"All units, head for New Townville Hall," a voice said over a police feed.
"HIM has been apprehended, Powerpuff Girls Z is on route for Asylum Island," said a second voice.
In the middle of the sky, three blur race over cars, ambulances and police blurs were three teenage girls. One girl was wearing a pink pink swimsuit with a skirt, with black finger-less gloves, pink shoes, and a pink vest that had a heart on the back and a "P" on the front. The second girl was wearing the same thing, only light blue. The third girl was wearing the same as the other two, only green and her vest was yellow.
Their are Momoko, Miyako and Kaoru or better know as Hyper Blossom, Rolling Bubbles and Powered Buttercup.
In in Blossom's hand, bound in ice handcuffs, was a bizarre-looking with tan-like skin color, crab claws for hands, a jester hat, a red tunic with a heart shape broach and wears stripping socks with one being black and white and the other red and black, with Mary Jane shoes.
"You girls ready must like me to give me a ride." muttered HIM, before he giggled a little.
'Oh, please!' Blossom thought, rolling her eyes.
The Powerpuff Girls Z flew into the center of a deep forest, toward an old factory that had been converted into an insane asylum. It was known as Home for Black Rays Criminals or Black Ray Asylum for short
A few moments later, the girls had HIM on his knees in front of a pair of huge high-tech metal doors, which grinded and smoothly slid open for the heroines and their captive. Blossom pushed the god-like forward before advancing forward into the building with her friends following behind her. Once inside, a group of guards walked forward with one REALLY rounded man taking up the front.
"OH, LOOKIE WHO IT IS! MY OLD PAL, WARDEN IDIOT!" laughed HIM. "Love what you've done with the place!"
"That's Warden Sharp to you!" snapped Warden Erin Sharp, his bulk making him look intimidating "Officer Holes!"
A burly man walked forward. HIM smirked at him as he approached.
"Hiya, Holy! How's the wife and kids? Did you miss me?" asked HIM, before Officer Holes grabbed him by the suit collar.
"Quiet, freak! There's a lot of people here who really want to have a word with you," snarled Holes before he and several other guards led HIM to a gurney.
"Seriously? I got two legs that ain't broke, you know," said HIM as the guards fastened the cuffs on the gurney to his ankles and wrists with ice. "Now, now, not so tight, you'll crease the suit!"
As HIM gave another giggle, Warden Sharp gave HIM a look of the utmost disgust. "Get that filthy degenerate out of here!" he barked.
"There, he back were he belongs, mission accomplished." Buttercup said, glad to see that joker on ice.
"Can we go home now?" Bubbles asked, getting a little scary of the place.
"Warden, something doesn't feel right about this... I'm going with him," Blossom said, her voice had a soft growl in it.
The other two was shock and watch as their friend walk in the Asylum and follow after her. Blossom walked with the guards as a way to ensure that HIM didn't get a chance to escape. As they walked they passed by several monsters that HIM had made with his black powder, cheering him on. "Hey, look it's HIM!" "It's the boss!" "HIM! HIM! HIM!"
"Shut up and keep moving!" yelled a Factory Guard.
And, of course, HIM had his own two bits to put in.
"I'm telling you, the state of the wiring in those federal penitentiaries is just downright shocking! My boys could've been hurt in that...unfortunate fire," commented HIM.
Before long, they had reached a platform that lead to an elevator shaft, and were held up by a couple of doctors.
"Just need to check your prisoner, Officer Holes," said a doctor.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, just be quick about it," grumbled Officer Holes.
"Only following procedure!" said the doctor, sounding a bit offended.
As the doctor looked over HIM, the devious lunatic almost made the doctor shit himself when he shouted "BOO!" and had a fit of giggles.
"Need to take my temperature? Because this ice had made me cool." HIM joke.
"Well, he's in good shape! Get him the hell outta here!" said the doctor.
With that, the voyage continued. But, the group had only gone a few steps when a dinging came on.
"Alert in Intensive Treatment. Category Nine patient in transit. Pacification system active. Shoot-to-kill permissions granted," said an automated female voice.
Suddenly, the atmosphere got very, very tense. "You heard the lady! We've got another psycho on the way!" barked one of the guards.
"Hey, Girls, can you feel the excitement in the air? No? Must be one of the guards, then," HIM asked then said.
