Rodolfo puts a medal around Manny's neck

Rodolfo said "Hi Bebe who's papi's little handsome man!" as he puts Manny in his crib

Rodolfo has black hair, brown eyes, light brown skin and black mustache. He has a muscular body. He wears a golden yellow poncho

Manny giggled as he clapped his hands

"What a cute baby but he needs a friend"

An idea popped into Rodolfo's brain

Rodolfo chanted and all of sudden a cute fluffy green parrot appears

Manny laughed and hugged his parrot

Manny yawned softly and fell asleep

"My little Manny"

Suddenly they hears a voice

"Aww so cute"

It was Tito

Tito has messy black hair, brown eyes, tan skin and black mustache.

"I don't know they're throwing a party without me!"

Everyone glared at Tito

Rodolfo hugged Tito "Hi Tito how's the underworld"

"Dreary and creepy"

Tito hears a voice squealing

Tito walked to a crib and sees Manny

Tito said "Who is that-"

But Manny grabs Tito's finger causing him to scream in pain

"GET IT OFF ME GET IT OFF ME!!"

Tito pulls his finger off Manny's hand

Manny laughed at Tito's humilation

"Oh now look what you did!?"

"What you got strength!"

Tito growled and gives Manny a skull rattle

Manny blows a raspberry at Tito

Tito gets mad and went to the underworld to find a plan to kill Manny

In the underworld, a skeleton was rowing the boat

A soul tried to touch the boat but Tito blasted it with fire

When Tito arrived at his place, he gives his giant demonic black dog some steak

Tito said "Sergio!"

A chubby demon walked to Tito

Sergio has white and black striped horns, yellow eyes with red pupils and green skin with freckles on his cheeks

"Sergio reporting for duty!"

"Diego!"

A thin demon walked to Tito

Diego has light yellow horns, green slit eyes and red skin.

"Die-Diego reporting for duty!"

Tito facepalmed "Why do I work with demons!"

Tito, Diego and Sergio walked into a room where the witches were fixing a dress with a needle and thread

Tito said "Senoritas I'm sorry I-"

The witches said "Late!"

Tito said "You know I'm late for the meeting"

A orange haired witch pulled out a thread "See this thread"

Tito, Diego and Sergio said "Yes"

An African American witch said "This thread represents mortals' lives and then we cut it"

An Asian witch cuts a thread with scissors and a woman scream was heard

Sergio and Diego screamed "Take cover!"

A blue wailing soul of a elder woman flew into a well

"You must be careful with Rodolfo's son Manny"

Tito gets mad "Mann-Manny!?"

"He got supernatural strength but he has a golden heart that helps him survive once you fail Manny will sent the monsters back where they belong"

Tito turned red and roars as green fire appears behind him

Diego and Sergio said "Uh-oh?"

Tito grabbed Diego and Sergio by the neck

Sergio said "Now now let's be reasonable here!?"

Tito calms down "Chicos I have a job for you give him a bottle and he will live as a mortal"

Later that night

Maria and Rodolfo were sleeping until they hears glass breaking and their baby son crying

Maria and Rodolfo wakes up and run into the baby room

The crib was empty

Maria and Rodolfo starts to cry

Thunder crashing

It starts to rain

Sergio and Diego flew a crying baby Manny to a road

"This is great Tito's gonna be so proud of us!!!"

Diego pulled out a bottle with a skull

"Stop crying you brat!!"

Sergio feeds Manny a potion and the golden orange glow disappeared

A couple sees a baby Manny

"Ay Que Lindo a baby can i keep him!"

"I don't know but if that's okay with me"

Manny crawled to a puerto rican woman and she holds Manny

Diego and Sergio turned into snakes

But Manny played with Sergio and Diego and threw them

A couple's jaws dropped

Manny giggled as he clapped his hands

"We'll name you Manny Rivera"

Manny squealed in delight

Sergio and Diego groaned in pain

"Oh man Tito's gonna be so mad when he founds out about this!?"

Diego nodded
