Chapter 7: Reviving the Lost Heart of a Powerpuff – Part 1
(To add fun to this chapter and this chapter only, I've decided to stick in the narrator from "The Powerpuff Girls" into the mix. He'll be italicized. With that in mind, enjoy.)
The city of Townsville!
And what a beautiful Saturday morning in this busy city. Fourteen years have passed since the Powerpuff Girls came into this city's lives and, now that they're all grown up, things are so much better for us all.
Crime has slowly been dwindling down to the point where it's nearly nonexistent! And for many good reasons:
Our beloved Mayor has finally kicked the bucket and now, we have the Girls taking over as mayor's themselves, something Princess Morbucks could NEVER accomplish many years ago.
Most of the frequent villains have either passed away or have gone to new paths, such as the Gangreene Gang for example. They've finally stopped their thug-like ways and have actually moved out of Townsville to pursue a career in professional wrestling, all while supporting awareness to prevent bullying.
Fuzzy Lumpkins has moved out as well with his new family of a wife and ten boys! Yikes! Looks like Mother Lumpkins has plenty on her sleeves!
Him has just simply… vanished. Thank GOD!
The Amoeba Boys have finally become lifesavers for the sickly in town, becoming cures for practically every disease at the local hospital.
Princess Morbucks had finally realized that she wasn't a princess at all and, with that in mind, right at the same time her beloved Father died, she… sorta dies with him, if you know what I mean. If not, then here are three words to tell ya:
SHE KILLED HERSELF!
Ahem… anyway, as for our favorite monkey, Mojo Jojo, the Chemical X has actually enabled him to have immortality along with all the intelligence no other primate could have and therefore, have really become the Father of the Rowdyruff Boys. He hated the fact that the boys… well, they're men now… were married to the Powerpuff Girls, having Brick married to Blossom, Boomer married to Bubbles, and Butch married to Buttercup… but since the boys moved out to live with them in their separate ways, he had no choice but to accept it.
Speaking of our beloved women, they really have gone separate ways ever since Professor Utonium passed away from a seizure he suffered two years ago. They have mourned their loss for a little while, but afterwards, they finally move on.
Bubbles seems to be enjoying her life as a Marine Biologist with her husband, Boomer, being her assistant and co-founder of Lively Bubbles, the best aquarium in all of Townsville! At this moment, she appears to be caring for an adorable Sea Lion pup. Awww! He's looking so cute when he gets his milk… and it's from a bottle, I assure you. Heh, heh. Yes, Bubbles has grown into quite the beautiful woman. Between all three girls, there are only three things they share in common: their ages, which is 24, their height, which is 6 feet and 2 inches, and their weight, which I'll never tell. Let's just say they're more like supermodels when it comes to their appearance.
Anyway, Bubbles' career has made her the richest biologist in the city! And the same could be said for handsome Boomer. He and the men are at the age of 25, which is a year older than the girls. They all have impressive muscles that made the girls fall in love with them in the first place. In addition to that, though, true passion lived on within them, even with Buttercup and Butch, who have become a rough-looking, tattooed couple, but with a passion for extreme sports. That's why they have a store called… well… Rowdyruff Extreme. Such a perfect name for them, if you ask me.
But, lo! Despite Blossom's career as Head Scientist of the Townsville Science and Technology Institute, fulfilling that wish in the Professor's will wasn't good enough to make her cope with his death. Here, she's sulking in her office after just coming in for another hard day's work and is silently crying as she stares at a college graduation photo of her, her sisters, and our beloved Professor. Blossom still had her signature red bow within her long ginger colored hair that would stop just before her knees, if she was standing. Her pink eyes are just… shimmering like a pair of gemstones… as she continued to mourn the death of her Father. In addition to being the leader of the trio, she was also more focused on the Professor's safety. The poor woman has never been able to get over it like her sisters did… and it appears to infecting her marriage with Brick, who was currently working as a construction worker deep within the bowels of the city. It was break time for the leader of the Rowdyruff Men and he kinda felt his wife's pain, even from far away! As he sits there on the very top of the unfinished building, slowly enjoying his turkey sandwich, he looked out into the distance with his long ginger-colored ponytail swaying carelessly in the breeze. His hair is just about the same length as Blossom's, by the way. Also, he's the only construction worker that was allowed to work shirtless, due to the fact that his boss actually loved his tattoo, which was basically a red and orange gradient colored flame that was etched all over his diesel pectorals, abs, and right arm stopping right at his wrist. This tattoo alone symbolized his power of fire. He was frowning, despite the sandwich being tasty and even a fellow worker decides to join him to make him feel better. Let's take a listen:
"Brick, you okay, man?" Asked a country accented man in his thirties. Brick never made eye contact as he continued to slowly eat his sandwich, staring at his wedding band at nearly every bite. When the man saw that stare, he scoffed. "Having doubts about your marriage with Blossom, eh?"
"We've been married for only six months and she hasn't made a move on me since our one month anniversary." Brick replied in a deep and handsome male voice. "I've been literally pacing back and forth about filing for a divorce, but I… I just can't do it. I love her, Gary. I love Blossom so much. She's the most elegant woman I've ever met. I mean, I know we fought each other back when we were kids, but now… all that shit doesn't matter."
