Olivia gives her a plate.
Anastasia was adopted by the Lucifugus Family when she was only 5 years old. Since then, she's been Aleister's personal maid. Olivia sees her as her own daughter and part of the family.
"Now then, everyone, I have an announcement to make…" Aleister says to everyone, everyone looks at him as he continues to speak:
“After the end of the school year, I’ve decided to make Marjorie my bride...”
Anastasia looks surprised, Olivia has a discomforted look. Darius laughs:
“Splendid, she looks like a fine girl...”
“I disagree, Aleister you must think this through, she is a mixed blood, you must marry someone worthy for you..”
“I understand your concern but I’ve already made my choice...”
“But...”
“Mother, that’s enough” Aleister raises his mana causing her to shake and lean back. Darius continues to laugh as he says:
“Aleister calm down, you already have my approval...Besides, I think you have to marry young because that’s the way to preserve mana to the purest when having an offspring.”
“Thank you father, I appreciate your support...”
“I think...” Anastasia tries to say something, Aleister looks at Anastasia. She gets really nervous and doesn’t say a word.
“Did you have something to say, Anastasia?”
“No master, I’m sorry...” Anastasia lowers her head with a sad expression.

“Then it’s settled, Marjorie will be my bride...and starting tomorrow things will change at school, my way...”
“WE ARE ENLIGHTENED!!!”
*************************************************************************
At the same time that the Lucifugus were having dinner. In the rural part of the city, another event was happening…
(GGGGGYYYYAAHHHH)
The neighbors hear the scream of a young girl, however, everyone is afraid to look outside.
(RRRRAAAAWWWW)
The girl runs as fast as she can trying to escape. She runs down the street towards a park.
Behind her, a being that runs in four legs chases her. The beast has dark black skin, with red color patterns in the shape of circles. The beast has the body of a coyote with the face of a bull.
(RRRRAAAWWW)
"Help me...someone…"
The girl hides in the children's playground, she puts her hand on her mouth trying not to make a sound.
She only hears the monster's steps passing next to her.She hears them going away, the girl relaxes however, the monster's grabs her.
"NNNNNNNN OOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
A loud scream is heard and then silence. The monster begins to walk away leaving the girl on the ground. She doesn't have bruises or blood coming out. However she is in verge of death because all of her manna was drained.
Humans need manna in order to leave, if the manna is gone, they have only a couple of minutes to replenish it, otherwise they'll die.
As the monster walks away in search of another prey, a strange sound catches its attention.
(PUM PUM PUM)
The sound of a drum resounds the area,followed by the sound of flute as it plays a coordinated melody.
The monster looks towards the direction of the moon and sees a silhouette of a girl walking towards his direction.
The girl is about 16 years old, she has brown skin, long straight blonde hair and purple eyes. She has a slim body. She is wearing the uniform of the same High school as Alejandro and has Native headband with a rhombus pattern on her forehead.
She walks playing the flute in harmony with the drum sound. She stops playing and begins to say:
"Sing, dance, o great beast as I, Tiwa de Ysleta will purify your soul…"
(RRRR AAAWWW)
The monster attacks Tiwa, Tiwa dodges every strike as she moves forward dancing at the beat of the drum. Slowly she gathers manna on her hands and creates claws.
(SSSLLLAAASSHHH)
Tiwa defeats the monster with ease, she takes a deep breath and ends the song. She walks straight at the girl and begins to play her flute.
The girl gets cured as the sound replenishes her manna. Tiwa stops playing and begins to walk away.
“That was easy...”
“Splendid as always Ms. Tiwa...” An owl flies down to her shoulder.
“Suma, don’t flatter me, it’s kind of annoying...anyway, don't you think there has been many Sombras attacking lately?”
Suma is a spirit owl that acts as Tiwa’s guardian. He can speak as a normal human being, he is invincible to the normal person. He is brown with green eyes and golden claws.
“You’re right, I have been detecting so many abnormalities lately...”
“Mistress Tiwa, you should go to your house now, otherwise you’re going to be late for school tomorrow...” A serpent slitters next to her, the serpent is holding a drum.
“I know, I know Jana, I’m heading there now...”
“Very well my Mistress, Suma, please keep watch on her...”
“Yes ma’am...” Suma lifts his wings in agreement as Jana disappears . Tiwa sighs,

"What’s wrong Tiwa?”
