The moon shined over the city of Townsville, as dark clouds were slowly floating across the sky. The light barely made it through the thick grey clouds, so the town was darker then it normally would be. It looked like there was going to be a really bad storm, but there hadn't been a drop of rain in weeks. Blossom Utonium lay, awake, in her bed staring out the window. Her sisters had fallen asleep a long time ago, but Blossom was having trouble doing so. Everywhere she looked, she saw blood red eyes staring at her. She could here the sound of laughter coming from just outside the window, and she could even feel a pair of hands working their way up her legs. She knew that nothing was there, but it just seemed so real to her. She had been like that ever since that fateful night.

Flashback…

It was a windy night. The sun had already set, and everyone had gone to sleep. Though, nobody was ever in the place Blossom happened to be. She was standing in the middle of a large forest, surrounded by tall trees. The twigs cracked underneath her feet with every movement she made.

Standing a few feet in front of her was her counterpart, Brick Jojo. He had his usual smirk on his face.

Blossom looked into his eyes and could see that he was trying to intimidate her. She wasn't afraid of him; she had fought him many times in the past. "I'm getting tired of doing this, Brick. This time I really will destroy you."

Brick chuckled. "Is that so? I recall you saying that the last time we fought and the time before that too."

"I'm serious this time. I'm not leaving until I see you die."

He got into a fighting stance. "Then I guess you're not leaving." He then dashed at her and gave her a quick punch in the stomach. Blossom recovered quickly, and retaliated with a kick in the face.

Brick stumbled back and regained his balance. "Is that all you got?" He smirked again.

"I'll wipe that smirk off your face!" She flew straight at him and attempted to punch his face, but Brick was ready this time and caught her punch.

"What's the matter? I thought you were gonna kill me."

Blossom tried to punch him with her other hand, but Brick caught it with his and pushed her into a tree, holding her hands behind her back to restrain her.

"Face it, Powerpuff. You're too weak to ever get rid of me. I'll always be here, making life harder for you."

"That's not true! I'm gonna get rid of you today!" Blossom was able to get one of her hands free and punch him away from her, after that she began to punch him repeatedly.

With every punch, Brick was pushed further back until he was against a huge bolder. He started to get pushed into the bolder, until Blossom's final punch shattered it. Brick fell to the ground and just laid there, looking up at his counterpart. "You're so pathetic."

Blossom was infuriated by that comment. She got on her knees right above him, and started punching him in the face as hard as she could. "Shut up!!! I'm not pathetic, and I'm not weak!! I was able to put up with you for so long!!!"

Brick grabbed Blossom's hands, shocking her. He was then able to pull her down and pin her to the ground.

She struggled to get free, but he was too strong.

"You see? I'm much stronger then you. How could you even hope to beat me?"

"Maybe I can't beat you alone, but I don't have to! I have my sisters to help me!"

"They have Butch and Boomer to worry about."

Blossom didn't know what to say at that point. It was obvious that Brick was stronger then her, and his brothers might have been stronger then her sisters.

Brick smirked when he saw her suddenly close her eyes, admitting defeat. "Don't feel too bad Blossom, I don't plan on killing you for a while. I've realized that it's much more fun to make your life miserable, and it's even better knowing that you can't stop me."

Blossom opened her eyes to see that he had moved closer to her, his lips were getting close to hers.

"You see Blossom; I'm the worst villain you've ever faced. I'm worse then Him and Mojo combined. And do you know why?"

She didn't answer him.

Brick moved closer so her could whisper in her ear. "Because I am the shadow that lurks in every corner of your life, I am the crack that threatens to break your sanity and leave you with nothing, I am the wall between you and your happiness, and I am the nightmare that just wont go away."

When Blossom looked into his eyes, she could see that he was completely serious. He knew for a fact that he wasn't going to die anytime soon, and he also knew that he was going to make her life a living hell. And she knew that she couldn't stop him.

End of flashback…

Blossom shuddered after remembering the last thing he said to her. He really was all of those things to her and now that she finally realized it, it had broken her. She looked up when she heard the sound of a footstep in front of her. All she could see were shadows. She was relieved, but her relief suddenly turned to fear when she saw a pair of red eyes staring right at her. In no time, a figured stepped out and slowly approached her. "Brick… what do you want?"

He stepped onto the bed and walked over to her. He then kneeled so he was at eye level with her. "I want you to suffer."

The last thing she saw was his red eyes looking into hers, then everything suddenly went black and she couldn't see him or anything else. She could barely here him laughing at her. At that moment, she realized that her life was a nightmare.
