Bailey and Blair whipped around. Two boys, one in a dark red hoodie and black pants and the other in a blue hoodie, floated across from them. Both had their hoods up shielding their faces. The girls felt like they knew them but couldn't exactly figure it out.
"Who the hell are you?" Blair asked placing her hands on her hips.
The boy in the red hoodie put his hand over his heart pretending to be hurt. "I'm hurt that you, the Puffs, don't recognize us…" The boys let them think.
"The Ruffs!" Bailey squealed.
The one in the blue hoodie, Boomer, slid his hood off smiling at Bailey. His hair was almost as blonde as Bailey's but his eyes matched hers perfectly. "Hey Bubs."
Bailey blushed. "Hey Boom."
Blair groaned and slapped her on the shoulder. "Stop flirting."
Bailey looked away from Boomer. "Sorry."
"Brick."
"Hey Blossom," Brick slid of his hood and smirked. His fiery red hair was now past his shoulders but was pulled back and hidden under a snapback.
"Where's your other brother?"
"Seeking out your other sister."
BC closed her eyes for two seconds and next thing she knew she was slamming into something and crashing on to a building's roof.
"UGH!" She could feel the weight of something crushing her. When she opened her eyes she met a familiar dark green pair. "Butch?"
"You need to slow down," Butch smirked at her as he propped himself on his elbows.
"And you need to get off of me." BC pushed him off of her. "What are you doing here? I thought you left this city when we did."
"I did." Butch pulled off his hood of his green hoodie. BC noticed his pitch black hair was no longer spiked but now fell into his face.
"Why come back?"
Butch offered his hand but BC slapped it away and got up. "I could ask you the same thing."
The two green punks glared at each other with their arms crossed and chests out. Butch had a hard time focusing on BC's face when her newly formed body kept distracting him. It's been so long still he saw her and damn did puberty do her good.
"I asked you first," BC said.
"Okay fine but you'll have to catch me first!" Butch took to the sky at his top speed laughing the whole way.
BC grunted but took off after him. She followed for a bit but lost sight of his trail.
"That ass," BC mumbled.
"You took the words right out of my mouth."
BC turned to find Butch staring at her in a way that made her core heat up. Luckily it was dark out so Butch couldn't see her cheeks flush a bit.
"Prev," She shot back.
"Oh you know you like it." Butch floated closer to her so they were only inches away.
"In your dr…"
Butch didn't let her finish. He had her pinned up against a building wall with his body pinned against hers. The two just stayed there glaring and maybe even gazing into each other's eyes. Both of their minds drifted back to a similar situation from when they were younger but it was the time where the two didn't have raging hormones. Butch had his one hand next to her head while the other went for her mask. But BC snapped out of her trance and slapped his hand away.
"Aw come on. Just one little peak?" Butch went to try again but this time BC shot her energy blast at him, emitting a bright green light. (Don't know what it's really called)
"Fuck!" Butch recovered quickly before falling out of the sky. "Damn you got stronger."
BC just smirked. "I know."
"BC you there?"
She heard Blair's voice. Remembering the com link in her mask she answered, "Yeah. So is Butch."
"We figured since Brick and Boomer are with Bubbles and I."
"Great," She mumbled.
"Meet at the top of the TechCom building and bring Butch with."
BC groaned. "Fine."
"Where we going?" Butch asked.
"You'll have to follow to find out."
Butch glared at a smirking BC who took off towards the middle of the city. First he adjusted himself, down there, so it wasn't too obvious. Then he followed her from above watching her movements.
Brick and Blossom were standing at the edge of the TechCom building's roof while Boomer and Bubbles were enjoying each other's company on the opposite side.
"Why come back now?" Blossom asked breaking the silence.
Brick looked over at her. As she stared off into the distance Brick noticed that under the moon light Blossom's hair had more of a fiery flare to it and he couldn't help but to smile. He had always liked how their hair matched especially when they got angry and their hair looked like it was on fire.
"We didn't leave… well Boom and I didn't, we stayed."
"Why did Butch then?"
Brick shrugged his broad shoulders. "Don't know. He doesn't talk about it." He paused and looked at the cars and people below on the streets. "He had only recently surfaced after he left 5 years ago. I guess he just got tired of living in Townsville."
Blossom stole a glance at Brick. He looked to be in deep thought either about Butch's departure or if he should have left when his brother did. But he just shook those thoughts out of his head for now.
"Why'd you come back?" Brick turned his body to her.
"Family reasons," Blossom turned and looked a Bubbles flirting with Boomer.
Brick remained silent as he watched Blossom as she collected her thoughts.
"What the hell's gotten you two all gloomy?" Butch floated up across from Brick.
Then Buttercup floated up next to Butch. "Isn't that supposed to be our jobs?"
Blossom and Brick shot their siblings a look as Buttercup and Butch laughed.
"Buttercup!" Bubbles darted to her and jumped into her arms.
Buttercup let the name slide and smiled at her younger sister. "Hi Bubbles. What's got you bubblier than normal?" Bubbles looked back and Buttercup followed her gazed. She saw a familiar blonde and red head. "Brick. Boomer."
Boomer waved as Brick just nodded.
Buttercup allowed Bubbles to slip back onto the roof when Boomer asked, "So what now?"
"Well Boom… we go," Brick said. "We made ourselves knew once again."
Boomer winked Bubbles. "See ya Bubs."
"Bye Booms," She smiled at him.
Blossom and Buttercup rolled their eyes.
"Later Buttercup." Butch teased while smirking.
Buttercup swung at him but Butch laughed and flew away with Boomer. Brick just winked at Blossom and then followed his brothers.
"Well that was… interesting," BC stated as she stepped onto the roof's ledge.
Blair nodded in agreement.
"Boomer got really hot," Bailey stared off dreamily.
"Puberty did all of them well," Blair said watching the guys trail disappear.
"You two are gross." BC groaned and rolled her eyes.
Back at the house the girls changed out of their outfits into their PJs and headed straight to bed to have enough rest for the first day of their new school.
On the outskirts of the city laid an abandon warehouse. There The Ruffs had fixed it up and has lived there every since they got out of jail 5 years ago. Now it felt like a real home and not like the one when Mojo Jojo ruled over them.
"Damn I didn't think Bubble would look like that!" Boomer exclaimed when the guys got back to the house.
"Yeah… puberty did each of them good," Brick added.
Boomer punched Butch's shoulder. "What's got you so quiet?"
Butch glared at his brother.
"Oo I know…" Brick crossed his arms. "It has to do with a certain green punk chick, doesn't it?"
Boomer and Brick teased Butch some more.
"Shut the fuck up!" Butch boomed.
"We are so right!" Brick high fived Boomer as then ran from their pissed off brother.
Butch didn't bother chasing after them. Growling he just went to his room, plopped down in his bed and drifted off to sleep but now before thinking off his favorite punk girl.
