Part 1- Outside of the Ministry of San Juan
Uriel, Katsumi and the three girls are walking to the ministry. Uriel has a beaten face and Abril is helping Uriel walk by letting him lean on her shoulder. Katsumi has a red face and Fabiola is looking at her with a suspicious face.
As the five people arrive on the door, Maria is waiting for them with a smile but a "red aura" surrounding her meaning that she is furious. Uriel and the three girls look at her with fear as she says:
"Hello my children, I see you left without finishing you chores,"
Uriel and the three girls bow down their head and say: "We're sorry."
Katsumi takes one step forward and says: "I'm sorry it was actually my fault."
Maria smiles with tears in her eyes and hugs Katsumi saying: "I'm so glad you are alright my little birdie"
Katsumi begins to cry and replies: "So you were Maria Vazquez which means that everyone is alright, THANK GOD!"
"Well yes everyone except for Roberto, also my name is now Maria Di Fiore." Maria replies hugging Katsumi tighter.
"I'm sorry Maria." Katsumi lets go and takes a few steps back. Maria then says: "Well enough for the sad moments. Uriel for your punishment you and Katsumi will prepare dinner for tonight"
Uriel puts a sad face saying: "Aww why me?"
Katsumi with a surprise face says: "Me too?"
"Yes, the two of you.Uriel you left without finishing your shores and Katsumi you were the responsible, now obey" Maria says with a smile but with an "evil" aura coming out of her.
Uriel and Katsumi reply nervously: "Yes maaaam" and run inside the kitchen.
"Well we better go to our room." The three girls say to Maria and begin to walk inside but they feel an "evil" aura from behind and it was Sister Carolina standing and "smiling" as she says:
"Well girls it's time for your punishment." She takes out her lance and the girls begin to runaway saying: "HELP US, SHE'S CRAZY" Maria and Carolina begin to laugh as they walk inside as well.
Part 2- Ministry of San Juan: Kitchen.
Uriel and Katsumi begin to prepare the dinner for everyone. Maria left the instruction for them to prepare the traditional Mexican plate of "Mole." The "Mole" consists of chicken bathed on a special chocolate sauce "Mole" and sometimes people from the southern regions of Mexico add spices to make it more delicious.
Uriel is wearing a black apron and is in charge of making the "mole" in a large pot for everyone to eat. Katsumi is also wearing an apron and is preparing some "red rice" which consists on adding tomato sauce to the rice making it red.
"You are very skilled in preparing rice Ms. Miyazono." Uriel says to Katsumi as she is stirring the rice.
"You think so, well your mother was the one who taught how to cook Mexican food." Katsumi says to Uriel as he stirs the sauce. He turns around and says:
"Wait, so how long have you known my mother and father?"
"Well around 15 years more or less." Katsumi replies as she begins to serve. She continues to explain: " I came here from Japan as an order from my father when I was 11 years old. Your father was a full fledge member of Yydrasill at that time. He helped me learn the culture and language of this area. Your mother also welcomed me to your house, you were very little when we first met and so cute." Katsumi smiles at Uriel causing him to blush.
Uriel turns around to serve the plates and says: "So what is this Yydrassill organization?"
"Well as Allan said before, we protect people from monsters and evil entities such as the one you encounter. I am a "Root" from the organization making me a leader if you put it in simple words." Katsumi replies as she begins to serve the rice. Uriel begins to pass the plates with the "Mole" on it and asks:
"So what are these divisions you said before, how many are there?"
"Well the first division are the leafs, then the branches, then the trunks which is divided into the upper level and the lower level. We have the Roots and the "Elite Roots" which are the ones in charge of regions such as Allan Carter who is in charge of the American region. Finally we have the "Seeds" who are the most powerful and intelligent of the whole organization my father is one of them." Katsumi finishes the explanations as well as serving the plates.
In total they made 30 plates for all the staff members. Uriel sees Katsumi and asks:
"Why did your father sent you to this region?"
"Well its complicated, you see I…" Katsumi was answering the question when she suddenly stops as she has "flashes" of her past consisting of images of blood and fire.
