We now return to "Beautiful and Dangerous" as it now receives a brand-new update to pick up where we left off. The Good Guys confront the robber duo only to be charmed by their attractiveness spell. A police officer wore special glasses that prevented the spell from affecting him. Now the Good Guys are going to consult a roped stranger on how to scan the anti-charm glasses so they can stop Le Fifi and Senior Larry! Enjoy this chapter!


In a deserted alley, a hooded stranger is watching everything from a see-through portal. "Oh, just my luck THEY have to get into this!" He rants. "These simple thieves are my next in line of the perfect warriors of darkness. Though brief, I say the long-awaited test run on those two was perfect. I must rid of them of their independent minds and that silly grudge against me if I hope to have them as leaguers. I'll make those two appreciate my gift to them one way or another." He removes his hood, revealing himself to be a voodoo doctor wearing a hood underneath that looks like a cobra's head. "And this time, the Good Guys are NOT standing in my way."

In the car, Ms. Tarantula hooks an electronic scanner to a computer and activates it. "Computer? Analyze data we picked up from these strange glasses."

"Scanning unknown glasses." The computer answers and a few computer sounds are heard.

"I'm just asking, how often do you manage to find an object that could be of use to you when you're on a mission?" Mr. Snake asked.

"You got me there, Snake." Mr. Piranha answered. "I have absolutely no idea."

"Glasses identified." The computer said.

"Wow, that only took 10 seconds." Tarantula remarked.

"Well, is it what we're expecting?" Mr. Shark asked.

"Glasses recognized to be crafted by Olympian gods." The computer identified the glasses. "Glasses identified as The Glasses of Aphrodite. These glasses have been known to protect the gods from invasion of love and lust deities. These glasses allowed them to look at these deities without being charmed by their beauty and glamour. However, due to some interestingly modern ingredients to it and the usage of dark magic, this may most likely be a counterfeit."

"Modern ingredients?" Mr. Wolf asked.

"The ingredients used to create these ancient glasses are hard to create with the use of light magic but is much easier with the use of dark magic. It started with a normal pair of glasses, then it needed the essence of nymphs and sirens, some cloud crystals, rainbow residue, and a bolt of electricity."

"It takes dark magic to create these glasses quicker?" Mr. Snake asked.

"Yeah." Piranha replied. "Aphrodite didn't have any trouble using light magic to create them. She's immortal, so she's basically like a robot. She doesn't get tired or worn out, so she was able to complete enough glasses for the Olympian gods in only 25 years."

"25 YEARS?! DANG, THAT'S A LONG TIME!" Shark yelled.

"How did you know that, Piranha?" Wolf asked.

"I read it in a book once." Piranha answered.

"Well, what did you expect? She's the god of love, beauty and pleasure and procediation." The others look at their wolf leader. "I GOTTA DO SOMETHING WITH THIS TRIVIA!"

"Were love deities really a big problem for the gods at those times?" Shark asked.

"DARN RIGHT THEY WERE!" Piranha answered loudly.

"Why would this roped stranger give a pair to Axle? It makes no sense that he would give it to a cop who could arrest him with 100 volts in two seconds if he knew who gave it to him."

"Maybe he had intentions to spy on us with those glasses, so when it looked like we're about to capture them, he would come in the last minute and rescue them." Diane replied.

"Hmm, that is a good plan." Wolf piped in.

"Well, we have the ingredients for the glasses, so let's make them." Snake said.

"No. You heard Axle." Diane reminded. "We're not allowed to duplicate glasses without permission. That would be like counterfeiting."

"CRAAAAP!"

"Well, that's easy." Shark scoffed. "We just talk with Aphrodite and ask her if we can duplicate the glasses. Then we use them to defeat the crooks, they're in jail, the Good Guys win, the end."

"Well, talking with her in person might be very difficult." Piranha said.

"This ought to be fun."

"Well, it's worth a shot." Wolf spoke up. "So far, there's no other way for us to get those glasses without breaking the law."

After they did get permission, Snake said, "Well, now that we're underway of getting special glasses with permission, let's work on finding out who we're dealing with here."

