February 6th, Hills outside Sun City

After the battle against the Chupacabras, Uriel needed to heal his wounds, but in order to do so, he needed to be away from the Ministry. The reason is because Uriel is considered evil under the eyes of the church, and anything holy could harm him and prevent him from healing fast…

Alejandro offered their secret hideout, a small shack located at the outskirts of Sun City…

(BADUMP BADUMP)

Laying on a couch, Uriel sleeps as he recovers from his injuries. Soon, he begins to move around as he has a dream:

“PIU,PIU, I got you Space Ranger Red.”

Alejandro plays with his toy gun, Uriel fakes his death as he says:

“Oh, I died, no…curse you….Silver Space Ranger…”

“Hahahaha” The boys smile as they begin to throw mud balls.

Uriel….

Mama….

Uriel opens his eyes, he has his arm extended with a tear falling from his right eye. Uriel slowly lifts his body as he thinks:

“Why am I having those dreams? It’s as if...I was seeing my life before I became El Charro Negro…”

Uriel stands up, he walks towards the window and sees the setting sun. He walks around and looks at the posters of the famous show “Space Rangers”, the secret hideout has a couch bed, a fridge, and a generator.

Uriel looks at a picture where Alejandro, Marjorie, Raul, Angela, and Victoria appear. He looks at it suspiciously because between Marjorie and Alejandro, there is a space, almost as if there was someone there.

“Oh good, you’re awake, here, I brought your uniform and your backpack for tomorrow…” Alejandro enters the secret hideout.

“Thank you for helping me, sorry you had to go all the way to the Ministry…”

“Hey no sweat...besides, I wanted to tell everyone that you’re okay...they were relieved…”

“I see…” Uriel looks at Alejandro covered in bandages and a swollen eye. He sighs and says:

“Hey Alejandro, why are you helping me? I was the one who beat you up you know…”

Alejandro shakes his head with his eyes closed and with a smile he replies:

“Uriel….Uriel...it’s because we are friends...besides, I was acting stupid at that moment. You were right all along…”

“Still...I’m sorry…”

Alejandro laughs; “Are you apologizing? Man you sure are something…in fact, I am the one who is sorry for being a burden…”

Uriel extends his arm and chants:

“Curación” (Healing)

Slowly, Alejandro’s injuries heal in a blink of an eye; “Incredible, I’m healed, hey I didn’t know you could do that.”

Uriel bleeds from his mouth; “It’s just a simple miracle technique.”

“Hey dude, you’re bleeding...why?”

“Miracles are holy and I’m a cursed soul remember, they affect me…”

“So why did you do it? I didn't want to be healed, Sister Carolina offered to help but thought it was too much of a burden.”

“You idiot…” Uriel smiles, he grabs the photo and asks; “Hey, why does this picture have someone missing?”

Alejandro looks at it and smiles; “Well, you are the one who is missing in that picture…”

“I see...hey, how come you’re the only one who remembers Uriel Vazquez...not even my family remembers him…”

“I don’t know...maybe it’s because of this…” Alejandro eats chips as he searches for the fire badge…”

“Here catch..Alejandro throws the badge, Uriel grabs it and sees that it has something written in the back:

Fire Space Ranger…Uriel Vazquez…

“This is...incredible...For something like this to exist, this might be the only proof that Uriel Vazquez existed.”

(BBAAADDDDUUUUMMMPP)

Images of “Uriel Vazquez” begin to pass on Uriel’s mind. Alejandro looks at him and asks:

“Is something wrong?”

“Nothing is wrong…”

Alejandro sits on the couch and eats chips, Uriel puts the badge down, he grabs his head.

“So Uriel, how is your family? I remember you have one but I can’t remember them at all…”

“I had a father, but he was killed 5 years ago…”

“Yeah, I know that already...what about your mother?”

“Well, my mother is really kind, she accepted me as her son, even though she doesn’t remember me…”

“Oh, that’s very kind of her…”

“But she is really strict plus she gets angry when I don’t call her…Right now, she must be spitting fire because I haven’t called her for over a year and a half…”

Alejandro imagines a woman with horns and spitting fire, similar to a dragon.

“Hehe, that must be tough…what about siblings?”

“I have a little sister, she is a year younger...she is nice to me, but she is very annoying sometimes…and my brother is three years younger, however, he doesn’t trust me at all...so we are distant to each other…”

“I see...that’s too bad…” Alejandro scratches his cheek, avoiding eye contact.

“What about you?” Uriel asks Alejandro.

“Well, my parents died when I was only three, so I can’t remember them...I have a sister who is five years older than me but she lives in Spain and I think she doesn’t like me at all…”

Alejandro changes his expression; “My grandparents raised me, they died four years ago, and ever since then, Ms. Gutierrez has watched over me…”

“I see…well then, I will go to sleep now…”

“Already?”

“Yeah, tomorrow we have school…”

“Man, sometimes you're so boring…”

“Good night…” Uriel turns around and goes to sleep. Alejandro sighs and looks at the picture:

“I guess, some things never change…”

Alejandro sits on the other bed across from Uriel and begins to play video games.

Lucifugus Mansion

Located at the North east side of Sun City, a beautiful mansion that stands on top of the highest hill. The mansion has over 20 rooms and has two floors. In the biggest room of the mansion known as the living room, Aleister sits on a couch as he zips a cup of tea.