"I know being both a mayor and a head scientist is pretty harsh, but…"
"It's not that, Gary! It's the death of Professor Utonium. She still hasn't gotten over it and it's starting to put our marriage in jeopardy."
"Have you tried makin' a move on her?"
"Yeah, but she rejects it every single time! What can I do?" Brick turned silent after that was said and Gary frowned with him as he gave him a reassuring pat on the shoulder.
Awwww, poor Brick. It appears that their long day will be even longer at this rate. Wait a minute! What's this?! There appears to something going on near the secret observatory volcano at the park. Well! We have visitors! Let's see who they are!
"Brrrr!" Anna shook her head as she was still getting use to teleporting. "Damn, I've gotta get the hang of this sooner or later!"
"Hang in there, Anna." Kristoff reassured as he looked over at Ibuki and Alex, who just got themselves together. They were all still dressed in their battle suits from their trip of Ratchet and Clank's universe. "Is this Townsville?"
"Yep!" Ibuki replied as she just finished dusting herself off. "Good ol' Townsville, USA. This is where the Powerpuff Girls live."
"Who are they?" Anna asked with curiosity.
"The Powerpuff Girls are a trio of crime fighting sisters who were created by Professor Utonium. They have superpowers that you would not believe! They can fly, shoot out laser beams from their eyes, have extremely power packed punches and kicks, and even two of them have powers of their own. Bubbles has like a super scream and Blossom has ice breath. They're all really cool to hang out with, too."
"Awesome!" Kristoff and Anna commented together as they were both getting excited about meeting this super trio. Alex looked all over the place and smiled with a deep breath as Ibuki just looked out with the others.
"I'll bet they're grown up by now." The American grappler pointed out. The kunoichi nodded in agreement.
"Yep!" She agreed. "Probably older than me, though. Damn it."
"Only by a couple of years! It's no big deal."
"Yeah, I know. But, listen up, guys. This is crucial!" Ibuki turned towards the others, forming a meeting circle. "Clank gave me the info on Blossom and Brick's marriage and it's currently in a downward spiral right now. The Professor is the closest person the girls had to a Father and Blossom's taking the most pain from his loss, costing her marriage. Her sisters have probably tried to help with the coping, but it hasn't worked out. We're gonna change that… together."
"Are we gonna have sex this time?" Anna asked eagerly, making Kristoff blush while shaking his head with embarrassment.
"We'll squeeze it in sometime today. Besides, look at the sky." They all did so and smiled. "It's two hours away from noon and we're gonna make the most of it this time. It'll give 'em some inspiration."
"YES!"
"Who goes there?!" Asked a familiar evil genius voice. All four of them looked up to where the source came from and they just saw Mojo Jojo come down the stairs from his observatory. "Who are you?! There should be no strangers around my land!"
"Mojo Jojo." Ibuki started smoothly as she kneeled down towards the short-tempered monkey. "I see you haven't changed. You're still ugly as holy Hell."
"Grrrr, shut up! Shut up! Hurry up and introduce yourself before I zap you with my lasers!"
"Chill out, monkey boy. I'm Ibuki and this is my boyfriend, Alex… and Princess Anna of Arendelle and her lover, Kristoff, the Official Ice Master and Deliverer of Arendelle."
"Arendelle? Where is that?"
"That's none of your business!" Anna exclaimed.
"Humph! Such a sassy mouth for a princess. Now, what are you doing here?"
"We're here to see the Powerpuff Girls… well… preferably Blossom." Alex replied. "Her marriage with Brick is goin' haywire and we gotta help 'em. Know where they might be at?"
"They're all at work! What do you care?!"
"We care about them very much, thank you." Ibuki replied with an attitude. "Since you wanna be such an asshole, we'll look for them ourselves." After that was said, the group left the green monkey alone as he was growling at that second to last statement. When he was out of earshot, he had one thing to say:
"Humph! An asshole, am I? Well, they're never know that I murdered the Professor right before he took his immortality potion to try to break up their marriages."
OH, NO! Mojo Jojo murdered the Professor?! And I thought he died of natural causes! I sure do hope our new friends can figure this out before it's too late to fix the marriage! Ohhhhhh, the horror of it all!
An hour went by since they arrived and, so far, they were kindly greeted by everyone they encountered, despite the spacesuits they were still wearing. By the time they got to a bus stop, Anna pointed out an aquarium right across from them and was jumping with glee, which was a little embarrassing for Kristoff.
"Good lookin' out, Anna." Ibuki commented as she and the others looked over at Lively Bubbles. "Excited, though, huh?"
"You bet!" Anna replied as she hugging Kristoff, who blushed after a moment with a smile of humor as he returned the embrace. "I've always wanted to go to an aquarium!"
"And it's the right one, too. I've heard from one of those people that this is where Bubbles is. She's a Marine Biologist over there."
"And I'm guessing Boomer is workin' with her, right?" Alex pointed out.
"You got it. Let's see if they know about Blossom's problem."
