El Tigre the new adventures Season 1 Episode 5 – Confrontation
[Soon after Marcus had left]
Rodolfo and Ryumaru had finished discussing the criminals on the run. They all sat in the living room sipping coffee and just enjoying the peace and quiet. Melissa was in the kitchen washing the plates from when everyone had dinner, and Manny was sitting on the couch staring up at the ceiling. He was still upset with Marcus and couldn't get over the frustration he was currently having with him. Frida was silently flipping through a magazine humming one of her favorite songs. Melissa had finished washing the dishes and walked over to them.
"Is everyone ok?" Melissa asked softly.
"Yes, everything is fine. We're all about to head to bed soon." Rodolfo responded smiling at her.
Melissa looked over at the front door and then back at Rodolfo "Umm…are you sure it's ok for you all to let him go out on his own?" She asked worriedly.
"Tch who cares about him…" Manny said bitterly
"Manny that's not nice." Rodolfo said sternly to Manny
"Whatever…" Manny said picking up a magazine off the table and opening it.
Ryumaru sighed "She's right Rodolfo. It's very careless of us to just let him go. He's strong yes but he's still young…" He said getting to his feet.
"Why should we go after him? It's obvious he doesn't care about any of us! So why should we care about him?!" said Manny looking up at Ryumaru "He's nothing but a selfish punk!"
"Manny that's enough!" Rodolfo said glaring at his son. He looks over at Melissa "I'm so sorry."
"No no it's fine," Melissa said with a smile "I'm sure everyone is just worried."
"I'm going to go after Marcus." Ryumaru said heading to the door.
"Manny, go with him." Said Rodolfo
"What? Why should I?!" asked Manny "That guy doesn-"
"I will not ask you again! He is our ally! I will stay here and watch over the house and Frida! Now go with Ryu now!" Rodolfo said raising his voice a bit.
Manny groaned and gets off the couch and heads over to Ryumaru scowling. The two of them walk out of the house and closes the door behind them. Rodolfo sighed and takes another sip of coffee.
"He does seem like a nice boy though…" Melissa said rubbing her hand.
"He is…at times…" Rodolfo said rubbing the back of his head.
"When he wants to be," said Frida flipping through her music magazine and chuckles.
Melissa giggles "Would you like me to refill your coffee Mr. Rivera?" She asked kindly
"No that'll be all. Thank you so much for treating us so kindly." Rodolfo said sincerely
"Anything for our hero's," Melissa said smiling warmly at him.
Rodolfo looked over at the book shelves that were sitting in corner next to the window. His eyes fell upon a picture that was on the center of the shelf. The picture had Melissa, holding Andrew in her arms, and another man, with blond hair and blue eyes with his arms around Melissa.
"Umm excuse me." Rodolfo said to Melissa as she picked up his coffee.
"Yes?" Melissa replied.
"If I may ask…where is the husband?"
Melissa's hand flinched and she slightly hung her head low. She turned around walked over to kitchen and placed the cup in the sink to wash it. Frida looked over at Rodolfo with a nervous expression on her face.
"Melissa I'm sorry if I brought up anything bad." Rodolfo apologized
"No it's fine." Melissa said looking out the kitchen window "It's…just a bit too soon is all…"
"What do you mean?" Frida asked carefully
Melissa sighs and she turns to everyone, and walks over to the living room then sits on the couch. She placed her right hand on her left and she looked at Rodolfo with sorrow in her eyes.
"Those criminals that you all are looking for…killed my husband…" Melissa said, trying to hold back her tears.
Frida gasped and placed her hands over her mouth. Rodolfo eyes widen a bit. Tears started to flow down Melissa's cheeks and she silently began to sob. Frida went over to her and placed her arm over her shoulder.
"Melissa…I'm-I'm so sorry…" Rodolfo said looking at her.
"Andrew…h-he hasn't been the same ever since then…" Melissa said through her sobs.
It would take a couple of minutes till Melissa had finally calmed down. She thanks both Frida and Rodolfo for being there for her and she walks upstairs to go check on Andrew.
Frida sighed and she held herself. Rodolfo looked over at Frida "Are you ok Frida?" He asked
"Yeah I'm fine…" Frida replied "It's just…really sad you know."
