Powerpuff Girls meet the SWAT Cats
The city of Townsville on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon. A normal healthy and happy city hosting a haven against crimes of all hostility, the Powerpuff Girls. Yes those cute little Powerpuff girls with their darling good looks, crafty leadership, and never say die attitude.
"I'm tired of this." Buttercup grunted while pummeling one of Bubble's toys resembling a cat. "We save the city time and time again, but no one treats us like adults. We're just a bunch of 'babies' to them." She groaned on the word babies and returned to pummeling the stuffed animal.
"Hey!" Bubbles yelled snatching it from Buttercup, "Leave Mr. Kitty alone! how would you like it if he, if he..."
"If he what?" Buttercup stood not swayed by her sister's righteous speech.
"If he beat you up!" Bubbles cried before engaging in a series of violent sobbing.
"That's enough!" Blossom scolded at both of them from her position on the bed. "We're a team guys, nothing should come between us, and so what if they don't treat us like adults? We don't have to pay taxes do we?
Professor Utonium commented from down stairs surrounded by paper work in a half sob, "I do."
"We don't have to go to some boring, driving us to death, poorly paid, and over-exasperating job, do we?"
"I do." The professor commented while pulling some random levelers up and down in his city research funded lab.
"And most of all, we love our work."
"Yeah, your right." Buttercup chimed in agreement, her bad mood passing away."
"Yuppers!" Bubbles also agreed smiling now.
Although from downstairs a deafening cry could be heard from around the city and especially within the room of the girls as it echoed outward among the inhabitants, "I don't!"
Suddenly a tromping sound approached the girl's room upstairs and gained speed as it became louder. The door swung open and up against the wall to reveal nothing more than the shadow of the professor looming and breathing deeply before them as their eyes widened in parallel to their mouths and asked in unison, "Professor?"
To which he answered despite the sinister way he looked most cheerily, "We're moving," a smile now adorned his face and he happily walked inside saying, "Girls this has been a long time coming but a private investor as agreed to fully sponsor us in moving to a new city! Isn't this great?"
"But, professor. What about Townsville? Just then the emergency hot line rang and beeped, and even lit up it's red nose. Buttercup made a green streaking dash and answered it. She put the receiver to her ear as Bubbles came over to listen.
"What is it Mayor?" She listened much to her distaste and the frown on her face turned ugly as her eye brow arced and her teeth scrapped against each other, "You what?" she screamed, "We'll be right there, don't move."
The professor stood wide eyed at Buttercup, until she spoke again, "Mayor wants to see us." At the sound of her next words she started to cry, "We're being replaced." She sniffled.
Blossom and Bubbles looked at each other and the Professor started dancing around the room singing "We're moving, we're moving. This won't be like the last city girls! Private investor, lots of money, lots of money." His eyes soon spiraled downward and his pupil became replaced by dollar signs as the customary cash register sound accompanied that action.
* * *
Soon after at the Mayor's office in city hall.
A stream of tri-colored lights entered through the window and then materialized into the Blossom, Buttercup and Bubbles. Blossom burst out first asking, "Mayor how could you..." Her sentence stopped full blast as she saw them, two suspicious villainous looking men dressed in cat costumes and flight suits talking with the mayor. They looked fully armed to the fang and claw, and the worst of all those pupil-less, terrifying, ominous looking features they weren't wearing any shoes.
"Don't worry Mayor!" Blossom shouted, "Powerpuff girls to the rescue!" The three sprang into action and charged at the two suspicious cat characters. Casually the one with stripes on his arms dodged, while the other one who was a bit slimmer and shorter than his accomplice jumped over the girls aided by the Mayor's desk. "They looked like drunken pilots on Halloween," Blossom commented in her mind.
The mayor shouted, "Stop, stop what are you doing girls?" He pressed the intercom and summoned his only hope, "Ms. Bellum come immediately! Oh, and oh yes bring some coffee too." He jingled his nearly empty mug swirling it around taking the few lasts sips so that she could hear through the intercom.
She only responded, "Yeah, yeah I'll get your darn coffee you little..."
The last word was cut off as Stripes was slammed against the Mayor's desk nearly breaking it and Stripes's back in two. Stripes groaned and got up hurling Blossom at Bubbles with a vengeance and held his back with one paw and then propped the other towards them as if he were aiming. A small metal platform from the top of his hand clicked upwards and then shot of stream of rope tying the two up.
