It was impossible, Tulio believed. Just plain impossible, but they did meet a psychotic man that had the ability to command a giant stone Jaguar. The thought of meeting him and the stony cat again nearly sent shivers up his spine. So to bring you up to speed on what was happening right now.
Tulio, Miguel and Chel ,on the back of Altivo, had just seal of the gate way of El Dorado, using the boat that was built to transport gold from El Dorado, losing the boat, the city and the mountain of gold (he won't admit it to anyone else besides the people who saw him, but he had cried when he lost it) to save the people of El Dorado from Cortes and his men. While in El Dorado, they were mistaken for gods, though with how much power they had, they possibly could be gods, which allowed them to get all the gold and on the bad side of one set-in-his ways High Priest, Tzekel-Kan. Boy, was he mad! Probably on every situation, he wanted to offer a sacrifice. It was just crazy. But back on the situation at hand, since probably most of you have seen the movie.
"What do you think it is?" Chel asked, reaching out to touch it, but Tulio had grabbed her wrist gentle, not enough to hurt but enough to make her stop.
"Chel, I don't think that's a good idea. Remember what happened when Tzekel-Kan played with this type of stuff? He turned into this Stony Jaguar! I don't think we want the same result." Tulio said getting on Altivo, the horse looking at him before nodding, shaking his little armadillo friend on his head, causing him to get dizzy and fall to the ground. It would have been hurtful, had Chel not catch him before he hit the ground, petting the creature softly on his head. Once he was out of the dizziness, Chel put him back on the ground before looking at the boys.
"Tulio, you worry to much!" Miguel said, also reaching out to touch the mysterious blue portal in front of him, but like with Chel, Tulio grabbed his wrist, just a little bit more harshly.
"No, I don't, you can never worry to much!" Tulio said as he turned Altivo around, making him get in the opposite direction. But then a golden butterfly appeared in front of Bibo, before going into the portal. Not one to give up the chase for food, Bibo rushed into the portal, not heeding Tulio's advice. Seeing this caused fear inside of Altivo, for the two became great friends over their journey. Without thinking, Altivo also rushed into the portal, Tulio on his back, trying desperately to get him to stop but to no avail. In a matter of seconds Tulio and Altivo were gone.
"TULIO!" Chel and Miguel screamed, rushing over to the portal where the trio disappeared to. They stopped short, just inches away from the entrance. They both looked at each other, hesitating.
"Do you think we should go in?" Chel asked Miguel, looking back at the portal that swallowed their friend. Miguel shrugged. Just the Tulio's head popped out, scaring the two. Chel and Miguel jumped back at the sight of their friend's head.
"Come on! You gotta see this!" And with that, Tulio's head disappeared back into the portal. Miguel and Chel looked back at each other, before walking into the portal. After they walked in, the portal closed, never to open again until needed.
