March 4th, 30 Kms Away from Rio Grande City…
(BADUMP BADUMP)
Guerra...Guerra...Tu eres Guerra…(WAR...WAR...YOU ARE WAR…)
Uriel opens his eyes, he breathes heavily as he looks at the sky; “Where am I?” Tiwa leans down and says; “You’re awake now…”
On a giant rock, Tiwa sits there with Uriel’s head leaning on her thighs. Tiwa smiles at first, but later blushes and avoids looking at him; “Good you’re awake, now get off my thighs…”
Uriel sits up and looks around; “What a mess...Where is Calakmul?”
“He’s over there...muchacho, that was a splendid move, it reminds me of the times Juan used to fight alongside me…” Coyote says as he leans in the rock, he puts his eyepatch back on and he lights another cigarette:
“Well...I need to finish my job...I’ll be right back…”
“Hey wait...are you going to kill him?” Tiwa asks Coyote; “That’s a dumb question señorita…” Coyote continues to walk.
“WWWAIIITT…” Tiwa tries to stop him. Uriel puts his hand on her shoulder and shakes his head; “Let him go...Tiwa...it’s for the best…”
Coyote approaches Calakmul. Calakmul lies on the ground, his robe was torn apart meaning that he is naked in the upper body. Calakmul breathes slowly, he looks at the sky slowly turning blue and says:
“The blue sky...so bright...the Morning sun...so warm...am I really dying? Why? God Kukulkan said that I would live forever...why?”
“The answer is really simple my friend...in this reality...no one, and I mean no one can live forever...that includes me...you know, I am also immortal...but one day I will also have to die…” Coyote stands next to Calakmul, he continues smoking, Calakmul looks surprised and asks:
“Were you cursed as well?”
“You’re correct, I was cursed by the White Witch...now I can’t die…”
“Aren’t you glad? You will live forever, unlike me...my body doesn’t respond..why is that?”
“Of course not...having to see your loved ones die and you can’t follow them? That’s hell itself...the reason why you were defeated, was because El Charro Negro is a being that lives between worlds, in other words, the dead can kill the living…”
“I see…Well, unlike you, I don’t have anyone to love...” Calakmul chuckles, Coyote finishes his cigarette; “That’s so sad...I guess, the worst part about this job is seeing hopeless idiots like you die…”
Coyote prepares his pistol and points at the Calakmul head; “The bullet that I have was made by “Death” itself, it’s purpose is to kill immortal beings, when my time comes, I will also use this bullet on me…”
“I understand...go on...kill me…”
“Goodbye...Partner…”
(BBBBAAANNNGGG)
As the morning sun shines...the life of the Last King of the Mayans came to an end...his arrogance and pride caused him to be cursed by Kukulkan...His thirst for Vengeance led him to almost destroy the region...even after all that...King Calakmul...died in peace...
***************************************************************************
Tiwa and Uriel look at Coyote ending Calakmul’s life. Coyote grabs a bandana and wraps the Gem of Kukulkan in it to avoid touching it directly. He also covers the face of Calakmul with part of his robe as sign of respect.
Tiwa takes a deep breath and sits down once again; “ I guess...it’s over…”
“Yeahh…” Uriel replies as he looks at the birds flying in the blue sky, Tiwa looks at Uriel and asks; “Is that what the sense of Vengeance causes people to do? The way he looked…”

“That’s what vengeance is...it’s poison to the soul...the day we met...I told you these words...remember?”
“Yes you did...but Uriel, you want vengeance too right?”
“No...I want Justice...Darius Lucifugus needs to be brought into justice…”
“Hahaha...muchacho, you are too weak to do that…'' Coyote laughs as he approaches Uriel and Tiwa. Tiwa glares at him; “YOU…”
Coyote looks at Tiwa and asks; “You’re from the Ysleta tribe right?”
“Yeah, so what of it…” Tiwa replies in a rude manner. Coyote takes his hat off; “I’m sorry for killing you and your tribe...believe when I say, it wasn’t personal...I was just following orders from the Government of the Both Countries…”
“Liar…” Tiwa screams as she does not believe his words. Coyote continues to explain; “It’s true...the government wanted to get rid of the tribes because they pose a threat to their plans. The tribes were powerful and had mana on their side…”
Tiwa looks surprised on what Coyote says;“Both countries paid me a lot of money to get rid of the tribes that pose a threat...for that, I needed the help of another man...Nemesio Santacruz...El Charro Negro…”
“Nemesio Santacruz?” Uriel looks at Coyote surprised, Coyote lights another cigarette; “That’s right...Santacruz was Juan’s predecessor...he helped me destroy the tribes that pose a threat to the governments…”
Tiwa begins to cry and asks; “But why? Why did we pose a threat to them, we were peaceful people...we even helped others in times of need…”
“You’re correct, but the governments are being controlled…”
“Controlled? By who?”
