《CRIMSON MOON (SHORT CHAPTERS)》Chapter 50: The Di Fiore Family part 2
Advertisement
In the dining room, Maria and her children eat some breakfast, Sister Carolina and Father Clemente introduce the sisters:
“Allow me to introduce three of my students: Fabiola, Mariana and Abril. They all are 13 years old.”
“It is a pleasure to meet you.” The three of them greet themselves to Maria.
Abril is a young girl that has brown skin, black hair and light brown eyes. She has a thin, not so developed body, and she is always hyperactive and smiling.
Mariana is a young girl that has white skin, brown hair, and also light brown eyes, unlike Abril she is very shy. She has a thin body with regular breast size.
Fabiola is a young girl that has blonde hair and dark blue eyes. She has a thin well developed body and she acts more mature despite her age.
Maria has a suspicious face, drinks her tea and says: “Only three, what is going on here. Sister Carolina please tell us what happened.”
Sister Carolina and the other nuns lower their heads and then Carolina says:
“Very well, I will tell you everything.” Carolina stands up and continues to explain.
“I see, there is no doubt that Darius is behind all of this…” Maria expresses her furious tone. She looks at Sister Carolina and smiles:
“So Uriel defeated the Chupacabras...I am very proud of him.”
Valerie looks at Sister Carolina and asks:
"So, is Uriel at school right now?"
"That's right, however due to his injuries, he is staying with a friend right now…"
"A friend? Uriel has a friend?"
"That's right, his name is Alejandro…"
"Alejandro?"
The three of them try to remember that name. Valerie scratches her head:
"Alejandro...I know I heard that name before.."
"Well he is super optimistic and has helped around the Ministry…I'm sure you'll meet him later on…"
Valerie stands up, and runs to the door; “You know what mom, I can’t wait, so I am going to see my brother now…”

“Now? Oh, alright, make sure to bring him here okay…”
“Alright...are you coming Daniel?”
Daniel lies back on the chair; “No thank you, I will wait for you here…”
“Alright then, I’m off…” Valerie goes out the door.
“Wait… Maria, are you letting her go alone? Someone can kidnap her or worse…”
Maria chuckles; “I wouldn’t worry too much Sister…”
“But…”
Daniel takes out his phone; “My mom is right...despite her looks, Valerie is strong…”
Maria drinks from her teacup; “She might be stronger than me…”
Father Clemente and Sister Carolina look surprised. Daniel continues to explain; “One time, a man tried to steal her purse and you know what happened next?”
“What happened?” The girls ask Daniel.
“An ambulance came for that man, because Valerie broke two of his limbs and 3 ribs…:
Everyone looks in shock, meanwhile, Valerie runs with her pink coat singing:
♪ I will see my brother again….I want to see him again….I can’t wait….♫
At the dining room, Maria finishes her tea. Father Clemente looks at the sisters and says:
“Hijas, why don’t you show Daniel around and take him to his room.”
“OKKKAAYYY” Mariana and Abril reply with excitement.
“I don’t feel like it…” Fabiola says, crossing her arms. Carolina steps forward; “NOW…”
“O-o-okay…”
“Mother, do I have too?” Daniel asks Maria, Maria looks at him with a fake smile. Daniel immediately understands and stands up.
“Okay, okay…”
The four of them leave the dining room, Daniel leaves a beeping device on the other side of the door.
“Hurry Daniel”
“I’m coming…”
At the dining room, Father Clemente looks at Maria and asks:
“Maria, don’t tell me that you came here to kill Darius?"
"..." Maria doesn't say a word at first, she grabs her Rosary and says:
"Father, I came here with the sole purpose of applying justice to the Borderland...I know that sooner or later that justice will come…"

"But killing a man? Maria, I don't want you to ruin your soul…"
"My soul was ruined 5 years ago, when I lost my husband and son…"
-TCH- Father Clemente remains silent, Sister Carolina looks worried as she sees Maria’s determination. Maria sighs:
“Look, I only want justice...that is all…”
Carolina puts her hand on Father Clemente’s shoulder:
“I understand, Maria, I will support you...however, if you begin to move away from your sense of justice and go to the path of revenge, I will stop you…”
Maria smiles; “It’s a deal...now tell me, how is my son doing?”
Father Clemente sighs with his eyes closed; “Very well, you win Maria...as for your son…”
He stands up and continues speaking; “Your son is a very polite and gentle person. He helps with the chores and prepares dinner for us without anyone asking. He has a pure soul however…”
Clemente puts a serious expression; “I know you also felt it before, but he has a powerful darkness within him. I thought it was just a Sombra-like situation or a demon but he was different...I can’t put it in words…”
“I already know Father....I also felt it a long time ago...Uriel has a pure soul but he was corrupted when he made a pact with El Charro…”
“Maria, how can you be certain that he is your son? I mean there are no records or photos...how can you be sure…”
Maria looks at the window, the clouds cover the sun:
“A long time ago, I tried to kill him…”
Sister Carolina and Father Clemente are in shock as they hear Maria’s confession. Maria continues to explain:
“I was weak and let myself be possessed by an evil spirit. That scar that he has on his left eye was made because he protected me from the spirit who possessed me. He protected me, even though I tried to kill him...it was at that moment that Roberto appeared in a vision and told me about our son, Uriel…”
Maria cries as she finishes explaining:
“I tried to kill my son, then the evil spirit tried to kill me, but Uriel defended me. I was on the floor, Uriel stood in front of me, protecting me from the spirit. He turned around and smiled at me even when he was injured...I decided to believe in Roberto’s words and decided to defend my son for the rest of my life…”
Sister Carolina hugs Maria; “It must’ve been hard trying to be brave right?”
Maria cries hugging Sister Carolina. Father Clemente pats her head; “Hija, you are strong and brave...that’s why I never doubted that Uriel was your son. Because he is the same as you...he had no obligation to help us deal with the Chupacabras and yet, he save Fabiola and defeated the monster”
Maria smiles; “I know...Uriel is my son after all…”
“Hhhmmmpphhh...I don’t buy it, but I will give him the benefit of the doubt…” Daniel thinks to himself as he listen to all the conversation. He walks with the nuns who are giving a tour of the Ministry.
Maria walks outside to the back yard and she draws a huge circle with little crosses around it. She makes a cut in her hand and blood begins to fall to the ground. She chants:
“En el nombre del Señor, protege este hogar de humildad”
Translates: (In the name of the lord, protect this humble home.)
A huge golden barrier begins to surround the Ministry and closes the entire area. The barrier begins to turn invisible. Maria thinks to herself:
“I hope we will be alright, I know they felt our presence. Uriel, my son, I want to see you...”

Rise of the Godslayer
When Kan lost all his power to an accident four years ago, he thought the world of divine cultivation had closed its gate on him forever. Until a mysterious visitor offers him a cure and a chance to start over. As Kan resumes his training, he discovers that the visitor’s gift isn’t a simple gesture of kindness. Dark forces are at play and monsters lurk in the shadows, threatening not only his life but also the future of the entire Continent. Meanwhile, his power has become stronger than he could ever imagine, and there seems to be more to the accident that once took everything away from him. The truth behind these puzzles and the answer to who he truly is will bring a revelation that changes the course of mankind. --------------- Note: this is a crossbreed of cultivation and high fantasy. The world is heavily Asian-inspired (though not Chinese or Taoist), the characters level up through stage progression and secret weapon unlocking, and the main conflict centers around politics and gods/demons.