"Yes I know…" Rodolfo said nodding.
Upstairs, Melissa entered Andrew's room. Andrew was lying in bed with the covers over his head. Melissa sat on the edge of the bed and moves her hand over to Andrew's head and softly pats him.
"Goodnight love…" Melissa whispered
"Mom…" Andrew said.
"Yes dear?"
"I miss daddy…" Andrew said looking over at mother with tears in his eyes.
Tears began to fall down from Melissa eyes. Andrew lies up and crawls over to her mother, burying his face into her chest. Melissa wraps his arms around her son and gently rocks him slowly.
"I miss him too dear…" She whispered to him. "I miss him too…"
[Back to Marcus]
"D-DAMN IT!" Marcus roared. He forced his hand up with all his strength. Chio's blade pierced through Marcus's hand, and Marcus groaned at the pain.
"Tch…this little punk is tough." said Adrian, as he closed his eyes; and the pressure that was around Marcus increased ten folds, causing Marcus's face and body completely be stuck to floor. Marcus screamed at the overwhelming pressure that was surrounding his body.
"What the hell is going oooooooon?!" Marcus roared. He couldn't move. The pressure was so intense, even a small creator on the floor was starting to form.
Chio picked up her blade and stares at Marcus on the ground "Hmm…interesting. I didn't think there was anyone else who could get up from the first capacity." She said tossing the blade into the air and catching it.
"Same here," said Adrian "Alright Chio, go ahead and kill him- What the hell?" He said surprised as he looked down at Marcus.
Fire was beginning to form around Marcus's body. It began to spread around his upper body and down to his legs. The fire began to crackle and burn, and swirl around his body.
"SHIT! CHIO HE'S GOING TO BLOW!" Adrian bellowed as he lunges forward, wraps his arms around Chio, and uses body weight to break through the apartment door, hopping over the railing.
Marcus's entire body sends off a powerful wave of fire that blew the roof off the entire apartment complex. The rumble from the explosion caused the entire area to shake, and everyone four blocks down could feel it. Adrian had shielded Chio from any ruble that was flying towards their way. He looked down at Chio "Are you ok?" He asked worriedly
"I'm fine." Chio said looking up at him.
Adrian gets off of Chio and gets to his feet. He holds out his hand and helps her off the ground. "That kid…is he really an Art of fire user?" He said looking towards the apartment complex that was now caught completely on fire.
"It seems so…I didn't expect him to be one…this is seriously a problem Adrian…" Chio whispered to him.
"You can say that again…" said Adrian agreed
The two of them looked up at the apartment complex. Marcus had walked out of the now burned away room. He stood on top of the balcony and glared down at them as the fire raged on behind him. He hops down and lands in front of them. He pops his neck and stretches a bit, working out the kinks.
"I don't know what the hell you pulled off back there…but it's not going to happen again." Marcus threatened. He then eyes down Chio "You're a cold women…playing with another man's emotions. I thought we had something special."
Chio grinned "You're so naïve as to actually think I'd be with some little kid like you." She scoffed
Marcus smirked. He holds out his hands and fire raged around them. "Anyway, it's obvious you two are the criminals we were searching high and low for. I'm going to go on a wild guess and say that you two aren't coming quietly?"
"What the hell do you think?" Adrian said glaring at him.
Marcus slammed his hands to ground "ART OF FIRE! BURNING SERPENT!" He roared as all the fire from his hand sinks into the ground, and then bursting out was a large flaming serpent that lunged at Adrian and Chio.
Both Adrian and Chio leap out of the way as the flaming serpent hits the ground. Chio summoned two kunai's in her hand out of thin air and tosses them at Marcus. Marcus was about to dodge move out of the way and dodge the kunai's but something locked him in place. He fell to his knees once again by an overwhelming force. The Kunai's ended up striking him in the shoulders
"ARGH!" Marcus groaned. "What the hell is going on? Why does this keep happening?!"
Adrian lets out a confident laugh "What was that about you not falling for it again? Get him Chio!"
