El Tigre
No more Miracles.
Alright, so this is my first Story about something that ISN'T about Naruto. Haha and that is a slight challenge for me! And also, it is in third person! So there won't be any P.O.V's, and my grammar will be greatly improved! So no short cuts! At least not much... Eheheh. I swear I love this El' Tigre pairing! Alright, so this is 'No More Miracles', an El Tigre Fan fiction. Pairing I am using is Frida Suarez and Manny Rivera, (who is also El' Tigre.) You know, if you've never seen this show, you should really watch it, to really get my fan fic. Eheh.
Disclaimer: I do not own El Tigre. (I never said this with the Naruto ones. I'm sorry. I don't own Naruto either. xD) All the Characters I will be using For this Story are owned by Sandra Equihua & Jorge R. Gutierrez.
This means thinking
This means inner feelings
This means sounds. (Ex. Clack! Tick!)
This just adds intense to the word. (Ex. All she wanted was him.)
This is me talking. :D
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo means changing the setting. (Ex. Next Paragraph) or third person point of view.
No More Miracles.

She shook her head, trying to ease her thoughts.
Of course I'm not afraid! I'm Frida Suarez for crying out loud! She thought to herself angrily.
She wasn't about to convince herself that she was afraid! That was the LAST thing she wanted to admit! But she had to admit, that she was at least a little nervous. She sighed and threw her bag over her shoulder, looking at the ground.
"Is something wrong?" Manny asked, sensing that Frida wasn't acting like herself. She closed her eyes, then, opened them to face the curly haired male, forcing a smile to spread across her face.
"I'm just fine! Por que?"
"I don't know. You just don't seem like yourself, and…"
"There you go with your worrying again, Manny!"
Analyzing the smile on her face, Manny backed down, questioning no further. If Frida said she was fine, then she must be fine! Why did he have to worry so much?
"Yeah, haha, you're probably right!" He replied, chuckling softly. "Man, I have got to stop worrying so much!"
"Haha…Yeah…"
Frida bit her bottom lip, feeling her tan cheeks turn crimson.
Aw Damn!
She turned her head slightly to the left, trying to hide her face. She soon felt Manny's eyes gaze in her direction.
Oh no…!
"What…are you doing?" the dark brown eyed boy asked cautiously, observing the sky-blue haired girls' movements carefully. He caught her biting her lip, facing the other direction, bobbing her head as if there was something in her hair. Her goggles shifted back and forth, as she tried to desperately try to hide her embarrassing facial expression.
Why do girls always bite their lips? Manny asked himself, tightening his grip on Frida's books that he offered to carry. Do they taste good or something?
A gust of wind settled over the city, briefly cooling the two teens down for a minute or two. Fortunately, that was enough time for Frida to toughen her act and get rid of her blush, her cheeks turning fleshy tan again.
"Gracias, Gracias! Te amo mucho!" She whispered to herself quietly, thanking God for that gust of random wind that allowed her hair to cover her face, even for a quick second. This was Miracle City, after all.
"Frida…?"
She quickly turned her head, facing Manny once again.
"Uh, Y-Yes?"
"I asked you what you were uh…doing, a few minutes ago…"
Damn it!
She was so busy trying to shield herself from embarrassment, that she was acting like a total idiot without even knowing that she was embarrassing herself anyway! And just when she thought she had a miracle…
"What? Im fine! I just needed to fix my hair…I cant arrive at my own party with my hair all messed up, can I?"
The two teens laughed at the small joke, as Manny responded with a no, chuckling again. The laughter soon died again, letting another awkward silence fall upon them…again.
CHHHHSSSH!
Manny's eyebrow raised as he asked himself if he just heard something. If he didn't, he assumed he had finally cracked, and needed to be placed in the looney bin, with all the other crazy people in Miracle City.
"Frida, please tell me you just heard that."
Frida scratched the back of her head, then slid her goggles back.
"Did it sound like a rustling or something?"
"Yeah! I—"
CHHHHHSSSSH!
"Hey! There it is again!"
"Yeah, I heard it too!"
The two stopped walking, looking around in all directions. Where was that noise coming from…?
CCCCHHHHHHHSSSH!
They both gasped, and Frida slowly stepped behind Manny, sinking her body behind his, peeking her head from behind his shoulder, sliding her arms around his waist.
"M-Manny…I think i-it came c-closer!" She whispered, starting to quiver in fear.
Though Manny was used to the villains following them, they both notice and Frida, hiding behind him for protection, he had this weird feeling when she would wrap her arms around his waist, telling him they should leave, though he usually didn't listen and changes into El Tigre anyway, standing his ground and fighting. He liked that feeling, but he didn't know why.
"Yeah, I know," Manny mumbled, setting down the books that were in his hands, holding his arms out protectively of Frida.