“I’m sorry, I can’t tell you...all I can say is that there are people who are even more powerful than Gods...and they are the ones running the show…”
Uriel and Tiwa are frozen upon hearing those words. Coyote takes out something from his pocket; “I remember killing a young girl who always had this with her…”
Tiwa opens her eyes widely, she slowly extends her hand and grabs a red ribbon in the shape that has a drawing of a flower. Tiwa begins to cry; “That ribbon was mine...it was given to me by my mother…”
“I know...that night...after I killed you, I decided to keep it as I told you before…”
Tiwa remembers Coyote’s words; “Young girl. it’s a shame but I will have to kill you...don’t worry, you will revive someday…”
Coyote looks at Tiwa; “I never forgot what I said, I knew I would see you again...too bad it took more than 100 years…I may be a bounty hunter but I am also a human being...”
Tiwa cries and falls into her knees; “I don’t know what to think, when my soul awaken, I was filled with rage and wanted revenge against El Charro Negro and Sundance “Coyote” Bill...but they helped me and we ended up fighting together...what do I do now?”
Coyote chuckles; “Little girl...if you want to keep hating me, then go ahead...I am not the person who should tell you this but try to start over. There is nothing bad in starting over and over...as long as you live there is always a second chance...take it from me...I even ended up in Japan once...so keep that in mind…”
Coyote walks away; “Muchacho, remember what I said...in order to defeat Darius, you must awaken those powers of yours...Darius is trying to collect the Seven Golden Keys...if he acquires the seven keys, then this world will end...remember that…”

Uriel stands up and replies; “I have so many questions but I doubt you will answer them... I will seek Justice for my late father and to do so...I will kill Darius Lucifugus…”
“Good luck with that muchacho...the next time we meet...we will have duel...Be prepared…”
Coyote slowly disappears from Uriel and Tiwa’s sight.
Tiwa looks at Calakmul’s body slowly decaying. Uriel looks at Tiwa and says; “Let’s go back…”
“Wait...before we go, I have something to say…”
“What is it?”
Tiwa takes a few steps in front of Uriel; “All this time, I have nothing but one purpose...to seek vengeance...to avenge my tribe from what you did...to destroy El Charro Negro and Coyote...but now, Coyote apologized and I learned the truth, and you are not El Charro Negro who destoryed my tribe...my soul is in peace…”
“I already told you that...thousands of times…” Uriel sighs with his eyes closed. “So that means you are going to disappear?” Uriel asks Tiwa scratching his hair. Tiwa gets mad: “NO YOU IDIOT...DON’T INTERRUPT ME…”
Tiwa clears her throat and continues speaking; “I think I will start once again...you know that I also had the objective to find the golden keys, like the one that Alejandro has...there are seven in total scattered all over the continent…”
“You too...why are you fixated on getting the golden keys?”
“It is said that the seven keys will grant you a power compared to a God...others say that it will open the gates of the underworld...I myself thought that the keys would help me bring the Ysleta tribe back to life…”
“And do you still believe that would've happened?”
“To be honest...I don’t know...but, I made my decision…” Tiwa turns around and stretches her arm with her hand in the form of a fist; “I...Tiwa de Ysleta...decided to make you my friend…”
“Your friend?”
“That’s right...you are the person who I can depend on from now on...what do you say? Will you be my friend?” Tiwa asks Uriel. Uriel remembers when Alejandro said the same thing. Uriel chuckles; “You and Alejandro are weird people, you know that? However...I don’t know why...but I like people like you?”
“And just what do you mean by that?”
Uriel grabs her hand, Tiwa notices, she changes the fist into a handshake, Uriel agrees by saying; “I accept, Tiwa de Ysleta, from now on...you and me are friends...I will trust that you will cover my back and I will protect yours…”
Tiwa blushes and avoids looking at him; “O-O-Okay...then it’s settled...I will do what you tell me to as your friend…”
“Right…”
“So...my friend...what is your next goal?”
Uriel changes his expression to a confident one; “Well...now that I learned that Darius is after the Seven Golden Keys...we must stop him from obtaining them…”
“Really? Do you know where the other keys are?”
“No idea…”
“Seriously!!!”
“However, we already know who has one and we must protect him...right?”
“Alejandro Sanchez”
“Exactly...but for now...let’s head back…” Uriel opens the portal, suddenly, he feels weak and he is about to fall.
