March 2nd, Del Valle Middle School

The next day it was a normal day of school...Daniel and the three sisters had normal classes...It was the last period of the school day when an incident happened that triggered a chain of events…

“Alright guys...I will pass down yesterday’s homework…” Ms. Gutierrez says to the class. The members of the Chuco Clan have a confident face because they know that the homework they turn in was from Daniel.

Ms Gutierrez passes the homework to each student as she says; “I must say, many of you guys did good, and some did great...Congratulations Daniel, you got a perfect score…”

The students begin to clap at him and the girls cheer, Daniel with an expressionless face only says ‘Thank you’ and puts it away.

“If Daniel got a perfect score, that means we will also have perfect scores as well...fufufu” Apá laughs with confidence.

Ms. Gutierrez continues to speak; “Unfortunately, not all of you did a good job, in fact, four of you got a zero…”

Ms Gutierrez hands over the papers to the Chuco Clan. Apá slowly opens his eyes; “That’s a hundred for you….” Suddenly, he opens his eyes wider and screams:

“WWWWHHHAAATTTT?”

The homework has the score of an “0” meaning that they failed. Apá looks at his group and everyone has a 0, Tito and Bofo look worried at Apá, Chuy sleeps once again.

“Diego, Adolfo, Victor, and Jesus. Please stay after class… I need to talk to you…” Ms. Gutierrez says to the four of them. Apáa looks at Daniel with fury:

“That son of a bitch, he set us up…he will pay…”

***************************************************************************

(RRRRRIIINNNGGGGG)

The bell rang, and everyone decided to go home, everyone except the Chuco Clan…

“Listen boys, I want to help you but it’s clear that you don’t want to do better in your classes, your parents pay a lot of money for you four to study in this prestigious school and yet you act like delinquents.” Ms. Gutierrez scolds the Chuco Clan, the members only sit there looking down.

“Diego, you have intelligence and leadership, you must do better in class. Victor, you are the smartest, you should easily get “100” on each quiz. Jesus, you may be a slacker and always sleeping but when you have the determination, you can do anything. Finally Adolfo, I know it’s difficult, but if you let me, I can tutor you and with your athletic abilities, you can easily be a professional athlete…”

Apá (Diego) trembles as he only thinks; “Damn you Daniel, we will get our revenge...tonight…”

“You guys may leave, but starting tomorrow, you will be tutored by me after class.” Ms Gutierrez says with a smile, the Chuco Clan stands up and walks to the hallway.

(PPPUUUMMM)

DAMNIT! FUCK YOU DANIEL!” Apá is really angry that he hit the lockers. The other three look, Tito then asks:

“What do we do now Apá?”

“What do you think we will do you idiot…” Apá begins to walk with the three of them following him; “WE ARE GOING TO KILL DANIEL!”

***************************************************************************

It’s after school, the sun slowly begins to set...Daniel Di Fiore walks slowly down the street, the street has nothing special, only houses and a grocery store. He heads uphill because he is going home..that part of the city is humble, meaning that there are no fancy houses or fancy cars.

Daniel looks at his phone without any care of the world. Following a few blocks away, a group of four students slowly gain up on him:

“Ready guys?” Apá says as he and the Chuco Clan prepare to attack.

“Yeah Apá” Bofo says as he and Tito prepare the rope.

Daniel looks at his phone and smiles; “Everything is set... now it’s time for the show…”

Daniel stops walking and turns around; “I know you are following me...so come out…”

-TCH- “He knew we were following him?” Apá thinks to himself, everyone except Chuy comes out. Daniel notices that but he pretends he doesn’t care.

“It’s you guys...what do you want?”

“Yo, Daniel...I will need to come with us for only a few minutes…”

“And if I refuse?”

Bofo steps forward; “I’m afraid that is not an action…” Tito also steps forward and smiles; “YEAHH”

Daniel is very cautious, he knows that he is at a disadvantage because it’s three against one. But his disadvantage is that he doesn’t want to show his skills.

“Daniel...you will pay for what you did to us...NOW!”

Suddenly, Daniel sees a shadow from above, Chuy jumps from the ceiling, and surprises Daniel; “What the...when did he?”

Chuy with a more aggressive expression laughs; “I GOT YOU!”

Daniel avoids Chuy’s attack, but Chuy jumps really quickly towards him, Daniel jumps back, but Bofo and Tito were expecting that.

Bofo and Tito grab Daniel’s arms, Chuy proceeds and quickly ties his hands with a rope. With an aggressive look similar to a maniac, Chuy begins to say:

“I GOT YOU, I GOT YOU NOW! NOW I WILL KILL YOU!”

“STOP CHUY...THAT’S ENOUGH!” Apá says as he walks forward, Bofo and Tito force Daniel up to his knees. Chuy soon changes his expression into a calm and sleepy one.

“Good job guys, we got him now…”

Daniel chuckles; “You guys are more sharp than I imagine, I thought you were idiots…”

(PPUUUMMM)

Apá punches Daniel’s face, he proceeds to kick him multiple times. “Pick him up, let’s go now...we’re to have a chat…”

Bofo picks up Daniel into his shoulder and walks with the others towards their hiding spot, leaving Daniel’s backpack behind. Inside his backpack, there was a GPS device that revealed his location.

***************************************************************************

Heading towards the Ministry as well...Fabiola, Mariana and Abril walk uphill…

“School was really fun today...I like P.E. so much, playing handball was fun...right Mariana” Abril, with an energetic attitude comments to Mariana who has a shy face:

“Y-Y-Yes...but I really don’t like running that much…”

“I know...I know...but you did well being the goalkeeper…”

“Yeah...but we lost 15-8...I think I failed…”

“No sister, you did great…”

Abril hugs Mariana making her feel better. Fabiola who is walking a few steps ahead of the other two days:

“Well you two did a good job...however...you must take things more seriously...I really hate to lose…”

Mariana lowers her head and replies; “S-S-Sorry…”

Abril chuckles; “Oh come on...you only act like that because when we were playing... your shorts tore off from behind revealing your “bear” panties…”

Fabiola suddenly gets red and screams:

“SHUT UP...I TOLD YOU FORGET ABOUT THAT…”

Abril laughs; “Fabiola, you really are an unlucky girl…”

“SHUT UP SHUT UP” Fabiola sits on the ground feeling embarrassed; “You’re right...I try to act mature but the things that sometimes happen to me are really childish…”

Abril continues to laugh, Mariana notices something in the middle of the street; “Hey sisters, what is that?”

The sisters hurry and see a backpack; “That’s Daniel’s backpack right?” Mariana asks Fabiola. Fabiola examines it and replies; “That’s his alright...but why is it here?”

“Maybe he dropped it because he needed to go to the restroom…” Abril jokes around, “That isn’t funny Abril, maybe he is in danger…” Mariana expresses concern.

“Mariana is right...we need to let Maria know…” Fabiola states to the other two who nod in agreement, however, they hear a sound coming from the backpack.

(BEEP BEEP BEEP)

“What 's that?” Abril asks Fabiola, they open the backpack and see a GPS device that says Daniel. “That’s one of his weird devices…” Fabiola says to Abril; “I think it’s Daniel’s GPS, is that his location there…”

“It appears to be...it’s just two blocks away…”

“Maybe we should head over and see what has happened to him?” Mariana asks worriedly, Abril nods in agreement, Fabiola has her doubts for a second but immediately nods;

“Okay, but if we see it’s dangerous, we go ask for help okay…”

Mariana and Abril nod in agreement, with determination, the three sisters head towards Daniel’s location.
