In another part of the city
Boomer screamed at the top of his lungs, shouting and swearing as he kicked and broke things around the 'living room' area of Mojos' lair. Mojo-Jojo, Brick and Butch all stood in the entry way watching Boomers fit. After about five minutes of uninterrupted destruction Mojo turned to Brick "so I guess it was a good first day?" he asked in confusion. Brick only nodded with a smile while Butch was on his back laughing and cheering Boomer on.
Chapter Four: Let's do this
Bubbles skipped into Blossom's office stopping in front of her desk. Blossom looked up from her extra Trigonometry homework for a few seconds and then continued on as if nothing had happened, obviously busy. Nervously yet excitedly Bubbles stayed rooted to the spot rocking back and forth on her tip toes, hands behind her head and looking at the ceiling. A minute passed in silence, in which Blossom continued to ignore her sister, when Bubbles started humming to herself. Blossom just shot her a 'are you serious?' look then continued working once again. Dismayed that Blossom was ignoring her so intensely Bubbles stopped moving and let her hands fall limply to her sides leasing an invigorating sigh.
Totally fed up after a half-hour of constant sighing and staring Blossom cradled her cheek on her hand, propped her elbow on the desk, and looked up meeting Bubbles puppy dog eyes. She waited till Bubbles was finished, "OK. you win Bubbles, what do you want?" she asked testily. An awkward grin replaced the bored frown as she scratched the back of her head giggling quietly.
"Eh, well" Bubbles began "I um . . . wanted to ask you if you could help me." She left the rest hanging in the air.
Her full attention now on her sister Blossom stacked her papers and put them neatly on a corner of the desk. The redhead closed her eyes and shook her head before looking at her youngest triplet "okay Bubbles what is it you need help with I'm busy so don't beat around the bush."
Bubbles grinned cheekily and ran around the desk jumping on her sisters' lap and throwing her arms around her neck. Blossom just sighed and looked at her testily "well?"
"Um… well I signed up for the after school talent program and I wanted to sing a song but I kinda need you and Buttercup's help with the music"
Blossom stared at her sister no trace of emotion or hint to her thoughts on her face. Needless to say Bubbles left the room with a big bump on her head and a smile on her face. One down and one to bugger she thought merrily.
Music blared loud enough that if the room wasn't sound proof or underground for that matter it could have shook the entire house down. Holding her ears tightly Bubbles quickly pulled the plug connecting the stereos to the radio and jumped back prepared to fight for her life. It seemed to take Buttercup a whole ten minutes before she realized that the radio was no longer blaring music. Confused she turned around and found Bubbles standing next to the cord in a fighting stance. Ah, she knows me so well Buttercup thought before throwing a three combo back-flip, punch and kick at her little sis.
Bubbles blocked the punch, dodged the kick and did a leg sweep/open palm tiger punch. "What'cha want kiddo?" Buttercup asked using the leg sweep to avoid the tiger palm and do a backwards twist landing successfully on her feet. Bubbles grinned and kept her position as Buttercup came at her with a Chuck Norris kick "oh I needed to ask if you wouldn't mind playing the drums for me during an after school talent show" she replied unable to avoid the kick instead grabbing onto her upper thigh and using the momentum to hurl Buttercup to the ground while bending her arm behind her back and pinning her to the ground.
With a smile Buttercup pushed up off the ground and shoved Bubbles into the wall with her back. Bubbles put her hand up and tapped the wall three times. Pulling away from the wall Buttercup gave Bubbles a bear-hug and a nookie before walking over to the mini-fridge and grabbing a soda for her and a water for Bubbles. They walked out of the room and towards the living room couch. "Sure Bubbles I'd love to jam out with ya on stage. Together we'll kick the crud outta all those kids butts." With one last hug Bubbles left her sis to watch as much TV as she could before Blossom or the professor found out and went up to her room to plan for the performance.
