During lunch time, students have the liberty to eat at their cafeteria, at their classroom or outside... Daniel, just like Alejandro, managed to go up the ceiling because he likes to be alone, as he lies on the ceiling, watching clouds...Daniel remembers the conversation he had on February 14th…

February 14th; Sun City International Highschool

After the Valentine’s dance, Uriel and Ian had a death match which caused Uriel to be gravely injured...This is what happened after Uriel passed out…

“UUUURRRIIIEELLL” Alejandro runs towards Uriel who is covered in blood. Kasumi and Shion also run towards him.

Suddenly, a red barrier appears in front of them.

“Stop right there…” Kasumi, Alejandro and Shion turn around and see Daniel with his hand extended.

Kasumi begins to shout; “What are you doing? Uriel is badly hurt...if we don’t do something...he will…”

“He will not die…” Daniel and Valerie walk towards him, and soon, four transparent walls form around Uriel, creating a forcefield. Valerie looks at Uriel with tears in her eyes; “Big Brother...you over did it again…”

“Daniel, what’s the meaning of this? Don’t you care about him, he is dying…” Alejandro exclaims as he screams with anger.

“To be honest...I don’t care about him...however, Valerie is sad, so I will take him home...You think you know my brother but you know nothing…”

Kasumi gets angrier and makes a katana appear, she walks towards Daniel and points at him with her Katana; “I’ve had enough, Daniel and Valerie, you claim to be his family but I don’t think I can trust you...how can a family doesn’t do anything to help him...he is dying and you act so calm?”

Daniel chuckles, he calmly looks at Kasumi; “Ms. Miyazono, you are pointing your sword at a young boy…”

Fabiola runs towards Daniel’s side and exclaims towards Kasumi; “STOP IT, TRY TO STAY CALM! YOU WON’T HELP URIEL LIKE THAT!”

“I don’t care...Daniel, you will give Uriel to us, with our technology, we will save his life…”

“I’m afraid that’s not possible...you see, my son doesn’t need any technology...he only needs time…” Kasumi and the others hear the voice of a woman, they turn around and see a beautiful woman with a black dress and red hair.

Daniel and Valerie look surprised; “Mother, why are you here? How did you get here?”

“Wow, what a babe...she’s Uriel’s mother?” Carlos looks at her with heart-shaped eyes. -PUUM- Chelsea hits Carlos’ stomach with her elbow.

Maria walks towards Kasumi, she smiles and puts her sword down. “Kasumi, my girl, please don’t make things more complicated, my son is going to be fine...I can see that it was a long night for everyone so let me give you a gift….”

Maria lifts her arm, “Oh Dios, sana la fatiga de tus hijos…” (Oh lord, heal the fatigue of your children…)

Maria shines with a golden light, the golden light expands covering everyone. Soon everyone’s wounds and fatigue disappeared.

“Well, that should do it…” Maria walks towards Uriel, she puts her hand on the barrier and says; “Mi hijo, reckless like your father…”

“Valerie, Daniel and Fabiola time to get going.” Maria says to the three of them, they get behind Maria.

Maria looks at Kasumi and says; “Kasumi, don’t worry about him, he will be just fine...one more thing...the next time you point your sword at any of my children...You will receive divine punishment…”

Maria looks at Kasumi with hollow eyes, Kasumi gets nervous and bows multiple times; “Right...I’m sorry...I’m sorry…”

Maria waves at Yggdrasil; “BYE BYE!”

A powerful wind current blows, creating a small sphere engulfing Maria and the others, soon they disappear in a blink of an eye. Leaving the members of Yggdrasil and Daniel looking at the sky…

Present…

“niel...Daniel...DANIEL!” Daniel comes back to his senses, he looks at a girl with her arms crossed; “What do you want, Fabiola?”

“Why do you always come here? This is a prohibited place you know…”

“So what? I don’t bother anyone, and I don’t want anyone bothering me…”

“Class is about to start, your mother told me to look after you…”

“Yeah, yeah, but remember that I am coming here for another reason, not for school…”

Daniel stands up, both of them start walking, Fabiola looks down; “You’re here, because you think that someone from our school has connections with the Shadowtamer right?”

“Bingo...and that’s why I am searching for him or her...but I still have to investigate more…”

“Is there anything I can help…”

“No...this is my mission, it’s better if you don’t get involved…”

Fabiola lowers her head; “Oh...okay…”

As Daniel and Fabiola walk on the hallway, as they are about to make a turn, an arm pulls Daniel and slams him in the wall.

“Daniel…” Fabiola says with a worried face. Bofo from The Chuco Clan grabs Daniel’s shirt neck and lifts him to the point that his feet do not touch the ground.

“Yo, Daniel...we have a favor to ask you…” Apa says with a sinister smile.

“DANIEL!” Fabiola says nervously, Daniel calmly looks at Fabiola and sighs; “Fabiola, go back to class, this has nothing to do with you…”

“But…”

“You heard her missy...unless you want to get beaten up as well…” Tito says to Fabiola, Fabiola nervously nods and continues to walk to their classroom.

“Now then, what do you want? Judging the way you are holding me Adolfo, you want something that I would likely say no, right?” Daniel says calmly, Apá begins to laugh:

“Wow. you sure are smart, well you see...we need the answers of the homework that Ms. Gutierrez gave us...we didn’t do it because we were busy last night…”

“Let me guess, you were slacking off at the corner of a street acting all high and mighty right?”

“What did you say?” Apá gets angry,Bofo lifts Daniel more; “Hey, Apá asked a favor, it would be wise for you to say yes…”

“Yeah, we need to turn in that homework or we will fail….” Tito says to Daniel, Chuy who is falling asleep laughs; “Guys, I am so tired right now...that I could fall asleep standing…”

“You already are an idiot…” Apá says to Chuy who has sleepy eyes.

“Alright, you convinced me...here…” Daniel takes out his homework and gives it to the Chuco Clan. Bofo lets go of him and the four of them copy Daniel’s homework.

“There you go, see...I know you were smart and you avoided a beatdown Daniel…” Apá says feeling tough, Daniel nods; “Yeah yeah, come on hurry up before class starts…”

They continue to copy it, Fabiola who is looking at him as she hides in the corner thinks; “Daniel, why are you helping those losers?”
