《CRIMSON MOON (SHORT CHAPTERS)》Chapter 157: "I've Found You"
Advertisement
As they arrive on the third floor and around the corner where the kid’s room is located. Alejandro looks at it and asks; “So, that’s the room huh?”
Alejandro sees Tiwa walking away; “Where are you going?”
“I showed you the room, I’m done for tonight...Good luck okay…”
“Tiwa wait, about what happened earlier, I’m sorry...I”
“Forget about it...forget everything...focus on the mission…” Tiwa begins to run, she has tears in her eyes and her face is red as she thinks; “I can’t believe I almost crossed the line...I’m such an idiot…”
“Tiwa…” Alejandro takes a deep breath and opens the door; “What is going on here?” Alejandro asks as he sees Stefan on the ground with a bruise on his head and a toy airplane next to him. Carlos holding the screaming:
“TELL ME WHAT YOU SAW DAMN IT!”
“Hey Alejandro, the mission isn’t going well…” Stefan says as he closes his eyes. Alejandro gets mad and screams; “YOU TWO GET OUT!”
Alejandro forces the two of them to get out; “Sheesh those idiots...are you okay?”
Alejandro asks the kid, the kid ignores him and looks at the window, Alejandro smiles and sits; “I see...so, you don’t want to talk ehh...well, I'm just going to play with this toy plane…”
Alejandro begins to move it around catching the child’s curiosity. Alejandro, who only moves his right hand says; “Want to see a magic trick?”
Alejandro gathers a little manna in the shape of wind and begins to make the plane float by itself; “This is something that Valerie taught me…”
“WWWOOOWW!’ The child immediately runs to his side; “How are you doing that?”
“I told you, it’s a magic trick…” Alejandro makes the plane fly higher to the ceiling and move in circles making the child look with enthusiasm. Alejandro begins to say; “My name is Alejandro and you?”

“My name is Luis…”
“Nice to meet you Luis...here…” Alejandro makes the plane land on Luis’ hand; “That was awesome…”
“Right?” Alejandro says with a smile. Alejandro and Luis begin to talk as Alejandro says; “Let me tell you the story of the Silver Hero…”
The Silver Hero is the story that Alejandro’s Grandfather used to tell him...if you want to learn more about the story...read Vol. 1- Chapter 0...
Wind blows faster...outside the Hospital, in the Shadows, a being slowly walks towards it…
After one hour, Luis and Alejandro were already friends. Alejandro begins to ask him; “So, why are you here?”
Luis changes his expression from a smile to a sad one; “My sister was taken by the Boogeyman…I was only joking when I said that the Boogeyman would get her...I didn’t know that he actually existed...he ate Corina as well…”
“Who 's Corina?”
“She was my babysitter...she was really mean to us and always hit my sister and I...I always wished that she would be punished but not like this…” Luis begins to cry; “Nobody believes me...they think I’m crazy...Lucia...my sister, was she eaten by the Boogeyman?”
Alejandro puts his hand on Luis’ head; “Don’t worry...I do believe you and we will find your sister and stop the Boogeyman…”
“Really? You can?”
“We will, you see, I want to be like the Silver Hero one day...and I got some strong friends that will help me…”
“Alejandro, you’re so awesome…” Luis pulls up his sleeve revealing a cut; “The Boogeyman did this to me...he said that he would come for me…”
Alejandro is in shock upon seeing that scratch; “I see...so, he is coming for you huh…” Alejandro stands up and points at himself; “Don’t worry...I, the Silver Hero...will protect you…”

“Really...Thank you…” -KNOCK KNOCK- “Luis...it’s time for bed…” A nurse enters the room. Luis is scared and says; “Alejandro...don’t leave me…” Alejandro smiles; “Hey, don’t worry, I’ll go to the restroom and come back okay...there is nothing to worry about…”
Alejandro leaves the room and heads to the restroom. Carlos and Stefan are waiting for him; “So, did he say something?”
“Yeah...he is the next victim…” Alejandro says to Stefan. Carlos sighs and says; “I guess, this won’t be easy…”
“I’ll go to the restroom...keep an eye on him...he said that the Boogeyman would come for him…”
“Is that so? Well, then, if the Boogeyman is real...then I want to meet him…” Carlos says with a determined expression.
Tiwa sits outside a bench as she thinks; “I was so stupid...what was I thinking…”
“Mistress Tiwa...we have trouble…” Jana the serpent says to Tiwa, Tiwa stands up and asks; “What’s going on?”
“There are high-levels of manna in the child’s room…”
“Don’t tell me…”
In the room, the nurse prepares Luis for him to go to sleep and underneath his bed. A figure appears and smiles. A pair of yellow and sharp teeth showing as the beast says:
“I’ve Found You!”
***************************************************************************
Luis looks at the window really scared. He looks at the nurse and asks:
“Excuse me, can you look under the bed and see if the Boogeyman is not there?”
The nurse chuckles; “The Boogeyman?” Luis nods in agreement, the nurse pats his head:
“Silly boy, the Coco or Boogeyman like you call it just a story that parents tell to keep the children from misbehaving but oh well...if that makes you happy…”
The nurse takes a look under the bed, there is nothing, she smiles; “See...there is nothing under the bed….” Suddenly is being pulled under the bed. She struggles and tries to run but a hand grabs her and pulls her under:
“NNOOOOO KKKYYYAAAHHHH”
Luis is frightened by what he just saw. He only hears the nurse screaming. After a few moments, Luis tries to look under the bed, he moves a little and sees blood coming out of the bed.
Luis looks up and sees a shadow of a being behind him. He turns around slowly and his eyes open wider as the Boogeyman is standing behind him. Lighting flashes down revealing his monstrous face:
“Hello...Luis…”
