A/N: Hey everyone, I know it's been awhile since I updated this story. But this story is still alive. Let's read some reviews.
Heros Central: Flame Drama is a hero, she had a minor role in Dia De Los Malos. As for Jandro, you'll see in this chapter.
Chompii12: We'll see.
In a dark and large town with wooden houses and brick roads, there was a ginormous factory with smoke emitting from the three chimneys and a few shady trucks exiting from the back. Two criminal men wearing buffalo tattoos driving a transportation van drove across the bridge and parked in front of the entrance. The two criminals exited the van while holding a chest before one of them pointed a pistol at one of the guards.
"Back off, buddy. We'll take this to the big man." The criminal said before he and his look-alike companion walked inside.
Unknown to them, El Tigre, White Pantera and Puma Loco were watching from the top of the wall surrounding the factory.
"So what's the plan?" Puma Loco asked.
"We need to sneak in and draw no attention to ourselves." White Pantera said.
"I'm with dad. We just sneak inside, grab the map and leave before Jandro Henriquez knows anything." El Tigre said in agreement. "It'll be easy peasy."
"Lemon squeezy!" A voice finished as the three Rivera men gasped in shock at seeing Frida, Maria and Albino Burrito standing next to them.
"Maria/mom, Frida, Burrito!" The Rivera men questioned.
"What are you guys doing here?" Ep Tigre asked.
"Helping you three steal the map. What else." Frida replied.
"Weren't you supposed to take care of them, Maria?" White Pantera asked.
"They ran away before I could take them home." Maria said while holding a briefcase in her hand.
"What is in that case?" Puma Loco asked curiously.
"Just something I'm only using for self-defence." Maria answered.
"But Frida, I'm pretty sure your parents are gonna be worried sick when you're not home." El Tigre said.
"Don't worry, I left them a note." Frida assured.
At her house, Frida's parents were knocking on her bedroom door.
"Frida, are you there?" Carmela asked. "Lunch is nearly ready."
"Frida you better open up." Chief Suárez said as he knocked on the door. "We're coming in!" He and Carmela opened the door and see that she's not there.
"Where did she go?" Carmela asked.
"I have no idea." Chief Suárez replied before he noticed a small note on Frida's bed and picked it up. "What is this supposed to be?"
"It looks like a message." Carmela said as she started reading it. "Dear mom and dad, I'm going to help Manny and his family steal a very special map from this crime lord and then I'm going to find the legendary wishing star. I'll probably see you two tomorrow. PS: don't let Anita and Nikita eat my churros."
"She ran away to help that Rivera boy!?" Chief Suárez exclaimed.
"I thought that was a legend?" Carmela said.
"It's just a story we used to tell our daughters." Chief Suárez said. "But I'm going to ground Frida after I bring her back home."
"Well, sounds like your dad's going to kill me when I get back home." El Tigre gulped.
"Sure sounds like it." Frida said.
"But I will have my nine lives." El Tigre smirked. "Now let's get that map."
"You might need this." Burrito said while holding up a stick. "After all, you don't have your claws anymore."
"Dude, that's a stick." El Tigre replied.
"It was the only thing I can find." Burrito said, El Tigre sighed as he grabbed the stick.
"El Tigre." El Tigre said unenthusiastic.
"Look on the bright side, Manny. You can use it like a sword." White Pantera said.
"A very useless sword. But I doubt I'll need it." El Tigre replied before he opened a door to a nearby vent. "I'm the sneakiest kid in this whole family. Watch."
El Tigre gets into the duct while the others watched. "He's not that sneaky huh?" Frida asked.
"Not really." Puma Loco replied.
"He couldn't even sneak pass us when he was little." Maria said.
"Or when he tried stealing from the cookie jar as a baby." White Pantera added.
Inside the factory's vents, El Tigre crawled his way through the tight pipes before he looked down a hole to see some factory workers looking intense at the person they worked for, Jandro Henriquez. He was a large man with short black hair, an eyepatch on his left eye, some small frizz hair on his chin, a black and white buisness suit with a black tie and a pair of rust-covered books. Jandro looked down at some high-tech weapons while his employees felt nervous.
