Chapter 10: New Heroes In The City, So Look Out Power Puff Girls Z!
Blossom's POV:
I didn't know what happened, however when I woke up I was in a bed with lights flashing everywhere. I had all kinds of monitors around me and I frowned.
"Jamie? Good, you're awake. How do you feel?" The Professor asked and I realised I was back at the lab.
I groaned and felt my head, "Agony, what happened?" I questioned and my head was pounding as my body ached.
"You were fighting the Gangreen gang and then the Rowdy Ruff Boys fought you. We found you three out cold on the road, the Rowdy Ruff Boys have been on the news all day and they're officially heroes now," Ken informed me and I was too sore to do anything other than dread the truth.
"Butch… they're stronger, they're all more powerful…" I murmured and groaned again as the room got too humid. "Butch got angry, green light shot out of his eyes and hands. It hit us all…. It had hurt and then… it all went black…"
"You're perfectly fine except for your nerves; Butch's power seemed to affect the nerves. You have no injuries; the other girls are in the same state." The Professor smiled, "You need rest."
I nodded and groaned once again as they left.
I lay there for a whole day, I watched some television until I realised every channel was talking about the new superheroes. They all loved the Rowdy Ruff Boys and I couldn't stand it, and so I turned it off.
After that I thought and thought. Why had Brick warned me? Why had he come to me when I was Jamie? Why had he helped me when she was pulling on my hair? Why had he helped me before? How were they so strong?
There were too many questions.
The day after, at the very end of the day I was allowed to get up and I couldn't stay in that room any longer. Thankfully it was a weekend; however it also meant we missed one of Kate's most important soccer games.
I met them outside lying around in the grass as the sun just went bellow the trees and I lay down next to them. "Are you as sore as I am?" I asked and they nodded with pained looks on their faces.
Kate growled to herself. "I'm going to boil Butch alive, I missed the semi-finals," she was furious even if her voice was level.
"How'd he get that power?" Izzy inquired and she had her eyes closed.
I shrugged. "Who knows… but… we'll have to find out now, clearly something big happened while they were hiding," I mumbled.
"Duh, I'll kill Butch."
The day after that, we were still a little sore. However we had to go, our belts were flashing and we didn't trust the new super heroes.
We arrived on the scene to see the Amoeba boys and I guessed you had to start somewhere, we were still recovering.
Buttercup grabbed her hammer and then rested it on her shoulders as if there were buckets on each end like you saw in the movies. She smirked down at them, "I missed you guys."
I bent down so I was close to eye level with them, "What are you up to?" I questioned since really they were no threat, far from it.
"We're vandalizing public property!" Their blue leader announced.
We looked around. "And how's that going for you?" I asked since there was nothing broken, but they did have little kiddie bats.
"We destroyed it!" He pointed and it was a flyer that was crumped, ripped and shredded.
"Uhhh… a piece of paper?" I mumbled and they all nodded. I sighed, "Well, I guess that counts as littering… but it's not vandalizing, really…"
Bubbles shrugged, "What should we do?"
"Put them away for life!" Buttercup voted and I rolled my eyes.
I turned to them, "What do you want?" We had asked them a lot since they wanted to be evil.
"We want to battle you! We are going to destroy the Power Puff Girls Z!" The pink one roared and I shrugged.
I straightened, "Well… they want it, they asked for it…" the Amoeba Boys were confusing and so we normally just went along with it.
Buttercup sighed, "You get the first miss," she said.
They cheered and then turned all serious as they glared at us. "PREPARE POWER PUFFS; WE'RE GOING TO DESTORY YOU!" They shouted and Bubbles giggled at them.
"They're so cute," she poked one with the end of her bubble wand.
"CUTE? WE ARE NOT CUTE! WE ARE EVIL AND TERRIFYING!"
"We know, you're ferocious… like a kitten." Buttercup rolled her eyes, "I think I might faint…" they beamed excitedly and whispered to each other. "From the heat of the sun at the moment," their hopes were crushed and they glared.
"YOU WILL SEE!"
"See what?" Bubbles asked innocently and they screamed furiously. "I don't see anything."
"But we hear something," I mumbled as they screamed as loud as they could.
"That's not a scream, this is a scream." Me and Buttercup had only just manage to cover our ears before Bubbles screeched with all her Z power. The ground shook, glass shattered, people fell to the ground and I realised Butch's flute was nothing compared to Bubbles' scream.
