May 26 th; Sun City International Highschool

It’s been one month since the events that shook everyone’s lives…from the attack of Quetzalcoatl to the mission to save Maria…After those events, everything has return to normal…with the HISTOREA Alliance having regular missions on hunting down Sombras in both Sun City and Rio Grande City…Alejandro has increased his training regiment to become stronger, alongside everyone else who are determined to protect the Borderland…

The final week of the school year has arrived…everyone is excited for the END OF THE YEAR PROM DANCE…however, they have one obstacle left…the week of finals…In Sun City International Highschool, students need to prove themselves worthy of passing to the next grade…

Carlos and Chelsea study at the HISTOREA Clubroom…as for Alejandro…

“Aww man…why do I have to study History? I mean this subject is so boring…and I have better things to do…” Carlos leans back on his chair as he puts his book on his face, covering it.

Carlos Valverde is a senior who has white skin, black hair and blue eyes. He is very strict when it comes to training and missions with Yggdrasil and HISTOREA, however, when it comes to studying, he likes to slack off.

“Oh come on, Carlos, this is our last week of Highschool, you should at least pass all of your exams with a perfect score, remember that if you do that…Kasumi- Senpai will give you a reward…”

Chelsea Lockhart is also a senior who has white skin, bluish tone hair and pinkish tone eyes. She is very smart and likes to eat candy often. She is also a member of Yggdrasil and HISTOREA.

Carlos straightens himself; “You’re right…maybe if I get the highest score…Senpai will give me a reward…”

(BOING)

Carlos’ nose bleeds as he imagines Kasumi’s Big boobs. Chelsea chuckles; “Whatever keeps you motivated…speaking of motivation…what happened to him? He’s always so motivated but today…”

Chelsea looks at the corner of the room. At the corner, Alejandro is in a fetal position with the giant word; DEPRESSED above his head.

“Oh him…don’t worry about it…he was just rejected by Valerie to go the prom with him…”

Carlos opens a bag of ships. Alejandro stands up with tears in his eyes; “HEY, DON’T SAY IT SO CASUAL…MY LIFE HAS ENDED YOU HEAR ME!”

“Yeah yeah…you know, it’s kinda funny…I thought she would say yes…”

“Me too ... .wahhh…” Alejandro returns to the corner. Chelsea looks surprised; “Whoa…that’s news to me…I thought you two had something…”

“I also believed it…but…she put her hands together and with a great cute smile… she said:

Sorry…I already decided to go with my brother…”

“Oh, so Uriel isn’t free either? What a let down…” Chelsea sighs. Alejandro makes a fist enraged; “DAMN YOU URIEL!”

“Now that’s surprising…I also thought Uriel had something with Marjorie…I mean, they have been so close lately…” Carlos continues eating chips; “Well…who cares…Alejandro, Valerie rejected you because she didn’t want to go with a loser like you…”

“What did you say?” Alejandro throws a pencil at Carlos, Carlos catches it with ease and makes a smirk; “Ha…it will take you more than that to…”

(PPUUMM)

A backpack hits Carlos; “YOU SON OF…” Carlos and Alejandro brawl in the classroom. Chelsea gets angry; “Sheesh you’re so loud…Alejandro, why not ask someone else like Tiwa or Anastasia?”

Alejandro stops fighting; “Well…Anastasia will go but asking her is weird…and Tiwa…well…we haven’t talked to her in a month…she’s been avoiding me…”

“She sure has…she’s been avoiding you and Uriel…what did you guys do to her?” Carlos grabs Alejandro 's hair. Alejandro looks at the ceiling; “I don’t know…I swear, we haven’t done anything to her…”

Alejandro punches Carlos. Alejandro looks at Chelsea; “What about you? Do you have a date?”

Chelsea takes out her lollipop and starts licking it; “Well…I wanted to go with Uriel…but…I guess…I will have to go with him…” Chelsea points at Carlos, Carlos blushes; “Hey wait…I wanted to go with Senpai…”

“Fufufu…teachers can’t go with students…I’m afraid you have no choice…”

Carlos sighs; “Okay fine…but if Senpai is free, I will go with her…”

“You guys have it simple…now what am I going to do?” Alejandro wonders as Carlos hits him in the head.