"These new weapons look…good." Jandro said with an intimidating frown. "Have them delivered to our buyers now."
The employees took all the weapons away before Jandro saw the two criminal men walking towards him with the chest in their hands.
"Mr Henriquez, the Buffalo Brothers have a delivery for you." The first brother said.
"Excellent. Let's discuss this in my office." Jandro said as he lead the Buffalo brothers to his office, as they entered his office. "As you can see I'm not just an ordinary collector."
El Tigre followed them into Jandro's office and he saw tons of superhero and supervillains items and weapons on the walls.
"Wow, these are some pretty nice things you've got." The second buffalo brother said.
"Yes, I collect powerful items that belong to deceased or retired heroes and villains." Jandro replied. "I've got mystic swords, drained elemental powers, magic staffs and even doomsday weapons."
While they were talking, El Tigre got out of the vents and he hid himself behind a ginormous laser cannon.
"Isn't this supposed to be Dr Frost's ice cannon?" The first buffalo brother asked while looking at a cannon with an ice symbol on it.
"Yes, but it's just a trinket like everything else in here. They're nothing compared to the unlimited power of the Wishing Star." Jandro said.
"Bingo." El Tigre muttered.
"Of course the location of the wishing star is useless without the map." Jandro said.
"That's why we managed to find it for you." The second buffalo brother said.
"I know. Now hand it over." Jandro ordered before immediately grabbing the box and placing it on his table. "After so many years, I'll finally be able to find the wishing star and make my greatest wish come true."
"But what about our payment?" The first Buffalo brother asked.
"Yeah fork over our money!" The second brother said.
"Sure, sure. I'll take care of that." Jandro said annoyingly as he placed a key onto the desk and walked away.
El Tigre saw this as his chance and quietly crawled up to the desk before grabbing the key and using it to unlock the chest. He opened the chest and saw that inside it was a black map with golden outlines and a sparkly star symbol in the middle of it.
"Yes. This is the map." El Tigre whispered with a smile as he pulled the map out. "Now all I've gotta due is use this map to find the star and I'll be able to make my wish."
However, a pair of red eyes appeared from within the chest's dark inside lid and El Tigre was immediately kicked in the face, dropping the map in the process. Jumping out of the chest was Black Cuervo, who grabbed the map and stared at El Tigre with a surprised look.
"Tigre?" Black Cuervo asked.
"Cuervo?" El Tigre asked.
"What are you doing here? Getting the map, that's what." The two both replied.
"Wait, why do you want the map?" Black Cuervo questioned.
"None of your buisness. Now hand it over." El Tigre demanded as he snatched the map from her.
"No. This map is mine." Black Cuervo replied firmly, taking the map back. "I'm double crossing Django and his villain crew."
"No, that's what I'm doing." El Tigre argued. "The villains tried hiring me earlier today."
"Well, they tried to hire me and my family two weeks ago." Black Cuervo said with a smirk. "That makes you Plan B."
"Plan B? I'm a plan A." El Tigre said.
"No you aren't." Black Cuervo said,
"Aha!" Jandro exclaimed, causing the two of them to duck behind the chest as the crime lord was looking at a shelf. "There it is!"
"Phew." El Tigre said in relief.
"Now then, here's your payment." Jandro said as he gave the buffalo brothers some kind of golden staff.
"Hold on, you said we'd get an unlimited amount of gold for bringing you that map." The first brother replied with a frown.
"Indeed I did. Ever heard of Lord Platinum's golden staff?" Jandro asked.
"I call first dibs!" The second buffalo brother stated.
He immediately touched the golden staff, but then it glowed and his hands and arms slowly got turned into gold while Jandro watched with a sinister smile.
"Oh no! Not good! I don't like gold anymore!" The second buffalo brother exclaimed before he was completely turned into gold.
"It turns those who touch it into gold. You will share your weight in gold." Jandro said.
"That is a little bit messed up. Even by my standards." Black Cuervo whispered.
"That's what happens when you choose to work for Jandro Henriquez." El Tigre replied.