"Bubbles, please don't do that again," I pleaded and she nodded as the Amoeba Boys were swaying around because they were dizzy.
When they recovered they glared again and the blue one lifted his bat. "It's pathetic, it's tiny," Buttercup laughed.
I cried out after the blue one slammed it onto my little toe, "OUCH!" I scolded and this time when he tried to crush my toe I stepped aside. "That actually hurt."
The other two began to smash at our toes; however they were too slow and weak. I sighed and snatched a bat out of the blue one's… well, he didn't have hands.
"Now they committed assault," I grumbled and Buttercup raised her hammer. "Buttercup, that isn't needed and they didn't do anything to deserve that."
"NO! YOU WILL FIGHT US JUST LIKE YOU FIGHT OTHER VILLAINS! WE ARE THE BEST VILLAINS, SO YOU CAN GIVE US ALL YOU'VE GOT, SILLY POWER PUFFS!"
"They asked for it," Buttercup smirked as she brought it down on the pink one and she turned into a pink puddle.
"Buttercup! You killed her!" Bubbles shrieked and I gaped, we had never gone hard on them before.
Buttercup gaped too and got all flustered, "How was I meant to know she'd turn into a fucking piss puddle?" She demanded and I glared at her. "Oh, don't you dare say it. I'm sick of that, 'Buttercup, language' thing!"
"I wouldn't say it if you listened," I retorted and then the puddle turned into a blob again. "Oh, no, she's okay, she's alive."
Buttercup stared at the blobs, "Oh, that is cool." She began to chuckle evilly and it even creeped me out. She lifted the hammer and smashed them all in the one blow. They turned to liquid before reforming into blobs.
"Hey, are you three finished yet?" I questioned and they shook their heads-
Boomer landed just in front of us and began to crush the blobs into puddles with his bat as he giggled. "PISS OFF!" Buttercup snarled, "THIS IS MY FUN, YOU LITTLE SNEAKY SHIT-"
"Buttercup!"
Boomer ignored her, so she swung the hammer properly without holding back and went to slam it into his face. Bubbles covered her eyes as she squealed and I looked away as I winced for him waiting for the tell-tale thump that meant she hit her target.
But it never came, instead there was a whoa and then a smack as if someone landed on the concrete. I turned to see Buttercup on her ass on the pavement, she had done a one-eighty and she groaned.
"Your shoulders are still sore, aren't they?" That made her growl and she quickly got back to her feet. She span around and swung the hammer again, this time she aimed lower so when Boomer ducked she still hit him, only in the chest thankfully. I still winced though.
Buttercup's arms shook as the blow made contact and her teeth rattled before she tumbled onto her ass. She screamed in frustration like some little child.
"I told you, you weren't fine," I mumbled and she glared daggers at me. "Well, I did!"
"Where's the other boys?" Bubbles questioned and my eyes darted around, they weren't here.
Boomer scratched his head. "They got angry and started fighting themselves. See, that's them," we looked over the building and saw a cloud of dust blow into the air that was bigger than the sky towers. What kind of damage were they causing? "Looks like they've finished now."
Buttercup swung the hammer again and this time Boomer jumped over it. Buttercup was spinning and so the hammer came around so we had to duck, and then back as Boomer's feet touched the ground. He got it in the gut and was thrown into the little pond.
Buttercup chased after him since his brother wasn't here and she seemed to have forgotten about the pain in her fury.
I watched with Bubbles as the Amoeba Boys began to yell at us and I wondered if we should help… oh, Boomer didn't need help. So, Butch wasn't the only one with new powers, what other trick have they got up their sleeves?
I frowned and my eyebrows crossed as I saw Boomer cause electricity as powerful as the natural lightening go into his bat from his will. He sent it at Buttercup and she was on the ground the next seconds having fits as who knew how many volts ran through her body.
"Buttercup!" Bubbles shrieked and I grabbed her before she could touch Buttercup.
"You touch her and you'll be the same," I didn't want to just stand there watching Buttercup be electrocuted, but what choice did we have? "Boomer, stop it. That's enough, she's down."
"But she kept trying to hit me!" He argued and I snarled at him. Must have been something in my eyes because he absorbed the electricity and then grumbled to himself as Buttercup sat up.