Five minutes later, inside the aquarium…
"Yeah, Blossom hasn't been herself since Professor Utonium passed away from a seizure two years ago." Bubbles replied in an adorable voice as she was sitting in her office with Boomer right next to her on her left while Ibuki and the others were sitting before her in separate chairs, having Alex being the only one standing behind Ibuki. "Usually, she was full of authority, became more outgoing, and just has mad sex with Brick every single night. But now, all that seems to be gone, especially the intimacy."
"And Brick has been trying to rekindle that fire for months." Boomer added in a handsome semi-country voice.
"Well, that's why we're here." Ibuki announced. "All four of us are gonna help your sister out with this tragedy."
"That would really help us out." Bubbles pleaded sweetly. "Because Buttercup and I had already given up on it. What do you plan to do?"
"Well, first of all, where's Blossom?"
"She's at the Townsville Science and Technology Institute. She's the Head Scientist over there, which is fulfilling the Professor's will."
"Damn!" Alex and Kristoff muttered with impressed looks on their faces. Anna showed one as well, but remained as observant as Ibuki as Bubbles continued.
"It was something she's always wanted to be, regardless of the will. So far, she's the best. But, something keeps bothering me about her, besides her marriage going down the tubes: She keeps saying that the Professor's death wasn't natural, but I don't believe it. It's like she knows what really happened to him, but Buttercup and I are NOT buying it. What about you?"
"You said he died from a seizure, right?" Anna asked in a serious tone that she was born with. Bubbles and Boomer nodded simultaneously. "Hmmmm… seems natural to me."
"I know, right? Can you please talk to her for us and get her marriage back on track? Here's the address to the Institute." Bubbles paused as she wrote down the address and handed it to Ibuki, who held on to it like her life depended on it.
"You can count on us." Ibuki replied with a salute. "And to make the plan even better, how about we let the boys talk to Brick?"
"What?!" Anna asked with shock, but before she could continue to contradict the young kunoichi…
"An excellent idea." Boomer interrupted as he pulled out a card and handed it to Alex, who reach over Ibuki's shoulder to retrieve it. "That's the address to the building he's currently constructin' on right now. He's not alone, but trust me. Being the only man on the team that can fly, it's easy to spot him."
"Thanks, Boomer." Alex replied with a smile and a nod with Kristoff. "We'll treat him gently."
"Thank you so much." The blue couple replied together with a bow of sincerity before the four left to start the mission of saving a marriage.
Five seconds later, outside the aquarium…
"I thought you said that we're gonna have sex today!" Anna exclaimed with sadness. Ibuki gave her a charming grin that told her everything would be fine.
"Don't worry, Anna." Ibuki started. "We're gonna get there. Right now, we've gotta talk to Blossom and Brick first. Alex, Kristoff… make sure you two find something better to wear before you go to that construction site... well, just Kristoff. Alex, you're cool."
"No problem." Kristoff replied with a salute before he and Alex made a run for the Townsville Mall. As for the ladies, they walked in a different direction towards a female clothing store to find better clothes of their own. After a pleasant ten minute walk, they made it inside and started to casually shop around for clothes. During that time, Anna's thoughts trailed back to Blossom's statement from her cool blue sister. Hearing the fact that the pink eyed leader thought that Professor Utonium's death wasn't from a seizure really did start to spark her smart half of the princess' brain. With that in mind, she caught up with Ibuki, who was scanning for the perfect tunic at a discount rack.
"Hey, Ibuki. Shouldn't we take Blossom's words into consideration?" Anna started with concern. "I mean, I know I said that a seizure seems natural, but now… I'm starting to regret saying that. Maybe Blossom does know something that we don't. She is the leader, isn't she?"
"Yeah, you're right." Ibuki agreed. "When we get to her, we should probably listen to everything she has to say first before we get our point across. Besides, I'll bet she's never been wrong since she became a woman."
"I have no doubt about that. Let's make her feel better, too."
"Exactly what I was thinkin'."
Aha! Blossom's up to something here. She probably knows that the Professor was murdered instead of dying naturally. Does she really know for a fact that it's Mojo Jojo who killed him? Hmmm… I kinda like these new friends. Let's see what they can do. Oh, I am crossing my fingers right now, even though you can't see me.
Meanwhile, at the construction site…
Alex and Kristoff, who was now dressed in identical tank top, blue baggy jean, and pure white sneaker outfits with Alex's tank being green and Kristoff's being baby blue, just arrived at that very same site and a nearly obese Caucasian man with brown shaggy hair and matching eyes dressed in a black business suit approached them as soon as they grabbed their hard hats for safety right before the entrance.
"Whoa! We got new faces!" He started in a friendly gruff voice. "What are your names, fellas?"
"I'm Alex and this is Kristoff…" The American Grappler started.
"…the Official Ice Master and Deliverer of Arendelle." Kristoff concluded with a salute before Alex continued.
"We're here to see Brick Jojo. We… heard a tip about his marriage being in deep trouble and we're here to help him feel better about this whole thing."
"Did Bubbles send ya?"
"…yeah." Kristoff managed to reply after they both became speechless at the sudden question. "How… how did you…?"
"She usually comes here every day to help soothe Brick when his fellow co-workers couldn't do a thing. I'm guessing you guys came here to help her out since she's busy today. Am I right?"