“Nothing, it’s just that I need to pick a club in two days but I don't know where to join.”
“How about the SIS, I mean you follow that guy like a stalker, why not ask him directly...”
“I am not a stalker, it’s just that he has some strange manna, that’s all...” Tiwa blushes, avoiding looking at Suma. Suma chuckles...
“Anyway, let’s hurry....”
“Right” Suma disappears and makes two wings appear in Tiwa’s back, Tiwa flies at great speed. A few meters away, Uriel observes how she flies away as he thinks:
“So, it appears this region is very special...I must keep my guard up...”
*************************************************************************
January 21st; Sun City International High school
Another normal day of school, it’s morning and the students walk peacefully towards their daily classes without noticing the monsters named “Sombras” attacking the cities at night. Everything looks fine, however, things are about to change with a sudden turn of events:
“ALEISTER!”
Alejandro screams as he walks towards the student council room. He has a piece of paper in his hand that he holds with force. The other students look at him as he walks with anger.
“Look,isn’t that the weirdo? Why is he heading towards Aleister?I want to see...”
Uriel is walking down the hallway as he watches Alejandro pass right beside him. He keeps looking at him and decides to see what happened.
Alejandro sees Aleister who is coming out of the Student Council room.
"ALEISTER!" Alejandro comes closer, Aleister act as normal and asks:
"Alejandro please, no shouting in the hallway…"
"Cut the crap...why did you do this?"
Alejandro shows a paper that was in the SIS room that says:
Notice:
Due to the insufficient members, the club known as the Supernatural Investigation Society is considered terminated…
signed by:
Student Council President
Aleister Lucifugus
"Why are you terminating our club, we have three members, this isn't right…"
"Oh, didn't Marjorie tell you that she is quitting the club?"
Alejandro is left in shock, he grabs the paper tightly and exclaims:
"THAT'S A LIE!!"
"Oh is it? Alejandro, let's be honest here...Marjorie was only there because she feels petty on you…"
-TCH- Alejandro walks forward and grabs Aleister's shirt neck.
"The SIS is just a waste of school fundings, and it has no value over our prestigious school...am I right?"
"You bastard, you made her do this with those words...what did you tell her?"
"I didn't tell her anything Alejandro, she decided on her own free will…"
Aleister chuckles; "Alejandro, you must accept that Marjorie chose me and not you...you must stop believing that you have a chance with her because you don't. .."
"You liar, Marjorie is only my friend, you did this because you were jealous that we spent time together…"
Aleister chuckles, he gets closer to Alejandro and talks in his ear.
"Why would I be jealous of a loser who spends his time chasing after imaginary things…"
"......" Alejandro is speechless as Aleister continues to speak:
"I know that you love Marjorie, but know this, she could never love someone like you...you're just an immature kid...remember that she chose me….and that's why you are all alone..."
(PUUUUUMM)
"Damn you, you son of a bitch!"
Alejandro punches Aleister's face. Aleister falls to the ground, this leaves everyone with their mouths open.
Aleister bleeds from his mouth. Uriel and Tiwa who are watching from different points are also surprised at what Alejandro did.
"ALEISTER!!" Marjorie runs directly towards Aleister.
"Are you alright?"
" Yes, I'm fine…" Aleister acts like he is severely hurt. Marjorie turns to see Alejandro.
"Alejandro, why did you punch him?"
"Marjorie I…"
Aleister interrupts Alejandro.
"I can explain, you see he got mad at me because I told him you were leaving his club and that the SIS was going to be disbanded…"
"You damn liar..." Alejandro charges once again. Marjorie steps forward with her arms extended.
"That's enough, please you're scaring me…"
Alejandro comes to his senses and notices everyone glaring at him and seeing him with disapproval .
"Marjorie…" Alejandro lowers his head.
“Please just stop...” Marjorie with tears in her eyes asks once again:
"Please Alejandro."
Suddenly, the principal Olivia Lucifugus appears behind him:
“Mr. Sanchez, please step into my office, immediately...”
Alejandro leaves with Olivia to her office. Marjorie sees Aleister who smiles at her saying:
“I’m alright don’t worry...”
She looks at Alejandro with a worried expression thinking; “Alejandro, what happened to you...”
“That guy has guts...Excellent...” Uriel walks away as well with a smile on his face.
