Author's Note: This story is just a One-Shot, so please don't expect anything serious from it. It will also be the first story I will have ever uploaded on this site, so hurray~ Just expanding and thinking back on that meme parody version of Dora doing the incantation that Megumi used for summoning Mahoraga. Saw it on YouTube and wanted to expand on it more.
Also, I do not speak Spanish so I'm just using google translations. Just want to be honest. That's all. My reason for the story? I just wanted to try out my skills in typing out a story. Let me know if I did good or not. Thank you.
{One-Shot: Dora's Sacred Treasure}
Dora, a classed Grade 2 Jujutsu Sorcerer, was staring at the stranger, who managed to defeat Dagon, the suspected unregistered Special Grade Cursed Spirit.
Not only that, but on his own turf too. Dora and the others could only watch as the unknown man shuffled back and forth with Dagon on both land and sea within his domain.
And right now, in the streets of Shibuya, separated from her comrades, Dora was facing the stranger alone.
"It seems like I'm in a jam. Hahaha." Dora smiled nervously, gripping the straps of Backpack, who was also silent due to the pressure.
The stranger said nothing at all this whole time. He merely stood in place under a traffic light. His cold eyes locked on the explorer in pink and orange. His body twitched which caused Dora to take a few steps back.
But other than that, nothing happened. He was still staring.
Dora bit her lips, her hair matted against her forehead due to sweat. Her legs were shaking out of panic. She could feel her corazón beating like never before. His speed was incredible... probably faster or just as fast as Speedy Gonzales, the mouse who runs through the streets, leaving dust in his wake for the quest of finding the legendary Five-Hole Cheddar Cheese. His strength was also dangerous, too much for a little chica like her to handle.
So, that brings up the question. What should she do? She can't possibly outrun the man whose speed surpasses that of even the bravest of illegal immigrants who snuck past the border.
"D-Dora." behind her, Backpack stuttered. His big eyes looking around in fear. "What are we..."
"Don't worry." Dora gave a confident smile, that didn't quite reach her eyes, before stroking Backpack's straps. "I'll think of something. You just rest up, okay?"
"Mmm." Backpack muttered.
Seeing that the stranger wasn't doing anything, Dora let out an innocent childish smile. "Wow. Look at the time." she gasped, staring down at her watchless wrist. She bowed to the man. "Gracias for saving me and my friends! I really appreciate the help you offered. But I really must go now. My Papá y mamá are waiting for me back home. Bye." with that, she turned around only to freeze at the sight of the man walking on the opposite side of her, strolling across the walkway.
"W-When did he..." she turned, yet again. Just like before, there he was.
The stranger just glanced at her, his eyes never blinking during his walk.
Tap Tap Tap Tap. His foot went.
He's so fast. I can't even sense his cursed energy. Wait. Does he even have cursed energy? The way he moves... reminds me of sénior-Maki. Dora twitched. She suddenly raised her hand up, her face giddy like an elementary school student.
"Hola, mi nombre es Dora. What's your name?" Dora chirped.
At this, the stranger blinked. He tilted his head. That language... why does it sound so familiar? "Toji..." he answered, stopping at a corner of the street.
"Ah. Sénior-Toji." Dora clapped. "That's a lovely name for a lovely man. W-What do you do for a living? I like growing flowers and rescuing animals." her mouth was straight, but her eyes were looking around crazily for an escape route.
"Oh. Me? I like killing sorcerers."
Dora flinched.
"I killed many of them for a quick buck. Be it men, woman, or... children."
Dora gasped.
"I also like to eat pork, or hunt down animals for a meal or just the heck of it."
Dora was silent. Anymore of this and she was going to débil. "Hurt children? B-But surely a good man like yourself wouldn't do something like that."
Apparently, her response was the wrong choice, the man named Toji was bending slightly, aiming the sharp point of the piece of Nunchaku which he used against that Cursed Spirit born from the fear people had of the Sea.
"Dora..." Backpack muttered.
Dora was shivering in her pretty little botas moradas. She gave a hopeful smile. "You... You wouldn't hurt a little girl like me, would you?"
Toji smirked.
Yup. That was all she needed.
Quickly, she raised her hands and formed a bug shape pattern. "Enjambre de langostas!" out from the shadows, a swarm of locusts jumped out, blocking Toji's sight of Dora.