CHHHHHHSHHH!
"M-Manny!"
He couldn't help but blush slightly, as he heard the female hiding behind him cry out his name.
It was so innocent, so pure…
He felt a sudden disturbance arise in the deep depths of his pants. He almost groaned outloud from the immediate shock of pain that surged through his body.
Damn it!
He squeezed his eyes tightly shut, trying to get the stiffness to soften. Why would her voice awaken his inner thoughts? It wasn't right to think of her… that way. Only close friends. That was it. Maybe it was just the tone in her voice. Yes, that has got to be it. Manny Rivera does not fall for his best friend.
Never.
CHHHHHHHHHHHHSH!
Frida pointed to the left of the sidewalk.
"It's coming from over there! Look!"
They both spotted two raggedy looking donkey ears.
"Hey! I think it's a wild donkey!" Manny exclaimed, as Frida loosened her grip on his shoulder. All of a sudden…
"Allllbino Buriiiito!
A small brown teen, with small but noticeable buck teeth, purple square rimmed glasses, wearing a badly sewn donkey suit, and a half stitched yellow cape, which trailed out behind. Frida groaned loudly, as Manny sighed and shook his head.
"Ugh…Davi?"
"Davi!"
Davi smiled broadly and nodded as if he hasn't missed anything. Frida pouted and crossed her arms, her wrist cuffs clanging together. Of all the people in the world, why was it Davi? And why didn't he come later when they weren't…together?!
They being her and…Manny.
Davi, or 'Albino Burrito', (his own awkward super 'hero') has been Manny's number one fan since seventh grade. Though he was extremely annoying, and appeared at the most awkward moments. Manny knew his heart was in the right place, and that all Davi thought that Manny was the awesome superhero, and wanted to be just like him. He had respect forDavi, since he obviously looked up at him, and marveled him. But Frida didn't exactly feel the same…
"Uh…Davi…what are you doing?" Manny asked, smiling abit, slightly embarrassed.
"What does it look like Im doing?! Im making my heroic entry…"
"No, no, I meant, what are you doing here?""Oh! I've been following you two!"
Shocked, Frida pushed herself in front of Manny, blushing angrily.
"Davi! You have not right to be stalking people, like you're not enough of a creeper already!"
Davi rubbed his chin, then smirked wildly.
Oh, Im sorry! Did I ruin your…date?"
Frida clenched her fists, and blushed even more. Manny choked on his saliva, doubling over, coughing hard.
"DAVI!!" The blue and curly haired teens shrieked in embarrassment.
"Wh-what the hell are you talking about?!" Frida cried, grinding her teeth. Manny tried a different approach, trying to not be as aggressive as Frida was.
"Davi…c'mon, me and Frida are just friends, right Frida?"
"Frida unclenched her fists, and sighed heavily. As much as she didn't want to admit it, she put her defensive stance down, and nodded with gloom.
"Y-yeah…just friends…"
Totally unconvinced about the being 'Just Friends', Davi decided to change the subject.
"I was only following you because I want to ask Frida if I can come to the totally awesome party tonight!"
"No!" Frida almost screamed. "Davi, you are SO not coming to my party!"
She didn't want to be as harsh as she was, or cruel, but she also didn't want anything to ruin this party; and usually, Davi is the one that usually causes trouble, trying to be 'Albino Burrito'. When he was going to give that up, no one knows.
"Aw, But why!? I've never gone to a real fiesta before! This is gonna be the biggest end of the year parties ever, and I wanna be there to enjoy it!"
"No!"
"Aw, but-"
"No!"
"Maybe just for a little while—"
"Nope!"
"Please?"
"NO!"
Davi needed to find a new tactic. Right now, he wasn't getting anywhere with his begging and pleading.
"Fine, then I wont stop following you two until I am allowed to attend!"
"How many times am I going to have to tell you, Davi?! N-O! No means no!"
Having quite enough of being rejected, Davi turned around and started to slowly walk away.
"Fine… I guess I'll just head on home…did I ever mention that the police station is on my way home?"
Frida stopped talking, as her and Manny listened intently. Was Davi calling a bluff…? He must be, he wouldn't be stupid enough to rat the both of them out…would he?
"I'll just…stop by the police station, and give Chief Suarez a good reason to stay home from his seminar tonight. Won't that be fun?!"
Frida narrowed her eyes dangerously.
"You…you wouldn't dare…"
"Oh, but I would. And how would Mr. Rivera react to his son going to this…wild fiesta?
Manny held up his hands in defense.
"Hey man, I'm not the one throwing the party!"
"MANNY!"
"What? It's true!"
Davi smiled.
"So, what'll it be?" he asked, with that smile on his face. "I get to come to the party, or there will BE no party!"