“I got you…” Tiwa prevents carrying him with her shoulders, Uriel smiles and says; “Thank you…”
“That’s what friends are for…” Tiwa and Uriel slowly cross the portal making their way into Rio Grande City.
**************************************************************************
Rio Grande City Cathedral
In Rio Grande City people began to come out of the temples and churches...they celebrated because they survived that darkest night...The Bishop ordered Father Clemente and the other priests to erase everyone's memories...
More than one hundred priests make a circle in the center of the cathedral. The circle has a triangle and a cross in the middle that cover all of the circle. The priests begin to chant:
“EN EL NOMBRE DEL SEÑOR...HAZ QUE TUS HIJOS E HIJAS OLVIDEN A LOS DEMONIOS Y TRAERLES PAZ A SUS CORAZONES...AMEN” (IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD...MAKES YOU SONS AND DAUGHTERS TO FORGIVE ABOUT THE DEMONS AND BRING THEM PEACE IN THEIR SOULS...AMEN)
(CCCHHHIIIINNNNGGG)
A golden ray shines to the sky, the sky darkens for an instant as golden drops fall into the sky. With the golden drops, people begin to forget about the attack last night. The memories of the Sombras were erased, and people believe that it was just another earthquake .
After the ritual ended, Father Clemente, who was among the people who were in the ritual, walked down the hall of the cathedral. Suddenly he hears a voice of someone calling him; “Father Clemente, do you have a moment of your time?”
The one calling him is the Bishop of Rio Grande City. At the courtyard of the Cathedral, Father Clemente and Bishop Adrian look at the birds as he throws seeds towards them.
“Father Clemente, I asked you to come because I have an important matter to discuss regarding El Charro Negro…”
“Yes, Bishop, what is it that you like to discuss?”
“I wanted to know what has been his situation with you...when he came two months ago, I told you that he could stay at your Ministry because you asked for it...naturally, the priests and monks are afraid that he would lose control...The Cardinal of the country already knows the situation...he tolds us to stay alert…”
Father Clemente looks at the birds and replies; “I know that the church is against me giving him a place to stay and that is normal, I mean...he is…”
“Stop...you shouldn’t say that outloud…”
“Right...sorry, he is what he is...but he is also a teenager who likes to watch television, goes to school and has friends...he is not a monster that needs to be feared…”
“Father Clemente, aren't you getting too attached to him? That situation also worries me…”
“You do not need to worry, I am fully aware of my responsibility as a member of the church. I may be retired, but I am still a member of the Order of the Holy Cross...However, how can I be cold to someone who risked his life and saved my daughters from the Chupacabras…”
The Bishop chuckles; “You got a point...eventhough the others think it’s a bad idea and that we should arrest the Charro Negro...I will continue to support your idea, and I pray to God that someday, we will find peace in this city…”
Father Clemente stands up and begins to walk away; “His name is Uriel Di Fiore...don’t forget, he is still a young man...and don’t worry, if he ever loses control, I will be the one who will put him to rest…”
***************************************************************************
At the same time...Ministry of San Juan
At the same time, in the Ministry of San Juan, the spell that erases memories also fell towards that region, however, only those who have weak manna fell under the effects of the memory loss...the others, still remember…
A red portal opens, Uriel and Tiwa slowly come out of the portal, Tiwa is helping Uriel walk as he lost too much manna.
“It appears everyone is okay…” Tiwa whispers to Uriel as they both look around. Suddenly, Victoria runs towards them screaming:
“UURRRIIIEEELLL!”
(PPUUUMMM)
Victoria quickly hugs Uriel, pushing him away from Tiwa. Uriel looks surprised as he thinks; “Uriel, you’re okay...I’m so glad...thank goodness…”
Victoria continues hugging Uriel, Tiwa gets jealous and pulls Uriel’s arm saying:
“Hey, my friend is injured here...could you please give him some space…”
“Your friend?” Victoria makes a challenging stare at Tiwa; “Well, he will be my new boyfriend, so I have the right to be by his side…”
Victoria hugs his arm, Tiwa also hugs his arm, both of them glare at each other with anger. Fabiola comes out of the ministry and sees the girls close to Uriel:
“NO FAIR, I WANTED TO HUG HIM!”
“Sister, you need to be more quick about it…” Abril makes fun of Fabiola, Daniel walks outside with the Chuco Clan:
“My Big Brother doesn’t change at all…”
“Jefe, your brother is so lucky, having two hot babes fighting for him…” Apá and the rest of the Chuco Clan nod in agreement as they cry out “blood” feeling jealous.
