A Love In Dark Times

-1 want to apologise for my hasty decision, I let myself be carried away by pride, I was unaware of the enemy's intentions, we are truly in dark times and I do not expect despair,” ended the great leader's speech while Francisco won followers to his cause, since he was the hero of the day, and in a corner Luis and Luisa were talking:

“This is very incredible, Luis, I feel like I'm living in a fairy tale or a dream.

“Luisa, it has been a strange time, the only thing that gave me the strength not to fall into madness was the memory of your sweet voice.

You talk as if you were in love with me.

-Maybe I am, I don't know

-If you don't know, then who does?

I've never been in love before, the truth is I've never even had a girlfriend.

-1 don't believe you, Luisito, not even if you were the ugliest or the meanest,

-Anyway, that doesn't matter, I saw what happened with Guio.

That was a misunderstanding, a product of the critical occasion.

“Well, you should tell him, he’s telling everyone that you're his girlfriend.

“I thought I heard that you can't have relationships, especially not romantic ones.

-If it's part of the regulations, I also heard that he's going to resign because of you.

For me? It would be a nice touch, to give up this life of adventure for a life of misfortune with me.

“No, you can live happily ever after, just like in fairy tales.

-and if I become the witch in the story and he my ogre, as I often saw my parents fight.

“Your mother and Don Car look good, they don't seem to live like cats and dogs.

Appearances can be deceiving, they look very close and happy, and they are to a certain extent, but they are like matche that are close to the candle and with nothing they ignite, besides the fact that they consume more liquor than rice make: things worse, so I found out that Carl is not really my father but a certain Jota.

-it must have been hard to find that out.

“Yeah, sure, I felt the ground come out of my head, and there have been other complicated tragedies.

I've heard something from the gossips in the neighbourhood.

-1 miss my family a lot, I hope I can go and see them, hey, changing the subject, you and me, what?

- don't know, Id like to get to know each other better.

-Luis, I don’t know how you can say that to me, after what we've been through, we almost died, we would have died withc even giving each other a kiss.

“What wouldn't happen to you with Guio, would it?

“Wake up, Luis, I'm just telling you to seize the moment, let's live in the now, let's make up for lost time.

-1 don't know what to tell you, Luisa.

-Don't say anything, let's just kiss.

-1'd like to, I'm dying to kiss that little mouth with those full lips, but I can't betray my vows and even less to a comrade in arms, I'd like you to square the situation with him and after we defeat evil, I can resign and we'll get married and have lof of children.

You are very naive Luis, you want me to leave a man for a maybe, wake up the great master, I mention that this fight take eons, do you think I will wait so long, and the truth is I haven't thought about getting married yet, I want to live life, stud do something, not stay locked up to raise a child or leave them locked up while 1 work, although, I definitely want to be someone in life, I want to be a doctor.

-A doctor who breaks hearts, starting with my own.

Maybe it would be better to be with Guio, although he's a bit absent-minded, he’s a good boy.

I heard that he has a strange luck.

50, shall we be friends? Luis.

“No, I can't love and desire a friend like that.

He felt a lot of pressure in his stomach due to the fear of being rejected, but he was refreshed to feel her soft lips next to his, and her wet tongue extinguished the anguish replacing it with joy and other emotions.

In the distance they were watched by Elijah, who detested outsiders, yet believed himself to be Guio's best friend since t time he saved him from falling into a hole where he fell in first.

Meanwhile, the grandmaster was discussing the next move with his generals:

“We must seek an advantage against our enemies, we must not allow them to wipe out humanity let alone existence, Luc wishes to free the great chaos, we must find a way to go to Las Capas to destroy that trident and bring back sacred metal build powerful weapons that will give us an advantage.

-sir, they have found the sword Darmela,” interjected Marcos, “it is said that this sword even destroys any spirit or soul. -And why didn't you bring it,” asked the grandmaster.

-sir, I need a tracker to give me the whereabouts of a man who hides himself very well, for he has trouble with men, because he is a criminal.

-Marco, take Yaqui and her daughter, they are the best, that weapon can be useful to us, I also remember that one of our fallen comrades, Yaya, left a rock of sacred metal hidden in the earth, I think that mission was assigned to Guio, it's time t give priority to it, they should assign it to someone better like you Michel.

Yes, Mr. Grand Master, I accept your mission, I just have a doubt, just one, please excuse my imprudence.

“What would it be, master Michel?

-How do we get to this place of Las Capas, as I have heard, it is a place where no one has ever been, in fact, they say itis imaginary place.

-And that it is not, something had to be imagined first to become real and that place exists, I was there, the difference wa that The Creator took me there, what happens is that you can't get there with a portal, we have to go through entropy, purgatory and we have to go to the depths of hell and that is the easiest part.

“Why don't we look for another solution,” asked Francisco, shaking his head from one side to the other to see everyone's reaction.

The only one would be to find the chosen one or for the Father to return.

-Great master," replied Francisco again, “it is possible that the Father has not been gone for a long time, perhaps he is de: as many say.

Those are blasphemies,” replied the enraged master, “The Father exists, I feel his presence every time I breathe, he simp! decided to leave with his representation for us, it is as if we needed to communicate with some bees and we used a pupy of a bee so that the hive would not be frightened.

Great master, and what exactly is this place, Las Capas,” asked Luis.

-It's like a paradise, only there He wanted to create something like a museum, there are the works of art of all civilization then one of the chosen ones sent there the magic metal so that men would not forge more magic weapons, I can see his mistake, since men always devise ways to exterminate their fellow men.

-Great Master! Excuse me,” interrupted Luisa, “I heard about the magic stone, there is a legend in my village that says that underneath it there is a great bar of gold, that if they take it out it would collapse, when they excavated the foundations. my parents’ house, they found a rock although it looked normal, The workers tried to chop it or break it, they did everything and uselessly fought against it, which got its undefeated, and they decided that it was better to make it part o the foundations, but master I touched it and I felt a strange energy, I don’t know if I'm wrong, sorry for interrupting them with my nonsense.

-No Luisa, it could be possible, perhaps for that reason you have been attacked by those creatures, so the stone could ha impregnated you with some of their power, we have investigated why they are looking for you, without getting an answer, that must be it, not as it is whispered that you are the chosen one of this time, well, Michel, Francisco, Luisa and Guio go and check the stone, Marco, Luis, Angie and Yaqui go and look for the sword Darmela, the rest of us will look for the chos; one.
