EL Tigre the New Adventures Season 2 Episode 16 – The tiger and the dragon part 2
Noriko stood there with her fierce narrowed eyes staring at Manny and Marcus. Alistair smirked as he keeps his eye on Manny. Manny extends his claws and a bit of sweat trickled down his face.
"Scared little boy?" Alistair asked. Taking one step forward
"Ha…you wish." Manny said smirking. "Like I'm really going to be afraid of a ghost like you!"
Alistair grins and says "Magnificent." He then looked up. "Now…Art of water…"
Manny and Marcus looked to see a huge ball of water floating above them.
"WHAT?! When in the hell did he do that?!" Manny said confused
Alistair blew a breath of air at the large ball of water. The large ball of water quickly froze and turned into a large ball of solid ice. "Ice bomb!" Alistair shouted. And the large ball of ice fell down near Manny and Marcus.
"MOVE!" Marcus screamed and he and Manny hopped out the way as the ball of ice crashes down to the ground shatter into many pieces of large ice.
Marcus turned his head to the right seeing Noriko right in front of him wielding her sword and gripping it. She swings, Marcus in time, whipped out his sword and blocks. Their blades making a loud Klang! As they collide.
"Impressive…there's more to you than meets the eye is there?" Noriko whispered.
"Heh…you thought we were easy bait to kill?" Marcus said smirking.
"I don't underestimate my opponents. But I sure do know how to give them hell."
Noriko uses her right hand to make a pike formed rock shoot out on Marcus left side. Marcus quickly back stepped away only getting a small cut on his stomach. Noriko continued her assault by swinging her katana in immense speed. Marcus blocks her attacks and thrust his katana three times at her. Noriko easily dodges Marcus thrust by swaying to the left and right. They clashed with their katana's again; sparks could be seen flying off their blades.
"You are better than I expected." Noriko said smiling "This is fun."
"heh…I hate to say it but I'm actually enjoying myself a little too." Marcus said smirking "It's not every day I meet someone who's good with a sword."
"Thank you for the compliment. But now I'm going to end this." Noriko said as she kicked Marcus in the stomach knocking him to the ground.
"Art of Earth! MUD TRAP!" Noriko screamed as mud covered Marcus entire body as it turns to solid rock.
"AH! Goddamn it!" Marcus said struggling to get free.
"Nah…allow me to do the honor of cutting off that little head of yours." Noriko said licking her sword
Marcus chuckles and smiles "Sorry, but you're not going to kill me." Cracks formed around the mud trap the Noriko formed and then burst of flames surrounded the area where Marcus was standing.
Noriko covered her eyes with her arm due to the light from Marcus fire. She slowly lowers her arm down and looks at Marcus.
"Fire?" Noriko said surprised, and then she smirked "I knew there was more to you then you sharp swordsmanship."
Marcus flicks his hand and fire went up his arm "I wanted to surprise you in special way. I thought it would be pretty cool."
Noriko chuckled and smirked "Well I am surprised…fire vs earth. I'm going to enjoy this."
"Won't be enjoying it when you're burned to ash," Marcus said glaring at her and he pointed his fingers at her as if he was holding a gun.
"ART OF FIRE! FLAME GUN," Marcus shouted and shoots of stream of strong fire pellets at Noriko.
Noriko slams her fist to the ground making a large solid wall appear in front of her blocking Marcus fire pellets. "Behind you," Marcus whispered gripping his sword. Noriko turned around seeing Marcus with her eyes widened.
"ART OF FIRE!" Marcus said as he infuses his sword with fire "SCORCHING BLADE!" he whips out his sword swinging slices it down at Noriko. Noriko's entire body turned into rock and she sinks down into the earth below.
Marcus sword hit the ground. a power jet stream of fire burned and broke the ground and hit a tree, instantly setting it on fire.
"Damn…art of earth abilities…" Marcus said looking around the area.
"Amazing isn't it? When you learn art of earth you practically are everything." Noriko said, her voice echoing around the area.