Chio summoned a dagger in her hand and was ready to toss it at him; but Marcus quickly opened his mouth, and blaze of flames shoots out from his mouth at Chio and Adrian. The two of them had no choice but to leap out of the way landing on top of nearby buildings. Once they did, Marcus was able to move again. The overwhelming force was lifted off of him.
Marcus quickly gets to his feet and glares up at them "Damn it what kind of game are they playing?!" He said aggressively.
Loud sirens could be heard coming from behind Marcus. He turns around seeing three fire trucks pull up behind him. The fire fighter's hop off the trucks and quickly grab the fire hoses and hooks them up to a nearby hydrant, they begin to spray down the fire that was raging furiously on the apartment building.
Adrian looks over at the fire trucks and grins "Perfect…" He whispered deviously. He closes his eyes, and focuses on the fire trucks. A vein appeared on his head as he did this. Then, one of the fire fighter's trucks began to move slightly. Then suddenly the fire trucks were lifted into the air, and sent hurdling towards Marcus at a great speed.
"WHAT THE HELL?!" Marcus said taken off guard. Marcus held up his hands ready to take the hit of the fire truck. To his surprise once he opened his eyes. The fire truck was gone. He looked around the ground to see that the fire truck was sliced into three separate pieces.
"How many times do I have to come in and save your stupid butt?" said Manny landing in front of Marcus
Chio and Adrian looked down at Manny. "So that's him…El Tigre…" said Adrian "Just great…" He said frustrated.
"We need to go…I don't want to draw any more attention then we need to." Chio said to Adrian.
"Right…let's go."
Adrian picks up Chio, and with one leap. He jumps high into the air; it almost looked as if he was floating. And just like that they were out of sight.
Marcus lets out a groan of pain and sits down on the ground.
"Serves you right you stupid idiot!" Manny said glaring down at Marcus.
"Oh shut the hell up!" Marcus growled at Manny as he yanks the kunais out of his right shoulder.
"I think what you meant to say was "Oh thanks Manny for saving my life!" you ungrateful jerk!" Manny shouted at Marcus.
Ryumaru was in the back assisting the fire fighters. He moves his hands around creating a ball of wind; and he tosses the ball of wind on the apartment complex. That ball of wind began to expand into sphere of wind that was going around in circles, putting out the fire. Ryumaru lands on the ground, the fire fighters thank Ryumaru for assisting. He bows and apologizes for the fire truck, which they respond by laughing and shrugging it off. Ryumaru looks over towards Manny and Marcus and walks over to them.
Ryumaru looked down at Marcus.
Marcus looked up at Ryumaru, he scoffs and looks away "I'm sorry…there I said it…" He said in irritable tone.
"Marcus…" Ryumaru said trying to sound as calm as possible. "How many people were in that apartment complex?"
Marcus's eyes suddenly became wide and so did Manny's. Marcus quickly gets to his feet and look towards the apartment complex.
"Be glad it was abandoned and was going to be tore down soon." Ryumaru explained. "Were you that reckless while fighting against those criminals?"
"I HAD NO CHOICE!" Marcus began "I couldn't move! One of those bastards did something to me! I couldn-"
"You wouldn't have had to make a choice like that if you weren't being so careless!" Ryumaru scolded Marcus. "You could have killed many people today. You better be glad that that apartment complex was empty!"
Marcus slightly hung his head and clenches his fist.
"Now let's get back to Melissa's home. You have wounds that need tending to." Ryumaru said to him.
Marcus simply nods. And the three of them walked back to Melissa's home.
Elsewhere, Adrian and Chio landed on top of roof. Adrian sat next to Chio, staring up at the star covered sky. Chio looked over at Adrian. She scoots closer to him and leans on him, laying her head on his shoulder.
"Adrian…let's just go…" Chio whispered to him. "Let's just leave now…"
"They'll see us leaving Chio. We need to take care of them now…" Adrian whispered to her.