Slim was getting pummeled by Buttercup only to have him throw a small pepper bomb into her face, temporarily blinding her and giving him the chance to take his naked foot with claws extended, slamming it against her head. He then tied her up and threw her to the other girls. The grils seemed quite surprised and blinked.
"Hey, have we just been defeated?" Blossom commented in surprise. A worried Mrs. Bellum came through the door and dropped the coffee rushing over to the girls.
The Mayor had only one thing to say, "Oh pooh."
"Mayor this is just what I mean," Ms. Bellum said untying the girls feverishly, her head blocked by the crushed desk from all camera views, including the rear one where her hair was more than sufficient. "This 'Radical Squadron; SWAT Team is no replacement for our girls."
"Yeah," Bubbles commented half dazed, "And while where at it why are there three of you Mayor?" She seemed quite dazed and Ms. Bellum took her up and hugged her against her chest.
Stripes comment, "Hey Ms. Bellum, after your done with her how's about I get a hug, eh?" Slim jabbed Stripes in the ribs causing his back further pain for the rude remark.
"Why you bad kitty man!" Ms. Bellum held her back.
"We meant them no harm," Slim broke into to Bubbles rage. "We were summoned here by the Mayor and these hoodlums attacked us!"
"Girls I think it's time for you to meet your replacements," The Mayor said proudly stepping down from his desk. "Girls meet, T-Bone," pointing at Stripes, "and this man-er kitty is Razor." he concluded pointing at Slim.
"Mayor even their names sound rotten, don't trust them."
"Why you little punks," T-Bone yelled and then fell to the floors on his knees, "For girls you sure pack a punch."
"That's nothing villain." Blossom shouted getting up and facing him, the two seemed almost level with each other. While T-Bone was kneeling, their gazes meet in conflict as their eyes expressed rage against one another.
"Now, now everyone violence solves nothing except crime." The Mayor commented adjusting his purple suit which was in the poorest of all taste, "These heroes volunteered to come to our city on a regular basis since your taking over most of their original jurisdiction in...er what city was that again?" He asked turning to Razor.
"It's MegaKat."
"Me-ga Cat City? Oh like Mega-Man!"
"Uh- yes sir."
"Well there you have it, we're taking the Swat Cats off their normal beat and making them real members of our police force, pay and all. Much better than their current situation being half vigilantes."
"Vigilante? Mayor your not serious!" Blossom moaned.
"Mayor you can't!" Buttercup sobbed.
"Now, now girls. Their mayor, a golfing partner of mine, has agreed with me to establish you three girls as a part of the eh, oh what was that police squadron called again Ms. Bellum?"
"The 'Enforcers' Mayor."
"Ah yes," he said raising his arms into in the in admiration again and again, "a startling bunch, a mighty strike force. I'm hoping that you girls will develop into fine agents of law enforcement under their Commander Feral."
T-Bone and Razor seemed to look at each other with a frown on their faces, made extreme by their black masks and pupil-less eyes that glowed a strange white.
Blossom turned to see their expressions and then T-Bone faced her again, still kneeling from the pain.
"Now after a quick trip to the medical facility T-Bone and Razor will be as good as new. I suggest you girls start packing for your new home."
"Thank you for everything girls," Ms. Bellum said while hugging the three of them, and commented not looking at T-Bone, "Wipe that smile off your face buster or I'll spray water on you."
T-Bone complied and stopped smirking. Razor helped him up and the two made their way downstairs after Razor said "See you in the morning on Monday Mayor."
"Bright and early!" replied the mayor happily wiping his monocle.
The Powerpuff girls however sobbed and then broke out of Ms. Bellum's embrace and speed back home in the usual green, red and blue colors. Secretly Ms. Bellum whispered, "Good-bye girls."
* * *
That night, at the home of the Girls, Powerpuff.
Blossom and Bubbles got to packing as Buttercup sat in a corner pondering profusely. Her sisters quietly worked while she sobbed in the corner trying to consider what may be happening, a plot, an evil scheme of Mojo Jojo, or perhaps, as she realized picking herself up from the corner and whipping a tear from her eye, this is reality.
