Huddled against the wall of the building she and her two siblings and their husbands stood in, Blossom's gaze went to her six month old daughter, whose gaze lingered on her before she glanced in the direction of Charlotte's father, who was busy holding off the group of five villains who were set on getting to her and Charlotte.

"Get Charlotte out of here now, honey!" her husband shouted over his shoulder at her and she obliged.

She was followed by both her younger siblings who clutched their own daughters to them as they all made their way towards the building's exit. Just as they reached the exit, the three women paused and glanced back at their husbands, only to see their husbands each receive a deep slash across their stomach areas, which made the three men sink to their knees before another slash to the back of their necks made their heads part with their bodies.

The three women shifted their gazes away from the sight of their now headless husbands and slipped out of the building before they drew the hoods on their cloaks up, concealing their features. But their departure hadn't gone unnoticed.

"Follow them and find out where they're heading with their little brats, Prin," MJ said.

The curly red haired woman strode towards the building's exit and headed in the same direction as the three women. The bright moonlight shone down onto three hooded women who got the feeling that they were being followed, but they continued heading down the empty sidewalks, currently carrying their sleeping daughters in their arms. One of the three hooded women lowered her head in order to look at the slumbering baby currently in her arms.

"Are you two sure we should be doing this?" she questioned the other two hooded figures.

"Of course we should," the hooded woman in the center replied.

"That's enough. We're doing the right thing for our daughters. With their fathers dead, they're no longer safe. The villains who killed their fathers won't stop looking for them. If we each claim that our daughters died somehow, the villains will no longer have a reason to come after them," Blossom added.

Silence fell between the three hooded women as they continued heading down the moonlit sidewalk. Finally, the three hooded women came in sight of the orphanage and made their way through the gates. They approached the steps and made their way up to the two front doors that led into the orphanage. Reaching for the doorbell that was off to the left of the two doors, Blossom pressed it and they waited for the headmistress of the orphanage to come to the two front doors.

Presently, one of the two doors was opened just wide enough to allow the three women to slip inside. Once inside, the three women pushed back the hoods that concealed their faces and they met the headmistress' gaze. The headmistress' gaze lingered on the three women before it shifted to the slumbering infants currently nestled in their mothers' arms. She suddenly noticed that her three friends' husbands were nowhere to be seen.

"Where are your husbands?" she asked.

"They each sacrificed their lives so we and our daughters could escape. But I think we were followed here, so we need another safe place to hide our daughters."

"There's another orphanage close by that the villains don't know about. You can take your daughters there. Go out the back entrance, which is just past the kitchen."

The three women did so, but not before hugging the headmistress of the orphanage tightly, feeling remorse that they and their daughters would survive, but their longtime friend since childhood wouldn't survive the attack on the orphanage.

They ran out of the orphanage's back door and were halfway up the block when they heard the sound of a massive explosion from behind them and each of the women felt a wave of sorrow for the death of their childhood friend.

Line break

Standing across the street from the now blazing orphanage, Prin saw no sign of her childhood enemies or their daughters. Pleased that the daughters of her three childhood enemies had been killed in the explosion, along with their mothers, she walked away from the destroyed orphanage and went back to rejoin the other villains, who still occupied the building that Charlotte's. Carmen's and Carla's fathers had been killed in. She walked into the building, which made every villain glance over at her.

"Well?" MJ asked.

"Charlotte, Carmen and Carla are dead, along with their mothers," Prin replied, which made all the villains cheer.

"I believe you're not being very truthful with the villains, my dear Prin," a voice spoke from out of the empty air, followed by its owner emerging from a cloud of reddish smoke.

"I was right across the street from the orphanage they went into and I saw no sign of anyone leaving the orphanage through the front doors after I blew it up," she said.

"They wanted you to believe that they and their daughters died in the explosion you caused, Prin, but our three female enemies and their daughters are very much alive."

Line break

Unaware that their ploy to make their enemies think that they and their daughters had been killed in the explosion that had destroyed the orphanage that had been run by their childhood friend was unsuccessful, the three women made their way up the stairs to the front door of the nearby orphanage their now dead friend had told them about before they gently placed their still sleeping daughters just in front of the main door before tucking a slim envelope meant for each of their daughters into the folds of the blankets. Getting to her feet, the redhead rang the doorbell before she and her middle sibling made their way down the steps.

At the bottom of the steps, they both paused and turned back towards their blonde sibling, who was still kneeling beside her sleeping daughter.

"What are you doing, sis? We've got to get out of here," the dark haired woman said.

"It's not fair that we have to leave our children to be raised in an orphanage."

Blossom joined her fair haired sibling and helped her to her feet.

"I know but it's the only way to make sure our daughters will be safe," she told her blonde sibling.

Semi reassured by her oldest sibling, the blonde joined the dark haired woman while the redhead rang the doorbell and then joined her two younger siblings before they all hurried away from the orphanage and their daughters. Inside the orphanage, the current headmistress had heard the doorbell ring, so she opened the front door, only to notice the three sleeping infants that were currently swaddled in blankets that matched their eyes. She lifted the infant in the center up into her arms before she called for two other women to bring the other two infants inside.

Hearing her call for them, Diana and Carly emerged from the kitchen area and they noticed the two other infants before they carefully lifted the remaining babies into their arms before Carly shut the front door of the orphanage. Just then, the headmistress noticed the slim envelope that was tucked into the blanket that contained the infant she held in her arms and she plucked it from the folds of the blanket.

"Charlotte," she read aloud and her gaze went to the red haired infant she had in her arms.

"This envelope says Carmen," Diana added.

"And this must be Carla I'm holding," Carly put in.

"Why were these babies just left here?" the headmistress questioned.

"No idea, headmistress," Diana said.

Line break

The three women were headed back towards the building where their husbands had willingly sacrificed themselves for the sake of their wives and daughters, when they found themselves surrounded by all the villains they'd faced on several occasions over the years.

"You thought you could trick me into believing that your daughters hadn't survived the explosion that destroyed the orphanage your longtime friend had run," Prin said.

"Where are your precious daughters?" MJ demanded.

"What makes you think that we'll tell any of you where our daughters are," the dark haired woman snapped.

"You'll tell us where you placed your daughters one way or another," another villain added.

"Never," the blonde haired woman hissed.

"Perhaps we'll just have to torture the location of your three daughters out of you," Sedus put in.

"We'd rather die then reveal the location of where our daughters are," Blossom replied.

"Have it your way, my dear," the red skinned villain said before he fired off a huge beam of energy at the three women, which completely engulfed them.

After a few seconds, he stopped firing the beam of energy and the crowd of villains noticed the three smoking cloaks that the three women had been wearing.

"Nice going. Now we'll never find out the location of where they hid their daughters," MJ said sourly.

"Patience, my fellow villains. We'll find their daughters eventually," the red skinned villain replied.

"Preferably before they learn of the power that will enable them to destroy all of us villains once and for all," Sedus put in.