"Holy crap my brother is made out of gold!" The only Buffalo brother exclaimed.
"So what're you going to do with him? Keep him as a gardening statue or sell him for cash?" Jandro questioned.
"You know what? I'm just going to call for help, right now." Black Cuervo muttered before pressing a button on her wrist device.
"Yeah, me too." El Tigre replied as he sent a message on a phone he got from his pocket.
But then, the two of them felt a shaking noise coming from the roof and a metallic fist punched through it before Dr Chipotle Jr was lowered down by a rope.
"Hahahah! Yes, my ingenious plan has worked!" Dr Chipotle Jr yelled triumphantly.
But then his rope snapped in half and the young evil genius fell onto the floor with a painful shout.
"I did not expect that." Black Cuervo said.
Jandro heard the commotion behind him and turned around to see the young intruders in his office.
"What the?!" Jandro asked in shock.
"Excellent plan, Dr Chilly Pepper." Django said sarcastically as he and the other Miracle City villains were standing from the hole with unimpressed looks. "That wasn't noisy and a total failure at all."
"It's Chipotle!" Dr. Chipotle Jr shouted.
"Django of the dead, shouldn't your grandma read you a bedtime story?" Jandro asked.
"I only thought to show up and steal the map with my new crew." Django replied as he and the villains dropped down.
Suddenly, the left side of the office bursted open and appearing from it was White Pantera and Puma Loco.
"White Pantera and Puma Loco?" Jandro questioned.
"What are you all doing here?" Django asked.
"Just helping our boy with a robbery. Nothing much." Puma Loco said.
"Now surrender the map to us or we shall deliver-" White Pantera said before he was suddenly cut off by another explosion in the wall's right side.
"What's with all the explosions, man?!" El Oso asked rhetorically.
Emerging from the new hole was Voltura and Lady Gobbler, who had their focus on Black Cuervo.
"Young lady, why are you calling us now?! I specifically told you to infiltrate this building and steal…" Voltura trailed off when she noticed everyone else in the room.
"Uh…can I go now?" The remaining buffalo brother asked while holding the gold statue of his brother.
"Sure, whatever." Jandro said as he immediately left.
"El Tigre?! You're here?!" Che asked in disbelief.
"Hey, everyone. Long time no see." El Tigre said.
"Hola, Jandro." Black Cuervo greeted with a sly smile.
"Did you miss us?" Lady Gobbler asked.
"Lady Gobbler, Voltura and Black Cuervo. My, my, you three have a lot of nerve coming back here." Jandro glared.
"Please. We were the best thieves you hired in your life." Voltura said.
"You robbed me!" Jandro argued.
"You set us up, idiota!" Black Cuervo replied.
"You three said you were going on a vacation in London!" Django said to the Flock Of Fury.
"We did. And we managed to steal the queen's crown." Lady Gobbler replied.
"And you're supposed to be dead, El Tigre!" Sartana exclaimed.
"I got better?" El Tigre said sheepishly.
"No matter. I will kill you all anyway." Jandro said as he snapped his fingers.
A bunch of laser turrets appeared out of the walls and they aimed at everyone in the office.
"We did not plan for this." General Chapuza muttered.
"Actually, I did." Black Cuervo said before she brought out an egg bomb and threw it on the floor.
"Duck and cover!" Cactus Kid yelled.
The egg exploded and created a ginormous cloud of smoke in the office. Black Cuervo flew out of the office while holding the map with El Tigre still latched on it. Jandro walked out of his office while coughing and saw the young supers escaping with the map before he grabbed the ice cannon from earlier.
"I hate super hero and villain children!" Jandro yelled before firing an ice ray.
Black Cuervo was then encased in a block of ice and crashed onto the floor while El Tigre started running away with the map. Black Cuervo used her laser to blast the ice away and flew after El Tigre.
E Tigre looked behind him and sees Black Cuervo closing in after him. "Oh jeez." El Tigre muttered as he jumped over some crates, right when Black Cuervo flew underneath him. But El Tigre kicked Cuervo's jet pack causing her to crash into other crates.
"El Tigre, you big filth!" Black Cuervo yelled angrily.