Mojo Jojo's lair
Brick and Butch stood outside Boomers door waiting for him to come down. It had been about five hours since he had stopped thrashing the lower lair and stormed up to his room. Finally fed up Butch banged on the door. "Hey dumb-ass! Were gonna eat all the pizza if you don't get down here." the silence remained "Just forget about it kay? The stupid bimbo ain't worth a second thought." both boys stood at the door for all ten more seconds before racing down the stairs to gobble up the 18 boxes of pizza.
Boomer continued pacing around the room his thoughts never drifting from Bubbles and Mr. Cueeperitz. Stupid Bubbles acting all buddy-buddy with that stupid teacher. Geez they make me sick 'ooh Mr. Cueeperitz your so kind and mature' bah! Whats so neat about that old toad, besides what kinda teacher hugs their students. Perverted old pedo. I mean eww what girl especially one of the Powerpuff girls wants to be with a pedo.
Boomer shook his head and started to walk down to the kitchen. I mean what could he do its not like he could protect her or nu-thin if she was gonna be with anyone it'd have to be someone stronger than her like me or. . . well I guess I'm the only guy really tough enough to handle her my brothers would just get annoyed. Boomer reached the table and grabbed a box of meat lovers. Butch smirked "Finally through play-in emo huh? Or do you just want a last meal before ya go?" everyone burst into fits of laughter.
When Boomer didn't answer they quit laughing and just ignored him Che me and Bubbles as if a strange pain shot through him but he just shook it off and shoved a piece of pizza in his mouth but one things for sure no matter weather she gets with someone or not I wont stop torturing her until she's begging for forgiveness and kissing my feet! With that thought in mind he stopped mid bite and erupted into a fit of maniacal laughter.
Ah Tuesday morning. Monday has come and gone and now a new day can begin. Let's pay a visit to our three favorite girls shall we?
Blossom smiled as she finished putting the new items in their backpacks. Bubbles walked into the dining room and set down the plate of hot sausage and bacon. As the girls sat down to eat Professor Utonium cleared his voice.
"OK girls after yesterdays' incident I was reminded that Mojo Jojo and his boys play dirty and we can expect nothing less." He took a minute to look around the table.
Blossom had her head bowed respectfully in thought, Buttercup was shoveling food violently into her mouth while muttering death threats to the plate of toast and Bubbles was squirming in her chair and pushing food around her plate. His mouth tightened into a thin line. Everything was quiet, like a murder investigation, everyone seemed deep in their own thoughts. It seemed like forever before the Professor spoke.
"That's why I had Blossom put the new items we created yesterday in your bags"
Bubbles head whipped up surprise evident, Buttercup froze mid shovel dropping her bite of sausage and pancakes. Blossom flashed her sisters a warm smile.
"sooo. . ." Bubbles began "what is this new item?" she asked emphatically. The professor smiled.
"Well I haven't named it yet and its still a prototype but basically it functions like a neutralizer. Inside is a small amount of a new chemical Blossom and I've been working on for three months now, it has the exact opposite reaction of Chemical X. Instead of releasing a dose of radiation it absorbs and contains it for a short amount of time, I'm not certain, though it'd probably last about 2 hours."
Blossom chirped up excitedly when the Professor took a break to take a bite of his blueberry muffin.
"Exactly!" she rushed on overly excited "So we put the chemical into a pen like device that turns the liquid chemical into a lazier-like beam focusing all the chemical on one spot so as to concentrate and take affect much quicker."
She took a big breath and plundered on obviously proud and excited of her and their fathers first joint invention. "There are three buttons." she said pulling hers out of her bag showing her sisters "The black one sets it on lazier point for far distances and small targets, the red one sets it to spray mode for close up and big targets or emergencies and the blue one is an actual pen so as to fool anyone else."
The Professor smiled at his girls. "Be careful though, there is only enough in each pen for three shots so use them sparingly." He glanced at the clock and then back to the table. "OK girls you've got a half hour before school starts I suggest you finish up and head out."
