Silent Whisper

Chapter 3: Lucky Us

Brick's POV

So, I lied. Sleep came eventually. Yeah, it was at five thirty something but, it was sleep nonetheless. I've been up for a while staring at my damn ceiling. I needed to get up. Ever since Blossom and I started whatever we have I've been different. A good different in a way. I'm still Brick of course. I still terrorize people for fun, I still knock my brothers out when they're stupid and I still answer to no one.

However, at the same time, I get guilty now when I hurt people. Now, I don't knockout Butch and Boomer as much anymore and I do kinda answer to someone now. That's Blossom. When I do something wrong she gives me that look, a look that clearly says, "You're wrong and you should feel bad." And boy, did I feel bad. I also tried hard to talk my brothers out of getting into trouble. I hated when the girls would show up because I hated to fight Blossom.

It made me feel horrible with every blow that was delivered. She's never mad at me or anything, she hits me back just as much. Hell, she even hits me harder because she has to beat me. We only do this because we don't want our siblings to find out. We don't want anyone to find out about us. It would be bad for both our images.

My brothers would lose respect for me and this would drive a wedge between Blossom and her sisters. Neither of us can risk this so, we keep real quiet about it. Because honestly, I can only see the results as nothing but disastrous. My reflective thoughts were interrupted by Boomer crashing through my wall. He stood up, shook his head a bit and marched back toward the hole.

"Butch! Your ass is dead!" Sigh. Does my job as older brother never end?

Boomer's POV

Goddamn that asshole brother of mine. Why does he always have to ruin my fun? All I was doing was playing my video games. That's all the fuck I was doing. Well, this is the last time. I'm not taking his bullshit any longer. This time, I'm gonna wipe that smug grin of his all over the floor. I charge at him and punched him in the gut. He doubled over and I brought my fist down on his head. He fell face first into the ground. I looked down at him panting hard. He started making a muffled noise and I realized he was laughing. He lifted his head and looked at me still laughing.

"Man, Boom, that was great! I haven't had any type of action in a whole week!"

"Butch, you're fucking insane man." I replied slightly annoyed.

That's when Brick emerged from his room, a highly irritated look on his face.

"What the hell is going on in here?" He used his stern voice. That meant to avoid serious injury, we'd have to be careful with what we said.

"Why the hell does it matter Bricky boy?" Butch threw his head back and laughed loudly. Brick only got more irritated and zoomed at Butch stopping right in front of him.

"You lookin' for a fight jerk?" As much as I loved the idea of Butch getting his ass kicked by Brick, I loved our house more.

"Look guys, it's not tha-"

"SHUT UP BOOMER!" they yelled in unison. This might get ugly.

Butch's POV

Oh, yeah. He had taken the bait, hook, line, and sinker. I haven't done anything violent in a week and I'm itching to punch something or rather someone in the face. That someone has the greenest eyes I've ever seen and the darkest hair known to man. But, because of my stupid brother and his new found morals, our crime rate has significantly declined. He won't let us rob banks or steal cars or even terrorize people. He thinks I haven't noticed but, I have. I don't know why he's being such a prissy lady jerk off but, I wish he'd stop.

"Maybe I am loser. " He gritted his teeth, his face slightly turning red.

"You're pushing all the right buttons today Butch. Keep it up." I just smiled and backed up a bit.

"Calm down dude. You look way tense and stressed. You know what would fix that?".

Don't get me wrong. I was looking for a fight but, it wasn't with my brother. No, I wanted a challenge and Buttercup was the only one who could do that for me. So, maybe, if I played my cards right, I could get my brother to drop the goody, goody, schoolgirl act and cause some trouble in this lameo town. Destroy a few buildings, smash a few cars and that familiar green streak would be headed my way. He looked confused.

"What are you talking about Butch?" "

What do you think I'm talkin' about dum-dum? Let's go fucking destroy Townsville!"

Before he could say no, I took off through the roof grabbing Boomer on my way. A few seconds later, I look back and see Brick flying towards us. Yeah, this would be fun.

Normal POV

Two minutes later and all three boys landed across the street from the Mayor's office. Brick looked over to Butch on his left and then Boomer on his right.

"You guys sure about this?" Butch gave a curt laugh and asked,

"You scared man?" Boomer then proceeded to make chicken noises. Brick balled up his fist and shot lasers out of his eyes at the Mayor's office.

"That answer you question?" Butch smirked at him and took off for a row of cars across the street. He picked one up in each hand and threw one towards Boomer who had picked up a street light turned bat. Boomer hit it launching it on the other side of town. "Woah folks! And that was number twenty-six, Boomer Jojo, with his first homer of the season!" Butch said in his announcer voice. Brick laughed and took off towards a pinkish apartment building. He stopped and looked at it for a moment. Butch noticed and bent down, ripping a piece of ground right out. He then through it right next to where Brick was floating.

"Come on man! The building isn't going to destroy itself Bricky boy! Pick up something and throw it. Here" He flung the other car he had in his hand over to Brick who caught it and tossed it up a few times. He backed away from the building a bit and then threw it at the building full force. It tore through the building causing screams from the unsuspecting victims. Butch appeared next to him and put his arm around Brick's shoulders.

"See? Doesn't that feel real good" Brick slowly nodded his head, that mischievous glint returning to his eyes.

"Yeah Butch, it did feel good." And how about those screams of those terrified people?" Brick smirked and looked at his green eyed brother.

"They sound like music to my ears." Butch and Brick laughed and Butch then slapped his brother on the 're little moment ended though when Boomer called out from a distance,

"Hey guys, look!" He pointed towards the distance and they all looked and saw that all too familiar rainbow streak headed straight for them. Butch smirked and said,

"Looks like the Powerpuff Sluts decided to join the party. Lucky us, huh?" Brick just looked down and muttered,

"Yeah, lucky us."

So, I hated writing Brick. I found it challenging and I still hate his little thingy. That being said, I really dig writing for Butch. He's not hard at all really. Also, for avid Boomer fans, I promise you'll hear more from him. His little thingy was kinda short and way lame. This chapter he played more of a gateway for the boys and girls to actually fight and for sneaky Bubbles to surface with a huge secret of her own. Okay, all the notes I got for now. So, please review so I can make it better for you guys and I hope you enjoyed reading so far.
