Chapter 1: El Tigre:
Manny's POV:
I am Manny Rivera, but you know me as El Tigre! Son of the superhero, White Pantera and grandson of the supervillain, El Puma Loco! Anyway, I had a call. "Hello," I asked.
"El Tigre, you are not going to believe this, but I am Eros, God of Love!"
"You're right," I said, "I don't believe it! Prove it!"
"How can I prove it," asks Eros.
"Dang, that's a good point," I said, "okay, so how can I help?"
"Listen, I have been captured by a skeleton and I believe you know him!"
"Can you be specific," I asked, "describe this guy!"
Eros takes a look. "UUUUUUUUUmmmmmmmmm... ugly," says Eros.
I then gasped. "It's El Machete," I said, "he's kind of... my uncle!"
"But how... forget it," says El Machete, "I don't think I want to know."
"Don't worry," I said, "even though I'm still not convinced you're really the God of Love, I'm still coming to save you!"
Eros' POV:
Singer/Chorus: He's galloping over the dusty planes
Even the cacti know his name
If you don't want to die don't cross his path
Otherwise, you will feel his wrath
El Machete! El Machete
Sure shootin', darn tootin', his name is Machete
Gonna bring Eros back to his lair
With his magic rope and his western flair
He's very good at causing pain
And he loves to ride on the choo-choo—
Dirty-dealin', God-stealin'
He's a villain, Machete
He's fast and strong and tall and mean
The foulest skeleton you've ever seen
He'll break your bones to hеar 'em crunch
He likes to еat Pâté for lunch
El Machete, hmm, ye-ye-yeah
El Machete
El Machete, he's-
"Will you stop following me," asks El Machete, "I am tired of you idiots singing about me! It's very annoying!"
"How does one get their own theme song," I asked.
Manny's POV:
I found Machete's lair and I saw someone else sneaking in. There's something familiar about that shape. Oh well.
. . .
I was sneaking through the lair, but...
"Hello Sobrino," says El Machete.
"El Machete," I said. He then grabbed me.
. . .
"What are you up to," I asked.
El Machete then creates an image. I then looked and it's a human woman.
"She was my wife," says El Machete, "the mother of my son, Django. I left years ago, and she has not forgiven me, but with the arrows of Eros, I will change that!"
I then saw that image again. "Were you expecting company," I asked.
"What?" Then something hit him. It was Zoe Aves aka Black Cuervo.
"Black Cuervo," I asked, "what brings you here?"
"What? I came to save Eros too, but for my own reasons!"
"El Tigre, Black Cuervo, both of you, look out," says Eros.
El Machete came at us! I managed to untie myself and the two of us worked together against him. We fought and El Machete was beating us down, but together, we were able to fight back. I then had an idea. "Zoe, we need to use our powers together," I said.
We then combined our powers, and it created an explosion...
. . .
We managed to get out. "Hey, where's Eros," I asked.
"He's a God," says Zoe, "I'm sure he's fine!"
"Hey... thanks," I said.
"I didn't do it for you," says Zoe, "I wanted Eros to help me because... well, it's Valentine's Day and I just broke up with that boy from the Golden Eagle Twins..."
"The guy who doesn't like the word blimp," I asked.
"Yeah, that's him," says Zoe.
I then grabbed her hand and... we shared a kiss.
Eros' POV:
My arrows have been scattered to other parts of the globe and now I must find them before El Machete does!
To Be Continued