"…kinda. We're here with our girlfriends, Anna and Ibuki. They're going to talk to Blossom about the same thing… and probably get down to the bottom of Professor Utonium's death."
"Well! This is great news, guys. Go ahead and talk to Brick. Let him down gently for us, would ya?"
You can count on us, sir!" Both men replied together with an honorable salute before they made their way to the elevator to search for Brick.
Fifteen seconds later…
"Nice to meet you guys, first of all." Brick greeted as he just sat down at the very top horizontal beam of the site with Kristoff sitting on his left and Alex sitting on his right. "Secondly, thanks for your deepest condolences. Blossom would really appreciate it once your girls get to her. So, is it true that Bubbles said that she and Buttercup don't believe the fact that the Professor's death wasn't natural?"
"Yeah." Kristoff replied. "Blossom has total confidence in herself about it. She must have a gut feeling that something wasn't right about Utonium's death."
"She's probably right. Blossom's never been wrong about anything since we reunited. I've got total faith in her… but with our marriage dwindling down, it's been a bit of a struggle to keep the faith."
"That's why we're here, man." Alex reassured with a few pats on the Rowdyruff Man's shoulder and a smile that he couldn't look away from, due to its sincerity. "We're gonna make you feel better and keep that faith alive. Deep down, you still love her, right?"
"I love her more than anything else in the world. She's my wingless angel and I would do anything for her."
"Well, just keep that in your heart and kick those shitty divorce thoughts outta your head because, by tonight, you two are gonna fuck like you haven't fucked in ten years!"
"Awww, thank you so much, you guys." Brick managed to give both of his newest friends a group hug that was warm both physically and spiritually. "So, do we just wait for your girls to call up and let us know what's up?"
"Yeah." Kristoff replied with a cheerful smile. "And while we wait, lemme just ask you one question: Do you want us to give you some visual inspiration before you start the good shit?"
"That'll help us out, yeah. Blossom… kinda forgot how to get intimate."
"And you also?"
"Ohhhh, no. I've got it down. It's mainly Blossom that needs the help."
"Oh, okay." Alex replied. "We'll stay here and you just keep workin'. We'll let you know when something comes up."
"Thanks again, you guys. I promise we'll repay you for it."
Awwww, that's so touching. It appears that those guys have really cheered up Brick to the point where he's regained the energy and confidence to go back to work. Now, it's time to see if the ladies got just as much luck as they did. They are at the institute right now and just making their way to Blossom's office after getting out the elevator at the highest 10th floor.
Inside Blossom's office, the leader herself was currently scanning through various files of past experiments from her beloved Professor and tried so hard to fight back her tears as she spotted the very formula that gave birth to her and her sisters, having her make an even bigger grin when she saw the words 'CHEMICAL X' in big bold letters at the very end of the lengthy equation. Five silent minutes later, she heard three soft knocks at her door, but never turned away as she responded.
"Come in!" She called out in a sultry deep voice that would mesmerize every man who heard it. Ibuki, who was dressed in a black tunic with a blue jean skirt and black knee high boots, and Anna, who wore an adorable blue, green, and black summer dress with white knee high boots, both walked in and stopped just before Blossom's desk before she turned around, astonished to see Ibuki. "Ibuki! I haven't seen you since that anime convention we all went to at the convention center three years ago. You've changed."
"Yeah, I know." Ibuki replied as she took a seat in her own chair next to Anna, who did the same on her right. "This is Princess Anna of Arendelle. We both came here with our boyfriends to discuss something with you. I… hope it's not a bad time."
"No, it's alright." Blossom approached her desk and took a seat in her leather chair before she continued. "I'm guessing you're here to help me cope with Professor Utonium's death…"
"…and to save your marriage." Anna added. "Brick's been worried about you and so have your sisters and their husbands. You just won't lay a finger on Brick, though."
"That's because I haven't been able to find closure just yet. I know the Professor's death was caused by someone. He's been murdered and I'm not gonna be satisfied about his death until I find out whoever is responsible."
"I figured you'd say that." Ibuki pointed out. "Your sisters are finding it hard to believe that Utonium was murdered and that's why they're kinda steering clear from ya."
"Let them, damn it! My heart keeps telling me that the Professor's death was intentional and, if they don't believe it, then let them keep that in their minds, then. I love my sisters, but I can't let them believe something that isn't true."
"Damn. You're really tearing up about this. Are you planning to investigate this on your own?"
"I was planning on going back to our old house and down to the Professor's lab. I was just looking through the files here and I noticed that one is missing. A few of my fellow colleagues are about to head over there in a few minutes and retrieve that missing file. Would you like to come along with us?"
"Sure, we'd love to!" Anna replied happily before she noticed the bow. "Awww, you're keeping that bow, huh?"
"Heh… yeah." Blossom gently grabbed a gentle hold on that famous red bow to prove it. "This was that last thing the Professor touched before he died and I'm never, ever gonna get rid of it, no matter what people say about it."
"Atta girl!" Ibuki cheered.
