Bless me Ultima #9 Ch.10

Chapter 10 is were the rising action starts to build, so Tony's mother receives the unfortunate news that his brother Lucas had been bewitched, and that it was the work of a bruja (witch). he was so sick that he was now on his death bed. They said that he witnessed the witches dancing around a ball of fire and that to silence him they chose to curse him, a curse that caused him to have his mouth clamped shut, preventing him from eating or talking. Tony's mom pleaded to Ultima to help her brother out and she said yes. She told Tony to come with her.

Ultima then tells them that it was the work of Tenorios daughters, they are known as the three brujas who work at a hair salon. They fulfilled their curse one day when Lucas went to cut his hair at their salon, they saved a piece of his hair and with that the potion was complete. I found it so interesting how Anaya tells his stories, they are so interesting and make so much sense that i have memorized them. Anyways back to the story, Ultima goes to visit Tenorio at his house, she tells him to tell her daughters to take the curse off of Lucas, he laughs at her and tells her shes crazy. Ultima threates him with the life of his daughters, he laughs again and throws her out of his store.

Ultima then goes to the house in which Lucas is in, he is fragile. She gives him a whole lot of potions until he throws up a ball of hair, the hair that the three sisters used to curse him. It takes three days to take this curse off, and Lucas is saved. Ultima puts a curse on the three sisters. Since i already read the book I know that the three sisters will die because of the curse that Ultima placed on them.