"The best super child has won!" El Tigre said with a victorious smile.
But then, Voltura flew straight at him and pinned the tiger-themed Rivera to the floor before taking the map from him.
Voltura then flies away with the map, right when White Pantera kicks her right in the face, causing her to release her grip on the map, but White Pantera grabs the map and runs off. "I got the map!" He shouted, but that was short lived when a pair of bolas tie up his legs, causing him to trip to the ground.
Lady Gobbler grabs the map from White Pantera. "Now I can see why my daughter broke up with you." Lady Gobbler said as she flew off.
"I broke up with her!" White Pantera retorted.
"As if I could forget!" Voltura shouted.
Puma Loco jumped out of the office and he fired a bunch of missiles at Lady Gobbler, causing bunch of explosions around her that made her drop the map. Puma Loco shot his mech's hand at the map and grabbed it.
"Thank you for the map!" Puma Loco called.
Puma Loco flew away and Lady Gobbler sighed. "Just like when stole my heart, only to break it." Lady Gobbler said.
Just then, Black Cuervo rocketed out of the pile of crates and she tackled Puma Loco away before swiping the map from his mechanical hands.
"You old people are always too slow!" Black Cuervo mocked as her mother and grandmother flew beside her.
"Thank you for making our job so much easier, Riveras!" Voltura called out.
"Ugh! Can this get any worse?!" El Tigre asked in frustration.
Right after he said that, Django and his villain crew burst through the office door and knocked Jandro away in the process.
"There! They have the map!" Django said.
"Me and my big mouth." El Tigre muttered.
"It looks like you three already have new problems, so we'll just leave now." Voltura said before the Flock of Fury flew ahead to a nearby window.
"Adios, Riveras!" Black Cuervo called out.
"They got the map!" Puma Loco shouted.
"Well this sucks." Django said.
"Get those Riveras!" Sartana ordered.
"Run!" White Pantera shouted as the Rivera men begin to run away as the villains began to attack them,
The Riveras eventually made it to a railing lift and saw the villains climbing after them.
"Get over here, mans! I'm gonna pound you all into cat paste!" El Oso stated.
El Tigre had no other choice but to pull out his stick as Cactus Kid got in front of him.
"Is that a stick? What are you going to-" El Tigre used the stick to poke Cactus Kid in the eye, causing him to fall back down. "Ow! My eye!"
"Ha it worked!" El Tigre replied.
"That stick won't work on me man." El Oso said as he runs towards El Tigre, but El Tigre dodged and smacked El Oso's legs causing him to trip.
"You were saying?!" El Tigre asked smugly.
"You got lucky man." El Oso replied.
"We need to leave now!" Puma Loco said.
"We know, Rodolfo!" Puma Loco replied as he punched General Chapuza and Che away.
But then, Senor Siniestro landed in front of the Riveras and El Tigre threw his stick against his metal suit.
"You shouldn't have done that, partner." Senor Siniestro said with a menacing glare.
El Tigre chuckled nervously before he, White Pantera and Puma Loco were knocked across the entire room towards where the Flock of Fury were trying to escape.
"Oh no." Lady Gobbler said.
"These imbeciles." Voltura muttered annoyingly.
"I hate them so much." Black Cuervo added.
"Who cares? We have we have what we need let's go." Lady Gobbler said.
"We can't just leave them!" Black Cuervo shouted.
The Riveras suddenly crashed into the Flock of Fury and they all smashed through the window, landing onto a wooden wagon. When they all stood up, the Flock of Fury noticed that their jetpacks were damaged from the fall.
The Flock of Fury all got up and tried to fly away but their jetpacks all sparked instead of flew. "Damn it!" Voltura said.
"Thanks for that, Riveras!" Black Cuervo insulted.
"You dumb birds got in the way!" El Tigre argued.
"What did you call us?!" Lady Gobbler asked angrily.
"Hey, El Tigre!" Albino Burrito greeted as he, Frida and Maria appeared on the front seat of the wagon. "Nice to see you got the map!"
"They're here too." Black Cuervo groaned.
"Yeah we got it now drive!" El Tigre shouted.
