Hotel Mexica, April 19th
The Last Day in Mexico…The Last day to do something interesting…the students decided to do interesting activities…The first part will focus on the Boy’s experience as they go to the Lucha Libre show…The group eats breakfast at the Hotel Restaurant…
“A LUCHA LIBRE SHOW! THAT SOUNDS FUN!” Angel shouts showing a poster of the show. The poster has the roster of all the legendary Luchadores.
“No way…El Jaguar…my favorite wrestler will be participating…let’s go…” Antoine looks at everyone with excitement. “YEAH!” Alejandro, Stephan, Crespo agree as well.
“Eww…no thanks, we’ll pass…” The twins look with disgust. The other girls decide to not go as well.
“Hohoho…it looks interesting, I guess all the guys will go…what do you say Adihe…do you want to go?”
Adihe looks at the poster with enthusiasm, he looks at Dr. Ortiz; “I guess…I can go..”
“Then it’s settle…what about you Raul?” Dr. Ortiz looks at Raul. Raul puts his laptop down; “Sure why not…”
“Holy cow…Raul accepted…” Alejandro looks confused.
“And you Uriel?”
“I’ll pass…to be honest, I just want to rest my injuries more…” Uriel stands up; “Bring me a souvenir…” Uriel leaves the restaurant.
“Very well, we will head to the show…and we will return by 9pm to go to the concert at the Zocalo tonight…” Dr. Ortiz explains to Dr. Escobar; “Have fun dear…”
And so…the group of men consisted of Alejandro, Angel, Crespo, Antoine, Stephan, Raul, Adihe and Dr. Ortiz went to Mexico City to watch the Lucha Libre Fiesta!
The Arena of Mexico, also called "Cathedral of Wrestling" is the most important stage of Wrestling worldwide. All the spotlights point to this great stage, which is the main house of the World Wrestling Council and where the most important wrestling battles in history have taken place. All fighters want to fight in the Arena Mexico because in its ring, many star fighters have become legends.
“RUDOS RUDOS RUDOS!” The crowd chants as they see the wrestling show. The guys are sitting in the middle rows, located at the center so they can have a better view.
“What is rudos?” Adihe asks Raul, who is sitting next to him. “Rudos are the bad guys in the world of Lucha Libre…they are cheaters and don’t have honor…”
“Oh wow…” Adihe looks surprised, Alejandro stares at Raul; “Is he feeling alright, I mean, he is usually the quiet type…I guess he loves Lucha Libre…”
The serpent comes out of Adihe’s shirt and gets into his shoulder; “This looks like the rituals the Ancient civilizations used to determined the champion of the tribe…it brings back memories…”
“I’m glad you’re enjoying it…Quetzi…”
“YYEEEAHHH! TAKE HIM DOWN!” Stephan cheers, Alejandro looks at him; “I guess he’s feeling better…I feel bad that we had to erase his memory a second time…but it’s for the best…”
“Ehh p$%#” Angel and Crespo shout, Alejandro feels embarrased; “Aww man, those are hardcore words, I wonder if the old ladies next to me hear…”
“VETE A LA #%@”
“ESE WEY ME LA [email protected]$#^#”
“VALES PARA PURA [email protected]#$$”
Alejandro looks dumbfounded as he sees the old ladies next to him shouting bad words and throwing the middle fingers to the Luchadores.
“Hohoho, they are so lovely aren’t they Alejandro?” Dr. Ortiz chuckles. Alejandro laughs as well; “It feels great to have a normal day…”

After one hour…the main event was about to start…
The announcer steps in the ring; “Damas y caballeros, es hora de nuestro evento principal... levántense para saludar al héroe de todos los niños, el ídolo de todos los hombres y el deseo de toda mujer. El campeón mundial...el más fuerte y más veloz...La leyenda...EEEEELLLLL JJJAAGGUUUAARRR” (Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for our main event... rise up to salute every boy 's hero, every man's idol and every woman 's wish. The world champion...the strongest and fastest...The legend...EEEEELLLLL JJJAAGGUUUAARRR)
-♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫-
“JAGUAR JAGUAR JAGUAR”
Music plays, the lights go off with only one pointing at the entrance. Soon, real jaguars come out of the ring with dozens of birds flying around the arena. Soon, a smokescreen appears and a silhouette walks to the entrance, at that moment, El Jaguar enters the arena creating a commotion.
El Jaguar is a tall man with muscular body, he has brown skin. He is wearing a golden luchador mask with jaguar features, and wrestling gear with long boots. He walks to the ring with a cape and shows his champion belt.
-TCH- “He is wearing my brother’s face…so annoying…” Quetzi looks at it with disgust, making Adihe chuckle.
