《CRIMSON MOON (SHORT CHAPTERS)》Chapter 65: Valentine's Day Battle
Advertisement
At the same time, located on the rooftop of the main building...three figures are observing the last pair of students enter…
“That should be the last of them…” Shion, who is observing with a pair of advanced binoculars, says to the other two.
“I see...that clone technique you have is pretty handy...” Uriel, who is sitting on the air conditioner, compliments Shion.
“My dear Uriel, Shion has the ability to clone herself, and no one will ever notice, she is an expert in spying...right?” Jairo says with excitement.
Jairo is a tall and muscular man with a black mustache. Even though he looks manly, he is very feminine, he likes to wear tight jeans with sleeveless shirts and a captain's hat.
“Are you sure she can pull it off as your double?” Shion asks Uriel with a worried expression. Uriel looks at the sky and replies:
“She will, Tiwa is very skilled, plus it doesn’t matter anymore...I am here ready to destroy the Sombras…”
“You could just leave this to us...you should have fun like a normal teenager…” Jairo says as he observes Uriel, Uriel chuckles:
“I am El Charro Negro...I am not normal, besides I find the Love theme disturbing…”
“Ahh, Valentine’s day...I can’t wait for this mission to be over and go to my hobby in Spain and have a romantic dinner…” Jairo says with excitement, Shion puffs her cheeks feeling jealous, Jairo laughs:
“What’s the matter, are you perhaps jealous?”
Shion gets red and replies; “I am not jealous, besides it’s not my fault that my boyfriend cheated on me…”
“Fufufu, if you say so…how about you Uriel-dear, don’t you have anyone special, or someone you loved?”
”Oh please, he doesn’t seem like a lover type…” Shion thinks to herself. “Love ehh? I did had someone I loved…”
“WWWHHHAAATT??” Shion and Jairo scream, “Who?” Jairo asks with curiosity.
“I haven’t thought about that feeling in years...I used to love someone, a girl who had pale skin and reddish eyes with black hair. She was a beautiful princess who I fell for...however…”
Uriel looks at the moon and continues to speak; “She chose someone else, she betrayed me, and I decided to shut those feelings away…”

“I’m sorry…” Shion apologizes, Jairo also apologizes and asks; “So, what is her name, if she is still alive…”
“She is alive, her name is Serena Von Draculus…”
“D-D-DRACULUS!” Both Jairo and Shion scream, surprised, “Draculus, that last name...Uriel...don’t tell me that you actually…”
Uriel stands up and looks down with a serious face; “Prepare yourselves, she has arrived…”
Walking down the empty street, a girl with a dark cloak heads towards the school with an army of Sombras walking behind her… Uriel, Jairo and Shion prepare for their next battle….
************************************************************************
Outside the Gymnasium Building
Located outside of the High School division; Jairo, Shion and Uriel observe that a girl wearing a black cape with a hood walks towards the entrance….
“That’s the Shadow tamer…” Shion looks down at the girl. Jairo stands up and orders Shion:
“Shion, get ready...Uriel…”
Uriel stands up interrupting him, “Wait...there’s something I need to check first…”
Uriel jumps towards the girl using his divine wind technique; “URIEL WAIT!” Shion tries to stop him, but Jairo extends his arm:
“No, let him go...we must first analyze the situation and then take action...the Shadow tamer may be powerful but she is still a little girl…”
Shion and Jairo only observe Uriel. “Jairo, what’s the situation?” Rosa asks Jairo as she is located at the secret hideout beneath his Cafe.
“Rosa, the Shadow tamer appeared...do you have a clear image?”
“I do...why is Uriel heading towards her?”
“He said he wanted to confirm something...let’s wait and see…”
“Right…”
Uriel lands in front of the girl...the girl stands still as she glares at him…
“We meet again...Shadow tamer…” Uriel says to the girl, the girl only looks at him and asks:
“I’m sorry, what is a Shadow tamer?”
“Sorry, I guess you don’t know about those terminologies…why have you come here?”
“To take revenge against those who destroyed my village…”
“Destroy your village, the people inside are just kids, like you and me...they did nothing wrong…”
“You’re wrong...they are responsible, the man in the mask told me that the people inside had participated, it was painful, I saw everyone I loved die...and yet...they are celebrating…”

