Advertisement
A few moments before… Xochimilco
Bella, a mysterious old lady, gave El Muerto a sphere, that sphere contains the power of a God…El Muerto decided to speak with the kids…
(DRIP DRIP DROP DROP)
Rain falls with great intensity, the house where the kids are located has hole and it’s in bad shape, almost to the verge of collapsing.
“Big brother…I’m hungry…” Xochitl looks at her empty plate. Adihe looks down; “I’m sorry sister, that bread was all I had…”
SSS….SOMEONE IS COMING…
“Quetzi, who is it?” The snake crawls to the door. The door slowly opens, a hooded figure stands in front. Lightning falls revealing El Muerto’s face, the kids look scared, the Serpent grows bigger to the size of the room:
STAY BACK…SSSSS….
“The Mighty God Kukulkan…to think a God ended up like this…”
YOU KNOW WHO I AM?
“Of course…incredible for you to understand my language”
I am God…language isn’t an issue…
“Quetzi,what is he saying?” Adihe asks, El Muerto looks at the kids and chuckles; “So, the ancient language of the Aztecs, that woman was right…”
“I came here to help you…” El Muerto removes the hood and the mask. The kids are surprised. Quetzi, the serpent reduces its size; YOU…YOUR FACE IS FAMILIAR…
“Like I said, I came here to help…here…” El Muerto, who is now unmasked, has a feminine voice, extends the arm and leaves a basket filled with food. The kids hesitate at first. El Muerto says; “It’s not poisonous…”
El Muerto grabs an apple and bites it. -GGRRRROOOWWLLL- The kids, who are hungry, look at Quetzi. Quetzi nods in agreement, the kids run and eat the food in the basket.
WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?
“I want your help…you see, a figure named El Charro Negro has come here in search for a treasure, a golden key…”

Golden Key? You mean from the Golden City of Halona?
“That’s right, and he came here with a group of people who threatened this place…a few of them are known as the Cortes…”
“Cortes…did that person say Cortes?” Adihe stands up and goes to El Muerto; “Where are they? Take me to them…I want to kill them…”
“I’m sorry, I don’t understand your language…”
Adihe enough…you must finish eating and let me speak…
Adihe continues to eat. El Muerto continues to speak; “They are here to destroy this environment…the Cortes have come to finish them off…the last descendants of the Aztecs, am I right?”
You are…I cannot permit that…however, I was reduced to this state by the Red Witch…
“I see…then how about we make a deal…you will help me find the golden key in order for me to protect it, and in return, I will give you the power to stop them…they are a threat and a common enemy…I also promise to protect the children…”
Quetzi doesn’t say a thing, Quetzi looks at the children eating and smiling; I accept…
“Excellent, then, here you go…” El Muerto throws the sphere to Quetzi; “I suggest you go outside…”
Quetzi goes outside. El Muerto takes out the Gem of Kukulkan and fires its power to the orb; “Now break the orb and absorb the power…”
(CCRRRAAACCCKKK)
Quetzi bites the orb. -BBBBOOOMMMM- Golden mana comes out and forms a pillar illuminating the sky. Quetzi slowly absorbs the mana; This is my power, this is the grace of the Gods…
“It is, but only a fraction…that’s the only thing I got for now…”
That’s alright…I need it so I can defeat them…I want revenge on those who called themselves Guerra, Conquista, Isabella and Cortes…they will know my fury…
“Excellent, I will be on my way…here…money for your troubles, go sleep in another place…” El Muerto puts back the hood and the mask and opens a portal. El Muerto slowly disappears as he says; “I will contact you tomorrow…”

(BBBOOOMMM GGYYYAAHHH)
Uriel uses his holy wind to stop the shock wave. Alejandro, who is holdin Marjorie screams; “WHAT’S THAT POWER”
The shockwave stops and the pillar disappears. Uriel opens a portal and walks in it. Alejandro tries to stop him:
“Uriel wait…”
“Alejandro, be careful…” Uriel closes the portal.
The woman in white disappears as well leaving the student in shock at what just happened.
Meanwhile…
In Room 510, El Muerto paid a visit to the Professors…
(PPUUMMM)
“Gyahh, sto please…you’re going to kill him…” Dr. Escobar says as she witnesses El Muerto stepping over Dr. Ortiz. El Muerto begins to speak:
“Now, listen, here are the lists of the students who will go to Xochimilco…I need you to follow my instructions or I will kill you…”
“Y-Y-Yes I will…please, let me go…”
“Good…don’t forget, I will be watching…” El Muerto disappears. Dr. Ortiz and Dr. Escobar are left with no choice as they see each other with fear.
El Muerto appears near the lake as he looks at the moon; “Everything is set…now for the plan to begin…and we will achieve the Golden Key…”
Uriel stands on the ceiling and looks at the horizon thinking; “What was that power? and that woman…What is going on here?”
“AAAAAYYYYY MMMMIIIIISSS HHHHIIIIJJJJOOOOOSSS”
In another location, the woman in white appears in front of a house.
(BADUMP BADUMP BADUMP)
A small child wakes up, hears the cry and gets hypnotized. The child slowly comes out of the house.
(BADUMP BADUMP BADUMP)
The woman grabs the child and disappears in the rain without a trace.
