Chapter 4 (Curse)
In the office, the small skeleton man turned around to look at family, while reading the clipboard and said "Yelp your curse". Then everyone in one was in shock especially the kids. "Say what?". said Miguel, "Huh?". said Violet, "That's not right". said Penny, "For real?". said Wilbur, and finally "Come again now?". said Hiro.
"What do you mean we're curse?!". askes Imelda. Then the guy coughed his voice up and said "Well on the Day of the Dead it's about giving back to the dead, but instead the kids took back from the dead. In which that's why they are in the spirit realm". Then Miguel said "We weren't stealing the guitar. It belonged to our great, great grandfather, he would want me to have it".
"We do not speak of that music-loving sell out. He left this family". Imelda said making it personal. Then Penny asks " Um, why not?. I mean he is your husband and all". "Yes he is my husband Penny but he chose music over family. And I can't understand why does this have to do with, from not crossing over the bridge?".
That's was when Miguel remembered the incident with Dante, and pulled out the photo from his jacket pocket and show it. "Oh, boy trouble in paradise". said Hiro in which he was correct. "You kids took my photo off the ofrenda?!". Imelda said upset. "Well, technically it was Miguel's fault. We weren't there when it happened". said Wilbur.
"It was an accident momma Imelda. Really". said Violet trying to keep her great, great grandmother to calm down. Luckily she did while taking deep breaths and said "How can we send them back home?". Then the man said "Since this is a family issue you can just simply send them back, by giving them your blessings. Now, there should be a flower peddle around here somewhere".
After finding one on Tia's dress he handed the peddle to Imelda and gave instructions. "Now, just look at the living and say their names". "Alright then, Miguel, Wilbur, Hiro, Penny, and Violet". said Imelda as the peddle began to glow.
"Good job. Now just say I give you my blessings".said the man. "I give you my blessings to go home, put my photo back on the ofrenda and never to play music again Miguel". This shocked all five of them after hearing that last part of the blessing.
"Hey you can't do that". said Miguel, who was upset. "Well, technically she can add whatever she wants in her blessings. So now you five take the peddle". Hiro then asked a very good question, "One question. What happens if we don't go back home". "If you kids don't leave when the sunrise is up, you will be looking just like us. And one question, how did this dog get in here? I'm allergic". as he started sneezing.
Violet then said "Its just Dante and he doesn't even have any fur. I think his one of the spirit guides". "He doesn't look like one of the spirit guides around here". said aunt Tia, then one of the twins made a joke about how Dante look.
Then Miguel got an idea and he needed to discuss it with the others alone, so he pretended to take the blessing. "Alright momma Imelda, you win we go and I never play music again. Come on guys lets grab the peddle". As they grabbed the peddle they were sent back yo the living world.
