The Transfer Students

"Ah, the City of New Townsville! How I missed you"

Nice to see you again too...

"Ha! It was a joke, of course I missed talking with you, my apprentice"

Yeah, thanks, nice to see you again, teacher.

"Oh, please, just call me Narrator"

...okay.

The bright golden Sun emitted its first rays over the calm city, slowly waking it up. Not long after, the stores started to open and vehicles of all sizes and colors circulated he streets and avenues. The citizens' energy sparkling almost as much as the star above.

Now the sunlight was strong enough to pass through the curtains suspended in front of the window of a girl's room.

The girl was curled in her bed, sleeping and ignoring the luminous stimulation. However, soon enough her alarm will activate and wake up this girl...

"Which on is she?"

Um, excuse me?

"I mean, Blossom, Bubbles or Buttercup"

I can't tell you, it's...

"Why?"

Because it's supposed to be a surprise!

"A surprise? It's obvious you're talking about one of the Powerpuff Girls, just tell which one already"

No! It's a narration technique, you put the audience in suspense because they don't know who you are describing.

"Aw, come on, that's only good at the start of a new story or when introducing someone new, there's no point on being mysterious about something they know about"

Arg, FINE.

The alarm finally activated and the girl, Momoko...

"Eh?"

Blossom...

"Oh"

She twisted her body, still partially asleep.

The alarm stopped and she moved into a more comfortable position and tried to catch her last dream. A giant robot made of candy was attacking the city and she as Blossom needed to eat it to stop it on said dream.

"Mmm"

Mmm, indeed.

However, she knew in her last day of summer vacations that one alarm wasn't enough...

Her digital clock beeped loudly.

But she knew that still wasn't enough.

When her digital clock remained quiet another alarm could be heard (though, considerably less intense); this last one wasn't supposed to wake her up.

But to warn her...

Momoko suddenly stood up and extended her hand to grab her phone before it was too late.

"SPACE UNICORN..." her phone started singing her most shameful tune, but was luckily stopped by her owner.

"And so, once again, the morning is saved, thanks to Blossom!"

A classic.

She then sat in her bed, fighting to maintain her eyes open and to avoid falling asleep.

Blossom then took her everyday clothes and put them on. Of course not forgetting her Z belt.

"Just to clarify, you're referring to her Powerpuff Girls Z belt?"

Yes.

"Alright"

She then walked out of the room and went downstairs.

And as she walked into the kitchen and pass the grandfather clock, she noticed something weird.

–I'M LATE! I CAN'T BE LATE IN FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL! –she shouted and hurried to the larder, taking a cereal box from it.

She then ran up to the fridge and got some milk.

As fast as she could, she prepared her breakfast...

"More like 'breakfaster', eh, eh!"

Ha... Ha... Good one, master.

"Narrator, please"

Feeling as if she was going to choke a few times, she finished her cereal, prepared everything she needed for the day, and dashed to the door and got out the house.

She ran in direction to her school, hoping she wouldn't be late in her first day and also wondering why did her alarms activated so late. She was sure she programed them so she could not be in a hurry, how did she even get them all three alarms wrong?!

She suddenly stopped.

If she was right, the alarms activated in the right time, with no reason to need to hurry in the slighest.

As far as she knew, the kitchen's clock was the only one that had the wrong hour...

HER SISTER PLAYED HER A PRANK!

"She got ker-prank'd"

–One of these days I'll... –she murmured and then sighted –No, Momoko, you're the leader of the Powerpuff Girls Z, you're Hyper Blossom, you're better than this, yeah, I am, aren't I –she told herself and then proceeded walking with (this time with no hurry) to the school.

Every now and then a car would appear on the road and send a mild breeze to her.

Now the sky almost reached its classic light-blue and the sun already warmed the air surrounding her.

Yes, it was a normal day in New Townsville. It's been like that every day of summer up to that point… at least ever since the incident.

She hadn't seen that girl since that day. Her name was Yuna. And her little furry friend, they were weird, but she enjoyed working with them and uniting forces to stop Mojo and that rabbit from taking over the world.

Maybe she could visit them one day, then again, she didn't know where they lived, only that they were from New Town… Ugh, New Town, people over there hated them, the Powerpuff Girls Z, and that incident didn't help with their fight with the blue little monster and then the destruction of a school… but maybe she could go there as Momoko instead of Blossom.

Funny that there's a place Momoko could go but not Hyper Blossom… How would her life be if everyone knew she was the leader of the Powerpuff Girls Z?, for one, she would be famous and adored at school.

Yeah! Everyone would praise her! She would live the life of a Star!

With every step, reporters would be there to interview her and a crowd would form whenever she arrives to the park. Aahhh! THAT'S THE LIVE SHE DESERVED TO HAVE!

Then again, she wouldn't be able to do much in private, and maybe so much attention would get annoying.

That's without taking Miyako and Kaoru into account. If the city knew Miyako was Rowling Bubbles and Kaoru was Powered Buttercup they wouldn't be comfortable with so much attention… Miyako is already popular at school and has told her before that she sometimes doesn't like being so estimated because she feels too pressured; and Kaoru would never be okay with everyone knowing she wears a skirt and probably making fun of her and thinking she's just as girly as Miyako and her…

Maybe it's better to keep it a secret, but that didn't stop her from wondering how her live would be.

