After school, the six of them met up at the same field Blossom and Brick had battled yesterday. Here, they could cause as much damage as they wanted to without people getting hurt. Buttercup smiled wickedly. She had been waiting awhile to do this.
"So who should fight first?" Brick asked.
"Buttercup for us and you guys can choose who you want to fight her," Blossom said.
Butch smirked. "I've got this."
Buttercup and Butch stood in the middle of the field and everyone else was in a nearby tree.
"You really think we should be up here?" Brick asked.
"Knowing how mad Buttercup is, yes," Blossom answered.
The four of them watched as Buttercup took a stance and Butch came at her. Buttercup blocked him, then grabbed both of his wrists and spun him around, then released him. Butch was sent flying and he crashed into the ground. He rubbed his head and then sped toward her. Buttercup did the same. Their hands met with a boom. The four watched the strength battle that was happening.
Bubbles took out a granola bar from her bag and began chewing on it. Boomer looked at her with a raised eyebrow. Bubbles shrugged and looked back down. Butch was winning and then Buttercup went full force and overpowered him. Butch let go and flew back from her.
Buttercup used her speed and threw punches at him. The dark green boy dodged her punches easily. The green girl feigned one of her punches and then hit him. Once she did, she kept hitting him. Butch was on the verge of being knocked out cold when Blossom touched Buttercup's shoulder. Buttercup looked at her and then at Butch.
"Better?" Blossom asked.
"A little," Buttercup replied.
"Close combat isn't going to help against them though," the red headed girl said.
"Then what do you suggest, princess?" Brick asked her.
"We need to work on attacking from afar," Blossom replied. "Then after we've worn them down, we can do close combat."
Bubbles nodded. "Sonic screams will be good."
"Right," Blossom said. "You have the strongest scream. Buttercup's brute strength won't help us much, but after Bubbles' scream, Buttercup will be able to go in and attack."
"You keep coordinating between you three," Brick interjected. "We told you we'd help."
Blossom looked at him. "I'm used to working with only my sisters. It'll take me awhile to get used to this."
"Same here," the red eyed boy said.
"Bubbles can still do her scream. Buttercup and Butch can go in to attack," Blossom corrected.
"What about the three of us?" Boomer asked.
"I'm working on that. I can use my ice breath to freeze them in place, giving you two enough time to move in and attack with everything you've got," Blossom said.
"It sounds like a solid plan, but what if you and Bubbles get hurt?" Boomer asked.
"You keep fighting," Blossom replied.
Bubbles nodded. "It's our duty to protect Townsville. Every time we have entered a fight, we have been prepared to die."
The Rowdyruffs looked at the girls. They had never seen such determination in them. The fact that they are prepared to die for Townsville made them more like heroes than they already were.
"Why do you three insist on doing what you can for a town that rejected you at first?" Brick asked.
"It's our sworn duty. We decided to help them. Even if they reject us again, we'll still help them. We'd rather have people alive and hating us then having people dead," Blossom replied.
"And it's a major stress relief," Buttercup threw in.
"Isn't that why you hit that monkey robot in the first place?" Bubbles asked, giggling.
Green eyes looked at her. "Yeah. I was getting majorly angry. The stupid dog kept getting into more trouble and I couldn't take it anymore."
"If it weren't for Buttercup, we probably would have never started fighting crime in the first place," Blossom said.
"You are Butch's counterpart," Brick said.
Buttercup rolled her eyes. "So, should we continue?" Blossom said.
"Bubbles and Boomer are up," Brick said.
Bubbles and Boomer looked at each other. Bubbles smiled and took on a fighting stance. Boomer took on a stance without smiling. The remaining four backed away from the two and stood by the tree.
Bubbles waited for Boomer to attack and then used her sonic scream. Boomer clamped his hands on his ears. Bubbles swept her leg under his and he fell to the ground. Boomer collected his energy in his hands and shot dark blue energy at her. Bubbles dodged and shot her ray vision at him. Boomer got out of the way and wound up behind Bubbles. He hit her back and she was sent flying into the next tree.
Bubbles rubbed her back and braced for impact as Boomer sped towards her. She met him and shot her ray vision at him again. He couldn't dodge this time and winced at the pain. They kept on fighting for a good fifteen minutes.
"You're sister's pretty smart," Butch said.
"Of course she is. She's had plenty of experience," Buttercup replied.
"Especially when all of us had our squabbles," Blossom said.
Brick smirked. "You do realize we're only helping you because we're going to be the ones to destroy you not those second rate creeps."
Blossom sighed and then smiled when she had first fought the boys. She and Bubbles had enjoyed kissing the boys cheeks. She tried to hold back laughter at the memory of the first time they had fought the boys.
"What's up with you?" Brick asked her.
"Nothing in particular," she answered.
