This is a remake of a fic I posted earlier. In the last one, some people posted flames, and upon further inspection of the fic, I found out that I agreed. That, and an explanation from Vbots... whom I thank. Without further ado... the disclaimer.

Disclaimer: I don't, have never, and will never own the rights to The Powerpuff Girls TV show. Craig McCracken does, and he does a pretty damn good job! Hah! So there!

Special thanks to CrystalFenix for supplying me with a script of the PPGs' encounter with the RRBs.

And now... the fic.

The Reunion

Mojo Jojo was in the black market. He was dressed in his usual blue V-shaped costume with a purple cape that hung down from the back and a porcelain helmet on his head, covering a greatly deformed brain. As he looked around, there seemed to be no places that sold any of the precious substance that he required for his plan. After a few hours, he found what he was looking for. While the man who owned the shed was with another customer, Mojo pulled out a timed smoke bomb and set it for four seconds.

"Excuse me, sir," he said, with a smile, to the man. "How much can I recieve for this item?"

The man gasped just as the bomb exploded, sending clouds of dust and smoke everywhere. Mojo put on his special goggles that protected him from, and saw objects through the smoke. He quickly grabbed the Chemical X off the counter and ran away.

"MWAHAHAHAHA!!"

"Ah, yes. Chemical X...." Mojo had finally returned to his lab. Inside were several condensation units that were turned off in his absence, along with several beakers and flasks filled with various substances. He raised the container of Chemical X into the air. "Yes... with this, I will now bring back the Powerpuff Girls' most threatening enemies that have ever shown themselves and threatened the Powerpuff Girls. They will finally be perfect aides to me in my conquest for WORLD DOMINATION, as I, MOOOJO JOJO am finally to destroy them by creating my most creative creations, the ROWDYRUFF BOYS, and therefore dominate the world! MWAHAHAHAHA! This new chemical enhancement of having Chemical X, as opposed to last time, in the prison, where I had no other choice but to use the most potent toilet in the entire jail, which was just potent enough to mix these three ingredients..." He walked over to a counter by his lab and cast his shadow over the three basic ingredients that had been broken down from the Rowndyruff Boys after the explosion. "...Snips, snails and puppy dog tails! Yes! It is these ingredients that the Rowdyruff boys were made from! These three main components were once a part of the Rowdyruff Boys themselves! They were spawned by me, and will be spawned once again with the chemical element..." He paused, letting himself bask in the dramatic effect. "CHEMICAL X!"

Mojo looked into the center of a cast-iron cauldron and smiled devilishly. "With this chemical, so called 'Chemical X,' I, MOOOJO JOJO will soon have the necessary force to drive the Powerpuff Girls' souls from their mortal shackles and finally make room for me, MOOOJO JOJO to conquer the world, because they will be dead, deceased and furthermore, dead! MWUAHAHAHAHA- I said 'dead' twice.... Oh, well. No time for that. It is time that I complete the plan that I have worked on and planned." With that, and in one fluid motion, he unceremoniously swept the snips, snails and puppy dog tails into the vat. He then opened the jar and poured an equal portion of the chemical in as well. Soon, the mixture started bubbling, and Mojo put his arms in an "X" in front of his face to shield him from the explosion.

The explosion made the ground shake as the people in the park were enjoying themselves on this nice, hot, sunny day. For a brief moment, these people thought that there was a small earthquake happening, but they soon realized that it was just the stupid monkey on top of Volcano Mountain. They quickly forgot about it and went back to their own business.

Mojo, as soon as he recovered from the explosion, opened his eyes and saw the vague outlines of red, blue, and green figures just hovering in the air. The Rowdyruff Boys. They seemed confused as to where they were.

"Hey, where are we?"

"Yeah! Where the heck are we?"

"And what in God's name are you doing on the ground?"

He couldn't see correctly, but it sounded like Boomer, Butch and Brick, in that order, had just spoken. He rubbed his eyes and stood up. "My children! I missed you so much, you heathen devils, you!"

Brick pushed Mojo away. "What are you doing?"

Mojo was taken aback. "Well, you are my sons, and I have missed you so much, and I was giving you a fatherly hug because I am your father, and I have missed you for the past year. Now we must make haste and start making a battle plan to destroy the Powerpuff Girls!"

The Ruff brothers crossed their arms.

"Look, Mojo," Boomer said, hovering toward him. "If you think that we're going to join that stupid escapade for your foolish ambitions after what happened, you are bitterly mistaken!"

"Yeah," Butch said, coming closer. "I remember exactly what happened to us after we fought those SISSIES! WE EXPLODED!"