Pokey Oaks High
Bubbles laughed as she landed on her feet and rolled a few yards. Standing up she pointed at her sisters and said "Ha! I so rolled farther than the both of you HA. HA. HA." Buttercup got up shaking the dirt out of her hair like a dog "yeah yeah what'eva Bubbles." She mumbled obviously disappointed she lost. Blossom stood up and chuckled softly as she dusted off her clothes "Alright, alright girls. Enough it's time for school lets just head to class kay."
The girls gave each-other hugs and went their separate ways, all trying to ignore the nagging feeling of eyes on their back. Butch, Brick and Boomer snickered as they watched the girls roll onto the school grounds from a big oak tree. "Man did you see their skirts fly? talk about pantie shots" Butch said vicious mirth in his voice as he stood on a branch below Brick. Brick gave whistle and sly smile before jumping down and leaning against the trunk "no kidding huh!". Boomer chuckled replaying the image in his mind leaning all the way back till he was upside down hanging by his knees "yeah".
200 Hall lockers
Bubbles smiled as she hummed a light tune to herself, rummaging through her locker she grabbed a book and put her social studies and her geometry homework away. Closing the door she leaned against the lockers books safe in hand. Mitch grinned widely as he pulled up next to Bubbles his usual boyish grin plastered from ear to ear.
"Well well well. Sweet as ever Bubbles? Of course you'd be humming our song in the halls" (1)
Bubbles rolled her eyes and smirked, no one got her like Mitch did he was her best friend, pushing him on the shoulder she stuck her tongue out and pulled her eyelid down with her pinky. Mitch smirked and put an arm around her shoulders.
"So what happened while I was away?" he asked curious.
She started to walk down the halls towards the cafeteria talking to Mitch on the way. "Well not much but I signed up for the after school talent show" she said in a light tone. Mitch nodded as he got in line and piled food onto his plate Bubbles right behind him.
"Neat!" he said taking a bite of school pancakes when they reached the tables. Making sure no one else was listening in Bubbles leaned in close and whispered in his ear.
"But yesterday the Rowdy Ruff Boys came to school" Mitch gave her a are you serious look and took a huge swig of orange juice. "so?" Bubbles looked around once again obviously paranoid, turning back to Mitch she gestured him to come closer and put her hands over his ear like she was telling a big secret.
"yeah but yesterday when we confronted them at lunch Boomer grabbed me really hard by the wrist and kissed me-"
She wasn't able to finish her sentence cause as soon as Mitch heard kiss he jumped up spitting orange juice everywhere and with a downright pissed expression he looked her in the eye and shouted "WHAT!"
Panicking Bubbles grabbed him by the arm and pulled him down the halls until they reached one that was completely deserted. "shhhh!" she said placing her finger to her lips.
"No one but my sisters and dad know!" Calming down she leaned into his shoulders and cried a little. Realizing the mistake he made Mitch put his arms around her and stroked her back gently.
"Was" he began "was it really scary for you?" he asked wanting nothing more than to punch that boy in the face.
Bubbles nodded her head and backed up out of his arms and wiped the tears from her eyes. "it" she sniffed "its okay as long as I have the pen my dad gave me I'll be fine." Mitch rose an eyebrow but didn't question what it really was, knowing The Professor it was something specifically made to protect her from this situation.
"Well, you want me to come to your house after school and hang with you while you and your sisters practice?" he asked trying to cheer her up.
Looking into his eyes Bubbles smiled and was about to nod when she noticed that he wasn't looking at her but just over her shoulder and behind her. A small shiver of fear went through her as she saw the raw malice and hate in his eyes. Curious and scared she turned around to look behind her and jumped back immediately, landing in Mitchs' arms which wrapped around her shaking body protectively. Trying to gain a little balance she put one hand his shoulder and grasped the arm draped across her torso.