Under and hidden away in the swarm, Dora widened her eyes when she felt a familiar cursed energy signature flaring. That's... Sukuna?! Diego. What happened on your end?! Go Diego Go!
"Ay, caramba!" Dora squealed, running through the swarm with her shaking legs. "This was not what I signed up for on my application when I crossed the border!"
She nearly peed herself when an arm struck through the swarm, almost piercing her with the weapon he's holding.
Nearly tripping, the spirit of the Mexican and Spanish bloodlines awakened in her, she was squealing noisily as she made a run for it. "Please, my immigrant ancestors. Lend me your running skills to make my legs volar like the wind!"
The swarm, sensing that their caster was in danger, multiplied more. Covering the streets in sight as their organs created high pitched sounds, in order to hide the sound of Dora's footsteps as she made her escape.
"Go Dora Go! Ay, caramba! Ay dios mío. Despiértame de este sueño~" Dora made a turn, using her explorer skills to jump over some fences and entering an abandoned warehouse facility.
She paused to stare at the audience. "Do you guys see the madman? Madman means Loco in Spanish. Can you say, Loco?" getting an answer, she smiled in relief. Trusting her audience. "You don't see him? Excelente! But just in case, let's keep running together! Onward together. Our great escape!"
With her audience's loyalty, she trusts them, after all they wouldn't lie to her. But just in case, she didn't stop, her legs kept running.
"Dora! To your left!" Backpack yelled out with scared eyes.
Dora jumped in her spot. Her audience lied to her? Gasp. It was because she was Spanish in a Mexico-setting with Latino friends, was it?!
Well. There was no choice. "Hey, Pendejo!" Dora leapt towards him. "Try to catch these Spanish hands!"
She came up and threw her fists out. She threw a left, a right. A slap, punch and a kick. All were blocked by Toji, who was frowning.
This girl looked... so familiar...
Seeing an obvious opening in her strikes, he simply lifted a hand and slapped the girl.
On the ground, Dora spat out blood. She glared up at him. "No means no. Stranger danger!" she stood up with a calculated look. "You leave me no choice." she raised a hand up.
And then she said words that made the already puzzled Toji even more puzzled.
"Toji. No attacking."
Toji raised an eyebrow.
Dora had a smug expression on.
"Toji. No attacking."
Toji took a step forward causing Dora to widen her eyes in surprise. She stood up straight, her hand held out. Confidence decreasing with each step Toji took.
"Toji. No attacking.
"Toji. No attacking!"
But as Toji quickened his steps. Dora was screeching as if she came across the sight of her ancestral grounds being dug up.
"Toji. No attacking. Toji. No attacking. Toji. No attacking. Toji. No attacking. Toji. No attacking! Toji. No attacking! Toji! No attacking! Toji! No attacking!" Toji's fist made contact with Dora's face, sending her flying out of the warehouse and into the streets.
Sprawled out on her back, Dora looked at the starry sky with empty eyes. How? How was he able to go through the "No swiping" variable technique which she came up with. It always worked. Even the Special Grade Cursed Spirit, Swiper the fox, has to abide by the rules belonging to that technique once it was utilized.
Toji... he was the first to break out of it.
He broke the rules, and that makes him a alborotador. Which is really bad. Toji is a bad man!
Boom
Following the crash, Toji jumped out of the hole and landed in the middle of the streets.
And then, he faced Dora's direction with that same cold stare.
Dora clicked her teeth. "So persistent. Reminds me of the border policemen who were determiend to stop me from crossing from that time." she brought her hands out, made a hand sign before pressing one hand behind the other with her pointer and pinkie out.
From above, the street poles were gifting the streets with light. With her hands under the light, below them, her hand's shadow took the form of a stretched out iguana. "Come out, Isa!" pools of shadows surrounded Dora before out from it came a standing Iguana.
The green Iguana, who just finished planting new flowers, was happy. She waved a claw at Dora. "Hi, Dora."
"Hola isa." Dora chirped. "Puedes ayudarme con esa persona?"
"Hm?" Isa hummed. Turning around to see a tall menacing figure standing in the dark ends of the street.
Isa gasped. "Oh no! Border police?!"
"Worse." Dora shook her head. Her eyes were serious. "Japanese!"
"Eh." Isa held her face in shock.
Seeing Toji start walking to them before going into a sprint, the two girls squealed.
They both ran, side-by-side.
