Prologue part 2

The pale moon illuminated Dorado`s night sky. In every direction clusters of stars are visible to the naked eye. Down below on a white blanket Angela rest on her knees. Her hands are clenched together in a meditation position. with hopeful eyes, she stares at the stars above. As she re-frames from her posture see looks over the village.

"I should help him he can't do this alone but he's done this countless of time" she pondered. The blonde woman looks down to her bag containing her gun. "you've used it before but one time in self-defense." she retrieved the bag from the floor and opened it up.

Angelia gazes at her handgun, she felt a mixture of awe and fear. "I swore an oath to to do no harm I also swore to save a life regardless of the circumstance." she closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Now fully suited in his armor Reinhardt stands before the mayor's office. From their windows, the villagers gaze in wonder at the colossal knight in shining armor.

"LOS MUERTOS ,STEP FORTH AND FACE ME IN COMBAT FOR I STAND AS CHAMPION OF THE PEOPLE !"

Nothing but silence can be heard as his request goes unanswered. To his knowledge, she still resides within the building.

"HONORLESS SUM YOU DARE IGNORE MY CHALLENGE OF HONORABLE COMBAT!"

The sound of galloping horses echoes from down the towards him are five Los Muertos members on horseback. Once They reached the proper range the bandits opened fire at the metal giant. Before any shot made there, mark Reinhardt deployed his mighty shield, blocking every shot.

When Reinhardt got a good look at his enemy his imagination started to take off just regular humans attacking him he sees them as skeletal horses became undead mounts with hell-fire for hair.

"HAMMER-DOWN!" he roared

He then leaped into the air bring down his hammer upon the ground. This created a powerful cone of force that knocked them all down. While on the floor they try to recover from the assault but Reinhardt won't let that happen. In one wide arc, the armored knight swung his hammer, nailing all five men in one shot.

Just then he felt the impact of bullets hitting his one-eyed giant turned to face the men are stationed on the roof with high impact rifles. In retaliation, he unleashes a fire strike from his hammer. The flaming projectile engulfed the men in flames, causing them to yell in agony. Before dying one of them falls off the roof and lands face first.

More Los Muertos on horses showed up to the battle. lit sticks of dynamite are in their possession. Aware of the potential danger Reinhardt wasted no time as he charges into them .The thrust on his back he is propelled forward at great speed. Reinhardt grabs hold of the closest rider while Knocking away all other enemies away from. the stick of dynamite he once fell out of his grasp. both he and his horse panic frantically before colliding with a stone wall.

The knight released his grip off his crushed foes. Their bodies are mangled almost beyond recognition. Reinhardt started painting uncontrollably as he uses his hammer to help him balance.

The sound of footsteps approaching jolted him into a defensive stance. When looks he sees the blonde doctor standing a few feet away.

"Ah sister you came to witness my battle, after all," he said with bombastic laughter.

"enough with the bravado already, we both know you can't keep this up for long"

"Nonsense I possess the power of a lion"Reinhardt started to posing and flexing in front of her. Then all of a sudden his back cracking sound."an old lion but still got it".

Angelia shakes her head in disbelief. "This isn't a medieval fantasy world where good just triumphs over evil Reinhardt,all actions have consequences." she then looked away from him like a mother disappoint at her child. "The cycle of violence will only continue."

Reinhardt reaches out his arm to comfort the blonde before he could touch her bullets zoom past them in hesitating the knight embraced her,as bullets puncture his each bullet that lands Reinhardt grunts in pain.

While being shielded from harm her body begins to tremble as her breathing intensifies."I'm sorry...I'm sorry I just don't know anymore"she said.

"Angelia... it okay.I get scared too" as he comforts her Doctor Ziegler looks up at her gigantic protector. "Did he just admit that he get scared like everyone else?" she thought.

"Senorita Ziegler, come quickly", to their left a house door is held wide open. Pablo peaks his head out once more, as he continues to call Angelia over."hurry before it's too late" Pablo muttered.

The blonde looks back at her friend as he does the same. Dispute the helmet covering his face she could still picture his gaze. In that moment both Reinhardt and Angela let go of each other in unison. She made a run for the door while Reinhardt activated his shield to block the incoming fire.

Once she made it inside Pablo quickly slammed the door shut. He took a deep breath in relief that she made it unharmed. The man turned his attention towards her as she gazes at the window.

"are you alright" Pablo ask. Ms. Ziegler remains quiet as she monitors the battle.