"Buttercup I really wish you would help us, " Just then the professor entered, all full of cheer with a grin on his face, interrupting Blossom.
"Now girls I want you to go sleep early, we're leaving for MegaKay city at 6:00 am sharp."
"But professor," Bubbles pleaded, "Why so early?"
"Because Megakat city is over 6 hours a car drive away Bubbles."
Yeah, that should explain the difference in race shouldn't it? Oh why couldn't we get a real writer?
"Oh, why can't we just take a stupid plane?"
"Because Buttercup I don't have the money, once we get there however that's another story." He sat down on the bed and took Blossom in his lap. "Now once we get there, we get our own apartment suite. Bigger than our house." His grin widened as he continued and his eyes followed suit, "That Mayor Manx and commander Feral are willing to do anything for us, and that reporter Ann Gora is setting up for interview once we settle in. Oh girls it will be great and a learning experience for you all in the art of discipline and control of your powers under commander Feral."
"Well, I guess so. But professor besides the mayor," The professor cut her short.
"Don't worry Blossom, there is an assistant deputy mayor who does all the work for him, and her name is Callie Briggs."
The three all collectively breathed a sigh of relief at that. "Now all of you into bed," the professor said while getting up and retrieving the suitcase from the floor, "Remember girls bright and early."
"It has been an exhausting day, "Blossom said before her eyes closed and the lights were switched off.
"Good night girls."
To witch they all responded, "Good night professor." And fell asleep.
The next day after a furious breakfast, a quick shower, and an even quicker dressing period.
"Chance get up now." There was a bit of sternness in Jake's voice, although his companion had not listened to his advise again and spent his nights mostly drinking milk and watching 'Scardy Cat' on that gosh forsaken cartoon network. "Chance...Ms. Briggs is in danger." It was his last resort, although a dirty trick the ace had played it's hand and within a split sec and turn of cloth his partner had under gone a strange transfiguration from a bed washed sleeper, to a heroic crime fighter in a flight suit.
"Jake whats wrong with you suit up! We've got a job," Jake cut T-Bone short. I was about to tell you the same thing, I packed your things and the Turbo-Kat needs one last check up before we go. Be a pal?"
"Yeah, yeah. Don't pull that again." T-Bone said leaving the bedroom pointing his finger into Jake's stomach.
"I wouldn't dream of it." Jake chuckled.
"Girls! Girls Wake up!" The professor cried. "We need to leave now. Ten minutes ago, up and atom! I always wanted to say that." He said with a chuckle.
"Yeah." Blossom said getting her dress on.
"Ok." "Buttercup said brushing her teeth.
"I'm not a kitty." Bubbles replied groaning still in bed.
After a few moments of intense morning rituals the Powerpuff girls became travel ready. The professor got into the car and girls speed into it in the tri-colored light fashion of which only they knew how to do and buckled up.
"Now girls it's going to be a long trip so we're going to need something to keep our minds off the journey."
"Ok professor, " Bubbles said thinking of their new home while Buttercup turned around and said one last teary good-bye to Townsville. It moved farther and farther away they passed the to Townsville bay-bridge. "Turn on the radio!" bubbles suggested as they crossed entirely leaving Townsville behind, Buttercup turned around and faced the back seat of the professor as Bubbles sat in the middle and Blossom over behind the empty passenger side seat, which would remain empty after the shot gun calling incident forevermore.
"No problem sweetie." he turned the dial much to his dismay and shuffled through the country, hip-hop, and classical music trying to find something pleasing to them all. "Ok lets not listen to music. Lets sing something ourselves."
At this notion Bubbles nearly busted a gut and giggled insanely as she began think of their new home, "999 bottles of milk on the wall. 999 bottles of milk..." The song was joined in expect for a slightly disgruntled Buttercup.
Moments later. In the not so Townsville MegaKat city that resembles Townsville in every way expect for the fact that they are cat people and all.
A large black ship took off from the lower west side of town. It's ascent was quick, but it's kinetic forward force slowed as the occupants take one good last look at their beloved city.
"It's a pity. We can't protect those we love without endangering them and exposing ourselves because of that blasted Commander. If it wasn't for us disregarding his orders that one time, that one time, Callie wouldn't even be alive…" T-Bone growled violently pushing the in the vectors for Townsville.
