The Valley of the Portal 

Chapter VI 

Plans, Truces and Disagreements

Clara didn't sleep that night. She couldn't take a rest her turbulent mind and thought over and over about all things she had seen. There were lots of questions without answers. 

The Rico's power was unique. A creature like him could destroy half of all Manaus in few minutes. So...why have he never tried before? 

Of course she didn't wish he did, but it would be natural to him took advantage of his very special skills to impose on his mean presence to dominate everything.  

He was just twenty-one and till now nobody had heard about him. Haram, had been the most powerful so far and to be honest, he wasn't even the half of Rico. 

Clara was worried about one particular point. She had been the only one who had responsibility in Haram's death. She took his onyx off and because this he dematerialized definitely. All his offspring had finished together him. 

It was international news inside the both of worlds and so far Rico, even talking to her twice, never asked her something about it. Surely he was aware of this, but for some reason, It didn't seem to be important to him.

At home, Rico was so incredible furious with event in that night. He didn't want that Clara and the other animist have seen the disagreement among he and the others myths. 

Morons, idiots and stupid ones, the Curupira sworn aloud to his own ears. All that damn animists knew that there were conflicts inside the Chimeras, and the worst, they knew that all these conflicts involved him. That wasn't good for his plans.  

He asked to all myths to avoid the event this year. Everyone knew that Rico was leading a riot against Valley and his plan to kill the animist girl was on the way. Rather than join forces with him, on the contrary, they challenged him, included his sister. But they knew him very well to know how bad were their situation at the moment.  

Luara, the curupira-sister was being burnt inside a circle of fire right now. It just a painful punishment could teach her how to behave well. She was put in front of all his offspring to let everybody knows what happens when you disobey your master. The two myths leftover had their chimeras completely destroyed by Ricos's allies. That was the Curupira's way to solve his problems.  

Days Later... 

Rico and Clara met each other just a lot of days later and they were closer the Colonial House. He seemed to know she was over there because he was leaning against the trunk just waiting for. His humor apparently was so good. 

"You are working a lot girl."

He really had a warmth and welcoming voice, or perhaps it was the low and weighted tone that he always used what gave her this sensation. She shrugged.  

"I have nothing to do, so it makes me happy to spend my time helping my people." 

"Don't you have too much fun, do you?" 

"I do. We have fun at Valley."  

"Really? What do you do over there?" 

"Basically the same things of one hundred percent human usually do. Parties, meetings, dates..."

"Dates huh? That's sounds good. After all it's everything the same, isn't it? Dancing, music and a lot of drunken people looking for company in the end."

"Drunken? Oh no, definitely no. - She denied - We've never ingested alcohol. Our organism doesn't accept it." 

Rico stayed in alert. That's good information and he liked of way this conversation was running.
