Chapter 3 – Blue, Red, Green

(Miyako's P.O.V)

"… Mojo's… back…"

"NANI? You're joking, desu!"

'He can't be back! He stopped attacking over a year ago!'

"Better believe it, 'cause it's true," stated Kaoru-chan, whilst shoving Momoko's compact into my hand. I just stared agape at the screen.

I could make out Mojo's figure (or his robot's figure) stomping around, crushing everything in his path. Mojo's voice rang out from the compact.

"Come and get me, Powderpuff Girls Z, mojo! I've got a surprise for you!"

The compact screen went fuzzy, and then turned black. I handed Momoko-chan's compact back to her.

"So he really is back…"

Momoko nodded.

"So… what do we do?" I asked them both.

"Well, duh, we go out and kick his butt! Just like the good times!"

I couldn't help but smile at that. Kaoru-chan's attitude and confidence are two things I admire about her, I kind of look up to her.

I nodded and took out my compact, as did Kaoru; Momoko's was already out. We all flipped them open and held them in the air, waiting for Peach's signal.

"Powerpuff Girls Z, transform, da wan!"

Three rings appeared; one on each of the middle fingers on our right hands. Each ring bore our signature colour.

'Well, here we go again…'

Kaoru brought her green compact down in front of her face, grinning mischievously, as always.

"Let's do this…"

Momoko-chan and I looked at one another, and then nodded. We all held our open compacts out at arm's length and swiped our rings across them. After we slid them back into our belt slots, a sudden outburst of pink, blue, green and white light surrounded us.

"Hyper Blossom!"

"Rolling Bubbles!"

"Powered Buttercup!"

The light grew more intense and from it, all three of us shouted together.

"Powerpuff Girls Z!"

(Regular P.O.V.) (A/N: The next eight paragraphs/lines are just a brief summary of the girls, feel free to skip.)

The light died down and in its place were three teenage girls all clad in matching uniforms. Each uniform was exactly the same except for the fact that each was a different colour.

The red-headed girl stood in the middle was wearing hot pink. To her left, stood a pigtailed blonde wearing baby blue; to her right, was a raven-haired girl wearing green and yellow. I'm sure you know these girls (if you don't, why are you reading this fic?). The girls' names are Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup, also known as the Powerpuff Girls Z.

These girls were super heroines, and the saviours of Tokyo city. And, like all the best super heroes, they have secret identities.

Blossom was the leader of the trio of teenage girls. She was a fiery red-head with a fairly short fuse, she wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed but was tactical, and served well as leader. Her secret identity was Akatsutsumi Momoko, a boy-crazy candy lover.

Bubbles was the second member of the trio. Said blonde was kind-hearted and innocent. She tried to avoid physical fighting as much as possible. She preferred to try to talk to villains and monsters to see what was bothering them. Unfortunately, this tactic rarely worked and she would often have to resort to fighting alongside her teammates. Bubbles' secret identity was Gotokuji Miyako, a fashionable and popular cutie.

Buttercup was practically the polar opposite of Bubbles. She was rough, tough and VERY short tempered. Buttercup never turned down a challenge. She would often rush into battle without a second thought also, without consulting her self-proclaimed leader. This would often result in many arguments between the two.

Bubbles (the glue that held the girls together) would always be the one to stop conflict arising in the group. However, Buttercup would stand to reason if her friends were in danger and/or things were getting serious. Her secret identity was Matsubara Kaoru, a rowdy tomboy.

The three, when together, were unstoppable.

"So, girls…"

"Let's go kick some green monkey butt!"

(Blossom's P.O.V.)

I nodded then took off, leaving a trail of my respective colour behind me. Bubbles followed slightly behind me on my left, Buttercup slightly behind on my right.

"Keep your eyes peeled, girls, we need to find Mojo before he does any more damage," I instructed as my eyes scanned the area below me.

"Hai, desu."

"Pfft, it's just monkey butt, what's the problem? We swoop in, beat the cra-"

Here, Bubbles and I gave her a scornful look.

"-COW outta him, then fly off into the distance, same as always!"

"I wouldn't be so cocky, Buttercup. He has been missing for a whole year!" I reminded her. "Who knows what evil he's created in that time?"

Bubbles nodded whilst Buttercup just scoffed. "Yeah? Well, remember this, Leader Girl, we fought him for a whole year before he went missing. What progress did he make in that time, huh?"

"Well, -"

"None, Bubbles. None."

I heard something down below and stopped. The girls were still too busy 'disagreeing' to notice.

"Guys, wait!"

They turned and I gestured downwards. Sure enough, Mojo, or rather his (now improved) robo-suit, was stomping around destroying Tokyo. People were running in all directions screaming their heads off. It appeared that Mojo's new goal was more than just stealing candy from babies… literally.

My green clad teammate grinned from ear to ear. "Let's get 'im!" She started to speed off, but I grabbed her arm and held her back.

"Buttercup, wait."

She let out a childish moan. "What now?"

I ignored her and just stared at the scene below us. The back of Mojo's robot suit was opening up.

Eventually, Bubbles hovered down next to us. "What is he doing, desu-wa?"

Without warning, three bold streaks of light shot out of the suit and hurtled down the streets of Tokyo. They were much faster and more destructive than any other Mojo creation I had seen.

"Whoa!"

"What the hell is that?"

"Or, are those," stated Bubbles.

"No time for a debate, girls. Let's go!" I shot after the light, with Buttercup and Bubbles close behind me.

"Wait. What about Mojo?"

I looked back at my raven-haired friend. The anxiousness in her face proved she was longing for a fight. I then looked back at Mojo, he didn't seem to be causing any trouble. In fact, he was just watching us and the light/s. I came to a decision. I told the girls we could get him later, the light was causing too much damage to let it continue.

"Hai," both teammates responded.

And so, we darted after the streaks of light. They were incredibly fast! The streak on the left was dark blue, the one in the middle was blood red and the final streak was a shade of dark green. Together, they formed a trio of colour very similar to our own, only darker. But then, I noticed something.

"Hey, guys… can you see that?"

"See what?"

"The lights… they're giving off a dark aura."

(Bubbles' P.O.V.)

She was right.

"So?" Buttercup questioned. "If they were created by Mojo, they're bound to give off a dark aura."

"No, no, no, no. Look closely."

There was a pause in conversation. Buttercup and I squinted to see what our leader was talking about when suddenly, Buttercup's eyes widened and she reeled back in shock.

"It's –"

"Really dark," I finished.

Blossom nodded. "Darker than Mojo's. But, look even harder."

Once again, I squinted to try to figure out was Blossom was saying. By now, we were almost right on the lights' tails. Then, I saw it.

"B-b-b-but, that's impossible, desu!"

What I had seen, was tiny strips off white aura, in-between the midnight black; miniscule, granted, but still there. It appeared that Buttercup had now noticed it too, as she gasped (a rare trait for Kaoru-chan).

"How can something with an aura that dark have white aura, too?"

"I don't know, but –"

Suddenly, the three streaks increased their speed and flew off in different directions.

"They split!"

"Quick, Bubbles, go left. Buttercup, you take right. I'll head for the middle one."

"Hai!"

And with that, we sped off in our separate directions.

Oh, yeah. Many thanks to She-Pirates kick-BUTT for notifying me about my double post ^.^''' sry bout that x R&R :)