Brick came so close to Mojo that he nearly bumped his nose. "We will not do your bidding anymore, you ass!"

"But you do not understand! I have not told you the most important change in the general scheme of things. I now made it so that you will not explode from their kisses! Their kisses will-"

"Who cares?" With that, Brick picked Mojo up off his feet and hurled him across the room and into some beakers, shattering them on impact. Mojo fell off the counter and slammed on the floor.

"And... DAD," Brick said.

Mojo painfully looked over at Brick.

Brick was holding Mojo's wallet and waved it in the air for Mojo to see. "Thank you for our... ALLOWANCES!" Brick jumped up and flew out the skylight. His brothers followed him.

Mojo let out a soft moan. "Curses . . . " He fell unconscious.

The Rowdyruff Boys were laughing as they soared through the air. Brick was distributing the money. "Looks like Mojo has about $450 in here... so that's $150 for you, $150 for you and $150 for me."

Boomer smiled. "Cool! What do we do first?"

Brick looked around. He soon saw a bagel shop. "Hey, are you guys hungry?"

"Come to think of it," Butch said, rubbing his stomach, "I'm starvin'!"

"Me too," Boomer said.

Brick's stomach growled very loudly. "Heh," he said. "Yeah. I'm hungry too. Heh heh.... Let's go."

They flew down and landed on the sidewalk right in front of the bagel shop. They went inside.

Meanwhile, the Powerpuff Girls, Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup were on their way to stop a bank robbery in progress. Blossom, the red rector of the group, flew in front, with Bubbles, the blue bambino, and Buttercup, the green gamine, at either side. They flew quickly and seemed just to want to get it all over with. Heists were pretty routine; just about every two or three days, some kind of theft would be pulled.

Blossom looked at Buttercup as they were making their way to the bank. "Are you going to be OK now, Buttercup?"

Buttercup had been acting strange all day. She wouldn't tell them what exactly it was, because she didn't understand it herself, but she had been getting a bad feeling all day. Like Deja Vu or something. "Yeah. I'll be all right."

"Good." Blossom looked forward. "Here we are! Come on!"

They all zipped in through the entrance and beat the heck out of the people who were robbing the bank. You could hear their screams from the outside of the bank. After the Powerpuff girls beat up the robbers, they lifted their limp bodies outside for the police to take off to jail.

"Thanks, Powerpuff Girls!" One of the police officer said graciously.

"Thank you, sir," Blossom said, smiling.

"Yeah," Bubbles said, also smiling. "It was our pleasure."

Buttercup was too upset over the feeling she had about the day.

"Buttercup," Blossom said, tapping her on the shoulder.

"Huh?" Buttercup finally noticed the three others staring at her. "Oh, yeah. It's all in a hard day's night."

The police officer could only stare at her and her malapropism. "Uh... yeah...."

Blossom quickly said, "OK. Gotta go! Bye!"

"So long."

"See ya."

They waved to the officer as they sped off toward their house.

As soon as they got there, Blossom confronted Buttercup. "Buttercup? What's going on with you? Why are you so out of it today?"

"I don't know," she said, a totally serious look on her face. "I've been having the strangest feeling of Deja Vu."

"Deja Vu," Blossom asked. "What do you mean?"

"Well, I'm having this feeling... it's like we've lived this day before."

"Buttercup, bank robberies happen every day."

"No, I don't mean that. I mean, like something BIG that we had to overcome...."

"Oh. Do you know what it is?"

"No...."

"No!"

Butch backed away from the Tournament-Style fighting game he was playing; he had just lost. During the time that the Powerpuff Girls were stopping the bank heist, the Rowdyruff Boys simply grabbed a few bagels and some packets of cream cheese and jelly, and made their way to an arcade. Butch grunted and sat down to eat his bagel as he made room for his blue brother, who boisterously bounced forward, and bumped the start button.

"Watch a pro!" Boomer said as the game began to come to life.

Butch growled as Boomer took control and racked up a higher score than Butch's in just one fight. He thought to himself, "Hmpf! I only lost because their fighting style is too organized."

But Boomer soon bit the dust as well. "Dang. The fighting style of this game is too organized! Let's play something else." He looked over at an air hockey game. "Who wants to go head to head with ME?"

Butch jumped up, but Brick spoke first. "Call!"

Butch swore under his breath and let Brick take the other end of the table. "I play winner."

