The alarm went off and Marta and Vulpia woke up. They immediately jumped up and Marta just had to jump into the shower. Vulpia didn't have time. She would have to take a shower later on. She had to get dressed and report to the Generals to announce their leaving to Aquila. She knew Marta would take care of everything since they were going to share a room on the ship. She put her uniform back on and aligned her pin properly before putting her boots on. She then stuck her head into the bathroom. "I'm leaving now, Marta. I'll see you later tonight, love."

Marta nodded, even though Vulpia couldn't see it. "Alright. I'll make sure to get everything."

Vulpia left after hearing her response and then walks swiftly down the halls. Her tail was slowly swaying behind her in anticipation. She got to the doors to Aquila's throne room and did a mental count of the Generals that were already there. There were still a couple missing, so they would have to wait. After another ten minutes, the last two joined them. One of them was General Graw. Vulpia just looked up to him with an annoyed look in her eyes, but she didn't speak to him as they got into line and she led them into the throne room. They all kneeled and Vulpia spoke.

"Mistress Aquila. We have prepared and the teams and ships are ready. We are ready to begin the investigation stage of our take over with your permission."

Aquila was silent for a time before she nods. "Very well, Vulpia. I shall be on the later ships when you send word that it is time to begin the take over. I entrust this part of the mission to your capable paws, Vulpia. I trust you will not mess up this chance."

Vulpia bowed her head and nodded. "I will not fail you, Mistress. Once I am sure we cannot lose, I shall send word to you and the rest of the fleet."

Aquila nodded to her statement and waved her clawed hand. "Very well. Go."

Vulpia nodded and stood then turned to leave. The Generals followed suit behind Vulpia. When they got out, she turned to them then. "You all have your assigned transports. Your teams are waiting on each. You know what you have to do. I shall be on the lead ship. Remember to tell your people not to blow their cover. If they absolutely must interact with the Earthlings, then they must do so as discreetly as possible. Go ahead."

They all left, except for General Graw. He stood there and when Vulpia noticed he was still standing there, she tilted her head. "Yes, General Graw? Something on your mind?"

Graw nodded. "Yes, Lady Vulpia. I understand that for now we're supposed to keep as little contact as possible with the Earthlings, but I must warn you that if any of my people have problems then they will be forced to take early prisoners." After saying that, he walked past her and to his ship. Vulpia turned to watch his back, as he walked off, with a sigh. She really did feel sorry for any Earthling that might cross one of his men. General Graw commanded the worst of the worst. Most of them were convicts that chose the army over prison, some were simply just the meanest of their city, and all had super short tempers that could explode at any time. And they never went easy on the one that pissed them off. She just shakes her head and walks to her ship.

When she was in her seat and settled down, she checked in with the other ships to make sure that everyone was accounted for. When she got the go ahead on all channels, she looks to the person controlling her own ship. "Navigator. Forward on a bearing towards Earth. Make sure you maintain a high orbit, while we send our people down, so that the planet won't detect us on their satellites. Old technology or not, we don't need them finding out about us before we start to place our people into their cities." The anthro-tiger nodded and then plotted the course into the computer, looking to the front screen as they saw the stars pass by them at a high speed, followed by planets and asteroids. In a matter of an hour, they were orbiting Earth and all the ships sent down their teams. When everyone was down, the ships all moved to basically hide behind the Earth's moon. They were still in easy contact with their people, and this way there was almost no way that they could be caught by Earth's satellites.

On the Earth, every investigation team member that had been sent down had their faces altered so they looked human. They wore their boots and they wore gloves to hide their hands. Their faces and necks were what was changed. A male landed close to the Powerpuff Girls' house and he talked into his wrist communicator to his ship. "I have safely landed and will begin my investigation. I will report anything I see as soon as I am able to, General Graw." Graw's voice came over the other end of the communicator.

"Very well, Captain Taro. I shall stand by for your reports." Taro nodded and gave a little snort. Something he couldn't help but to do. For you see, in his normal form, Taro is an anthro-bull. One of the most fiercest of the creatures from his world. He decided to start with his population report. He would have to use his hidden x-ray beam in his communicator watch to try to get a proper population count for his sector.

At the Utonium household… Saturday morning, 8am

Blossom was the first to wake up. She yawned and stretched under her blanket on the couch in the living room. She had offered Brick the couch, but he didn't want it. He made her sleep on the couch instead of the floor. She had her comforter and pillow from her bed for herself and had gotten a spare blanket and pillow for Brick. She yawned again and then rubbed her eyes before she looked around the room with a small smile. They had a couple of pizza boxes laying to the side that they would clean up later. The two couples were curled up under their own blankets. Blossom had also gotten two extra pillows for Butch and Boomer's heads. Butch and Buttercup were curled up under Buttercup's green comforter. Boomer and Bubbles were curled up together under Bubbles baby blue comforter. She had to admit, they did look cute together. She yawned again, got up, and wandered to the downstairs bathroom, closing the door behind her.

