Chihuahuan Desert, a cold desert expanding in the nations of the United States and Mexico. In the dark full moon night, in the middle of this massive desert slept Jaime Reyes. Jamie is an average teenager of hispanic decent even with black, neck long hair and a body too blend in crowds; nothing special. He slowly woke up, from what exactly his unknown to him. Unsure of why Jaime slept in the middle of nowhere or how he got there to begin with, only to add a major question through his head, "Madrina, why am I naked!"

He found himself in his bare body, not even socks or his watch are present on his skin. Soon Jamie attempt to recollect how he got into this position, instead he finds a massive headache which even a over the counter medicine cannot cure. With both hands on his forehead, Jaime attempt to ease his head of the massive migraine going through his brain. After a few minutes, with his brain still in agony; the naked man to spoke out loud,"How did this happen, the last thing I remember..."

El Paso, Texas

"Si mama, I am heading to Padre's right now." said Jamie talking on his cell phone to his mother while he skateboards through the abandon streets of El Paso.

"I hope so hijo. I hate that you've been hanging with Paco, that boy is a bad influence to you."

"Come on mama, I've known Paco since we where in elementary, besides you knew we where hanging out with Brenda for her cumplea?os."

"Sé Jamie, but the doesn't change the fact that he's in the Posse."

"It's more complicated than that. Can we talk about this when we get back home."

"Si"

"Gracias, hasta pronto."

He hang up the phone, boom; suddenly a massive explosion send Jamie off his skateboard, sliding him on his backside through the pavement road. Slowly, he stood up from his massive road rash only to experience the massive heat coming from the now burning apartment complex. Not sure what happen, he began to reach into his pocket for his phone to call for the fire department, realizing that the building is not the only thing that is burning. Either debris or from the explosion, his jacket caught on fire and without thinking, he took off both his jacket and shirt before the fire could touch his skin throwing them onto the ground.

Breathing heavy from fear, Jaime looked at his burning cloths and with his eyes, he catches a queer blue object laying near his burning cloths. Unsure why, Jaime finds himself intrigue of the blue object that just now he picked up to examine it closer. With a closer look, Jamie finds that the weightless object is design like a beetle of sorts with legs but the size is larger than a normal beetle since the object is about the size of his own hand.

Suddenly, the legs of the beetle began to move. It quickly ran over his hand, crawling over the arm, shoulder, and back. Jaime attempt to grab the object running over his skin again then to experience sharp pain running in his spine. With the massive pain, came skin tearing apart in some sort of replacement metal running on his back then his shoulders, arms, hands, legs, feet, neck and finally the head being engulfed in scrapping pain; then only too see nothing.

Present

The explosion is the last event Jaime could recall from his memories. Without thinking much more, he stood up as a shivering, bare teenager from the cold sand of the desert's cold air night. Walking began to take place, in his movements, Jamie had to wrap his arms around each other, close to the body and keep his mind occupied to ignore the pain of the cold.

"Why not?" asked a large sixteen year old boy.

"Because, my aunt had to make last minute scheduling with her job." answered a same aged girl.

Jaime sat next to his two friends during lunch hours of El Paso High School while he listen to their conversation. The boy is large guy for his age, not fat but not muscular just a larger guy than Jaime in both height and width. The girl on the other hand is about the same height as Jamie yet thinner however unlike the other two who are latino decent with black hair; she's half white with short, red hair. The large guy named Paco Testas, made a comment, "Uh well, so much for the partido. I guess I can't pick up with any chicas."

"And with that, you are no longer invited." replied Brenda Del Vecchio the red head.

"So what are you planning to do on your birthday then?" asked Jaime.

"I guess we can go to movies tomorrow"

"Yeah we can watch Black Snake Moan." suggested Paco.

"I just told you that your no longer invited. And it's my birthday, I decide what movie where watching."

"So am I re-invited?"

"No, and stop making up words. As of now, only Jaime is allowed."

