On a Sunday night in February three of the new year twenty nineteen, two football teams were playing a physical game in the championship game. Millions of fans were cheering for their favorite teams as it was the fourth quarter, the score tied at three at piece with under one second left. The New England Patriots made a play as their quarterback throws the ball and the pass is complete as they made the game-winning touchdown. The crowd roars as their team won the title, while others were crying and feeling the pain of defeat as they see their losing team humiliated by such a close loss.
The score ended ten to three in favor of the Patriots. As the celebration began, people in attendance were leaving the stadium set in Atlanta with mixed feelings. In the middle of the crowd, was a happy man in his favorite team's colors scheme all over his face walked all the way to the store. He was looking for milk and a bag of Cameos. Once he got there, he gave his desirable stuff to a blonde lady to pay for the food.
"One second, please?" says the lady as she was registering the food. The young man walked by to see some stuff. Then, a black masked criminal came in and was drawing his gun to scare off the lady.
"Money, now! Or I will shoot your crying ass down!" said the criminal, forcing her to give him combined money of three hundred dollars. She was crying and fearing for her life as her hands were trembling and whimpering. The criminal smiles as he got what he wanted, but...
"One-second thoughts," he said as he changed his mind and fired his gin to the scary lady. He closes his eyes and laughs in satisfaction as he killed the woman, or so he thought.
As he opened his eyes, he was stunned. A sword blocked the bullet and the young man, who was watching everything, was in the way to protect the blonde lady. He was not only mad because the criminal was threatening her life, but he was angry that the criminal interrupted something important to him.
"Dude, seriously? I didn't attend to a friend's honeymoon to go to the stadium and watch the Superbowl, and you took my non-hero stuff day away," he says as the criminal was scared but fired his gun at him. The young man hits the bullets with his sword as he hits the criminal with a leg sweep on the criminal's ankle. He then uses his right hand to power up a blue streak and punches the criminal i. his chest and sent him flying and crashing through various food and refrigerator. The criminal was knocked unconscious while the lady was glad that this young man saved her life.
Are you okay, madam?" said the young man, offering her his right hand as she accepts it and gets lifted up by him.
"Yes. Thank you," says the lady. The young man was about to summon his money to pay for the food, but she extends both her arms to stop his movement.
"Oh, no! It's, it's on the house," she says, offering to not pay him the money for the food. The young man does it anyway. He lends her a total of five million dollars as he took his Cameos and milk, while she was stunned by the amount of money he gave up, but she then understood why he did it, showing his gratitude and hospitality towards her.
"Keep the change," he says as he leaves the store and the woman looked surprised while she was waving her hero goodbye.
The young walk around the streets to look for his car through the crowd late at night. He was eating his Cameo cookies along with the milk, and seeing the beautiful lights from the stars and the traffic light posts. Once he made it to his car, he saw a little figure with a black hoodie and white gloves. The young man looked confused but slowly drew his sword in case he was facing a threat.
"Excuse me, can I help you?" said the young man as the black figure vanished. He was surprised and looked around for this strange individual. He then steps on an envelope. He gets his glasses so that he can read the letter.
"May your heart be your guiding key, Jose."
Jose looked even more confused and curious by the letter on the envelope. He opens it and sees a map towards a supposed treasure.
"The Chaos Emeralds? But why he gave me a map full of clues? Whoever gave me this, he was definitely trying to find it... But why he gave it to me?" Jose said as he opened the door and got inside the car. Once there, he starts it up and drives the streets. He then opens up a space bridge and gets inside the portal.
The portal got him inside the garage of his house. He gets off of his car as he was finally in his home on the in-between of both San Ricardo and San Lorenzo. Once there, he sat on a personal desk and fires up his computer to investigate. He was typing like crazy as his eyes moved around looking to know a lot about the Chaos Emeralds. He then looked at what it was and was surprised by the meaning of it.
