Chapter 3- Show off

Brick's P.O.V.

After school...

Princess had pretty much told the entire school about how badly she was going to beat 'Pink eye'. She even 'talked' to the princapal about letting her broadcast it in the school. So she had gathered Blossom and her sisters, as well as practically the entire school, not kidding, even elementry and students from other schools were here.

We made our way past the school gym, to a black door, with golding writing that said: "Princess's Private Gymnasuim." All in curly printing. Blossom rolled her eyes, but entered.

Inside was a full out gym, a huge padded square in the middle was for gymnastics, sparkly gold with black lines., there was two beams, gold with black bars, underneath were gold and black mats. A set of unparrell bars in the far corner, golden bars, with wooden black bars. And in front of that was a pit full of black and gold foam cubes, lined by the wall was a tumble tamp, a really long trampoline with golden outline, leading into another black and gold cube filled pit. Against the other wall was a vault deck, the runway was sparkling gold with a simple black springboard, with a black and gold vault table. She even had two super-tramps, really big rectangle ones, one gold with other black, heck she even had four judges stationed at every event, ready for judging. Honestly, the whole thing didn't suprise me.

Both Blossom and Princess exited to changing rooms, Blossom exicted first, wearing a tight leotard, hot pink with black designs and really, really short black shorts. I was suprised there wasn't a law against wearing that short of shorts, but I was certainly not complaining, she also had her long hair pulled into a tight ponytail, and wearing black sweatbands.

While I was oogling at Blossom, Princess appeared wearing even shorter black shorts overtop her golden sparkly leotard and black sweatbands, her hair still tied into those ridiculous buns, I noticed she also put on a fresh layer or mascara, eyeliner and lipstick, both girls were also barefoot.

"Is this really needed? The other gym is just as good as this one." Blossom pointed out. Princess held her hands to her hips. "Of course not, that gym is for nobodies! And I am definatly a somebody." She spat.

"If you insist, just don't cry when I wipe the floor with you lame routines." Blossom countered, this girl had some fire, and her witty comments just fueled that fire even more.

"Whatever, pink eye, now since you seem so eager, why don't you pick which event first." She said. Blossom rolled her eyes, but I knew she was thinking, "Is that the best she can come up with?"

"If you insist..." Blossom mumbled while looking around the gym. "Bars." She decided heading over.

"I shall go first, and just say something if you want to forfit." Princess said. She raised her arms int he air before raising herself on the bar, she flipped once, twice over the bar before letting go and grabbing the other at a strange angle, everyone gasped, she split her legs and swung underneath. She straigthed her legs before turning like an upside down pieroette, she swung once, twice, and then let go twisting over once before grabbing the bar again. She then swung under, realeasing the bar doing a single backflip and then raised her arms, signaling the end of her routine.

She stood near Blossom, had on her hips as the jugdes present the score on a large scoreboard. The lit up revealing a bright 7.5.

Insantly Princess began to protest. "What, 7.5! You have got to be kidding me! That was a perfect ten, I did nothing wrong! Explain yourselves!" She shouted at the jugdes, who had grown used to this, simply replied. "Miss Morbucks, your toes were not pointed at anytime during your routine." One lady explained.

"Of course they were, now raise the scores!" She shouted. "Sorry Miss Morbucks, if you want proof, I will replay the routine in slow motion, but I will not raise your score." We watched and discovered that she had not pointed her toes. "So, who cares about pointed toes anyway!" She protested. Blossom coughed, "The Judges." Princess huffed impatiently, "Lets see your routine Pinky, you cannot top me."

But she did, her routine complete with a double twist, split swings, pirouettes, and for the dismount, three perfect layouts. (Layouts are flips, but your completely straight.) And she did have her toes pointed. Everyone gaped, but Bubbles was clapping happily and Buttercup, nodded with a huge smirk on her face. Blossom approached Princess, adusting her sweatbands, with a smirk on her face. Princess turned her back and watched as her score printed, 9.6. Blossom shrugged, and with super hearing, I heard her say, "Not my best score."

Princess's face twisted into anger, boiling red. "What! How could you give her a 9.6 and NOT ME! She had to make more mistakes than me!"

But the replay played, the only mistake I caught was she clipped the bar on her dismount, a common insident for gymnasts with long legs.

As the compition went on Princess got angrier, on the tumble tramp, the scores were, Blossom: 9.0 and Princess: 8.5
On the rectangular tramps Blossom performed well, reaching massive hieghts and doing nearly impossible tricks with ease, Blossom 9.9 Princess 9.1

They did beam, Blossom with incredible balance and skill, doing tricks such as an illuison, round-off to back layout, along with some pretty walks and kicks, showing off her beautiful body with grace, and her dismount a diffiicult double twist, I watched as she swung her leg to the side of the beam, twisting int he air as well as flipping.

Princess, not the best balancer, her routine consited of a lot of walking, not many stunts like Blossom, only a simple cartwheel, and front flip, which she lost balance on and fell off the beam, her dismount looked like child's play compared to Blossom, a simple full turn. (A very easy ballerina twirl in the air.)

Princess: 8.5 Blossom: 9.8

Vaulting, Blossom ran fast, did a round off on the spring board, a back hand spring, and a double layout twist, she took a few steps in her landing though.

Princess was not as complex, she simply jumped on the springboard regularly, did a front handspring and a double front flip. Landing with somewhat grace.

Princess 9.7 Blossom 9.1 which Princess gloated about, Blossom was still leading by a lot.