"Come on, Brenda." begged Paco, "Your lucky Jaime, looks like your going on a dátil."

"Ah-what are you kidding me Paco!" Jaime yelled in shock.

Paco notice a slight blush on both Jaime and Brenda. Taking advantage of the situation, the large teenager smirk before he about say, "Well if thats case, then Brenda don't get to over your heels with this hot-head."

"Shut up!" screamed Brenda with her fists slamming on the table when standing in order to leave in anger.

"I know now that you are never coming to any partido for the rest of your life." Jaime telling the large young man.

At Reyes Gas and Service, Jaime visit his father, Alberto at his work. His father owned the station for twenty years while running himself about forty years. Despite the age, Jaime is a bit embarrassed for not being a well muscle man like his father. Jaime came by to drop off his super that Jaime's mother gave him for his Dad. When arriving, Jaime see's his dad working on a car's engines and asked his father, "Working doubles again, Padre?"

"Jaime?" Alberto a bit surprised to see his son here, "Shouldn't you be at home working on your homework hijo?"

"Well I kinda do."

"Then you should be at home and be doing that or you'll be like Luis."

Jaime knew what his Dad was talking about. Luis works under Alberto and he often calls off work, probably drug related Jaime always thought but he isn't to sure. "Luis called off again?"

"If it wasn't for church, I would fire his ass by now."

"If you do, then can you allow me to help you out in the garage?" asked Jaime, attempting to help his father, "You've been working multiple shifts for weeks now."

"No way Jaime, you're not working here, this place isn't for you. I want you to get high grades and go to college."

"I know you want that Padre but there is no way you can keep this kind of work at the rate your going."

Alberto sigh, "Then how about this, if your grades are high by end's year, you can work here over the summer. If that fine with you."

"Sounds fair."

"By the way, what are you doing here Jaime."

"Madre wanted me to give this to you." Jaime said giving a brown paper bag of food to his father, "And to tell you that I can't hang out with you and Mila tomorrow. Gonna be with Paco for Brenda's birthday at the movies."

"Paco?" questioned his dad, "Does your mother know that your hanging out with him?"

"She does."

"And she's okay with this?"

"Not really."

"And she still allows you to go out with him?"

"Well she made a exception since it is Brenda's birthday."

Alberto rubbed his head, "Hard to argue with that but I want you finish your homework before you go."

"Understood."

"And make sure you go home by ten."

"I know."

"Also make sure you don't get into trouble."

"I know." a annoyed Jaime said, "I've gotta go now, Madre want's me mom by six."

Jaime is about to leave on his skateboard when his dad said, "Also make sure you bring Mila to my house tomorrow"

"I know. See you tomorrow Predre!"

Present

His feet is numb, his breath is visible, and his bare body shivers in the cold night. Jaime Reyes currently in agony, did not know how long he walked on the cold sand of the desert. Attempting to keep his mind occupied is becoming more difficult with the only thing thats going on in his mind is the annoying pain of his body.

Eyes widen, Jaime sees some kind of street sign in the distant. He could not read it from his location so he ran towards the sign in hopes that he was close to some kind of civilization. Despite his weaken state, he just needed to find someone to help him, give him shelter, give him food, water, or even clothing. Only a few minutes passed however for Jaime it felt like a hour, but now he can read the sign, El Paso 4 Miles.

He didn't care how he was miles away from home, only to be happy that he was at least near his home and to find a road now that he can walk on. Despite the excitement, he collapsed on the road. "Muy...agotado." whispered Jaime seeing two bright lights heading in his direction. All he can do is to lay their and go deep into his thoughts.

Jaime sat in the first period Math Class. Todays Brenda's birthday, yet Jaime noticed that she is not in school today either is Paco as well. Even though it is forbidden, Jaime pulled out is phone in class to check on any messages he missed today. '8:01 Today: Srry got stuf to do, cnt make it skool 2d or make it to partty. From MachoPaco', '8:07 Today: Paco cant make it today, just you and me at the theater 7:30. From DelBrend'. Jaime found only two messages on the phone, he's not sure why Paco cannot make it today and yet Brenda gave no reason why she cannot make it to school today.

