The Three Kingdom Brothers

The girls were at the professor's house doing what they would normally do. For Momoko, it would be hanging around and having sweets. For Miyako, it would be looking at fashion magazines. For Kaoru, it would be watching football. Then, the phone rang and the professor got the phone.

"Hello?" asked the professor.

"Hey." stated a powerful voice. "You know the Powerpuff Girls?"

"Yes. Why do you ask?"

"I want you to get one of them on the phone, pronto."

"Fine. Just hold on there." The professor put done the phone. "Someone wants one of the girls."

"I'll get it." Momoko stated. "Hello?"

"Are you one of the girls?" said the stocky voice.

"Yes. Why?"

"You should put the phone on speaker. So if the other two are here, they will get the message. I'll do the same." The phones were switched to speaker. "The name is Shu Han. I Cao Wei, and Sun Wu are the Three Kingdom Brothers, and we challenge you to a sparring match."

"Well, I don't know." Momoko said. "We haven't even seen each other and…"

"Unless you're scared that you are going to get beat." Cao Wei interrupted in his stocky voice.

"We are not scared." Miyako stated.

"You girls are chickens. You girls are chickens." Cao Wei taunted. "You girls are chickens. You girls are…" The girls heard someone getting hit. "Oww."

"Shut up." Sun Wu stated in a muscular manly voice.

"We're not scared." Kaoru explained. "You will be eating your words."

"So you are going to accept this challenge?" asked Shu Han.

"Hell yeah, we are." Kaoru said.

"Very well then. Meet us at the Chiyamoto High School football field, when you are ready." Then, Shu Han hung up the phone.

"Well, let's go then."

"Hold on, Kaoru." Momoko told. "We don't know about them."

"We are going to find out."

"I don't think we have a choice since Kaoru accepted it." Miyako said.

The girls did their transformation sequence and then they headed toward the high school. They found the Three Kingdom Brothers waiting for them there. All three were wearing sleeveless shirts and pants. They had a slightly muscular build. Shu Han was dressed in yellow with short orange hair. He had a green dragon tattooed on his arm and he carried a cross spear. Cao Wei was dressed in violet and had long blonde hair. He had a phoenix tattoo in the same area and he carried two light swords that can form a double-bladed sword. Sun Wu was dressed in orange and had short black hair. He had a tiger tattoo in the same area and wields two tonfas.

"We've been waiting for you, girls." stated Shu Han.

"I'm ready to fight." said Sun Wu.

"Are you ready to get your ass kicked?" asked Cao Wei.

"We will see whose ass gets kicked." Buttercup said.

"This isn't going to end well." Blossom and Bubbles stated simultaneously.

The conflict began with Blossom battling Shu Han, Bubbles battling Cao Wei, and Buttercup battling Sun Wu. The brothers had the advantage in combat. Blossom thrusted out her yo-yo, the string got tangled on the blade of Shu's spear and he cut the string with his spear. Bubbles swung her wand to strike Wei but the wand was caught by Wei's swords and the swords and the wand was cut to pieces only sparing the head of the staff. Buttercup did swing her hammer at Wu. However, he moved to the side and struck the handle with his tonfas and busted the hammerhead off. The girls had to rely on hand-to-hand combat, and shortly afterward the girls were beat.

"Honestly, is that the best you can do?" Shu asked the girls.

"Your combat skills aren't worth a penny." Wei stated adding insult to injury.

"That's enough Wei."

""You girls shouldn't be fighting crime, you should be…" Wei said ignoring Shu's request. At that point, Sun Wu just slaps him. "Ouch."

"Shut up with the insults." Sun Wu said.

"I apologize for Wei's behavior." Shu explained to the girls. "We shall go in victory until next time. Good day, ladies." The brothers then left. The girls' spirits were broken as well as their weapons.

"I can't believe we lost." Buttercup said.

"Well, why did you accept the challenge in the first place?" Bubbles asked Buttercup.

"It doesn't matter why she accepted or not." Blossom explained. "We lost the sparring match and all of our stuff is broken." The girls gathered what was left of their equipment and their pride and headed back to the Professor's house to explain. It was their first defeat in a long, long time. At the professor's house, they went back to their regular forms.

