A dark haze fell over the city, it looked somewhat older and more worn down. Many of the citizens had moved out because the super heroes couldn't keep the crime down since the Rivera's had enough problems training Frida (unknown to the citizens). Crime was so bad some of the superheroes just gave up and moved out calling the town unsafe. Even some of the villains were stealing from one another. The heist of the century was now stealing food from few of the cops that remained. Santana was walking around what was left of the frightened town. She stopped, took in a big breath of the frigid wintery air, and exhaled while saying to no one in particular,

"Ah, I love the stench of fear in the morning!"

She walked by many houses that were boarded up and this wasn't even the bad side of town.

"Where are my skeleton banditos? What's taking them with that list?"

She growled annoyed and finally one skeleton bandito popped out of the ground with five of the thirteen ingredients she asked for. She went over them as the bandito handed her each item one by one.

"Hmmm, let's see now; eel bladder, sheep's tongue, snake's spit (not venom), monkey paw, and…the largest dinosaur bone on earth."

She paused for a while giving the bandito the death glare and growled viciously,

"WHERE IS THE REST? HOW HARD IS IT TO STEAL THESE INGREDIENTS?"

She sighed rubbing her skull then glared back at the bandito in total annoyance. She grabbed the bandito by his neck and held him up to her face so he could tell how angry she was. She growled in a low deep voice,

"Get the rest of the ingredients today or I will turn your bones to dust, got it."

The bandito was shaking so bad that you could hear his bones rattle for miles. He nodded hard and Santana threw him into the icy ground. Seconds later, her entire skeleton army was in front of her bowing on one knee and each one held the rest of the ingredients she asked for.

"Ahhh, much better, see that wasn't hard now was it?"

She gave them all a cruel smile as she went to each one and named each of the ingredients she had previously asked for.

"A scale from a ViperSwan (Which I wasn't so willing to give it up), a large cauldron, hair from a cheetah, breath of a ghost, a large stirring spoon with a long handle, feather of a peacock, heart of a red bull, and finally a blue hair of the victim."

She swiped the ingredients from each of the banditos and dumped them into the large cauldron along with the ingredients she got from the first bandito, except for the large dinosaur bone. When each of the ingredients collided they formed a green soupy mixture that smelled sort of like rotting gym socks. Luckily she didn't have a sense of smell. She placed her clawed hand on the giant bone and began carving a hole in the center. She began removing the marrow and re-filling it with the potion. After that, she placed the swung her guitar around and strummed a squeal out of her old strings and stepped back as her skeleton horses and carriage popped out of the ground. She gave the coachman strict instructions and he whipped the skeleton horses until they were almost flying from the speed. When the carriage stopped, Santana got up and stepped out of the door into a pile of snow. She cursed at the driver for stopping here but he just shrugged. Still cursing, she dragged the giant poison filled bone out of the carriage. She dragged it a little ways until she was in the center of the giant field. Chuckling, she pulled a bottle out of her dress with the label, ODOR OF DEAD ANIMAL, unscrewed the top and poured it onto the giant bone. She knew any dog would go crazy for a giant bone covered in dead animal stink!

MEANWHILE:

Manny was still admiring Frida's new Loba form he was frozen from shock as Frida turned around a few times admiring herself in the bathroom mirror.

"F-F-Fr,"

He tried to say her name but all that came out was a helpless stutter. Frida noticed this and tried to help him giggling a little bit,

"F-R-I-D-A, Manny please pick up your jaw from the floor."

Manny mentally slapped himself for acting like a fool in front of Frida.

"But when did you…uh…how did you."

Manny looked her up and down to soak it all in. Frida smiled and stated proudly,

"Oh I made amends with my wolf half and now instead of a split personality I one whole half-wolf."

"Wow Frida, that's great!! So, there's no more bloodthirsty giant wolf?"

Frida shook her head proudly. Then Frida stopped and sniffed the air and her tail started to wag excitedly.

"Whoa what's that awesome smell?"

Manny sniffed the air and nearly gagged. He grabbed his sensitive nose

"Ick; that would be the smell of rotting flesh."

Frida didn't hear him she was already in the living room following that scent.

"Wait, Frida, where are you going?"

She started to run with El Tigre at her heels in an instant trying to stop her but she didn't listen and just picked up speed. The next thing they knew, they were well out of Miracle city and in some snow covered field. Frida stopped, got on all fours, and sniffed around a little bit. Then she stood upright and looked around until she spotted a giant bone.

"Whoa, big bone; I can't believe someone would just leave it out here like this! Well, if no one wants it then I'll just take it!!"

And with that said she charged and sunk her teeth into the massive bone. Manny just laughed at how cute she looked doing so until something seemed wrong. He could feel an ominous presence surround the place.

"Frida maybe we should get out of here?"

Frida just continued to devour the bone completely unaware of what was going on around her. Just then Manny heard a twang of a guitar string and Santana's skeleton bandito armies surround them. Then Manny saw that familiar red smoke and Santana appear in the head of the army. Manny growled at her and she just cackled and said,

"Aww, El Tigre, it looks like you and Frida fell for my trap and soon Frida will be intoxicated with my poison and will soon be removed from this Earth permanently!! MUHAHAHA. "

El Tigre quickly looked back at Frida, who was now lying on the ground yelping in pain. Manny quickly ran to her and she looked up at him with weak silver eyes.

"It burns Manny, it hurts so much I'm so sorry I couldn't help it. It was my instinct to kill. I can't fight my instincts no matter who I am. I'm sorry I didn't listen to you. I-I love you Manny."

With that said her silver eyes rolled back into her head and her heart stopped beating. She was dead, Manny knew it. He scooped her into his arms cradling her in his arms for a while just letting the tears flow freely. After a while he set her down in the snow and growled at Santana, she noticed something different about El Tigre's eyes. They were not their normal emerald color, oh no she thought as El Tigre unleashed the giant tiger spirit fighting and clawing at the skeleton banditos and Santana until there was nothing left. He completely killed their spirits trapped inside the skeleton bodies. He went back to Frida and knelt down beside her, picked her up and kissed her gently on the lips. He finally pulled apart and begged her to get up and stop joking around but she made no movements.

"Please Frida; I love you too much to lose you again."

One of his tears sparkled as it rolled off his cheek and fell into Frida's mouth. Frida glowed with silver energy then it changed to blue energy and she opened her silver eyes and started to breathe again. Manny noticed and looked at her in disbelief. She smiled up at him and said,

"I guess the power of love is stronger than even death."

He laughed at her then went to kiss her cheek but she turned her head and their lips met in a deep and furious kiss. It seemed like hours before they broke apart but it was only four minutes.

"I love you, Frida Suarez!"

"I love you too, Manuel Rivera!"