Marcus grins "True, Art of Earth is one hell of Art. But," Marcus said with red hot fire burning on his hands "You can't hide from me...no matter where you are." Marcus punches the ground. A large burning creator appears around the area.
Noriko was sent flying out the ground, her white cloak was covered in small fires and she landed with her feet on a brick wall.
"Why you…" Noriko snarled glaring at Marcus as he stands in the circle fire. Marcus looked up at her with big smile on his face.
"What's wrong? A little fire won't hurt you that bad will it?" Marcus said with his holding his sword.
Alistair looked in the distance seeing the smoke from Marcus fire.
"My my…looks like you're friend is giving Noriko a hard time." He said rubbing the back of his head
Manny smiled "You thought it would be easy huh? Trying to take us out is not going to be easy." He extended his claws.
Alistair smiled "Actually I thought it would be easy. Since all the others have been so easy to deal with I thought you two would be a cake walk. But I should know better." He said shrugging.
Manny narrows his eyes at him "Just what the hell are you all doing? Using all these people and children to do this stupid work, and what's with that glowing thing in the middle?"
"My you ask a lot of questions. But it's not like I'm actually going to tell you. It's a secret." Alistair said chuckling "it's our business not yours."
Manny glared "so I'm going to have to beat it out of you?"
Alistair smirked "If you can that is…great EL Tigre."
Manny quickly launched grappling hook hand Alistair; Alistair easily catches Manny's grappling hook. "neat." He said smiling.
Manny retracts his grappling hook hand and he launches forward, claws out and he slashes at Alistair. Alistair ducked and grabs Manny by his heel and spins him around tosses Manny to the ground.
"Damn it." Manny said getting to his feet and he charges at him again Manny extends his claws and slashes at Alistair. Alistair moves to the left and right avoiding Manny's attacks.
"Pretty careless aren't you EL Tigre?" Alistair said catching Manny's arm and grips it tightly. Manny winched to Alistair's grip and arches his other hand
"Rivera, Tiger Pistol!" Manny screamed launching his grappling hook hand right into Alistair face. Alistair jolts his head back, he slowly moves his forward. His face had the fist print from Manny's grappling hook arm.
"Mm…not bad, I actually felt that a little. It was like getting stung by a mosquito." Alistair said scratching his face with his finger.
Manny grits his teeth and narrows his eyes at him.
"You've actually just inspired a new move for me to use." Alistair said as swashes water around in his mouth and spits it at Manny stomach. Manny felt as if he was hit in the stomach by sledge hammer. Manny coughed up blood and fell to his knees.
"I can change the power of how hard my water hits. I can do it any type of way I want it too." Alistair explained. "Just like my pin point blast." He points his finger at Manny and fires another pin point blast at Manny piercing through his shoulder.
Manny screamed in pain and fell to the ground. Alistair chuckled and smirked. HE walked over to Manny and kicked in the face sending him rolling on the ground.
"I guess I hyped you too much…you being the next EL tigre and all. if I were your father I would be disappointed and ashamed." Alistair said shrugging.
"Shut up! You don't know anything about the Rivera family!" Manny shouted wiping the blood from his mouth. "So stop acting like you do!"
Alistair smiled "How are you supposed to live up as a brave hero? When you can't even beat someone like me?" he said seriously, glaring at Manny. "And do you want to know something?"
Alistair walked up to Manny and gripped him by his shirt "I'm a low ranked art of water user." He whispered
"W-what?" Manny said shocked.
"You've been so cooped up in Miracle city fighting the same Villain over and over again you can barley handle anyone outside of Miracle city. Doesn't you're father teach you anything?" Alistair asked looking dead into Manny's eyes.
"Shut up…" Manny said through his teeth glaring at Alistair.
"I'm starting to think that maybe…you're too weak and idiotic to learn anything."
Noriko took off her white robe. She was wearing a fighting tape around her body. She hops off the wall and landed on the ground.
"I like what you're wearing." Marcus said smiling "Goes with that fierce attitude you got there."
