Ch. 9

Miyako's p.o.v.

I let out a small yawn as I slowly sat up and rubbed my sleepy eyes. Outside had some light coming through but not that much that would indicate it to be confused as the sun. I looked over at the nightstand where the alarm clock is and the time said it was 9:00 in the morning. Not a bad time at all.

I tried to get out of bed but the grip on my waist wouldn't let go. I looked down and covered my mouth to refrain a giggle as I saw Boomer hugging my waist while snoring. He looks so adorable sleeping! He reminds me of a cute innocent child with no worries at all. I wanted to wake him so he could release me but I didn't want to disturb his sleep.

As gently and quietly as I could, I carefully removed his arms from my waist and gave him a pillow to hug instead. Luckily, it worked as he brought the pillow closer to him. I then got off the bed, picked up my clothes from the nightstand, and went inside the bathroom and quietly closed the door behind me as I changed out of the pajamas he gave me and into my own clothes.

After I quickly changed into my own clothes, rinsed my mouth with some mouth wash, and brushed my hair, I exited the bathroom but let out a small squeak as I quickly covered my eyes. Oh dear. I can't believe Boomer is already awake and he was changing. But not only that, I saw him in his underwear. Its so embarrassing!

"Sorry about that, Miyako! Just keep your eyes closed and I'll be done changing in no time!" I heard him exclaimed.

"G-Got it!" I answered and quickly turned around.

"Okay, I'm now done! You can turn around now!"

"H-Hai!"

I uncovered my eyes and turned back around and sighed in relief to see him fully clothed. That looks better but I still can't believe I saw Boomer in his underwear. Maybe I should've knocked first or take a peek to see if he was awake or not. At least I covered my eyes so I wouldn't see him changing.

"I'm really sorry that you had to see that," I looked over to see him sheepishly rubbing the back of his head. "I thought that you were gonna take a while in the bathroom so I thought I'll have plenty of time to change here. It looks like I was wrong."

"Its okay, really," I cleared my throat. "It was only an accident but we both know that we should knock and check so we'll know if its safe to enter or exit the room."

"You got that right," he said. "Since we're now changed, lets go eat breakfast."

"Okay," I replied.

We walked out of his bedroom and towards the kitchen and I noticed that we were the only ones awake. It looks like the others are still sleeping. Since Boomer and I are the first ones awake, we should start on making breakfast.

"Hey Miyako-chan, do you wanna help me make pancakes?" I heard Boomer say to me.

I turned my head and saw him getting some ingredients from the fridge. It looks like he thought of making breakfast like I did. "Sure! I'll help you make some pancakes!"

"Awesome! Lets start!"

We first started making the batter right after we had the pan heat up at a medium level heat. Then, we mixed the batter until we get the right color. We carefully used the spoon to pour some droplets of batter onto the pan until we make the circle big enough to sizzle. We waited and then used a spatula to flip it and did the same with the other side. We repeated the process until we finished the batter and managed to have a tall stack of pancakes on the plate.

I brought out the plates and placed them on the table near each chair for everybody. I also added some knives, forks, spoons, cups, and napkins as well. Boomer placed the right amount of stack on each plate and then put the dirty dishes in the sink. I brought out a huge bottle of orange juice, shook it, and then poured some in each glass.

I then placed the bottle back inside the fridge and cleaned the dishes as Boomer poured syrup on each stack and then placed the maple syrup bottle in the middle so people would know where it is. I finished cleaning the dishes and placed them in the dish rack so they would dry up. I dried my hands with a paper towel, threw it away in the trash bin, and checked to make sure we had everything set on the table.

"Want me to go wake my brothers while you wake your friends?" Boomer asked me.

"Sure!" I answered.

We first went to Brick's room where Momoko was staying at and we quietly went inside and I had to stop myself from letting out a small squeal escape from my lips. They were both on the bed sleeping with the covers covering their bodies and they were hugging each other. Momoko had her head resting against the crook of his neck and Brick's chin was tucked under her head as his arm was around her waist.

I quietly went over to her side while Boomer went to Brick's side. I gently shook her arm while Boomer shook his shoulder. After a few more shakes, they were starting to wake up.

"Wakey wakey, Momoko-chan. Its time for breakfast."

"Brick, get up. We made pancakes."

They opened their eyes and when they saw each other, they quickly backed away from each other as their faces were glowing red. We held their shoulders so they wouldn't fall off the bed. It looks like they're blushing when they realized that they cuddled with each other. How adorable.

"You two get ready. Breakfast is on the table," I said.

"So hurry up before the greens come and eat it all up," Boomer replied.

"G-Got it!" Brick nearly stuttered.

"R-Right!" Momoko stuttered with her face still red.

I let out a small giggle and left the room with Boomer as we closed the door behind us and let them change so they would come to the table to eat. We then went to Butch's room and went inside to see both Butch and Kaoru sleeping. Butch was hugging Kaoru while snoring and Kaoru had her head resting against his chest. Thats so cute! Does this mean Kaoru is starting to get along with Butch now?

We went over to either side and shook them awake. I shook Kaoru's arm and Boomer shook Butch's shoulder. After shaking them for about a minute, they stirred and started to wake up.

"What time is it?" Butch yawned.

"Something smells good from outside," Kaoru said in a groggy tone.

After they were fully awake, she noticed that she was close to him and nearly shrieked and quickly got out of the bed while backing up against the bathroom door. Her face was a bit pink and she had a shocked look on her face.

"Gross! I can't believe I slept on that bed with him!" she yelled out in disgust.

"The bed's better than the floor. Plus, you liked it when I hugged you," he smirked at her.

"Shut up, you hentai!"