Katsumi begins to shake and Uriel begins to say: "I'm sorry that was too personal, please forgive me."
Katsumi comes to her senses and smiles at Uriel saying: "Don't worry the past is the past right?" Uriel smiles feeling relieved and answers: "Yes that's correct"
As the two smile at each other, Fabiola stands between them with a furious face clearing her throat and says:
"Your mother asked if you were ready, and as I can see you are."
Uriel smiles at her and says: " Yes we're ready."
"Good I'll start serving the plates." Fabiola says as she makes smile with a "red aura" coming out of her. Katsumi only smiles at her as Fabiola thought to herself: "Why do you smile at me you witch"
The two sisters who were outside of the kitchen were whispering: "I think Fabiola is jealous, she must have fallen for Uriel, and this is fun."
Part 3- Ministry of San Juan: Dining Room.
Everyone finishes eating. Valerie and Daniel decided to leave the dining room.
"Thank you for the food." Both of them say to Uriel and Katsumi. Katsumi smiles at them causing Valerie to whisper at Uriel's ear:
"She's really cute; I did not know you like them older ,you DOG"
Uriel begins to blush saying: "Shut up just go and do your homework"
Valerie and Daniel leave laughing at Uriel. The three sisters also stand up and say:
"Thank you for the food"
Fabiola glares at Katsumi as she smiles at her. The two sisters begin to chuckle at Fabiola thinking: "She's jealous"
Sister Carolina, Maria, Katsumi and Uriel are the only ones left in the dining room. Katsumi stands up and says:
"Well now that we are going to work together, I will inform you about the situation we are in. The monster we encounter the other night is the legendary "Chupacabras."
The name surprises Uriel, Maria and Carolina. Uriel stands up and asks: "You mean the goat sucker right?"
Katsumi continues with the explanation: "The Chupacabras is a mythical creature that roams around the central and southern part of the American continent. It was created by one of the 5 great witches: Isabella."
Maria and Carolina make a surprised face as they learned about the witch's name:
"Isabella the Red Witch?"
"Yes that Isabella however, we don't know much about her, only that she lives in the center of Mexico."
Uriel begins to remember that name from Juan de la Trinidad who mentioned her many times before. He sits down looking at Katsumi and says:
"Please continue with your explanation" Katsumi nods and replies:
"That monster is controlled by "El Muerto", the Chupacabras is a type of monster that only attacks animals to feed itself; however when "El Muerto" appeared 6 months ago, the monster began to attack humans."
"So we need to stop this monster, however when would it strike?" Uriel asks Katsumi and she replies:
"Well the attacks have been happening more constant. At first it was one or two per week. Now the numbers went up to 5-6 people this week."
"So the monster is attacking every night?" Carolina says with a worried face.
"Yes but the problem is that I don't know at which location." Katsumi replies making the others feel worried. Uriel closes his eyes to think. He opens them again and says:
"Okay, starting on Monday you and I will investigate who the Muerto is."
Katsumi nods and says: " I think it has to do with Darius."
Maria stands up and says with an angry face: "So, that bastard is making a move huh, well then Uriel you need to investigate Aleister."
Uriel frowns at her and says: "Okay, I will" Katsumi looks at Uriel and says: "I will investigate Olivia to see if she has something to do with this."
The clock says that it is 8pm, Katsumi prepares to leave in a orange motorcycle. She puts her helmet on and says to Uriel: "Well then, I will see you on Monday"
"Sure thing, please take care." Uriel replies with a smile making her blush. Katsumi leaves in her motorcycle.
Maria says to Uriel: "So you like them older then you huh, you DOG." Uriel blushes and says: "Shut up mom, you sound just like Valerie." Sister Carolina laughs at Uriel causing him to get an even more blushed than before. He remembers something he forgets and says:
"Damn I forgot to ask about the esper suit, I'm such an idiot."
Maria lowers her head thinking about Roberto saying: "Well I guess Katsumi should explain to you better than me. You know your father used to have one as well."
Uriel holds Maria's shoulder and says: "He's still alive in our hearts Mama be strong." Maria and Carolina smile and go inside the Ministry.
Uriel only thinks about the esper suit and goes inside the building.