She shook her head and Bubbles giggled at her hair, it was up sticking up at all ends. "Awww… looks like I missed out on the best part," Butch whined from behind us and my head whipped around.
Brick and Butch had arrived, Brick's eyes checked me over and I turned away. This time though when I saw Buttercup's face I couldn't do anything other than laugh. Her hair was like the Professor's when something exploded, her eyes were all wide and she had a dazed expression on her face.
I covered my mouth to stifle it though and Bubbles did the same, "I'm sorry, but you look ridiculous."
Buttercup growled, "Thanks for your help."
"You're welcome," Bubbles responded delightedly.
Giggles forced their way out of my throat again and I took a deep breath as I tried to calm myself. "I-I'm sorry, I can't help it," I giggled some more. When I had calmed I turned to Bubbles and crossed my arms over my chest, "She was being sarcastic, Bubbles." I then turned back to Buttercup, "You're the one who lost her temper all because Boomer stole your fun. Three year old. Anyway, where you sore? Everywhere?" I raised an eyebrow.
Buttercup got to her feet wincing to prove me wrong, "I'm perfectly fine, see?"
I nodded, "Oh, yeah. The way your legs are shaking spells unharmed," I grumbled and rolled my eyes as she snarled at me. "Don't do that, you got yourself into that mess. At least I can admit I'm not perfectly fine, what about you, Bubbles?"
She nodded, "I'm still sore and my head hurts," She confessed.
"See?"
"You two are different, you two are weak links," She told us and I huffed.
"That's nice, insult us for being honest."
"How sore exactly are you three, I want to know how powerful I am now?" Butch put an arm around me and an arm around Bubbles.
"Get your hands-YOU PIG!" He groped my breast and so I elbowed his gut before turning and punching his chest. My eyes flickered to Bubbles; she was pink in the face and in shock. He had done the same to her and I was only angry.
I flung my yo-yo at him, it wrapped around his ankle and then I threw him as far as I could, which was a long way. He wouldn't be back for a while.
"Let's go before that bastard comes back," I spat.
"Language, Blossom," Buttercup mocked and I rolled my eyes. I bent down and picked one of the Amoeba Boys up, they were still screaming and kicking.
"Eeew…" I held the squirming blob with disgust and then I began to fly.
"Hey, Brick, you said we have to make sure we save the day, not them," Boomer mumbled and he frowned at Brick.
My eyes flickered to him, he was watching me oddly and my eyes darted away from his. He chewed his lip, licked them and then nodded numbly. What was with him? "Yeah, I said that. Follow the plan, Boomer."
"What plan?" Bubbles asked.
"Like they'd tell us, that's the whole point, Bubbl-" I began before I was tackled out of the sky and I crashed into the concrete on top of the Amoeba Boy.
The weight on me was familiar and I wouldn't be trapped under Butch for a second time. I spotted his hand and slammed my fist into his fingers even though my arms were sore.
Butch howled and then suddenly he was thrown off of me. I jumped to my feet and turned to see Buttercup, "Thanks." My eyes went to the blob, it was a puddle again and whimpering.
Bubbles bent down and got on her knees. "Awww, poor Amoeba-" the puddle bubbled and gurgled. Bubbles jumped to her feet squealing in disgust, "NEVER MIND!"
I looked at my shirt and squealed, "I'VE GOT THAT FREAKING THING ON ME!" I quickly brushed it all off me and wrinkled my nose.
Buttercup kicked Butch in the face and he snarled at her. "SERVES YOU RIGHT!" She snapped.
"Why am I the only one following the plan?" Butch demanded and I wondered what the plan was.
A flash of blue and I only just ducked in time to avoid a bat in the face. There was a flash of red and Buttercup was tackled by Brick. Why did he go for her, he normally focused on me?
Bubbles squealed again as Boomer moved onto her and then Butch pulled out his flute as he faced me. I only glimpsed out of the corner of my eye before the real battle began, Buttercup was pinned with a sword to her throat and Brick was staring at me with -what I'd say if I didn't know him- worry, but that was absurd.
We were beaten to a pulp and the Rowdy Ruff Boys left us limping away with the Amoeba Boys. It was as if they had found new strength somehow, but all I could see were new costumes.
The Rowdy Ruff Boys were officially a problem and on the top of our list.