“Thank God...Uriel is okay...right, Maria?” Carolina says with tears on her, Maria agrees saying:
“My son is strong...but I wouldn’t want Valerie to see this...otherwise she…”
“BBBIIGGG BBBRRROOOTTHHHERRR!” Maria and Sister Carolina get nervous, Uriel hears Valerie’s voice, he turns a little and sees Valerie running towards him worried.
Valerie notices Tiwa and Victoria grabbing his arms, she gets mad and screams; “BIG BROTHER!”
(PPPUUUMMM)
“AAHH” Valerie tackles Uriel from the back causing to roll with her towards the walls of the Ministry; “Ouch, Valerie, what’s the big idea…”
Valerie hugs Uriel; “Big Brother, I’m glad you’re okay...I was so worried when I didn’t felt your mana...I came running as fast as I could when they open the International Bridges...I’m glad that everyone is safe...Waaahhh”
Valerie cries while hugging Uriel, Uriel pats her head and makes a little smile; “It’s okay...everyone is okay…”
Tiwa and Victoria are surprised as they both think; “HE CAN SMILE?”
“You missed all the fun...Big Sister…” Daniel says as he walks towards Valerie. Valerie immediately runs and hugs Daniel as well; “Daniel, I was so worried...little brother...wwaahhh…”
“Apá, that's Jefe's sister...she is also a hottie…” Chuy says to Apá who is making a fake smile; “Yeah...Jefe is so cool…” and thinks; “I’m so jealous…”
Uriel stands up and goes to where Victoria is; “Victoria, you learn about my identity right?”
“Yes...I know that you are El Charro Negro…”
“Then what do you think of me now…”
Victoria looks at him and smiles; “It doesn’t change a thing, I think I fell in love with you...if you let me...I want to be with you, I don’t care if you are the devil himself…”
“HHHUUUHHHH….” Everyone is in shock. Uriel smiles at her and hugs her; “Thank you...You know, I think I understand that feeling, and I might begin to feel the same about you...but...I’m sorry…”
Uriel puts his hand on the back of Victoria’s head and chants; “Memoria Perdida…”(Lost Memory)
“Uriel, what are you…” Victoria slowly loses consciousness. Uriel carries her as he says; “It’s best for you, to forget about this...we will have to return to normal…”
“What have you done to her?” Officer Rodriguez runs towards Uriel. Uriel hands the unconscious Victoria to him as he says; “I erased her memory about me and about what happened last night...I think it’s better that way…”
“Uriel, are you going to erase mine as well?” Officer Rodriguez asks Uriel, Uriel extends his hand, Flor quickly steps forward; “Wait Uriel…”
“You’re a member of Yggdrasil right?”
“That’s right...I am Flor Gutierrz, an Upper Trunk...I think you shouldn’t erase his memories because he can be useful in the future…” Flor says as he looks at a surprised Officer, she blushes and avoids looking at him.
Uriel sighs with his eyes closed and says; “I wasn’t planning to...Officer Rodriguez, this all happened because the major is working alongside Darius Lucifugus...I will let you keep your memories for two things…”
“Two things” Flor and the Officer look at Uriel; “The first is that I want you to be a spy for me...You are the chief of the police which means you interact with Nathaniel Gonzalez, I want you figure out his plans and slowly give me the information...The reason is that he and Darius are plotting something more dangerous than what happened tonight…”
“I understand, what about the second?”
“The second is...to keep Victoria away from me...I began to take interest on her and I don’t her to get hurt even more than what she has suffered...I am El Charro Negro...I am an evil spirit afterall...please...I want you to help with that…”
Officer Rodriguez extends his hand; “Uriel, you may say that you are evil but I think you are a good person...I promise I will do that...I will keep her safe…” Officer Rodriguez and Uriel shake hands.
Uriel looks at Flor; “Report this to Kasumi...she will be pleased…”
“O-O-Okay...but Uriel...something happened that I must tell you…” Flor tries to tell Uriel something Uriel stops her; “No...sorry, but I must do something more...please excuse me…”
“Okay...I guess, it’s better if Kasumi-Senpai tell you…” Officer Rodriguez and Flor begin to walk away together.
Uriel walks towards Daniel; “So brother, are you going to erase the memories of the Chuco Clan?”
“WWWHHHAAATTT?” The Chuco Clan is surprised upon hearing those words. Daniel chuckles; “I’m afraid so…it’s dangerous if they get involved with this so…”
“WWAAIIITT” Apá screams to Daniel. Daniel and Uriel look at the Chuco Clan standing in front of them.