“YEEAAHH JAGUAR!” Antoine cheers with all his might.
“And his opponents…” The lights turn off once more, -♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫- Music similar to a horror film plays across the arena. The lights turn red and sounds of thunder make Adihe nervous; “What is happening?”
“Relax, it’s part of the show…” Angel pats his head, Adihe looks at Angel. Suddenly, he opens his eyes wider; “AAHHHH”
Adihe screams, Angel turns around and sees a demonic face behind him; “MUEVETE NIÑO!” The demonic being grabs Adihe, pushing Angel away. Adihe gets taken away:
“AHH HELP ME!”
“AADDIIHHHEEE!” Alejandro follows him; “GIVE BACK ADIHE!”
“HAHAHA!” The demonic figure laughs as he approaches the ring. Suddenly, the lights turn on. “Ahí están, los rudos más fuertes…Los Chamucos!” ("There they are, the strongest rude... The Chamucos!") The announcer presents the three luchadores.
The three luchadores have the shirtless wrestling attire with a luchador mask. One is black with horns, the other is red with a tongue sticking out. The final is half red and half black with horns and the tongue sticking out.
(BBBOOOOO BBBOOOO)
The crowd boos the Chamucos. One of them grabs the microphone; “Hemos secuestrado a este niño…No lo liberaremos, al menos que Jaguar pueda vencernos…” (We have kidnapped this child…We will not release him, unless Jaguar can defeat us…)
Jaguar grabs a microphone; “Acepto su reto…pero no lo puedo hacer yo solo…necesito la ayuda de alguien del público…” (I accept your challenge…but I can't do it by myself…I need the help of someone from the public…)
“Uh-oh…” Alejandro notices that he is visible, he tries to step back. El Jaguar notices Alejandro; “This kid…” El Jaguar points at Alejandro:
“TU…TU SERAS MI PAREJA DE LUCHA!” (YOU… YOU WILL BE MY LUCHA PARTNER)
“YYEEAAHHH” The crowd cheers for Alejandro. “YEAH, GO GET THEM ALEJANDRO!” Antoine cheers. Angel and Crespo look surprised. Stephan takes out his cellphone; “This is going to be epic…” Raul chuckles; “Oh wow…he’s going to get his butt kicked…”

“Adihe…please be brave…” Dr. Ortiz looks preoccupied. “Let me go you imbeciles…” Adihe struggles. One of the Chamucos scratches his head; “Que está diciendo este niño, no lo entiendo…” (What is this child saying, I don't understand…)
“Quien sabe, solo sujetalo…” (Who knows, just hold him tight…) The other comments as the crowd cheers for Alejandro.
“ALEJANDRO!” Adihe screams for help. Alejandro notices the frightened child, he sighs and fills himself up with courage; “I guess I have no choice…” Alejandro takes out a luchador mask he bought before entering the arena:
“I wanted to give this to Uriel…but oh well…”
The mask is from the legendary luchador; El Santo. Alejandro puts it on and crosses the protective barrier and walks to the ring.
El Jaguar helps him get up out the ring; “Gracias por la ayuda!” (Thanks for the help!)
“No hay problema” (No problem!)
“Muy bien muchacho, dinos tu nombre!” (Alright boy, tell us your name!) The announcer gives the microphone to Alejandro.
Alejandro points to the sky; “Yo soy a justiciero mas poderoso, la gente me conoce como el Heroe Plateado…” (I am the most powerful vigilante, people know me as the Silver Hero…)
“Activate, Silver Mustang; Parcial”
A bright silver light shines throughout the arena, the light turns off. Alejandro’s attire slightly changes as the silver veins from his right arm spread throughout his body, transforming the mask, creating a mustang image on his right side.
“WOAH! AHÍ LO TIENE, EL HÉROE PLATEADO” (WOAH! THERE YOU HAVE IT, THE SILVER HERO)
El Jaguar looks at him impressed; “Hey kid…nice transformation…” Alejandro notices him speaking in English.
“ES HORA DE LA LUCHA” (IT’S LUCHA TIME!)
(RING, RING)
The bell rings and Alejandro and El Jaguar run to attack the Chamucos. The Chamucos attack as well, with one staying behind to guard Adihe.
El Jaguar dodges one of the Chamucos’s attack and grabs him, making a lock in his arm.
“Adihe, I’m coming….what the….” Alejandro tries to reach Adihe but one the Chamucos grabs him and slams him into the ring.
(PPPUUMMM)
“No va a ser tan fácil…niño…” (It's not going to be that easy... boy…) The Chamuco grabs Alejandro’s legs and applies a wrestling move called the “sharpshooter”
“AAAAHHHH” Alejandro screams in pain but he doesn’t surrender; “I need to break free…”
Alejadro struggles to break free. El Jaguar fights the other Chamuco, the Chamuco uses the ropes as an impulse and hits El Jaguar with a lariat.