“The man in the mask? Do you mean El Muerto?”
The girl nods in agreement. Uriel then asks; “Why do you relate me to the Sombras?”
“Because...you are part of us...why are you helping those sinners?”
“Because, I have the mission to destroy the Sombras...that’s all…”
“The masked man was right...you are evil…”
Uriel sighs with his eyes closed; “I see...so that guy told you to attack the school, and he brainwashed you by saying that they were responsible...girl, you have been fooled…”
“SHUT UP! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO SAY ANYTHING…” The girl begins to release purple mana as she continues to exclaim:
“I LOST EVERYTHING...I HAVE CRIED EVERY NIGHT FOR LOSING EVERYONE...AND YET...YOU HEAR THE MUSIC, THEY ARE CELEBRATING...THEY WILL DIE…”
“I guess we have no choice right? You are being manipulated by that man...I must terminate you too…” Uriel makes a fist as he looks at the girl. The girl releases more mana, she takes out her flute.
-♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫-
The girl plays her flute, a beautiful melody that expands towards the whole sector. The sky begins to cover itself with clouds, the light of the moon disappears. Suddenly behind the girl, in each corner of the nearby buildings,red eyes begin to appear.
“So, this is her ability…” Uriel sees how dozens and dozens of Sombras slowly begin to walk towards the girl and him. Sombras from all shapes and sizes, those who have wings fly towards them.The girl stops playing and says:
“Now, all of you sinners will perish…”
-♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫-
Uriel jumps back towards Jairo and Shion’s location. Jairo looks at Uriel and asks; “How did it go, did you learn anything?”
“That girl is being manipulated by El Muerto...I have no choice but to kill her…”
“100 Sombras are heading your way…”
“PREPARE YOURSELF! IT’S TIME TO DEFEND THE SCHOOL”
“Right…” Shion lifts her arm and reveals her crest consisting of a golden filled circle with a large curving line, Shion chants:
“Activate: Gorudenkuren Complete” (Golden Crane)
Shion´s crest begins to spread around her body causing her to shine into a golden color revealing an esper suit. The suit consists of a black kimono with golden lines around the edges of the borders of the kimono. The kimono is adjusted into her body with the skirt being short above the knees. She has black stockings that go up to her knees with her border being golden color. She has sandals with golden colored strings.
Jairo lifts his arm revealing a pink crest that has the shape of a wing. He takes a deep breath and shouts; “Activate; Flamingo Elegante; Completo” (Elegant Flamingo; Complete)
Jairo’s crest begins to spread around his body causing him to transform into his esper suit. The suit consists of black military pants with pink stripes shining on his side. A black vest that has pink stripes in the borders and a flamingo figure on his back. Pink gauntlets and a black police hat with pink borders. Finally, a short pink cape that hangs on his right side.
Uriel extends his left arm as he chants; “Yo soy a jinete, yo soy el inicio, yo soy el final, yo soy el Charro Negro” ( I am the horseman, I am the beginning, I am the end, I am “El Charro Negro”)
He holds his right forearm with his left hand and lifts them. He squeezes his hand and makes a fist.
Suddenly a crimson flame begins to flow out of his ring and expands covering him forming a small pillar of crimson with pink flames, and the wind to blow hard.
Uriel is wearing a special charro suit, which consists of long, tight black colored pants covered with decoration on the sides. He has a long bolero coat with golden buttons white gloves, and a special pitea belt made of silk. He had a white button shirt with a black vest, a silk tie and a large round sombrero hanging from his neck.
(RRRAAAAAWWWW)
The Sombras begin their attack...

There is a common line of questioning that falls upon students within their first moments at Kingsly. “Why?”. The student asks, “Why am I here?”. This is a futile line of questioning. There are those who remember, and those who do not. I’ll spare you the technical explanation — that’s what we have teachers for. The jist is as follows: those who remember are... how do I put this... more likely. They occupy more time. and the space that time has allowed them — the pertinent amount — is experienced no matter what. Allow me to offer you a bit of personal information: I am not one who remembers. There is no time relevant to me, no space that I occupy. I exist by carving myself here, and continue to exist in the same fashion. You would do well to follow suit. Why am I here? Because I force myself to be. Because the universe, the universes, for all its kicking and screaming, cannot escort me out.