“Jefe, we know that you will erase our memories about this...in fact, we want you to do it…”
“Really?”
“Yeah, I will have nightmares from now on…” Tito chuckles, Bofo also smiles; “He’s right, we want to forget about this…”
“That’s right Jefe...I want to continue sleeping all day…” Chuy says as he yawns. Apá nods in agreement and says:
“We want to forget about this night and everything about those demons...however, we still want to serve under you...Jefe…”
Daniel opens his eyes wider; “What do you mean? You know I manipulated everything so that you could follow me…”
“We know but we don’t care...Jefe, on these two days, we had so much fun and we feel that we have improved as people as well...Jefe…” The Chuco Clan asks Daniel:
“Please let us continue being your subordinates…”
Daniel looks surprised, Uriel chuckles and begins to walk towards the Ministry; “Well brother, it looks like you found yourself some good people...you found yourself some friends…”
Daniel looks away embarrassed as he says; “You idiot...they are my followers..”
Uriel walks straight at the doors of the Ministry and asks Sister Carolina; “How is the girl? Is she alright?”
“She is...she is in the guest room with Naomi and Mariana…”
“Good, come with me...I have a favor to ask you…”
***************************************************************************
“Where am I? What happened to me?” Estrella slowly opens her eyes, she looks around and sees Naomi sitting next to her.
Naomi with tears in her eyes smiles; “Estrella, you’re awake…”
“Naomi, you’re alive…” Estrella cries as she immediately stands up and hugs Naomi; “Thank God, I thought you died...I saw you bleeding...I’m so glad that you are alive…I thought I was alone again”
“Don’t be silly...I am here because I am your friend...you are not alone anymore…”
“Don’t move, or you’ll open your wounds. “ Mariana says as she holds Estrella tightly.
“Naomi, who is she?” Naomi’s father asks Naomi. Naomi looks at her father; “She is my friend Estrella…”
“I see…”
“Father, I have a request…” Naomi stands up and looks at her father’s eyes; “I want Estrella to come live with me…”
“Naomi, don’t be absurd...we don’t have room for another girl...plus…” Naomi’s mother says feeling angry, however, she is stopped by her husband.
“Naomi, why do you want to bring her home...you know nothing of her, she is a stranger…”
“You’re wrong...she knows me more than you two do...and I know her…” Naomi replies feeling confident, Estrella and Mariana look at Naomi acting brave.
“Watch your tone, I am your father…”
“You may be, but...you have never taken interest in me, you and mother have always thought that I was crazy for seeing those ghosts, and last night, you saw that they were real...I just wanted someone to hear me...and Estrella, Estrella was always there for me…”
Her parents see each other, Naomi’s father sighs; “Listen Naomi, I know that your mother and I haven’t been around lately, and to be honest we thought that you only had a rebel side by saying all these ghost stories...the truth is, we still care for you...and we would do anything to make you happy…”
Naomi’s mother walks forward; “So if you want to have that girl with you...then we won’t say no....”
“Really?”
“Yes, dear...we want our daughter to be happy…” Her parents smile at her. Suddenly, two hands touch their heads; “I’m afraid that won’t be possible…”
“Memoria Perdida” (Lost Memory)
Uriel erases Naomi’s parents memories and makes them fall asleep. Naomi looks nervous; “Why did you do that?”
“Uriel, why did you erase their memories?” Mariana asks concerned. Uriel enters the room and replies; “Because, I can’t permit you to take her away from here…” Uriel looks at Estrella and asks:
“How are you feeling?”
Estrella remembers the time they were inside the Giant Sombra; “I’m alright...you told me that I would never be alone again, and yet you don’t want me going with my friend?”
“I’m afraid so...Estrella, your power is dangerous, if you don’t control it, you will end up hurting your friend and her family…”
Estrella opens her eyes wider; “So, I can’t be around anyone?”
“I never said that…” Uriel walks towards her and puts his hand on her head; “I’m telling you to live here with us...you will be part of the Ministry and you will never be alone again…”
Estrella looks in shock and feels calm in her heart. Naomi looks down, Mariana commentss; “Don’t worry, you can come here anytime to visit her…”
“Really?”
“Of course…”
Uriel looks at Naomi; “Naomi, I’m afraid I will need to erase your memories as well…”
“Why?”