Toji quickened his pace and was about to land a hit on Dora, when suddenly a long pink tongue shot out, wrapped around Dora's waist, pulling her back just in time to avoid the blow.
"Gracias, Isa!" Dora sweated.
"No problem, glad to help!" Isa yelled, running on all fours now.
"Dora! He's coming straight for us!" Backpack yelled.
Dora and Isa stepped up their pace.
As they ran, Dora looked back with frustration.
"For real man! I'm legal! I have my papers and everything, estúpido! You will not catch me alive! I will not be deported again!"
Toji, like the border police from back then, looked on with pleasure at his victim as he swiped his home-made weapon.
The weapon swiped just past Backpack's face.
Backpack could only do what he could at that moment, in response to Toji's actions. He fainted, foaming at the mouth with dull-empty eyes.
Dora cursed. She made another movement with her hands. On the ground as they ran, the hand's shadow took the form of a majestic bull, grinning angrily in the dark. "Protect us, Benny!"
Out from the shadows, a blue bull stood on it's hind legs, wearing a blue handkerchief around it's neck. Seeing that his friends were in danger. Benny was angry. He blew smoke from his nose before bouncing towards Toji. "Take this, Japanese!"
"Let's get him!" Isa gritted her teeth.
"Hiyah!" Dora turned and ran up.
The three were on Toji as if they were visitors who were just denied entrance because of their lack of papers.
Benny huffed and punched several times, Isa came in from the side with tail sweeps, and kicks and Dora backed off from her assault. She was about to use the ancient martial arts skill passed down by the women of her family, using the Special Grade Cursed Object: Mother's Chancla.
While Toji was dodging and attacking Benny and Isa, Dora came into the fray, swinging the Chancla.
The Chancla surprisingly smashed Toji into the ground.
Benny ran to the down Toji, punching him, headbutting him, even jumping into the air to squish him down under his heavy bottom which he used to squash anybody who denied him of snacks, food, or fruity beverages.
Isa came up, bit Toji's right arm like a savage, her tiny arms slapping the border-man for hunting them down.
Dora had a JoJo expression, angrily slapping the Chancla with precise aim, hitting Toji all over his body.
"How do you like that?!" she swung, slapping Toji's face to the side.
"Eat this!"
"This is for chasing me!"
"This is for slapping me earlier!"
"And this!... I don't even know. I just felt like doing it!"
The three beat up the stranger, as Toji was about to make a move, the Chancla suddenly sparked memories inside of him.
Memories of a Spanish woman, holding a little girl in her arms.
"H-Hey, you." Toji asked a question, prompting the rest to stop.
Benny suddenly punched Toji's face with the man looking annoyed.
Benny shrugged. "Reflex."
Seeing that the bad man wasn't about to attack her, Dora was staring at him, wary about the man who was still on the ground. Her legs were ready to use the ancient running technique her people used during the border crossing days if he was about to attack her.
"... What?" Dora frowned.
On the ground, Toji was quiet, his gaze fixated on Dora's chubby face. "What's your name?"
"My name?" Dora blinked. " It's Dora... Dora, Ana Maria Pilar Pablo Diego Daniela Juana Alejandro Carlos Javier Jose Ricardo Márquez de third..."
"Ah.." Toji smirked, and to the trio's shock, he stabbed his own head, closing his eyes with a smile on his face. "So you did cross the border, nice..."
Looking at the dead man, Dora, Isa, and Benny were standing there with puzzled expressions.
"Um. That was..." Benny started.
"Crazy?" Isa suggested.
"Strange?" Dora said her piece.
"Y-Yeah... all of those." Benny scratched his cheek before hearing his stomach rumble.
Dora rolled her eyes before undoing her technique. "Thanks for the assist everyone, see you two later at the Christmas party."
Shadows enveloped the two Shikigami, Dora sighed. "Finally, it's all ove-" then she felt it. A blade slashing her through her skin from right behind her back, blood flew into the air.
Dora turned to look, then became shocked with a gasp escaping her mouth. "S-Swiper?!"
Seeing that he was seen, Swiper smirked, snapping his fingers. "Oh yeah!"
The scene changed to an open area where a bleeding Dora limped. Swiper playfully slashed the air, showing Dora what he will do to her once he captures her.
