A/N I have been doing a lot of hand writing lately. It's pretty good to do so actually. I mostly do it so I can have a good Idea of what I'm going to put down when I type out the final draft for a chapter, but anyway here's Chapter 46 /Season 2 Episode 23 of EL Tigre the new adventures. Enjoy
EL Tigre the new adventures Season 2 Episode 23 – The red crow gangs riot
"How's he doing?" Frida asked looking at Miranda's uncle Jonathan, as he stepped out of the room and closed the door behind him. He looks at Frida, Manny, Miranda and Ronnie.
"I don't know how he's alive. But he'll make it." Jonathan said giving a small smile.
The three of them let out a big sigh of relief. "WHOOOHOOO! THANK GOD!" Ronnie screamed happily and plopped down on the couch behind her. "But he will need a lot of rest. Boy's got so many scars on his body I can't believe he's even still living." Jonathan said sitting down on his chair.
"He's a tough one alright." Manny said chuckling while looking out the window.
"you kids are all tough. Taking out one of the red crow's members I's pretty impressive."
"Well it's what we do." Frida said smiling proudly.
"I'll go fix you all something to eat." Miranda said heading into the kitchen.
"How long were you trapped in that portrait thingy?" Ronnie asked now sitting upside down on the couch.
"Well…for a few mounts actually. The red crow gang has been here for awhile now. I don't know why they are here…our little town doesn't have anything to offer to them…" Jonathan said gripping arms of his chair.
"That's thugs for you…they have no reason…they just want to make people suffer and get everything that you own." Frida said irritably.
"Has anyone ever seen the leader?" Manny asked.
Jonathan shakes his head no "No, he always stay's in the shadows. But a lot of the members fear him." he said rubbing his chin, remembering the things he's heard from crony's of the red crow gang said. "One thing I do know…and is very crucial you all understand this."
Ronnie sat up properly on the couch, Frida gave Jonathan his full attention and Manny turns away from the window and listens to Jonathan.
"Apparently the leader of the red crow gang is a master of one of the 3 blade styles." Jonathan said slowly.
"The 3 blade styles?" Frida repeated
"Yes. The three blade styles are scared ability's passed down from 3 families of different states. The first is brave blade style, from the state of japan. Know to cut through anything, possessing god like style of swordsmen ship. The 2nd is silent blade style of china. Used for assassinations, stealth, and also close combat if needed." Jonathan explained
"Chio…" Manny whispered
"She did have that ability didn't she?" Frida said looking at Manny.
Jonathan nods "Yes, chio was well known for her quick mastery of silent bade style." He said.
"What's the 3rd?" Ronnie asked anxiously
Jonathan was quite for a moment. It was as if he was hesitant and scared to talk about the 3rd blade style. He lowers his head and put's both his hands together and takes a deep breath. He raises his head and looks at the three of them.
"The 3rd is called the dark blade style." Jonathan said finally.
"Dark blade style?" Frida repeated
"Dark blade style…was made from one of the most evil…inhuman arts created by man. And that art is called the Art of Darkness." Jonathan said with fear is his voice.
Ronnie's eyes widened and she sprung to her feet "A-art of darkness?! Wait you got to be kidding me!" she said terrified
"What's art of darkness?" Manny asked looking from Ronnie to Jonathan.
"Yeah…it sounds really creepy." Frida said her arm.
"There are a total of 5 arts that were created in this world. There is Art of Wind, Art of Water, Art of Earth and Art of Fire. But Art of Darkness was an art that was never meant to exist. Art of Darkness was made by manifest of one's pure evil soul. And once that soul is on the brink of no return to the good heart…it is consumed by darkness. And thus…the art of darkness was created." Jonathan explained.
"Dude…that's crazy…" Frida said holding herself.
"Why would someone put themselves through that for such an evil power?" Manny said clenching his fist.
"Guy's…you don't know how serious this is." Ronnie said serious
"What do you mean?" Frida said looking up at her.
"Art of Darkness is such an evil art that it is forbidden for anyone to practice it!"
"Correct. Anyone caught, or reported of practicing Art of Darkness will be sent to execution of the spot." Jonathan explained
"Damn." Manny said shocked
"There is only one person that mastered Art of Darkness. And he is currently missing." Jonathan said.
"WHAT?!" Manny and Frida said completely shocked "You mean…they haven't defeated or caught him?" Manny shouted.
"Defeated yes…but captured no." Jonathan said looking at Manny and Frida. "The united nation of hero's is currently looking for him. It was only because of the actions of the leader of Red crow gang that they know that he's out there. It was only by his power that he is able to acquire the dark blade style."