The last event, Floor. Which Blossom did with so much beauty and stunts it would've made any gymnast cry and beg for her skill. Her song was Dynamite by Taio Cruz, my favorite song.

She started out with some dancing as the song started, "I-I-I-I came to dance, dance, dance, dance. I hit the floor 'cause thats my plans,plans,plans,plans. I'm wearing all my favorite brands,brands,brands,brands. Give me some space for both my hands,hands,hands,hands."

As the song continued, she pulled off some simple tricks, a back walkover, and a few leaps, and a illusion. And as it hit the high peak of the song she ran a few steps, did a round-off, followed by multiple back hand springs, and a double layout twist so high and tight, you'd swear she as flying. She landed on the other end of the floor, her body in a pose, one hand up, the other out to the side, and her legs crossed.

She shot Princess a look with a smirk, as she flipped her hair. She continued with a no handed cartwheel, followed by a no handed back hand spring. And a few regular back handsprings, before doing a fantastics triple backflip, she still had some floor left so she danced a bit. Next she showed off her flexibility with a perfect split jump and finished by doing a layout twist, landing right in front of Princess as the song finished. She raised her arms. Everyone applauded, I couldn't help but applaud too, she had an attitude that feared no one, not even Princess, the bitchest, brattest, spoilest, revenge-full girl in this school. Not to metion she was absoululty gorgous, and athletic. Plus, smart and witty instead of Princess's weak combacks and not very smart. Bubbles ran up and gave her a hug and Buttercup granted her a high five.

Princess pouted as her song started, the veyr obvious choice of "Material girl." Such a horrible song, I smirked as Blossom showed a look of disgust and disapproval.

Princess was playing it safe, starting with a few dance moves, and a few jumps, at the high point the very simple round-off followed by multiple back handsprings, ended with a simple layout, as she continued on she did simple things, but I watched with interest and she ran to far off the floor to get enough momentum for her next trick, she did a few back handsprings and a layout twist, but she crashed into the bars, no doubt she broke something.

The entire crowd, while passing Blossom to head home congragulated her, or praised on how good she was. Only a few people stayed behind, her sisters and Princess's cheerleading squad, and my brothers, who appeared beside me.

Blossom and her sisters each crossed their arms over their chests and glared at the bratty cheerleaders.

"You only won because the judges felt bad for you." One made a bad excuse. Blossom rolled her eyes, "Right, right...Of course they did, but I'm not the one who pulled a double twist and landed twenty degrees off." Blossom calculated, the cheerleader's faces made a look of confusion.

"And you, blondie." One of them snapped at Blossom's blue eyed sister. "You can forget about being cheer captain, Princess practically owns this school, and whatever Princess wants, Princess gets, FYI she doesn't want you to steal her spotlight."

"Blossom, can I please-" Buttercup turned to her redheaded sister. "No Buttercup, we don't want to send five other girls to the hospital today, they might lose even more brain cells...if that is possible." Blossom snapped, glaring at the cheerleaders. Buttercup huffed.

"Yeah right? So what you can do flippy things, big deal." One of them snapped. "You can't do those 'flippy things'." Blossom pointed out simply. "Whatever, at least...I don't have a sister who is half guy." One joked, the others laughed at her lame joke.

"Guy! Fine you think I'm a guy? Newsflash girly, I fight like one too!" Buttercup growled with intense anger, as she pounced on the unsuspecting cheerleader, but the only thing she did to fight back, was pull her hair, which didn't seem to faze Buttercup. She easily pinned her down on the ground with and effortless amount of force.

"Now now ladies, please." Butch said swaggering up to the brawling girls, Buttercup picked up the girl and tossed her at Butch. "Here, you can have her." Buttercup said with a snarl as Blossom and Bubbles casually walked up restrain her sister. They acted as if this was normal.

"Buttercup!" Blossom growled with intense authority, so much that Buttercup cringed like she was about to be punished by a parent. She huffed and sent a meaningful glare to the other girls.

"Hmph! Whatever girls, we're leaving!" The Co-captian snobbishly replied. Blossom, stuck her hip out, put one hand on her hip, and put her hand against her chest like a bratty girl and mimicked the cheerleader. "Hmph! What ever we're leaving!" In the high-pitched snobby voice of the cheerleader. The cheerleader turned and hissed in that same snobby voice. "I don't talk like that!"

Blossom, not even looking at the cheerleader, replied, "Yeah, but thats how I hear it."

Blossom changed into her regular clothes and hurriedly stuffed everything into a pink bag. I had to admit, she was my type of girl, nobody could tell her what to do, she feared no one, she had a competitive attitude. She was feisty, not to mention hot.

I casually walked up to her, she just stood up and seemed to notice me, she was pretty tall for a girl, I was 6'0 and she was about 5'7 because she only had to look up a little bit to see my eyes, her pink eyes staring at me. I cleared my throat.

"Congrats Blossom, you successfully showed up the owner of this school." I said sarcastially. "Serves her right, she's nothing but a spoiled, selfish brat." She hissed, while giving me an intense glare. "Hey, just saying if you were going to mess with someone I wouldn't pick Princess..." I said defensively.

"Its my fight, my problem, so just stay out of it. And by the way, you can't tell me who not to mess with." She said with the same authority, she then wlaked around me and began walking towards the exit...

She was different from other girls...way different. First of all she didn't throw herself at me like all the other boy-crazy girls in this school, she didn't even care that she messed with Princess, something most girls would never do, from fear of consquences, and she wasn't afraid, but most of all she wasn't afraid of me...one of the six most powerful beings on this Earth...and everyone...and I mean everyone was scared of me...

...Everone except her...