And so, with that in mind, Blossom, Anna, and Ibuki all headed back to the girls' old humble home they've lived in since their birth in the underground lab. One of Blossom's trusted co-workers, a lovely young woman named Brittivana Florence, drove the company van towards the very location with Ibuki and Anna sitting in the back with three more workers, who happened to be all men that ranged between the ages of 30 and 50. Blossom flew beside the van and she appears to be crying, but with a strong look of determination in those glistening pink eyes. Looks like Ibuki sees that and she too is looking determined. Anna isn't even looking out the window, but she's just as hopeful as the others. It was all silent, though… even in Blossom's perspective. Oop! They finally made it. Let's see what they'll find.
"You miss this lab?" Anna dared to ask as she led the way inside the underground lab with the Powerpuff leader on her right and Ibuki on her left. Blossom bowed her head with a smile.
"All the time." She replied as she saw that it was untouched since the Professor's death. Seconds after that was said, her colleagues wasted no time investigating without her command, immediately obeying her. "I never asked questions about how he came up with the lab in the first place and neither did my sisters. We were just happy to have a Father like him."
"Awwww, that's so sweet."
"No kiddin'." Ibuki agreed as she started searching the floor while Anna went over to a closet. Blossom stayed close to Ibuki. "There's a dent right here at this spot on the floor. I'm guessing that's where the Professor died."
"The exact location, yes." Blossom replied as she kneeled down with her. "And not a single spot of blood on it. What could've happened?"
"He probably just collapsed, but without his head getting the hard hit on the way."
"That could be it." Blossom pulled out a DNA sampling kit from her brown leather suitcase and swabbed up some samples from that dent before placing it in a small plastic bag. "Doing an autopsy via DNA is possible in my facility and it'll really determine the landing."
"Awesome!" Ibuki paused as she looked over at the solemn leader, who then started to gently rub that same dent with all the love in her soul. The kunoichi started to frown with her as she continued. "Blossom, if it mean anything, I just wanna let ya know that I know how it feels to lose a Dad."
"…you do?" Blossom gave the young ninja her undivided attention while still keeping her slender left hand on that fated dent in the white tile floor.
"Yeah. Even though he's more a master than a Father, Enjo was the best. A bloody battle finally got the best of him shortly after I turned twenty. Yuta, my adoptive brother, he witnessed the whole thing and told me all about it. I was in pain for the next three weeks."
"How did you get over it?"
"I continued to be the best damn ninja I can be! That's what I did! You can do the same. You may have lost your beloved Father, but as long as you still keep this amazing career you got, keep your marriage alive by giving Brick all the love in the world, and still keep the love of your sisters… Father Utonium is still with you. Sulking about it for too long is not good for ya."
"…thank you so much, Ibuki." Blossom gave the kunoichi an embrace that was soothing to all who witnessed it, having the leader's tears stream down her face and onto Ibuki's tunic. "That makes me feel so much better. So…" She paused as she released the hug. "…does that mean that the Professor's resting in peace?"
"Whether you find the true cause of his death or not, yes. Just the fact that you still support your sisters, their husbands, and your husband is enough to allow him to rest in perfect harmony up in Heaven, girl. Remember that."
"I sure will."
"Ah, there's a smile."
"IBUKI! BLOSSOM! LOOK AT THIS!' Anna called out, which actually called over everyone, having the Powerpuff leader next to the Princess of Arendelle before everybody. Blossom gasped with horror as she saw what the princess pointed out: "There's an empty bottle of cyanide in here. Is that a major clue?"
"The Professor would NEVER keep poisons in this lab!" Blossom exclaimed as she pulled out a pair of black rubber gloves from her left pocket of her lab coat and picked it up carefully. "Someone else used this! My speculations were correct, then. Somebody murdered the Professor!"
"Wow… she was right."
"Always trust your gut." Ibuki quoted smoothly with crossed arms.
"Lawrence, do a DNA scan on this bottle immediately!" Blossom commanded as she handed over the same small glass bottle to the tall, blonde haired man in his mid-forties. He was already in a hazmat suit, ready to go. "We'll find the true culprit with it. Just finding the evidence was the beginning." Blossom slowly stood up after that was said and turned towards her colleagues and new friends, preferably Anna and Ibuki. "Can one of you call Brick for me? I forgot to bring my cell phone with me."
"I've got it." Ibuki replied as she pulled out her cell phone. "What's his number? I'll put him on speaker."
Meanwhile, back at the construction site…
Brick was just flying up to a swinging red beam to apply more foundation with three other co-workers. By the time he finished the attachment, his cell phone vibrated in his right cargo pants pocket. He remained in mid-air as he saw that it was Ibuki and answered it.
"What's up, Ibuki?" Brick started smoothly. It was in a split-screen conversation.
"Brick, I found a crucial clue to the Professor's death." Blossom replied with happiness in her deep, angelic voice.
"You did?"
"Yes! I found an empty bottle of cyanide in his closet in the lab!" She paused as another male colleague just handed her the missing file, which was the formula to an immortality potion. It was dated about two years ago. "And I just got the missing file! It turns out that the Professor constructed this formula for an immortality vaccine at the same date he died… except… hold on."
