Advertisement
Rio Grande City; Present
The New Moon...a phase of the moon cycle in which the moon is in a position opposite of the sun and earth...for normal people, it’s just a phase but for those who know the truth, the New Moon is also known as the Dark Moon…
The Dark Moon serves as a purpose for the Sombras, it enhances their strength and power, and it makes them visible even for those who can’t see them...The Dark Moon also makes them aggressive…
(PUM PUM PUM)
Concealed in the darkness of the night, a giant figure slowly walks towards the city. A giant Sombra created by a fusion of hundreds of Sombras made by one girl.
(RRRAAAWWW)
The giant Sombra roars with force making the city rumble. The girl who is located at the Sombra’s forehead is blinded by rage.
“Vengeance...vengeance to the world...my friend...Naomi was…” Estrella remembers Naomi on the ground, she is covered in blood causing her to panic and remember her parents death.
“MAMA...PAPA...I WANT VENGEANCE…”
Running towards the city, one thousand Sombras head towards the city and attack everyone who crosses their path.
(RRAAWWW SSSLLAASSHHH)
“CORRAN DEMONIOS...CORRAN...AHHHH” (RUN DEMONS RUN)
The Sombras who are influenced by the Shadow Tamer Estrella and with their power increased by the Dark Moon attack the people without hesitation. The number of deaths keeps increasing with every passing minute. In the Rio Grande City’s Mayor Office, the Mayor Nathaniel Gonzalez and his son, Alberto Gonzalez, watch the television:
CIUDAD BAJO ATAQUE!!! (CITY UNDER ATTACK)
“We are leaving in the helicopter as we see thousands of black creatures invading the city...they are attacking and killing people at high speed...we warned the people to take shelter and to not go outside...I repeat...do not go outside...wait...what is that?”

The cameraman shifts it’s attention to the giant Sombra who is heading their way.
“It’s a giant monster...I repeat a giant monster is heading our way...every we must...KYAAHHHH”
(BBBBOOOOMMM)
The Giant Sombra destroys the helicopter with a swing of its arm. Nathaniel looks at it and begins to call a number:
“Darius...what is the meaning of this? Why is a Sombra destroying my city...why is the invasion happening?”
“I don’t know what you are talking about...I have other issues at hand...deal with it yourself…”
“Darius, wait…” Nathaniel hears Darius hanging the phone. “GODDAMNIT!” Nathaniel throws his phone. He grabs his stuff and says; “Alberto, let’s get out of here now…”
“Father, what about the city?”
“Who cares about it...we must take shelter...I am sure someone will stop them…”
“Very well father...I will follow you...besides, I could care less about this city…”
At one of the apartments located at the northern part of the city, Ms. Gutierrez, Daniel’s Algebra teacher looks at the T.V. and makes a call:
“Kasumi-Senpai, we are in trouble, a Giant Sombra appears in the city and is heading to destroy it...plus hundreds of Sombras attacking the city...I need backup…”
“I’m sorry Flor, but for the moment we can’t go to Rio Grande City...remember that we don’t have the authority to be there...plus the others are not at their 100%”
“Senpai, I know that everyone feels somber for what happened to Mr. Jairo but still, the city needs Yggdrasil…”
“Flor...please...just escape while you can...you are no match for those Sombras, you don’t have an Esper Suit...Flor please try to stay safe…”
“...” Flor stays quiet. Kasumi continues to speak; “Flor...just come to Sun City...and trust the Ministry of San Juan...remember that we have an Alliance with them...trust...in Uriel…”

Kasumi hangs up, Flor sighs with her eyes closed thinking; “I guess what happened to Jairo really affected them...but I won’t back down, I must help them...I am a proud member of Yggdrasil...plus I still don’t trust that Uriel fellow…”
Flor walks towards her closet and opens a secret vault; “I will do what I must…”
(PUM PUM PUM)
The Giant Sombra continues to walk, and passes through the powerplant. The Sombra destroys the plant with its steps causing a massive blackout in the city.
(BBBBBBBBBBOOOOMMMM)
(RRRRRAAAAWWWW)
The city is without light, there is no power and panic rises...

Ministry of San Juan
At the same time...at the Ministry, Maria and Sister Carolina were watching the events on the television….
“This is not good...the children..where are they?” Carolina asks Maria; “Valerie will stay in Sun City with a friend...but Daniel and the three sisters are still in the streets…”
“Oh no...we must find them at once…”
“Stop Carolina...this is not the time to be worried, believe in them, they are strong...right now...we must act, Maria gathers the people outside and tells them to take refuge in the Ministry...Carolina prepares to attack…” Father Clemente who was at the door begins to walk towards his office.
In his office, Father Clemente arrives at his office. In his desk there is an emergency button, he presses it sending alert to all of the Churches in the city; he grabs a phone and begins to say:
“Attention, this is an Emergency, Father Clemente Rossi states a level 3 alert...to all of the members of the Church, open your temples and save as many as possible...I will proceed in ending this Invasion in the name of the Order of the Holy Cross…”
Father Clemente lifts his desk and throws it to the wall, destroying it. On the floor, there is a door with a seal on it. Father Clemente closes his eyes and chants:
“Señor, libera esta herramienta sellada para repeler el mal...libera el arma que desterrar demonios; Viento Escarlata” (lord, release the seal tool to repel evil...release the weapon that vanishes demons; Scarlet Wind)
Slowly, the seal begins to burn and a powerful manna opens the door. Father Clemente grabs the weapon that was located on the floor, the weapon has a scabbard with a lock around it.
“It’s been 20 years since I last used it...old friend, I always knew that this day would come...time for me to defend my family…”

Authors Comment: Hello guys, I am bilingual, sorry if there is bad grammar or it just doesn't make sense or something along the lines. If there are any mistakes (which I know there will be) please tell me even if it's just a minor one. Thank you.
