Chapter 14: Will I Ever Heal?
The next day, Manny walked over to Frida's house before school started. When Manny rung the doorbell, Mrs. Suarez answered it.
"Good morning, Mrs. Suarez", said Manny. "I have 30 minutes before school starts. Can I see Frida for 10 minutes, please? I have something to give her."
"Sure, Manny. Frida just woke up", said Mrs. Suarez, smiling.
"Thanks!", said Manny as he walked up the stairs.
When Manny approached Frida's bedroom, Frida was eating breakfast.
"Hey, Frida", said Manny.
"Manny!", said Frida.
"How're you feeling?", asked Manny.
"I'm still in pain", said Frida as she looked down.
"I have something for you", said Manny as he handed a small box to Frida.
Frida opened the box. She gasped. "Oh, Manny! It's beautiful!", said Frida as she held a silver, chain bracelet with three charms. One charm was an eighth note with sparkling light pink diamonds. The second charm was a blue enamel electric guitar. And the last charm was a purple microphone with six small diamonds on the handle.
"Yeah, Alexis suggested a charm bracelet for a gift for you. I chose something that wasn't too girly, but reflects your personality at the same time", said Manny.
"Manny, you didn't have to do this", said Frida.
"Well, I wanted to, for you", said Manny, smiling.
"This is the best gift ever! Thanks, Manny", said Frida as she hugged Manny, then let go.
"Well, I have 20 minutes to get to school. I'll see you later", said Manny as he kissed Frida on the forehead, then left.
"See you later, Manny", said Frida.
A few minutes later, at school, Manny was doodling during English. He looked to the right of his seat. He looked at Frida's empty seat. Manny sighed sadly and continued drawing.
"Manny, have you seen Frida?", asked Mrs. Lupita.
"She got injured and she's currently recovering. But she won't be fully healed for a week", said Manny
"All right then. Carry on", said Mrs. Lupita. Then she walked away.
At lunch, Manny sat alone. Until Alexis sat down next to him.
"Hey, you", said Alexis.
"Hey yourself", said Manny dejectedly.
"What's wrong?", asked Alexis.
"I'm worried for Frida. When will she get better? I hope she does get better", said Manny.
"She will get better! I'm sure of it!", said Alexis.
"Thanks, Alexis", said Manny smiling.
Then the moment got interrupted when the Senor Siniestro returned.
"Ha ha ha ha! Prepare to meet your DOOM!"
Siniestro began chasing, blasting, and imprisoning children. Manny transformed into El Tigre.
"All right. Let's get this over with", said El Tigre.
Siniestro blasted Manny and then caged him.
"Manny!", exclaimed Alexis. She transformed into Caballero De Platina and started sprinting towards Siniestro. Siniestro dodged her every attack as students were running for their lives.
Back at the Suarez house, Frida looked out the window.
"Manny and Alexis are in trouble! How did I get myself into this mess?", Frida asked herself.
Frida walked (on her crutches) to her desk. She saw her charm bracelet that Manny gave her earlier. Frida smiled and put it on. It sparkled as Frida looked at it.
"I know what I have to do", said Frida. Then she looked at her feet. "Right after I teach myself how to walk".
Frida put her crutches on the floor, then she too dropped to the floor.
"Just…..one….step…PLEASE!", said Frida as she strained. Her legs wobbled as she tried to stand, but fell back down.
"I'll try again later. But first….", said Frida as she got some pillows and bunched them under her blanket.
"Perfect!", said Frida as she transformed into La Electrica and opened the window. She then stepped out and climbed down then used her crutches as she limped to school.
Meanwhile, Siniestro had 136 students trapped and imprisoned, 31 as slaves, and had El Tigre and Caballero De Platina chained up.
"Ha! No one can save you now!", said Siniestro.
"Think again, moron!", said La Electrica. She then limped over to Siniestro.
"Frida! What are you doing?! You're too weak to fight!", said Manny.
"I may be, but faith will help me fight!", said Frida as she held up her charm bracelet.
"The bracelet", whispered Manny. He smiled.
La Electrica zapped the chains off El Tigre and Caballero de Platina.
"Ok team! I'll take the middle and zap him while Manny takes the left and Alexis takes the right", said Frida.
Manny sliced the arms off Siniestro while Alexis stabbed her sword into his fuse box, causing him to malfunction. Frida then used her guitar and zapped a lightning bolt at Siniestro, causing him to shoot at the sky and be blown away until he was out of view.
Alexis freed all the imprisoned students while Manny took Frida home. When they arrived at the Suarez house, Manny put Frida back in bed.
"Frida, you could've been pulverized out there!", said Manny.
"I'm sorry, Manny. You and Alexis were in trouble and I had to rescue you two!", said Frida.
"I understand, but in the future, try to be more careful, okay?", asked Manny.
"Okay", said Frida.
Manny smiled. He then took off his jacket.
"Here, I want you to have this, so it'll look like I'm here with you", said Manny.
"Thanks, Manny", said Frida as she put it on.
Manny and Frida kissed again. "Okay, I have to go now. See you tomorrow", said Manny.
"You too", said Frida. She then looked at Manny's jacket and smiled.