"He knows where the guy is?" Manny asked.
"That's a possibility."
The three of them looked at each other. Everyone was in silence for awhile till Miranda walked into the room holding a large pan of food and chocolate chip cookies, and drinks.
"Uh…is everyone alright?" Miranda asked sitting the pan on the table.
"Uh yeah…everything's fine." Frida said smiling.
"oooh cookies!" Ronnie said grabbing hers and eating it.
"Chocolate is defiantly what I need right now." Frida said taking one and eating it.
Manny took his and eats it in one bite.
"I'm going to go check on Marcus." Miranda said heading to Marcus room. She opened the door and walked in. Marcus was lying in bed. He looked peaceful as he slept. His face was calm and showed no sign of pain.
Miranda looked over him. She smiled happily knowing that he's alright. Miranda noticed something. Marcus eyes were shuttering. Miranda grabbed a chair that was in the room and sat in it. As Marcus eyes shuttered, a tear slid out.
"He's…crying?" Miranda thought. Then tears started coming out both his eyes quickly.
"Mom…dad…no…please," Marcus whispered
Miranda stared at Marcus. Miranda lifted her hand slowly, sending it towards Marcus eyes.
"I'm sorry…I'm sorry…I…couldn't." Marcus continued on, tears rushing down from his eyes.
"Marcus…" Miranda whispered sadly. Miranda caught one of Marcus tears and wiped it off with her finger. Marcus snapped his eyes open and grabbed Miranda's hand gripping it. Miranda grasped and winches in pain to Marcus grip.
"You…" Marcus said letting go "Sorry…you startled me…"
"It's ok." Miranda said rubbing her wrist. "I came to check up on you…to make sure you're sleeping well."
"Oh…" Marcus wipes his eyes and looks at his hand "huh?"
"You were crying…"
Marcus then remembered the dream he had about his mom and dad…and then end of the dream that woke him up.
"What were you dreaming about?" Miranda asked.
Marcus looked out the window, the moonlight shining upon both of them in the room. Marcus grips his sheets gently and shook his head.
"Nothing…" Marcus said
"…uh" Miranda looks at them. She didn't know if not to tell him that he was saying the names of mom and dad in his sleep. But she decided and said "Ok…I have food in the other room if yo-"
"No…I'm not really hungry…maybe later." Marcus responded.
"Umm alright…" Miranda said sitting up from her seat "Well…it'll be downstairs waiting for you. There's also some cookie's too."
"Thanks." Marcus said. Not looking at her and just keeps staring out the window.
"Well…sleep well." Miranda said closing the door behind her and heading back to the other room. Ronnie was drinking her juice when she see's Miranda coming back to the room.
"Is he ok?" Ronnie asked.
Miranda nods "Yeah he's alright. Just needs more rest." She said sitting down on the couch.
"How long do you think he'll be out?" Frida asked
"With those wounds for awhile," Jonathan said yawning "it'll be awhile before they heal."
"Nah…I doubt it. Marcus is a very fast healer." Manny said smiling. Manny stared out at the town through the window. Black smoke started coming out from a building in town.
"Hey…is that?" Frida said getting to her feet.
A loud explosion was made shaking Miranda's whole house.
"W-What the hell?!" Manny said springing from his seat.
"T-that came from town!" Miranda said shocked.
Screams and shouts were coming from outside of Miranda's home. People were running down the street, hurrying into the nearest shelter quickly as possible. Soon laughter was heard and sounds window's getting shattered.
Jonathan ran to the window and stared out. Seeing a group of the red crow gang setting fire to homes, and destroying anything they see.
"It's the red crow!" Jonathan said.
"Those bastards!" Manny said heading for the door. "Guy's come on! We got to stop this!"
"Right!" Ronnie and Frida said nodding.
"H-Hey, wait up!" Marcus said coming out of the room while holding his wounds.
"Marcus what are you doing?!" Ronnie said worriedly
"I know you aren't trying to go out there with how injured you are!" Frida said glaring at him.
"What are you talking about? I'm fine!" Marcus said.
"Listen boy. You aren't fit to go anywhere. You move at all out there and you'll reopen you're wounds. That hole in your stomach wasn't so easy to stitch up." Jonathan said calmly.
"Damn it…" Marcus said lowering his head.
"Will be ok, you just rest up. You've earned it!" Manny said smiling.
"Come on we need to go!" Ronnie said putting on her ring and transform's. She then opens the door and speeds out the house.
"Please Marcus…rest." Frida said heading out the house.
"Seriously…will be fine, this will be over before you know it!" Manny said spinning his belt and transforming into EL Tigre then dashes out the house.