"Uh, oh…" Brick showed an angry look of bravery as he flew up towards Kristoff and Alex at the very top and put his phone on speaker without none of the three men saying a word as they waited for a response from the Rowdyruff leader's beloved wife. After two minutes of silence, Blossom became pissed.
"…it was sabotaged. I can clearly see the erase marks where the true final ingredient was supposed to be." She pointed out as Ibuki and Anna were looking at the document as well. They never said a word, but kept glares of resentment in their eyes as well. "The final ingredient was supposed to be basically a bottle of green tea extract, but whoever the murderer was, they replaced it with cyanide and the Professor became completely oblivious. The fucking bastard!"
"So, your gut was right after all, baby. But, the only question now is… who did it?"
"That's what Lawrence is working on right now as we speak. As soon as we get a match, we'll have our criminal and I'll make sure he pays for it!"
"Huh! You're saying 'he' like you know it's another man who killed him."
"I've never been wrong, Brick. Never!"
"Heh! I know that's right. Make sure you tell Bubbles and Buttercup about this. Prove 'em wrong."
"I'm about to do that in a minute, but before I do, I just have one thing to say…"
"What's that, Blossom-babe?"
"…I'm sorry for ignoring you for these past few months. Tonight, I promise. I'll make it up to you… and let you dominate the bed."
"…wwwwwhat? Are you… are you serious?"
"Yes, baby. I'm serious. I want you to fuck me really good, okay? Make me beg you to never stop."
"…you got it, baby girl. I love you."
"I love you too, Brick. See you tonight."
"See ya." After that was said, Brick hung up the phone and cheered at the very top of his lungs: "YES! Finally!"
"I know you're totally happy about it." Kristoff quoted smoothly. "I guess we don't need to inspire you with our performances, do we?"
"Awww, no. You guys came here to have a good time and it's gonna happen. I've got a surefire plan on how Blossom and I can enjoy our evening while you guys do the same without us with you."
"Huh?" Alex and Kristoff asked together with extreme bewilderment.
Phew! The marriage has been saved, but now, I'm waiting to see if Mojo Jojo is really the true criminal behind Professor Utonium's death. They'll be shocked, if they were to find out now. Don't do anything too reckless, Blossom. Please don't.
Back at the Powerpuff's old house, ten minutes went by since finding the empty cyanide bottle and Lawrence finally completed a thorough DNA scan of it. He then printed it out from his portable printer and handed it to Blossom, who was sitting on a couch with Ibuki and Anna, having the Powerpuff leader sitting in the middle. When she saw the results, she filled up with all the fury in her system. Ibuki knew what she was thinking and handed over her cell phone, allowing Blossom to call Buttercup first.
Over at Rowdyruff Extreme, Buttercup, who was dressed in a long green tank top with baggy black gothic pants and matching black sneakers, just heard the phone ring as she was coming in from her lunch with Butch, who came in not too long after her. He was shirtless and wore the same baggy jeans as his wife. She picked up the phone and was happy to hear Blossom.
"Hey, Bloss. What's up?" Buttercup started in a female voice that said she lived in the streets.
"Buttercup, I want you to keep Butch at your shop while you retrieve Bubbles and meet me at the old house." Blossom commanded with the authority she was destined to have. The green eyed sister became wide eyed with shock.
"Why? What's wrong?"
"Just get her and get over here NOW!"
"Alright, alright! We're on our way!" She hung up and looked over at Butch with a worried gleam in her eyes. "Butch, you keep your ass here and guard the pad. I think Blossom was right about this shit."
"Take your time, babe." Butch replied with a deep rapper's tone of voice. "I've got this in the da bag."
I never thought I'd say this again, even after they've grown into beautiful young women, but… GO GIRLS! GO!
Back at the house in the living room…
"Well, I'll be damned." Buttercup muttered with clenched teeth and crossed arms of complete guilt as Bubbles got in the circle of women, including Anna and Ibuki. "Blossom was right all along. Professor Utonium was murdered. I guess, first of all, we owe you an apology for denyin' it. We just… really didn't want that to be the cause."
"Yeah." Bubbles agreed with just as much shame. "We're sorry, Blossom."
"It's okay, girls." Blossom replied with sincerity. "But, we're not outta the woods yet. We scanned the fingerprints on that cyanide bottle and you'll never believe who the culprit is…"
"Mojo." Bubbles and Buttercup replied in a bored tone simultaneously, making Blossom nod once in satisfaction. Ibuki was stunned, but with Anna meeting them for the first time, she remained focused as she paid close attention.
"What does he have to do with the Professor?!" Ibuki asked in wonder.
"It's obvious, Ibuki." Blossom replied. "He hated his Rowdyruff Sons being married to us and is going to incredible lengths to play with our emotions, possibly getting us to tear apart from them via divorce."
"Well, it didn't work, did it?"
"I'm closer to Brick now, thanks to this discovery. We just need to allow the Professor to rest in peace completely and our lives will be perfect."
"Are we gonna kick Mojo's ass?" Buttercup asked.
"We will band together, just like old times, yes."
"Awesome! This is gonna be some sick shit!"
"It'll be a great way to honor the Professor, too." Bubbles added with glee. "He's watching over us."