(PPPUUUMMM)

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

Rooftop…

Uriel lies down on the roof as he rests…

“The weather is great…now then…” Uriel opens his eyes and stands up; “Why don’t you show yourself…”

A shadow appears and attacks Uriel. -PPUUMM- Uriel dodges the attack, he sees in the smoke screen a figure with yellow eyes. The figure attacks using a snake whip.

(PUM PUM PUM)

“She’s gotten faster…but still…”

Uriel grabs the whip and pulls the figure. The figure makes the whip disappear and appear in the figure’s hand again. Uriel sighs with his eyes closed:

“So, you have been avoiding us for weeks now…I decided to respect that but to attack me like that…you better have an explanation for that…Tiwa…”

The figure is revealed to be Tiwa. Tiwa makes the serpent disappear and her eyes return to a normal color.

Tiwa de Ysleta (16 years old) has brown skin, long straight blonde hair and purple eyes. She has a slim body. She is wearing a school uniform and has Native headband with a rhombus pattern on her forehead.

Tiwa walks towards Uriel with a serious expression:

“URIEL DI FIORE…I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL!”

“A duel? what are you?”

Tiwa puts her fist in front of him; “FIGHT ME NOW!”

Uriel looks at Tiwa with determined eyes and smiles:

“Very well…I accept!”

Uriel opens a portal, he and Tiwa enter the portal and disappear.

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

Hallway…

Walking down the hallway…Marjorie, Angela and Victoria have an interesting conversation…

“Wait…so Uriel rejected your invitation for Prom?” Marjorie asks Victoria, Victoria sighs with her eyes closed; “He did…I can’t believe it…”

Victoria Salazar has long red hair with a ponytail hanging on her right shoulder. She is considered one of the three "princess idols” in the High school. She has a very hyperactive personality.

Marjorie looks relieved, Victoria notices and puffs her cheeks; “Well, it’s not like he will go with you…in fact, he also rejected several girls…”

Marjorie Bellerose has long silver hair with a black ribbon on her left side and blue eyes. She has a slim body with a nice figure. She is the most popular girl in the school, considered one of “the three princess idols” of the high school.

“He did? But Why?” Angela asks shyly, Victoria crosses her arms; “I don’t know, maybe he won't go?”

Angela Conte has a thin body and has average height. She has long straight black hair and brown eyes. She still is very shy but that is what makes her attractive to the guys at school. She is considered one of "The princess idols" of the high school division

“That can’t be…I mean, this is a dance and everyone must go…” Angela replies with a worried expression. Victoria takes a few steps forward; “Well now, how about we go and speak with him directly…”

“Ehh??” Marjorie and Angela look surprised, Marjorie’s face turns red; “But…but…I don’t think it’s a good idea, what if he gets angry…”

“Oh come on…he won't, he’s a guy after all…if three cute girls go and ask why he won’t go with me…he would gladly accept…”

“I don’t know…Uriel isn’t like that…” Marjorie looks at Victoria. Victoria looks with suspicion; “Well, you two have been closed since we came back…did something happen between you two?”

Marjorie remembers that she confessed her love and kissed Uriel. Marjorie turns redder , Victoria gets closer to her; I knew it…something did happen right?”

“N-N-No…you got it all wrong…”

“Mmmhh…suspicious” Victoria wonders. As the three girls walk towards the HISTOREA room, several guys from the highschool stop to look at them:

“Hey look, the three princess idols are together…

Do you think they already have a date?

You should ask one out…

Nah man…I’m too scared…”

The three of them look depressed as they notice that they do not have a date. Victoria sighs; “You know, sometimes being pretty can have its drawback, am I right?”

“Agree…” Both Marjorie and Angela nod in agreement. The girls head to the HISTOREA clubroom. As they walk, they have a conversation about Alejandro.

“You know, Alejandro sure has changed…am I right?” Marjorie remembers Alejandro when he was a boy.

