I, Charles Michael Lee Barnes Jr. (A.K.A. ulti_sonic B.K.A. ULTIMAX), do not (in any way, form, or fashion) own any piece of the Power Puff Girls franchise or any thing else from the Cartoon Network (that includes Adult Swim). I did not get permission from Genndy T. to write this. It's a fanfic. That's it. Nothing else. Just… a fanfic.
I wrote this because I had a conversation with my friends about how stupid the Rugrats All Grown Up idea is. Honestly, they were better when they were babies. In our conversation I mentioned "if the PPG do that it better be good or else I will go *blah* *blah* *blah*" Ever since then I started drawing pictures of how the PPG would look like if they grew a little older. Then I had an idea for a story. PPG All Grown Up. Based on their current characters, this story will star the three loving and adorable PPG as young adults (not freakin' pre teens if you know what I mean) and all the things they would go through. Please enjoy.
(The Narrator starts out saying)
The City of Townsville about 14 years after the last episode of The Power Puff Girls a few things have changed. First of all, the original narrator has retired. He was replaced by yours truly, the new female narrator (she's a young British woman in her mid 20's) But I will take the abandoned name of the previous narrator, The Narrator. Next, the Mayor of Townsville (the Mayor) has been mysteriously murdered. His replacement was none other then the sexy Mrs. Sara Bellum (I can't say she is beautiful because we can't see her face but she has a beautiful personality). Some say she killed the Mayor. She doesn't say anything about it. Who cares? He was a terrible mayor anyway.
The little children at Pokey Oats Kindergarten have grown up to start their professions. A new batch of children is there now. The teacher is no longer Mrs. Keane. It's Miss. Utonium! Yes Prof. Utonium and Mrs. Keane finally got hitched. They have been married for 10 happy and successful years. How very good for them. But get this, Prof. and Keane had another little one. A boy! They named him Bruce. I knew Prof. was and Keane were doing more than just regular Chemistry in lab, if you know what I mean!
The villains are trying to make it as regular citizens, now. Their age has caught up to them. MOJO JOJO is a successful architect for the U.S. Military. Due to a near apocalyptic emergency MOJO save the world with his inventions. He finally saw the actual good he could do and gave up crime fighting and made amends to the Utonium Family. They are all family once more. HIM is a fashion designer. He's a little more…uh…feminine than usual. He refers to himself now as HER. Please don't ask. Princess has given up crime fighting because she is has learn the importance of investments. Making good investments made her richer than before. She does not have to work for the rest of her life. Also she has found love. She is engaged to Mitch Mitchellson (Michelson?). It's like I always say "there is always someone for everyone." Every other villain died. Oh yes, the Rowdy Ruff Boyz. Well, The Power Puff Girls are in relationships with the RRB. But I'll get to that a little later.
Speaking of the PPG, they too are grown up. Blossom is still the smart one. She has a junior noble prize for stumbling over the cure for the common cold. Why a junior noble prize, you say? The judges were extremely jealous. She is attending Townsville State University to follow in the footsteps of Prof. Utonium and study the vast world of Science and Chemistry. She has long red hair but is always tied into a pony tail. As always she would wear something that matches her pink eyes so today she has on a pink shirt with Cute as a logo. She is wearing a long blue jean skirt because "anything above the knees means you're a loose girl!" That is one of her beliefs. She likes to wear open-toe sandals and she wears glasses.
Blossom hangs out with friends who share the same values as her. Basically the geeks of the school. Blossom finally accepted her "geekiness" and started to do want she really wanted to do and that was to excel academically. She's really one of the cooler geeks, though. Her friends are community helpers and hostesses of any academic events. They even tutor Junior High School children.
Bubbles, the cute and adorable one, figured out how she can use her looks to her advantage. Sadly, she became a bit of a "loose girl," as Blossom would put it. She also attends TSU and she gets good grades with out doing the work. Well, the only work she does is on the boys at TSU. Even the professors (and the head master) fall helpless to her "talents." Not even girls can resist her. Every girl wanted to be her and every guy wanted to be with her. Some other girls wanted to be with her, too, but Bubbles is a boy's gal not a gal's gal. I don't think there's one boy she had not been with at least once. She still has pigtails and of course she's a blonde. She, like Blossom, always wears something matching her blue eyes. She has on the sexy, preppy look. She had on a baby blue blouse with the buttons undone enough so you can see her little cleavage. She had a short blue plaid skirt, short enough for everyone to see almost everything, clear as day (tsk tsk tsk poor girl). She had on knee high white stockings and black sneaker heels. She wears make up but not a lot because she has natural beauty. She does what she has to do to get by in this world. One good thing about her though is that little girl inside her shows sometimes. She still carries around Octy.
Bubbles really have a lot of friends. Her best friend, Krystal, hangs out with her the most. She is not as pretty as Bubbles but she's just as fun. Fun for parties of course. They do just about everything together. Krystal dates a quarterback from TSU college football team. His name is James "Jet" Sanders. He's a real bloke, if you ask me. Another interesting fact about our grown up Bubbles is that she still goes to the zoo to look at the animals. By herself of course. She's even a very active animal's rights activist. She goes by the name Bebe so she wouldn't get recognized. It will ruin her reputation at school. Our little angel Bubbles; was, is, and forever will be.
Now, Buttercup has grown up and is now making decisions for herself as a young lady. She decided to never let any man get the best of her. She decided to become (and it pains me to say it, but then again I can't say I didn't see it coming) a butchy little girl. She hangs out with a tough crowd of a rainbow assortment of people. She's into the dark/gangster thing, now (let's say a gothic, harajuku, dikish, thug appeal). Unlike her sisters, Buttercup always wears black. Today, being a hot day, she wears a white wife beater and baggy black jeans. Even though she always wears black she carries around a green bandana. Sometimes it's worn around her head, other times around her arm, leg, wrist, or hanging out of her pocket. Her tough crowd consists of females who are very much like her. They are all pretty but don't let that fool you. (At this point of the PPG's life, Buttercup probably looks better than her sisters.) She and her gang of gals, Lioness, date women and hate boys…well some boys. Buttercup still claims to be at least Bi Sexual. They are like extreme feminists. Can't say that's a bad thing, but I can't say it's a good thing either. She, too, goes to TSU.
Lioness consists of five members, A Japanese girl named Megumi "Mimi" Takashi, an African American named Felicia "Mocha" Patterson, a Native American named Megan "Red" Otamo, a French girl named Josephine "Belle" De Beauchamp, and Buttercup. They are just a gang of misunderstood girls who just don't give a f-u-c-k, pardon my spelling of vulgar language but that is their slogan. The put the Gang Green Gang, which grew dramatically in numbers after their encounter with Lioness, to shame. One day Lioness went up to the GGG and made them swore their allegiance to Lioness. Lioness is now over GGG.
That is all. This is Townsville now, lot more different than it was back then. Indeed it was.
OK…I was really just talking out my butt with this one but if you like I'll continue.

And people did like it! I was surprised even though it was just an intro. I did the very thing I hated which was wasting time to explain a story that is about to happen. But it was appropriate. I had to make some changes to it. Not much was needed but I think it's a lot better now.
