Boomer/Bubbles-Read on!
The Weird Forest
"Who are you?" Blossom asked as she stared at the strange creature. It had the torso of a woman, but below her waist were the bluish scales of a mysterious fish. Her silver-ish grey hair hung in front of her chest, covering it modestly. The creature looked at her, smiling. Blossom looked around, it was if they were floating in nothing…is that how she swam in front of her. The creature smiled at her, as if she was happy to see her. "Who are you?"
"You'll learn my name soon, young one…just know that you are destined to save my world…you and the ones equal to you."
"Equal to me?" Blossom repeated. The creature nodded, stroking her hair. "What does that mean?" She sighed.
"The ones who are equal to you in power and strength. Now, awaken!" Her voice boomed as a sudden rush overcame Blossom and swept her away. It was like being caught in a whirlwind, suffocating her and disorienting Blossom until she blacked out.
Blossom woke up, gasping and sweating. She looked around. Her surroundings weren't her pink room with fluffy white carpet and an oak vanity with a heart shaped mirror. She was in the middle of a dense and thick forest. Millions of different sounds rushed to her, adding to the massive headache she already had. "Buttercup!" Birds flew when she yelled one of her sisters' names. "Bubbles? Bell?" Something rustled. "Anyone?"
"Oh, be quiet!" No…way…she turned around and came face to face with tired, red eyes. They widened and jumped back, scowling at each other. "What the heck are you-where are we?" Brick shouted.
"I was wondering the same thing!" Blossom said, rubbing her chin and looking away with a frustrated look. "Okay, what did you do?"
"Me? I haven't done anything! What makes you think that?"
"HIM?"
"Good point, but why would HIM send me here too? I'm his 'son'…in a way…" Brick reasoned.
"…True…but where are my sisters? Where are your brothers?"
"Sure, let's not worry about me…" They looked to the side and saw Brisk stumbling out with Black trudging after him. Tar followed, her tar-like fur had gotten sticks, stones, and leaves stuck in her and she furiously pulled them out.
"Brisk! Black, are you okay?"
"I woke up with a pounding headache on a rock…I'll live…"
"Well, we woke up in a pond…we'll live too." Black said, squeezing the remaining pond water out of her waist-long hair. The agitated nine year olds looked at their oldest siblings, waiting for a few answers. When they didn't answer, Black sighed. "Where the heck are we?"
"We have absolutely no clue. But if you guys are here, then the others might be here too. Let's go looking."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on there, Doll, what makes you think we're following a couple of Powerpuffs?"
"I'm NOT a Powerpuff! I'm a Rebel!"
"One," She slapped Brick, "don't call me 'Doll', and two, suit yourselves. Let's go, Brisk." They began trekking through the forest, disappearing instantly. Black looked at Brick, who was glaring in their direction.
"So, what now, Boss?" Brick jolted and looked around.
"We look for Butch, Boomer, and Blare! What else?" They went the opposite direction.
"Are we~"
"No."
Silence.
"Seriously~"
"No!"
Silence.
"…Didn't we pass~"
"We didn't!" Black sighed and looked at Tar. Tar rolled her eyes.
"We're lost~nya." She said. Brick shouted and threw his hat on the ground.
"We are NOT lost! We're…taking a detour." Black and Tar looked at him with skeptical expressions. "Okay, we're lost…what of it?"
"We probably should have stuck with Blossom~nya."
"Take that back." Tar was back to silent mode. Brick picked up his hat and brushed it off. "I'm sure we're making progress…maybe if we go that way instead." He turned to his left and kept walking. Black groaned in agitation. They had already tried flying in the air, and saw nothing, but thick and dense forest. She was hungry, it was humid, and Brick's crabby mood did not help matters at all.
"BOOMER? Where are you!"
Boomer woke up to see Bubbles sleeping soundly next to him. "OMG! My dream came true! I married Bubbles!" Boomer shouted, shocked. Bubbles woke up and stared at him.
"…What?" Boomer looked around. This wasn't a honeymoon suite…this was a forest. He looked at her slowly, blushing.
