Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Despicable Me characters or any of the Carmen Sandiego characters they are all owned by their respective owners, this is simply an idea of mine that I had after watching the film a few days ago.
Note: This takes place two years after the events of the "Despicable Me" film. Placing Margo at fourteen, Edith at 12, and Agnes at maybe six.
Gru was upset…not just because his daughters were arguing upstairs again, or because he had yet to eat breakfast but because of the newest breaking news.
"The world is in shock to discover that Paris, France has been stolen during the night!" The news anchor announced cutting to a shot of a gigantic hole where the city would've been. It was as if someone had cut city out of the ground and airlifted it away. "No one knows who has done this at this time, the suspects include all the worlds major villains but none have come forward at this time to take credit for this theft, and all the experts are baffled and unsure how such a large and highly improbable theft could have occurred. But everyone is saying that whoever did this is the true criminal mastermind of the century."
Gru let out a frustrated growl and turned off the tv. Whoever this new villain was they were cramping his style, he hadn't pulled off anything big in awhile what with being a full time single parent. And while he loved his little kittens with all his heart and couldn't be happier; it was rather difficult to raise three children on his own(with some help from the Minions) while trying to pull off the worlds greatest heists and crimes.
He hadn't pulled off any big crimes in almost a year, he had stolen the George Washington head off of Mount Rushmore and held it for ransom for over three million dollars. Which the state of South Dakota paid and with which he was able to get The Bank of Evil off his back for a few more years.
But now with this new villain committing bigger and absolutely mind boggling crimes it looked like it might be a repeat of what had happened a couple years ago with Vector. He sighed and put his head in his hands. The stakes were higher now that he was a father, not only would he be in danger of losing his home and having to work a boring regular nine to five job like all the other non-villains, there was also a chance of him losing his girls to Social Services.
"Dad!" Agnes said running into the kitchen and attaching herself to his leg. "Margo's still in the bathroom and I really have to go potty!"
"Alright. Alright." Gru said getting up and walked up the stairs Agnes still attached to his knee to the bathroom door. He knocked on the door. "Margo, iz everyzing alright in zhere?"
"Yeah…I'm just getting ready for school." Margo shouted through the door.
"Eet iz taking a long time, you're usually ready by now." Gru said.
"No! No, I'm fine I'll be out in a minute." Margo threw open the door not expecting her father to be there.
"Somezing iz different about you…." He said looking closely at Margo, he leaned in close till they were almost nose to nose. That's when he spotted it. "Vhat did you put on your face?" He asked somewhat horrified that his Margo was wearing cosmetics. "No, no you are to young to be wearing zhis. Go, go back into ze bathroom and vash eet off!"
"But Dad, I'm fourteen. Nearly fifteen and besides I'm not wearing that much makeup just some mascara and eyeliner. All the other girls at school cake it on."
"All the more reason for you not to vear any, soon you'll be copying them and you'll look like a clown!"
"But-" Margo started.
"No!" Gru insisted. "You're to young to be doing things like zhis, now go vash eet off before you're late for school." Margo went back into the bathroom in a huff and quickly washed it off then quickly stomped down stairs.
"Thank you!" Agnes said letting go of Grus leg and running into the bathroom.
Gru let out a sigh, Margo had become a bit of a handful after going into high school. She had started to want to wear clothes that he did not think were appropriate because they showed to much flesh, she started hanging out more and more with her new friends, and recently he had over heard a phone conversation with one of her friends about how "hot" she thought one of the boys in her class was. Gru had made a note to find out who this boy was and make sure said boy would treat his daughter with respect.
Down stairs Margo was eating her breakfast next to Edith in silence.
"If you want I could give you a ride…" Gru started.
"No dad please don't! I'm weird enough as is without the other kids teasing me about my dads car."
"Kids are teasing you, vhat are zheir names?" Gru asked seriously. He had since "taken care of" several playground bullies and mean girls his daughters had encountered. And while nothing physical had happened they knew damn well to never mess with his little kittens again.
"Oh God Dad no!" Margo said even more horrified than before. "Please I just want everyone to think that I'm normal and that my dad is normal."
"Well he's not normal…he's awesome!" Edith said through a mouth full of cereal. Gru smiled glad at least he had two of his daughters who were still happy with him.
Margo groaned and quickly finished her cereal. "I have to go now, bye Dad" She said jumping out of her seat and leaving through the back door.
Gru thought about how fast, too fast in his opinion, Margo was growing up and his mood went from bad to worse when he realized his daughers weren't always going to be his little kittens.