“Hhhppmmhh…at least he’s not a dork anymore…” Victoria crosses her arms. Angela blushes; “You’re right, he’s become more handsome and strong…being the Student Council President suits him well…”

“Oh please, we all know you have a crush on him…why don’t you confess your love already…I mean, if you wait longer…that girl, Valerie will take him away from you…” Victoria replies with disgust. Angela puts her hand together:

“I don’t mind…if he’s happy, then I am happy too…”

“Sheesh, I don’t understand you…”

“Oh leave her alone…what about you Victoria? I believe Uriel already has someone special…”

“Yeah so what? I won’t give up on him…and neither do you…”

“Me?” Marjorie blushes, Victoria puffs her cheeks; “We know that you have a crush on him too…that makes us rivals…”

“I-I-I don’t know what to say…”

The girls arrive at the clubroom. Victoria knocks at the door, but no one answers; “That’s weird…”

Suddenly, the girls hear a discussion; “I’M TELLING YOU THAT PINK…

NO I SAY YELLOW…

PINK…

YELLOW…

(PPPUUMMM)

(GGYYAAAHHH)

At that moment, Alejandro opens the door and bumps into Victoria forcing her to the floor; “Ouch, what was that…why is there something soft here…”

(BOING)

Alejandro squishes something big. Suddenly, Victoria turns red and screams; “GGGYYAAHHH”

“Wait…Victoria…” Alejandro panics as he gets out of the way. He sees Marjorie and Angela; “Wait, why are you girls here…”

“Oh my…what a pervert…” Chelsea chuckles with Carlos glaring at him; “Lucky Bastard…”

“It’s not what it looks like…I wasn’t seeing where I was going and…” Alejandro blushes as he sees Victoria’s blue panties; “I-I-I…ugghh…” Victoria comes to her senses and immediately covers them, with tears in her eyes, she looks at Alejandro; “You pervert!”

(SSSLLLAAAPPP)

After the things settled down…girls had one question; “Where is Uriel?”

“Mmmhh…he said that he had things to do…so he went home early…”Chelsea replies as she licks her lollipop.

“I see…” Marjorie lowers her head. Victoria gets angry; “I don’t get it…why did he reject my invitation to go to the prom…”

Alejandro, who was knocked out, opens his eyes and stands up; “Oh that’s easy…he says he’s going with Valerie…”

“Valerie? Why her?” Marjorie looks concerned. Chelsea chuckles; “Fufufu…you spend time with him and you don’t know that Valerie is the most important girl for him?”

“She is?” Angela looks surprised. Carlos scratches his head; “Chelsea, stop teasing them…”

Alejandro looks at Marjorie; “No need to worry…in fact, Valerie is Uriel’s sister…”

“His sister? Uriel has a sister?” Victoria looks surprised. Alejandro nods in agreement; “That’s right…Valerie is Uriel’s sister…”

The three girls look surprised about learning the truth; “WE NEVER KNEW THAT!”

“Well, Uriel is someone who doesn’t like to speak about personal matters…I mean, you never suspected it, they have the last name…”

The girls feel embarrassed as neither ever thought about it. Alejandro sighs; “You girls make me laugh…”

Chelsea wonders; “Now that I think about it…where is Tiwa?”

Carlos and Alejandro look at her and reply; “We have no idea…”

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

The hills behind the Ministry of San Juan…

On the hills behind the Ministry of San Juan…a fierce duel proceeds…

(CCCRRRAASSHH BBBOOOMMM)

Uriel stands in combat position, he has his sword and his eyes closed; "Focus…focus on her movements…"

(PPPUUMM PPUUMM)

Uriel blocks a couple of attacks, he jumps back and evades the attack once more; " She's gotten faster…and stronger…"

A girl jumps down with great speed and with her silver claws, attacks Uriel. Uriel blocks the attack with his sword but the attack moves him back a couple of inches away.

"I see…even though this is a sparring match, she’s taking it seriously huh…well then…I guess, I will be serious as well…” Uriel lifts his sword and charges to attack. The girl dodges his attack and kicks him.

“You’ve improved Tiwa…” Uriel jumps back, Tiwa charges at him and attacks multiple times.

Tiwa pushes Uriel away. Uriel uses his sword to stop the momentum; “I guess, I can try that move here…” Uriel closes his eyes and concentrates. Tiwa stops from distance and looks at him with rage:

“So, he thinks I am not much of a threat huh…well then…SUMA, JANA, ZUNI…FUSE!”

(BBBOOOMMM)

She now has a black Native Americans style dress with frills at the bottom. White boots, white wrist warmers that all fringes in the bottom, and a red bandana with Native American patterns around her head. She has Coyote ears, coyote tail, wings from her back and a serpent style lasso surrounding her waist.