When she returned from the bathroom, she noticed Brick was sitting up and trying to wake himself up. She smiled and walked over to the table behind the couch and gathered up her pink robe, putting it on and her pink fuzzy slippers as well. She took her long red hair out of the ponytail it had been in while she slept and brushed her fingers through it a little bit as she laid the holder onto the table. She then gathered up the pizza boxes and took them outside and stuffed them into one of the garbage cans they had against the wall next to the garage. When she went back into the house, she saw that Brick was coming out of the bathroom and smiled to her, putting his slippers on to protect his feet from the cold floor. He then looked to the couples still sleeping on the floor and then gave a small smile to Blossom. She then motions for him to follow her to the kitchen. He wandered in behind her. She then sighed and went through the fridge for something to make for breakfast.

"I thought maybe we could make breakfast to be ready for when they woke up. Least we could do for them not hounding us to get together like they usually do."

Brick smiled and nodded, pulling out a pan for the eggs. He was an excellent cook, and he made the best over easy eggs. At least in Blossom's opinion. She tended to overcook them and they become over hard. He started on the eggs while Blossom got out plates, glasses, and utensils. She then got out the bread and made toast for everyone and put some bacon into the microwave to cook. Brick just thought to himself about her. 'Not hounding them to get together,' he thought to himself. He looked over a bit and saw Blossom buttering the toast as they came out and he smiled. She was beautiful, smart, funny, and he wished everyday that he could tell her how he felt. But then again, he didn't want to scare her away either. He didn't want to lose that friendship he had with his counterpart. It was so hard. Maybe some day, maybe.

Blossom interrupted his train of thought though when she spoke up. "If someone had told me 11 years ago that I would be making breakfast with a Rowdyruf Boy, I probably would have laughed in their face and admitted them to the Cityville Asylum."

Brick chuckled and then nodded. "And if someone had told me 11 years ago that my brothers and I would be sleeping over the Powerpuff Girls' house whenever we had the chance to, I think Butch would have beat the fuck out of them."

Blossom laughed softly at that and then turned to the doorway when she heard someone sniffing. It was Bubbles and she was putting her baby blue robe and fuzzy slippers on as she walked in, yawning. Her long blonde hair had been in a ponytail and it was still semi-neat. It wasn't completely out of the holder. "I smell Brick making eggs… and Blossom buttering toast. You guys didn't have to make us breakfast, you know."

Brick shrugged a bit. "You guys all looked so peaceful sleeping there that I didn't have the heart to start a pillow fight to wake Butch and Boomer up like Butch usually does to me if I happen to sleep in."

Blossom laughed softly and Bubbles giggled as she snuck a piece of bacon. "I can picture that happening. The almighty Brick.. Leader of the Rowdyruff Boys, getting beaten up by his brothers with a pillow. I can send that all over Townsville's news."

Brick smirked and then tried to tackle her. She yelped and giggled as she flew up into the air and flew into her room. Probably to brush her hair and make it look better than it did now. Brick just shook his head and then went back to the stove. He was finishing up the last couple of eggs. Blossom wrote down eggs on their shopping list since they used the entire carton so that each teen would have two eggs. She then went into the living room and looked towards the kitchen with a grin. She grabbed her pillow from the couch and smacked Buttercup and Butch with it.

"Wake up sleepyheads. Time for breakfast."

They yelped and groaned. Bubbled returned to the living room and was waking Boomer up herself. Buttercup then glanced up at her sister with narrowed her eyes. "Blossom, if I could see straight right now, I would flatten all three of you." Speaking of the fact that her vision was blurred at the moment, so she saw three Blossoms in front of her. Blossom laughed and went back into the kitchen while Buttercup rubbed the sleep from her eyes.

After a few minutes, all six of them were in the kitchen eating their breakfast and talking amongst each other. After breakfast, Bubbles and Boomer cleaned up and put the dishes into the dishwasher while the others cleaned up the living room. When they were all dressed, they went outside to the beautiful autumn day that was before them.

Meanwhile….

Taro was walking down the street. He had done about seven houses now. He wasn't sure how many he had left, but he was mapping as he was working. He had been keeping in contact with the rest of his group and reporting their findings to General Graw. He was tapping some information into his communicator and then stopped at the next house. He looked to the yard and saw there were six teenage children in front of the house. He counted the six of them then and watched them for a moment. Four of them were playing some kind of weird human sport. They had a brown ball, if you could call it that, since it was the shape, almost, of an egg. They were throwing it back and forth and tackling each other. He snorted and was about to move on till he saw something that caught his eye.

It was three males and a female wearing all green that was playing. There were two other females sitting nearby, watching them. One in pink and one in a light blue. The boys were in a red, dark blue, and dark green. What caught his eye was when the girl in the green threw the ball it went zoomed past all the boys' heads and to the other two girls. The boy in the dark blue flew up into the air and caught the ball. The girl in the blue flew up into the air as well screaming at the girl that threw the ball. She then flew up and argued back. Soon, the other three were hovering in the air as well, trying to quell the fight between the two of them. He just stood there and stared at them. There was nothing in any of the initial reports given to him by General Graw that said that the humans could fly. He looked around a bit then and noticed other children playing, but none of them were flying. He just took something out of his pocket. It looked like a digital camera. He focused it on the children and then hit start. He was taking a holographic recording of the children. This was something he had to show the General without anyone else knowing about it. His mouth turned up into an evil grin then, speaking so softly to himself, "Oh the things the things that the General would be interested in."
