Sun well they took out his teeth and they took off his eyes they took all his tools and just left plain white corn in its place the false pride went out of seven macaw and he died his wife died two seven days had come to pass several days since the summons hunter and Jaguar deer took their blowguns and went down down through the canyons down to scorpions as River and Blood River the underworld people thought that the twins would be destroyed but they did not touch the deadly water they crossed it on their blowguns at the crossroads they were not confused like their fathers had been they

not tricked as their fathers had been very well just go on in the house the house I'm darkness the first trial of Shambhala these are your torches these are your cigars they must burn all night but give them back home in the morning ah but the twins did not like anything they attached fireflies to the ends of their cigars and written parrot feathers to the end of the torches when the Nightwatchman looked in he was sure he saw fire burn he was sure that twins were defeated in the morning they handed back their torches and cigars horn and the evil Lords lost the Lords of Xibalba

this time we'll win immediately the boys spoke to the knives for all time what is yours is the flesh of all animals the knives became still they were quiet all night the twins were safe for the moment but how would they get the flowers the boys spoke again come night ends come petting n go to the garden of one death go to the garden of seven death bring us four gourds of flowers in the garden the watchman had been warned not to let the boys cut flowers they stayed awake and called to each other but never noticed the ends climbing the trees and crawling over their tools cutting the treasures of one death cutting the treasures of seven death at dawn the twins came out of the house of knives with red yellow white and black blossoms the Lord's became purple with anger and split the Owls mouths as punishment and that's how skill on the Lord's were really distressed they played a couple of tight games with the prunes and locked them up in the house of coal it was all frost Oh hail completely frozen the twins destroyed the poll by lighting fires in the old tree stumps the Lords of Xibalba will be coming fight and they wondered the twins dead so they locked him in the house of Jaguars don't eat us we will give you what belongs to you for all time they dumped piles of bones before the beasts the crunching of the bones was a sweet sound to the watchman's years as they imagined the twins torn limb from limb at dawn all the people of Sebulba were amazed there they were hunter and Jaguar deer alive and even well the underworld was losing heart those boys just would not die they put him in the house of bags we're we're nothing but death backs huge vampire bats with fangs like my but calling into the Globex the Queen's soundly all night suddenly it was still wonder how always see the dawn I will look isn't on yet what are you doing ruptor are you gone all the people of Shipibo rejoiced as hunters head rolled around the ball they had really won this time and it had not been easy Jaguar deer called all the animals large and small to come to him with their food they brought different things decaying things dirty things at last coati brought a pumpkin to become the head of hunter it was not easy to finish the face and so possum was called to delay the dawn four times he darkened the world so that Herc of sky could add brains and finish the face is it good yes it is good but you'd better not play at all just make lots of threats and I'll play alone the boys looked well and healthy they went down to play ball and saw the head of hunter at the mall Accord we need your own when you finish you have already lost blew up and out of the court rabbit had been waiting he bounded off and all of you Baba chased him shouting and running after they thought Jaguar deer exchanged the pumpkin for hunters hit before she bought what returned how does that feel much better thank you brother here it is boom megablade long they played again the pumpkin had smashed into the wall and straight pumpkin seeds over all the Lord that is the VP of the Lords of sickness and the Lords of darkness hunter and Jaguar deer had endured all the trials of Shabalala they had neither died nor had they been defeated yet still the Lords of Xibalba rule it was then that the twins saw the sign in their hearts they would die die by fire in Kabbalah and their bones would be cast into the river they called procedures to sages tell the lords to grind our bones on stones the way fresh corn is ground and to throw it into the river say that this is your prophecy hey boys up here come on play a game with us let us drink and fly four times over the fire boys you can't deceive us we will not play your game the twins looked into the huge fire that the men of C biloba had built they embraced each other jumped into the fire and died together they died that day just as the sea must die before it is born she ball bar was crazy with joy saying to the ground phones into the river the boat sank to the bottom five days later they were seen as Fishman two old beggars in rags came to see Baba they didn't do anything they just danced the screech owl they danced the armadillo and the centipede they could does still dance too soon everyone in the underworld was watching them and talking about them because sometimes they would burn down houses that would be there again and kill themselves and come back to life again who are these two fingers are they really amusing owls tell them tell them to come here tell them to come so that we may see what they do that we may admire them and regard them with wonder the Owls invited the beggars but they were too ashamed oh no - we are afraid the Owls beat them and herded them to the house of the Lords where do you come from you don't know overlord we never knew the names of our mother and our thought what do you want for your pay oh we couldn't take anything let my house that was truly marvelous and let my dog be sacrificed in this then revive his face sacrifice this man rip his heart out ha now sell rice yourselves interns so that we can see it this sholde so gladden the hearts of one death and seven death that they felt like they were dancing and making music themselves their hearts were filled with the desire and the longing to be part of the dance are you doing to us sacrifice us in the same way Sacramento's in green ass well they sacrificed one death and seven death and they did not bring him back to life and it was then that they reveal themselves we are hunter and Jaguar deer and these are our fathers who