As the elevator brakes squealed to a stop, The girls heard some very familiar growling noises... and it made Bubbles really scare. What emerged was a being that was neither human nor any kind of creature known to earth. Standing roughly 6'00" tall the being known only as Croc Hunter stood before them.
"Easy there… he looks angry." One guard said as Croc Hunter sniffed the air and growled. He then noticed a shakily Bubbles and growled before turning to her.
"What's he doing?" Another guard ask.
"I have you ssscent Rolling Bubbles. I will hunt you down. GGGRRRRAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHH!" snarled Croc as a shock from the collar he was wearing prevented him from doing much of anything aside from threatening the blue powerpuff.
Both Blossom and Buttercup stood in front of of Bubbles, protectively. None of the three could forget the first time they met Croc Hunter. It was also the day Bubble became scare of Croc.
"Get that animal under control!" yelled a Guard as the collar finished shocking Croc.
"A toy collar won't stop me from killing you, Rolling Bubbles and you two friends will follow!" snarled Croc.
"Try it scale brains!" Buttercup challenged.
Croc leered at the green heroine, before apparently deciding she wasn't worth it at the moment. As he lumbered off, Croc Hunter grumbled something that sounded like, "I'm gonna rip those color girls apart and eat their bones..."
Once Croc Hunter was well out of sight, HIM decided to speak up.
"That reminds me, I really need to get me some new shoes," he said.
This remark actually got a few chuckles from the Guards and maybe an inkling of a smile from Bubbles.
With the elevator now available, the transport crew entered and began to descend into the depths of the Factory.
"Whee! Great night for a party!" HIM cheered.
"Not where you're going," Blossom said, glaring at HIM.
HIM chuckled.
"Oh, the night is still young, Blossom. I've still got a trick or two up my sleeve... I mean, did it ever occur to you how strange it was that a fire at New Townville Jail caused hundreds of my faithful monster to be moved here?" he ask.
"I thought I told you to shut up!" yelled Officer Holes.
HIM chuckled once again.
"Oh, Holy, Holy, you really should learn to keep that fat mouth of yours shut. It'll get you into trouble," he growled.
Buttercup frowned. She was started to see why Blossom was bothering about HIM's capture... not that she was complaining about how she caught they jester, but it was just too easy this time... she could only think of three possibilities. A, They was just that damn good... true, but not likely. B, HIM was losing his touch... still not likely. Or C, he was after something else... but, what?
"Tell me something. You've never let us catch you this easily. What are you really after?" Buttercup asked.
"Oh, nothing much, just hundreds dying in pain and fear, all of their meaningless lives brought to a horrifying conclusion, thanks to you and a book of matches... was that the answer you wanted?" asked HIM.
Before Buttercup could press further, however, the lights in the elevator went out, throwing everyone into complete darkness while HIM laughed his head off.
"What's going on?"
"Get a flashlight!"
"Someone get a light on him!"
But, when the lights came back on, it turned out that Buttercup had the situation, and HIM's neck, well in hand.
"What? Don't you trust me?" choked HIM.
"Buttercup let him go." Blossom said.
Buttercup slammed HIM head back against the gurney as the elevator slowed to a halt.
"Our... guest... has arrived."
As the elevator doors opened, the entourage entered the primary part of the Intensive Treatment Wing. As the guards wheeled HIM away, the girls caught sight of an older man wearing a white lad coat, with black shoes and black hair that was pointed in one direction.
"Another long night, Professor?" Blossom asked, approaching the man.
Professor looked up from the paperwork he was filing and smiled.
"HIM invades city hall and holds the mayor hostage, leaving it to me the juggle SWAT teams, the media, and you three. Yeah, it's been a helluva of a night," The Professor said, shaking each girl hands.
Blossom nodded in agreement.
"Hopefully it'll be the last one we'll ever have with him," she said, following the The Professor down the corridor, only to be stopped by two Factory Guards.
"Sorry, Powerpuff Girls Z, Black Ray Asylum staff only," said one of the guards.
The Professor frowned.
"I can assure ya, if anyone's qualified, it's the girls." He said.
The guard sighed.
"Look, we appreciate the assistance, but they'll unsettle the more violent inmates." he explained.
HIM laughed as he was led away in normal handcuffs.
"I think he's talking about you, girls. Don't be a stranger, you're always welcome here! Gotta say, it's good to be back!" he said as he passed the girls and Professor.
Bubbles frowned. Like with her friends something still didn't sit right about this particular capture of HIM...
