Authors notes: truth be told, I wasn't going to write a third chapter. But since this story became more popular than all my other ones combined, over night, I figured I could write one more chapter. Just one!
The streets of Townsville were totally empty.
Once the PowerPuff Girls told them to expect an attack from the RowdyRuff Boys, people did the only logical thing, and left the city for cover, praying that their homes would be intact upon their return.
The only sounds that could be heard were the screams from the six clashing forces.
"Is that the best you got woman?" Brick said.
Buttercup glared at him. The way she figured it, since she didn't plan out her attacks anyway, she would be perfect against him.
Unfortunately for her, he found it rather easy to evade her head first assaults so far, and counter.
"Come on!" Buttercup yelled at her opponent. "Fight like a man!"
"Are you saying that I don't?" Brick asked her. "Okay then, here I come!" He rushed toward her.
Ready for him, Buttercup ducked under his strike. Her eyes focused on his chin, and she brought her fist up in an uppercut. Brick casually leaned back, Buttercup's fist rising in front of his face.
Smiling, Brick turned around, and threw a back kick at her. Buttercup back stepped the attack, his foot stopping just in front of her.
'Now's my chance' Buttercup thought to herself. She focused her energy into her fists, then she felt a heavy force press into her stomach, and send her flying backwards.
"What the hell just happened?" Buttercup said, picking herself up. She saw smoke coming out of Brick's, still outstretched, leg. "Did you just shoot me?" she called to him, "with your foot?"
Brick merely smiled at her.
'Blossom was right about him' Buttercup thought. 'I did learn something'
Butch frowned as Bubbles rushed toward him. He could safely assume that she was knew to fight him up close, cause she kept coming up to him hitting him a few times, then retreating.
Butch wasn't upset over her tactics, he knew it was a fight and anything goes. It was her punches that bothered him. He felt that Bubbles, for lack of a better phrase, punched like a girl.
True Bubbles had super strength, which meant he could feel her attacks. But Bubbles just couldn't match up to her sister, Buttercup.
Butch smiled at the thought of her. He knew that she knew just how to throw a punch. She had real knockout power and wasn't afraid to use it.
Butch sighed, as Bubbles closed the distance and started punching him in the chest. Before she could get away, he grabbed her by one of her pigtails, 'Buttercup doesn't wear pigtails' he thought. And threw Bubbles into the distance.
Butch sighed again, and thought about Buttercup. She was probably only a few miles away going head to head with one of his brothers.
"I miss Buttercup" he muttered, as Bubbles raced back toward him.
Blossom built up energy in her hands, took careful aim, and fired. The blast traveled to its target, where it was smacked back at her by a bat, composed entirely out of energy.
Blossom grunted in frustration. "You're not making this easy are you?" she said
Boomer smiled at her, his bat disappearing into thin air. "I might ease up on you," he told her. "If you give me a kiss."
"What?" Blossom asked, flabbergasted.
"Kiss me!" Boomer said as he sped toward her
"No!" Blossom said as she ducked his attacks. "Do you think I'm stupid or something?"
"Not really" he answered while Blossom created some distance between them. "I think you are kind of cute though."
Blossom smiled back at him. "I'm flattered" she said. "But I don't feel the same about you though."
Boomer hung his head in disappointment.
"Cheer up" Blossom, almost feeling sorry for him said. "Why don't you try asking Bubbles, she thinks you're cute?"
"Bubbles?" Boomer perked up. "The really cute one with the pigtails?"
Blossom nodded her head.
"Sweet!" Boomer yelled, as rushed back to her.
Brick charged up his eye lasers and fired. The beam hit the bus that Buttercup had thrown at him, and, like a hot knife through butter, cut clean through it.
The two pieces of the bus flew around its intended target. One piece crashing into a high rise apartment building, the other the back of Butch's head.
"Hey!" he called, angrily looking around for the one responsible. Upon seeing Buttercup his expression transformed into one of glee.
"Buttercup!" he called rushing over to her and giving her a large bear hug. "Ah, I missed you."
"Ack," Buttercup screamed. "Get off of me!"
She struggled against Butch's grip, to no avail.
"Okay," Brick said, pulling his brother off of her. "You're embarrassing the poor girl."
"Buttercup" Butch said, ignoring Brick."I'm never going to let you fight anyone else again!"
"What!" Buttercup screamed at him."Look here bub; I don't need you interfering in my life. I can handle myself in a fight, and..."
"I know you can!" Butch cut her off. "You're a great fighter, a beautiful fighter! And I want to keep you all to myself!"
Buttercup felt her jaw drop and her face redden, as Bubbles joined them.
She looked from Butch's ecstatic face, to Buttercups red face, to Bricks palmed face. "What is going on here?" she asked to no-one in particular.
