January 29th; Downtown
At a café located near the downtown area…a young woman enters and walks towards the bar…
“Welcome…my sweet pheasant…what can I get you?” Jairo, the owner of the cafe asks the woman. The woman sits and puts her head down:
“One large Cappuccino please…”
“Had a rough day dear?”
“I did…who said being a teacher was easy…all those papers to grade…all those meetings? I can’t believe people do this job…”
Jairo gives her the cappuccino; “Fufufu…well…it is demanding but you get paid good right?”
“Money isn’t the issue…besides…you know I don’t need it…”
“Right…the first daughter of the Miyazono family…Kasumi…a spoiled rich girl…fufufu…”
“Jairo…please don’t say that…you know too well what my family thinks of me…”
“I know I know…I understand your situation very well…”
Kasumi drinks from her cup, Jairo looks at Kasumi; “How is Alejandro? Do you have any information on him?”
“I do…according to Flor…he is currently staying at the Mission of San Juan in Rio Grande City…”
Jairo looks confused; “Mission of San Juan? You mean the church is involved with the case too?”
“Apparently not…to be honest…it was a coincidence because a young nun got herself involved and Alejandro was passing by…”
“Coincidence huh…maybe it can be faith…” Jairo cleans one of his cups. Kasumi looks at her cappuccino:
“This is getting complicated…first we have to deal with the Sombras in this region…we don’t have enough agents here…then we have to see what is going on in Rio Grande City…because Alejandro got himself in trouble…”
“But Kasumi…Rio Grande City is off our jurisdiction…we can’t interfere there…”
“I know…but what worries me is what I found out…” Kasumi lifts her head and looks at Jairo, Jairo looks at a worried expression; “What did you find out?”
“One of my students…is…El Charro Negro…”

Jairo opens his eyes wider; “You mean the Charro Negro…the one who appears in mexican legends?”
“Yes…that one…”
“Incredible…do you think I can meet him some day?”
“Wait what? Kasumi looks at Jairo excited; “Well yeah mija…I really love those stories and seeing him in person…it’s amazing…”
“Wait Jairo…you’re not seeing how difficult the situation has become?He might be an evil being…he might be our enemy…”
Jairo laughs; “Kasumi…don’t be so dramatic…where is that boy now…”

“In the Mission with Alejandro…”
“See? If the church accepted him…and if he’s with Alejandro…then he is a good person don’t you think?”
Jairo pats her head, Kasumi gets embarrassed; “But still…I have to be cautious about it…”
“I know I know…do you have a picture of him?” Kasumi takes out her phone and shows Jairo a picture:
“Oh my…he sure is handsome…and that scar makes him look wild…”
“Jair remembers he is the enemy…”
“Oh come on dear…don’t you think he’s attractive? I bet he’s muscular as well…”
“Well…he is…I noticed it when I…hugged…him…” Kasumi gets red, Jairo chuckles:
“Fufufu…how bold of you…”
“It was an accident, okay? I just got excited because he looks like my Master…” Kasumi looks at Jairo with a smirk. Kasumi panics; “It’s the truth…I swear…”
“Fufufu…don’t worry dear…I also like younger men…” Jairo winks at her. Kasumi puts her phone away embarrassed and clears her throat:
“Anyway…back to the main objective…we must find out if he’s our ally or enemy…and for that…I told those two…”
(CLING)
Two people enter the cafe, Jairo lifts his head; “Oh welcome….” Jairo makes a smirk; “Oh sorry…if it isn’t the barbie girl and the wannabe cool guy…”
“HEY SHUT IT JAIRO OR I’LL KICK YOUR ASS!” One of the people is a young guy with black hair and dark blue eyes.
“Fufufu…you’re always short-tempered Carlos…” The other one is a girl with light blue hair and pinkish eyes, she has a lollipop on her mouth.
“SHUT IT CHELSEA! I’LL KICK YOUR ASS TOO!” Carlos shouts at her. Kasumi stands up; “Carlos that’s enough…”
Carlos immediately runs and kneels in front of her; “I’m so sorry Senpai…please forgive my rudeness…”
“Fufufu…what a dork..” Chelsea sits next to Kasumi and crosses her legs. Both of them have the same uniform as Alejandro’s school.
“Both of you…we have an important task to do in a couple of days…”
“Really? What an honor…” Carlos looks at Kasumi with joy. Chelsea and Jairo look at each other:
“There he goes again…that little teacher’s pet…”
Jairo chuckles; “Oh dear…I like your nails…”
“Why thank you…I did them myself…want me to make ones for you?”
“It would be an honor…”
“SHUT IT YOU TWO…SENPAI IS TALKING…” Carlos exclaims. Kasumi pats his head; “Calm down…everything is okay…”

Carlos nods with excitement, thinking; “I love her…” Kasumi looks at both of them:
“Now then…do you know Uriel Di Fiore?”
“Oh you mean that hot guy? Of course I know him…” Chelsea replies with excitement.-TCH- Carlos stands up; “I hate him…”
“What a jealous guy?” Jairo whispers to Chelsea, Chelsea answers back; “I know right? He will never get a girlfriend acting like that…” Carlos hears them:
“SHUT UP!”
Kasumi chuckles; “Anyway…you must observe his movements when he is in school…”
“With pleasure…I’ll even date him for the sake of the task…” Chelsea chuckles, Jairo gives her a thumbs up:
“You go girl…be as direct as always…”
“Please don’t do that…” Kasumi acts jealous. Chelsea smiles and looks at Jairo; “Is she?”
“Oh yes she is?” Jairo and Chelsea chuckle. Carlos sighs; “Why do we need to that?”
“Because… he is El Charro Negro…”
Both Chelsea and Carlos open their eyes wider; “R-R-Really?”
“He is…and our task is to see if he is an ally or an enemy…”
“S-S-Senpai…are we going to fight him?” Carlos looks with excitement.
“That I don’t know yet…but our mission is to stop any evil in the world…” Kasumi stands up and removes her glasses, the mood changes as Kasumi looks at them with a serious expression. Both of them get serious as well:
“I already informed Shion…Flor is keeping an eye on them in Rio Grande City…Rosa is monitoring them by satellite…and we will make a direct approach when the time is right…”
“Right…”
“Jairo…remained on stand by until I gave the order…” Kasumi looks at Jairo, Jairo nods in agreement; “Okay dear…”
“Remember this well…we are the protectors of this world…we are the roots that will keep new life flourishing…we are The World Tree; Ygdrassil…”
Yggdrasil…the mysterious organization begins to move…stay tuned…
The End…
