Outside the Hotel…

Uriel decided to follow the crow. He walks outside to see how his body reacts. He walks near the lake stretching his arms and legs. The crow stops moving forward, Uriel notices something strange.

Suddenly the rain that was falling stopped, there was no wind and the people and animals surrounding Uriel also froze.

“So you finally showed up eh, Bella” Uriel chuckles as he turns around to see an old woman standing in the middle of the lake walking towards him.

“You survived muchacho, my girls and I were gambling on whether you lived or died because of the seal release. I must congratulate you, the souls that were in the Island pass on along with Marina.”

Bella smiles as she arrives at solid ground along with the cat and the crow .

“I must thank you for your help Bella or should I say Isabella.” Uriel changes to a serious tone.

Bella begins to laugh; “Very good muchacho.”

She and the two animals shine, transforming into their original forms.

“What gives us away, Paloma? Meow.” The cat smiles as she stands on her two feet.

Carla the cat transforms into a young girl with the appearance of a teenager. She has white skin, short black hair with the cat ears sticking out of her head, blue eyes, no human ears, she is wearing a white button shirt, a black colored jacket, a red short skirt with long black socks as well as long black boots and a slim body.

“It was probably my fault. Chirp” The crow also speaks transforming into a human.

Paloma the crow turns into a girl about the same age as Carla. She has white skin, long black hair, a long black sleeveless dress with boots, yellowish eyes and slim body.

“Allow me to introduce myself properly, my name is Isabella the Red Witch.”

Bella slowly transforms. The old woman turns into a younger appearance resembling a 35 year old woman. She has long red hair, hazel colored eyes, and a well-developed body with big breasts. She is wearing a long red dress, long red sleeves, high heels and a large red witch hat.

Uriel feels the omnipotent mana that Isabella releases, he smiles and greet her properly:

“It’s a pleasure to meet you…although I have a feeling that I’ve seen you before…”

“Fufufu, well I am your predessessor’s lover after all…” Isabella chuckles, Uriel opens his eyes wider and chuckles as well:

“I see now…”

“I have seen you many times in the past, although the last time was during the Vampire incident in Jalisco…”

Uriel changes his expression to a serious one; “Sorry, I don’t remember that night…”

“Of course you do…after all, your lover, Serena left you for another man isn’t that right?”

-TCH- Uriel gets angry. “Gyhaha…mother, your teasing him too much…” Carla goes towards Uriel and rubs her body in his legs like a cat.

“You’re right, but seeing his reaction gets me excited…” Isabella licks her lips. Uriel sighs and looks at Paloma who hides behind Isabella blushing:

“Thank you for the help, I´m sorry you got burned because of me.”

Paloma opens her eyes wider and avoids looking at him; “N-N-No problem.”

Uriel looks at Isabella; “Why did you do that to Marina and Cortes?”

Uriel asks furious, Isabella smiles at him:

“Well Muchacho, that is something that had to be done, it was his destiny.”

“I see, so that’s why Vasco and the Horseman of Conquest brainwashed the Natives in the area?”

“That’s right…we were instructed to do so…”

“Instructed by who?”

“There are things in this universe, that you don’t need to know muchacho…In truth, Hernan Cortes was murderer who came here for Conquest…I did him a favor, creating a false personality so he could obtain the trust of the Aztecs…as for you question, I will keep it a secret…”

Isabella walks closer to Uriel. -BADUMP- Uriel feels paralyzed; “I can’t…move…” Isabella holds him and smells him; “Mmm…I love the smell of a young man…however, you’re not pure anymore, if you know what I mean…”

Uriel looks away embarrassed; “Leave me alone…”

“Fufufu…those girls will be disappointed knowing that someone else took away your virgi…”

“Shut up…” Uriel struggles and tries to move. “Fufufu, who knows, maybe someday…you will become my lover…”

“I doubt it…”

“Oh, I see that you haven’t forgotten Serena right? and what’s this? You have another girl that your heart loves…”

“I told you to stay quiet…”

“Marjorie Bellerose…am I right?”

(BBBOOMMM)

Uriel releases crimson mana. -SNAP- Isabella snaps her fingers, canceling Uriel’s mana; “Calm down, I am just teasing you…but there is something you need to know about her…”

“She canceled my mana with just a snap?” Uriel looks at her nervously. Isabella with a serious expression sighs; “I must tell you something that happened on the day you fought Quetzalcoatl…”

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

Two days before…

Bella sensed two intruders at the island…as she walked to the shore, she discovered that it was Uriel and Marjorie…both of them seemed unconscious…however, Marjorie woke up first…

"Uriel…Uriel…answer me…" Marjorie tries to wake him up. She touches his abdomen and feels warm; "This feeling…it can't be…"

Marjorie notices Uriel bleeding nonstop. Marjorie cries; " No…Uriel…I must…heal him…” Marjorie puts her hands on his wounds, she closes her eyes; “Cure de Glace Céleste” (Celestial Ice Cure)

(CCRRAASHHH)

Marjorie tries to heal him, however, her ice breaks apart. Marjorie cries; “NO…Uriel…please don’t die…” Marjorie tries to heal him multiple times, she performs CPR by giving him mouth to mouth breathing and tries to get his heart beating once more.

(BADUMP BADUMP)

“Should you go and help them? Mother?” Carla, in her cat form, asks Bella (Isabella); “I supposed I could…Maybe I will…” Suddenly, Bella and her family notice something strange.

A strange black aura coming out of Marjorie. “Mother, what is that?” Carla and Paloma get behind Bella.

“I don’t know…” Bella looks surprised as well. The black aura intensifies, creating a small air current. Marjorie's hair slowly turns into pitch black as the mana coming out of her increases; “I will not let you die…my love…”

“Her voice changed…” Bella looks at her with awe; “This sensation…it’s familiar and nostalgic…”

Marjorie’s blue eyes, convert into a dark green color as she puts her hands on Uriel’s wound one more time; “Sanatio” (Healing)

In a blink of an eye, Marjorie closes Uriel’s wound, Uriel breathes one more time and his heart starts beating once again. Marjorie kisses him in the mouth; “Stay alive…my love…”

At that moment, her black hair turns back to normal, her green eyes turn back to blue as she slowly passes out. Bella walks closer with her familiars; “What a chilling sensation…”

“What was that mother?” Paloma asks as she flies above them.

“I don’t know dear…but it’s dangerous…this mana, I know of a person who had this type of mana but she died centuries ago…”

“W-W-Who are you?’ Marjroie opens her eyes a little. Bella stands in front of her and lifts her body; “I am an ally dear…”

“U-U-Uriel…please help him…” Marjorie passes out completely. Bella chuckles; “Her appearance and mana…there is no doubt on my mind…welcome back…”

Bella walks using a spell to make Uriel and Marjorie float as they head towards the Island of Dolls.