"And he'll never look away." Blossom concluded with watery eyes, but never leaked any tears as she turned towards Anna and Ibuki. "You two have been very helpful in finding this out. Just for that, I'll let you and your mates have this house as your mating grounds. Brick and I will stay at our mansion and Bubbles… Buttercup… I want you two to be our only two witnesses."
"Nice." Buttercup commented with a nod. "We won't even make as much as a whisper, then."
"It's been five whole months since you've had sex with Brick." Bubbles pointed out. "You deserve it. Call it 'rewriting your vows'."
"Now, you're speaking my language."
"Are you serious, though?" Anna asked with a flummoxed look on her freckled face. "You're gonna let all four of us play around in this house?"
"Well, they're gonna tear this place down tomorrow, so…"
"YOU two can do it here and we'll just stay at a hotel." Ibuki came in abruptly, making all three Powerpuffs jump with surprise, having Blossom nod with a regal smile of authenticity. "As much as we'd love to do it here, I really want you and Brick to make this as momentous of an occasion as possible. Like Bubbles said, it's been so long since you two had an insane fuck fest. Make this one the best one since ya'll tied the knot."
"…thanks, Ibuki. In that case, you all have fun, then. As for me, Brittivana…"
"Yes, Blossom?" The brunette replied in a normal female voice.
"I'm clocking out early."
"Enough said. C'mon, everyone! Let's clean this up and make sure you leave that bottle of cyanide here and take the missing file!"
"Yes, ma'am!" The rest of the colleagues replied as they obeyed those orders.
Ohhh, Mojo is gonna pay! Now that the girls figured it out and Blossom's marriage is saved by these courageous newcomers, it's about time to settle the score… and… oh, God. Do I have to watch the sex? I do?! Oh, boy… well, I'll keep quiet when it's time, then. Anyway, the girls are now flying their new friends towards the top floor of that very same hotel, having Buttercup carrying Anna and Blossom carrying Ibuki, both by their arms. During the flight, Bubbles starts the conversation. Let's listen in.
"So, Ibuki…" Bubbles starts. "…what brings ya here to Towsnville besides fixing up Blossom's marriage?"
"Alex and I are on a travelling spree as a celebration of my 21st birthday." Ibuki replied. Hearing those last two words made the remaining Powerpuffs smile as they turned towards her, having Blossom look down.
"Awww, congratulations!" The leader commented. "How does it feel?"
"It doesn't feel any different from being twenty, but it still feels great to finally do whatever I want. We've been all over the place and I did have Don with me…"
"But?"
"…but he's staying in Arendelle to be their king."
"Whoa!" Buttercup chimed in. "Really?!"
"Yeah." Anna replied. "He was attracted to my sister, Queen Elsa, and he really swore to be the best damn king he can be. He's probably being a better king than our Dad, but it doesn't bother me. I'm just happy for him."
"Me, too." Ibuki added. After that was said, they all finally landed on the 30th floor balcony and they were shocked to see someone was already there: "ALEX?!"
"KRISTOFF?!" Anna asked immediately after the young kunoichi as all five ladies made it inside, having the Princess of Arendelle tackle her Ice Master lover towards the king sized bed behind him while Ibuki nearly did the same towards Alex. The American Grappler managed to keep his balance as he embraced his adorable ninja girlfriend. The Powerpuffs watched this with adoring smiles and remained silent as they listened.
"How did you guys get here so fast?!" Ibuki asked with all the happiness in her heart. Alex looked down at her with a handsome smile you wouldn't dare to look away from while he still kept her in his massive arms without crushing her.
"It should be obvious, babe." He replied. Then, as if on cue, Brick came out from the dark shadows with a smooth smirk on his face, immediately alluring Blossom to approach him with a seductive glare of her own. Seeing this event alone was enough to supply the answer to Ibuki's question. By the time the two were in each other's arms, they were engaged in a violently passionate kiss that emitted lustful moans from both of them. Everyone around them watched in awe for the next five minutes until Brick and Blossom broke free from their kiss, looking deeply into each other's eyes.
"Mm! After a kiss like that, it's safe to say that you are forgiven for ignoring me for these past few months." Brick professionally quoted, sounding deep and mesmerizing towards his Powerpuff wife.
"Thank you so much." Blossom replied with authenticity. "Like I said before, I promise I'll make it up to you tonight. As I recall the last time we made love, I was on top of you."
"Yeah, I remember. Having you being the alpha female that night really did inspire me on how to be the alpha male. The only difference is that I won't be able to see these hop along with you." The Rowdyruff released the embrace and gently squeezed Blossom's pair of Cs to prove that point and she released a harmonic groan at that erotic touch. "Yeah, baby. They'll probably still dance for me while I have you pinned down."
"We'll see, won't we?" The Powerpuff leader leaned in for another quick kiss on her husband's soft lips after that was said and, remaining in his arms, she turned towards her sisters, who just flew up to them as if it was on cue. Anna, Kristoff, Ibuki, and Alex were now the spectators. "First thing's first, though… we still have some unfinished business with your Father."
"Mojo?"
"Yes. He murdered the Professor by sabotaging his immortality potion with cyanide as the final ingredient instead of the green tea extract."
"…huh. That make sense."