Uriel smiles; “So, you really want to kill me? Very well…allow me to show you my new power…” Uriel closes his eyes and takes one step, expanding his rhythm sense towards the whole area:

“Campo de la Canción (Song Field); Principio (Beginning)”

“Closing you eyes? Are you mocking me?” Tiwa shouts as she increases her speed; “Lady Tiwa…you’re going too fast…” Suma shouts to Tiwa, Tiwa doesn’t listens; “Shut up!!”

Uriel senses Tiwa’s movements. Tiwa rushes to attack him. -SSSLLAASSHHH- Uriel dodges the attack with his eyes closed.

“WHAT THE…” Tiwa attacks once more. Uriel evades the attack again, Tiwa continues to attack, Uriel dodges every attack without opening his eyes; “I can see her with only her rhythm…all this training is effective…”

“DAMN YOU!!!” Tiwa shouts. -BBBAADDUUMMPP- Uriel notices hears something weird; “Why did you leave me behind?”

Uriel opens his eyes and blocks her attack. -PPPUUUMMM- As Uriel and Tiwa stand face to face, Uriel notices Tiwa enraged; “Why are you so angry at us? Ever since we came back, you’ve been really distant…and now you’re fighting as if you want to kill me…”

“SHUT UP!!!”

(PPUUMM)

Tiwa hits Uriel, sending him flying and crashing into a hill; “Damn it , I’m still too weak from using all that power…” . Tiwa breathes heavily, Uriel notices something strange; “Is that a tear?”

Tiwa jumps to the air, Uriel stands up and sees her flying. Tiwa looks at him with rage; “You liar!!! I thought we were friends…”

“SSS…Mistress Tiwa…that is enough…”

“You haven't recuperated from that mission…”

“Jana…Zuni…stay quiet…” Tiwa charges at Uriel one more time. Uriel hears Tiwa’s thoughts; “Why…why…why…”

“I understand” Uriel makes his sword disappear and stands still. Tiwa notices; “What are you doing? Are you insane?”

“No…in fact, I understand…”

Tiwa changes her attack. -BBBOOOMMMMM- Tiwa tackles Uriel as both of them fly a couple of meters. As the dust cloud disappears, Tiwa sits on top of Uriel; “Why did you do that?”

“Because…I don’t want to fight you…I felt your sadness and rage…why not telling what’s going on?”

(DRIP DRIP DROP DROP)

Tears come out of Tiwa’s eyes as she trembles; “Why didn’t you ask for my help…I found out what happened to your mother…I could've been of use to you…I thought we were friends…and friends are supposed to be ask other friends for help…so why?”

Uriel lifts his body; “Listen Tiwa…I understand how you feel, but at that moment, we were out of time…and I needed the people who were there at that moment…besides, I knew that you were injured…I didn’t want to risk your life…”

Tiwa blushes; “Y-Y-Yeah…but…” Uriel puts both of his hands in her shoulders; “Tiwa…you’re one of the most important people I want to protect…I apologize if I made you feel that way…I promise that from today onwards, I will always ask for your help…”

Tiwa turns back to normal as tears come out of her eyes one more time; “Y-Y-You idiot…I forgive you because we’re friends…”

“That’s good to hear…”

“Ahem…” Uriel and Tiwa turn around and look at Fabiola with hands on her hips; “I see that you two are busy…”

Tiwa notices that she and Uriel are in an indecent position and immediately stands up; “I-I-It’s not what it looks like…we were just..”

“We were just strengthening our bonds…” Uriel replies without any expression. Fabiola and Tiwa are left in shock; “You idiot…that makes it sound even dirtier…”

“It does?” Uriel looks clueless. Tiwa and Fabiola sigh with their eyes closed; “You can be so naive…”

Fabiola coughs; “Anyway…Ms. Maria wants to speak to you…”

Uriel and Tiwa look at her with confusion.

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

Ministry of San Juan

Uriel and Tiwa headed towards Maria’s room. After Maria was released from the hospital, she decided to rest in her room for a couple of weeks…she is recovering from the poison…

(KNOCK KNOCK)

“Come in..”

Uriel and Tiwa enter her room. Maria looks at Tiwa; “Tiwa…I haven’t seen you in a long time…how have you been?”

Tiwa looks down; “I’m alright…but I wanted to apologize for not helping you when you were in trouble…”

“Nonsense…Tiwa…the only thing I am glad to see you again…come by more often…”

“I will…” Tiwa smiles. Uriel and Tiwa sit in some chairs that are in the room; “What did you want to talk about mother?”

