January 19th- Sun City Major Hall
Two days ago, a strange phenomenon shook the entire continent. Powerful rays of golden lights illuminated the skies of the American continent. These lights caused panic among the civilians, with some even saying that it was the end of the world.
The lights caused an uproar among the shadows and soon powerful organizations began to make their move.
At the Sun City Major Hall, the mayor, Darius Lucifugus is having a private meeting, it’s 5pm, meaning that schools and work are over for the day.
“Just as you said sir, the lights that appeared two days, were actually the golden keys themselves.”
Darius says to the monitor, on the monitor, there is a person, however his appearance is shadowed.
Darius Lucifugus is a middle aged man. He has pale white skin, no hair, a lock beard and always wears sunglasses. He is the Major of Sun City and the Boderland’s most richest man. He is a calm person who likes the elegant life and that’s why he always wears an expensive suit.
“Excellent, do you have the locations of the lights?”
“Indeed, and one of them is here at Sun City, however it is not clear where it originated...”
“ I see.. well then, I leave the searching to you, remember that your mission is collect the Golden keys, Darius”
“I understand, leave it to me...”
“We are Enlightened...”
Darius ends his meeting and the person in the hologram disappears
-TCH- Darius looks at the window with a furious face as he thinks to himself:
“One day I swear I will have the power to kill you....Third...”
“Excuse me...Major, your son is here to see you...” A secretary says to Darius.
“Excellent, let him pass...”

Aleister enters the office with his school uniform; “You wanted to speak to me father?”
“That’s right my son, you see today, someone powerful is arriving”
“Someone powerful? Who is it's father?”
“A mythical being which is said to be the devil on earth, he might be more powerful than you...”
Aleister chuckles; “I doubt it father, aside from you, I am the most powerful here...”
“Try not to be arrogant my son, anyway, the one who is arriving today will attend your school so I want you to keep a close eye on him...”
“Him, so you know who he is?”
“That’s right, beware because he can be even more bothersome to you and Marjorie...”
By hearing the name Marjorie, Aleister changes his expression to a serious one, he begins to feel anger and asks:
“Who is that person, father?”
Darius smiles and begins to release a little manna in the shape of purple aura as he replies:
“ The son of Robeto Vazquez...the famous Solitary Wolf...”
*************************************************************************
Attention, Passengers of Flight 07261998 with destination to Sun City. Please fasten your seatbelts, we are about to land...
On seat A-22, a young man with blue hair looks out the window, he sees a mountain range. The twin cities are located in the middle of a large mountain range that extends thousands of miles.
He begins to look at the cities and begins to think:
“So, this is the Borderland...the place that I once called home...”
(BADUMP, BADUMP)
Uriel begins to feel dizzy and a great headache as images from his past begin to flow once again.
“URIEL...”
Uriel sees a red haired woman holding his hand as they walk down the road where he call her:
“MAMA”

“BIG BROTHER...”
He sees a purple haired girl and a red haired boy sitting in what it appears to be his room and he calls them:
“VALERIE, DANIEL”
“What are these images, stop...please stop...”
“URIEL...MY SON...”
Finally, he sees a man sitting on a couch in the living room, he is reading a newspaper. Uriel’s memories are fuzzy and he can’t see the man’s eyes.
“PAPA”
“Ha...ha...ha...” Uriel breathes heavily, he begins to sweat as he grabs his chest thinking :
“Stop it, please...go away...”
All of a sudden, one of the hostess of the airplane grabs his shoulder asking:
“Sir, we are about to land...are you okay?”
Uriel comes to his senses and looks her in the eyes. He changes his expression with a smile and replies:
“Yes ma’am, everything is fine...”
“Very well sir, please fasten your seatbelt...”
The airplane slowly descends to the ground. After the airplane lands, Uriel checks out with his luggage and heads to the exit. He descends the electrical stairs and there is a giant sign that says:
WELCOME TO SUN CITY
Uriel heads to the exit, as he walks down the main gate, he feels that someone is observing him from afar.
Uriel carefully looks in all directions checking who it was, however, the place is very crowded and it doesn’t give him time to see.
Without warning, a figure appears between the crowd.
Uriel stops moving and with a serious expression sees the figure approaching. The figure is a hooded person, his face cannot be seen, the figure has the same height as Uriel.
The strangest thing is that people pass without noticing him. People pass through him.
"I see, is he a hologram or a projection?" Uriel thinks to himself as the figure stops next to him.
Uriel looks forward as the figure begins to speak:
"It is a pleasure to welcome you to the Borderland...Charro Negro…"
The figure has a modified voice of a man. Uriel opens his eyes wider, he smiles and replies:
"Well, this is a warm welcome, who knew I was famous here in the north. You even know who I am…"
"Charro Negro, I don't know what your intentions are here in the Borderland. But hear my warning…Leave immediately...this land is under my jurisdiction…"
"Heh...so I need your permission to be here...what a joke…"
Uriel knows that he can't make a scene, otherwise people would panic, he makes a fists and continues to stand still.
"I am warning you again...do not interfere with my plans… you will regret it…"
"Now you listen to me...I won't be going anywhere...if you interfere with El Charro Negro… I will take your soul…"
The hooded figure begins to walk away as he says:
"You are an interesting fellow...you have been warned...Charro Negro…"
Uriel turns around and notices that the figure disappeared. Uriel continues to walk forward as he chuckles:
"Fascinating; Not even 5 minutes here and I have been challenged...this is going to be a really interesting mission…"