"You're calm about this?" Bubbles asked in wonder. Brick finally released his wife from the embrace as he bowed his head and scratched the back of it with guilt.
"I know I shouldn't be, but let's face it. He's hated our marriage for months. Doing something like this in order to try to break us up is a little bit too extreme."
"That's because he knows he'll get his monkey ass kicked, if he ever tried to physically break us apart." Buttercup pointed out. "So, fuckin' with our emotions was his best plan and, unfortunately, I think his plan to kill us back when we were kids with that shitty crab machine was better, even with the chewing gum trap we easily ate through."
"In your manner of speaking, I'll have to agree." Blossom replied. "Brick, before we express our love once more, the girls and I are going to kill your Father for his murder. At this rate, placing him in jail for it just isn't enough."
"I understand, Blossom-baby." Brick reassured with another gentle embrace that made her feel protected on the inside as well as the outside. "I'll be sure to let my brothers know about it. Butch might not like it, but Boomer will soothe him for us. You do whatever you can to kill him. He was a deadbeat Dad, anyway. Didn't give a shit about us once we became grown men."
"Just as I suspected. As mayors of Townsville, it's the right thing to do." She paused as she and her sisters turned towards the four guests. "We'll leave this room to you all. Feel free to do what you please."
"Thanks, girls." Ibuki replied as she just freed herself from her American lover's arms. "Make sure you flip him off before he releases his last breath for us, would ya?"
"I'll have that job. No problem!" Buttercup declared with a salute.
"Alright, girls." Blossom started with authority. "Let's finish this monkey business once and for all… and Father Utonium…" She paused as her sisters looked up at the ceiling with her. "…watch us. You'll be sleeping as peacefully as Bubbles with the hall light on."
"Yeah… hey!" Bubbles agreed, then spat with embarrassment as she blushed with an angry glare at the Powepuff leader, who held a smile of humor with her eyes still focused on the ceiling. Buttercup held back her possibly hysterical laugh at that statement as well. Same went for everyone else around the trio, having Anna break a sweat.
Ten minutes of a silent flight later…
The girls had just busted through the roof of the observatory and, when they floated just above the metal tiled floor, they saw what they didn't expect: Mojo Jojo was sitting in an electric chair-like machine with clear pipes all over his body, having one on each forearm, one on each thigh, and three attached to his famous hat that hid his genius brain. Buttercup and Bubbles maintained their positions as they stared down at the monkey, who was a pale green color and could only groan as his response to their presence. Blossom looked all over the machine and saw what the pipes led to: a ten 50 gallon clear dispenser full of resin in its liquid form. Seeing that made her realize one thing:
"This is the only way Mojo Jojo can die, even with the Chemical X giving eternal life."
"He knew we would find out about it." Bubbles added. Buttercup approached the silent monkey and took a good look at him carefully without touching him for five seconds before she dared to ask him the question:
"Why the fuck… did you kill the Professor?"
"…your marriages." Mojo replied in a raspy, low tone of his signature voice of an evil mastermind. "I wanted… to ruin… your marriages. I hated you marrying my Rowdyruff Boys, so yes. I sabotaged the formula. I murdered your precious Professor. I did it, so your marriages could be ruined through emotional stress."
"You know damn well we don't give in to our emotions that easily!"
"Indeed." Blossom agreed with Bubbles nodded as they both approached their mean green sister, having the leader of her left and the blue blonde on the right. "You tried and you failed, Mojo. The Professor may be dead, but since he was the closest man we had to call a Father, he will forever live within our spirits. Having you kill him due to your hate over our marriages was just a stupid excuse to prove your genius at the very last minute."
"So what? He had it coming. Now, since you all are here to kill me for my crime, go right ahead. I will not stop you."
"Should we, Blossom?" Bubbles asked in wonder, looking around Buttercup to see her eldest sister, who bowed her head with sincerity.
"Just so you know, Mojo… before you die… before he created us, you were the best companion the Professor ever had. He even treated you like you were his son."
"…I know he did. Killing him was foolish of me. You girls honor him forever and I'll rot in Hell with Him from this moment on." The girls were all at the activating switch by the end of that last word, having Blossom's slender hand on the lever, ready to kill the maniacal monkey once and for all. "Take good care… of my sons for me, then."
"We promise." All three ladies replied before Blossom pulled the lever and the liquid resin started to make its way into the monkey's body and he screeched at the very top of his lungs with extreme pain for the next five minutes. During that time, the girls never lost their regal glares of satisfaction with small smirks on their faces.
Awww, and I wanted to see a massive beat down. Oh, well. Killing him with the next deadliest poison next to cyanide is a great way to end his miserable life. I didn't call him Townsville's favorite villain for nothing.
In part two of this epic episode, I have to watch three couples have sex: Alex and Ibuki, Anna and Kristoff, and Blossom and Brick. The first two will be interesting to watch, especially considering the fact that Alex is MASSIVE compared to Ibuki. As for Blossom and Brick, it'll just be… uuugh… insane. I know it will.
Hopefully, you all will enjoy them better than I will.
See ya in part 2, everyone. I would say 'The day is saved', but… well… you get it.
To be continued…