*************************************************************************
The attack on Aleister brought consequences to Alejandro, first he was suspended for a week due to assaulting the president of the Student council. Second, the Supernatural Investigation Society was terminated thanks to the lack of members. Third, Alejandro now has a negative record costing him the loss of his scholarship...
As for Alejandro himself, he still has another issue to deal with....
Alejandro walks slowly towards the exit, he has a suspension form as everyone looks at him with hate.
“Alejandro...” Kasumi stands in front of him. They speak at her classroom, Kasumi looks at him disappointed saying:
“What happened Alejandro? Why did you punch Aleister?”
Alejandro avoids looking at her and doesn’t respond. Kasumi sighs with her eyes close:
“Look, you should be thankful you didn’t get expelled, I had to convince Principal Lucifugus to keep you here because you are a genius...”
“I’m sorry, I know I did wrong but he...”
“Stop Alejandro, there is no excuse for violence... you will go pick up your stuff in the SIS room and you will head home.”
Kasumi gives him a sheet of paper; “Here is a copy of the work, I will stop by and give you work everyday so you won't fall behind...”
“Thank you teacher...I’m sorry for causing you trouble...”
Alejandro grabs his bag and walks to his clubroom.
As he walks by, Alejandro thinks about Aleister’s words:
"I know that you love Marjorie, but know this, she could never love someone like you...you're just an immature kid...remember that she chose me….and that's why you are all alone..."
Alejandro shakes his head and thinks; “No, he is lying, and I’m going to prove it, I’ll ask her directly...”
Alejandro passes by a classroom and hears a familiar voice:
“You got it wrong..”
Alejandro carefully takes a look and sees Marjorie with two other classmates. Behind Alejandro, hiding behind the wall of a hallway is Tiwa who was spying on him.
“That’s Marjorie, but what is she talking about...”
One of the girls says; “Marjorie, why do you talk to the weirdo, he punched your boyfriend...you should avoid him...”
“Yeah, like, he is an obsessive person, you should totally ditch him...” The other girl says to Marjorie, Majorie shakes her head and replies:
“You got it wrong, he is a good guy... And we’ve been friends for a long time...”
“Tell us the truth...do you like Alejandro?”
Alejandro’s heart skips a beat as he wants to hear Marjorie’s answer.
Marjorie holds her arm and lowers he head:
“To be honest...No...I don’t like him...I just wanted him to be happy...”
“So you don’t like him...so why?”
“I guess I felt petty...he always seemed so lonely and that’s why I....I always wanted everyone to be happy...Alejandro is someone special to me...but it’s just that...I like him as a friend but nothing else....”
The two girls stare with their eyes wide open; “Uh-Oh”
Marjorie notices that someone is standing in the door. She turns around and sees Alejandro. He stands there looking down:
“So, you only pitied me...”
“No, wait Alejandro, you got it wrong...”
Alejandro runs away with tears in his eyes. Marjorie goes after him; “ALEJANDRO WAIT....”
The girls in the classroom fall unconscious as Aleister appears from the shadows:
“Good job, my puppets...”
Alejandro arrives at the club room, Marjorie is right behind him.
"Alejandro, wait, you got it all wrong…"
"No I don't, I am not stupid...I really thought you were my friend…"
"But I am….it's just that…"
"Stop it...stop lying please….you and the others think I'm crazy...only because I want to know what happened 5 years ago...what happened to our friend Uriel…”
Alejandro grabs his chest; "You think I don't have feelings? Well I do and it hurts to learn the damn truth, that the person I thought of as my only friend only takes pity on me…"
Marjorie is left speechless, Alejandro continues to speak:
"Oh, I bet Aleister and you planned all of it…"
"What?"
"That's right, I bet you two decided that it was fun to play with me...to make me believe that you were my friend...he did it right...he did all of this because he has always hated me…you think that he wants to be my friend?"
"Alejandro…." Marjorie begins to get angry.
"His lackies always beat me up under his orders because I talk to you….don't you think it's strange that I always have bandages? I bet you're also enjoying this...that's right, you and Aleister are…"
(SSLLLAAPPP)
Marjorie slaps Alejandro with force causing him to fall on his back. He looks up and notices Marjorie with tears in her eyes, she has an angry expression and begins to speak:
"Just shut up, you don't know anything about Aleister or me...he's a kind person, he would never do that….you know why you don't have any friends?"