"I'm sorry. But I don't know how to fix the equipment." The professor explained. "We might need to find someone who is able to fix this without them knowing…" Then, there was a knock on the door. "I'll get it." He opened the door and Dexter was at the door. "Hello? Can I help you?"

"I am Dexter." The man replied. "I helped the girls the day when the girls confronted Mr. Mime."

"Ah, yes." Utonium replied. "They told me about you."

"I sensed you are having trouble. May I come in?"

"Of course." Then, Dexter came in with the Professor. The girls were surprised about Dexter's sudden appearance.

"We were beat by those stupid Kingdom Brothers." Kaoru stated without thinking. She realized after saying that she was talking to Dexter. And the other two girls gave her a cold look. "Oops."

"Don't worry; I already knew who you were before you told me."

"How do you know that?"

"I've been around the town for a long time." Dexter lied.

"Oh, so you figured it out on your own?" Miyako asked him.

"Yes. I have." Dexter replied. "Now, you were talking about the Three Kingdom Brothers? You do know they are the rouges of New Townsville."

"I know you are mistaken." Momoko stated. "Those are the Rowdyruff Boys, you are talking about."

"The Three Kingdom Brothers will be the rouges after the Rowdyruff Boys." Dexter then, noticed some broken items lying on the table.

"What are these broken items?" he asked.

"Those are… or I should say was our weaponry." Miyako replied. Dexter thought about something.

"Can I have these?" Dexter asked.

"What for?" Momoko asked with curiosity.

"Give me about a day, and these weapons would be as good as new."

"You can fix these?"

"I can. However, I will need about a day to complete all three weapons. In the meantime, work on some unarmed combat, okay?"

The girls had waited for 24 hours just as Dexter had asked them to. They met at the professor's house. Dexter arrived ten minutes late.

"My apologizes for being late." Dexter replied. I needed to get some demo materials."

"For what?" Momoko asked annoyed.

"To show the power of your new weaponry." So, the girls had to wait another two minutes. When he was ready, he brought out the yo-yo first. "First, I will demonstrate Blossom's new toy. I didn't need to do much but I did a little upgrade." He threw the yo-yo's head at a brick wall and it broke through the wall. He also showed that the string, which was in reality made of very flexible wires, can hold back a large steel blade. Then, he tossed the yo-yo to Blossom. "Impressive. Is it not?"

"Nice." Momoko stated.'

"I wasn't able to fix the wand for Bubbles, but I noticed the head was intact so with the combination of using the head as a template and the broken materials can be used again…"

"Just spit it out already." Kaoru stated.

"I made these." Dexter showed a pair of wind and fire wheels (or chakram) "I made the other wheel from what was left of the wand part of the staff you originally had." He handed the wheels to Miyako. "Try them out." Everyone was confused at Dexter asking Miyako to try out the wheels like if he knew Miyako was Bubbles.

"I already know, you are Bubbles." Dexter said to Miyako. "Transforming in front of me will not surprise me, besides me no other stranger is in here." Trusting Dexter Miyako transformed into Bubbles and tried the wheels out.

"Bubble Champagne." She stated. Then bubbles came out of not one but both wheels. "Wow. This is good work."

"I thought you might like it. Now on to Buttercup. I have fixed the hammer but added something to it." He held the hammer to a machine. The machine shot out napalm flames. Dexter moved his hand up the staff and the hammer head and the extra covering near the head folded out like an umbrella and it worked like shield blocking the napalm. "See." He slid down the area and it folded back to place and he tossed the umbrella to Kaoru.

"Well, I guess this will work." Kaoru stated.

"Now, you have the weapons back. How about you try them out?" Dexter asked. "Just to mess around with." The other two girls transformed. They followed Dexter outside. Dexter was running.

"Dexter, why are you running?" Blossom asked.

"I can't fly." He said. "Besides, I don't need to fly." Then, he began to dash off with tremendous speed. The girls had a hard time trying to catch up. His speed reminded them of the time they confronted Digitron, three years earlier. Then, Dexter spotted the Three Kingdom Brothers in combat against a group. He stopped to watch the action unfold even though he knew what the outcome was going to be.

