Her mother scolds her before Pao explains that Emma is missing and the police called her crazy because people like her mother created a stereotype for all Latinos. Her mother explains that the problems between the police and Latinos goes deeper then that and tells Pao to clean up the shards before going to bed. She wakes up to the smell of coffee and men's voices coming from the kitchen and she exits her room to find her mother, Dante, and his grandmother talking to two police officers. They introduce themselves as officers James and Tyler. She and Dante lead the police and her mother to river and explains the officer they talked to yesterday called them crazy and kicked them out of the station. When they reach the spot they ask her and Dante how often they can there and if anyone else knows about this spot. After she tells them about the man she saw and gives a basic description, the officers say they are done as Dante pushes them to do more. As they bicker, Pao goes to the river bank and pulls out some reeds, cutting her palm. As she starts to cry, she sees something on the ground and realizes it is Emma's ring. The police go back to the station to mount a search and Pao stays with Dante. As they are alone in his room, she reveals the dream she had about the Mesa kidnappings and Emma's disappearance, which he believes. As they watch the news and eat lunch, they watch the story about Emma and learn that other girls around her age with expensive jewelry have gone missing as well. As they watch they hold hands until his grandmother returns. Two hours later she goes back to the Mata apartment to convince Dante to look for clues before the police arrive. He gives her a look that he thinks she is crazy. However Dante's grandmother appears in his doorway tandem has them come out. She closes the blinds and lights candles to perform and ritual. She gives Dante her slipper, which changes into something he would wear, and Pao and bag. She has them smear her Florida Water on them and tells them they have until the Summer Solstice in five days and that someone is afraid tone dreamer, which Pao thinks is her. After that the old woman's eyes glow green and she passes out. Dante moves her to the couch and checks her pulse as invisible waves force them to leave. She goes immediately while Dante clings to his abuela for as long as he could. When they are pushed out they see green light coming from his apartment as Dante desperately tries and fails to get back. They then head to the Gila. When they arrive he demands to know the rest of her plan, when she has nothing he berates her for dragging him into this and for not leaving it to the police. He apologizes soon after, explaining his concerns for his grandmother. Soon they hear a scream that Pao thinks is Emma and she runs into a nearby cactus field with him close behind, however they become separated. He finds Pao unconscious and calls her name until she wakes up. She explains how she ran into Marisa Martínez and was stabbed by her. He reluctantly checks her back and finds nothing. He suggests they turn back but she refuses, she empties the bag his grandmother gave them to reveal a bottle of Florida water and a flashlight Pao's father gave her. He demands they go back and leave it to the police and she berates him for wanting to swap her out for the cool kids, which he does deny, and she walks of with him calling after her. However she ends up right back where she started and keeps returning to him no matter where she goes. She kicks the flashlight in frustration and the two apologize and laugh at the situation. Pao then notices that the beam bends east no matter where they point it and they follow it. As dusk approaches Pao marks an X in the sand as the light beam changes to shine west. They continue east until they return to the X. He and Pao are separated again but he finds her along with a sliver haired girl. She flinches when she sees his grandmother's slipper and calls it a Arma del Alma. She reluctantly lets them come with her. They ask her questions, which she ignores, as she takes them to the encampment of the Niños de la Luz, the children of the light. She brings them to their leader, Marisa, who tells them they have no new comers when they ask about Emma. When they learn he has an Arma del Alma, she asks him to see it and he reluctantly hands it over. She explains that it is a weapon passed between generations of family members that is tied to a person's life force and expresses disappointment that his grandmother failed to teach him how to properly use it. He snaps at the comment and an argument breaks out before him and Naomi until Marisa calms things down and let's them spend the night.

They leave the tent to find the camp overrun with severed hands he recognized as La Mano Panchona, one grabs him by the ankle and drags him out of camp with Pao trying to free him. Pao remembers the clancha and grabs it, after it doesn't work for her she gives it to Dante. When he touches it him it turns into a yard long black club that revitalizes his strength. He bludgeons it until it turns into a pile of goo and they rush back to camp. He helps fends off the Mano and goes over to Pao after one suddenly stops strangling her. He stays with her as the Niños search the camp for Manos they might have missed. Naomi comes over to the two and complements them for their actions during the attack. As she and Dante look at each other, Pao coughs loudly and she tells them to come to the mess. After Marisa tells the Niños to rest for a day of cleaning the camp, he and Pao are told to stay behind as the older girls explain the purpose of the Niños. They reveal they are one of many groups in countless worlds keeping monsters at bay and invite them to join, as the veil between worlds weakens during the Summer Solstice and the third quarter further weakens it. After learning his loved ones are in danger, he agrees to help as Pao berates him for abandoning Emma. He believes they have a better shot at finding Emma after the solstice and calls Pao jealous as she leaves. He sleeps close to Pao and she wakes him up to tell him she is temporarily joining the Niños. She fills him in on what she learned and Sal comes in to congratulate them on joining. Soon Marisa calls them to the training pit. When Pao selects a dagger to fight with, he has trouble activating his weapon until Naomi throws a knife at Pao. Once he activates it he trains with Marisa, and manages to block little of his attack, while Pao trains with Naomi, who fares much better. They break when Marisa tells them about the double threat from the overlapping Summer Solstice and third quarter. Before they can resume, they get word of an attack from the east and Marisa tells him to go with Naomi and Pao to stay behind as she would district Dante. As Pao protests, he kisses her cheek and promises to return. However he is taken by the enemy. As three children are deposited in the Rift, he charges at the supernatural creatures surrounding them. He soon reunites with Pao and nearly hurts Bruto before Pao stops him, causing him confusion about her adopting a chupacabra puppy.

Ondina commands them to mount the chupacabras and they obey with him getting on immediately and Pao resisting for a second. When they enter the nearby palace they dismount and Ondina orders them to climb a set of stairs. When Pao is with La Llorona, he is seen as one of the sacrifices in resurrecting Ondina along with Emma and Franco. After the orb powering The Rift is drained, he and the other sacrifices are freed and he stands between Pao and La Llorona. When the orb is shattered, the area around them starts to fall apart and he watches as La Llorona and Ondina pass on. They float upward and breach the surface of the Gila and swim to shore. As they walk he sticks close to Franco and they run into three Niños as they head back to camp. He shows of his club and point up Bruto when he returns to his friends. Marisa shows them out of the cactus field and they head to the Riverside Palace Apartments as Pao makes up a story of Emma getting lost in the cactus field and staying put while he and Pao got lost looking for her.
