《CRIMSON MOON (SHORT CHAPTERS)》Chapter 64: The Valentines Dance part 3
Advertisement
The doors are completely shut. A barrier surrounds the gymnasium incase of any attack…
“Alright everyone, now that everyone is here, we will shut the doors thank you…” Kasumi speaks through the microphone. Kasumi looks at Shion and moves her head thinking:
“Good, now we can proceed with the plan.”
Kasumi looks at the students and continues to speak; “Very well, now to begin with the traditional Waltz between the contestants.”
(YYYEEEAAAHHH)
The students make room at the center of the dancefloor, “Now, can the contestants walk to the center of the gym thank you.”
Aleister looks at Alejandro and says; “Try not make a fool of yourself okay?”
Aleister and Marjorie walk towards the center of the gym, “Damn you…”Alejandro says as he feels very nervous, he then feels Valerie grabbing his hand:
“Come on, let’s do our best…”
Alejandro and Valerie walk to the center as well. The lights get turned off, and the reflectors only point at the two couples in the center of the dancefloor.
Carlos and Chelsea stand at one end, observing the event as Carlos thinks; “Don’t screw this up, you idiot…”
Chelsea sighs as she thinks; “I wish I could go eat all the candy in the Candybar already…”
Kasumi who looks worried, she fakes a smile and explains; “ALRIGHT, THE TWO COUPLES WILL BEGIN THE TRADITIONAL DANCE WITH OUR TRADITIONAL WALTZ...REMEMBER TO VOTE FOR THE COUPLE WHO DOES IT BEST AT THE BOX THAT SECRETARY SAITO HAS...WITHOUT FURTHER ADIEU...LET’S BEGIN…”
-♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫-
The DJ begins to play the music, a traditional waltz in which the rhythm goes; 1...2...3. Aleister and Marjorie begin to dance, Alejandro who is nervous takes a deep breath, Valerie begins to move slowly with Alejandro trying to get her rhythm.
“Alejandro, try to guide me...just like we practice…” Valerie says in a low tone as both a them dance slowly, Alejandro only looks at his feet thinking:
“Come on, follow the rhythm...1,2,3...1,2,3”
“Ouch!” Alejandro accidentally steps on Valerie’s foot; “I’m sorry…” Alejandro tries to apologize, however, he gets distracted and loses the tempo. They stop dancing, Alejandro begins to breathe heavily:
“Oh no...I messed up, now we will lose...what can I do? What can I…”
“Well now, I think we got this in the bag…” Aleister says with a playful tone, mocking Alejandro. “Aleister, don’t be rude…” Marjorie says with an angry tone. Aleister looks at her eyes:
“Marjorie dear, sleep for a moment…”
Suddenly, Aleister’s eyes shine a bright red color, and Marjorie’s eyes turn hollow. They continue to dance but this time Marjoire acts without conscience. Meanwhile Alejandro is losing his mind as he is very nervous.

“Alejandro...ALEJANDRO…”Valerie raises her voice, Alejandro comes to his senses and looks at her, Valerie looks at him with a smile as she says:
“Calm down, forget about everything, forget about your surroundings, just focus on the rhythm...my brother told you that...just focus on me…”
Soon, Alejandro and Valerie begin to dance once again, “She’s right, I can’t be nervous, I must focus and guide her because it’s my responsibility...I’ve been such an idiot…” Alejandro smiles and begins to dance more fluidly, guiding Valerie and their tempo begins to move faster as they begin to enjoy their dance.
Alejandro and Valerie dance as if the world didn’t exist, Alejandro spins Valerie as he thinks:
“The only person important to me is her right now...I trust her and I know she trusts me…”
The environment surrounding them turns dark as both of them are imaging stars and the moon above them. They dance in the sky above a cloud as they feel as if they were in the sky, like angels dancing in the clouds.
“This is so much fun…” Valerie smiles at him, Alejandro blushes and also smiles replying; “Yes, it is…”
The music begins to slowly end, and the couples slowly stop dancing. Alejandro and Valerie breathe heavily as Valerie says; “Wow, that was magical...Alejandro…”
(YYYEEEAAAHHH)
The crowd makes a round of applause and cheers for them, Aleister makes Marjorie regain her consciousness; “What happened, did the music end already...I didn’t notice…”
“It’s because you were enjoying it dear, don’t worry about it…” Aleister says with a smile, Marjroie knows that something was off, as she thinks; “What happened to me, why can’t I remember…”
“SPLENDID...THAT WAS THE WALTZ AND I MUST SAY THAT THE COUPLES HAD A LOVELY DANCE, NOW THEN IT’S TIME TO BEGIN WITH THE PARTY…”
Kasumi feels relief thinking:
“Alejandro...Valerie...you did wonderful…”
Everyone talks among themselves; “That was a very beautiful waltz...who knew Alejandro could dance so well...maybe he can win this…”
The members of HISTOREA feel relief as the waltz went well. On the other side, Victoria stands alongside “Uriel” as she is clinging to his arm. “That was beautiful, but I bet if we had participated we could’ve easily won, right my sweet Uriel?”
“Y-Y-Yeah…” Uriel acts nervously as he sighs thinking:
“Aww man, why did I let myself get involved in this...Uriel, you will pay…”
**************************************************************************
February 7th, Sun City International Highschool
On that day...Tiwa revealed one of her techniques. She has the ability to transform into another person if she wants...this gave Uriel a great idea….
"Wait...what did you say?" Tiwa asks Uriel with a nervous expression.
“I said that you will go to Valentine's dance as me…" Uriel replies as he sighs.