"Adrian I'm so tired of taking lives! I just want to leave without spilling anymore blood!" Chio said to him
"And I'm tired of getting chased by some stupid super hero's! We need to kill them now! Once we take care of them we'll leave right away. We'll change our looks and everything." Adrian said picking up Chio's hand and grasping it tightly "Then…we can finally just live in peace…"
Chio stared into Adrian's eyes. She sighs and nods. "Alright…this'll be the last time we ever have to fight…tomorrow will be it…"
Adrian leaned in and kissed Chio on the lips. Chio placed her hand around Adrian's neck deepening the kiss.
Adrian broke away and smiled at her "I love you Chio…"
She smiled back "I love you too Adrian…" she said softly.
…
Marcus was sitting on a chair in the kitchen with his shirt off. Melissa was wearing gloves and was tending to Marcus's cuts; stitching up the knife wounds and cleaning it. Rodolfo looked over at Marcus with a look of "I told you so" Written all over his face.
Melissa just stared at Marcus's body. There were so many deep scars that healed over time that was all over his body. "My goodness…how did you get all of these?" She asked shocked
"Jeez Marcus…what the heck have you been through?" Frida said looking over at him.
"Everything…" Marcus replied tiredly.
"I just hope you learned your lesson Marcus! Never get charmed by a pretty face! It'll cost you dearly!" Rodolfo preached.
"Look whose talking dad…" Manny said snickering
"T-That's completely different Manny!" Rodolfo said batting his eyes at his son.
Ryumaru stared over at Marcus and asked "Marcus. You fought against them for a bit right? What was the male criminal's power?"
Marcus looked over at Ryumaru "Well…I'm not particularly sure. All I know is that any time I tired doing anything I felt this overwhelming pressure appear around my body. I couldn't move at all..."
"Strange…" Ryumaru said rubbing his chin.
"More like annoying…" said Marcus to Ryumaru, he winced a bit, Melissa apologized and she began stitching up the last knife wound on Marcus's body.
"Who tossed that big truck at you? It just lifted off the ground on its own." said Manny
"No idea about that." Marcus said shaking his head
Melissa had finished up fixing Marcus's wounds and she puts the first aid kit away "All done." She said smiling at him and taking off her wounds.
"Thanks…" Marcus said softly to her.
Melissa nods "I'm here to help." She said heading to sink and cleans her gloves.
"It comes down to this…either it's telekinesis…or it's something completely different from that. But we can think about all of this tomorrow. Let's all get some rest now." Ryumaru said to everyone.
Manny lets out a big yawn "You don't need to tell me twice!" he said getting up from the couch and heading upstairs.
"Night guys, see you all in the morning!" Frida said heading upstairs as well.
Once Manny had entered the room he changes out of his normal closes and into something more comfortable. He turned around seeing Marcus enter the room, not even batting in and eye at him. Marcus just went over to his bed and laid down, not even putting the cover's over him.
"I'm still waiting for my thank you." Manny said to him.
Marcus didn't say anything.
Manny growls and pulls the covers back on his bed and lies down. "Stupid ungrateful punk…" Manny thought.
…
Morning had arrived. Manny was awoken by the bright sunlight that was beaming through the bedroom window and the sounds of the birds singing. Manny yawns and pulls the covers off of him. He grabs his tooth brush and heads into the bathroom to brush his teeth and get dressed. Once he was done freshening up he heads downstairs. He sees, Frida and Andrew sitting at the table and to his surprise Marcus.
"Wow…I didn't expect to see you here." said Manny walking over to sit down at
"I'm pretty sure when I left you were meowing at the window upset that I left. So I decided to stick around for breakfast." said Marcus eating his piece of toast
"Uh huh…" Manny said going over to the table and sitting next to Frida. He looked around seeing that Rodolfo and Ryumaru wasn't around "Where's dad and Ryu?" He looked over at Frida.
"The chief of police of Vens Vill came by while you and Marcus were still asleep. They said they wanted to have a talk about the criminals and some strategies or something." Said Frida
"Oh I see." Manny said as Melissa went over to Manny with a smile on her face and placing a plate of eggs and toast in front of him "Thanks!" He said smiling at her. As Manny picked up his fork, he noticed that Andrew was staring over at him. Manny waved at him "Hey!"
Andrew smiled sheepishly at him "H-Hi…" He said waving back "Umm…you're a superhero right? Who are you?"