"Oh, uh…nothing…" Boomer stammered. "Look, we're…in…a…forest?" He looked everywhere, but Bubbles…so he didn't see her bright red face. "How the heck did we get here anyway?"
"I have absolutely no clue..." Bubbles admitted, getting up and brushing the dirt off her dress. "Why are we even together?"
"That...is an excellent question." Boomer said, getting up. "Brick!" Nothing. "Butch!" Nope... "Blare? Black!" Silence..."Boomer?"
"You're Boomer..."
"Oh yeah, right..." He blushed and went in some random direction.
"Where are you going?" He looked over his shoulder at her.
"I'm going to look for my brothers, duh." He disappeared into the deep brush. Bubbles looked around rapidly. The mysterious chirps and croaks...and hoots...and...well, this place was sorta spooky. There were twisted looking trees all over, stretching their thorny branches all over, covering the sky so only a few scattered speckles of light hit the dark green forest floor. Bubbles looked in the direction Boomer went.
"Wait for me!" She ran after him and soon found him sitting on a rock, looking at her.
"Chill out, Powderpuff. I didn't get too far...c'mon, let's go." He got up and kept walking with Bubbles following him. It was very dark, so Bubbles absentmindedly gripped Boomer's hand. "...Um...you okay?"
"I just don't want to get lost is all." It suddenly became very dark. "Wha? Wha!" Boomer looked up and saw the moon was suddenly out.
"That's strange...it was just daytime..." Bubbles whimpered. He looked at her. Those big, baby blue eyes of hers sort of lit up like his...kind of like neon lights. "Hey, don't cry. I won't let anything happen to us."
"Promise?"
"Promise."
"Okay...let's keep walking..." He nodded and felt her hand tighten. So, now they won't be separated.
She wanted no more then to knock that stupid grin right off his face...she was sure, it would be very pleasant...for her. Butch kept grinning as her scowl grew deeper. "Just admit it...you kidnapped me to a forest so you could jump my bones."
"Ahhhhh...nawh..." She did her best Michael Kyle impersonation before getting up. "I have no clue where we are...or why we're together..."
"I already submitted my theory."
"And it is rejected."
"Butters?" Bell came from behind, after struggling to get through thick brush and whining to a bored Blare. "There you are!" She hugged her. "Where are we?"
"That's the million dollar question, Bell." Buttercup said. "But I'm glad you're here...I was afraid I'd be left with Butch."
"Sorry, that dream won't be coming true in the near future." Buttercup was about to snap when Blare held his hand up.
"No point, Buttercup...he won't understand anything you say. Now, I take it no one knows why we're here...but if you guys are here, then the others must be around here somewhere." He said, logically. "I suggest we travel together and look."
"Why would we travel with Rowdyruffs?" Buttercup sneered, but then Bell pulled her to the side.
"We just might have to."
"Why?"
"Well, logically, the more members we have in our group, the safer we are. And...I have a better chance of asking Blare to carry me if I get tired."
"...Wow, you're shallow, but fine..." They turned back to the boys, who were looking at them with raised eyebrows. "Alright, so where should we go first?"
"That way!" Blare and Butch said, at the same time, but pointing completely opposite directions. They looked at each other.
"Since when do you decide?"
"Please, Butch, you couldn't find your way out of the bathroom."
"Girls, girls, you're both pretty," Bell said, "we're going that way." She pointed North and began walking with Buttercup behind her. Butch looked at Blare and he looked back. Both the boys sighed with defeat.
"She's your counterpart."
"I know, but at least I'm not a diva." They followed the girls.
Blossom-Did writing this chapter make you feel better, Zshi?
...Hardly, but it did take my mind off...Poookie...(begins crying)
Brick-I wonder why she was so attached to Pookie.
Buttercup-Her mom says it was because she was always waiting for Zshizshi after school and did everything with her...wow, she is torn.
Butch-...Make her feel better, Luka!
Luka-Hai! (rubs against me)
...(begins petting Luka)
Bell-Review!
