CHAPTER ONE: WORK AS USUAL

Luis had been working 3 days but had only been doing meager work assigned by the miners. Most of the work was not even research. Most of it consisted of simple tasks such as fetching water for workers and finding better mining areas. Luis could not find or contact Saddler.

"Well it might not be research work, but at least it's easy." Luis spoke aloud as he walked into his miniature office at the end of the day. "It's already the end of day three." He closed the door behind him, reached up and yanked the chain near the ceiling light bulb. The small bulb flickered, then sprang to life. Luis sighed and sat in the old wooden chair in the corner. There was a deafening knocking at the door.

"Alright, alright, hold on amigo!" Luis yelled as he got up to answer it. The knocking got more intense. Luis twisted the doorknob and pulled the door open. He stepped back as he gazed at the figure outside.

It was a towering man about 7 feet tall, wearing a giant trench coat. He had huge, powerful limbs and massive hands. His face had a grim expression as he stared down at Luis. He had a short black beard. His left eye was red and looked false. His right eye was cold and heartless. It gave Luis a strong feeling of evil.

"You must be Luis Sera. I am Bitores Mendez, the head chief of the nearby village." The man bellowed in a deep voice and a strong Spanish accent.

"! Encantado Senior! Si, me llamo Luis Sera." Luis exclaimed, attempting to cover up the fear he felt. He put his hand out, prompting a handshake.

"I prefer English over Spanish. And I KNOW you speak English." Bitores declared. He did not move and continued to stare down at Luis. Luis pulled his hand back and frowned.

"OK then, Bitores. Why are you here?" Luis questioned, recovering over his initial fear.

"Lord Saddler is away monitoring a nearby mining site and instructed me to bring you these papers." Bitores explained as he reached into the left side of his trench coat and pulled out a file full of papers. He held it out to Luis. "Saddler wants you to analyze this organism that has been discovered in the mining area. Perform a full analysis of the creature. When you are finished, contact Saddler and give him your report. Or he will contact YOU." Luis grabbed the file from Bitores and flipped through the many papers.

"Uh...thanks then, Senior Mendez. I will start right away." Luis assured as he closed the file.

"Make sure you do." Mendez growled as he walked off, his feet leaving large prints in the soil.

Luis closed the door. "What a freak." He said to himself and tossed the file on the desk in the corner. "All these people seem to have some sort of evil aura...Ah, they're all just nutjobs. Muy loco." Luis pulled the chair up to the desk and sat down, ready to examine the organism.