Marjorie points at Alejandro; "Because you're a selfish person...you don't care what others think and you blame others for your mistakes...Aleister always wanted to be friends with you but you never gave him a chance."
Marjorie continues to speak:
"You're so selfish that all you can think about is the supernatural stuff, I tried to understand why but this isn't right...something is wrong with you...you are too hung up in the past…"
Marjorie sheds tears; "Alejandro forget about the past, forget about Uriel...can't you see that you are hurting people like Victoria who lost both of her parents that night...we want to forget...please just come with me and apologize to Aleister…"
Marjorie extends her hand and smiles; "Come now Alejandro, I know that you will be happy with us, just take my hand."
Alejandro stands up and refuses to grab Marjorie's hand:
"I see that you've chosen Aleister, I'd rather be alone than be with someone who wants me dead...I guess this is goodbye. So long Marjorie, we will continue seeing each other in school but you are no longer my friend, in fact, you never were…"
Marjorie lowers her hand and sees Alejandro avoiding her eyes, she lowers her head and turns around.
"Alejandro, you are the only one who is blind.I didn't want to believe Aleister at first but now I see that he was right...Goodbye…"
Marjorie walks away, Alejandro cries as he feels that he lost a part of his life. He enters the room and sees Raul who is packing.
"Wow, that was intense Alejandro."
"Where are you going?"
"I'm done here, the only reason I was here was because I needed a club to be part of...now the Student Council President invited me to be the historian of the student council...and I accepted…"
"So you're joining Aleister as well huh...you traitor, just leave now, you are no longer my friend either.."
Raul grabs his bag and walks to the door, as he passes next to Alejandro he says:
"You're mistaking our relationship, the truth is...we were never friends to begin with…"
Raul leaves, shutting the door. Alejandro, feeling betrayed and with rage, begins to throw stuff around. He destroys the posters and rips the papers as he screams:
"DDDAAAAMMMMNNNN IIIIITTTTT"
Marjorie walks by wiping away the tears off her eyes, she doesn’t look where she is going and bumps into a girl.
“Oh, I’m sorry, I wasn’t looking...”
Marjorie sees that the girl she bumps into was Tiwa. She tries to be friendly:
“Oh, Tiwa was it? I have you for Chemistry right? I...”
“Marjorie Bellerose, I must warn you, the only one who is blind is you...I pity those who choose to be blinded by the truth...”
“Wait, what are you talking about?”
Tiwa begins to walk away as she answers; “That innocent act and that naive personality will one day be your demise...”
Marjorie is left standing not knowing what happened, she begins to walk away once again thinking about Tiwa’s words.
Aleister wearing a bandaid on his cheek walks towards Marjorie, she runs and hugs him:
“You were right all along, sorry for doubting you...”
“It’s okay dear, you know I will always be there for you...”
Aleister hugs her tightly, Marjorie has a calm expression and Alesiter has a sinister smile on his face:
“Come on, let’s go eat something...”
Alejandro is sitting in a corner, the sun is setting as he looks at the clock; “It’s almost time for my shift...I better...”
Alejandro looks at the newspaper that says:
“La Bestia ataca de nuevo...” (The Beast attacks again...)
“That’s right, I almost forgot my mission...I decided to investigate the attacks on Rio Grande City...”
Alejandro becomes optimistic once again and runs towards the door.
(PUUUMM)
Alejandro runs towards his job as he screams:
“I WON’T GIVE UP..”
The door closes and Tiwa is on the other side. She was squished the moment Alejandro ran. Tiwa rubs her nose as she says:
“Ouch, that idiot, I was going to talk to him...”
“HAHAHAHA THAT WAS HILARIOUS” Suma the owl laughs at Tiwa, Tiwa begins to strangle him.
“What’s so funny, you stupid chicken...”
“N-n-nothing, I’m sorry...”
Tiwa sighs with her eyes closed; “Now what?I was going to join the club but he got suspended...”
Tiwa begins to walk away; “Maybe next time...”
Tiwa looks at the room that is a disaster, she begins to pick everything up.
“Man this is a disaster but I need a club, so might as well clean...”
Tiwa cleans the room with the help of her spirits. Kasumi is looking at her without Tiwa noticing she smiles and thinks:
“Alejandro, maybe there are people who are as crazy as you in the world...”
*************************************************************************
Rio Grande City…
Rio Grande City, the other half of the twin cities, is the northern border of Mexico. A city rich in history and tradition who shares close relationships with Sun City.