"Well, the computer gave us the ingredients, and we happen to have a lot of glasses to spare." Piranha said.

"Now, who are we dealing with?" Shark asked.

"Well, we did learn the duo's names." Wolf answered. "The roadrunner was named…uh…I can't seem to recall."

"I think it was Senior Larry." Snake said.

"Oh, yeah."

"It took me a long time realize that the poodle's named was Le Fifi." Tarantula said.

"Alright. Let's get this party started." Diane agreed.

"Computer?" Wolf addressed the computer. "Give us information on Senior Larry and Le Fifi."

"Senior Larry Gilligan Rodriquez was a former race-car driver in Mexico who won 5 races in a single season." The computer answered. "He was a great champ eight years running until his big wreck five years ago. The wreck was said to have been caused by an unknown blast from an unknown location. The blast disabled Larry's car, and he was unable to control it. He survived, but was uncontrollably attractive, and he gained unwanted attention from a lot of women, even his male manager's wife. He was soon fired from his job and went to a life of crime."

"No doubt this roped stranger is responsible for the loss of his job." Tarantula commented.

"And his fam fatale accomplice?" Snake requested.

"Le Fifi Tracey Archambeau was a former supermodel from France whose attractiveness made her rich and famous." The computer continued. "Unfortunately, a blast of magic made her insanely attractive, and prone to violent anger. Her female boss was forced to fire her by reluctance and became a shame to her pacifist family."

"Totally the unknown character's fault." Piranha commented.

"Definitely." Shark agreed.

"Senior Larry and Le Fifi eventually met each other in Miami, Florida, where they discovered that they both lost their jobs because of an unknown evil sorcerer." The computer informed. "They started forming a bond with each other and began a crime spree throughout America robbing banks. They are currently hatching a plan to get revenge on this sorcerer and get their old jobs back."

"Well, that explains a lot." Wolf commented.

"Uh, do they honestly think they can be back on top if they rob banks?" Snake asked. "I mean, that's gonna make them infamous instead of back in the job. Their conveniently same gendered bosses won't hire them back!"

"It's possible the charm spell on them has a corruptive side effect, so they are unable to get a proper sense of moral ethics." Piranha said.

"Then if that's the case, we need to make those glasses pronto." Shark declared.

"Alrighty then." Wolf said. "Let's see, the computer said we needed essence of nymphs and sirens, cloud crystals, rainbow residue, and a bolt of electricity."

"Essence of nymphs and sirens?" Snake asked. "Crap! I thought we would NEVER come across sirens."

"We are dealing with the kind of sirens that relied on beautiful singing instead of loved one mimicry."

"But where are we gonna find that nymph essences, crystal a-la cloud, rainbow stuff, and a shock of electricity?" Piranha asked.

"Well, there's a dolphin magician in town who can make cloud crystals and rainbow stuff, and he has nymphs working for him." Diane answered. "But I should warn you that they're shy. They can blend in with flora easily, and once they do, you can't get the essence. You need to get it when they're in their nymph forms. He also has sirens of traditional origin. Special precautions were made to prevent their beautiful voices to make their escape."

"Fabulous." Shark said. "How do you reckon we get nymph essence from shy nymphs?"

"We'll have to ask the dolphin since they trust him."

"Now, we just need siren essence." Wolf spoke up. "If only we know where to find sirens in such short notice."

"Strangest luck in the world much?" Tarantula asked.

"I have an idea." Snake spoke up. "We'll consult the dolphin magician and obtain enough essence to create the glasses."

"But let's remember not to be hypnotized by their wonderful singing." Piranha reminded.

"Yes." Shark agreed. "Heaven forbid we get attracted by not just Senior Larry, Le Fifi, or Aphrodite."

"FLOOR IT!" Wolf exclaimed. "WE'RE OFF TO SEE A DOLPHIN MAGICIAN!" They take off.


Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand there's chapter three for y'all! The Good Guys learned everything about the two robbers, mostly about why they became criminals. The even learned the required ingredients needed to make anti-charm glasses, which will prevent them from getting affected by the duo's attractiveness.
