The stranger stood in the dark shadows by the door. His large sombrero was pulled down over his eyes. He wore a long dark cloak around his body. Then the stranger stepped forward into the light. Sergeant Gonzales?s eyes were wide with surprise. The stranger was wearing a black mask. There were two holes in the mask. Through these holes, his bright eyes were watching everything. ´I?m Señor Zorro,´ said the man. ´And I?m here to speak to you.´ He pointed at Gonzales. ´Four days ago you stopped a man on the road and beat him cruelly. The man was poor and weak. He hadn?t done anything wrong. I?m a friend of that poor man. I?ve come to punish you!´ There are movies of this story.
