Hey guys! This chapter is a bit on the boring side, but just hang on there for now ^^
In the bustling, never ending city of New York, things always remained the same. From the crabby people that would occasionally yell at stalling passengers on the train to the slight and hazy smog inaugurating the city's bluish gray skies, eight million Americans would consider this strange place home.
People of all backgrounds and ethnicities thrive in this urban civilization, and there are two sides to this town- the fancy, elegant downtown area, and lastly, there's the ghetto neighborhood-uprooted from the face of disaster, crime and economic depression.
This place is the manifestation of prostitution, drug trading, theft, and assault of all levels. However, Mrs. Mercury, chemistry professor at Harvard University has created three special girls out of exotic ingredients- and one of those included Chemical X- to combat against all levels of injustice.
Thus the birth of what they came to be as "The PowerPuff Girls" exploded into life. Here we have Eva, Elise and Elaine, three fourteen year old girls dedicating their lives in fighting crime and the forces of evil. Gifted with supernatural abilities, they have devoted half of their lives in doing the police a favor.
But today's day is no day like other- it's the girls' birthday! The girls scampered around the house, parading around Mrs. Mercury, their caretaker and creator, while endlessly cheering as if they were at a concert.
Mrs. Mercury was average height to say the least, and she had short brown hair and big gray eyes. She was always conducting chemistry experiments as part of the class she teaches over at Harvard. Sadly, she isn't always able to arrive home on time due to the work she has. She also has another house in Boston, where she temporarily resides until her work is done.
"Today's our birthday!" Elaine screamed, jumping into Mrs. Mercury's arms.
"Oh my! Ladies, ladies, I know you're all excited, but it's only five in the morning!" she laughed, gently placing Elaine back down on the floor. "But the exciting thing about it is that we're going to spend it...at the beach!"
The girls excitedly jumped up and down.
"The beach? Does that mean we get to swim in the ocean?" Elise wondered curiously.
"No sh*t, blondie," Elaine laughed, thumping her in the head. "While you guys are flirting with the guys there, I'll be humping the sand- care to join me?"
Eva laughed softly to this.
"But Elaine, I'm sure some guys want to have a nice little conversation with you," Eva admitted, offering her a wink. "And girl, that's my job!"
"We're all super models!" Elise cried out of nowhere. "We will all find our true love!" The girls laughed. "Just not now…" Elise's smile faded at her own words.
"You ladies are only fifteen. Just focus on having fun," Mrs. Mercury laughed. "Now go and wash up."
The girls leapt in the air and surged towards the bathroom, using their flight ability. They all rushed to shower at once, but sadly, Eva was showering for more than five minutes.
"Eva, you're taking so long!" Elise whined, repeatedly knocking on the door. "I'm gonna stink so bad, the whole house will melt!" Elaine snickered to that.
"I have to look and smell good you know! I'm just finishing washing my hair, geez!" Eva sighed impatiently, and the water was turned off. A few minutes later, Elise and Elaine busted inside the bathroom at once, and began quarreling about who's going first.
"Girls, stop fighting! There are TWO bathrooms in this house!" Eva yelled, and the girls immediately shut up.
"Weee!" Elise squealed, flying to the second bathroom. Elaine wore a smug smirk as she shut the door behind her after entering the first bathroom.
Eva wiped her forehead in slight relief. A lot of times, the other two were the slightly more insane ones.
As soon as they finished washing up and dressing, they gathered their clothes for the beach and went inside Mrs. Mercury's car.
Neither of them could shut up about the beach party, and of course, all of their friends have been invited to the party this weekend! There would be food, music, dancing, a singing contest and of course, tons and tons of presents to choose from! Just hopefully, those meddling villains don't show up- yes, their arch-nemeses.
For the past years of their life, these particular people were the reasons why a lot of the crime rates have skyrocketed, but thanks to the girls, things are descending its way back down.
As soon as they dressed into their swimsuits, the girls sprinted after the car, almost toppling it over.
"I call the front seat!" Eva shouted out and the other two girls groaned as they crawled sheepishly to the back of the car.
"No fair, Eva always gets to sit up front," Elaine grumbled, crossing her arms over her chest as Mrs. Mercury sat in the driver's seat. "I wanna be up front."
"But you sat there last week!" Eva whined.
"Eva, go sit in the back with your sisters," Mrs. Mercury said kindly, and Eva stumbled to the back with a pouted lip. She always liked the front. It felt like she was driving the car instead.
"Ha!" Elaine teased, spazzing out in the air. "That's what you get!"
"Shush, wall humper," Eva giggled, thumping her in the head. "Not like you can do better!" The girls giggled and playfully clawed at each other, while Elise presses her nose willingly against the cold hard surface of the windows, with an ecstatic grin on her face.
Soon, the beach emerged into plain view, and the girls could see the shining white sand and the glittering blue sea stretching out before them.
The girls squealed and flew to the beach with their stuff. Poor little Elise hit her head against the palm tree, and was already behind.
"H-hey, wait for me!" she yelled out, flying after them.
Mrs. Mercury sighed and chuckled to herself. Girls with superpowers? She never thought they would be this hyper, especially at the age of fourteen.
Elaine got her surfing board and headed towards the leaping waves. She gracefully hopped on the board and glided through the sea, cheering ecstatically.
Elise resorted to making sand castles, but sadly, she was getting a really bad sunburn, and had to escape to the shady area before she became roasted.
Eva, on the other hand, was snorkeling in the ocean, admiring the coral reef below her.
"Fascinating!" she said to herself. She swam back up on the ocean and almost collided with Elaine with her surfing board.
"Hey!" Elaine cried, falling into the ocean with her arms flailing about. Eva giggled and helped her helpless sister back up to her feet.
"I told you you shouldn't be surfing around here," Eva said with a grin. "Now come on, food lover, I think Elise is eating all the sandwiches!" Elaine's big minty eyes widened and she made a shrill animalistic squeal, as she sprinted after Mrs. Mercury and Elise.
"THAT'S MY BOO RIGHT THERE!" Elaine warned, as she collapsed on the floor. Eva sighed and shook her head with a grin. She followed behind.
As the girls gathered around in the slightly scorching hot sand, they ate their sandwiches like hungry primitive creatures, minding the gawks from the other people. Soon, the other guests would arrive, and they would have even more fun.
Ribbons of clouds stretched gracefully over the hazy blue heavens, and soon, the beach was slowly starting to fill up with more and more people.
Little did the girls know that they were being spied on. And there was something big that was going to happen...
