Vol. 4 - Chapter 11: Maria Di Fiore vs. El Muerto

"What kind of negotiation?" Maria says as she begins to sweat. Carolina stands behind her shaking as well.

"Well it is something simple really, I want you to work for me." El Muerto says as he extends his arm. Maria and Carolina are stunned to hear that and Maria replies:

"Are you crazy?"

"Yes I am, but that is not the issue now, what I want is for your cooperation" El Muerto replies as he chuckles, he continues with the explanation:

"In about 2 months a war will break out here in Borderland, the city of Gold will be revealed and I need you Maria."

"I don´t know what you are talking about" Maria replies to El Muerto, he lowers his arm and says:

"Don´t play dumb with me, Roberto knew the location of 4 cities and now I know one of the cities will be revealed here."

Maria and Carolina are speechless to learn the information. El Muerto makes one last request:

"Also I need your daughter"

"What did you say?" Maria furiously says to El Muerto in which he replies:

"One of my subordinates has a liking for her, tell you what I will let all of you live during the war if you just give me your daughter."

Maria bites her lower lip out of rage, she begins to laugh and says:

"Like hell I will give you my daughter, I don´t know about the cities and you just piss me off, cabron"

"Well that´s too bad, I thought you were a reasonable person but okay let´s do this then I will destroy your ministry with this" ElMuerto replies.

El Muerto lifts his arm pointing to the sky and opens a portal. Three specters come out of the portal and head straight to the Ministry that is only 2 km away(1.5 Miles). Maria looks at Carolina and says:

"You go on ahead and stop the specters Carolina, I will kill this bastard"

Carolina nods at Maria and runs as fast as she cans to the Ministry, the moment she passes next to el Muerto he says with a low tone:

"eliberare" (liberation)

Carolina is running breathing heavily, but the moment she remembers the word that El Muerto said to her head begins to hurt really hard. Her heart raises, and she begins to shake. She takes out her rosary but she collapses a few streets before reaching the ministry.

In the street where Maria and El Muerto are located, Maria chants:

"En el nombre del señordefiendeme" (In the name of our lord, protect me)

She extends both of her arms and calls: "Lanza divina de Santa Rita" ( Divine Lance of Santa Rita)

A white lance appears before her hands. The lance has a white staff, the blade is platinum and a cross is tied next to the blade. Maria points the lance at El Muerto and says:

"Prepare yourself"

"Splendid, that Lance never changes" El Muerto says laughing. El Muerto opens a great portal. A 7 feet golem comes out of the portal, it is grey color, it has huge muscles, the face is similar to lion with glowing yellow eyes. It has fangs and claws, the golem roars:

(RRRRAAAAAWWWW)

"Do you like it, it is one of my creations the golem: Distrugător (Destructor.)

Maria is frozen as she sees the size and shape of the monster. She begins to step back but the monster charges straight at her.

(RRRRAAAAWWWW)

The golem strikes with his right claw but Maria dodges it making a wall in the ground.

(BOOOOOMMM)

The golem keeps attacking multiple times with Maria dodging it. Maria counter attack slashing the golem´s back. However the golem moves it´s arm and punches Maria causing her to fly back and hit the post. Maria spits blood and at the moment she falls the golem kicks her causing her to fly in the sky, the golem jumps in order to punch her but Maria says:

"Vientoremolino" (Wind swirl) and wind creates around her avoiding the attack, but the golem is fast enough to make a kick at Maria who had a wind barrier causing her to slam in the ground.

(BOOOOOMMMM)

Maria begins to bleed in her head as she stands up breathing heavily. El Muerto laughs and says: "You had enough?"

"I´m just getting started." Maria replies as she raises her hand. The spear that was in mid air begins to fall at great speed and stabs the golem´s stomach making a hole at it. Maria notices something and says:

"So it´s made of clay ehh" Maria begins to chant:

"Viento divino fórmate en el nombre del señor: Lanzas de ciclón!" (Divine wind form in the name of our lord: Cyclone spear.)

Four spears are formed from the wind, they have large blades, wind begins to blow fast. The golem charges straight at Maria who points at it. The spears head towards the golem at fast speed connecting.

(CCCCRRRAAASSSSHHHHH,BBBBOOOOMMM)

Wind blows really hard causing some cars to fly. Maria breathes heavily as a dust cloud covers the area.

(RRRRAAAAWWWW)

The golem's screams as he comes out of the cloud with only one arm and tackles Maria causing her to crash in a wall.

Maria points at the golem´s hole, the golem´s hole had a small ball of wind. She makes a fist and chants:

"Viento Divino: Expandir" (Divine wind: Expand)

The ball expands to the point it crashes the golem. Maria smiles as she breathes hevily saying: "Well now it´s your turn."

She grabs her spear and runs straight to El Muerto however she hears the glem´s roar and turns around.

(CCCRRRAAASSSH)

The golem hits Maria once again slamming her to the ground causing her to bleed severly in her body. Her left arm was broken.

"AAAAAHHHHH" Maria screams of pain as El Muerto says:

"A golem can´t be killed that easily not unless the heart is till beating, it will reform again."

Maria sees the golem´s chest beating, and determines that the heart is located there. The golem grabs Maria in the neck and begins to choke her.

"AAAAAHHHHH" Maria screams as she is begin strangle, El Muerto walks towards Maria and says:

"This is your last chance join me or die, you have 5 seconds!"

Maria begins to faint as El Muerto begins to count: 5

She begins to remember her children Uriel, Daniel and Valerie standing there watching her worried. 4

She begins to see the sisters calling her name. 3

She sees Roberto who is smiling at her. 2

"Roberto I´m coming to see you" Maria says as she closes her eyes. "Don´t give up Maria" Robertp says as he is screaming in her mind.

"MMMAAAARRRRIAAA!!!!" Roberto screams her name as Maria faints.

"You must fight; protect the children, the sisters and the PORNOGRAPHY!!" Roberto says to Maria causing her to be mad and reply: "Shut up you pervert!" 1

Maria opens her eyes and a huge tornado forms causing El Muerto and the Golem to back away from her. Maria caughsmany times as she feels Roberto´s presence saying:

"ESA ES MI BELLA FLOR!" (That´s my beautiful flower)

Maria sheds tears and says: "Roberto." She begins to float as she says: "Sorry my children I was weak but not anymore!"

She summons her lance and puts one foot in front of the other making a stance she puts lance straight and chants:

"En el nombre de mi señor te libero: ¡FORMA DIVINA- RITA!" (In the name of our lord I release you: DIVINE FORM -RITA"

The cross in the spear begins to shine, suddenly Maria shines as well, her hair changes into a golden color along with her eyes that glow a golden color as well. Her dress changes from black to white with a yellow belt in her hips. Wings begin to grow in her back and a golden circular crown like an angel glows behind her.

(RRRRRAAAAWWW)

The golem jumps to attack Maria, she dodges it with great speed and cuts the right arm and punches it with great force causing the it to fall to the ground making a huge hole with the force of the wind.

(BBBBBBOOOOMMMM)

Wind blows with high speed, El Muerto release more specters to get her but she forms many small spears of wind.

"Lanzas de Viento" (Wind spears)

The spears attack all the specters making them disappear. Maria prepares to throw her spear at the golem, she gather manna at the spear causing it grow, the spear takes form of long sword with a curve in its blade.

"PURIFICACION DE RITA" (Rita´spurification)

She swings her arm and the spear charges at the golem hitting its heart causing a huge explosion with a golden light.

(BBBBBBBOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM)
