|SHORT STORY|
When Capitán Monastario kidnaps Zorro's friend, Padre Fray Felipe, the young fox must do everything he can to save him and all of Pueblo de Los Ángeles from the ruthless comandante before it's too late for Felipe and the rest of California.
***
It has been a week since Capitán Monastario's latest scheme on Pueblo de Los Ángeles, leaving Diego de la Vega and his sidekick, Bernardo, eager for a new Zorro mission. They get just that when they learn Monastario's threatening to tax the people of Los Ángeles, imprisoning them if they fail to pay them.
When Monastario targets Padre Fray Felipe and the mission, Diego springs into action to save his friend before Monastario falsely imprisons him. However, what will happen when he encounters a near-miss during the battle?
It looks like Monastario is finally upping his game, and Zorro is caught in the crossfire.