“You knowing about this girl’s power puts you and your family in danger, it’s better if you just forget about it…”
Estrella lowers her head feeling sad. Uriel puts his hand on Naomi’s head; “Don’t worry, I will only erase the bad parts, you will still remember Estrella as your friend…”
“Really? Then, I can still come to visit her…”
“Yes you can…”
Naomi looks at Estrella and says; “Don’t forget that I am your friend…” Estrella with tears in her eyes smiles for the first time; “Good bye, my friend…”
Uriel proceeds in erasing her memories, Naomi falls unconscious. Uriel looks at Mariana and makes a little smile; “You were very brave last night...I’m glad that you are maturing along with your sisters…”
Mariana looks down; “But it wasn’t enough, I wasn’t able to protect anyone…”
Estrella looks at Uriel; “Uriel...will I be able to live a normal life someday?”
“Yes you will…” Sister Carolina steps into the room, she looks at Estrella and smiles; “Estrella was it? You will be able to live on with us...from now on, you will never be alone…” Sister Carolina hugs Estrella, Estrella cries out of happiness.
Uriel tells Mariana to go outside. Both of them leave the room.
Mariana walks with Uriel and asks; “Uriel, what motivates you to be strong?”
Uriel smiles a little; “I can’t tell you that, because I won’t meet your expectations...but...my friend told me this once; He said he wanted to be strong in order to protect those he cherish...I think that is something that you wanted to hear right?”
Mariana nods in agreement; “I want to be strong so I can protect my sisters and everyone in the Ministry, including you…”
Uriel pats her head saying; “That’s really mature of you.”
(PPOOFFF)
Mariana gets red and “smoke” comes out of her head. “AHEM, SINCE WHEN ARE YOU TWO CLOSE?” Fabiola asks, feeling angry. Abril runs towards Mariana asking; “How is Estrella, is she okay?”
“She is...in fact, she will be our new sister…”
“WWHHHAATTTT?” Abril and Fabiola speak at the same time.
Uriel sighs thinking; “Mariana, if only you knew that my reason for being stronger is to kill that man”
Fabiola looks at Daniel and runs to his side; “Daniel…”
“What is it?”
“I checked Naomi’s injury…”
“So…”
“I saw something weird...that injury that provoked Estrella wasn’t from a Sombra...it seemed more like a ray…”
“And what are you getting at?”
“Daniel, please don’t tell me that you purposely injured Naomi…”
“It had to be done in order to lure out the mastermind of all this…”
Fabiola is in shock, Daniel continues walking to his room; “Daniel, are you that heartless?”
“Think what you want...but...everything worked out, didn't it…”
Daniel walks to his room as he thinks; “Sometimes, one must dirty his hands in order to do something good…”
Everything calmed down, Tiwa returned to her home...After Father Clemente returned, he was given the news that Estrella was joining the Ministry...He happily accepted and adopted her, thus giving birth to...Estrella Rossi…”
***************************************************************************
Sun City; Mayor’s Office
Later that evening, in the Mayor Office...Darius Lucifugus and Nathaniel Gonzalez had a conversation…
“Hahaha...I’m telling you, there is no better beer than the one that they serve downtown Darius…” Nathaniel says as he drinks from a mug of beer.
“You seem very happy Nathaniel...despite your city almost being destroyed by a Giant Sombra…”
“Ah come one, everything worked out...I will give them some money and make the repairs later...no sweat…”
“You sure are weird fellow...anyway, I want your son to go to Brazil to investigate the Golden City in two months time...don’t forget that…”
“I know I know...let me drink in peace…” Nathaniel drinks one more time; “Now that is life...I’m going to the club later tonight...want to come?”
“No...I have to meet with someone…”
“Are you talking about the weird bounty hunter...man that guy is just a bluff...I mean I can’t believe you hired someone like him…” Nathaniel bursts into laughter. -CLICK- Without warning, Coyote appears in a suit and puts his pistol onto Nathaniel’s forehead.
“Careful partner, such strong words for someone who just ran away last night and abandoned his city...If I want I can put this bullet between your eyes....”
Nathaniel is frozen with fear, Darius chuckles; “Don’t do that Coyote, he’s still useful...Nathaniel get out of here now…”
“R-R-Right…” Nathaniel stands up and walks out of the office, glaring at Coyote. Coyote puts away his pistol; “Why do you keep him alive? He’s just an idiot…”
“I know that, but he is a useful puppet.” Darius chuckles, he offers a glass of wine to Coyote, Coyote accepts and sits down on a chair in front of Darius’ desk.
Coyote takes out the Gem of Kukulkan and puts it on Darius’ desk; “Mission Accomplished…”
“Excellent...I can always count on you...Coyote…” Darius smiles as he grabs the Gem; “Your payment was already sent to your account...I sent a little extra for taking back the Gem…”
“No problem...now Darius, why did you let the Gem be stolen?”