Two hours later, it's around 6 in the afternoon and the sun is beginning to set. Uriel walks in the streets of Rio Grande City.
Uriel walks along the North Eastern part of the city, this sector is quite humble and some of the buildings are old and rusty.
"Oh wow, this place sure looks familiar. I can't remember quite well but I think I used to come here every weekend…"
Uriel takes out a piece of paper that has the address:
0726 Calle La Fe (La Fe Street)
"My mother told me that when I arrived in the Borderland, I should visit this place...I wonder why…"
As Uriel walks down the street he notices that there is no one outside. He notices people are inside their houses looking from their windows.
“That’s strange, I know it’s cold but it isn’t freezing...besides this city has some sinister mana, almost as sinister as mine...”
Uriel leaves the residential area and heads uphill, at the top of a hill, the oldest church stands, the church is surrounded by a forcefield. The church has several buildings aside from the church itself.
There is a sign that says:
“Ministerio de San Juan” (Ministry of San Juan)
“There is someone outside, sister...he looks scary...”
A girl wearing a nun’s attire says to another one with blonde hair. The girl stands up from her bed and begins to run saying:
“Leave this to me....”
“Wait sister....”
Uriel stands outside the church. He notices the forcefield and says:
“This is a weak forcefield, with just one touch I could....”
“Hold it right there....”
Uriel senses something heading his way, he dodges it with ease.
(BBBBBOOOMMMM)
A small dust cloud is formed, Uriel notices that the object is a white lance. The lance begins to move and returns to the owner’s hand.
Uriel looks up and sees a girl wearing a nun’s attire consisting of a long skirt and a veil on her head. The girl jumps down screaming:
“INTRUDERS ARE NOT WELCOME!”
(PPPPPUUUMMM)
The girl slips and falls on her back.
“Ouch, that hurt!”
The girl rubs her lower back. She has blonde hair and dark blue eyes. Uriel sighs; “Sorry, but I don’t have time to play around...”
-TCH-The girl swings her lance at Uriel but he dodges it with ease.
“I TOLD YOU, YOU ARE NOT WELCOME...I, FABIOLA WILL STOP...”
Fabiola notices that Uriel disappears from her sight.
“Where did he...”
“Too slow...”
Uriel pokes her forehead. Fabiola gets angry and begins to attack him with multiple attempts.
Uriel dodges them in an easy way. Fabiola tries to hit him,but fails and jumps back. Fabiola smiles and screams:
“ABRIL, MARIANA, NOW DO IT!”
Uriel lands in a circle, he notices two girls from opposite directions pulling a chain. The chain wraps Uriel tightly.
“This chain has a spell on it, to weaken me...”
“WE DID IT!” The girls scream with excitement, Fabiola points her lance at him and says:
“You are bound by a holy spell that weakens the evil beings like you...Your mana is weak but sinister, now give up and let yourself get purified...”
“Impressive, you girls are really trained, this chain could kill a Sombra”
“That’s right, and now it will defeat you...” Fabiola says with a confident expression.
Uriel smiles; “Well, too bad for you...”
Uriel releases a small amount of mana in the shape of red aura destroying parts of the chain.
(GGGGYYYAAHHHHH)
He pulls the chain and uses it to wrap the two girls up.
“Sorry, but I am not a Sombra or a demon...”
“How could this be...” Fabiola has a face full of uncertainty.The girls are tied up with the chain, Uriel pats one of them saying:
“That was a good job but next time, try to focus mana on your feet okay...”
“DON’T MAKE FUN OF US” Fabiola charges manna on her lance and chants:
“Florece, Lanza de Santa Ines" ( Bloom, Lance of Saint Ines)
The lance releases a pink aura, Fabiola jumps in the air and throws the lance directly at Uriel.
“Watch out mister...” The girls scream at Uriel.
Uriel turns around and catches the lance with his right hand, causing wind to blow. He caught the lance with no effort at all.
“No way...” Fabiola looks surprise, Uriel walks towards her and hands the lance over to her.Fabiola is confused,Uriel pats her head and says:
“That was a powerful technique, it reminds me of my mother’s lance”
“Your mother?”
“What’s the meaning of this...” A nun comes out of the ministry, a priest also comes out and sees Uriel.
