Take me OUT of the ball game

Chapter 1: Boomer's dream

"THE CITY OF TOWNSVILLE! A peaceful, happy city, filled with many, peaceful, happy citizens, just going with their lives and living their dreams..."The Narrator said to the audience as the many citizens just went about their day, working, playing together and just having a nice time together.

"Ah, yes, never has a town been so happy or accomplished as this one right here..."He continued as many people happily did their jobs, with large smiles on their faces, showing that they are very content with their lives...

"Yes, it certainly is-

KABOOM!

"What? What is going on here?!...'The narrator exclaimed.

We soon saw what was the cause of the explosion. It was The Powerpuff girls and once again, they are fighting against their most troublesome enemies and rivals, the Rowdyruff boys!

"Okay ladies...let's kick it up a notch..."Blossom ordered to her sisters who nodded.

"Let's get them, boys..."Brick ordered to his brother's, who also nodded.

Soon both the Powerpuff girls and The Rowdyruff boys were once again fighting against each other, and each member is facing off against their respective counterpart. Blossom and Brick were busy trying to fry each other with eye beams, Butch and Buttercup were busy trying to pound the other senseless and Bubbles and Boomer were busy fighting as well.

However, Boomer's attention wasn't on the battle for once. The blue eyed boy was fighting against his counterpart but stopped when he noticed some nearby kids playing a game of baseball, which caught the boys interest.

"Wow..."Boomer thought, so taken in by what he was seeing that he let himself wide open for attack.

Bubbles took advantage of it by punching him and sending him crashing to the ground, much to his painful shock.

"Boomer, you moron! Pay attention!...'Brick ordered after seeing what just happened, before going back to fighting against Blossom.

"I...Uh...Okay..."Boomer said, looking down a bit, before going back to fight against his female counterpart.


Later

The Rowdyruff boys were now in an alley, doing graffiti. The fight between them and the Powerpuff girls resulted in yet another draw between the two super powered teams, which means neither side managed to conquer the other. Brick suggested they now do graffiti, which he and Butch are doing, Boomer however is just sitting in a corner with a surprisingly thoughtful look on his face as he was looking at a sports magazine, at a page that was all about baseball.

His brother's noticed this strange behavior...

"Boomer, are you reading?..." Butch asked in confusion.

"I'm just looking at the pictures..."Boomer said as he put the magazine down.

"Well, stop it and come and spray something...'Brick said as he gave him his usual can of blue spray paint.

Boomer however, just looked at the can of spray paint enthusiastically, something that Brick noticed.

"What's wrong now?..."Brick demanded.

"Don't you guys get...I don't know... bored with this?...'Boomer asked suddenly.

"Bored with graffiti?..." Butch asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Not just that...with THIS..." Boomer said.

"What the heck are you going on about, Boomer?..."Brick demanded, wondering what's on his ditzy brother's mind.

"This...Everyday it's the same thing...stealing stuff...fighting...graffiti...don't you guys ever get..I don't know... bored with it..."Boomer asked.

Butch and Brick gave each other a look, then at Boomer and then at each other again, before they laughed loudly.

"Are you kidding? This is the life!...'Brick said flatly, not noticing the troubled look on Boomer's face.

"What's wrong with you Boomer? You've been acting weird all week...'Butch commented, having noticed that his brother would go spacey and get distracted much more than usual.

"Yeah Boomer...or are you even Boomer?...'Brick asked in a suspicious tone, wondering if Bubbles is impersonating him again.

Boomer just sent him an annoyed look at that.

"Yeah, I'm Boomer..."Boomer said in annoyance.

'Then what's the problem...We got it made...We can do whatever the heck we want, take what we want and beat as many people up for fun...it doesn't get any better than that...'Brick said.

However, Boomer had a troubled look on his face once again, and the two other boys noticed.

"What's up with you?...'Butch demanded.

"There...I... I just feel like...there might be something more..."Boomer said, and his brother's sent him a confused look.

"What more can ya want? We can do this forever..."Brick said to the blonde boy.

Suddenly Boomer's unenthusiastic look soon turned into a visible frown, like he was having an argument inside his own head and he is losing...It was really strange, even by their standards...

"I can't keep doing just...just THIS... Forever...I need more! I...I need to see places...I need to do other stuff...I got dreams...I need to get out of here..."Boomer shouted as he dropped the can of spray paint, much to the shock of his brothers.

Did he really just say, what they think he just said?

"WHAT?! NO ONE LEAVES THE ROWDYRUFF BOYS!..."Brick said angrily to his blonde brother, who isn't budging.

"I always do whatever it is that you two say to do...but no more! Now it's Boomer time!...'Boomer announced dramatically to his brothers... "I got a dream and I am going to live it...I am leaving to go fulfill my life long dream...'He continued.

"What stupid dream are you talking about, anyway?...'Butch asked, wondering just what is wrong with him NOW.

"I am going to be... a baseball star..." Boomer announced with stars in his eyes, as images of games and shiny trophies flashes through his little mind.

Butch and Brick heard this and...well, this is their response...

"YOU?! BASEBALL?!...'Brick and Butch exclaimed incredulously before they dissolved into uncontrollable, mean spirited laughter.

"And just what's so funny?!...'Boomer shouted, demanding to know just what's so funny about his dream.

'Oh please Boomer, you get spacey even during battle...there's no way you'll make the cut..."Brick said as he continued to laugh, not knowing or caring just how much those words hurt his blonde, brother.

"Yeah...you're always got your head in the clouds, you'll probably get distracted by some bug or something and just lose the game..."Butch continued before he laughed.

Boomer heard this and got more and more upset with their mean words and laughter. His lips quivered but his face is turning redder and redder, until he-

"SHUT UP!..."Boomer screamed loudly, enough to finally get his brother's attention and stop their laughter, but only due to being surprised by how loud he suddenly got.

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! I don't care what you two jerks have to say! I'm leaving to go become a baseball player and you guys can't stop me...The next time you see me, I'll have a shiny trophy with my name on it..."Boomer shouted before he immediately flew away.

Brick and Butch were silent, until it finally sunk in that their blonde brother is actually serious about this whole thing, and they realize that he really IS leaving them...Brick recovered from his shock and immediately started getting mad and yelling loudly.

"Boomer, get your butt back here, right now!...'Brick ordered but to his shock, Boomer ignored him and just kept flying.

"He's really going?..."Butch said, not believing what he is witnessing.

Brick was in shock, before he started shaking in rage and started yelling again.

"OKAY, FINE, GET LOST! BUT JUST REMEMBER, YOU'RE NOTHING WITHOUT THE ROWDYRUFF BOYS! YOU'LL JUST BE A LOSER!...'Brick shouted before Boomer finally left his view.

Boomer had heard them but just kept flying and flying in anger and hurt.

"I'll show you...I'll show you both..."Boomer grumbled as he continued to fly.

"Oh my, Brother's on his own now...this should be interesting..."The Narrator commented as he watched Boomer fly off, to go search for a way to make his dream come true.

The Tryouts


A/N:I hope you all enjoyed the first chapter of my new PPG story :)

For those who wonder why Boomer seems to like baseball, remember that in "The Boys are back in town", he can create a baseball bat out of raw energy, which may be his special power. I think deep down he might like the sport a lot, hence this story.


:) Till next time beautiful people, remember to read and review :)