Marcus lets out a small sigh and sits on the couch. He looks at the table seeing his plate of chocolate chip cookies.
"Thank you all." Miranda said. Marcus looks at her. "You're putting your lives on the line to help our town. Thank you."
Marcus smiles and chuckles "It's no problem at all." He said softly.
"I never got your name." Jonathan said looking at Marcus.
"Marcus Dupree." Marcus said looking at Jonathan.
"Dupree?" Jonathan repeated "You're mother and father. Their names were Eger Dupree and Brenda Johnson right?"
Marcus stared at Jonathan. He never met anyone else who knew his parents before.
"You knew my parents?" Marcus asked.
"Not knew…heard."
Marcus looked at him and lies back closing his eyes. "I see." He said
"I'm sorry to bring it up out of the blue like that. My apologies," Jonathan said
"It's no problem. Don't worry about it." Marcus said waving him down.
"But I have to ask. Where did you go?" Jonathan asked.
Marcus opened his eyes. He stared at Jonathan "Sorry…I can't really say." He said.
Jonathan nods "I understand. Again I apologize for the questions. It must seem like I'm interrogating you."
Marcus laughed a bit "it's no problem at all sir."
In town
A women who is holding her child ran down the street panting and crying. Her child was sobbing quietly in fear.
"AHAHAH! COME ON LADY THERE"S NOTHING TO BE SCARED OF! COME HERE!" Shouted a member of the red crow gang. The women tripped, she shifted her body over so she could fall on her back to protect her child.
"Stay back!" The women shouted. "LEAVE US ALONE!"
"All we want to do is show our gratitude to you for all the stuff you did for us!" The red crow gang member said holding up his axe. The women screamed and closed her eyes.
The red crow gang member was punched in the face and sent flying into a wall.
The women opened her eyes and Ronnie was standing over her.
"Are you ok mam?" Ronnie said helping her up.
"Y-yes…I'm ok." She said holding her child and rubbing her head "Thank you so much."
"Quickly, get to safety everything's going to be ok." Ronnie said smiling.
"Yes. Thank you." The women said and she ran off.
"Ronnie is everything ok?" Frida said running over to her huffing and puffing.
"Yeah, I just helped someone. What about you?"
"I escorted some town folk to somewhere safe! I don't know where Manny ran off too though. We need to go find him!" Frida said determined. Ronnie nodded, but the second frida turned around there were a huge pare of glowing red eyes staring at the both of them. Ronnie and Frida stopped dead in her tracks and stared at the red eyes.
"So these are the little rescuers of merry town?"
The creature slowly stepped out the shadows. Ronnie and frida looked on in horror as they saw, a large scaled creature with the head of a tiger, and the body of a salamander.
"What the hell?" Ronnie said. He looked up at the person who was riding it. Anthony sat on top of the hybrid creature and he smirked, looking down at Ronnie and Frida.
"I was actually expecting more intimidating looking people. But it's just a bunch of cocky kids." Anthony said rubbing his hairy fur covered arm.
"What the hell are you supposed to be?" Frida said pointing at Anthony.
"Names Anthony you blue haired little girl. King of animals, even the hybrids I made kneels and listens to me."
"You made that creature that attacked my sisters?!" Frida said gritting her teeth and clenching her fist.
"You mean that huge tentacle like one? Ahh yeah it was pretty cool. It had wings and everything." Anthony said smiling happily.
"You son of a bitch…I'm GOING TO KNOCK EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU"RE TEETH OUT OF YOU"RE MOUTH!"
"Is that right?" Anthony said showing his fangs. The creature he was riding growled and was drooling.
"And I'll knock out that stupid hybrid creature out of here too!" Ronnie said cracking her knuckles.
Across the street from where they were a loud explosion was made, and then came 2 more that shook the ground below their feet. Houses were burning down and falling apart.
"You cruel bastards!" Frida screamed.
"What's the problem? We used up this town as much as we can. Now we don't need it." Anthony said shrugging.
Ronnie glared at Anthony and he speeds at him and throws a quick punch at Anthony. Anthony was knocked off the creature and sent rolling on the ground. Anthony got to his feet and smirked.
"Got a good right hook on ya huh?" Anthony said as his eyes became primal.
Frida charged in and kneed Anthony in the mouth and uppercuts him in the jaw sending him back flipping in the air. The creature leaped in the air and caught Anthony and landed on its feet.
"Ah…good," Anthony said wiping the blood off his mouth.
"What's so good about getting your ass kicked?" Frida said glaring at Anthony.