Brick started with the puck. Brick tried to ricochet the puck off the left wall. In a split second, Boomer knocked it back the same way it came. Brick knocked it in the other direction, bouncing it off the right wall, then off the right wall. Boomer narrowly missed it and Brick gained a point. Boomer frowned a little, but retrieved the puck. He set it back on the table and slammed it straight at Brick's goal. Brick whacked the puck so that it shot left, right, then left and headed towards the goal, but Boomer smacked it back again, and bounced it off the right wall and into Brick's goal. Brick was still smiling, however, and set the puck back on the table. Brick whacked the puck back across the table, Boomer whacked it so it bounced off the left side, and into Brick's goal. Now Brick started to frown. He placed the puck back up on the table. Time to turn it up a bit.

Buttercup STILL did not know why she felt so strange. Maybe all she needed was a bit of relaxation. "Hey, girls?"

Bubbles and Blossom looked over at her.

"Wanna go to the arcade?" Buttercup asked.

Bubbles looked over at her. "I thought that you weren't feeling well."

"I'm OK," Buttercup responded. "I just think that if I have something to take my mind off it, it will go away."

Blossom smiled. "Yeah. You're right. This might just be what you need."

Bubbles stood up. "Let's go ask the Professor for some money."

The three of them raced downstairs.

The Powerpuff girls' creator, Professor Utonium, is a tall man who can be described as the smartest person and scientist in Townsville. He was in the middle of doing some chores. He had on his traditional pink apron over his lab coat, and his red bandanna on his head.

"PROFESSOR!"

"Yes? Is there something wrong?"

"No," Bubbles began to say.

Blossom said, "But could we please...

"...Go to the arcade?" Buttercup finished.

The Professor smiled and said, "Sure. Let's see. Will five dollars each be enough?"

"Yes, that'll be plenty," Blossom said.

The three took their five dollar bills and said, "THANKS, PROFESSOR," just before flying off.

Bubbles was wondering what was really bothering her sister. She still seemed to be distracted by other things.... Maybe it WOULD go away if they went and had fun. They soon approached the arcade. Suddenly, Buttercup stopped flying, and just hovered in place. Blossom and Bubbles stopped as well, and looked at her.

Blossom tilted her head to the side and asked, "Buttercup, what's wrong?"

Buttercup was too shocked, and could only say, "Whatever I sensed earlier..."

Blossom got closer to her. "Yes?"

"Whatever it is, it feels like it's inside that arcade..."

Blossom and Bubbles both looked at the arcade, then at Buttercup, then at the arcade. "Well, let's, uh, check it out." Even though she sounded brave, Blossom was still fearful of what might be in there. She slowly hovered up to the window.

Her sisters followed her.

"One..."

Her sisters gulped rather loudly.

"Two..."

All three of them began to get butterflies in their stomachs.

"Three."

The three of them peered into the arcade and saw the Rowdyruff Boys engrossed in the various game stations. The boys were facing away from them, so there was no immediate danger of them seeing each other.

"What are those meanies doing here? I thought we 'esploded' them!" Bubbles just kept starring at the three of them, especially the blue one, whom she found quite cute... if he wasn't their enemy, then....

Buttercup turned to Blossom. "I told you I sensed something bad!" She turned back to look at them, but in particular, she was looking at the green Ruff. He looked like such a macho man.

Surreptitiously eyeing the red ruff, Blossom said, "But where's Mojo? If he created them again, where is he?"

Buttercup adverted her gaze from the green boy and looked at Blossom. "Maybe he thinks that they need to hone their skills and are letting them do it by playing arcade games!"

Blossom cocked an eyebrow at this idea, but said, "Maybe you're right. With him, anything's possible. Let's go see if that's what he's doing."

Bubbles heard very little of what they were saying because she was so enamored towards this blue guy, but she certainly heard them begin to fly off, and quickly followed.

From the inside, Boomer saw a blue streak out of the corner of his eye. It reminded him of something he knew that he liked, but he couldn't remember quite what it was. He simply shrugged and continued playing his game.

Mojo had waken up about an hour ago and started tending to his broken bones. He already had his left arm in a splint and his neck in a brace. It was a good thing he had a lot of muscle in that area, or he could have been paralyzed. He was just about to bandage his fibula when the Powerpuff Girls broke through his ceiling.

"Oh, great!" Mojo let out a groan. "Do you not realize that there is a skylight that you can fly through without making a humongous mess on the ground that I have clean up, and that this said mess will not be cleaned up anytime soon, seeing as I have a broken arm, leg and vertebra after having a close encounter with the red Rowdyruff, Brick, whereas I was rendered unconscious and disabled directly after creating them with my sheer genious?!"

Blossom stared at him for a moment, but couldn't understand what he was talking about. "What?"