The Professor seemed to notice how the girls was feeling.
"You okay?" He asked the powerpuffs.
The girls sighed.
"He surrendered almost without a fight...We don't like it." Blossom said as she walked to an observation window, watching HIM get carted off.
The Professor sighed as well. That did seem more than a little suspicious.
"At least he's back where he belongs." He said, joining the girls at the window.
Down in the Intensive Treatment Holding Cells, HIM seemingly tripped and fell down.
"Come on, get up!" snarled the guard who was escorting HIM.
HIM glanced at the Guard, before elbowing him in the chest, bringing him to his knees, and thus allowing HIM to get behind him and begin choking the poor Guard with the chain of his handcuffs.
"Oh no!" Bubbles shouted.
"HIM's loose!" Buttercup added.
"Professor, alert the Warden!" Blossom said as she tried to break through the window.
HIM, meanwhile, found great amusement in watching the doctor fiddle around with the keys in order to save the Guard.
"Hurry, we're losing him, Doc!" laughed HIM as the doctor freed the Guard, who was already dead.
HIM then kicked the doctor in the face, before leaning close to the Guard.
"The choke's on you," he whispered, before turning to face one of the cameras. "Honey, I'm home!"
"Come on in," said a female voice over the intercom, just before a nearby force field deactivated.
As HIM ran up to the open doorway, the girls broke through the window. The devilish god-like turned to face the powerpuffs.
"Welcome to the madhouse, Powerpuff Girls Z! I set a trap, and you sprang it gloriously! Now, what say we get this party started?" HIM said, smiley evilly.
With that, HIM made his escape as a small squad of his monsters surrounded the Powerpuff Girls Z. The force field also reactivated, preventing the girls from following the self-proclaimed "Reigning King of the world."
'Should've known it was a trap.' Blossom as the goon squad made its way toward her and her friends.
Without even a moment's hesitation, the goons began to attack the girls. As the powerpuffs fought off their attackers, HIM appeared on the monitors.
"Ladies and monsters, I apologize for this interruption in your regularly scheduled... entertainment, I suppose one could call it," HIM said as Buttercup bashed two thugs heads together, rendering them unconscious.
"Up until just a few minutes ago, I was going to simply kill everyone in the room, and then go to a tropical resort," As the lunatic said this Bubbles slammed a thug into a wall and knocked him out. One thug tried to surprise Blossom from behind, but she lifted up one hand and knocked out the thug. "But, then... well, you all know how much I love a captive audience."
No sooner had HIM finished his speech than did the girls finish of the last of HIM's monsters.
HIM scoffed.
"I'm just warming you up, Girls! Fresh from New Townville Prison, with a combined sentence of 732 years, it's... ding ding ding ding! Round 2! FIGHT!" yelled HIM.
As HIM finished speaking, a second group of thugs appeared, this one containing a few humans, appeared.
"For HIM!" yelled one of the thugs, right before Blossom nailed him with her Yo-yo.
A few minutes later, the Powerpuff Girls Z decked the last of their foes, sending him crumpling to the ground.
"And ding-a-ling goes the final bell, HIM!" Buttercup smirk.
The Professor then appeared on the monitors.
"We're stuck in here! That lunatic in full control of the security gates!" He said.
"We'll find him," Blossom said.
HIM's image then appeared in place of Professor's.
"Hate to break it to ya, Girls, but I'm in control of the Black Rays Asylum now! You're not going anywhere I don't want you to." HIM said.
"Say what?!" Buttercup ask angrily.
"Point is, I'm the laser pointer, you're the kitty trying to catch the dot. Got it?" HIM told them.
"If you think we're going to let you run-" Blossom snarled.
"Blah, blah, blah, always with the hero-speak! I'm getting bored watching you! Why don't you just come find me?" HIM asked.
With that not only did Professor's image reappear, but the force field leading out deactivated.
"You know it's a trap?" The Professor said.
"Yep," Blossom, before she and her friends started sprinting down the hallway after HIM.
Ok, first try at the Batman Arkham Game. I went with Powerpuff Girls Z, since I went to try using them again. I know HIM is nothing like The Joker, but think about HIM dress like a jester in Powerpuff Girls Z, so might as well. If I was to use the USA Powerpuff Girls, then Mojo Jojo would been the main villain. Most of the villains will be made up and some might be the girls enemies. I also hit some writer blocks with my other stories. I'll do them once I have a something to work with.
