It’s on very rare occasions that the chupacabras attack people. Maybe is climate change, but it’s happening often lately. The famous crypto-hunter Sam Diamond and his young intern Timothy Longcarrot (for the friends… Timmy) are looking for this mythic creature. They traced the creature to a fancy casino, the place was elegantly decorated as a Japanese castle. Black Jack, Roulette, and Poker tables were served by the Pepes, a very polite race of frog-mens.
Sam.- Do you hear that, Bobby?
Timmy.- I don’t hear anything, Sam.
Sam.- Exactly this venue is quiet…. (he pulled his shotgun’s fore-end charging a shell, then he continued) Perhaps too quiet.
Timmy.- Oh no Sam, do you think it is…
Sam.- Yes Bobby, the Chupacabra is on the loose again…
Timmy.- It’s Timmy by the way…
Sam.- It hardly matters…
Timmy.- (pointing with the index finger) Look! Behind that roulette table!!! Something moved!
Sam quickly turned on that way and opened fire against the roulette table. He fired all five shells, and he kept pulling the trigger, it took some seconds to realize he ran out of ammo. Immediately after that, a moaning came from behind and some blood spilled the roulette.
Sam.- I got it!! Finally, I got it! So many years waiting for this moment, so many people saying I was crazy… so many restriction orders… but… it’s all worth it. Manny use that Polaroid of yours and take some pics… we have to immortalize this moment.
Timmy.- It’s not… ahh is worthless…
Timmy approached the roulette table slowly, meanwhile, Sam took a comb out of his pocket and started fixing his hair and beard.
Timmy.- Sam… we have a problem…
Sam.- What now??
Timmy.- You didn’t hit the Chupacabras you hit one of the Pepes… !!
Sam looked out and saw the Pepe croupier on the ground.
Sam.- Don’t be a fool Robby it was killed by that Chupacabra long before we arrived. «Ahh that damn you Chupacabra! » (He said, looking at the sealing and waiving his fist)
Timmy.- I’m pretty sure he is still alive, he is still talking.
Pepe #1143. – (coughing) Please call my wife and take me to the hosp…
Sam.- Shh… You can rest in peace now you noble creature, we will revenge your death (Said compassionately as he covered Pepe’s mouth and nose with his hands)
A flash illuminated the room, it was Timmy’s Polaroid.
Sam.- Why was that for?
Timmy.- Insurance… Just for you to know that if things get nasty, I will request to be judged separately.
Sam.- haha haha you were always such a comedian… I like you, Pete. Now grab his feet, we are going to put some rocks on this poor bastard’s jacket and sink him on the channel under the bridge at the entrance.
After they finished with that little shady task they walked away from the casino, the morale was really low. Suddenly, Sam broke the silence:
Sam.- Look boy, I know this night didn’t come out as I promised. Let me make it up to you, let’s have a drink at Satoshi Castle.
Timmy.- That will be nice, but both know you can’t afford the entrance.
Sam.- No need to, I have an all-access pass here.
Timmy.- Whaat ?? Did you take Pepe’s wallet?
Sam.- (murmuring) Well, it is not like he is going to need it.
Timmy. I can’t argue with that.
They both laughed in a relaxed way.
Sam.- But first, let’s get changed, we don’t want to stain that beautiful red carpet.
They looked on their backpacks for some more elegant outfits, maybe ones without mud and blood. Once at the Satoshi castle entrance, Sam showed the pass to the Capybara security and presented Timmy as his plus one. They went straight to the bar upstairs, Sam ordered two long drinks
Timmy.- Are you sure I’m old enough to…
Sam.- Yeah one of the great things about this place is that you can be whoever you want. That includes the drinking age, Jerry.
Timmy.- Gosh Sam It´s Timmy, T-i-m-m-y… or Timothy.
Sam.- I guess you noticed I have some «senior moments», sorry about that. I fell out of a tree trying to take a photo of a werewolf years ago, and nothing has been the same since then.
Timmy.- I read the police report, and it doesn’t mention any werewolf. It says you were peeping couples from a motel across the street.
Sam.- Nonsense! Fame came with detractors boy… remember it.
Timmy.- Fame?! Come on Sam… I doubt you’re known outside a little circle of aluminum hat nut jobs.
There was an uncomfortable silence.
Timmy.- I’m sorry Sam, it’s the alcohol talking.
Sam.- Nahh maybe you are right… Maybe I just should forget this cryptozoology thing and find some honest Job.
Timmy.- Maybe you can get back into the real estate business.
Sam.- I said «honest»…. !
At that moment, the Bartender Pepe interrupted them:
Pepe #1815. – Sers, the drinks were paid by the gentlemen in that corner, he said is a huge fan of your work.
Timmy.- Whaat a..?
Sam.- In your faaaaaccceeee, kiddo!! You made me doubt for a minute, but I knew I was famous! Now let’s meet my fan. Please be respectful.
At the end of the bar, there was a figure hard to distinguish it was wearing a fedora and a black and blue suit, He had a glass of Scotch on the rocks on the table and a Cuban cigar in his hand. Sam and Timmy approached him, and then that figure puffed the cigar, and the light from it illuminated his face. Sam looked with horror…
Sam.- Its… its… Its…… him…
Timmy.- Holly Dog!! I can’t believe it!
Chupacabras.- Heeeyyy guysss big fan here! I never miss your podcast and videos, It’s nice to finally meet you. Please have a seat! Were the drinks ok? Do you want some Sushi? Pepe here is an excellent sushifrog. Sam didn’t answer, he was frozen like his brain were needing a hard reboot.
Timmy.- I can’t believe you’re actually real… you are the Chupacabras! What are you doing here? We have been looking for you since… well I lost track of when…
Chupacabras.- Sorry about that, but I’m out of the cradle mutilation business now. It’s fine for a young chupacabra, but age doesn’t come alone you know… so I moved on and inverted on the cryptocurrency market and here I am. I rent a double suit here on the castle, all the amenities included. It is true that I sometimes attack some people for old-time sake, but only bumps and junkies. Well not all year of course, in winter I travel to the south of Italy. Also, you can call me Gary.
After some drinks and an 80-piece premium sushi table, the three of them became big friends, they were chatting and laughing out loud as friends. Sam and Timmy didn’t know that they would meet the Chupacabras that night, sometimes you just need to stop looking to find what you are looking for, sometimes your darker nightmare is just in your mind and some other times it’s just waiting for you in some bar with sushi and drinks. You just need to relax and let it go.
Aahh I almost forgot it… The canal where Sam and Timmy sank that Pepe’s corpse had a voodoo curse on it, whatever you sank on it will return evil…. but that is a different history.