"It's just better this way, now both cities will have legal protectors fully capable of protecting them against whatever comes ether sides way."
"What kinda villains do you think we'll be up against?"
"Some joker named Mojo Jojo for sure, I hear he's a genetically engineered monkey or something." Razor said confirming the coordinates and putting the weapons system on stand-by.
"Whats next? Monkeys that walk and talk all on their own?" The two laughed only to cut themselves short as they thought of were they were going.
The tall towers of MegaKat were hardly visible a few seconds more and the Turbo-kay began its journey to the little city of Towsnville.
"Your sure these girls have what is takes?" Razor didn't say anything, he simply poked T-Bone in the back. For a brief moment the Turbo-Kat flew almost crooked.
"3 bottles of milk on the wall three bottles of milk..." Buttercup had nearly heard enough, at least it would be over soon. "You take one down pass it around..." Blossom and the professor were no longer singing and merely nodding their head as Bubbles droned on in her siren song. "2 bottles of milk on the wall." Suddenly it became too quite.
Buttercup yelled out, "Why the heck did you stop at 2?!"
Bubbles only giggled, "Ticks ya off, eh Buttercup?" To which Buttercup only responded by clunking her on the head.
"Professor!" Bubbles cried out.
Several hours later.
"Professor!"
"Nock it off Buttercup!
Still more hours latter
"Blossom!"
"Buttercup get a hobby!"
Even more hours still.
"Razor stop it!" The wings of the Turbo-Kay nearly went perpendicular with the ground. "How much farther?" Finally they reached their destination.
"Finally we reached our destination."
Didn't I just say that? Perhaps it bears repeating.
"Finally we've reached our destination. Buttercup, you can stop hitting Bubbles now."
"Good."
"Where, where am I?" Bubbles said disoriented and then suddenly pickup her batter body she leaned our Blossom and gasped.
"What is it?" Blossom asked as she fought for a far view.
"Look." The citizens, every last one of them seemed like enormous cats on hind legs wearing clothes meant for people.
"What an interesting culture." The professor commented while he turned and nearly hit one the denizens as they scurried to the other side of the street and raised their fist at the car that nearly ran them over with appropriate screeching in cat vernacular.
As the car past a near-by construction site on the way to the apartment suite the local workers stopped and started yelling comments at the girls starring through the window on Buttercup's side.
"Cat calls." Blossom commented waving back.
"Here we are…wow." The professor said nearly stopping in the street and then pulled into the private garage. It was guarded by a strong looking cat man in gray and with an "M" patch on the side of his jacket. The professor presented his papers.
"Why good afternoon Mr. Enforcer." he said handing them over, the cat man gave him a suspicious look and peered for a moment from beneath his sunglasses and took the papers. He looked them over twice and nodded.
"Good evening Professor Utonium. The Commander is waiting to greet you in your suite upstairs. Have a wonderful night." He smiled and tipped his hat at the girls and lifted the orange gate preventing their entrance before hand.
"Isn't this great girls?" The professor asked repeatedly. "Oh boy! Look." Their attention was turned as the professor parked toward the cars of the garage.
"Every single last one of the cars…" Blossom began.
"They're, they're all…"
"Sedans." Buttercup concluded.
"Mmmm." The professor said half enchanted as he put the car in park, "Sedan."
The family of four took the elevator up, the transparent nature of the glass betrayed all but the beauty and scenery of MegaKat that a normal metal elevator's secrecy could not fathom. They reach the 40th floor of the apartment complex to find a strange, tall looking stranger that awaited them as soon as the doors of the elevator opened. He wore a half button gray trench coat and carried himself in a quite a unique military fashion, and one of his eyes seemed always fixed on the girls through the remainder of the conversation.
As professor Utonium stepped out of the elevator with his bags the man immediately took them from him and smiled falsely.
"Welcome dear Professor Utonium. We have been expecting you," He took his freehand and gave the professor a hearty pawshake.
"Come, let me take those bags and show you to your room. The mayor is waiting to meet you and your…children." The last word of that sentence game all too plainly to Blossom, this cat man seemed almost as transparent as the glass of the elevator.
