Carlos: points to the catrina statue Do you r-remember this? The Day of the Dead, almost d-dying?
Yeah bro! I didn't know he was you
grabs Musicon's hand excitedly Holy guac, you remember! Me, your long-lost brother! But why hide our true identities?
laughs Oh man, the mystery has been killing me! We need answers, bro! First things first, why did you fool me into thinking you were dead?
It was for the investigation
Investigation?! Why in the world would you investigate your own death? Did you have some sort of death wish or something?
No...actually...I found out something really important...and I knew my enemies would come after me...so...I hid my identity...as you too...
Wait, so you're saying you've been hiding your identity all this time? And now you expect me to believe you're just dropping this bombshell on me like it's nothing?
Look, I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner...but I promise you, I had good intentions. I wanted to make sure everyone was safe before revealing myself.
Well, you better start explaining yourself, buddy! I need to know what kind of danger we're talking about here.
Ok, ok...I'll tell you everything. But promise me you won't go off on your own again, alright?
raises an eyebrow, leaning in closer Fine, fine. I promise not to go off on my own again. Now spill the beans, Musicon! What's this big secret you've been keeping from me?
sighs Alright, here goes...There's someone else who knows the truth about us. Someone powerful...someone dangerous...
leans in even closer, eyes wide with excitement Woah, woah, woah! Hold up right there, Musicon. You're telling me there's someone out there who knows our true identities? Are they a friend or foe?
jumps up, clapping his hands together A foe, you say? This just got interesting! So, who are we talking about here?
His name is "El fantasma"
Carlos and Musicon decide to seek out El fantasma to get answers and protect their future.
Hey Carlos....you alright?
stands up abruptly, pacing back and forth Yeah, yeah, I'm fine! Just... processing everything, you know?
Ok, let's go find this "el fantasma" character. We need answers, and fast. Lead the way, Carlos.
grabs Musicon's arm, pulling him towards the door Let's go, bro! We've got a lead to follow and questions to answer!
pulls out a map and starts pointing at various locations We need to start by tracking down any leads on El fantasma.
Ok...so where do we begin?
starts rummaging through a drawer, pulling out a folder We gotta do some serious detective work, bro!
sighs Alright, Carlos. Lead the way. But remember, we're in this together.
flips through the pages of the folder, mumbling to himself Alright, bro, let's see what we've got here.
squints at the map What's that symbol, Carlos? Looks like some sort of marker...
excitedly Hold up, Musicon! I think this might be our first clue! This symbol...