"Sure thing, dude!" Frida replied before she grabbed the lace and flipped it, causing the horse to rush out into the town.
A bunch of crooks that work for Jandro began chasing the group on bikes and fired their guns at them while the Riveras and Flock of Fury were engaged in a tug-of-war for the map.
"Cool. We have three new members of the team!" Burrito said.
"We're not friends!" The Riveras and Flock of Fury shouted.
"Help me drive!" Frida shouted as she dragged Burrito towards herself.
"Hola, Carmelita! How long has it been?" Maria asked politely. "Eight years? Five years!"
"Do not talk to me!" Voltura shouted.
"Just making small talk, Yesh!" Maria said.
"We could have made it to the wishing star, but you damaged our jetpacks!" Lady Globber shouted.
"Maybe you shouldn't have gotten in our way when we got punched by that evil Italian!" Puma Loco retorted.
"You had to get in the way! Why do you want the wishing star?!" Black Cuervo asked.
"To rid the world of villains like you!" White Pantera said.
"No! To become the richest and most powerful old man on Earth!" Puma Loco declared.
"None of your buisness!" El Tigre stated with a glare. "Just give us the map and fly back to your nest, you stupid Pigeons!"
"Never and besides our jetpacks are broken thanks to you boys!" Black Cuervo replied.
"You three deserve it for being thieves!" Frida called.
"Silence, Frida Suárez! I shall have my vendetta on you soon!" Black Cuervo shouted.
Frida and Burrito made the house steer the wagon left as Jandro's men kept firing their guns at them, with three of them even firing rocket launches that blew up some buildings when they missed. Maria was started to hyperventilate from the situation and Frida immediately handed her a paper bag to breath in.
"She's nothing but a weakling! Getting panic attacks right here and now." Voltura said.
"Do not talk to my wife that way!" White Pantera shouted. "Surrender the map, at once!"
"No! This map is mine!" Voltura said.
"Mine!" White Pantera replied.
"Mine!" Black Cuervo said.
"Mine!" El Tigre said.
"Mine!" Lady Gobbler said.
"Mine!" Puma Loco said.
"Blockade!" Maria shouted getting everyone else's attention.
"What?!" Everyone asked.
They looked ahead and saw there was a blockage of bricks and packages ahead of them. Black Cuervo immediately brought out their laser and blasted the blockade away, allowing the wagon to continue racing ahead.
"Problem solved." Black Cuervo smirked as she puts her blaster away.
But then, more bullets passed by them and they all glared at Jandro's men continuing to chase them. El Tigre noticed some sacks of money on the wagon with them and he kicked them off, causing a bunch of villagers to see them and start collecting the coins in one big pile. Jandro's men had to stop their bikes since the villagers were now blocking their path.
"Nice one, dude." Frida said.
"You're welcome, great people! Have a nice day with your new pennies, brought to you by El Tigre!" El Tigre called out heroically.
But then El Tigre froze up right when he sees that Bounty Hunter from the night before standing there, glaring at El Tigre. El Tigre felt his heart racing at the sight of him.
The bounty hunter whistled in a scary musical way as he put two coins over his eyes and pointed at El Tigre, who felt even more scared now.
"Speed up! Get us out of here!" El Tigre ordered desperately. "Go, go!"
"What gives Rivera?" Black Cuervo asked.
"GO!" El Tigre barked at Burrito causing him to command the horse to go faster.
From a nearby rooftop, the League of Alliance Society was watching the Riveras and Flock of Fury escape the town.
"Looks like El Tigre got the map." Cosmic Cleopatra said. "And he's joined the Flock of Fury."
"What do we do now, Sombrero?" Industrialist asked.
"I say we let that boy, his family, that blue haired glue and the thieving birds use the map to find that wishing star and we'll follow them straight to it." Silver Sombrero replied. "When the time comes, we'll take the map and make our way to the star ourselves."
"That will be easier said than done." Flama Drama said before the four heroes left.
A/N: The race to the wishing star is on, and by the looks of it The Riveras, Flock of Fury, Frida and Burrito are in the lead. But for how long? Please read and review.