"I'm El Tigre! I'm a hero from Miracle city!" Manny said proudly
"In other words he's an over-sized cat…" Marcus said placing his fork on the plate.
Manny glared at Marcus and clenched his fist.
"Do you have a costume?" Andrew asked curiously
"Yeah I do! You wanna see it?"
"Y-YEAH!"
Manny gets up from the table and spins his belt buckle, and with a mighty roar and flash of green light Manny transformed into El Tigre. Andrew looked at Manny in awe. He ran over to him and stared at Manny's costume.
"You look so cool!" Andrew said amazed. "You even have a tail!"
Melissa looked over at Andrew. She couldn't help but smile at his son's happiness. It had been such a long time since she'd seen Andrew so happy. Frida giggled as she watched Manny pick up Andrew with his tail slightly tossing him into the air and catching him in his arms.
A knock was heard from the front door of Melissa's home. Melissa hurried over to the front door and opened it. It was both Rodolfo and Ryumaru. Melissa had welcomed them back and let them into the house.
"Thank you Melissa." Rodolfo said with a smile. He looked over at Manny and Marcus "Ahh you two are finally up!"
"Morning dad!" Manny said to him.
"Marcus, how are your wounds holding up?" Ryumaru asked him.
"They're fine." Marcus replied. "They weren't anything to worry about to begin with."
"Alright everyone; today is the day that we go after these Criminals. The chief of police will be locking down all entrances in and out of Vens Vill. He says that there's a good possibility that they'll be trying to escape today." Ryumaru explained.
"Alright, we're going to finally get these guys!" Manny said sitting Andrew down
"Manny," Rodolfo said looking at him "Marcus," He said then looking at Marcus.
Both Manny and Marcus looked over at Rodolfo.
"You two have been at each other's throats for awhile. But you two need to understand that you both are ally's, you need to put whatever difference's you have aside and work together as a team and watch each other's backs! Understood?!"
Manny looks at Marcus, and Marcus looks at Manny.
"Understood," Marcus said nodding.
"Yeah, I get it." Manny said looking away from Marcus and rubbing his arm.
Rodolfo looks over at Frida "Frida, I know that you've had your run in with danger before. But it would be best if you make sure that you stay far away from town ok?"
"I gotcha," Frida said nodding.
Andrew hung his head low. Manny looks down at Andrew and pets his head "Don't worry! We're going to get those guys and kick their butts!" He said confidently
Andrew looked up at Manny and smiled weakly and then nods.
"Well, Manny, Marcus, let's head out. The chief of police all wants us to gather at station and prepare for lock down. We're going to be on steak out." Said Rodolfo
"Good luck El Tigre!" Andrew said to Manny.
"Thanks little guy!" Manny said patting his head once more, as he, Marcus, Rodolfo and Ryumaru leaves the home.
"Well, looks like Manny has a number one fan now." Frida said giggling.
Melissa giggled as well "It seems so." She said with a smile. She looks over at Andrew who was standing there with his head hung low. "Andrew dear are you ok?"
Andrew looks over at his mother with a smile on his face "Yeah mom I'm fine. I'm going to go up to my room…" he said turning around and running upstairs.
"Well…I guess he's just worried is all…" said Melissa
…
Both Manny and Marcus sat on a bench where they had a good view of the people passing by. Manny examined the area, keeping a close watch for Adrian and Chio. Marcus sat on the bench with his eyes closed and arms spread out across the bench.
Manny looked over at him "Are you seriously sleeping?!" he said with aggravation in his voice.
"No I'm not." He replied just as aggravated. "I'm sensing for murderous intent…"
Manny looked at him puzzled "You're sensing for Murderous intent?" He repeated. "How do you do that?"
"Sensing's one's energy, concentrating on the wavelength of that individual or individual's." Marcus explained
"Well…that's actually pretty cool." Manny said "Do you sense anybody now?"
"Not yet…" Marcus replied "Just…give me a few…"
"Manny, come in Manny." said Rodolfo through a radio device
"Yeah dad I can hear you." Manny said placing his finger on the ear piece communicator "hehe, I've always wanted to use these!"