"Brick, we're losing here." stated Boomer while confronting Cao Wei.

"Do you have a plan on how to turn this around?" asked Butch while he was confronting Sun Wu.

"I wish I did." replied Brick. The three were eventually knocked down; they were bruised and beaten. There was not much fight left in them left. They considered themselves defeated. "Damn it."

"My, I'm sorry. But I believe you have lost." explained Shu Han.

"This means we have the title of 'New Townsville Rouges' now." Cao Wei stated.

"And this is my queue." Dexter thought to himself. He then advanced to the scene. The girls noticed him heading in that direction. They, too, ended up seeing the events too. Then, Shu Han noticed Dexter come up.

"Shu Han, you had a victory streak." Dexter stated. "But one group will beat you."

"Oh really?" Shu Han asked. "Who would that be?"

"Powerpuff Girls Z… Elite Force." Dexter stated.

"What?" Blossom stated.

"We already beat those suck-ass girls." Cao Wei stated.

"Shut up." Sun Wu replied.

"Try beating the Powerpuff Girls Z and the Rowdyruff Boys." Dexter stated.

"I guess we can accept the challenge." Shu Han replied. Dexter smirked knowing what the outcome was going to be.

"Girls, guys. Are you going to accept the challenge?" Dexter asked the girls and guys.

"Well, it would help." Blossom replied.

"Oh fine." Brick replied.

"Then, let the challenge begin." Dexter said.

Blossom began to engage with Shu Han. Bubbles began to engage Cao Wei. Buttercup began to engage Sun Wu. Dexter saw the guys weren't doing much. So, he pulled out a set of nunchucks, a bow staff, and a Chinese-style sword. Dexter without being notice whacked Sun Wu with the nunchucks. When, Sun Wu turned around the chucks were in Butch's hands.

"You will pay for that." Sun Wu stated to Butch.

"What are you talking about?" Butch replied.

Dexter did the same thing with the bow staff striking on Cao Wei and placing the staff in Boomer's hands before Cao Wei could notice Dexter. Cao Wei was pissed at Boomer. Then, Brick got the picture.

"Hey, you." Brick said to Dexter.

"What?" Dexter stated.

"I get your idea now."

"I'm glad. Want this sword?"

"Yeah." Then, Dexter tossed him the sword.

"Go get 'em." Then, Brick went to assist Blossom. Shu Han was about to get a strike on Blossom but it was blocked by Brick's sword. They were in a deadlock.

"Blossom, you need a hand?"

"Brick?" Blossom asked. "What are you doing?"

"Helping you out, we need to work together."

The others got the hint and eventually the tide was turned. Like Dexter had thought and predicted, the Powerpuff Girls Z and the Rowdyruff Boys defeated the Three Kingdom Brothers. The Brothers were the ones on the ground this time.

"Well, that was fun even though we lost." Shu Han stated. "Working together, you guys are a formidable team. You have what it takes to go against us."

"This isn't over you know. I mean, we just got started and…" Cao Wei said before being sucker punched by Butch. The punch knocked him out.

"Damn, that guy never knows when to shut up." Butch replied.

"So, you want the rouge title back?" Sun Wu asked. The Rowdyruff Boys did think it over. But to the girls' surprise as well as the brothers, not to Dexter, the boys did something different.

"The guys I thought it over and it is to our interest, that you can keep the title." Brick replied.

"Are you sure?" Shu Han stated.

"We're sure." Boomer and Butch replied.

"Very well then." Shu Han said. "Do what you wish. We will be leaving now." Then, Shu Han and Sun Wu left carrying Cao Wei. The girls and the guys were glad at the time.

"I knew that what going to happen." Dexter said, accidently out loud.

"Wait, what was that?" Brick asked him.

"Nothing."

"I heard you say 'I knew that was going to happen'."

"Well…" The other five were wondering as well.

"Spill the bean. What are you hiding?" Then, Dexter sighed knowing he can't hold any more things he knew. So, he decided to share what he had to say.

"I want the six of you to sit down so, I can say what needs to be said." The six had to sit down at that time. "Now, I do not know how to shorten this true tale about me…"