“Good Question, perhaps I wanted to know what the last king of the Mayans was capable off…”
“Something so simple right?”
“I am a simple man after all...so...how is Roberto’s son doing...is he becoming more powerful?”
“Yes he is...he might become strong enough to defeat you Darius…”
Darius laughs as he walks towards the window to see the city; “You know that is great news...I want to kill Roberto’s legacy in a fair battle. Right now, if we were to fight, I would just kill him in an instant…”
“I know, that’s why I warned him about going up against you…”
“You did good in telling him that…”
“I know… so Darius, is there anything else that you need from me?”
“For the moment, I don't, however, I will pay you in advance to hunt someone, that person will come to you in the near future, so be prepared to greet him in your town…” Darius hands over a wanted poster to Coyote, Coyote sees the picture and laughs:
“Now this is interesting, I was already planning on hunting him down…”
Coyote stands up and prepares to leave, Darius makes another question; “Hey Coyote...are you still looking for a place to die?”
“That I am...but, there is someone who I can’t leave alone right now...I must first see her safe…”
At that moment, a beautiful girl with blonde hair with curls, a doll like dress and blue eyes enters the office running and hugs Coyote; “GRANDPA GRANDPA”
Coyote smiles; “Cassidy, my child...did you have fun yesterday?”
“I did Grandpa...Anastasia is a really good person…” Cassidy replies with a smile. Anastasia enters the room and bows her head:
“I have returned, Master Darius.”
“You did a great job, Anastasia...please return to your student duties...you are dismissed…” A portal opens behind her; “As you wish…” Anastasia enters the portal.
Coyote carries Cassidy and begins to leave; “I’ll be taking my leave...until next time, Darius…”
Coyote walks with Cassidy as he smiles pampering her. Darius chuckles; “Everyone has a witness...and the Greatest Bounty Hunter’s weakness is her…”
***************************************************************************
March 5th; Ministry of San Juan
A day has passed...the sun begins to shine in a new morning...The Ministry of San Juan begins its day…
“Hurry up Daniel...or we are going to be late…” Fabiola says as they eat breakfast. Daniel calmly eats his breakfast and turns to see Fabiola:
“Sheesh you’re annoying already...it’s early morning you know…”
“What did you say?”
“You two look more like siblings when you do that, you know that?” Sister Carolina says as she walks past them.
“NO WE DON’T” Both of them reply at the same time. Uriel enters the dining, he is wearing his school uniform:
“Good morning…”
“Hey Big Brother, I see that you won’t ditch school today…”
“I see that you are actually continuing school…”
“Well, I got bored being here, so might as well…” Daniel and Uriel chuckle and fistbump as a greeting. Fabiola looks at them jealous thinking:
“I wish I could do the same with him…”
“Uriel, are you feeling well?” Mariana asks Uriel, Uriel nods in agreement as he sits down and eats his breakfast.
“Mariana, you sure have gained confidence in two days huh…” Abril teases with her. Mariana blushes and says; “Well...I try…”
Valerie enters the dining hall:
“GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!”
“Good morning...you see as high spirits as usual…” Uriel says to Valerie; “Well of course because I want to present you the new member of the family; TAA-DAA”
Estrella walks in, she now has cut her up to her shoulders and fixed. She is wearing the school uniform. She shyly enters the dining hall and says:
“G-G-Good morning…”
“Good morning, Estrella...you look beautiful…” Mariana says with a smile, Abril quickly runs and hugs her:
“Wow, you look really nice...you did an excellent job Valerie…”
“Of course, I needed to make her the prettiest…”
Fabiola stands up and goes to Estrella, she pulls her hand and says:
“Come here, your breakfast will get cold…”
“O-O-Okay…”
Fabiola sits Estrella next to her. Fabiola smiles at her as she says; “You need to eat up okay...my new sister has to be strong and healthy…”
Estrella smiles at her and replies; “OKAY!” Estrella eats with joy, everyone smiles and enjoys the peaceful moment.
After breakfast, everyone leaves for school. Daniel goes to school along with the four girls. Uriel goes in the other direction with Valerie. Daniel’s group walks down the street as they hear:
“Hey Jefe…”
Daniel stops and sees the Chuco Clan. The Chuco Clan walks to his side; “ Jefe, we need you to check our homeworks please…”
Daniel sihs with his eyes closed and replies; “Okay, I will help you out but don’t call me Jefe…”
“Right Jefe…”
As they arrive at school, Flor walks towards the girls; “Hello, you must be Estrella...it’s a pleasure, my name is Ms. Gutierrez, if you need any help please let me know…”
Estrella nervously replies; “Y-Y-Yes, it 's a pleasure…”
“WWOOWW, SHE’S SO WHITE...WHAT A BEAUTY!”
