“Mama?” Alex muttered, narrowing his eyes in thought.Diego shook his head in disbelief, restraining himself from speaking to avoid further incurring his father’s wrath. All three men maintained a graveyard silence as they waited for Isabella. Within minutes, there was a soft tap on the door.“Come in,” Carlos said, puffing out more smoke. He replaced the cigar in the ashtray, his gaze fixed on the door.Isabella opened the door quietly, almost tiptoeing into the room. She was dressed in a denim jean skirt paired with a pink shirt. Her dark hair was neatly arranged and tied with a matching pink ribbon.She failed to notice Diego and Alex seated to her left, as her gaze was focused on Carlos. “You going to stand there, or do u want to sit?” Carlos spoke politely.Isabella stood transfixed, clutching her bag. “We need to talk, Carlos.”“Mama,” Alex interrupted, rising from the chair.Isabella turned towards the direction of the voice. "What?" she gasped, startled by the surprise.“W

“Alejandro, wait!” Isabella cried out, her voice breaking as she sprinted after him. But he had already slammed the door and disappeared into the elevator."Stay away from me, Mama," he said coldly as the lift doors slid shut.“No!” Isabella screamed. “Come back!”"Let him go," Carlos said softly from behind her.Isabella wailed, collapsing to the floor with her hands covering her face."Give him time," Carlos murmured, gently helping her to her feet. "He'll come around."Both returned to his office, with Carlos offering her a seat."Father," Diego said, his voice trembling. "You mean Alex is my brother?"Carlos nodded, offering Isabella another handkerchief.Diego sank into the sofa, his head in his hands. He still couldn't believe all he had heard. Until now, he had been the sole heir to the El Diablo empire. Now, he had a potential contender—someone he hated with every fibre of his being.“I’ll leave you two to catch up,” Diego said flatly as he stood up.Isabella was now in Carlo

"Are you sure it was thoroughly checked?" Agent Q asked, a worried look on his face.The computer operator nodded, swinging his chair towards him. "We're certain, sir. It's not from this world.""Just got a report from the police," Agent X added. "And it's not looking good.""Ah, there you are," Agent Q smiled as he turned to the entrance."What's up, Q?" Alex spoke, out of breath. "I came as soon as I could.""There has been an attack in Cosmopolis," Q replied."Uh-huh?" Alex nodded attentively. "When?""Today. The creature broke into an antique shop, killing the owner and his wife.""How?""Their heads were severed from their bodies.""Ugh." Alex recoiled in disgust. "Did anybody get a description?""We're processing the CCTV footage," Q said."It was damaged in the attack," X cut in. "But our techies are working on it.""So, nobody knows what it looks like?" Alex turned to the operator."Eyewitnesses confirmed it possessed the body of a human and the head of a reptile, sir," the op

Serena's voice quivered with anxiety. "What's going on, Alex? Who is he?"Alex held her gently, a soft smile touching his lips. "I'll explain everything when I return from this mission.""Mission? I don't understand." Serena clung to him, her grip tightening. "It sounds dangerous.""This is what I do now, love.""Why do you sound like this? You've really changed.""Cosmopolis is in danger. I have to go," Alex said apologetically, gently prying her hands off him.He stood up, facing Agent Q. "Let's go.""Miss Davis," the agent announced, "my staff will take you home. Your parents are expecting you.""But I don't want to go without Alex," she protested."It's for your safety, ma'am," Q insisted, giving Alex a meaningful look."Oh, uh," Alex stammered instinctively. "I'll see you at home later, okay?""Promise?" Serena's voice was fragile, laden with helplessness.Alex nodded, kissed her hand, and quickly left with Q. Serena followed them to the door, watching as they stepped into the ele

Maybe he needs something,’’ replied Alex, both students walking along the campus lawn leading to the faculty.Deep down in his heart, Alex knew why Diego wanted him.

I'm ready to pay the price,'' he said in defiance.''I do hope you have enough will to fight them off,'' the student gave him a worried look.Alex was quite decisive about what he wanted to be in future, right from an early age."I want to become an archaeologist when I grow up," he said to his mother one day.Years ago, a pregnant Isabella Rodriguez embarked on a long trip to Cosmopolis City.

‘’I demand to know why final year students with only a few months left until graduation, are behaving like a bunch of teenage rascals?’’‘’ I can't believe it! This is unacceptable," Alice scowled.Dr. Alice Harper, a Professor of Archaeology and Cultural Heritage Studies, was also the Dean of the Arts and Humanities faculty.‘’Sorry Dr Harper,’’ Diego apologized, dropping the bat.‘’He, he caused it,’’ he stammered, pointing at Alex.‘’Silence young man. Wait in my office. I’ll be having a word with your father about this, today.’’‘’Now will the rest of you get into the class for my revision lectures!’’Alex picked up his spectacles. He also grabbed the amulet, rubbed it against his yellow shirt to remove the dirt, and put it back in his pocket.Diego headed in the other direction. He dreaded his father and knew he would be in trouble if this incident was ever mentioned to the El Capo.There were suppressed giggles from the other students in the hall, as Alex, Tyler and Ryan marched
Chronicles of Kulkantzi CHAPTER 3: The Rebirth
As he plummeted, memories of his life flashed before him—the moments with his mother, Serena, childhood adventures, and cherished loved ones—all converging in an instant.With a sickening thud, his body smashed against the unforgiving rocky floor with such devastating impact that he was mortally wounded. Alex was left all alone fighting for his life.There was a sharp pain in his back which began to spread. He opened his mouth to ask for help but blood gushed out, flowing into the sand.He gasped for air, his body wracked with agony as he struggled to stay conscious. "I'm hurt. I can't move. Help!". Silence.His voice waned to a feeble whisper as his life ebbed away. Just when he had lost all hope, the amulet began to emit a luminous green light, casting a glow in the darkened surroundingsThe last thing he remembered was a shadowy figure floating towards him.*****‘’Arise chosen one, Kukulkan commands’’ a voice thundered, causing the entire chamber to vibrate like in an earthquake.

‘’Alex! Alex!! Alex!!!’’Silence.‘’Where could he have gone,’’ Alice asked.‘’Who knows? Could be somewhere in these surroundings,’’ one student replied.A few hours earlier, the excursion crew were conducted around different areas of the ancient site. After the visit, everyone had converged on the bus, when Serena noticed Alex was missing.‘’I couldn’t find him at the top, or around the pyramid,’’ one of the tour guides replied.‘’My partner has also searched around this ancient site, with some workers here. No success.’’‘’Serena! you were with him when we left the bus, yeah?’’ said one of the students.‘’He told me he wanted to look around,’’ she replied.‘’Where?’’‘’I don’t know exactly. He just said he would explore the grounds. Excuse me.’’Serena hurried to the bushy area at the east side of the temple. All she could see was trees which stretched for miles. ‘’Could he have wandered into this jungle?’’ she thought.‘’Alex!She waded through the thick grass for a few minutes.‘
