Later that day…
Uriel and Tiwa attended their classes like normal with Uriel being the center of attention. He has been surrounded by girls who want to talk to him...Alejandro remained distant...and Marjorie wasn’t there...After the classes ended, Uriel and Tiwa headed to the clubroom…
Uriel and Tiwa open the door, Carlos and Chelsea are eating chips and reading manga like always, the room is a mess. Tiwa immediately screams:
“WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE?”
“Nothing, we were just chilling…” Carlos puts his legs on the table. -PPPUUMMM- Tiwa kicks him screaming; “HOW DARE YOU…”
“Hahaha, serves you right…” Chelsea laughs at Carlos who sees both of them thinking; “Damn them…” Carlos stands up and moves to another chair. Chelsea looks at Uriel and licks her lollipop in a sexy way; “So...how are you feeling? Is your body feeling better now? I heard that you fought against giant sombras?”
Tiwa notices Chelsea’s intention, she immediately stands next to him and replies; “He’s feeling better, in fact, my friend took out a user of the 16 treasures…”
“Oh, really? Now that is hot…” Chelsea chuckles. Carlos looks surprised as he asks; “16 Treasures? You mean the most powerful and legendary objects in the world?”
“Indeed we fought against one of the users and let me say that…” Uriel interrupts Tiwa; “Tiwa, save that for later...right now, we want to know what happened to Alejandro that made him that way?”
-TCH- Carlos makes a face filled with disgust; “I don’t want to mention that idiot…besides that classified for members of Yggdrasil and you two are just allies...” Uriel walks towards Carlos and grabs him from his shirt neck and forces him into the wall; “HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?”
“I need answers now! There might be a chance that he is involved with something evil…” Uriel thinks back to the morning; “That strange mana that I felt before…”

“HEY STOP IT OR I WILL HAVE TO HURT YOU!” Carlos exclaims however, he struggles to move. Chelsea chuckles; “Acting all high-and-mighty and yet, Uriel has the upper hand...Uriel, don’t worry, if you want I’ll tell you but there is a catch…”
Uriel lets Carlos go, and looks at Chelsea; “What do you want?” Chelsea says in a seductive voice; “I’ll tell you everything, if...you go on a date with me…”
“HUUUHHH??” Tiwa exclaims; “Wait a minute, that’s playing dirty…”
“No, it isn’t...I am just negotiating here...so what do you say?”
“Alright…” Uriel replies without any hesitation leaving Tiwa surprised, Carlos who is on the ground only thinks; “Lucky bastard…”
“Alright, we’ll work on the details later…” Chelsea smiles, Uriel walks and sits next to her; “Now then, what happened to Alejandro?”
Chelsea told everything to Uriel and Tiwa...from the day Alejandro was named President, to his induction to Yggdrasil. How they were attacked by M.I.S.T and how Jairo died…
“It can’t be...Mr. Jairo…” Tiwa has tears in her eyes; “He was a great man who served such a great coffee...poor Alejandro, Jairo was such a great friend to him…”
“However, it was his fault that Jairo died...that’s why I hate him...besides, I really hate his attitude…” Carlos sits back to his chair. Tiwa looks at Carlos with anger, Uriel sighs; “I understand everything...thank you, Chelsea…”
“You’re welcome, I can’t wait for our date…” Chelsea winks at Uriel. Uriel looks at Tiwa; “I need to speak with Alejandro...Tiwa, I’ll be right back…”
(BBADDUUMMPP)
Uriel stops as he feels a presence approaching; “Why is she here?”
“Who?” Chelsea asks Uriel. Suddenly the door opens, Marjorie comes in saying; “Hello guys...I was late today for school but I brought some cookies for…” Marjorie looks at Uriel and her face turns red; “U-U-Uriel, what are you doing here?”

“I am a member of the club, remember? What are you doing here?”
“She is also a member, Alejandro took her in after she was removed from being the Vice-president…” Carlos explains as he drools upon seeing Marjorie in her cheerleading uniform.
“So...are you feeling better?” Marjorie asks Uriel in a shy tone. Uriel nods in agreement as he begins to leave; “Sorry, but I have things to do…” Tiwa feels jealous and screams; “I’M COMING WITH YOU!”
“Do as you please…” Uriel continues to walk, Tiwa runs to his side. Marjorie builds some courage; “Hey, Uriel…” Uriel stops and turns around; “Did you need something?”
“Hey, do you think we could talk after school some other day?”
“WWHHHHAATTT?” Carlos reacts feeling jealous. Chelsea chuckles; “Too bad for you…”
Uriel smiles a little; “Sure…” He turns around and leaves with Tiwa. Marjorie smiles; “Thank you…”
Uriel walks with Tiwa, Tiwa notices Uriel acting strange and asks; “Hey, are you okay?”
“I am, don’t worry…” Uriel says as he thinks; “My heart can’t stop pounding at great speed...why her?”
“Oh Uriel, Senpai, wants to talk to you…” Shion walks towards Uriel. Uriel looks at her and asks; “Talk to me, about what?”
“About a menace that has appeared in Sun City...Uriel, everyone can be in danger…”
***************************************************************************
Secret Hideout…
At the secret hideout, Alejandro decided to stay at the hideout with Anastasia, the hideout has two beds on each side. Alejandro was facing a harsh decision…
“What will I do?” Alejandro looks at the ceiling, he takes a deep breath and stands up. Anastasia went to babysit Cassidy (Coyote’s Granddaughter). Alejandro stands up from his bed and slowly walks towards the chest located in the middle of the room. He looks at his old drawing where they say; Alejandro Sanchez, the Silver Hero….
“Am I really acting as a hero? What have I been thinking...the only thing I have been doing is getting myself into trouble and what’s worse...it affected those surrounding me…” Alejandro begins to rip the piece of paper; “This reality, reality sure is cruel...I guess I have no choice but to do that…”
“Master, I have returned from Master Darius' office…” Anastasia opens the door. Alejandro looks at her and thinks; “That’s right, I have her...I need her…” Alejandro slowly walks towards her; “Hey, Anastasia...you said that you would do anything for me right?”
“Yes, I did...because you are my master…”
“I see...then would you do anything I ask you?”
“Yes...I would…”
Alejandro makes a sinister smile and touches Anastasia’s shoulder; “Then I have a favor to ask you...would you die for me?”

Is It Too Late To Move My Lair?
A legendary dragon... It has been told in the stories for hundreds of years. Some say it keeps a mountain of treasure in its cave, some say it is a vicious beast, some say it protects the village nearby, some claim it can grant their wishes, and some just think it's nothing more than a fairytale. He is not. The dragon is very real, although he isn't bothered by what people think of him in the slightest. He also doesn't have a grand treasure, nor does he grant wishes, like a magical genie. He is not interested in eating humans either. And as for protecting them… well. This is the story of the time before the legends, how they came to life and a dragon in the quest of his snooze. In a nutshell, this is a simple, light-hearted story with a dragon in it. What I have in mind is a relatively short one compared to most of the works on this site, but we'll see where it goes. This is my first attempt at writing something like this, so please be patient and kind in pointing out mistakes. As for the posting schedule... let's say it will be sporadic. Hope you enjoy reading, as much as I do while writing it… THE STORY IS NOT DROPPED, JUST SLOW ON THE UPDATES. Cover art by Nane, aka me. (Cross-posted on Scribble Hub.)