"My brother has been flirting with your sister" Brick told her.
"Oh" Bubbles said. "Well he's embarrassing her."
"Guys, guys!" Boomer interrupted, running up to them. "Is the best re-birthday ever or what?"
"It's been okay, I guess" Brick answered. "Unless something really great happens, I wouldn't say it's the best ever though."
"Yeah well get this" Boomer said. "Turns out, the cute PowerPuff Girl thinks I'm cute. Isn't that great?"
"What!" Butch shouted. "Baby," he said to Buttercup, "how could you think Boomer is cute?"
Still stunned, Buttercup shook her head back to her senses. "Why would I say that that idiot is cute?" she screamed. Then as an afterthought added "And I'm not your baby!"
"Not you her," Boomer said pointing to Bubbles. "I said cutie didn't I?"
"I can be cute!" Buttercup said to him
Boomer looked her over "No, I don't think you can" he said calmly.
"She can't what?" Blossom asked, as she joined.
"I can be cute" Buttercup repeated. "Can't I Blossom?"
"Well I..." Blossom stammered.
"Of course you're cute!" Butch declared. "Unlike your sisters!"
"Hey!" both Blossom and Bubbles shouted.
"How can you say that we're not, at least, smoking hot?" Blossom demanded.
"Duh, 'cause you're not" Butch answered.
"What if I do this?" Bubbles said. She proceeded to bring her right knee up to her face, put one of her pigtails through her mouth, her bottom lip wavering, and pouted.
Boomer arced back, as if the look she was giving had physically punched him in the face. "Too cute" he managed to say. "I think I got a nosebleed."
"Okay, you're cute" Butch admitted. "But you..." he turned to Blossom, who had struck a pose of her own. She was standing with her side to him, one hand pulling the brim of the hat she was wearing down, hiding her expression in shade. Butch could just tell that she was winking at him.
"You're definitely not cute" he finished.
"What!" Blossom yelled
"Ha!" Buttercup laughed
"I'm going to have to disagree with you there Butch" Brick said. "I mean look at her: that hat, those radiating pink eyes, that long luxurious hair, that hat! She is definitely the hot one here"
"Yeah Blossom" Bubbles reassured her sister. "You don't need to listen to that pig!"
"Who are you calling a pig?" Butch demanded.
"I call 'em as I see 'em" Bubbles said.
"You better apologize" Brick said to her "Or he'll kick your sorry little butt, you pipsqueak."
Bubbles turned to him. "What did you just say?" she snapped.
"I said apologize, or get your sorry little butt kicked, you pipsqueak" Brick said.
"Take that back" Bubbles shouted.
"Make me" Brick shouted back. "And if anyone else has anything to say, then say it." He paused "And say it with your fists"
All six of them were lying on the ground, groaning in pain.
"Okay then" Blossom muttered. "Are we all in agreement then?"
Everyone grunted, too much in pain to form proper sentences.
"Say it" Blossom said.
"Okay okay" Bubbles said, sitting up. "Butch, you're not a total pig."
"Thank you Bubbles" Butch responded has she fell back onto her back. "Blossom, you are indeed smoking hot."
"Ahem" Brick said from where he was laying.
"Especially in that hat" Butch finished.
"Thanks, I think I am as well" Blossom said. "And Boomer, I guess you have some redeeming aspects."
"I know I do" Boomer replied. "And Buttercup, you can be cute, just promise not to hit me so hard."
"Yeah!" Butch called "save the punches for me."
"No dice" Buttercup laughed. Then, realizing it was her turn asked "Do I really have to say this?"
"Yes" Brick answered her. "Don't make me get up, 'cause I just might."
"Alright alright" she resigned. "Brick, the way you fight is the epitome of manliness."
"Damn straight" Brick said. "Finally Bubbles," he took a deep breath. "You have a nice butt."
"Uh, thanks, I guess" Bubbles said awkwardly. "But I'm not a pipsqueak"
"I said you have a nice butt, take it or leave it." Brick said.
"But I..." Bubbles protested.
"Bubbles accept the fact that you have a great butt" Blossom said, forcing herself to her feet. "We need to be getting home."
"Okay" Bubbles rose to her feet and turned to Brick. "Thank you Brick, for the complimentary observation" she said.
"No problem" he assured her, also rising to his feet. To his brothers he said, "come on guys, we should be getting back as well. And before you say anything, I am not going to carry you."
Butch and Boomer grunted in protest but rose to their feet.
"Okay then" Brick said turning to Blossom. "I guess we'll see you on your birthday then."
"Tell you what" Blossom said back to him. "If you can promise that the city won't get destroyed" she paused, and a smile appeared on her face "then you can come see us whenever you want"