(PPPUUMMM)
“JAGUAR JAGUAR JAGUAR”
El Jaguar stands up and grabs El Chamuco’s arm:
“Toma esto!” (Take this!)
El Jaguar lifts Chamuco with one arm and throws him to the corner of the ring. El Jaguar immediately jumps into the top rope and dives performing an “Elbow drop”
“YYEEAHHHH” The crowd cheers with excitement. Alejandro gathers all of his strength in his abdomen and arms; “LET GO!” Alejandro breaks from the lock and pushes Chamuco away.
“NICE JOB KID!” El Jaguar shouts. The two Chamucos stand up, the third Chamuco joins them:
“VAMOS A TERMINAR ESTO!” (LET’S FINISH THIS!)
The Chamucos charge together, El Jaguar pushes Alejandro, The Chamucos grab El Jaguar and perform a tag team maneuver called the “Aided powerbomb”
(PPPUUUMMM)
The third Chamuco climbs to the top rope preparing to perform a dive. Alejandro tries to think; “What do I do?”
“Alejandro, the rope..” Adihe shouts. Alejandro comprehends and immediately hits the rope. This action unbalances the Chamuco who falls to the ground. Alejandro charges straight at one of the Chamucos and applies a “lariat.”
(PPPUUUMMM)
“ALRIGHT!” The guys scream upon seeing Alejandro winning. El Jaguar jumps on top of one of the Chamucos.
(BOOOOOMM)
“1,2,….” The referee counts however Chamuco breaks free from the count. The Chamuco who fell sneaks up and grabs El Jaguar from behind and does a suplex. The move was effective.
Alejandro is left fighting the three of them; “Uh-oh…” Alejandro gets off the ring trying to think. However he is surrounded; “No hay a donde correr nino…” (There is no way to run…boy)
“Alejandro!” Adihe screams, Alejandro sees for an instant the snake camouflage near one of the Chamuco’s feet. “I got it..thanks...Adihe…” Alejandro runs straight to the Chamuco; “Mis piernas…que pasa?” (My legs…what’s happening?)
Quetzi ties the Chamuco’s legs, Alejandro uses the opportunity to take him down with a lariat. Alejandro gets back into the ring, the Chamucos follow him. Suddenly, El Jaguar grabs one of them from behind:
“JAGUAR SUPLEX!”
(PPPUUUUMMM)
El Jaguar takes down the second Chamuco. “ONE MORE!” Alejandro uses the ropes as an impulse, El Jaguar does the same.
Alejandro hits the Chamuco’s legs, and El Jaguar hits him with a lariat, performing a perfect tag team move.
El Jaguar runs and climbs the post of the ring and jumps on top of Chamuco doing a 360 degree splash.
“1,2,3” The referee counts to three declaring Alejandro and El Jaguar the winners.
“YYEAAHHHH!” The crowd cheers with excitement. Alejandro walks to the corner where Adihe is and extends his hand; “Come on…time to go…” Adihe grabs his hand feeling excited.
El Jaguar carries Adihe and lifts Alejandro 's hand. They celebrate for the victory as the crowd cheers with excitement. Adihe smiles as he feels overjoyed.
“JAGUAR JAGUAR JAGUAR!”
“You did well kid…I suggest you keep training, as members of Yggdrasil,we must always improvise…”
“Wait what?” Alejandro notices a crest on El Jaguar 's arm. He looks at the Chamucos who give him the thumbs up and show him their crest on their arms.
El Jaguar gives him a thumbs up; “Say hi to Kasumi for me…”
After the show…
“Hey Alejandro, thank you for helping us…” Adihe looks at him shyly. “Hey no problem, thank you serpent, for your help…”
“You proved to be worthy of my help, boy…” Quetzi replies to Alejandro. Adihe looks at Alejandro:
“Do you think I will be able to be strong like you one day?”
Alejandro pats his head; “Of course, but remember, true power is being brave enough to protect someone…”
The Guys joked around and played with Alejandro as they headed towards the Zocalo, including Raul who was explaining what he did wrong with his movements.
The End…

8 201Short Stories
So these are just a few, very short, stories that I just had to write. They tend to focus on different things, as and when they come to me. They'll most likely be fantasy, and not very long. At all. Honestly, I'm putting them up here so they don't just sit on my hard drive. Kind of sad to think of imagination unshared. Edit: If you could provide some feedback on what you read, I would appreciate it. I do just post these here, and will continue (as and when) to do so.Thank you.
