In the deep forest in the country of Brazil, live a mystical creature.  Many stories were told about the Pombero the Dwarf.    Some say is just a simple story.  Others believe he really assists.  

These were the stories that Justin and his girlfriend heard the second they arrived in Brazil.  Justin loves to study nature.  Rich, Rich kid, decided to take a trip to explore the rainforest of Brazil.    His parents owned a beautiful villa that was vacant free for him to use.  

The family had a butler that took care of the property.  Mr. Duog was tall, skinny and creepy looking.  He arrived at the airport carrying a large sign with Justin name.  "Really, I haven't seen this kid since he was two.  What the hell do I know what you look like?  Hopefully, this sign will work." he muttered as he stands there in the crowd.

"Honey, did we get all our bags? It seems like some are missing," asked Lyonna his girlfriend of three years.   "Sweetie, we have all the bags.  The large ones, will be delivered to the house, later on in the day." he replied   "Are you sure?  I have many important things in those bags." she replied a bit upset.  "There's nothing to worry about.  Come we need to look for my parent's butler.  He'll be driving us." said Justin     Then he held her hand heading outside of the airport towards the parking lot.   

The moment they stepped out, "Look over there.  That's him, I guess.  I don't remember what he looks like at all." said Justin     They both quickly walked towards the black limo.   Justin shook the butler's hand, "Thanks for picking us up.  I'm Justin and this is my girlfriend Lyonna.  I'm so sorry but I don't even know your name." he explained with a pitiful smile.

"Call me Mr. Duog, may I take your bags?" he replied as he reached for the bags, then placed them in the trunk of the car.   Then he opened the door for them.  They both stepped into the limo.  "He's a bit quiet, isn't he?" Lyonna whispered   "Shuu, we'll talk about that later." Justin replied.

They went up this very sharp hill.  The ride for pretty long.  So Lyoona fell asleep on Justin's shoulder.  They laid back and relax watching the view as the car drove.   "This place is so beautiful.  I can stay here forever." he thought as they passed the forest before making a turn toward his parent's vacation home.   

Suddenly something caught his attention.  "What the hell was that?" he whispered  "Mr. Duog, did you see that?" he asked with a freaked out look.   "Did I see what Sir?  I'm driving Sir.  So eventually I didn't see anything but the road in front of me.  What was it that you saw Sir?" the butler replied.

"This man is very a dickhead." Justin thought to himself, then, "Never mind, it was probably a raccoon or some other wild animal." he replied   "Wild animal sir?  Did you ever hear the story of the Pombero?" as Mr. Duog as he looking back through the view mirror.   "Yes, I heard the story.  I heard it back home at the airport.  I heard it on the airplane in the air, and I heard it at this airport when I arrive.  Really cool story.  But I really don't feel like hearing it again. Are we their jet?" he replied

"Excuse me, sir, if I said anything out of place.  The moment I turn this corner here, you're in your new home." the butler replied with a very serious look.  "Good, I'm really tired, I can use a bit of sleep.," he said as he laid his head back.  "Is that why you were an asshole a minute ago?" asked Mr. Duog.   "Yes, like you being an asshole right now." Justin replied  "Oh, well, touche." said the butler who then continue to drive without saying another word.

They arrived at a beautiful condo that was located never a waterfall in the middle of the rainforest.  The building was made out of large rocks, forming a bubble pattern.  The trees were filled with oranges and apples that you need because they fruitful smell filled the air when the wind blew.  "Honey, this place is beautiful," said Lyonna as she stepped out of the limo.  "I told you it was.  You're going to love it here." Justin replied as he helped her out of the car.     Mr. Duog step to the side where there was a cart with wheels.  He proceeds to places the luggage on the cart.   "Follow me, please," he said politely.   "Oh, wow, he was ready." said Lyonna  "I'm glad, I really don't like carrying your heavy bags," he replied with a smile as they walked behind the butler towards the front door of the condo