“It can’t be...you’re Uriel...” The priest says with tears in his eyes. The nun sees him and with a surprise expression she asks:
“Uriel? You mean Maria’s son...”
Uriel looks at both of them and presents himself:
“It’s a pleasure to meet you, I am Uriel Di Fiore...”
*************************************************************************
Sun City; Kasumi’s Apartment
The sun is setting, and Kasumi Miyazono decided to take a shower after her school day. As she her shower, Kasumi begins to think:
“I can’t believe that he is alive, but according to Shion, he isn’t the same person.”
Kasumi lowers her head and remembers her master, she looks up and makes a fist saying:
“I know it’s him, and if he is alive maybe the Master is alive as well...I must ask him directly...yeah, that’s what I’m going to do...”
(RRRRRIIIIIINNNNNNGGGGGGG)
Her phone begins to ring. She turns off the shower and as she tries to get out of her tub. Kasumi is very clumsy without her glasses. She takes a false step and falls.
(BBBBOOOOOOMMM)
“Ouch! Where are my glasses!” She begins to scream.
She reaches the sink and gets them. She runs with only her towel to answer the phone: “Hello”
“What’s going on, Kasumi? Did you fall from the shower again?"
A man on the phone says. Kasumi’s face then turns red of embarrassment as she answers:
“N-N-No! What do you need Carter”
“Oh nothing, I just wanted to know what you were wearing.” Carter says to Kasumi , “smoke” begins to come out of her head as she answer:
“That’s none of your concern” This makes Carter laugh and replies:
“I bet you’re just wearing a towel eh.”
Kasumi gets into her knees of embarrassment and replies:
“N-N-No”
“Anyway back to business, you have a date tonight with a monster, so put on your best attire, Kasumi.”
The man named Carter tells Kasumi making her put a serious face and replies:
“It’s tonight; well it’s time to stop that monster.”
“Good luck and stay focused.”
The man on the phone hangs. Kasumi puts her glasses on and looks at the mirror. She looks at her arm where a symbol also appears.
The symbol is glowing orange, it has a small circle and two curved lines surrounding the forearm. Kasumi thinks to herself:
“I’m ready.”
(KNOCK KNOCK)
“Who is it?”
Kasumi opens the door and a robust woman enters crying:
“Kasumi, it’s terrible...”
“Rosa-san,what happened”
Rosa gives her a note from Alejandro that says:
“Rosa, I went to Rio Grande City, I’ll be back in the morning...”
“Don’t tell me he is going to search for the monster...” Kasumi hurries ad dresses up, she begins to run as Rosa screams:
“Please bring him back Kasumi-dear....”
*************************************************************************
Rio Grande City…
In a restaurant located near the Northern part of Rio Grande City...
Alejandro finished eating a torta de bistec (Steak Torta):
“Gracias por la comida señor….” (Thank for the food mister)
“Cuidate niño, los monstruos aparecen de noche” (Take care kid, monster appear at night) The owner says as he waves at Alejandro.
Alejandro walks down the street. He has his camera as cell phone ready as he says:
“Now then, time to get some proof and clean the name of the SIS...”
Alejandro heads towards the Northwest of the city with excitement.
At the top of the highest building there is a figure of a man who has a white skeleton mask, a black robe, and white gloves. The man says:
“It’s time for the hunt to begin.”
He takes out a whistle and blows it, a sound appeared however that sound was impossible for humans to hear. Suddenly in the mountains a wing beast begins to roar.
(RAAAAAWWWWW)
The beast extends its wings and begins to fly towards the Rio Grande City , it heads in the direction of the man with the skeleton mask.

Collective Thinking
Dyna Graves grew up thinking she was special. An exception to the average. Not necessarily above her peers, but simply outside their context. However, toward the end of her high school life, she started to realize that nobody was really special. At least not in any fantastical way. Just as she started trying to figure out what she wanted to do with the rest of her life, she got an invitation. A psychic institute scoped her out, realized her psychic potential, and asked if she would undergo psionic training at the Carroll Institute. Almost immediately, Dyna realized that she wasn’t quite up to the same level as many of her peers. Surrounded by clairvoyants and mind readers displaying obvious abilities made her own lack of ability all the more apparent. That was, up until the researchers and scientists of the facility realized that there was a bit more to Dyna Graves than met the eye. After an explosive incident during what should have been a routine experiment, Dyna quickly found herself wrapped up in a world of cutthroat espionage.