Maria takes out a sheet of paper and shows it to them. In the paper, there is a drawing of an object. Tiwa and Uriel look at the drawing; “What is that?”

“That object is the necklace of Mictlāntēcutli…the Lord of Mictlan…the Land of the Dead” Uriel replies as he looks at it with surprise.

“Mictlāntēcutli? The necklace of a God?” Tiwa opens her eyes wider. Maria looks at the necklace and begins to explain:

“The Necklace of Mictlāntēcutli, a powerful object created by God himself. Roberto, your father, was investigating the Seven Cities of Gold…the Golden Keys are objects that store enormous amounts of mana. Do you know why?”

Uriel and Tiwa shake their heads. Maria takes out another sheet of paper with Roberto’s investigation; “The reason is because the Golden Keys are not originally from this world…they come from Mictlan…”

“Are you serious?”

“I am…Roberto investigated the origins of the keys and found out their origins…according to him; ‘The Cibola tribe brought them to the world of the living as a way to bring peace to this land’, however…I can’t remember more and most of the files were stolen by Darius…”

“I see…Darius Lucifugus…” Uriel makes a fist as he feels rage. Maria continues to explain; “During my fight with Darius, he scan my mind and managed to break the seal that Roberto made in order for me to keep the secrets…I don’t know why, but Darius has a great interest in those golden keys…Alejandro is in great danger because he is the holder of one…”

“You’re right…however, he is now under the protection of Yggdrasil…he will be alright…”

“Darius probably wants that necklace…I don't know what power it holds but I assure you it has something to do with the Golden Keys…”

“Mictlan…the land of the dead…my tribe knew about its existence…stories about the golden land, stories say that it is a beautiful place to see…but still…my teacher always told me to not disturb the dead and to never go near Mictlan…”

“I see…but still…if we have to go and stop Darius…I will…”

(CLAP)

“I know that you guys have a mission…but let me ask you this…ARE YOU READY FOR PROM?”

“Ehh?” Tiwa looks at Maria surprised. Uriel nods his head; “I promise Valerie that I would go with her…”

“Thank you…you know she’s really popular and she doesn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings…thank you Uriel…and what about you Tiwa?”

Tiwa avoids looking at her nervously; “I-I-I…don’t have a date…”

“Oh my, you don’t…but you’re such a beauty…” Maria replies, Tiwa avoids looking at her; “Well, I’m busy with missions and protecting the borderland….”

“Mija…you also need to have time for your personal life…”

“I know…but…” Tiwa looks down. Uriel looks at Tiwa; “You should invite Alejandro…I bet he’d go with you…”

Tiwa blushes; “EEEHHHH???”

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

Yggdrasil’s Secret Hideout

Below a destroyed restaurant lies Yggdrasil’s secret base…a girl walks down the stairs cautiously…

“Pardon the intrusion…” The girls enter the room. Kasumi smiles; “Oh, welcome Leticia…I take it you weren’t following right?”

Leticia Marino (Age 17) is a very shy girl who has pale skin, long bright red hair and bright greenish eyes. After the events in Mexico, Leticia became a member of Yggdrasil as a “Leaf member”.

“N-N-No…I wasn’t…” Leticia replies nervously. Kasumi smiles; “That’s good…now come closer…”

“Leticia, my dear…welcome…here are some home made cookies” Rosa hugs Leticia and offers her cookies.

Rosa Gutierrez is a 40 year old widow. She has a robust body and a chubby face. She has white skin and red hair. She is an upper trunk member. She is an Upper Trunk member of Yggdrasil.

“T-T-Thank you…Ms. Gutierrez…” Leticia grabs a cookie with a surprised expression. “Oh dear, just call me Rosa…” Rosa smiles as she walks to the computer. Leticia continues to eat the cookie. Kasui chuckles as she looks at Leticia; “Now then, I summoned you here to talk about your future.”

“My future?” Leticia asks with confusion. Kasumi nods; “You see…right after this school year ends…I want you to travel to Japan…”

“JAPAN?!?” Leticia looks surprised. “That’s right, in Japan, there is a city hidden from the world and that’s where Yggdrasil’s members train and develop their skills.” Kasumi shows a map of Japan. Leticia looks at it; “You know, when you mentioned the organization’s name, I thought you were going to be in the Scandinavian regions…”

“Fufufu…we get that a lot…but let me ask you; Would you ever imagine that Yggdrasil’s base is in Japan?”