Frida turned back around to Manny, with pleading eyes, desperately telling him to do something. But he was fresh out of ideas, and wasn't sure on what to do…except for one thing.
"Ugh...Fine, Davi. You can come to the party."
"MANNY!"
"Sorry Frida! But I didn't know Davi was so good at black mailing!"
"Perfect! This is gonna be SO much fun! But first, I must go re-stuff my atomic piñata!"
Davi turned on his heels and added, "I'll let you two get back to your date!"
"DAVI!" the two teens cried out, desperately trying to stop him from seeing them as a couple. It was already embarrassing enough, Davi didn't need to make it worse!
"Oh, riiiiight, your 'it's not a date' date. Gotcha! Bye!" he dashed off before either Frida or Manny could respond. After standing there for a few seconds, absorbing the events of what just happened, Manny and Frida continued their walk to Frida's house, to drop off her belongings.
"Im sorry, Frida!" Manny apologized, readjusting her books in his arms again. "It was either he came to the party, or there wouldn't of been a party!"
Frida patted his shoulder.
"Its okay, dude. I didn't know dorky Davi could be such an evil genius! I was just as freaked out as you."
"He's probably been planning this from the very beginning, knowing you'd say 'no' if he asked politely."
"Great, another good reason to enforce that Davi is a total creeper. "
"But you must admit, that was a well thought out plan to have worked on us! Im pretty impressed!"
Frida was impressed herself. She didn't know Davi had it in him. He was still a creeper, but a smart one, nonetheless.
After a few short minutes of discussing how Davi was an evil genius, they soon arrived to the Suarez Residence, that two story house with wired gates, and was totally decked out in a police theme; blue, red, and white. Frida made it perfectly clear that she wasn't going to become and obsessed police officer like her family. It would get boring after a while, and who wants a boring job?
She turned to Manny, extending her arms to retrieve her books.
"Do you want me to help you take your stuff in?" Manny asked, giving back her things.
"Wh-what? NO!"
She quickly corrected her tone.
"-ahem-…N-no, Manny, It's okay. I'll be right out. And besides, I think it's my turn to feed the dogs."
She almost blushed as she saw his devilishly charming smile curve on his lips.
"Alright, I'll be waiting for you right here. Tell Churro I say 'hi'!"
Frida smiled and nodded, grabbing her keys from her suspender pocket, sliding it into the key hole, turning it to the left. For some reason, it wasn't unlocking.
"Damn it…" She mumbled under her breath. "Just like the stupid lockers at school…"
She stood there a few more minutes, fumbling with the lock. Manny watched, raising his left eyebrow.
"Uh, need some help?"
As soon as she opened her mouth, she heard a click, and her pale white door cracked open. She sighed in relief, thanking God once again, for giving her a miracle.
Uh, n-no! It's okay! I got it!" she called back, sheepishly.
She smiled and gave a small wave, back stepping into her house, then slammed the door shut. She leaned against the door, hugging her books against her chest.
"Man…" She whispered to herself. "What a day…"
Suddenly, a blue of brown, black, and ran came rushing towards her, then attacked in a ninstant, hurling her to the ground.
The family pets, German Sheperds, Tazor and Shotgun, (both named after dangerous police weapons, which Frida thought was typical for her family) pounced upon her, licking her face and wagging their tails happily, glad that she was home.
Frida was used both of her hands and stroked both of the canines' heads.
"Aw, hey you guys!" She cooed nuzzling into Tazor. She loved dogs, that Frida.
"Where's my little runt?"
"Yip, Yip!"
The smaller, newer dog, a puppy that she bought with her own money two to three months ago, scampered down the hallway, slipping and sliding on the hardwood floor.
"Churro!" Frida squealed, opening her arms. "Come to mommy!"
Of course Frida would name her "Baby" after her favorite food! It was either that, or Manny, and after thinking of a handful of excuses of why she named her that if Manny happened to ask why, she just decided if she named her puppy after a food, that she obviously loved, then no question would be asked, and no awkward silences will be had.
Churro leaped into Frida's arms, making cute yip sounds, slobbering her face with wet, sloppy, sticky kisses.
"That's a good girl!" Mommy loves you so much!" Frida kissed the puppy's head, backing herself against the door, standing back up. Yup, the usual greeting you get when you come to the Suarez house; getting attacked by two grown German Sheps and a restless puppy. She was used to it. Dogs show love too!
She grabbed her stuff and collected her books; briefly removing her boots, sliding across the floor in her knew socks. Heading into the kitchen, which was connected to the basement, the backyard, living room, dining room, and stairs leading to the bedrooms, she noticed her older twin sister, Anita and Nikita, sitting on the couch, watching one of those stupid soap operas that no one watches anymore. She tried to sneak by, but amazingly, they sang in unison with their shrill voices:
"Frida!"