"Well thank you." Noriko said smirking "It'll be the last thing you see when I kill you."
Marcus smirked and pointed his sword at Noriko.
Noriko stared at Marcus for a moment and then looks off to the direction where Manny and Alistair are.
"May I ask you a question?" Noriko said.
"Sure I guess. What is it?" Marcus said
"Someone such as you, practically an expert in Art of fire and an without a doubt a master swordsmen Is hanging around someone such as that EL Tigre boy."
"Is there something wrong with that? What are you trying to get at?" Marcus asked lowering his sword.
"I'm saying you're better that your better than this. The second I saw that boy I knew he was nothing more than sorry excuse for a fighter. I know all about the EL tigre powers and how strong they are. He'll never master the belts full potential…"
Marcus stood there, the shadows hiding his eyes and his hands trembling.
"Team with us…and ditch the Rivera boy. Whatever contract you have with Miracle city or whatever just toss it in the trash." Noriko said smirking and holding out her hand to Marcus.
Marcus clenches his teeth and grips his sword, veins popping up around his arm and hand. "You bitch…" he whispered
"Excuse me?" Noriko said raising an eyebrow.
Marcus opened his eyes, his akuma no me activated.
Noriko stares at Marcus with mouth have open. Before she knew it Marcus was right under her, his sword heading straight for her neck. Noriko quickly makes a wall shield blocking Marcus sword attack. But it wasn't strong enough. The Minute Marcus sword hit Noriko's shield it was completely destroyed and Noriko was sent rolling on the ground.
"How dare you disrespect my friend…" Marcus said glaring at Noriko, his akuma no me was glowing faintly.
"His eyes…" Noriko thought in her head.
"Manny Rivera…is one of strongest people I know…he might not look it now but he is strong! You dare say he isn't…you don't know anything about him! SO STOP TALKING LIKE YOU DO YOU STUPID SKANK!"
Noriko just stared blankly at Marcus at got to her feet and picks up her sword.
"Emotions…can get you killed." Noriko darkly "How could someone like you even want to be around such weaklings anyway?"
"Shut your mouth. As I said you don't know anything about me or Manny…besides." Marcus said with fire raging in his right hand. "There are people I care about and I would give my life up to protect them in a heartbeat."
"Hmph…now…where were we?"
"Yeah…I still don't know much about my EL Tigre powers…and I am an idiot…" Manny said clenching his fist. He quickly slugs Alistair in the face making fall back and bounce off the ground.
"You think I'm just going to stand her and let you run you're damn mouth all freaking day..." Manny said getting to his feet and panting. "I'm going to get stronger…even stronger the first EL Tigre!"
Alistair chuckled and lies up. "I see…you'll have to get by me first little man…"
"Bring it!" Manny said glaring at Alistair. Alistair hops to his feet and holds his hands in front of him. A ball of water started to form and he tosses it into the air. It slowly started to form into a large ball of water like when Manny saw him the first time.
"What is this? The same attack from last time?" Manny said confused
"Heh…" Alistair held his hand up at the large ball of water.
"Now…RAIN!"
Heavy drops of water started falling out of the large ball of water in the sky.
"Hahaha…now the area is mine to control." Alistair said smirking and he narrows his eyes at Manny. The water below Manny wraps around his ankles and locks him in.
"HEY! WHAT THE HECK?!" Manny said moving around trying to get free.
"Now, Art of Water! Rampaging sharks!" Alistair shouted clapping his hands together, a whirl pool spun around the left and right side of Alistair, they lunged out the whirl pools and strike at Manny. Water splashed all over the place as if someone did a cannon ball in a pool.
Manny coughed up water and fell to his hands in knees. "Damn it…it felt like I just got hit by a truck…" Manny said putting his hands on his ribs.
"hehehe…I make sure fusing my own ki energy into Art of water ability's…making my attacks hit harder." Alistair explained. "Want some more?"
More sharks came out from the water and heads towards Manny striking him directly.
