The City of Townsville! Is in the midst of a robbery! Who can help us now?
A green, blue and pink beam of light flies by
"Alright Townsville folk…" spat a masked robber. He was accompanied by three other masked robbers. "Everyone just stay down, put the money in the bag, and we'll be out of here nice and…"
Before the robber could finish his monologue, a hole blasted in the wall. Three little girls were standing there, but anyone who knew anything about Townsville knew exactly who these three girls were. They were the Powerpuff Girls Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup, and they were there to stop them.
"Oh if it isn't the powerpuff girlies. Too bad we already anticipated your arrival!"
"We'll see about that!" Blossom started. "Buttercup, you get to the other side of the bank! Bubbles, you stand outside and make sure that no one escapes!"
"Gotcha" Buttercup said. She flew over to the front of the bank, and landed on the front desk
"Okie Dokie" Bubbles replied. She floated outside and stayed up in the air. "Well this is going to be boring…"
"Alright you guys" Blossom started, "If you just give up now, we won't have to let anyone get hurt!"
"It's a little too late for that, isn't it? Boys fire!"
They robbers proceeded to fire their guns at them, causing the people in the bank to scream. Blossom and Buttercup flew around quickly, avoiding the shots. After a prolonged session of gunfire, Blossom grabbed one of the robbers by the shirt, and Buttercup grabbed two. This left just the leader standing, staring back at them.
"This is boring…" Bubbles said. "I wonder why they made me stay out here…"
"Help!" Bubbles heard it from a distance. She used her X-Ray vision to see past the trees that were blocking her view.
"Help! My cat is stuck in a tree!"
Now she could see it. There was a small grey cat that was hanging on to the branch of a tree, but he had to be at least a mile away.
"Well…I really should keep watch…" Bubbles said. She looked back at the kitten. It was too cute for her to pass up. She looked back at the bank
"Ahh, it's Blossom and Buttercup we're talking about here. They'll be fine." She flew off
"Why don't you just give up?" Buttercup said while holding two of the robbers up by their collars. She was talking to the one who had yet to be caught.
"Yeah" Blossom said. "You can't escape, so just give in!"
"Or can I?" The leading robber had some kind of trick up his sleeve. Neither Blossom nor Buttercup noticed until he pressed a grey button on his watch. Suddenly, a high pitched shriek came out. However, no one heard it. The sound was so high pitched that it was it was inaudible…to humans at least. Blossom and Buttercup could pick up on the sound very clearly, and it was deafening to them. Both of them dropped the other robbers, and fell onto the ground, covering their ears.
"Agh, It's… too loud!" Buttercup said
"Let's bail!" another robbers yelled. The four of them took off outside the door. The one with the watch on stopped in front of the door. "tah tah Powerpuff Girls…" he off his watch that was causing the noise and threw it back into the bank. This would ensure that they wouldn't be followed. He then took off with the others.
"Don't worry…" Buttercup said, "Bubbles is outside, she'll…stop them"
Bubbles was most certainly outside, but nowhere near the bank. She was instead, feeding the cat that she had just helped out of the tree. The woman who had called out for help walked out with more milk.
"Thank you so much for saving my cat" The woman said, "and I hope I'm not being a bother, you don't have to stay and feed him if you don't want to"
"no that's fine!" Bubbles insisted. "My sisters are doing fine anyway." Right when she said that, her ear picked up another call. Except this time, it was calling her name.
"Bubbles!!" It was her sister's voice.
"Ah, I think I might actually have to go. Good luck with your cat!" With that she flew away. In about twenty seconds she opened the door to the bank. She immediately covered her ears upon entering.
"What's that noise?!?"
"You're the farthest from the watch, get rid of it!" Buttercup insisted
Bubbles spotted the watch and laser eyed it, causing it to explode. The noise stopped. Blossom and Buttercup dusted off their shirts.
"Wow, I never saw you two fight by laying on the ground like that before" Bubbles said, giggling to herself
"It's not funny Bubbles." Blossom said, "The crooks got away."
She stopped laughing. "What?"
"you were supposed to make sure they didn't run out the door!" Buttercup yelled. "How hard of a job was that?"
