Bird narrowed his eyes at the girl in front of him. She wasn't like most little girls, that was obvious. She was dressed like a punk rocker.
No tomboy.
Recycle freak?
Her baggy black capris were accompanied with a bright green vest beneath that was a simple black t shirt with holes. Her converse were written on and she wore no socks with them. Her neck was heavily decorated with bottle cap necklaces and strings. Her unruly hair was parted more to the left but kept out of her face with black and green sunglasses.
She was watching Rachel and Mary's retreating figures as calm as one would watch the sky. She didn't give a rats ass that she had just knocked someones tooth out.
Not like most girls at all.
Bird thought back to his fights at school. He always got out of hand, he always made sure the other person got hurt. For a strange reason he didn't really want to hurt her. She seemed cool. Maybe he shouldn't. He scoffed and looked to the floor silently telling her 'you're lucky I like you.
She raised an eyebrow " What's wrong scared".
"Thats it" Bird said as he began to march over to her. Surprisingly it wasn't Blaze and Bandit that held him back it was his own father.
"Brute come on be nice this is Boomer my special friend from class and his family" Bliss said. She gestured to the rest of the bystanders as Boomer introduced everyone.
" I don't like them".
"She's kidding".
"No I'm not".
"Brute you promised you'd be nice to everybody".
"I am".
"If this is her nice I'd hate to see he mean" Bandit slowly whispered to Blaze and Bird. Both boys nodded while the girls continued to bicker.
"Fine! I'll be nicer" Brute exclaimed. She marched over to the group and popped the spearmint gum in her mouth. "Sup names Brute Greengang, Bliss is my cousin. I guess I won't kick your ass today".
" Thank you" Bliss happily said while hugging her. Brute shrugged her off before replying "Yeah, yeah now come on and finish your promise, this year I'm gonna beat it".
"Beat what" Bird asked.
Brute rolled her eyes only to be elbowed by Bliss.
"Strawberry mountain has a snowboarding highscore, Brutes' tried to beat it for three years now".
"I was so close last time, this time I got it".
"Snowboarding on ice cream we're so going" Bird had long left the side of his father to speak more freely to the girls in front of him.
Brute glared at him "We didn't inv-
"Sure you guys can come" Bliss said.
"Um snowboarding is not something I'd want to be doing" Princess said. Her diamond studded sunglasses were see through so everyone saw her narrowed eyes.
"Neither is gaining ten pounds" Julie said while poking a gum drop tree.
"Theres a sweet spa if you like that, massages and stuff you just ask Patches and he takes you" Bliss informed.
Both women sneered at the little girl. When she just smiled back they grabbed their high heel shoes, put up their nose and walked away. Robin attempted to kiss both her son and husband. When both rejected it, she smiled sadly and joined her girlfriends.
" I don't know why Robin puts up with you" Boomer whispered while following the girls. Butch watched Brute for a second before replying.
"Shes weak, can't stand up for herself she'll put up with anything".
"Yeah but-
"Would you two be quiet, keep the family issues at home" Brick said. He sent each of his brothers their own personal glare before turning back to the children.
"You think we should invite Bloom" Bliss asked.
Brute thought for a moment before exhaling loudly "You're going to anyway right".
Blaze scratched the nap his neck, while Bandit and Bird snacked on licorice. "Who's-
"Yep", Come on she's right there". Bliss ran toward a orange smudge on the far left of the group. The boys started to follow her but stopped when they notice Brute static stance. It wasn't long before Bliss came back.
The orange smudge was revealed to be a girl.
She was small about the same size as Brute and Bliss. Her red hair was tied in a tight bun, a dull pink head band held back her bags. She was dressed differently from Brute. Colar shirt, pink blazer, slacks. She looked rather sophisticated for a six year old.
"Bliss, Brute where have you been. Do you know how long I have tried looking for you". she scowled at the two girls. Bliss immediately apologized while Brute smacked her gum and blew a bubble.
"Don't get your panties in a twist ,we're going to Strawberry mountain. Wanna come ?"
" Fine I'll watch,but don't you think you should go with adults you actually know" Bloom glanced warily at the Jojo brothers before turning back to the girls.
Boomer started to introduce himself however he was quickly cut off by Brick.
"We are old friends of your mothers".
Bloom eyes narrowed , "Why would I just blatantly believe you".
"Yeah you never said that" Brute pointed out.
"Well it is an invitation only party" Blaze scoffed.
Blooms pink eyes widen for a bit then she smirked and crossed her hands." How do we know you're not some relatives of a classmate".
"Can we quit the questions and go to the mountain" Bandit whined.
Bliss nodded toward him "He's right, plus they're not lying my mommy even told me she knows Boomer".
Both Brute and Bloom seemed satisfied with this and began walking toward the mountain once more.
" We're here" Bliss happily sang. All the boys scowled at her while the men raised an eyebrow.
"You said mountain this is a stupid door" Bird exclaimed. Brute rolled her eyes before pushing him through the door. His ow was accompanied with snickers and giggles as the rest of the group followed in the room.
It was a white room similar to the ones before it. In the front of the room was a large black screen while on the side different chambers beeped randomly.
" Hi patches" Bliss said. An annoyed sigh was heard as the once blank screen colored with the face of the robot from earlier.
"Well, well well I should have known you two were coming. Oh and you brought the twirling stick in the mud with you. Great" Patches said with heavy sarcasm. Bliss giggled while Brute and Bloom glared.
"Can it Toaster oven, look we needed snowboards yesterday" Brute said. Patches rolled his eyes at the insult and pressed a button off screen.
As the chambers opened each girl got in while the boys followed suit. The Jojo brothers hesitantly looked from beyond. However, a small 'please Boomer' from Bliss willed them to go inside as chambers closed and reopened each person was now warmly clothed with vanilla wafer snowboards .
"Patches I won't be needing one" Bloom said as she stepped out of the chamber. The robot said nothing the screen already blank.
"What's wrong Miss Cavity can't eat or play in sugar" Blaze asked. He had been acting childish from the moment he saw her even resorting to putting gum in her hair. She was no better, 'accidentally' dropping his snacks in the chocolate river.
"First all the sugar in this place is just a quicker route to a root canal and no I don't want to play in sugar" she said.
"Oh so you just can't board", was his quick reply. Their cousins snickered at the heated glare match before them. Besides them the Jojo brothers laughed as Brick glared in the direction of the little girl. This scene was all too familiar.
"I'm a ballerina you jerk, and I'm not allowed to do extra curricular activities during competition season". She smacked his hand away as he tugged on her bun.
"Ballerina huh, seems like you're scared. I get cha losing to me is pretty scary, I play rough".
"I'm not scared of anything least of all you" she exclaimed. In her anger she grabbed her board. "Patches top of the mountain now".
The robot gave no sarcasm as he quickly pressed the button off screen. The room began to move up slowly similar to an elevator. A loud ding was heard as each person shuffled out.
"Wow your mom really spent a lot for this party" Boomer exclaimed. Bliss started to reply only to be cut off by Bloom.
"Mountains got boobie traps, icecream balls, chocolate chip cliffs oh and nuts. Lots of nuts. Think you can handle that beanie boy" she sent a heated glare toward Blaze.
He gulped as he stared down. No one told him this mountain was so high up. Luckily he'd never let his nerves get the better of him. So instead of running back like he wanted he just sent Bloom a quick nod.
"I don't know why y'all bothering both of you gingers will be wiped out in no time". Brute exclaimed. She snubbed some frosting on her cheeks similar to a football players and lined up with the two competitive red heads.
"In your dreams girly" Bird said. His mouth was full of chocolate and ice cream but his words still pronounced every syllable perfectly.
Bandit said nothing as Bliss smiled at him and followed the others.
When everyone was lined up Patches voice began to count down.