“This arm of mine sure hurts…” Aleister, who has a cast on his left arm, holds a cup of tea with his right hand.

“Master, you shouldn’t move too much…” A beautiful girl dressed as a maid tries to help him.

“Anastasia, I am doing fine...you don’t have to worry that much…”

“I understand, sorry for my rudeness…”

“By the way, how are you doing in your classes?”

“I am doing well, my grades are average as usual...I try not to get too much attention…”

“I see...well keep up the good work”

“Thank you for your kindness…”

Aleister stands up, he holds Anastasia’s chin and moves it up; “Anatasia, we’ve known each other for many years, you should at least try calling me Big Brother…”

Anastasia avoids looking at him; “No, I am not worthy of calling you that...I am just a peasant…”

Aleister chuckles and walks to the window; “Do as you wish, but for me, you are like a sister, remember that…”

“I will keep that in mind…”

“Aleister, I have returned…” Darius enters the living room, he looks at Aleister’s cast and laughs:

“What happened to your arm? Don’t tell me that you fell down the stairs?”

Darius sits down on the sofa, Anastasia gives him some tea; “Thank you my sweet daughter...I hope you’ve been doing well?”

Anastasia nods in agreement; “Yes, I have Master Darius…”

“Please, call me, papa or father…”

“I am not worthy…’

Darius sighs and chuckles. Aleister walks towards him; “Father, how was your trip?”

Darius changes his expression, he sits up straight and replies; “Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the objective...that “object” is hard to find...but don’t worry, we still have time. Anyway, how is Charro doing? Is he your ally now?”

“No...he allied himself with those from Yggdrasil…”

“Ahh, Yggdrasil huh...well that was unexpected…”

“Nonsense father, in fact, I planned that all along…”

Aleister smiles at Darius, Darius looks intrigued; “Oh, well, I will leave things to you then…”

“Thank you…”

“ALEISTER! WHERE ARE YOU?” A young man with short spiky white hair enters the room.

“Ian, it’s been a while…”

Ian Constantin is Aleister’s cousin. He has short white hair, pale skin and reddish eyes. He has a muscular body with average height. He is very straightforward and likes to hit on girls.

“Anastasia, you’re looking well…” Ian says as he kisses Anastasia’s hand. Anastasia steps back without any expression.

“Ian, you never change…”

Ian looks at Aleister and asks; “What happened to your arm? I can’t believe that you got hurt, you of all people…”

“It was just a miscalculation...don’t worry about it…”

“Ian, I brought you back because I need you to work for Aleister…”

“I accept, I was bored in Europe, thank you for the opportunity.”

“Excellent, Aleister, I have something to do, I will see you at dinner…” Darius opens a portal and disappears.

Ian sits on the couch; “Now then, what do you want me to do?”

Aleister looks at the moon and replies; “I need you to beat up someone for me…”

“Now we’re talking...who is it?’

Aleister smiles; “He’s…”

Tiwa’s Apartment:

On the South side of Sun City, there is a sector filled with apartments. The rankings go from basic to luxurious. On the luxurious apartments called “Diamond Apartments” room 329, a beautiful girl with blonde hair lives there:

“Ha..man this sucks…” Tiwa combs her hair. She has nothing but a towel on because she just took a bath.

A spirit owl appears as he says; “Hoot...Hoot...Lady Tiwa, why are you so upset?”

“Well Suma...I really wanted to hang out with Alejandro a little more but he decided to help Uriel…”

“Sss….Mistress Tiwa do you have feelings for him?” Jana, a spirit serpent appears behind her.

“EEHHHH” Tiwa falls back, she begins to look at them nervously:

“N-n-no, it’s nothing like that...I just wanted to talk a little more…”

“Don’t get nervous…..sssss…..it’s only natural a girl you’re age is interesting in the opposite sex…”

“Hoot, hoot...she’s right Lady Tiwa”

Tiwa has her face all red, she stands up and continues to comb her hair:

“Even if it was true...he only has eyes for Marjorie…”

“What’s that supposed to mean? You’re not giving up are you?” The spirit of a coyote appears out of the amulet.

“No, I am not Zuni…”

Zuni is a spirit coyote that is contracted with Tiwa like Suma and Jana. He has a regular size just like a coyote, he has reddish fur and blue eyes.

“Remember, you’re the last descendant of the Ysletas, so you must be strong, you must not lose, even if it is a love problem..”

“I know that...but this is different, it’s just that I...see Alejandro and feel nervous…ever since our eyes met, I felt warm in my heart”

“That is love mistress….ssss….and it is a normal feeling…”

“Love ehh? Can someone like me have the right to carry that feeling?”

Tiwa looks at the mirror, she changes her expression to a confident one.

“Zuni, you’re right...if I do feel love, then I must fight...Valentine’s day is approaching...then I must do my best and give Alejandro the best present…”

“Huhu, that is the spirit Lady Tiwa…” Suma flies around. Tiwa chuckles as she thinks:

“Thank you guys…I know that you will always be with me…”

Tiwa changes her expression to a serious one, but I can't let that distract me, I need the Golden key...only then will I be able to return home…"

Tiwa looks at a picture where she appears as a little girl with a boy next and two adults. However, that picture is very old, as it has a yellowish color on it, and everyone has a native attire...