Bubbles however, seemed infatuated and curios looking all different direction of the gorgeously decorated hallway with the crystal lighting and sparkling wallpaper that resembled gold in some fashion. Buttercup on the other hand held her arms folded and stood in ghostly parallel with the strange man.
"Before I forget," the stranger started talking in his seemingly false nice tone, "My name is Commander Feral. I keep the law and order of MegaKat city and I command all the enforcers therein."
"Goodness," the professor said more interested in the style of the wallpaper and rich paintings to turn and face forward, yet answered anyway, "You must be one busy kitty."
The man laughed hoarsely, "All too busy my dear professor, all too busy." He opened the door that proclaimed the number '432' and gave the professor the key.
They four walked in and the Commander waved his hand as if presenting the room and then put down the bags. The professor, Buttercup, Bubbles and even Blossom stood gaping at the enormity that was the apartment. There was a staircase that led down several floors to different rooms a den and a work-study area, not to mention a complete kitchen with a fully stocked refrigerator with all sorts of goodies not worth describing.
A stout cat man about three quarters the professor's height approached them and extended his hand towards the professor and the girls. He was accompanied by a woman in a red dress, not unlike the one Ms. Bellum would wear, although she was a cat person and her hair was blonde and much straighter than that of Ms. Bellum.
"Greetings and welcome," the cat man in a strongly unfashionable brown suit and broken Scottish or perhaps Irish accent said, "I am Mayor Manx, I control the politics of MegaKat city."
The girls looked almost questionably at him, then the woman in the red dress winked at them and said, "My name is Callie Briggs Girls, I'm the deputy mayor and Mayor Manx's assistant." The girls breathed a collective sigh of relief. All the while Commander Feral kept a straight eye on them, while one focused on the mayor and the professor.
The conversation continued a moment while Ms. Briggs showed the girls the play area and gave them envelope in secret. Meanwhile the Commander, the Mayor showed the Professor and MaryAnn all the wonderful equipment available to him at the comforts of his new home and told him of the lab they had provided at the enforcer fortress.
"Well it's getting late, we had better leave them to get some rest from their journey, see you bright and early Professor." The mayor said waving good-bye.
"I'll stay in touch girls," Ms. Briggs said leaving their room and joining the Mayor.
Commander Feral approached the girls and said to them sternly, "See you
bright and early…children." He left quite quickly for walking and smiled at the professor before leaving, and resumed his military pose.
"Bye-bye Professor," MaryAnn cheered, "Be sure and tell me when we all here, plumb get off that island," and she left in the elevator down the hall with the others.
"Bye-Bye!" the professor yelled after her, "Tell Ginger I'm working on it! What nice people, eh girls?" he stood perplexed at them and their expressional frowns. "Girls?"
"Professor, "Blossom began, "Commander Feral isn't what he seems.
"Oh he's just old military style thats all, I'm sure we can all just get along. Now get some rest tomorrow is a big day for us all." With that he left for his room.
"Oh that went over smooth," Buttercup protested, "Now we have Commander Cat-face on our prissy pussy cat list and we still don't know whats going on."
"At least Ms. Briggs seems helpful," Bubbles said opening the letter. "I wonder who it's from." She said while unfolding it, and as she did a small brass key fell out. While listening to the contents dictated by Bubbles, Blossom picked it up and stared at it.
"Dear Powerpuff Girls," she said breaking off from the letter, "That's us."
"We know." Buttercup said impatiently.
"Dear Powerpuff Girls,
We send our warmest regards and warnings to you of MegaKat city. If at any time you question the loyalty of Commander Feral, simply visit the lower west side of town and use this key to enter the junkyard. An answer is waiting for you there.
Sincerely yours,
The SWAT Cats
P.S. You need to see past an illusion if you wish to have a 'Chance' of winning. Never 'Jake' around."
"Don't they mean 'Joke' around? And why is Chance capitalized?"
"I don't know Buttercup, but one things for sure. I'm more than certain Feral is up to something." Blossom said turning the key in her hands.
With that, our story ends, for now.
And so the day is saved thanks to…No one. The world wasn't really saved yet because the main part of the plot wasn't revealed. I told you we need a better writer.
Ok, fine I will say it. And so the letter is read once again thanks to, The Powerpuff Girls! Now that was just stupid…