"URGGGGHH! I recreated the Rowdyruff Boys with the intention of destroying you three brats, but they turned on me, and you broke into my lab, making a hole fifteen feet away from the skylight, and now from the attack, I have three boken bones: my radius, my fibula, and one of my vertebra, and there is a giant mess on the floor, which was caused by you after you smashed my ceiling! IS THAT CLEAR?!"

"Yes. Thank you." Blossom led her sisters out through the skylight.

Mojo watched them leave. "Stupid Powerpuff Girls...." He began to walk over to the broom closet. But then he realized that something was missing. Realizing what it was, he said, "Oh, yes! I forgot to say 'curses,' being the word that I usually use to make a transition to the next scene, and I will now say this word, 'curses,' being the word that I should have said!" His face turned into that of an inimical scowl. "CURSES!"

Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup quickly made their way back to the arcade. They got to the front door, and hesitated. They were most afraid of what might happen if they couldn't destroy the Boys again, as in, maybe they would expect the kisses and keep as far away from them as possible, launching long-range attacks. If they were made differently this time, Mojo might have made them more Powerful.

"Well, leader girl, what's the plan?" Buttercup stood there with her hands on her hips.

"I don't know. For once, I don't know."

Bubbles thought for a moment, then said, "How about we just go inside and play some games. We can watch them while we're playing."

Blossom had to seriously consider this. "OK. Let's go." But right before they were going to push the doors open, she was something coming towards the door. It was the Rowdyruff Boys! "Watch out!" The three of them leapt to the side, and into the bushes, just as the Rowdyruff Boys walked through the doorway.

"I'm tired," the Ruff who had been identified as Brick said as he walked through the door. "What do you guys wanna do? Butch?"

The green Ruff stretched his arms over his head and said, "I dunno. What about you, blondie?"

The blue Ruff looked annoyed. "Stop calling me that! Anyway, why don't we go check out a Go-Kart track? I think I spotted one at the other end of town."

"Good idea, Boomer. Let's go." Brick began racing off in that direction. Boomer and Butch blasted off as well.

A few seconds later, after the Rowdyruff Boys were out of sight, Blossom turned to her sisters and said, "Come on! Let's follow 'em."

Her sisters didn't argue with that; secretly, they wanted to follow them just as much as she did.



Brick, Boomer, and Butch, oblivious to their followers soon arrived at the Go-Kart track. It was close to a design of a figure 8, but with more turns, and a short Corkscrew figure ending a few meters from the finish line. There was a pretty long line of people waiting to get on, but they could certainly wait their turn. After one more group of people went on the ride, they got on and received their helmets. Coincidentally, they were given helmets that were their respective colors.

The Powerpuff Girls saw the Rowdyruff Boys go through the gates for the Go-Karts. They lined up as well and received their helmets. By chance, they received helmets that were their respective colors. The Rowdyruff Boys were gearing up for the race, saying things like, "You goin down, blondie," and, "Well, you can eat my dust," among other things.

Soon, they were interrupted by a loud whistle, followed by one of the staff of the Go-Kart track, who said, "Ev'ryone into your cars!"

The Powerpuff Girls quickly hopped into their cars, and were just strapping themselves in, when a giant monster lunged toward the race track. Before they could do anything, the Rowdyruff Boys stood up and began growling.

Boomer looked at the monster, and with a smile on his face said, "The Powerpuff Girls ain't here..."

"But if you're lookin' for a fight..." Butch prepared himself to attack.

"I guess we can SERVE IT UP!" In a flash, Brick jumped toward the monster with his brothers close by.

The Powerpuff Girls watched in utter amazement as the Rowdyruff Boys threw punch after punch and kick after kick at the monster, who then sank, bashed and bloodied, into the sea. The Rowdyruff Boys shouted something inaudible at the monster as it was going down, then flew back down to the race track. It was a good thing the helmets covered most of their heads, or the Powerpuff Girls might have been spotted. Especially since they were clapping with excitement, despite being afraid of being seen. But the Rowdyruff Boys seemed oblivious to everything else except their places in the race. As soon as they seated themselves, and strapped themselves in, they heard some familiar voices over the motors whispering to each other behind them.

"Maybe they aren't really bad anymore. Maybe all they want to help us out."

"Um, no.... I think they just... Just wanted to, um, have fun. That's the only real reason."

"Blossom, I think Bubbles is right. If they wanted to have fun in a criminal way, they would be out destroying Townsville!"

"Buttercup.... Maybe you're right...." It sounded like she was pretty sure.

