Pairing(s): Many. But you probably won't like it. Or you will. Ship what you want.

Ah, Miracle City. The usually chaotic and spicy cesspool currently enjoyed a peaceful and quiet night, the starry skies and chill air providing a truly beautiful scenery. The city itself seemed asleep, as silence reigned supreme-

"AH-HAHAHAHA-HA!"

…Almost supreme.

Bold, loud laughter rang throughout the city's pier. There sat the unmistakable hideout of the villainous mad scientists of Miracle City, its green, fluorescent glow visible from miles and miles away.

Going deeper into the hideout, in the lab of one such scientist, one could find where the laughter had come from-

None other than the youngest of the family, Dr. Chip n' Dip-

"Chipotle!"

Ahem, yes, pardon me- Dr. Chipotle Jr.

A tiny scoff, the young villain returned to his nefarious musings once more, resuming his evil laughter as he walked towards a Florence flask, a bright, almost glowing, delicate pink, making it stand out from the blues and greens of his lab.

Die- er, Dr. Chipotle Jr. stirred the pink liquid, a most malicious look in his eye as he no doubt waited for the right moment to monologue, shouting his evil plans into the empty room with much needed exposition, thusly sparring the narrator from doing so! You go, Dr. Japale?o!

A suspicious glare was throw upwards before the little scientist cleared his throat. "Sooon, I will have my revenge against that overgrown gato! For too long he's stood between me- Dr. Chipotle JUnior!- and Miracle City And-" his voice dropped its crescendo into a soft, almost sweet whisper. A wistful sigh and eyes shining, he swooned, "Frida Suárez. The light of my life- oh, that sweet angel could be mine, if only it wasn't for…EL TIGRE!" Faster than Manny's attention spam, Chipotle's features changed from loving to murderous rage.

"That filthy animal holds my Frida's attention, hogs it like a mangy dog- but! Not for long…" An evil snicker escaped his lips as the boy genius walked across the room to gather the last ingredient he needed. Gingerly, he picked with his bulky robot fingers a few tiny petals, a pretty color between pink and orange soon dissolving within the pink concoction.

He then capped the flask, now turned spray bottle with a satisfied smile. "With this little potion, I'll make sure he'll never stand in my way- ever again! For he'll be too busy- kissing a goat's behind! AH-HAHAHAHA-HA!"

"Oh, what a lovely world it'll be~" Practically singing, Dr. Chipotle Jr. traveled the room to get a camera- he wished to record every single moment that would lead to his delicious victory!

So elated was the villainous cyborg he forgot his little love potion unattended, just below the nearest window…

Ploft!

A soft, rounded mass of yellow fluff landed ungracefully, but oh-so-adorably on the table below that same window. The creature quickly got up, flapping its fins and wagging its draconic tail as a series of squeals- very similar to a giggle- left his smiling little face.

It was none other than Chuy! Dr. Chipotle Jr.'s abandoned experiment!

Perhaps not over his creator's neglect, or maybe in gratitude to Manny's kindness, the little chupacabra chose to be a little thorn on the doctor's plans tonight.

The little critter snuck towards the glowing potion with much caution- by which I mean he knocked almost every single flask out of the table, a sound crash! resonating across the room whenever glass broke against the floor.

A few hurried steps were heard from across the hall. Dr. Chipotle Jr. paused at the doorway in shock, just in time to see the chupacabra climbing on the window.

Creature and creator stared at each other awkwardly, both frozen in place, surely the result of the myriad of conflicting emotions that must be coursing through the two right now-

Chuy simply smiles and bats his eyelashes, eyes growing as big as your regular anime mascot, shining like- aww, just look at him! What a cutie!

If any reader criticizes the narrator for this sudden blank on the narrative, know this: you'd have done the same!

But it is just enough for Chuy to escape with the potion, tail gripping it tightly as he escaped through the window, much faster than one would assume from a literal ball-like creature.

Dr. Chipotle Jr. ran towards the window, his robotic arm stretching as far as it could but it was to no avail- Chuy was already too far away from his lab, gone with his greatest invention yet… and the key to his victory.

The villain stared in shock, unable to muster a single word. He took a deep breath and-

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"


Author's note: I'm baaack! Sorta...? This is just a silly little idea I had years ago, hopefully it'll help me get back into writing. Something simple, to help creativity. There's nothing really planned so I'll write as I go. Maybe it'll catch your interest. Maybe it won't. To those interested in my other 'upcoming/on-going' stories (if... there's still any of you out there...), I haven't given up yet. The progress is slow but... it's there. I do want to post one completed story, at the very least.

Still, thank you for reading this, those of you still in the fandom (or just passing through). Hope you are all doing well in these... trying... times. Feel free to laugh, leave a review or simply say 'what the hay?'.