"But that's ridiculous...I…"
"That's a great idea...if Tiwa goes disguised as Uriel, then the real Uriel will be able to fight the Sombras…" Alejandro suggests with excitement. Kasumi holds her chin thinking, she looks at Uriel and says:
"I guess we could do that...I was planning to send Jairo and Shion but having you there will also give us more advantage…"
“Thank you, Kasumi.” Kasumi blushes. "It's Ms. Miyazono…damn it, don't talk to her as if you were friends…" Carlos glares at Uriel feeling jealous.
Uriel looks at Shion and asks; "Shion, how are you going to get out without anyone noticing?"
"Simple…" Shion makes a hand sign that consists of her left hand with the index and middle fingers up. She releases a small amount of mana.
(POOF)
Suddenly a clone that's identical to Shion appears next to the real one. The clon Shion opens her eyes and explains:
"Simple...I can create clones of myself...I will have one of my clones at the dance and my original will be outside…"
"WWOOOOOWWW!!!THAT'S INCREDIBLE…." Alejandro looks with excitement.
"Very well...on the night of the dance, Jairo, Shion and I will defend the school…" Uriel without any expression explains to the others, Tiwa exclaims:
"HEY HEY WHY ARE YOU MAKING DECISIONS AS IF WE ALL AGREE...I DON'T…."
Uriel looks at Tiwa asking; "What's the problem? We are not excluding you...in fact, your mission is the most important…"
"It is?"
Shion walks towards Tiwa explaining; "Right now we can't have reinforcements come...we don't have time plus Olivia and Darius will notice...by impersonating Uriel, it will give us an advantage, we are an alliance, we believe in you…"
" You do?" Tiwa looks at everyone who nods in agreement, she blushes and says embarrassed;
"Well...it can't be helped...I...Tiwa de Ysleta...will do my job properly...Uriel, I will have to study you…"
And so...Tiwa followed Uriel in secret for the following days in order to know his attitude, his movement, in order to help them in the mission…
******************************************************************************
Present…
“Uriel...Uriel...come on, the dance is about to start, let´s dance…” Victoria pulls Uriel (Tiwa) from his arm, Uriel (Tiwa) thinks nervously:
“What do I do? Uriel isn't someone who dances...then again…”
Uriel (Tiwa) makes a luxurious smile and says; “Sure...why not?”
-♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫-
The DJ plays modern music, the stage is set with lights turning on and off and multiple colored lights shine at the dance floor. Students begin to have fun and go to the dance floor.
“I wonder if Uriel and the others are doing okay?” Alejandro looks at the window, Valerie puffs her cheeks and pulls his arm:
“Alejandro, let's go and have some fun…”
“Yeah I know but….”
“Hey, my Big Brother decided to sacrifice his night of fun for us...let's enjoy it while we can okay…”
Alejandro smiles and replies; “Right, let's go…”
Alejandro and Valerie head towards the dance floor and begin to dance. Meanwhile, Carlos, Chelsea, Shion and Kasumi sit at a table at the right corner of the Gymnasium.
“It appears there is no movement yet, the three of us are in position Senpai…” Shion slowly opens her eyes.
“That's some awesome ability, to look into your clone´s eyes, and see what she sees is pretty useful…” Chelsea comments as she eats all the sweets she gathered at the candybar.
-TCH- Carlos looks angry; “I should be the one outside, why is that guy out there...damnit…”
Kasumi notices Carlos’ frustration; “I understand your frustration, but we have no choice, we must remain here...and trust in our comrades…” Kasumi sighs and suggest:
“Chelsea, you and Carlos must go and dance with your friends…”
“Ehh...but we are on a mission” Carlos exclaims, Kasumi smiles with her eyes close, she appears to be releasing a “red aura” that makes Carlos nervous:
“Carlos, your mission along with Chelsea is to have fun tonight...and if you complete it, maybe I will consider dancing with you on the last song…”
“R-R-Really?” Carlos swallows saliva as he looks at Kasumi who nods in agreement. “The last dance is a slow dance, that means I will get to feel her big….” Carlos immediately stands up and says:
“I will fulfill my mission to the fullest…”
Carlos and Chelsea head towards their group of friends. Shion drinks from her cup; “Senpai, is it okay for them to have fun? We could be attacked any moment now…”
“It’s fine, they may be agents from Yggdrasil but they are still teenagers, they must have fun once in a while, besides...this might be the last time they can enjoy their youth…”
Kasumi looks worried, Shion looks at them having fun thinking:
“I hope not…”
(BADUMP)
Shion has a reaction, she closes her eyes and says; “Senpai, someone has shown up...it’s the Shadow Tamer…”
“Really?” Kasumi looks nervous and thinks; “It’s all up to you...Please protect this school…”
“Now this is boring, I can’t wait until real fun begins…” Ian stands in a corner as he yawns, he smiles and thinks; “I hope you’re ready...Charro Negro…”

The Orb Weaver Chronicles
"The Orb Weaver Chronicles contains several major and unique events that may or may not unknowingly intertwines with one another. The author of these chronicles is unknown, although some have hinted at the symbolism behind its name..." - Year unknown, location unknown 9 February 2022 Update: Welcome to the companion short story compilation of my novel trilogy The Shadow Paradigm. This compilation features prequels, sidequels and sequels to the novel's major plotline, as well as featuring a wide range of characters, new and recurring. Prior knowledge of the novel is not necessary as the Orb Weaver Chronicles' short stories are standalone. Once called The Arkesyyan Chronicles, I've deleted quite a few of its old stories. Due to the new avenue and revision, oriented toward more mystery and film-noir ambience, that I took my stories into, I've removed all aliens and overly sci-fi aspects of the whole TSP lineup, so I've updated the Orb Weaver Chronicles accordingly. I hope you enjoy them, and in time, a revised version will also be updated.
