" and...that's what happened. After I got to the living, I have to find a place to stay so I can save my family. But then. While I was looking for a home for weeks then, I found a lovely couple that ask me to look after there son for them, while there in a rush. and... that's when I met you. " after I explained them about my past, they were so shock about it. " but. Why didnt you tell me? "
" because. i don't want you to think I'm crazy. " I said " crazy? I dont think your crazy. I just think your the coolest friend I ever have who understands me! " Miguel said, with a warm smile. Aw, bless him. "Wait! " oh great. What now Imelda! " if she had her blessing, then why can't We do it? " Imelda asked, I guess she wants to go back to the living as well then...great. " I'm afraid you can't mam. You see it's very risky for you to have that bless that will cause you to fade. "
Imelda nodded for understanding and clerks continues his explained of how to get Miguel home. " where was i? Ah yes! But not to worry! Your family's here, you can get your blessing right now. " The clerk said. He searches the ground and found a petal from Tía Rosita dress from earlier. " Cempasúchil, cempasúchil. Aha! Perdón, señora. " the clerk said and picks it out her dress. He hands the petal to Mamá Imelda. " Now, you look at the living and say his name. "
" Miguel. " Imelda said Miguels name " Nailed it. Now say: I give you my blessing. " the clerk said as the 2nd instruction " I give you my blessing. " imelda said and the petal started to glow. Miguel was impress. But she hasnt done her job. " I give you my blessing to go home...To put my photo back on the ofrenda...And to never play music again! "
" What? She can't do that! " Miguel asked in shock. She can't do this to him. " Well technically she can add any conditions she wants. " the clerk said. He can't do that, he can't give up music- " Fine. " Miguel sa- what! " Then you hand the petal to Miguel. " Imelda passes Miguel the petal, he touch it and disappears. " well, job done. " dorito said " i swear, he will come. "
" no he won't! He will do as i say. " Imelda said, until... miguel? " i told you he'll come back. " I told them " Two seconds and you already break your promise! " Imelda yelled at Miguel. That's it! I had enough of this! " This isn't fair, it's his life! You already had yours! Give him a break for once! " i said, giving imelda a glare Miguel grabs another petal from the floor and walks to his family. " Papá Julio, I ask for your blessing. " Miguel said. But he was too scared. " Tía Rosita? Oscar? Felipe? Tía Victoria? Step-papa Doritos? "
" Don't make this hard, mijo. You go home my way, or no way. " imelda said " You really hate music that much? " miguel said " I will not let you go down the same path he did. " Imelda said. " the same path he did. He's family... " oh wait... another quest. " Listen to your Mamá Imelda. " " She's just looking out for you. " " Be reasonable. " Rosita said. " Con permiso, I... need to visit the restroom. Be right back! " Miguel said, and walks out the room. " um, I'm just go to see... If I forgot my flower on me. " I acted, and walked out the room too.

Me and Miguel went down the stairs quickly to get away from the riveras. As we made it down, we looked up the upper floor and saw the riveras talking to the security guard. We hid behind the stair case and spotted the exit " Vámonos " Miguel said and puts his hoodie on and We start walking. We looked up for one last time, they're talked to another security guard. " If I wanna be a musician, I need a MUSICIAN'S blessing. We gotta find my great-great grandpa. " Miguel said " okay, just don't- "
" Hold it, guys. " Patrolman said. We turned around and Miguel revealed himself to the guard. " Ahh! [ Patrolman grabs his walky talky to speak. ] I've found that living boy! " he said. We're busted. But then, A large family passes between me, Miguel and the officer, chatty, arms full of offerings, just enough time to escape from his officer.
Me, Miguel and Dante hid behind the wall from the officer. But then Dante decided to wander off to go and see the room " No, no -- Dante! " miguel yelled, whisperly. We went inside the room and caught Dante. " Dante! Don't do that again. " I said. Then, we heard something, or someone talking. " ...disturbing the peace, fleeing an officer, falsifying a unibrow... " the officer said, listing the things he's done the past years. " That's illegal? " the man questions " VERY illegal. You need to clean up your act, amigo. " the officer said " Amigo? Oh, that's so nice, to hear you say that, because...
I've just had a really hard Día de Muertos, and I could really use an amigo right now. And amigos, they help their amigos. Listen, you get me across that bridge tonight and I'll make it worth your while. Oh, you like de la Cruz? He and I go way back! I can get you front row seats to his Sunrise Spectacular Show! "
" Uh-- " " I'll -- I'll get you backstage, you can meet him! You just gotta let me cross that bridge! " the man said, begging for the officer to get him to cross the bridge." I should lock you up for the rest of the holiday... But my shift's almost up, and I wanna visit my living family... so I'm letting you off with a warning. " the officer said " Can I at least get my costume back? " the man asked " Uh, no. " the man sighs and walks past us without even knowing " Some amigo... " he sais " okay, .ets keep calm aaaannnd he left. "
I started to ran to miguel when. " hold! " the guard stopped me. Great! "Sir, I'm am in a hurry here. Can you please- " " mollene. " the guard said, noticing who I am " mollene beauty~ I didn't expect you to come here. My name is bob by the way~ " he greets me with a smirk. " oh, H-hello bob. It's nice to meet you. " I said. This will be a while.

I run towards the guy who knows about my grand father. Can he really take me to him? " Hey. Hey! You really know de la Cruz? " i asked him "Who wants to-- Ah! You're alive! " he screamed, i cant deal with this " Shhh! " I shush him and push him inside the phone box. " Yeah I'm alive. And if I wanna get back to the Land of the Living, I need de la Cruz's blessing. " I said " That's weirdly specific. " he said " He's my great-great-grandfather. " i told him " He's your wha-whaat...? " the man was so shock that his eyes fell into his mouth. It was pretty gross. But adventully he puts his eyes back to his head. " Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait... [gasp] Wait, no, wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait? Yes! You're going back to the Land of the Living?! "
" D'ya know what, maybe this isn't such a g-- " I freaked out by that guy a bit that I got out the telephone box, then. He stops me "No, niño, niño, niño, I can help you! You can help me. We can help each other! But most importantly, you can help ME. " he said, I looked behind him and saw my family. But the I got spotted by mama Imelda. " Miguel! " she called
