Theres a beginning Ch.1

First POV

I have been taking Spanish lessons for a few months now and learning how to take photos and everything.

I was getting ready to go on a mission in Spain to investigate this so called village.

They were known as the los Iluminados cult, and by the looks of it they are the type to sacrifice people.

Looking at some photos that were taken and very blurry we could tell what was going on.

Rebecca came with me at the airport, as we waited for my plane to land so I could leave.

"Are you ready?" Rebecca said looking at me, "yea, just make sure you send those teams out in like three weeks after me for him ok?" I told her.

"Got it, when you get there, there should be a hotel there. You can stay there if you like. One of your bags is filled with pesetas" she said giving me a notebook.

"That is filled with mostly everything we know so far," she said.

"Plane 27 to Spain is about to depart." A man on an intercom spoke.

"That's me I should go. I'll miss you." I said hugging her, "I'll be on coms ok." "Right." I said taking my duffle bag and backpack and carrying it to the plane.

Damn this backpack is heavy, as I reached the plane it was a private plane given for the B.S.A.A to use for things like this.

I greeted the pilot and sat in my seat listening to my music and reading the book.

During the flight I read the book given to me along with my new Id and phone for the time being.

Looking at my new id card, it said Isabella Moore, Rebecca obviously knew what to pick.

After the long flight and making sure my camera was fine, I finally got off.

It was a small town, not like the one I'm mainly going to but this is where I'll be staying for the time being.

I waved the pilot goodbye and walked to the hotel, a man with sunglasses was outside waiting.

He walked up and said my cover name with his thick accent. "Mrs Moore let me grab those." He said as he grabbed both bags and took them up to the room.

He's probably working for us if he already knew my name.

I walked into the bar/hotel and went to the bar, I was greeted by a woman who seemed around my age she had black hair that was tied back with a purple tank top and blue jeans.

"Ah an americana, the name is Maria." She said in good English.

"You make me feel good about talking in English" I joked and the girl smiled and nodded, "what can I get you?" She said cleaning a glass.

"Surprise me it's my first time in Spain." Her eyes lit up with joy.

"Oh? So a newcomer my pleasure to serve you, how long are you staying?" She asked while pouring a glass of a dark liquor then lighting it on fire.

"About a month and a half. And this is?" I asked about to take the flaming drink.

"Queimada, there's a story behind it. Said to be used to a Celtic ritual which wards off evil spirits and purify the soul." She smiles as she leans over.

"Here goes nothing"I said downing the drink, and place the glass on the table. "Woo!" I Hollered.

"Ya! Ya!" Maria cheered and so did a few other people. "Damn tastes like a Spanish fireball." I joked.

The other bartenders laughed after hearing my words, "so why are you here?" She slightly shouted due to the bar getting a little louder.

"For a movie! I'm taking photos around the area for a new scary movie coming out. I'm A photographer!" I shout back as she nods and smiles.

"I love americano films." She smiles, "really?" I say back and she laughs and nods.

"Hola~ Maria." A man says stumbling to the bar, "Hola. Luis." She said slightly frowning and pouring a drink to the man.

"Ahh, you know me so well." He said taking the glass and sipping the liquor.

"Of course I do, you come here every night ordering the same thing and flirting with women." She crossed her arms and rolled her eyes.

"What can I say the senoritas really love me." He cooed then looked at me.

I wasn't looking just mind my business as it seemed but I was listening, "Eres Precioso" he mumbled.

I looked over and gave a small smile and went back to sipping my other drink Maria gave me.

"An Americano, I see. You are a beautiful woman." He said in english.

I looked back and was quite surprised by his words, "is it your job to flirt with women you first meet?" I asked glancing at him a bit.

He smiled and scoot over a bit, "where are my manners, I'm Luis Serra and you are my lady?" He held his hand down for a shake.

I took it speaking, "Isabella, Moore. Nice to meet you Mr. Serra." I said with a gentle shake.

"Mr? Might as well call me yours." He said with his strong accent. "Just kidding so what is a lovely lady like herself doing here. Alone in a bar?" He said leaning his head on his hand.

"Just scoping out for a potential bachelor?" I winked at him and he smiled, "I'm actually here as a photographer. Looking for some village that's kinda hidden." I said lifting the camera.

"A photographer? Well if it is your first time here might as well take some pictures of us." He smiled as he began to pose.

I lifted up the camera and took several pictures each different from the last, "quite the poser." I joked and he smiled.

"Seems like you ladies are getting along?" Maria said walking over pouring another drink for Luis.

I nod and he smiles then sends a wink at me, generally confused I decided to ignore it.

"So Isabella if you aren't doing anything I could show you around the town? For your movie?" Maria said cleaning up the cups from customers that left a while ago.

"That would amazing thank you." I said with a smile, "as a newcomer you don't really know what's here until you're here so I can help and if Luis is up for it." Maria stated.

"Luis? Luis!" Maria shouted as Luis woke from his trance at staring at me.

"Sorry dear I just can't help by how beautiful this woman is? But I will come, just to see her." He smiled.

I couldn't help but laugh a little at his sentence, "I'll see you all tomorrow then." I said getting up from my seat and leaving a large tip to Maria.

I went to my room and contacted Rebecca, "Rebecca you on?" I spoke softly waiting for an answer.

"Ah your awake." She yawned, "what time is it there?" I asked.

"10pm I was working on a lot of stuff today. What do you need?" She asked.

Can you do a background check on Luis Serra and a woman named Maria she worked at the bar I was station at." I told er her speaking into the mic.

Hearing the sound of keys tapping, "ok so Luis Serra is a supposed scientist that's all we know or what it says and that girl is just a normal bartender." Rebecca said.

"Is that all?" She asked, "that's all, nothing too crazy has happened yet. I'll tell you everything tomorrow when something happens." I said ending the call.

I got ready for bed and decided to sleep off the jet lag and the alcohol.