Boomer glared at the contact between Bubbles and the strange boy he didn't recognize. A growl caught in his throat as she reached up to hold onto him Oh I see how it is I barely kiss her and she freaks out yet this boy grabs her around her bosom and she holds onto him like a kid to a blanket. It makes perfect sense.He cringed at his own sarcasm God what I wouldn't give to have seen this kids face when I kissed her I bet he would have jumped out of his skin. With a cruel smirk on his face Boomer reached towards the both of them and grimaced when Bubbles recoiled farther into Mitch and squeezed tighter onto his arm.
Finally summoning up a little courage Bubbles straightened herself so that she was standing but continued to lean into Mitch. Now she stood next to him arms wrapped securely around his neck trying to keep her balance as his left arm went down and wrapped around her waist, the other going into her hair pulling her closer to him.
"W-what do you want Boomer?" she asked shakily hoping against all hope that he was just lost and had stumbled upon them by accident but something told her that wasn't the case. She didn't trust the malicious gleam in his eyes.
Boomer continued to look between her and the unidentified boy now prowling back and forth in front of them like a cat, humorless grin in place.
"Oh nothing really, I was just looking for you actually, you know being my guide and all I was just hoping you could help me find my locker before class begins I have a few things I need to put away." his voice was cool and even but both teenagers could feel the anger and tension in his voice when he said guide, grinding the word out like an insult.
Looking back at Bubbles he stared her right in the eyes hatred pouring from his pupils, no doubt he was trying not to use his Laser Eye-beams, and continued on in a sickly sweet voice.
"I really had no intention of stumbling upon you and your boyfriends' precious alone time." he ground out spiting the word boyfriend like it burned his tongue.
Bubbles swallowed the lump in her throat and tried to speak in what she hoped was a nonchalant manner. "Mitch isn't my boyfriend and it doesn't matter anyway it's very rude to creep up on someone"
Mitch smirked "yeah freak-show why don't ya go ask someone else we're busy" he said pulling Bubbles closer to him.
Boomer growled low in his throat and clenched his fist almost drawing blood. With a feral growl he punched the wall by Bubbles head and grabbed her roughly by the wrist yanking her violently into his arms. The action causing Mitch to fall to the ground, without thinking Boomer picked her up bridal style completely ignoring her pathetic wiggles and whimpers. Using his foot Boomer kicked Mitch in the gut repeatedly and spat in his face.
"If you're smart you'll stay away from Bubbles" he said in a harsh and threatening whisper before zooming off with Bubbles tucked tightly against his chest.
On top of the schools roof
Bubbles winced when her shoulder made contact with the metal air-vent, shakily she stood up clutching her arm it didn't really hurt just a mild annoying throb. She didn't get time to move more than that because the next second Boomer shoved her against the air-vent trapping her with his body. He grasped her chin in one hand as another snaked around her waist trapping her arms. When she did nothing but stand limply in his arms he shook her head back and forth sneering down at her.
"LOOK AT ME!" he yelled when she refused to meet his eyes.
Scared and alone she silently cursed, she couldn't reach into the back pocket of her skirt where she had hidden the pen. With no other choice she looked up to meet his eyes all the malice and rage made a shiver run through her body. Boomer grinned an awful grin as he felt her shake and shiver in his arms yes this is how it should be Bubbles fear me, respect me. . . need me. He shook his head not knowing where that last thought came from.
"you should be more careful about how you and your friends talk to me because if I remember correctly I am the stronger one and I have enough power to permanently silence your cute little boy-toy." he said drawing in close to her face his lips barely an inch from hers, his eyes locked onto her own widened and scared ones.
"maybe" he continued "you need to be reminded about your situation. we are back and we're here to stay so If I were you I'd get used to seeing me around."
That said he leaned down and pushed his lips softly on hers and closed his eyes running his tongue along her lips relishing in the taste of homemade breakfast lingering on her lips. gods I can taste her breakfast no doubt she made it herself. Fresh blueberry pancakes topped with powdered sugar and hand squeezed orange juice with a side of blackberries ripe from the garden. As he continued to imagine what it would be like to sit down share a breakfast with her Bubbles slowly reached into her back pocket and grasped the pen. She fumbled with the buttons for only a second before she shoved at him with all her strength successfully pushing him back a few feet.