"They are seven ancient emeralds and mystical relics tied to Master Emerald that possess powerful properties and abilities. Those that hold the Chaos Emeralds can use their powers for a variety of things, such as initiating a super transformation, powering machines, and warping time and space. Anyone who combines all seven Chaos Emeralds can control ultimate power. Even when not including their mystical powers, the Chaos Emeralds' monetary value and beauty make them prime targets of treasure hunters who seek to make a mint. Throughout history, the Chaos Emeralds have been the center of countless world-threatening conflicts and have been targeted by multiple factions on both Earth and beyond, who seek them for their near-limitless powers. In the hands of villains they have been used for doomsday weapons and schemes for world domination, and in the hands of heroes, they have been used to save the world. Over time, the Emeralds have been gathered multiple times, though they tend to scatter themselves after each usage and reset the hunt for them."
Jose was holding his hands to his cheeks like he was thinking. He was thinking about why would this figure would give him such information for free. was he playing mind games with him, or was he trying to inform him that a new danger is jumping ahead?
Jose was yawning by all this drama surrounding those mysterious emeralds.
"Targeted by factions? Who could want such power that they don't understand?" he said while reading some of the lines he has just read. Then, someone behind him has a hammer on his possession and he swings it on Jose's head as he falls down the ground. Jose breathes heavily as he was surprised by the one who hit him.
"You have any idea what time it is, Jose?"
"Puss! What are you doing here at this time of the day?" as Puss in Boots was the one who hit him and he looked like Jose doesn't have any idea what time it is.
"Jose. It is seven in the morning." Puss in Boots says.
"Fiddelfuf, Puss. It is two in the evening," Jose said, and Puss slaps himself in embarrassment.
"You do not know how time zone works, do you?" said Puss as Jose realize by what he meant and Puss was right. Jose's activity was at night when Puss was probably sleeping with Dulcinea. Jose must've returned home when Puss and Dulcinea were already back from their honeymoon.
"Oh. So how was the honeymoon?" Jose said as he was trying to act cool after his embarrassing revelation, which Puss waved his head in pure shame.
"Ay, Jose," said Puss as he was massaging his face after he saw what Jose did. He then focuses on the computer that Jose had and saw the website. He looked curious and saw what Jose is investigating.
"What is this, Jose?" the curious Puss said to his friend.
"Well, as I was leaving the stadium for the game, a strange figure about this size..." Jose said as he was measuring the size of the figure he encountered. Puss raised his eyebrows by it as if he was confused.
"As small as me?" Puss said.
"Yes. Anyways, he was on my car like it was spooking around. As soon as I said something, it vanished and left me this envelope which has several maps leading to clues about the Chaos Emeralds," said Jose. Puss was walking around d thinking about all of this, while he was looking to all options.
"Is he a friend, or a foe?" Puss says as he wanted to fully understand this situation.
"I don't know Puss. Guess we have to find out by having a little adventure?" Jose says as he was suggesting his friend while the boh of them were looking at those Chaos Emeralds.
"We should all go and find them!" A white cat in her beautiful white and purple lilac dress said with such joy as both Puss in Boots and Jose screamed because they were surprised and scared by the cat. They hold their hearts as it was beating fast and looked around, and saw the cat smiling and laughing by their overexaggerated reaction.
"Dulcinea?" both Jose and Puss said as they looked at Dulcinea, who was looking at the information of the Chaos Emeralds as she closes her eyes and uses her sixth sense to see what lies within his mystery.
"I sense that someone is going after them to destroy the world," she stated.
"Is it from another timeline or another dimension?" Jose asked as he and Puss looked at Dulcinea, concerned by the potential dangers that may lie ahead for them.
"No. Is from here, in our world. I also sense that whoever gave you this envelope Jose, is an ally," Dulcinea says.
"How do you know?" Jose asks.
"I trust her words, Jose. As strange as this envelope figure is," Puss says as he smiles at Jose, giving him his full support for his white cat lady. Jose smiles back as he agrees with Puss.
"The maps, are from far away. Is like is from several parts of the planet, including some of my side of this world and some from your side of the world, Jose and Puss."
Dulcinea finalizes her statement as she opens her eyes. Her friends were curious by all of the words she said. Then, Puss had an idea.