Manny fell flat on his stomach. Blood started coming out of his mouth and his eyes were have way open. Manny's hand twitched as he tries to gather enough strength to get to his feet.
Alistair walked over to Manny and looked down at him.
"Well…it seems I got carried away." Alistair said scratching his head.
"….I…I can't….lose…" Manny said barley as forms his hand into a fist.
"Oh! Still alive are we?"
The water from Alistair's large ball of Water in the sky hits against Manny's face. He was slowly losing consciousness.
"Well…I have to admit…you did last longer than the others." Alistair said kneels down at Manny and grips him by his head pulling him up. "Still have enough strength to fight EL Tigre?"
All Manny could hear were faint sounds of Alistair's voice. Manny closed his eyes.
"So…are you that willing to give up? I guess he was right…you aren't strong enough to master the full power of the EL Tigre belt."
"Huh?" Manny said as he awoke; he was surrounded by a green lit room. And in front of him, was a large gate with purple writing symbols all over it.
"You've been here before actually. It didn't look like this…That Tetsuo bastard is to blame."
The voice that was speaking to Manny was awfully deep. And it echoed across the room.
"Who…Who are you? And where am I?" Manny said looking from left to right.
Within the gate, it opens its eyes. The green light from its eyes shined at Manny. Manny took a little step back.
"I remember you…I dreamed about you…" Manny said, his voice trembling.
"Why are you so scared…you should know who I am…you summoned me against Sartana of the dead 2 years ago."
Manny stared at green eyes. He did remember fighting against Sartana and using one of the EL Tigre belts strongest powers. But after that…
"And let's not forget Mob town…were I completely took over."
"You're…You're the ancient Tiger Spirit?!" Manny shouted pointing his finger at him.
The tiger spirit growled "Don't yell so loud…" The tiger groaned "it's bad enough I can't move around like I use to being trapped in this seal."
"How…How can I talk to you? I mean I didn't even know I could do that." Manny said cross his arms and thinking. "I didn't even know you could talk."
"There are many things you don't know about the EL Tigre belt. But looking at things now it won't matter, you are on the verge of death." The tiger spirit said.
"W-WHAT?! NO WAY! I CAN"T DIE YET!" Manny said panicking.
"Humph…after all that talk, "I'm going to be stronger than the first EL Tigre" Bull crap. If you can't beat this guy then you won't even be anywhere stronger than the first EL Tigre."
"It's just…I never-"
"No excuses!" The tiger spirit roared "Listen well. I'll help you out this once…"
"How can you help me? When you're sealed up like this?" Manny asked.
"Yes I am sealed up, but the only thing I can do is give you a portion of my power. He made this seal so you won't use the full extent of the EL Tigre belt's power like back in mob town." The tiger spirit explained "Once it's used the seal will start rejecting the power you're getting and return it back to me."
"How long can I last?" Manny asked quickly
"Whenever the seal starts acting up, it could be immediately after you get the portion of my power."
"The seal is that strong you can't even break it?" Manny asked a bit surprised
"It was pretty much designed for me. That Tetsuo guy is one smart man." The Tiger spirit said closing his eyes. "It's time. You better try and end this fight fast. Because this is absolutely the last time I'll ever help you."
"W-Wait a minute! How I can I fully master the EL Tigre belt?! What powers can I obtain from it?! How strong will I be?!" Manny asked holding his hand out as everything around started to fade.
"Manny Rivera, new owner of the EL Tigre belt, you must find out the secrets of witch this belt holds. You must explore its powers. Learn to Obtain them. Till then…this is farewell."
Everything went black. And then…Manny felt a surge of energy go through his body. The pain he was feeling quickly went away. His ribs were completely healed. He felt stronger…faster. He felt as if he could do anything.
"Well then…" Alistair picks Manny by the front of his shirt and points his finger at Manny's head with his other hand "It was a nice fight while it lasted."
Manny grips Alistair's wrist and squeezes it tightly. Alistair flinches a little and try's to pull away.
