Sangre y Mascaras

You’re used to being approached by people. If you’re being honest with yourself, the celebrity is part of why you became a luchador. Most of the time, they want a photo, or for you to sign something, or just to shake your hand before they walk away excitedly. But tonight was different. A man, eyes wild and red with tears, grabbing the lapels of your suit, begged and pleaded for you to help find his daughter. The authorities are no help, he said, and he saw your picture in the paper with the scientists she was working for. Last week, they had gone to explore some ancient ruins and uncover the tomb of a long dead Mayan prince. They were due back three days ago, and he hadn’t heard anything. As the man continued to explain, you remembered how excited Dr. Wagner had been as he had left. You felt sure he’d have contacted you with his findings when he returned. You hadn’t heard from him either…