They realized who was behind them, but acted as if they hadn't even heard it. If they had turned around, they might have had to fight them again. Even if they couldn't be destroyed by kisses, they really didn't want to hurt the girls anymore.

"All right, everyone." The cheery race track staff member pulled the lever that let them start. "GO!!"

"YEAH!!" The boys floored the gas pedal of the car as softly as they could, careful not to break the car itself. The girls did the same, and leaned forward to, even though it did not look it, try to see their counterparts better. To see the expressions on their faces as they cruised through the course. They smiled to themselves, taking in the full view, then leaned back and raced.

Brick could see the Powerpuff Girls looking at them during the whole race. He especially took comfort in knowing that the red Puff liked him. Even thought he'd never admit it to his brothers, and they would never admit it either, but they really DID like the kisses they got from the girls right before they exploded. He thought to himself, "Dang! Am I turning into a softie?" He sighed, knowing his brothers probably felt the same way about their counterparts. He looked forward, and to his surprise, he almost crashed into the side of the track, and had to swerve in order to miss it just in time.

Buttercup finally pulled ahead of Butch. She glanced over, catching his surprised look, and then turned in front of him, cutting him off. She smiled, getting an uncharacteristic smile on her face... one that symbolized infatuation. But she continued to pull ahead, that is, until her hand accidentally slipped off the steering wheel for a moment, causing her to swerve left and right until she finally straightened out. But by that time, Mr. Green had caught up with her. He looked at her for a second, and said, "Butterfingers, eh? HAHA!" This time, HE pulled ahead of her. She didn't catch the fact that he had guessed her name, though, as she continued racing.

Bubbles was having almost no trouble pulling ahead of Boomer. He had just about come into the world today, and had virtually no practice driving cars. It looked like his sharp turning all over the road as he nearly hit the other kids' cars probably didn't help either.

After a few more laps, it was time to stop. Buttercup came in first, then Butch, then Blossom, then Brick, then Bubbles, then all the other drivers other than Boomer, then he finished. As soon as it was okay, the Rowdyruff Boys unbuckled themselves and zipped off, being sure to leave their helmets in the seats of the cars to save time.

"After them, girls," Blossom commanded, and they flew after them. Not 100 feet from the track, the Rowdyruff Boys shot out from behind a tree and made the Girls stop. For a few moments, they all just hovered there, wanting the other to say something. Brick finally became impatient, and said, "Uh... you know... you never... told us your names." He tried to smile politely, but manners were not his forte, and he ended up turning it into a forced smile.

"I'm Blossom," the red Puff said politely, and with a smile, even though she was still about 25% sure that they were still bad despite the talk that she and their sisters had.

"Buttercup," the green Puff said, trying to be polite, as she was taught, but she hadn't figured that she'd ever need it, so hardly practiced it. She felt kind of awkward.

"I'm Bubbles," the blue Puff said with a smile. "It's very nice to meet you."

The three Ruffs smiled. Brick said, "Hi. I'm Brick. He's Boomer, and he's Butch."

"Hi," Boomer said, gruffly, but politely.

Butch also seemed to be making an attempt to be polite. "Yo. What's up?"

"You know," Brick said, becoming serious, "I know that we guys attacked you before, but I'd like you to know that we've... sort of decided to stop, and we'd just like to say we're..." he paused, trying to get enough courage to say it, all the while getting an expression similar to Buttercup's when she had to say sorry to Elmer Sglue. "I'm... we're... sssss.... sssssoooorrry...." he said, getting it all out, just before smiling and turning to glare at his brothers.

They hastily said, "Yeah, we're..." they seemed to have just as much difficulty. "Ssssoooorrrry, too."

Bubbles seemed somewhat understanding. "It's OK. Mojo had some influence over you the first time, probably because he made you, and you sort of felt a sense of love towards him, because he was your father."

Blossom seemed to think that it was something else. "No... I think that it had something to do with the chemical composition with whatever they were made the first time."

The Rowdyruff Boys nodded, embarrassed, remembering how they were made in a prison from toilet water, which probably enhanced their evil sides, having cells in them that came from different inmates. But each of them made up and shook hands. Soon, the silence was broken by Butch's stomach grumbling. "Heh! Some of that racing must have given me an appetite. You five getting hungry?"

They all laughed, then flew off to find somewhere to eat.

End of Part 1.

All right. As you may have noticed, I changed the part where they fell in love at first sight. Now they are only showing the first traces of affection. I'm going to be working on the second chapter, but I won't tell you what happens. You'll have to see for yourself. I guarantee it will be an astonishing chapter.