“No…”

“Correct, our enemies don’t know about it either…that’s why the Primary Roots, our leaders, decided to establish the home base there…”

“Oh wow…” Leticia looks at it and feels nervous; “Kasumi-Senpai…what will happen to the others?”

“They will remain here…our mission is to protect this region…we will stay here of course…”

Leticia lowers her head; “I-I-I don’t think…” Kasumi interrupts her by grabbing her shoulder; “It’s okay…you don’t have to worry about anyone…we will be fine…you will travel to Japan in two weeks so you can start school over there…Alejandro will go with you as well…”

“R-R-Really?”

“That’s right…you and Alejandro will head towards Japan in two weeks…” Kasumi replies with a smile. Rosa looks down thinking; “Alejandro…”

“As for the final topic here…who will be your date for prom?”

Leticia’s face turns red as she screams; “EEHHHH???”

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

Sun City…

The sun begins to set…Alejandro, Chelsea and Carlos walk towards their homes…Alejandro is still sobbing about Valeri’s rejection…

“Oh come on man…you can’t be acting like a baby…so she rejected your invitation…so what? I bet she won’t be the last one…” Carlos chuckles. -PPUUMM- Chelsea hits him in the stomach; “You idiot!”

“Ouch…damn you…” Carlos looks at Chelsea with rage. Chelasea signs; “I bet you forgot about Senpai’s words at the meeting right?”

“I remember them?” Carlos avoids looking as he thinks; “Damn it, I only saw Senpai’s large breasts…that I didn’t hear anything…”

Chelsea looks at Alejandro; “Alejandro and Leticia are set to travel to Japan in two weeks…”

“Ehh? Really?”

“Kasumi-Senpai decided to send them to Japan to train and study…”

“Oh yeah…well aren’t you lucky…” Carlos looks at Alejandro. Alejandro sobs; “I know…I’m excited…”

“Then why are you sobbing you idiot!” Carlos exclaims. “It’s because…I wanted to go with Valerie but she said no…and what if this is the last time I will see her”

“So what? I mean come on…” Carlos shakes his head.

“Big brother…you forgot your notebook…”

Anastasia walks towards them, Alejandro looks at her; “Oh hey Anastasia…thank you..”

Anastasia Lucifugus is a beautiful girl who is about 15 years old. She has black hair with bangs on her forehead. Reddish eyes, pale skin making her look like a doll. She has a slim body. After the incident with the skinwalker, Anastasia started to call Alejandro her big brother.

“Hey, you should go with her..” Chelsea whispers in Alejandro 's ears. Alejandro blushes; “Wait what?”

“Oh come on…you know you want to…” Chelsea teases him. Alejandro looks at Anastasia; “She’s right…but still…I don’t know if…”

“Hey Anastasia, do you have a date for prom?” Chelsea asks Anastasia as she gets closer. Anastasia without any expression shakes her head in disagreement; “No…I do not…”

(BADUMP BADUMP BADUMP)

(GULP)

Alejandro feels nervous as he thinks; “This is bad…I’m not mentally prepared to ask another girl out….what do I do?”

“Oh this is going to be funny if he gets rejected again…” Carlos looks at him as he laughs. Anastasia gets closer; “Is something wrong, big brother?”

“Wahh…” Alejandro panics as he takes a few steps back; “No it’s nothing really…”

Alejandro looks at Anastasia; “Maybe she’ll agree if I ask her…” He takes a big breath and starts speaking; “Hey Anastasia…do you want…to go to the prom…with…”

At that moment, a crimson portal opens and someone comes out of it. Tiwa jumps off the portal and proceeds into punching Alejandro in the stomach.

(PPUUMM)

“BIG BROTHER!”

“WHAT THE…TIWA!!” Carlos and Chelsea look surprised. Uriel comes out of the portal as well. Chelsea looks at him with excitement; “URIEL!”

Tiwa walks towards Alejandro. Alejandro tries to stand up; “What the hell…why did you?”

“SHUT UP!” Tiwa grabs Alejandro from his shirt neck; “Listen…you didn’t contact me when there was problems…we are supposed to be a team right?”