"I think we should stop them soon," Buttercup said.
"Why? Are you afraid our brother will beat your sister?" the green eyed boy said.
Buttercup answered by punching him in the gut. Blossom shook her head. Those two were a lost cause.
"We should, but Bubbles is learning," Blossom said, watching her sister start to develop different attacks.
"Well, next up is the two of us," Brick said.
"I beat you yesterday. I think I can do it again." Blossom met the red eyed stare of her counterpart.
His eyes turned to that of amusement. "We'll see."
Finally, the two blues stopped fighting. Both needed a break. Bubbles hadn't fought like that in awhile. Boomer had with is brothers but only for a short amount of time. Both of them were panting as they walked towards their siblings.
"Your turn," Bubbles said to her sister.
Blossom nodded and went to the middle of the field with Brick following closely behind.
"What's in that granola bar?" Boomer asked Bubbles.
Buttercup glanced at her shrugging sister. "She ate one of her granola bars? It only gives her energy really. Bubbles always eats one before gymnastics, cheerleading, or basketball."
Dark blue eyes looked quizzically at the blonde haired girl. The girl shrugged her shoulders again and smiled; then turned her attention to her red headed sister.
"Blossom looks serious," Bubbles said.
The two boys looked at her quizzically. Buttercup took a closer look at her pink eyed sister and smiled. "She's probably going to beat him up after he kissed her forehead. That put her in a bad mood yesterday before we met up with the Bloody Pack," the green Powerpuff explained.
"Brick did WHAT?" the two boys half shouted.
"You mean you two didn't know?" Bubbles asked with a slight laugh.
"No," the black haired boy grunted.
Brick looked back at them and smiled. Butch gave him the evil eye while Boomer merely shook his head. Their brother of all people didn't need to be in a relationship right now. Not after what had happened.
Red eyes focused on pink ones. "Ready when you are, puff."
Blossom took a deep breath. Her eyes shot out red streaks, and Brick dodged. A pink streak moved to meet a red one. The pink eyed girl shot out pink energy at him. It hit the front of the red streak.
Brick dropped to the ground for a moment, only to hit it with enough force to make it shake. Blossom was thrown off balance, but flew up. Red lasers hit her stomach. She grunted with the impact but stayed where she was.
When pink eyes opened, red ones were right in front of her. "Don't close your eyes for a second," Brick said.
Blossom narrowed her eyes and hit him, but he dodged. Blossom opened up all of her senses. Zen was one way to win a battle. Without even seeing him, she dodged his attacks and kept on dodging. Brick knew that one way or another he was going to beat her.
Finally, Brick feigned punching and used his red energy. He got her square in the chest. Blossom hurtled towards the earth. She sat up rubbing the blood away from her mouth with the back of her hand. The puff stood with fierce determination scanning all around her for the ruff.
The girl felt strong arms around her. She gasped as he took off into the air. "You know, you can stop this. Just surrender," Brick said as they reached the height he wanted.
"The Powerpuff Girls never surrender," Blossom barked at him.
"Have it your way then."
Brick let go of her and hit her before she could react. Blossom crashed hard into the ground this time. Instead of standing, the puff stayed where she was. Her face was scrunched up in anger, but not at Brick, at herself for being weak.
"Blossom!" The two other puffs ran towards their sister. They were about to help her up when she stood on her own. Blossom had a tear running down her face. Her sisters were shocked. Their sister never cried.
"What's wrong?" Bubbles asked concerned.
"The fact that I'm weak is what's wrong," Blossom replied. "I'm not supposed to be weak."
"Blossom, you aren't weak," the blue eyed girl said.
"Yes, I am," the red head shouted.
Buttercup punched her sister in the face. The ruffs' mouths gaped open. They never thought the green puff would ever punch her sisters.
"Shut the hell up, Blossom! You are not weak. In fact, if it weren't for you, Bubbles and I would be dead by now just by killing each other. Do you know how many times you've saved our lives by your quick thinking? Or even by your sheer strength? I do not want to ever hear talk like that coming from your mouth again and if it does, I'll punch you, disown you, and not help you," Buttercup yelled.
Blossom had held her cheek out of shock, but after a moment, she laughed. The boys practically fell. Just what the heck was up with these sisters?
The red headed girl hugged the black haired girl. "Thanks, Buttercup. I needed that."
"You three are too weird," Butch said.
The girls laughed. "If being weird is normal, being normal is weird," Bubbles stated, smiling.
"What?" the green eyed boy asked confused by the statement.
Brick slapped him upside the head. "You really are hopeless."
Boomer laughed as his brothers started to get into a pointless argument. After all, that was his form of entertainment when he wasn't the one getting hit.
A.N: I don't really have anything to say this round except I hope ya'll enjoyed the chapter. :D