"What? Let go…" Alistair said struggling harder and harder to get away.
Green aura flowed around Manny's body. Manny's eyes were glowing green and his teeth were getting sharper. Alistair looked at Manny as his eyes widened.
"Art of Water! Pin poi-."
SMACK!
Manny hit Alistair in the mouth, a few teeth and blood left Alistair's mouth as he flew through air and smashed through three trees.
"Whoa…Whoa…" Manny looked at his hands. It was awhile since he felt the power of the ancient tiger spirit. The surge of energy coursed through his veins and body.
"So…this is the power of the EL Tigre belt…and it's only a portion of it…" Manny said amazed. "And I'm in control of it…" Purple static struck around Manny and he held his stomach and groaned.
"Damn…this seals already acting up," Manny said wincing. "I got get this over with."
Alistair came walking back on to the battlefield. His nose was leaking with blood and so was his mouth.
"You shouldn't have done that…now I'm mad…" Alistair said grimly.
Manny glared at Alistair. And with one extension of Manny's claws, his aura flashed around him, he let out a fierce roar that echoed across terra town.
Alistair eyes widened to sigh of Manny's new power. "Where…Where the hell did this come from?" he said breathlessly.
Marcus looked from a far with his akuma no me. All he could see was green aura flashing around the area Manny was at. "Is that Manny?" he said shocked. But then a grin grew across Marcus face.
"Nice…now that's what I'm talking about Manny," Marcus said smiling
"Hmm…I guess I was wrong about him." Noriko said rubbing her chin.
"It won't be long before you find your water boy in pool of his own blood. I better finish this fight off first and then go watch Manny kick the hell out of Alistair."
Noriko stared at Marcus, she slowly takes out her sword and cracks started forming around the ground.
"You really think you're going to win this aren't you? You are VERY mistaken." Noriko said as earth below her cracked and huge chunks of rock floated around Noriko.
Noriko raised her hand. A large fist burst from the ground the size of tall building and headed towards Marcus. Marcus hopes in the air and swings his sword, cutting huge hand rock in two. More and came out the ground and lunched.
Fire formed around Marcus leg "ART OF FIRE! FLAMING TEMPEST KICK!" Marcus said swinging his leg and launching a sword like fire slash at the hand rocks that Noriko launched. It cut right through and it was headed for Noriko.
Noriko formed a protective earth shield around her entire body. Marcus attack slashed through Noriko protective earth shield completely destroying it. But she was nowhere to be seen.
"Damn it. She disappeared again?" Marcus said landing on the ground. The second he did Noriko's hands burst from the ground grabbing Marcus by both his ankles and drags him down into the ground.
Noriko forms both her hands into fist and punched Marcus rapidly and hard in the stomach and face. Noriko's punches were so powerful it shook the area around them, breaking apart the surface above them.
Noriko uppercuts Marcus in the jaw sending him out of the ground and back to surface. He lands on the ground and quickly gets on knee.
"Shit…" Marcus said wiping some blood from his mouth
Noriko charges at Marcus gripping her katana and swings down at him. Marcus quickly grasp his sword and blocks Noriko's attack. As their swords power struggled they met eyes and glared.
"Art of Fire," Marcus began "BLAZE OF GLORY!"
Noriko quickly hopped back as Marcus breathed a wave of scorching flames out of his mouth.
Marcus got to his feet and spits some blood out of his mouth on the ground.
"Damn, you pack of hell of a punch you know that?" Marcus said grinning.
"What's wrong? Can't take a punch?" Noriko asked.
"Oh I can take a punch pretty well no need to worry about me." Marcus said darkly
"That's good to here." Noriko said smirking "this fight's gone long enough…shall we end it?"
"You read my mind." Marcus sheathes his sword and gets into a peculiar stance.
Then that's where Noriko realized. Her eyes winded as he stared at Marcus.
"Now I know…You're eyes…that's stance…" Noriko whispered.
"You're the devil child…."