"I have an idea," he says.
"That's a new one," Jose says as he was joking about it and Puss punches softly his right leg like a compliment and laughs.
"What is it, Puss?" Dulcinea said as she clinches her paws and holds them down to her usual stance as she was all ears listening to Puss' idea.
"Well, my friends, my idea is this. We reform the Catvengers." Puss in Boots says.
"Reform?" Both Jose and Dulcinea said as they were curious and intrigued by Puss' words. Puss happily giggles by his idea.
"Si. We can get Kitty, you, Jose, myself, and J..."
"NOT JACK!" Jose and Dulcinea shouted and madly interrupted Puss because they did not wanted him to bring Jack Sprat for the ride, which Puss put on a grumpy face.
"Fine! We will not bring Jack. But we must get to San Ricardo to get Kitty," says Puss, while Dulcinea and Jose agreed. Jose quickly goes to his room to get changed, as Dulcinea simply closes her eye and crosses her arms to her chest to uses her magical transformation for her tulpa suit. Puss walks towards her as he already got his hat and sword.
"Are you feeling great to go out?" says Puss, putting on a smiling concerned face as he helps Dulcinea with adjusting her suit.
"Yes, Puss. I am feeling ready to go and have a great adventure," Dulcinea says as she was smiling out of joy. Puss then spins her to his face and, as she was smiling, they kiss each other on their lips.
"Hehe. I enjoyed our honeymoon, Puss." Dulcinea says.
"Me too," he says, smiling at her. Then, Jose walks by the stairs as both Puss and Dulcinea were surprised by his clothing. Jose was wearing brown jeans, with a brown jacket covered with a cream jersey, had a gun and a large brown rope onto his belt, a brown hat, and some brown boots to come along with his sword on his backpack.
"Eh. What are you wearing, Jose?" Puss says as he has no idea what Jose is wearing.
"You can call me... Josiana Jones!" Jose shouts in pride as he tips his hat like an adventurer, along with some adventuring song playing in the background, which Puss and Dulcinea were confused. Jose then gets past the stairs as he was humming in joy.
"What? If bad thoughts have filled your head, just hum a happy tune, instead. Let's get to our horses," says Jose as Puss and Dulcinea were beyond confused and put on their confusingly unbelievable loom on their faces. Especially Dulcinea, after Jose rhymed her own wisdom.
"O...kay?" they both said as they only walked to their ranch to get the horses.
Jose already was there as he sits on top of his trusted horse, Rocky. Puss and Dulcinea then join Jose as they get on their horses, Babieca and Sweetness.
"So, ready for this non-interdimensional adventure?" says Jose as he was excited about this adventure. Dulcinea and Puss looked at him with full of eagerness.
"Okay, Jose. Do we have everything?" says Dulcinea.
"Let see. I got equipment, the envelope, the key, the map... wait, the map!" Jose smiles but his joyfulness goes away to a desperate emotion as he forgot the map.
"Oh, boy," says Puss as he was pleased and laughed by Jose's nervousness. He smiles as he takes out the map from his hat as Jose was relieved by it. Jose then realized that his thirst of adventure might have forgotten him about his preparations.
"Thanks, Puss," Jose says as Puss smiles and waved his head down, signaling that it was not a problem to help a friend. And Dulcinea smiles and was showing her puppy eyes by seeing the love and compassion Jose and Puss are showing.
"Let us go! Hyah!" says Puss as he begins the ride with Babieca, while Jose and Dulcinea smiles and joins Puss on the ride to meet Kitty in San Ricardo. But without them knowing, the black figure smiles in happiness as whoever it is was following them without being spotted with a brown and cream horse, like a silent vigilante.
As they ride towards the desert, Dulcinea sees the sun shining through them.
"Look, the sun," she says as she sees the beauty of the sun. Jose laughs in joy, same as Puss.
"Si. like a friend once said... says Jose as they travel through the other side of the world they once merged with Jose's, galloping in their horses, while Jose gives out a line, one that symbolizes the three incredible friend.
"The sun will shine on us again."
