First Beverly Hills Chihuahua story! I'm so excited. This idea came out of the blue, as many of my ideas have been lately, and I just wanted to really do it. This takes place during the second movie. I was just inspired by all the stories Papi told his pups so I decided to make one of my own for him to tell them.
I own nothing. The movie and all its content belong to Disney. I don't own the cover image either.
Enjoy the story!
"Alright my little puppies. All little Chihuahuas, time go to bed now," a light brown colored Chihuahua called out. His white chest was puffed out a bit to assert his dominance as the father to the five little puppies beginning to climb up into their bed. Two light brown, two black and white and one brown and white puppies crawled onto their pillows.
"Papi Jr. Lala. Rosa. Ali. Pep. Sleep well my little ones." Papi said before be turned to go. He was stopped though by the call of one of his youngest.
"Wait, daddy. Could you please tell us a story." Rosa asked. She had light brown fur and a light, oval-shaped marking on her forehead. Her sisters and brother also began asking for one.
"Yeah!" "Please daddy." "We'll go to sleep right after." "Just one story, daddy." The continued begging finally brought the older dog to his knees with a sigh.
"Alright, alright. Settle down," he said. Then he suddenly gained a grin on his face. "I happen to know a wonderful story. A wonderful and true story too."
"Is it an action story, dad," asked his son. Papi Jr. had both of his father and mother's colors on him, brown and white.
"Does it have romance in it daddy," said another, Ali, whose fur was black and white.
"No. No kissy, goo-goo stuff, sis," he protested.
"Are adventures in it, daddy," asked Lala. She was light brown, just like her father.
"Tell us daddy. Please tell us." Pep begged, her tail wagging. She was black and white, just like her sister Ali.
"Whoa there, kids. First off, it is an action story, with romance and adventure in it as well. And I'll only tell you if you promise not to interrupt when I'm telling it. Deal?"
"Deal," all five of the chorused back. He smiled and nodded.
"Alrighty then. Ahem, this is the true story of a dog, a mighty Chihuahua, who went on a fantastic journey, full of adventure, danger and friendship, all to save the one he loved. This, my puppies, is the story of the Big-Hearted Chihuahua."
Years ago, there once lived a princess. Her fur was the color of pure snow, her eyes as black as the most beautiful black diamonds, her ears a perfect, pearly pink. Her beauty was well know throughout the land. She was surrounded by all that she could wish for. Jewels, dresses, three meals a day, spa days, mani-pedi's. Everything a dog could wish her. But there was still one thing that she did not have.
Someone to love and share everything she had with him.
"Uh, dad." Papi Jr. interrupted. His dad sighed and looked at his son.
"Yes, what is it son?"
"Um, is there going to be any kissing, yucky romance scenes in your story?" Papi sighed and was about to answer, but Pep beat him to it.
"Of course silly. If there's a princess, then there has to a prince to save her and marry her so they live happily ever after," she replied.
"Eww. Dad, is that really going to happen in the story," Papi Jr. asked.
"Well, tell you what. I'll cancel out the kissy, yucky romance scenes, but only if you stay quiet like you promises. Got it?"
"Got it, daddy."
"Alright then."
There was also a strong Chihuahua, who everyday would wake up to see his princess, in all her splendor and glory. He was in love with her, but how could she love him? He was a worker, a gardener, working in the garden and field to make the outside look nice. How could he ever amount to the shimmering, lovely dog who he could only gaze on from afar? But he knew that deep under his dirt-covered fur was a big heart that beat in love for her. He knew that one day, one day he would prove himself to her and she would love him back.
That day came sooner than expected, to his surprise.
One day, as the princess was riding in her carriage, thieves came out and stole her away. The others tried to come after her, but it was too late. She was already gone. News of her kidnapping soon reached the castle. When it reached the strong, gardener Chihuahua, he was devastated. His one true love had been taken.
A search party was immediately assembled, he eagerly joined them. He vowed that he would find his love and bring her home.
"And then what happened, daddy?" Lala asked.
"I can't tell you if you don't keep your mouths such," he replied, giving a small glare at his puppies, who immediately quieted back down.
Meanwhile, the thieves had taken the princess to the dark castle and locked her in the dungeon. While she was their, bemoaning her fate, she met someone. A valiant wolf with a mysterious past. He warned her of the dangers she was now in. All of a sudden then, she was taken out of her cage and was put before the keeper of the castle himself. The dark lord of the land. The grotesque, fearsome, Chupacabra.
He wished to make the princess his queen, if she would only love him back. She outright refused him. The dark lord Chupacabra grew angry, so she had her stripped of most of her fineries and ordered her to death. Luckily for her, the valiant wolf swooped in last second and helped her escape. Now lost, afraid and confused in the new, strange place she was in, she asked the the wolf to help her get back. He agreed, but only until she could get safely home.
The two managed to escape, but soon found themselves lost in a unknown land. On the way, the princess met to small-time thieves, not like the ones that had stolen her, but still very crafty. They managed to trick her into giving up her diamond-studded necklace, one of the last things that could tell her apart from anyone else. When the wolf came back, the two were long gone, but he was angry at the princess for lessening her chances of getting home quicker. For now, they would have to travel by foot, something the princess wasn't accustomed to, since she had been pampered all of her life. But still she longed for hope and agreed to let him escort her till they got there.
They kept going, unaware that the Chupacabra was coming after them, determined to bring the princess back and make her his bride. The two travelers kept going until they made it to a magic train that would carry them across the endless desert and bring them home. The train neatly left without them but they managed to get on board before it could leave and not return for several days.
Meanwhile, the group was still looking for the princess. On the way, the group enlisted the help of two street rats, formerly thrown into the same dungeon as the princess. He promised to help them out if they would help them find his love. They agreed and joined, though eventually on the way, they split of and went on to more happier lives, thanks to the journey.
As for the princes and the wolf, mean men searched through the train and the two had to jump off to avoid being caught. Now lost in the desert, they kept walking on foot until they met a trio of the fiercest, angriest creatures either had ever seen beside Chupacabra himself, the mighty rock lions.
"Rock lions? Daddy, you're making that up," Ali said. The other puppies were giggling.
"I'm telling you, I am not. They were very real, ask the princess and she'll confirm it," Papi replied. His ears perked up at the sound of the grandfather clock striking nine down the hall, just outside the room.
"Whoa, it is way past your bedtime. I'm gonna have to postpone the story until tomorrow, " he said and hopped the bed and started walking away, much to his puppies disappointment.
"No, daddy," Lala said.
"Please finish. We won't interrupt anymore, we promise," Pep begged.
"We want to hear the rest of the story. Does the wolf fight the rock lions? Does the princess get back?" Papi Jr. asked.
"Does the big hearted chihuahua fight the Chupacabra and win the princess's heart and they live happily ever after?" Rosa asked.
"Sorry puppies. You'll just have to wait till tomorrow to find out. Now goodnight." Papi replied and shut the door, but left a bit of it still open to let the hallway light in so the puppies could still see. The five replied "goodnight" and fell asleep, imagining how the story might finish tomorrow night.
Decided to split it into two parts. Hope you enjoyed reading the first chapter. Just in case you didn't figure out who everyone was: princess=Chloe, gardener/worker=Papi, Chupacabra=El Diablo and the wolf=Delgado. Please review, tell me how you thought this went and I'll see you next time. Sincerely, v.t.7