And they were off cutting past gumdrop trees, sliding under bridges. As the boobie traps came the players left. First was Bandit unfortunately a chocolate chip clif got him. It propelled his whole body up in the air. Boomer worriedly looking after his son was next, with his head turned back he too fell at the hand of the dreaded chocolate chip clif.
Both were safely grabbed by a shoot and transferred to the bottom.
As Brick and Butch competed for the six place they surcum to the gum drop tree. Next was Bliss and Blaze. Bliss had sneezed and lost her route nearly crashing into a bridge. Blaze angled his body to far up which cause him to fall.
With most players out Bird took this chance to show off. He let his left hand trail across the freezing ice cream and tasted it.
Vanilla?
Perplexed he asked "Hey why is this called Strawberry mountain".
Both girls said nothing as they pointed to the giant strawberry coming toward Bird angled his body so he moved to the far left. Unfortunately for him this was Brutes route, she let out an angry scream as both boards collided with one another.
All that was left was Bloom. She gracefully slid past the strawberry and finished her route with a small flip toward the end.
The screen went black before the words "New High Score" and "Bloom Major" blinked rapidly. She smiled as Patches took her picture and displayed it on the screen.
Immediately after she was accompanied with a hug from Bliss and a punch from Brute.
"I knew you could do it".
"Better you than Bird brain over there"
Even Blaze congratulated her with a quick nod to the head only she saw.
"So who's score did ya beat" Butch asked casually. He expected it to be Buttercup,Boomer did too.
However Brick was not in the least surprise when she replied "My mom".
He smirked.
Blossom always was a ice queen.
Alright I wanted to update sooner but my schedule just didn't let me sorry for the wait. Note: Brute is in no relations to the power punk girls, I just really like the name.

Thank you so much for your lovely review, it makes me smile every time i look at it. I'm sorry the girls weren't in this chapter, but they will be in the next.

Alright I will try, most likely never longer than this length. I feel like a lot of word takes away from the story.