The push wasn't very violent but the shock of suddenly being pushed backwards caused Boomer to fall flat on his ass with a dumbfounded expression before he could compose himself or get up Bubbles aimed the pen in his direction and pushed the red button flying off and going back to cry in Mitch's arms explaining as best as she could what happened. Boomer sat there confused he felt weak really weak getting up he tried to fly. . . nothing, suspicious he went through all his powers trying to will any of them to work. Finally he sat back down back against the air-vent. He touched his fingers to his lips and began to plot a most wrathful revenge.
School is over and the four teens are ready to practice
Mitch sat on a chair and watched silently in awe as the girls practiced their song every now and then using their powers as makeshift special affects. sometimes someone missed a chord or note but they kept going until the end or close to the end. Bubbles began to walk towards where the crowd would sit as she sang and got her foot caught in a wire, when she tried to release her foot it pulled hard and unhooked from the amp hitting her in the back of the head and sent her flying forward. Before anyone could get up to help she was falling to the ground in a heap of wires and cords.
Mitch grinned and stood up clapping and laughing as Bubbles got up and straightened her skirt. He walked up to her and helped her up as Blossom pulled the cords off of her, Buttercup had rolled off the makeshift stage laughing hysterically. Once she was completely untangled Bubbles laughed and hoped off the stage turning to look at Mitch who was pulling something out of his pocket. Buttercup was now leaning against Blossom merely chuckling instead of out right hollering, in unison all three girls looked from the tape in his hand to him and asked "what's that?".
After an awkward moment Mitch cleared his throat and walked to the stereo and put the casset in. "This" he said waving the empty case at them before putting it away "is the reason I've been out of school for a week" he simply left it at that and pushed the play button before standing at the mike as the music began to feel the room, with a soft tempo. Glancing down his eyes caught Bubbles and they shared a smile as he began to sing.
(2)
I thought tonight would suck like every other night
I'd party with my friends
But when I saw you grooving on the dance floor
Normal came to an end
We started talking and man, it was so clear to me
There's no one else like you
You got the brains, the body, and the beauty
To top it off, you're cool
His voice was soft and smooth unlike when he talked there was no rugged rasp signaling his growth from boy to man just a smooth and lulling tune.
This ain't impossible
This ain't improbable
You are my baby tonight
And I'm your daddy
This ain't believable
This ain't predictable
You are my baby tonight
And I'm your daddy
Bubbles felt her heart melt a little when he looked at her and gave her a wink.
I hope that I ain't freaking you out
You probably hear it all the time
I swear I ain't like those other boys
I'm a special kind
I would like to give a demonstration
Of what it is I do
I'll take you out to dinner at Palermo's
We'll split a cheese fondue
Buttercup's and Blossom's jaws hit the floor while Bubbles eyes shined. None of them had ever heard Mitch sing before and all of them were pleasantly surprised.
This ain't impossible
This ain't improbable
You are my baby tonight
And I'm your daddy
This ain't believable
This ain't predictable
You are my baby tonight
And I'm your daddy
I will ape a goombah
If you tire
Try my best to moonwalk
On the wire
I just want to, ooh ah,
Feel your fire
Feel your fire
Feel your fire!
This ain't impossible
This ain't improbable
You are my baby tonight
And I'm your daddy
This ain't believable
This ain't predictable
You are my baby tonight
And I'm your daddy
The girls looked from one to another before they all jumped on stage hugging and complimenting Mitch. Needless to say the rest of the night was spent singing karaoke, each trying to one up the other.
(1)the song she was humming was Waking up in Vegas by Katy Perry
(2)the song Mitch sings to Bubbles is I'm Your Daddy by Weezer
the song is copyright to the artist and respectable record company I do not own or gain anything.
