Ch1. Blinded in Rain
Miracle City reaches a record high with exploding pigeons and shoes melting to the sidewalks. Perfect day to sit inside eating an ice cream cone, but the Rivera's decided to go to the beach for a small picnic. As Manny and Frida set the blanket, chairs, and umbrella Grandpapi Rivera steps into the sand with sunscreen on his nose and old man swimming trunks.
"Rodolfo hurry up with that cooler I'm hungry."
Rodolfo walks onto the beach wearing his mask, white T-shirt, swim trunks and sandals. As he makes his way along the trail Maria steps out of the changing room in a lime green bathing suit and hat. He couldn't help but stare endlessly at his dashing ex-wife.
"Maria, you look like a delicate flower floating in the wind," he said with such a flaunting tone.
Maria was too busy looking for Manny along the beach, shading her eyes from the sun with her hand. Suddenly Rodolfo's face blocked her view with a big grin on his face.
She frowned agitated with his pestilence," Rodolfo where's Manny?"
"He's over there with Frida."
"Over here Mom! Manny shouted waving them down.
The beach was crowded and full of children building sandcastles and dumping sand on their parents. Maria strolled towards them keeping an eye on her loathing ex-husband. They all sat down in the center of the blanket to help unload the cooler, while Grandpapi Rivera sneaks his lunch and runs off to flirt with the ladies sunbathing nearby. As Frida takes a bite of her sandwich Zoey Avez shows up in a sleek black bikini. She almost chocked on her sandwich as Manny goes over and asks her to join them. Zoe's face was so tickled pink that she held his arm walking back.
"Mom, Dad, this is Zoey Aves. She goes to our school can she join us?"
"It's a pleasure to meet you Zoey and yes she is more than welcomed to join us. If only your grandfather cherishes family time as much as the rest of us do."Maria gave Rodolfo a concerning glare towards him.
"Hang on I'll go get him," Rodolfo complained.
Frida looked at her cell phone pretending she got a text and gathered her things.
"Sorry got a message from my dad to come home it must be important I'll join you all another time."
As she made her way to the board walk Manny caught up to her telling her to wait. Her body was tense as he gave her the saddest look trying to get her to come back, "Do you really have to go? It's not as fun without you Frida."
She really didn't want to leave, but every time Zoey comes around her bad things start happening.
"Sorry dude, you're going to have to enjoy the beach without me."
"Why? Does this have something to do with Zoey? Come on Frida nothing bad is going to happen." He pleaded.
She just shook her head and turned away walking to the streets. Just as Manny tries to go after her Zoey grabs his arm by surprise, "There you are Manny! I have been looking for you; your mother says it's time to eat."
"What? Oh ok I'm coming go ahead I'll be right behind you."
Zoey strolls back as Manny follows slowly behind her. They returned to the blanket where Maria was sitting all by herself, "Mom where's Papa?"
"Fetching your grandfather to join us for lunch", she replied.
"NOOOOOOO! Why can't I join lunch with the ladies?" He cried.
Rodolfo was dragging him back to the blanket by his feet, "Papi this is a family picnic, don't you want to spend quality time with us?"
"Me have to think about that one." He replied.
Then he notices Manny had a pretty black haired girl sitting next to him and decided to sit by his grandson. He scoots towards Manny giving him a wink, "So Manny who's the pretty lovely lady?"
Manny turns toward Zoey giving her a light tap on the shoulder," Zoey this is my grandpapi."
Zoey smiled shaking his hand, "Very nice to meet you."
As they were eating the skies slowly began to turn gray out of nowhere. A single drop fell from the sky and landed on Maria's arm.
She watched as the rain drop rolled off her skin into the sand then looked up, "That's strangeā¦I didn't see rain on the forecast this weekend."
The winds were picking up stirring sand so fast it felt like sharp needles as it hits their skin. The family quickly packed up their things making a dash to the car. Manny insisted that Zoey come to their house until the storm passes, however he was unaware that his best friend was caught in the storm.
The winds howled and whipped her from side to side knocking her off her feet. The roads were so hot that each drop created a foggy vapor of hot air blurring her view. Among the dense fog there was a dark shadow in a shape of a house straight ahead, she ran as fast as she could splashing her way through the puddles.
"Wham!" She smacked straight into the door and collapsed to the ground.
She blacked out laying at the door step in the pouring rain. The door slowly opened with a dark figure starring down upon the unconscious girl. After a brief pause the figure picked her up and brought her inside, still the storm continues to rage on with no remorse. The dark figure was known as Django of the Dead, a very smart and Miracle City's most top dangerous super villain.
Author's notes:
Well here you have it chapter one. I know some of you will find it a bit boring but I was expecting that for my first time doing this. Please let me know what you think of the story so far. I have been super busy working on base and try to find every moment I can to type in more into the computer. Chapter two will most definitely post next Saturday since I have finished the draft and revising a few paragraphs. Until then I hope your enjoying the Fiction.