Estrella rapidly gains the attention of the boys, Fabiola quickly steps forward; “Please leave my sister alone…”
Daniel, who walks from afar, chuckles; “She really is her Big Sister…”
“Daniel, is this going to be okay?” Flor asks Daniel, Daniel nods in agreement; “Of course, by having her with us, she will be at peace…besides…”
Daniel begins to walk to the classrooms as he says:
“The power of the Shadow Tamer will be needed in the future...I can feel it…”

Sun City International Highschool
After crossing the bridge, Uriel and Valerie walk to school…
Valerie walks, humming out of happiness, Uriel notices that and asks; “You’re looking really happy today…”
“Well, it’s because my Big Brother is finally coming back to school...I missed you so much…”
“I see...well, at least you’re okay…”
Valerie smiles at Uriel. Suddenly, her smile stops as she hears someone calling Uriel; “UUURRRIIEELLL!”
Uriel turns to see Victoria running and hugging his arm; “Good morning…”
“Good morning…” Uriel replies, Valerie is in shock and says; “Hey, why are you so clingy with my brother…”
“Well...your brother and I have an unfinished date...too bad the earthquake interrupted it…”
Valerie looks at Uriel asking; “I thought you erased her memories about the events the other day?”
“I did, but everything related to the Sombras, but nothing from the date…”
“Sheesh brother, you gigolo…”
Uriel walks with Victoria hugging his arm. Valerie walks alongside angry. At that moment, someone else appears and hugs the other arm; “Hey, what are you doing with my friend?”
Tiwa says as he pulls Uriel’s arm. Victoria makes a fake smile; “Well...I have the right, I’m her friend too…”
“I am more her friend than you…”
“No...I am…”
Victoria and Tiwa stare at each other, Uriel sighs with his eyes closed and begins to walk; “We’re going to be late, hurry up…”
“Right…”
As they walk, Victoria says; “Aww man, I have a student council meeting...the new president is a real slave driver…”
“New President?” Uriel asks Victoria, Valerie looks down as she says; “Yes, he is very strict…”
They arrive at the entrance, they walk to the entrance as students begin to say; “Hey...it’s the president...make way…”
Uriel and Tiwa turn to see who it was. Tiwa opens her eyes wider as she sees a young man with brownish hair and orange colored eyes. Following him is Anastasia who has a bunch of papers with her.
“It can’t be…” Tiwa says surprised, Uriel turns around to face the new president. The new president with a serious face, he slowly walks past Uriel and Tiwa. The New President continues walking without even looking at them. Uriel with a serious expression doesn’t move either.
The Student Council President continues walking and enters the school building; “Anastasia, please give me the documents for the meeting…”
“Yes sir, here they are…”
Uriel and Tiwa are in shock as Tiwa says in a low tone; “Alejandro…”
The New Student Council President is...Alejandro Sanchez…

8 92Wet world wonderland.
A young girl of 16 years dies by drowning, and is reincarnated as a living Puddle of Water.Through many fantastical fun filled and wacky adventures our Protagonist will lead a better life than her last.Thank you for your time. Something I want to add, is that this story is written in first person, and I plan to carry on with it for a LONG time.-(Maybe thousands of chapters in size, until the story literally runs out of any potential to keep going.) So yes, there's still a lot of mystery and build up I have planned for future adventures. Wet World Wonderland is a story primarily concerned with the depth and complexity of its world and characters. So forgive me if something seems off, or isn't made immediately clear. I would love to talk, but try and consider that I might have something planned.(Not that you can't still criticize, of course. If you've got an opinion on something, I'd love to hear it.) If you plan on rating WWW, please read until chapter 20. WWW isn't the kind of story you can start judging from the first five chapters. Although, I admit I'm not so sure if 20 chapters in is good enough to judge it either, but I would still advise reading to at least that point. Also, if you have a problem with something in the story, please PM me, and I would love to talk about it. As of 1/19/2021 I have just added WWW's (Wet World Wonderland's) New Cover-Art. I know it's a bit weird, and probably sudden. And with all things considered, it may never make sense. But canonically with lore and info that has, or will be revealed in coming chapters, you might be able to put something together. Anyways, I hope you like it. Also, new symbol, at the top left of the image, hope you all like that too.As of 5/16/2022 the revised cover art for WWW has been uploaded, same as before with the first cover art. I hope you like it. Cover Art Credit goes to Itreallyisyaboi. They're on Instragram.