One of the women behind the counter whispered to another man. "Woah, Powerpuff girls fighting. Does this movie come with free refills?"
"We can hear you!" Buttercup yelled. "Come on Bubbles" Blossom said "we need to talk somewhere more private!"
She grabbed Bubbles and flew away. Buttercup came right behind them. By "more private place" they naturally meant their bedroom.
"What were you thinking? This has to be the hundredth time you've screwed us over" Buttercup said
"Okay I'm sorry! It's just that there was a cat in a tree, and I thought that you two would be able…"
"A cat in a tree?" Buttercup said, "That's your excuse? Didn't you think that maybe a bank getting robbed might just be a tad bit more important than that?"
"I already said sorry…" Bubbles said
"What Buttercup is trying to say, is" Blossom started, "What we do is serious business, Bubbles. And a lot of times you tend to get, well, a little distracted. Not that that's entirely a bad thing, but you do it a lot and a lot of times our whole team suffers because of it."
Bubbles was already tearing up. "What are you saying?"
"We're saying that either you shape up or let us handle all of the work ourselves. We don't need a third leg that doesn't help when it's needed" Buttercup said sharply.
"Fine! If you don't want me here, then I'm leaving!" Bubbles flew out the window as fast as she could crying.
"Buttercup! Why did you have to put it that way?" Blossom asked angrily. "Because I'm tired of her always ruining things and making us look like fools in front of everybody. Don't worry, she'll come back. She has no place else to go."
About fifteen miles away from their house, Brick, Butch and Boomer were playing a game of cards inside of Fuzzy Lumpkin's trailer. Of course Fuzzy had no say in it, seeing as he was tied up in a corner and had a rag over his mouth. As far as the Rowdyruff boys cared, they found the trailer so it was finders keepers.
"Alright, I'm putting in two" Boomer said, putting two cards in the deck face down and taking two back out. "I'm keeping my hand" Butch said. "Yeah, I'm keeping my hand too" Brick said
"Okay, prepare to be amazed" Boomer said, "Two pairs! Beat that losers!"
"Oh no, the dreaded two pair hand. Unfortunately it has no effect on my full house!" Brick said, showing his hand. Boomers mouth was wide open. "What a coincidence, I have a full house too!" Butch said. Both Butch and Brick were laughing. "Well official game rules say that me and Brick have to take a cut of your sharings, Boomer!" Brick said. "But that's not fair!" Boomer complained. Brick and Butch high fived each other, still laughing. "Sorry dude" Brick said "Game rules". "You two cheated! You always do this to me!" Boomer yelled.
"Boomer, Boomer, Boomer" Brick said, floating over to his seat. "How are we supposed to cheat at a simple card game? You lost fair and square!"
"I might not be that smart, but I know what a rigged deck is!" Boomer said, "And plus, you were using your X Ray vision to look at my cards! I could tell!"
"What gave you that crazy idea?" Butch said, "But then again, we should be happy that you at least got an idea for the first time in your life!" Brick and Butch were laughing hysterically.
"You know, I really missed the humor in that" Boomer said crossing his arms.
"No surprise there." Brick said. "Anyway, use your old money, our new money to buy us some sodas. I want a 24 pack of Dr. Pepper. That should last me the night. You Brick?"
"Well, I was gonna ask for more cookies. But I want the ones that you can only get halfway across the country, you know, the really rare kind" He floated up to Boomer, "I think they're called Chips-a-doy!" he said smacking Boomer's forehead. Brick and Butch began laughing once again. "Dude, I don't think he can even spell that!" Brick said, gasping for air.
"You know what?" Boomer said, "Take your stupid money" he threw all of his money out at the table. It wasn't very much. "And I don't want this anymore!" He unhooked his Rowdyruff pin and threw it on the table too. Butch and Brick stopped laughing. "I quit! I don't need you two treating me like an idiot anymore."
Boomer flew away, leaving a trail of dark blue behind him.
"Hey Boom we were just messin with ya!" Brick tried to call out to him.
"Boomer?" "Bman?" Butch tried to yell out, "numbskull?"
He was long gone.