The iron giant resumed his battle against Los Muertos. With a mighty swing of his hammer, Reinhardt strikes a group of them. They went flying as if they were hit with the force of a locomotive.

Suddenly Sombra on her steed emerges on battlefield But she isn't alone. Accompanying her is Julio her right-hand man, along with Reinhardt's daughter Bridgett. Unfortunately, she's tied to a leash like a dog.

Seeing his pride and joy in the clutches of the enemy filled the brave warrior with pure rage. Without a second thought, he charges at them like a bat out of hell. Each step of his armored boots can be heard by the whole town as he stampedes toward Julio and Sombra.

"YOU DARE LAY A HAND ON MY BRIDGETT FOR THAT YOU-!"

All of a sudden he falls down to one armored giant glance at his knee to see a bullet he looks ahead to see Julio holding a high powered rifle pointed directly at he could he move another shot was fired this time hitting his other knee.

Reinhardt! Angelia shouted while staring out the window hole.

"Papa no!" Bridgett yelled. while still bound by rope she attempts to escape but Sombra grabs the lasso."Let go of me!" The little girl tries to wiggle out her restraints but is unsuccessful.

"UNHAND HER YOU FIEND!" he roared. Using his hammer for support the mighty knight was back on his slowly continued to make his way towards them. "I AM SIR WILHELM REINHARDT DESCENDANT OF BALDERICH VON ADLER, HEIR TO CASTLE EICHENWALDE AS LONG AS I DRAW BREATH I WILL NEVER SURRENDER TO THE LIKE OFF YOU!"

"Don Quixote everyone" Sombra jest as she laughs and clap at him.

Just as soon as she stopped clapping The remaining Los Muertos swarmed Reinhardt-like a pack of wolves attacking a unsheathe their machetes and started stabbing into the armor trying to breach it. After much time and effort, they eventually dragged Reinhardt out of the Covered in bruises they held him down beating him with their guns.

"If any of you kill him ill kill you" she commanded. Julio and Sombra made their way to the to Reinhardt while dragging Bridgett along. Once she dismounted off her horse they eased off him giving him some space. Then Sombra released the lasso holding Bridgett. Now free the brunette rushed to her father's aid.

"Get away you.. you savages," said Bridgett as she hugs the injured Reinhardt.

The bandits all giggled when she labeled them savages. A handful of them began mumbling in Spanish to one another. They began to look at her with shady intentions in mind.

" should've learned your lesson from earlier old man," a random thug said.

"Since he killed and maimed our brother he has to pay!" anyone shouted

"WELL, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR HOLD ME RESPONSIBLE!" as he stares down all of them with his single eye.

"Stop it, dad, they'll kill you" Bridgett trying her best to protect him.

"Hush my little girl it's over"

"Don't treat me like a child not now this is serious" she snaps back.

"Daughters never grow up remain six years old with tiny pigtails and with freckles forever."

"Father"

"COME ON THEN DO YOUR-"

Sombra shot him at point blank range. Reinhardt's lifeless body laid on the lays her head on his body crying her eyes out.

Julio eyes circles the area, seeing folks watching from their windows and doors speechless. He glances over to his boss. Her expression changed from one of satisfaction to disgust. Once they both made eye contact Julio nod his head towards the sobbing Bridgett. In response Sombra with a head nod of approval.

He walked behind her and grabbed the brunette by the arm. Dragging her with him kicking and screaming "No Get off of me, help!"

Then out of nowhere the young farmer Carlos,armed with a pitchfork comes to her aid. He Screams at the top of his lungs as he hurls himself at Julio. " thieves murderers animals!"

Los Muertos calmly watches him approach."pow" Julio fires a round from his sidearm which hits Carlos in the stomach. He stumbles slightly, recovers and goes on. "Pow" this time he goes down to the ground as he lies still motionless.

Suddenly a middle age woman runs across the street to Carlos. She sinks to her knees in anguish.

"Carlos..Carlos..Carlos!" she cries.

"That was stupid, oh well bury him well" Julio stated with a bright smile. He then pushed Bridgett towards three bandits who immediately subdued her. She was bound and gagged once more.

" ladies and gentlemen from here on out your rent has doubled, if the next shipment is light believe me not even the grave will keep you safe. Adios" said Sombra as she spurs her mount. The horse jogs across the plaza and into the dark valley, her men follow suit.

Once Los Muertos are gone the villagers gather in a circular mass around Reinhardt and Carlos body. Everyone was quiet with their heads down in despair. As they stood their Angelia views them from a distance. She then looked up into the night sky with a determination in her eyes and her handgun in the other.
