Summary: Diego isn't living his real life. He is living in his play..





	The play

**One of my first scrabbles. Please review and tell me what I've done wrong, so I can do it better the next time.. Oh, and sorry for my bad English..**

**I'm just trying to keep zorro alive..**

**The play.**

Diego de la Vega rides, hidden beneath the mask of Zorro, back in his cave. He still felt the adrenaline of today's events rushing through his body. He dismounted Toronado, and changed his material mask for his invisible mask of _Diego, _the weak man.

The last few years, since he got back to Los Angeles, the world he was living in was a lie. Well, he didn't view it like a lie. He saw his last few years more like his masterpiece, his play, or a con. In Madrid he loved to be in a play, or he just pretended to be someone else. It gave him freedom. The freedom to choose who he was, to experience how others lived. Not to always be the rich don, son of an important caballero.

And now in Los Angeles his deceive, or play as Diego would say, has reached another level. Of course, he did it all for a higher purpose, justice. It wasn't right what the Alcalde has been doing, but Diego had to admit, he actually loved the way he 'composed' his life. And of course, sometimes he didn't like to deceive the ones he loved, but an actor has to stick to his role.

The role of Zorro was the most important role he was playing and perhaps more fun in short terms. But the role of Diego was more difficult, had more depth and Diego was actually proud of the character he had developed all these years.

But his play was maybe getting out of the hand. Five years have passed and still the play wasn't over. He was getting tired of playing, deceiving the people he loved. But he knew it wasn't the right time to quit. His story he created wasn't over, and Diego didn't know how long it would go on if he didn't put an end to it.

But how good Diego was in creating and playing his character, he wasn't that good at the story. He needed someone who told what there was going to happen, what he should do. Yes, he was spirited enough to start one, but he never knew how to end one.

But he couldn't play much longer. Every time when he played Zorro or Diego he wanted to show everyone the real Diego. He wanted to act like the real himself again. It has been 5 years, and he was starting to forget who he really was, how the real Diego would have reacted. If he didn't stop his play where he lived in, he would totally change and blend in the play.

But the purpose of the play wasn't accomplished. The whole reason why he started the play was to bring justice to the people of Los Angeles, but they were still far away from this goal.

So the show must go on..