Swiper was shivering in pleasure. Finally. After all this time. Dora was finally at her lowest. It was finally time to take revenge for all those times she said, "Swiper, no swiping!" and then him snapping his fingers with a sad face saying, "Oh maaaaan!" do you know how many objects, how many toys, and treasures he couldn't get his hands on because of that stupid cursed technique of hers?!
Finally, it was all about to end.
"Is this..." Dora panted, falling to her knees. "How the great Spanish Explorer is going out?"
There was so many things she hasn't done yet. Like getting her salary for the month. That was extremely important. She needs that in order for her family to survive the coming days...
Swiper flicked his sword, sending Dora's blood off it. He childishly raised a hand at Dora. "Dora, no dying. Dora, no dying. Dora, no dying! Hahaha!" he sneered with a smile. "Just kidding. You're dying today."
Dora's eyes turned dark. "You know, Swiper... there was one friend you haven't seen for ages. A friend I had back when I was just a child. He was so cute and innocent when he was a kid.."
Swiper raised an eyebrow, thinking that Dora was just stalling for time. "Who? Benny? Isa? Tico? or was it... The Big Red Chicken?" Swiper blew a raspberry at her. "Doesn't matter since you're still dying."
Ignoring the dumb fox, Dora closed her eyes, remembering the good old times. "So cute was he when he was young, but as he grew... my Familia were scared, so I had to send him away, when I met him again afterwards, he was so full of rage."
Suddenly, the lights from the streets were turned off causing Swiper to look around in panic.
"Now, Swiper... do you prefer English or Spanish?" Dora asked the question with her arms raised, her left positioned over her right, hands closed into a tight fist.
"What did you..." Swiper looked at Dora with a confused look.
Dora sighed. "No answer? Fine. I'll do both. Estúpido. So let me introduce you to an old amigo..." the area was soon swamped by shadows. In her stance, Dora focused, her eyes gradually lowering, exhaustion due to the circumstances of her current act.
She stared at Swiper, before whispering her incantation.
"Hola, Soy Dora..."
The howling of Baboons, the drumming of Gorillas, the screams of a variety of primates chanted into the air like a song, a song introducing death as well as harmony in the making. At the end of life, there is death, but in the very beginning before death, there is life. This is the circle of life, and as of right now, that swiping fox is at the bottom of the food chain.
A frightened Swiper took a step back as a large cocoon, surrounded by ropes and steel wires, appeared right behind Dora.
"Sacred treasure swings, from vines atop of trees~ From memories beyond, a friend like no other..." Dora's eyes grew sharp. "I summon Boots, the banana devourer!" from behind Dora, a mouth ripped right through the cocoon, snapping the ropes and the wires, a large and muscular arm filled with blue fur, flew out and gripped the outer chains, snapping it in pieces with a pull.
"Hey. You filthy foreigner." Dora called out to Swiper, who was so scared that droppings came out of him.
"Oh, yeah. I forgot to mention, Since he has been sealed for so long by the Spanish Bindings, Boots hasn't been fed in over, hmm, a decade I believe? So..." behind her, Boots emerged from his cage. Standing tall like a giant, muscles popping up all around him, his face set in a scowl, which showed off his fangs. His wild eyes looking forward with drool coming out from his mouth.
The behemoth's chest heaved with every breath. Stomach growling which shook the streets from just its sound alone.
"Good luck. I'll see you on the other side." Dora mockingly saluted. "Adios amigo." she was then sent flying with a single wave from Boots' arm.
Crashing into the street's walls, Dora slid down, blood dripping from her face.
Swiper's body was frozen. His pupils dilating at the sight of the unconscious Jujutsu Sorcerer.
Boots took several steps.
Thump Thump Thump
Swiper turned his head to face the giant monkey. He then noticed the red boots that the monkey wore on his feet. "Boots... Y-You're Boots? Impossible." thinking back to the past, a little money giggling with laughter walked next to Dora while eating a banana. You're telling me that Boots became... this thing? This monster...
"Wait..." Swiper stepped back.
Boots didn't listen. All he thought about was how hungry he was.
Swiper's paws waved frantically in the air. "Waitwaitwaitwait! Oh, screw you! Eugh-Damn it!" he turned to run, but tripped out of fear. He started crawling backwards as Boots extended his right hand towards him.
"Wake up! Y-You damn, explorer!" those were the last words Swiper said right before Boots' hand grabbed his face.
The End
