At this moment, the rest of the gang hurry up to them. "Say, is somethin' wrong, guys?" Ace inquires. "We heard da crooks runnin' around back dere."
"Yes, but they seem to have gotten away." Mojo replies with more than a bit of concern to his voice.
Just then, Arturo notices a rolled up piece of paper lying on the ground. "Eh?" He traipses over, picks it up, and unrolls it. "Oh my!" His friends hurry up to him. "Is something wrong, Arturo?" Rebecca inquires.
"I found a map to a silver mine; the banditos must have dropped it." Arturo replies. Everyone exchanges concerned looks. "They must have come by here." Rebecca notes. Arturo feels a large shudder run down his spine. "Hopefully not too close by."
"Well, there's only one thing to do," notes a determined Mojo. "We'll have to keep an eye out for anyone suspicious, or any clues we might find."
"Good idea." everyone obliges.
Arturo, still feeling very scared, inquires, "But, what es we going to do if they see us?" Spotting a costume shop nearby, Mojo's mind races. He snaps his fingers and says, "Simple, we'll disguise ourselves. Come on." Mojo dragged them towards a costume shop and quickly grabbed some clothes, then he hands Rebecca a light pink dress that has a red rose pattern at the bottom of the skirt and a ruffled off-the shoulder neckline with short puffy sleeves hanging loose. Mojo said, "You're a good dancer, so you'd be good at dancing to the Spanish rhythm."
Rebecca says, "Okay." She spots some black character shoes. Rebecca got towards the changing room to get out of her clothes. She fastened the shoes on her feet, then brushed her hair into a low bun and bobby-pinned it in place. She adds more finishing touches by putting on mascara on her lashes, blush to her cheeks, and red lipstick.
Rebecca walks out and pays for her costume as she's wearing it, then buys a pair of little castanets. She looked to see Mojo garbed in a black shirt, black gloves, a black cape, black pants, and a pair of black boots. He wore a black bandana over his brain helmet, a black leather mask over his eyes with little holes for him to see, and a black hat over the bandana. Mojo looked around to see a guitar, tuned it as he plucks the strings for scales, and takes it.
Mojo said after paying for his costume and walking out of the shop with Rebecca, "Perfect look for you. The earrings are a good touch, but there seems to be something missing." Rebecca said, "What's that?" Spotting some red roses growing on a vine from a pillar, Mojo plucks a rose off and carefully picks the thorns off. Setting the rose in Rebecca's hair, he smiled, "Just a little rose for my Spanish rose."Rebecca smiles and blushes. "Oh, thank you, Sweetheart."
Moments later, Rebecca and Mojo observe the Gang Green Gang leaving the shop. Each of them are wearing white burlap shirts, brown pants, black boots, and sombreros. Ace and Snake are each wearing fake mustaches. "Hey, niccce costumessss, guyssss!" Snake says.
"We thought you guys might be needin' some help, so we got ourselves some disguises, too." Ace notes.
"Jusssst call usssss the Gang Verde." Snake says half jokingly.
"Thank you very much for helping us," Rebecca says. "This is very kind."
"We will certainly have those crooks caught, apprehended, and put a halt to in no time." Mojo notes.
"Mmn," Arturo muses with more than a bit of unsureness to his voice. "I certainly hope so."
Rebecca said, "Can I see the map, Arturo?"
Arturo hands her the map, "Si, senorita."
Rebecca says, "We could be able to get their faster by horseback or on donkeys." Mojo spots a stable and goes to see if a horse is available, then he comes across a beautiful black mare. Looking at the name on the stable door, Mojo said, "Esmeralda." The mare shook her flowing black mane and gave a whinny, then Mojo takes Esmeralda out of the stables and mounts her.
Mojo held the reins and said to Rebecca, "Here, ride with me. You'll be riding with me on the horse as I ride and you hold onto my waist." Spotting a mounting block, Rebecca steps up and gets behind Mojo side-saddle as she holds onto his waist.
Ace spots a donkey hitched to a wagon and says, "Okay, we'll take the burro and wagon for the five of us."
"Good idea." the rest of the gang oblige. The five of them quickly embark the wagon and set off down the trail, following Rebecca and Mojo.