(…)

She was now almost at the entrance of the school when she heard a familiar voice:

–Hey! Momoko!, nice to see you again –a girl said…

"What did I tell you about 'being mysterious'?"

Bubbles said.

Blossom turned in her direction and recognized her always-blue-dressed best friend.

–Hi, Miyako!, nice to see you too –she told her, reuniting with she –. Are you ready for a new year?

–Of course, and I'm so excited to see the new buildings! I wonder what new classes there will be –she asked while they walked towards the building.

–New buildings? When did they announce that? –Blossom asked.

–You don't remember?, the director told everyone a week before the vacations started –Miyako told her.

–He did? I don't remember he ever mentioning something like that –Momoko said putting a finger on her mouth.

–No? Oh, I think I know why!, it was the day after that livestream of the game you like –Bubbles exclaimed.

–Oh yeah, I was awake all night to see the 25th anniversary title! SO HYPED FOR SONIC MANIA AND PROJECT 2017!* IT WAS WORTH IT –she said with stars in her eyes.

–Yeah… you were half asleep and half awake all day –she said.

–Worth. It –Blossom told her and then asked –. But then what did I miss?

–Well, the director told us there are going to be three more buildings and two sport fields (Kaoru was excited when he said that) and there will be different classes and extra stuff like workshops and such. Honestly, I hope there's something related to fashion! That would help me so much in my career as a fashion designer! –she said smiling in the school's direction.

–Wow, do you think there's going to be a cooking class? Just imagine the cake possibilities! –Blossom exclaimed.

They then entered the building.

–We have like thirty minutes before our first class starts, wanna go check the new stuff? –Momoko asked.

–I like that idea –Bubbles said and then looked around her –. It looks like everyone had that same thought.

Blossom then looked at all the students, they were walking in the same direction.

–Are they heading to the new buildings too? –Blossom said.

–But those aren't in that direction, then where are they going?

–Hey, girls! –a girl's voic…

"…"

Buttercup called them.

–Kaoru! –both friends responded.

–Do you know where is everyone going? –Miyako asked she.

–Yes, the director called the students to the civic forum –Buttercup answered.

–The civic forum? Why? –Blossom asked.

–I don't know, maybe for the new school year speech –Kaoru suggested.

–Huh, I don't remember he doing that the other years –Bubbles said.

–Maybe it's because of the new buildings –Buttercup said.

–YES! Let's go, I want to know the details about the cooking class –Momoko answered and pulled her two friends with her.

They walked along the immense crowd towards the civic forum, though, they tried to hurry so they could get good seats.

They took some minutes to arrive, but they were surprised the moment they entered the forum.

Almost every chair was already occupied and more people kept entering the place so they looked for three consecutive seats and were quick to claim them.

–Is it me or are there more students than last year? –Kaoru asked.

Miyako and Momoko looked around. The room was huge and normally they had no problem to fit in.

But today, the forum seemed smaller compared to the amount of people entering and apparently more chairs were placed.

What was going on?

The forum took almost ten minutes to fill. And it was sure filled.

But not only that, it was also filled with lots of faces they didn't recognize.

Not long after the director (and also the mayor's brother) stepped in front of everyone and the room went silent.

Holding a microphone in his hand he started his speech.

–First, I'd like to say a few words: resistance, mania, crush** –the director said.

–Is he drunk? –Buttercup asked staring at him.

–And second: I want to welcome our new students from no other than Okinawa New Town! –he said.

Almost everyone started whispering and the rest clapped silently, both parties confused.

–Probably a lot of our old students are confused right now, so let me explain a little. At the start of the summer, an incident took place involving the Powerpuff Girls Z –surprising for the trio, half the presents started jeering at the mention of their name.

–What's up with them? –Blossom asked.

–…And our guests' last school and for that, in representation of New Townsville Mayor I apologize for said incident and in compensation, we have opened our doors and will sacrifice the workshops so the students from New Town have the necessary classrooms for their school year.

This last part was received negatively from the old students.

–Awwww, I really wanted that fashion class…

–MY COOKING CLASSES, NOOOOOOOOO! –Blossom yelled.

–It's all the Powerpuff Girls fault –some boy shouted.

–Yeah! It's their fault!

The old students shut up while the new ones started to talk.

–Don't mess with the Powerpuff Girls, they were just saving your ungrateful ass –another boy yelled.

Everyone stopped talking in that moment.

–Those Powerpuff Scums make more damage than the actual enemies, they don't know care about the property of everyone around them!

Suddenly the whole forum turned into a yelling war, old students against new ones, New Townsville vs New Town.

–Why are they so mean? –Bubbles asked, sadness evident in her face.

–Everyone, please calm down and return to your seats! –the director told everyone.

–Oh, I'll show those new students hospitality –Buttercup shouted.

–Everyone, please calm down!

–Aw, what a way to start the year…

–Return to your seats!

A/N

And so, it starts…

Next chapter: Yuna meets the Powerpuff Girls Z! Sadly, she won't recognize them in their normal forms, but that's the smallest of their problems as an experiment is on the loose and attacks the school! Stitch! Will you control your cousin?!

Thank you for reading, there's more to come ;)

*Did you watch the 25th anniversary Sonic Livestream?

**A reference to Dumbledore in the Harry Potter books where he would say random words at the start of the year. Also, he says words related to the Sonic Livestream ;) SO HYPED FOR SONIC MANIA AND PROJECT 2017!