"Has there been any strange activity? Anything at all?" Rodolfo asked
"Not yet dad, Marcus is trying to figure out where they are through this…sensory thing he's doing." Said Manny "He doesn't have anything yet,"
"Keep up the good work. If anything happens and it's too much for you to handle make sure you immediately contact me!" Said Rodolfo
"Daaad…I can handle stuff on my own!" Manny said with a sigh
"Make sure you do!"
"Ok ok, I will!" Manny said rolling his eyes and letting go of the button on the ear piece communicator
Marcus began chuckling and snickering
"Yeah yeah…laugh it up." Manny said crossing his arms and looking away.
"Nah…I'm actually kind of jealous…"
"Huh?" Manny looks over at Marcus
Marcus quickly sat up from the bench and looked straight forward. His eyes were shifting from left to right very quickly.
Manny looked at him curiously and asked "Do you sense something?"
"Definitely…" Marcus said seriously
"Well, where?" Manny asked as he looked around
Marcus looked forward. He examined the crowd of people that walked by across the street on the side walk. He made sure to keep a close eye on the faces of everyone that was walking by, sensing their emotion. Then finally he saw him. His hair was longer, he wore glasses on his face with small lens on them with a white button up shirt and dark blue jeans. He looked forward at Marcus. A grin came upon his face as he lean off the wall and walks around the corner.
"THAT'S HIM!" Manny said hopping off the bench along with Marcus and they chased after him.
The two of them hurried past the crowd of people and went around the corner. They stood in front of an entrance to the alleyway. Adrian was nowhere to be seen. Manny spins his belt transforming into El Tigre and Marcus kept his guard up as the two of them slowly walked down the alleyway. That same alleyway took the two of them to the back of an opened area. Broken down cars were all over the place.
"Where the heck did he go?" Manny said looking around the area "Can't you sense him or something?" He said batting his eyes at Marcus
"He's here, but damn I don't know where!" Marcus said, trying to focus as hard as he could "It never use to be this hard for me…"
The sound of moving metal could be heard coming from the right of them. The broken down yellow car lifted off the ground and was tossed towards Manny and Marcus.
Manny slashed through the broken down yellow car like butter, tear it into chucks of pieces. "COME ON OUT AND FACE US YOU COWARD!" He called out to Adrian.
"MANNY!" Marcus shouted at him
"WHAT?!" Manny shouted back turning to him. But it was too late. The broken pieces of metal that Manny had cut apart suddenly wrapped around Manny's body binding him down "H-HEY! THAT THE HECK?!"
"Tch…you little brats are seriously annoying me. You all should have just stayed where you came from." Adrian said floating down to them while standing on a piece of circular metal.
Marcus watched as he did so. Then it finally came to him "Y-You control metal!"
Adrian smirked down at him "Took you long enough…" He said moving his index finger forward. The red car that was behind him hovered over his head, it quickly started fold, twist and straightening out to look like a spear. Adrian grabs the spear and, slaps himself on the chest, and zooms down towards Marcus. Marcus hopped out of the way when Adrian thrust his metal spear towards Marcus, stabbing it through the ground. Marcus throw's a punch towards Adrian, but Adrian ducks and uppercuts Marcus in the jaw sending him off his feet crashing against a wall.
Manny had broken free from the metal bindings that were wrapped around Manny. He lets out fierce roar and lunges at Adrian slashing at him. Adrian dodges the slashes, he kicks Manny in the stomach and with one leap, he jumped far back over to a ledge and stood there. He taunted Manny. Manny growled and he charged at Adrian, but once he got close to him, that's when Manny saw in the corners of his eye a Kunai fly towards him. He stops dead in his tracks and jolts his head back. The Kunai fly's by his face and hit the wall.
Manny looked up, seeing Chio stare down at him wearing that cat mask with the slit eyes and red whiskers.
"Manny, come in! Has anything come up at all?!" Rodolfo said through Manny's ear piece.
"DAD THEY GOT US TRAPPED!" Manny shouted
Chio lifted her hands up into the air. Sparkles had appeared all around her, and out of thin air came kunai's that floated around Chio. Manny's eyes widen with shock.
He and Marcus were completely surrounded.
