Chapter 2 A new Babysitter?!

Mitch slowly opened his eyes.His shoulders hurt more than ever.The hospital room he was in was white all over, and from what he could tell, it was 9 at night, meaning he had been sleeping almost all day.The Powerpuff girls were in the hospital chairs beside him and so was the girl who called the ambulance.The girls were busy talking to each other, so Mitch decided to get their attention.

"Hello!!!!Earth to sissies!!!!I'm in incredible pain!!!" Mitch said loudly.Each girl's head snapped to him at the same time.

"Good thing you're ok!!!We were so worried!!" said the girl who called the ambulance.Mitch looked at her curiously.

"Thanks for calling the ambulance, but who are you?!" Mitch asked.The girl laughed.

"I'm Lynn Thorpe.I guess I should have told you earlier.How are you doing?" Lynn asked.

"Good, except for the fact that both of my shoulders hurt like heck!How much blood did I lose?" Mitch asked.

"You lost a lot!"said Bubbles.

"What did the big wolf look like?" asked Blossom.

"Well, it had blood red eyes, red claws, and black fur." Mitch said.

"Wow!!Were you scared?!" asked Bubbles.Mitch smiled boastfully.

"Of course not!!No dumb wolf can scare me!!" said Mitch.

"Funny, I heard you screaming before I called the ambulance." Lynn said, making Blossom and Bubbles laugh.Mitch looked at Buttercup, who hadn't said anything yet.Buttercup looked relieved and scared.She floated to Mitch and hugged him tightly.Blossom and Bubbles laughed harder than ever.Buttercup flew away from Mitch, who was blushing, and held a fist to the giggling girls.

"Laugh any more, and I'll give you guys a knuckle sandwich!!" Buttercup yelled.Blossom and Bubbles laughed more when they saw Mitch's blushing face.Lynn giggled.

"We'll go and leave you two lovebirds alone." Lynn said, dragging Blossom and Bubbles, who were still laughing, with her.Buttercup was still shaking with anger.

"So...does this make us girlfriend and boyfriend?" asked Mitch.

"NO!!!!" yelled Buttercup angrily.She turned and floated out of the room.Lynn came in and smiled.

"Hey Mitch, I get to babysit you!While you were sleeping, your parents checked up on you.They won a prize in a random hospital raffle drawing, so they are going to Hawaii for a week.While I babysit you, you're girlfriend and her sisters are welcome anytime!!" Lynn said.Mitch blushed deeply.

"I ain't a baby!!And she ain't my girlfriend!!" Mitch said hotly.Lynn giggled.

"The doctors said you are ready to go, so come on, I'll take you home, you just have to show me where it is." Lynn said, holding her hand out for Mitch to grab.Mitch noticed for the first time that she had red painted fingernails.He hesitated befre grabbing her hand, the nails reminded him of the weird wolf's red claws.

"I guess." he grumbled.As they walked to his house, Mitch showed Lynn the way.Finally they came to his house.

"Nice house.So, what do you want to eat for dinner?" asked Lynn.

"Food.Or something edible." Mitch said sarcastically.Lynn smiled.

"Steak it is.You want some Mac n' cheese with it?" she said.

"Sure.I'd like my steak rare." said Mitch, who had a sudden craving for meat.When Lynn set the food in front of Mitch, he literally gulped his food down.Lynn laughed.

"You have great table manners!!" said Lynn sarcastically.Lynn chowed her food down too, and washed the dishes.Mitch yawned and winced, grabbing his shoulders."You ok, Mitch?" asked Lynn.

"My shoulders hurt for a second when I yawned." Mitch said, rubbing his shoulders.Lynn smiled warmly.

"I'll rebandage it for you." Lynn said, dragging Mitch into the bathroom.Mitch took his shirt off and Lynn carefully peeled the bandages back.Surprisingly, his shoulders looked much better.Instead off the bloody, open wounds that were on him last night, he only had tiny scars.Someone who didn't know better would have assumed that he got the tiny scars from a tiny kitten that dug it's claws into him.Mitch inspected his wounds in the bathroom mirror with interest.

"Those doctors did one heck of a job!" said Mitch.Lynn smiled again, but it was a mischeivious smile, like she was planning something.She rebandaged the small scars and sent Mitch to bed.Mitch got dressed into a pair of his blue pajama pants that had cowboys on them and set his alarm clock, since the next day was Monday.Lynn went into the living room where the couch was and curled up with a blanket on the couch.


Mitch moaned as his alarm clock rang in his ears.Agitated, he picked the alarm clock up and threw it across the room with strength a five-year old doesn't normally have.He was too tired to notice and snuggled deeper into his blanket.Right when he was about to nodoff again, he was awaken with a yell.

"MITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!MIIIIIIIIITCH!!!!!WAKE UP!!!!!" Lynn screeched.Without opening his eyes, Mitch stumbled out of his bed and into the kitchen.The pleasent scent of frying bacon and fresh eggs filled his nostrils.He opened one of his eyes and glared at his babysitter.

"What?" Mitch growled.Lynn smiled.

"Breakfast's ready.And your little girlfriend and her sisters are here!" Lynn said with a much calmer voice and directed Mitch's attention to the table, where the Powerpuff girls were eating bacon and scrambled eggs.Mitch immediatly covered his torso with his arms and stared at the girls with a mixture of surprise, anger, and embarrassment.Buttercup looked up from her plate and glared at Lynn.

"Ah'm nah is girlfrend!!" Buttercup protested, forgeting that she still had food in her mouth.Lynn grinned again and handed Buttercup some milk.

"Don't speak with your mouth full, Buttercup.Mitch, I hope you like scrambled eggs.I always take my eggs scrambled, not stirred!!" Lynn said, laughing at her own 'joke'.Buttercup glared at her a few more minutes and drank her milk in one gulp.

"What are they doing here!?!?" Mitch said, pointing at the girls angrily.Lynn grinned again.

"They were worried about you." Lynn said innocently, although her grin wasn't innocent and was, once again, mischeivious.Still angry, Mitch took his plate and sat at the table.He put his hands on the table and gasped.It was the first time he had seen his hands all morning and the Powerpuffs noticed his hands and laughed.His fingernails were red, as red as blood, as red as Lynn's fingernails, as red as the wolf's claws and eyes.

"Did you paint my NAILS!?!?!" Mitch yelled angrily.Lynn frowned at him and wiped away an imaginary tear.

"Surely, you don't think I'd paint your nails, do you?" Lynn asked, frowning with fake hurt.Mitch growled.

"Yes, I do think you painted my nails, and don't call me Shirley!!!!!" Mitch yelled.Lynn smiled for the fiftieth time that morning and ruffled the top of Mitch's head.

"Eat your breakfast and get ready for school." Lynn said.Mitch wolfed his food down again and stormed into his room.He got dressed in his usual outfit.He grabbed a pair off his gloves and put them on his hands.They were leather gloves that resembled what you would expect a biker with a leather jacket to wear.He went back in the living room where the Powerpuffs were.

"We'll carry you to school with us!" Bubbles said excitedly.

"I'm not carrying him." grumbled Buttercup.Ignoring her, Blossom carefully took Mitch's left arm and Bubbles carefully took Mitch's right arm.In a tri-colored rainbow, they flew to Pokey Oaks Preschool.Lynn waved them good-bye, grinning like the cheshire cat.


I forgot the disclaimer last time, so here it is: I own Lynn and nothing else, blah blah blah.R+R please!!
