well, here's my newest chapter of my first ever crossover fanfiction which doubles as a parody of the Disney Channel original classic from 1993, 'Hocus Pocus'. hey, I was born that year. I was around seven months of age when the film first aired on Disney Channel. I can't believe that they've made a sequel to it on Disney+ just this year. anyway, this chapter is all about a time of which Raimundo and his kid sister, Amara's, own trick-or-treating time is interrupted by none other than the same thugs into which the elder brother among the duo of siblings had run just on his way home in chapter three.

this fifth chapter of my 'Hocus Pocus' parody which is also my first ever crossover fanfiction is a decent nine-hundred-eight words of storyline long. there are no comments from yours truly disguised as author's notes in this chapter. this fifth chapter once again does not include the explanation towards the chapter's storyline up above, this headnote, right here, that explains the length of words in this very chapter, or the disclaimer which makes up the following paragraph after this headnote, right her.

disclamation: I don't own the 'Fruits Basket Another' manga series, except on paperback, that is. all rights for 'Fruits Basket' and its sequel series are due solely to Natsuki Takaya-sensei. I also don't own 'Xiaolin Showdown' in any way, shape, or form. all rights for that series and its beyond lousy reboot, 'Xiaolin Chronicles', are reserved solely for Christy Hui. I know, like the Fountain of Hui shen gong wu. if I, myself, were a gambler, I'd wager that she named that particular shen gong wu for herself. I also don't own the Halloween film 'Hocus Pocus' or its new sequel 'Hocus Pocus 2'. all ownership rights for the original are reserved for Disney Channel while the ownership rights for the sequel are reserved for Disney+.


Unfortunately for Raimundo, however, Halloween night had only just begun at the time. He and Amara were running around the neighborhood, trick-or-treating up a perfect storm of candy collecting. All the while, Raimundo was completely miserable taking his kid sister around with her trick-or-treating.

Amara Pedrosa: Lighten up, Mundo!

Raimundo Pedrosa: Can we go home, now?

Amara Pedrosa: No!

It was just at that moment that Raimundo noticed some punks at the gates of the house at which he and Amara were at the time. Raimundo immediately recognized the thugs who were wrecking the children's Halloween. It was none other than Jack Spicer and his gang of scumbags.

Raimundo Pedrosa: Let's just go this way.

But Amara was just not willing to take any of this Jack Spicer and his gang of punks' crap from even just one of them.

Raimundo Pedrosa: Amara.

Raimundo was ready to tell his sister to follow him instead, but Amara just continued to walk towards the thugs like they were not as dangerous as they acted.

Tubbimura: Ding, ding!

Vlad: Ding, ding!

Jack Spicer: Stop and pay the toll, kid!

Ashley/Katnappe: Ten chocolate bars! No licorice or candy corn!

Jack Spicer: Dump out your sack, kid!

Amara Pedrosa: Drop dead, idiot.

Tubbimura: Squirt, how would care to be hung over that telephone pole?

Amara Pedrosa: I'd like to see even one of you losers try because it just so happens that I've got my big brother with me. Mundo!

Jack Spicer and his gang of street thugs then made fun of Raimundo for what he was doing with his little sister, Amara.

Jack Spicer: Look, babe! It's Rio!

Ashley/Katnappe: So, Rio, you're doing a little trick-or-treating, I see?

Raimundo Pedrosa: I'm just taking my kid sister around, ya crackheads.

Ashley/Katnappe: Hmm, that is mighty nice of you and all.

It may have sounded like a compliment, but Raimundo knew that the teenage Catwoman wannabe was actually making fun of him for being his kid sister's escort while she trick-or-treated. Then, Katnappe's so-called boyfriend poked fun at Raimundo's disguise.

Jack Spicer: Whoa! Lovin' the costume, Rio, but uh, what exactly are ya supposed to even be? A New Kid On The Rock?

Amara Pedrosa: For your information, he's a little leaguer.

Jack Spicer: Whoa! A little leaguer!

Raimundo managed to make his way past Jack and Ashley/Katnappe, but was not as lucky in getting past Tubbimura and Vlad. The muscular Russian stopped Raimundo with his foot while the overweight ninja did all the talking, or rather, all the demanding.

Tubbimura: Not so fast, Rio! Everybody pays our toll! Hai!

Amara Pedrosa: Stuff it, fat boy!

Tubbimura: Why you little_

Raimundo knew he would have had to do something about his sister's approach to these punks' collective attitude. He knew that Amara was right about them, but he also knew that the two of them known as Tubbimura and Vlad could easily beat him within an inch of his own life. He also had to protect Amara.

Raimundo Pedrosa: Hey, Tubbi, here.

Raimundo handed the overweight ninja his sister's freshest, most recently filled trick-or-treat bag.

Raimundo Pedrosa (continued): Pig out, why don't you? Literally!

Raimundo finally grabbed Amara and escorted her away from the thugs that stole from him just earlier that day.

Raimundo Pedrosa (continued): Come on, Amara. Let's go.

Jack and the other punks smiled at the pay toll Raimundo had given them.

Jack Spicer: Hey, Rio! Thanks for the shoes! They fit like a pair of gloves... for my feet!

Then, the gang of thugs began laughing up a storm before splitting Amara's candy bag.

Meanwhile on their way to a different part of the neighborhood, Amara was openly disappointed in Raimundo, the elder brother she up to whom she had looked her whole life long, for not standing up to the thugs like the tough guy he had always claimed to be back in Brazil. He was even skilled in the capoeira martial arts from back in their home country, and he was at least skilled at it enough to actually get the gang of punks away from his sister and the other trick-or-treaters for the rest of their lives.

Amara Pedrosa: You should've punched them upside the heads. You even have that very mastery in capoeira to have pulled it off, no problem.

Raimundo Pedrosa: The big guys would've killed me even if I did anything about 'em.

Amara Pedrosa: Well, at least then, you would've died like a man.

Raimundo then yelled at Amara as she turned around to face her elder brother.

Raimundo Pedrosa: You just humiliated me in front of half the guys at school! Just collect your candy and get the hey outta my life already, Amara!

Just when the resident of the house at which Raimundo's own little sister was trick-or-treating had finally answered the door for her, Amara finally got mad enough at her big brother for saying such unbrotherly things to her.

Amara Pedrosa: I wanna go home. Now!

Amara then went to into a hay bed at another house and lay down to just cry her eyes out because of what Raimundo, her own brother, of all people, had said to her.