"I won't have to hold back. You little girl's aren't pushovers I know that for sure. And especially you…" Anthony said pointing at Ronnie.
Ronnie raised an eyebrow.
"You're the new speed witch right? I didn't think they would pass down that ring to a reckless little girl. But I guess since you're family is so screwed up I bet it was hard finding someone to pass the ring down too."
Ronnie's eyes winded and she clenches her fist "What did you just say?" she said with her voice shuttering.
"Ronnie?" Frida whispered over to her.
"You heard me. What did you think I didn't know…I was very interested in the rings incredible power so I decided to do some digging, and I found out some interesting things about you…"Ronnie" "
Ronnie gritted her teeth and her hands were trembling. "You…you son of a bitch…"
"How's daddy Ronnie?"
Ronnie lost it. Tears of anger were in her eyes and she zips at Anthony. Anthony held up his hands and blocked Ronnie attack. The shockwave from the attack went through Anthony, taking off part of the dirt road behind him.
"Now things are interesting." Anthony said licking his lips.
"Ronnie!" Frida said holding her hand out. Frida looked up seeing a large tail falling towards her. She leaps out the way avoiding it. The hybrid creature that Anthony was riding smirked at Frida grinning.
"Damn it…" Frida said sweating.
Elsewhere in Merry town
Manny slashes and cuts down members of the red crow gang as he runs by. He looks all over the town to see if there were any more townsfolk in the area. He looks into homes, restraints, and small bars. He walks to the side of the streets and sighs in relief.
"Well I guess everyone's out." Manny said happily. The wind blew furiously behind Manny. Chairs and objects that were outside were knocked to the ground and started sliding.
"The wind is pretty aggressive tonight is it?"
Manny quickly turned around. There he was. Spiky long red hair with purple streaks, purple eyeliner that went from his eyes down to his cheeks, pale skin with purple streaks across his body and up his arms, red eyes, and dark red pants and shoes.
"The moon is full. You know…when it comes to a full moon. It brings out the beast in me. Make's me lust for something…"
Manny stands there. Victor turns his attention away from the moon and looks at Manny directly into his eyes. "Don't you agree?" he said with calm smile.
"Are you?" Manny whispered.
Victor chuckled "Yes I am. My name is Victor Crow, leader and founder of the red crow gang. It's a pleasure to meet you EL Tigre."
Manny glared at him "You take over this town and then you want to destroy it?! And you're killing innocent lives too?!"
"We are just…showing gratitude, nothing wrong with that right?"
Manny extends his claws "I'll give you one chance…" he threatened.
Victor crow lifted his arm.
Manny didn't waste time. He charged at victor hopes in the air and slashes at Victor. Manny's hands went right through Victor's body. "What?" Manny said confused. Manny landed on his feet and quickly turned around. Victor wasn't there.
"Rude." Victor whispered
Manny turned back around and he was kicked across the face and knocked to the ground. Victor grasped Manny's head and lifted him into the air. Manny glared and kicked Victor in the face making his head jolt back.
"Feisty little cat aren't ya?" Victor let's Manny go and kicks him in the gut. Sending Manny's flying forward into the air and crashing into a nearby house.
"Oww…" Manny said rubbing the back of his head.
"And now…" Victor said. He raised his hand into the air. Black aura flowed around his hand. It was like black smoke was fuming off his hand. The black aura started to swirl around his hand and it transformed into a pure black sword of dark aura.
"Dark blade style," Victor said smirking. The aura around Victor's arm erupted like a volcano. The dark aura expanded and grew longer and longer. "Falling abyss cut!"
Victor crow slashed his hand down. The giant blade of darkness falls to the ground. The entire town shook as If an earthquake hit. The blade sliced through the ground making a large cut mark, and also sliced through the house Manny was in.
"What the heck was that?!" Frida screamed
"That came from where Manny was!" Ronnie said concerned
"Then that kids going to die…" Anthony said grinning "he won' last 5 minutes against our boss."
The darkness was leaking out of the ground where and covering the area with dark aura fog.
Victor grins and licks his arm "Magnificent." He said taking in a deep breath and turning around.
"Whoa…that was close." Manny said hanging on a nearby tree. "So…that's the dark blade style…"
"You're still alive?" Victor said staring at Manny.
"Yeah it's pretty hard to get rid of me." Manny said chuckling and rubbing the back of his head.
"Is that so?" Victor said eyeing down Manny "Well…let's see…how long you can survive."
Manny stood there. He glares at Victor and extended his claws. The moonlight shined upons them. Victor smirked and his arm was being covered in pure black dark aura.
"Well…shall we?"