Alejandro is left speechless. Tiwa continues to speak; “You are supposed to call me when you are in trouble too…”

“S-S-Sorry…”

Tiwa’s face turns red as she avoids looking at him. Alejandro blushes; “Wow…I never knew that she looked so cute…”

“L-L-Listen…would you like to go…to the prom with me?”

(BBBAADDUUMMPPP)

Anastasia opens her eyes wider as she tries to speak; “W-W-Wa…”

Alejandro looks at her surprised; “She asked me?” He notices her embarrassed face and smiles:

“S-S-Sure…I would be happy…”

“Really?” Tiwa looks happy, Anastasia looks at them with shock as she whispers; “No…”

“Damn you Alejandro, a cute girl asked you out…I’m so jealous…” Carlos looks envious and Chelsea chuckles; “Oh wow, so straight forward…”

Tiwa let’s go Alejandro; “Good…then I will see you on Friday…” Tiwa runs and disappears in the portal. Uriel walks towards the portal as he lifts his hand; “I’ll see you later.”

Uriel closes the portal. Chelsea takes out a lollipop; “Now that was unexpected…”

“Yeah…” Alejandro laughs; “Now I got a date…hell yeah!”

“Damn you…” Carlos punches Alejandro. -PUUMM- “STOP SHOWING IT TO MY FACE!”

“Oh yeah…”

(PUM PUM PUM)

Carlos and Alejandro begin to punch themselves with Chelsea and Anastasia observing them.

“WOW…THIS GUYS ARE SO STUPID…RIGHT ANASTASIA?” Chelsea looks at Anastasia. Anastasia is looking at the ground with a preoccupied expression. Chelsea touches her arm:

“Hey, are you okay?”

Anastasia comes to her senses; “Oh yes…sorry…I was just thinking about something…” Anastasia looks at Alejandro. Chelsea notices; “Oh, I see…fufufu…very well…I think it’s time to get going…”

Chelsea approaches Carlos. -PPUUMM- She punches him in the stomach and knocks him semi-conscious; “Come on now…time to go…I will see you tomorrow Alejandro…”

Chelsea waves at them as she drags and unconscious Carlos with her.

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

Alejandro and Anastasia walk down the street as they head to the apartment…

“I can’t believe I have a date to prom…” Alejandro walks happily alongside Anastasia. Anastasia looks concerned, she trembles as she looks at Alejandro:

“Big brother…no, Alejandro…what were you going to ask me?”

“Eh?” Alejandro immediately remembers that he was going to ask Anastasia to go to the prom with him.

Alejandro immediately turns red and acts nervous:

“Oh yeah, about that…please forget about it…it wasn’t important…”

(BBAAADUUMMPP)

Anastasia feels a pain in her heart, she slowly puts her hand on her chest:

“What is this feeling?”

“Anastasia, is something wrong?” Alejandro tries to grab her shoulder. Anastasia takes a step away from him.

Both of them look at each other in an awkward position. Anastasia returns to her senses; “I’m sorry…but…”

(BBBZZZ)

Anastasia receives a message; “I’m sorry but I must go back to my home..” Anastasia runs away from Alejandro; “ANASTASIA…WAIT!”

Anastasia disappears from his sighs. Alejandro scratches his head; “What just happened here?”

Alejandro continues walking as he thinks; “Oh well…I think she has a lot on her mind…”

(RRRAAWWW)

Alejandro hears a loud sound. A roar coming a few blocks away. Alejandro smiles; “OH YEAH!” He runs as fast as he can as he grabs his right arm:

“IT’S SHOW TIME!”

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

“Ha…Ha…Ha…” Anastasia runs towards her mansion; “What was that feeling? Why am I feeling like this? What is happening to me?”

Anastasia stops in a corner and breathes heavily:

“Why?Why can't I stop feeling sadness? Was it because he was asked by another girl?”

Anastasia remembers Alejandro’s face, tears comes out of her eyes:

“Why? Why am I crying? I thought I could never cry because…because I am…”

“Oh…even if you are…it doesn’t mean you can’t have emotions…”

(BAADDUUMMPP)

Anastasia hears a familiar voice. She turns to a dark alley and sees a figure approaching her with a pair of red eyes; “Oh my…are those tears?”

Anastasia opens her eyes wider; “Why are you here?”

“You haven’t seen me in a long time and you ask me that? Come on, you should at least be more excited when seeing you real brother…” The figure comes out of the shadow and smiles at her. Anastasia takes one step back:

“Master Aleister…”

Aleister Lucifugus is the son of Darius Lucifugus, He has white skin, thin body, black hair and reddish eyes. He is Anastasia’s step brother and the former Student Council President.