"Now don't be shy, cupcake~"

"Never call me that!"

"Then should I call you butterfly?~"

"And that as well! I hate pet names!"

While they were busy arguing with each other, we quickly left the room since it'll take a while and went back to the kitchen where we saw Brick and Momoko sitting down at the table quietly eating their food with their faces a bit red. It looks like their blush is dying down a bit but at least they're changed and eating.

I sat down next to Momoko and ate my food while Boomer sat down next to Brick and ate his. As we ate, we heard the door loudly being slammed open and I turned my head to see Kaoru quickly running to the table and sat down and began eating her pancakes. Butch came out of the room with a calm look on his face and he went over to the table and sat down as well and ate. I wonder what happened in there?

Soon, we finished eating and I cleaned the dishes while Boomer dried them. I heard Momoko conversing with Kaoru about something but in a low whisper so the boys wouldn't hear them. From the corner of my eye, I saw Brick relaxing on the couch with Butch. I then finished cleaning the dishes and Boomer cleaned the last one.

I went over to the girls and gave them a smile. "Did you two slept well?"

"It would've been better if Butch hadn't hugged me," Kaoru gagged.

"I slept well but I was surprised that Brick and I were cuddling with each other," Momoko blushed.

I let out a small giggle at what they said. "My sleep wasn't too bad but Boomer did hugged my waist."

"Be glad that yours is innocent."

"He's a gentleman, Kaoru-san."

"Exactly."

"Are you girls done talking?"

We looked over and saw the boys leaning against the couch. Weren't Brick and Butch relaxing on the couch about a minute ago? I guess they're already relaxed and are now energized and ready to go.

"Yes, we're done talking," Momoko answered to them.

"Good. Because today, we're gonna go visit the church," Brick said. Wait a minute? We're going to the church?

Meiru's p.o.v.

We arrived at St. Gemina, the holy church of Arcane. Its appearance is like any other church but this one resembles more to be a castle and when its dark, it sparkles which makes us think that it was covered in diamonds even though it doesn't have any. I could see the guardian angel statue resting on top of the roof and gazing over everyone who enters inside.

We wore our decent clothes to show respect and we had to wait for the others to come since Brick planned for us to come here today. I think I have a feeling on why he wants us to come. Though I really hope its not what he's actually planning to do.

"Hey, thanks for coming!"

I looked over and saw that he managed to arrive along with the others. He had a small pouch thats tied around his waist and it looked a bit full. Looks like he brought some offerings for the church.

"How come we're visiting the church, Brick?" I heard Enzan ask him.

"We're gonna do a small prayer and then do a small ritual," Brick answered. Wait a minute. A ritual?

"Didn't we went through that ritual before?" I heard Airisu whisper to me.

"We did but it looks like theirs would be different," I whispered back.

He then went inside the church and we followed behind. The inside of the church is also beautiful and the mosaic glass on the walls were rainbow colored and had pictures of angels or the lord. A huge cross was hanging on the front of the church and a podium was there where a priest would read the words from the holy bible.

Then, Brick stopped and brought out a hand to indicate us to wait. He then went up a few steps, went over to the podium, picked up a bell resting on it, and rang it. Soon, a young woman dressed up as a nun came out from the room and went over to him. I couldn't tell what they were saying but the woman nodded to what he said and quickly left. Then, she came back with a bowl of holy water and 3 necklaces in which each charm looks like a dove, an angel, and a cross.

"Boomer. Butch. Bring the girls over here," he said.

"Right!" they answered and ushered the girls to step on the podium.

As they did that, the woman gave each of the boys a necklace: Brick had the dove, Boomer had the angel, and Butch had the cross. They looked over the necklace to make sure everything was good and then went over to the girls. Brick put the dove necklace around Momoko's neck, Boomer put the angel necklace around Miyako's neck, and Butch put the cross necklace around Kaoru's neck.

"Um, whats with the necklaces?" Momoko asked them.

"You'll figure out real soon," Brick answered her. "Sister Mimiko, please proceed."

"Yes, Brick-san," the woman called Sister Mimiko said in a polite tone and walked over to the girls while still holding the bowl.

Boomer then gave her a small wash cloth and she gave him a small nod and took it. She then dipped it in the bowl a bit and pressed the wet cloth against Momoko's cheeks, forehead, and on her necklace. She did the same thing with Miyako and Kaoru and then put the bowl and cloth on the podium.

She then went over to the shrine of the huge cross, got on her knees, and said a prayer. After her prayer was done, the light from the cross started to glow and 3 beams of light came and hit the girls. Wait a minute, now I remembered the type of ritual they had. This shows whether they are pure or not and it also shows the real them. The same thing happened to us and they saw our alter egos. This isn't good at all. They'll know who the girls are and it'll be a catastrophe.

I tried to move but I couldn't. I looked down and saw that Netto had his grip on my waist and is preventing me from moving. This isn't good at all. The boys are preventing us from stopping the ritual. We have to warn them.

"Girls, get out of the light now! It'll show you- Misora couldn't finish because Subaru covered her mouth. I felt Netto's hand resting on my mouth to prevent me from speaking and Enzan did the same to Airisu. This can't be. We're too late!

Soon, the light engulfed the girls and they started to glow. It nearly blinded us but it then went away as it showed the girls' real forms. Their aura was glowing white and their transformation outfits were still the same from when they were 13. Their belts reappeared around their waists and their compacts glowed from the light.

"T-They're…" Boomer gasped in shock.

"I-It can't be!" Butch trembled in anger.

"My hunch was right all along," Brick frowned. "Momoko, Miyako, and Kaoru are actually the PowerPuff Girls Z, our sworn enemies from long ago."