12:04 PM

At lunch, Jaime tried to call both Brenda and Paco, instead all he encounter are the answering machines. Even though it was odd, Jaime did not think much of it. He just finished his lunch and continue the final school day of the week.

18:44 PM

Knocked, Jamie stood in front of his father's apartment door with Milagro; his younger, 12 year old sister but with longer black hair than her older brother. Alberto open his door and welcoming his kids, "Hola you two, earlier than I thought."

"Hola Padre." Jaime responded, "I didn't want to be late for the movies so I decide to drop off your daughter early."

"Jaime didn't want me come with him." Milagro pouted.

"Don't worry Mila, we're going to have fun as well."

"Whatever papa."

"But first did you two finish your homework."

"Si" both siblings said at once.

"With that, despedida you two and más tarde." said Jaime while walking away in the apartment hallway.

"Be sure your here by ten." Alberto telling Jaime.

19:24 PM

The jean, shirt and jacket wearing Jaime, supporting his back in front of the theater's wall while waiting for Brenda to arrive. Jaime continue to check both his phone and watch to pass the time and make sure nothing as happen to either of his friends. He did not hear anything from them all day, which is weird considering that he went a day in ten years without at least talking to at least one of them. Speaking of them, he sees a red car pulling up to the theater's parking lot, which the car belongs to Brenda since it was given to her by her aunt when Brenda got her driver's permit.

Relieved, Jamie walked towards the now parked car with skateboard and a gift wrap present in hand. A red head got out of the car, Brenda did not wore anything spacial just blue jeans and a long sleeve shirt except for the sunglasses. "Feliz cumplea?os!" said Jaime handing out the gift for her.

"Gracious, Jaime." Brenda thanked him while accepting the gift.

Deep down, Jaime knew why she wore the sunglasses during the night but he asked, "Brenda what's up with the sunglasses?"

"Oh-uh nothing really, just my eyes are hurting today."

"Brenda." Jaime paused before continuing, "Please tell me why your really wearing those glasses."

"I already told you."

He put his hand, reaching for the sunglasses and without any resistance from her, he pulled them off of her. Under those glasses he saw a massive black spot on her left eye. "Did your father do this to you." Jaime worried.

"Not your concern Jaime."

"It is Brenda, just why don't you go to the police or something."

"It does not concern you!" she yelled.

"Why don't you allow anyone to help you!"

"Why do you care!"

"Because I lo...like you." Jaime said with only silence in the air now.

A few seconds pass, with both of them looking away at each other without knowing what to do, Jaime began their conversation, "Arrepentido. This is your birthday, uh...what movie did you want to see?"

"Well um...I guess um Amazing Grace."

"Okay, lets get some tickets and snacks before the movie starts then."

"Sure." she said while she put her sunglasses over her eyes once again.

21:36 PM

The movie ended, and Brenda decided to take Jaime home, or at least to his father's apartment. They did not talk much during or after the movie. Jaime continue to recap the pain that Brenda been through over the years. Since her mother died, her dad had hit her on multiple occasions and to hide her bruises she usually wears full body clothing. Before long Brenda pulled the car into a empty car lot. Confused Jaime asked, "What are we doing here?"

Brenda then said, "Thank you."

"For what?" asked the confused teenager.

"Thank you for caring about me. The only people who seem to care are you, Paco, and my aunt. So I have to ask you something Jaime."

She gulped, waiting to Jaime to respond with, "What's that?"

"Back at the theater you said, well um... the thing is...is, do you like me Jaime?" this shocked the boy before Brenda could continue, "I mean do you, like me...in that way."

"Well um..." Jaime flabbergasted.