“Did you just call me master?” Aleister gets closer to Anastasia hugs her; “Why do you keep calling me maser?”

“B-B-Because you are my master…”

“Hahaha…you call me that but you call Alejandro your big brother? I thought you loved me?”

Anastasia gets even more nervous; “B-B-But master…” Aleister releases a small aura as he looks Anastasia in the eyes; “Maybe I should be more aggressive and teach you a lesson…don’t you think?”

Anastasia is paralyzed, Aleister lifts his hand. Anatasia returns to her composure; “I am sorry if I made you angry, I will accept any punishment…”

Aleister puts his hand on her head and laughs; “Just kidding…come on Anastasia, I would never have harmed you…you're special to me…”

Anastasia trembles, Aleister continues speaking; “You know…ever since you have been hanging with Alejandro, you’ve been different…you have more emotions…I guess it was a good thing to leave you behind…tell me something, do you love Alejandro?”

(BADUMP)

Anastasia opens her eyes wider; “I don’t understand that question…”

“Oh, so you’re playing dumb ehh…” Aleister opens a portal; “Come with me…”

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

In another part of Sun City…

(PPUUMM CCCRRASSSHHH)

The sun has completely set, the moon shines bright in the sky. A portal opens in the top of a building, Aleister and Anastasia come out of the portal. Anastasia looks around; “Where are we?”

“You’ll see…”

(PPPPUUMMM)

An explosion gets their attention. Anastasia looks down; “What is happening down there?” They look down and see two figures fighting, Anastasia looks in shock; “A-A-Alejandro?”

Alejandro is fighting a Sombra using his esper suit. He is wearing a black short sleeve shirt with a short sleeve black jacket with silver borders and black military pants with silver military boots.

The Sombra has a feline body with a gorilla head. The marking around the body consists of circular patterns.

(PPPUUUMMM)

The Sombra tries to attack Alejandro, Alejandro dodges with ease; “Heh…you’re too slow…” Alejandro charges and punches the Sombra multiple times. -PUM PUM PUM- Alejandro punches the Sombra multiple times.

The Sombra tries to bite him, Alejandro grabs him with force; “Oh, so you want to bite me huh…take this!!”

(PPPUUMMM)

Alejandro does a suplex to the Sombra, creating a small crater. -CLAP CLAP CLAP- “Fascinating, my friend has become stronger since the last time I saw him…don’t you agree?”

Aleister notices the bright light in Anastasia’s eyes; “You’ve become strong…”

“Uh-oh” Alejandro jumps back as the Sombra stands up and tackles him, sending him flying to a house.

(CCCRRAASSHHH)

“Alejandro…” Anastasia tries to move forward. “Oh no…you can’t do that…” Aleister stops her and holds her; “Have some faith in him…”

(PPPUUMM)

Alejandro comes out walking unharmed. He heads towards the Sombra with a smile; “You know, I have been wanting to practice this technique with someone now…get ready!”

(RRRAAWWW)

The Sombra charges with force, Alejandro gathers mana in his right arm; “Alright then…time for my new technique…” Alejandro closes his eyes thinking; “Visualize the katana…” Alejandro imagines a katana, instead of making a fist, he lifts all of his fingers.

Alejandro opens his eyes and charges straight to the Sombra; “Take this…”

(SSSSLLLAASSHHH)

Alejandro cuts the Sombra in half and purifies it completely. Alejandro takes a deep breath:

“Silver Sword”

(CLAP CLAP CLAP)

“SPLENDID, SPLENDID! HE HAS BECOME A WORTHY RIVAL…HE IS PERFECT!” Aleister looks overjoyed:

“Anastasia, no wonder you have fallen for him…he may be your older brother model that you desired but deep down, you desired him am I right?”

“...” Anastasia doesn't say a word. Aleister pats her head; “I thought so…come along now! We have work to do…”

Aleister opens the portal and walks towards it. Anastasia with a tear in her eye; “Alejandro…”

Alejandro looks towards that spot; “I had the feeling that someone was looking…”

(BADUMP)

“This sensation…why am I feeling this…this feeling…it is fear…” Alejandro looks at the moon as a drop of sweat falls to the ground.