"Ok, well um...I should take you..." before she finish her sentence, Jaime put his lips onto hers.

In the spur of the moment without thinking, they began to take each others clothes off. In their moment, the now seventeen year old girl and the seventeen year old boy had sex. Both inexperience the joy of the ritual, it only lasted for a few minutes and afterwards both took a rest and thought to themselves that their first time would ever be in a car. After taking their rest, Brenda asked, "Does this make us boyfriend and girlfriend?"

Jaime did not answer instead he looked at the time on his watch to see that it was about seven minutes to ten. "Mierda!" shouted Jaime.

He quickly savage all of his discarded clothing and put them on at the same speed he found them. In shock, Brenda asked, "What's wrong Jaime?"

"I have to be home by ten and if I don't, Padre is going to ground me and make sure I never work at the garage."

"Give me a minute and I can take you home."

"You don't have to besides I don't want you to get in trouble on your cumplea?os." the boy said right before putting his clothes on.

The fully clothed teenage was about to leave the car with his skateboard until he kiss Brenda on the lips before he left. Brenda in the car smiled while Jaime smiled as well whispering to himself, "I guess we are parejo."

Present

Slowly, the young man open his eyes. From his position he can see a white ceiling with low lit florescent light bulbs. Has far that Jaime could tell he slept on a gurney in a hospital in addition by observing the room, the young man is the only patient in the room with his body covered by a gauze. He attempted to get up however he quickly noticed the metal cuffs chained him on the gurney's metal bars from his right wrist. Panicking, Jaime began to yell, "Hey! Whats going on here! How did I get here? Cualquiera!"

"Calm down chavel." said a latino middle aged man in a police uniform.

Jaime stopped yelling in the sight of not only of the police officer yet another officer that Jaime could tell since he wore decent clothes. The other officer is white unlike the officer who just spoke and unlike him who as black hair, the decent dressed guy male as blond hair. "Your Jaime Reyes correct?" asked the blond man.

"Si. Who are you?"

"I'm Officer Hymick and this is Officer Flores, we just have a couple of questions to ask you." said the blond officer, "Do mind If I ask you."

"Okay?" puzzled Jaime looking at Officer Hymick.

"First question I like to ask is that Officer Flores found you naked outside of the city. Like to explain how you got into that condition?

"I don't know, sir."

"Okay, then have you taken any drugs, alcohol or any other subsistence?"

"What? No way!" Jaime said in anger.

"Okay then...can you explain what the thing on your back is?"

"What? I don't know what your talking about."

"Really chavel?" Officer Flores said instead in anger, "You have no idea how that weird basura on your back got onto you?"

In confusion Jaime attempted to reach for his back with his free hand to understand what they are talking about. He felt something metal through his spine, it feared him however it was the least scary thing he had to fear. Something, Jaime felt something big laying on his back but he can barely reach for it thus he cannot have a firm grasp in what the thing is exactly. "What the hell is this thing!" screamed Jaime.

"We don't know kid, I was hoping you could tell us." said the blond officer, "And if you don't know what how that happen to you do mind telling us what you do remember."

Jaime did not hear him, instead focus on trying to reach for the object on his back. "Chavel!" Officer

Flores yelled at Jaime making him stop.

"What!"

"Answer the questions you damn Chavel!"

"Calm down Flores." Officer Hymick told him, "Now Mister Reyes, how are ready to answer more questions?"

Jaime began to calm down, he finally relax to say, "Yes I'm ready. What's the question again."

"Whats the last thing you remembered?"

"I was heading back my Padre's home after me and Brenda went to the movies when a apartment building exploded...thats all I remembered." Jaime saw the confused look on the officers, "Something wrong?"

The more aggressive officer spoke first, "Chavel, that was about a year ago."

Disbelieved, Jaime asked, "What are you talking about?"

"To be direct that explosion occurred around March of last year."

"Wait, what year is it?"

"2008"
