Chapter 11

Bubbles and Buttercup were flying back home carrying a completely knocked out Blossom. The battle against Angst was probably the toughest fight they had ever been in. They all played a role in defeating that watery being. Buttercup had destroyed the body that held in Angst's true form. Blossom had found the weakness, and if it weren't for Bubbles, they would've never defeated it.

They soon made it home, but before they came in to land they heard someone calling them over.

"Hey! Over here!" Mojo Jojo whispered, motioning to them quietly, who was near a bush as if he were hiding from something or someone.

Without a second thought, Buttercup and Bubbles changed direction and instantly went to the bush. They now got a closer look at the new state of Mojo Jojo. He was no longer using a wheelchair to get around, but was able to walk perfectly as if his legs were never injured. The eye that was black had now been fully healed. He still had the patch over the other eye and his arm was still dislocated, but it was highly clear that the special medicine he was given earlier was doing its job.

"What's up, Mojo?" Buttercup asked.

"Look over there!" Mojo Jojo said, pointing to the door of their house. In front of the house, several members of the SWAT Team of the Townsville police were there and armed with powerful guns that were probably filled with duranium bullets.

Buttercup slapped herself in the face. "Oh great! They're obviously waiting for us!"

"Well, DUH!" Mojo Jojo said simply. "You're obviously seen as a threat to Townsville now. It's very simple really. I mean, the Shadow Puff Girls were disguised as you and they did kill the Mayor, which I must say is a brand new low for any villain. I definitely wouldn't go so low as to kill innocent lives just to destroy three simple little girls like you and…" He was cut short of his long rambling thanks to Buttercup grabbing him by his throat.

"Mojo! If you keep talking like that while you're teamed up with us, I swear, I'll rip out your voice box to ensure you don't talk again!" She threatened. "Just get to the point!" She then released her grip on Mojo Jojo and allowed him to speak again.

"Fine! Anyways, you can't go back in! Due to the fact that they think you have killed the mayor, they are ordered to shoot you the moment they see you. No questions asked. Let's just say the killing of the mayor gave you girls the death penalty."

"But where's the Professor?" Bubbles asked.

"He's been taken away by the authorities."

"The author-what?" Bubbles interrupted. Obviously, she hadn't ever heard such a word in her life.

Mojo Jojo slapped himself in the face. "The police!" He said, feeling rather irritated.

"Oh!"

"Do they have duranium bullets?" Buttercup asked, hoping they didn't, knowing the complete danger she'd put herself in if they did.

"Yes." He said simply.

Buttercup slammed her foot into the ground hard leaving a rather large dent in it. "Great! We can't get the Professor's stuff to help Blossom without nearly killing ourselves!"

"Anyways, they're trying to get whatever evidence they can from him. They have also taken him in because they believe he is the reason you have turned evil. We have to get out of here and find someplace safe."

"This is bad!" Buttercup said, realizing what's going on. "I remember us being mistaken before. Like not long after we were created and nearly destroying all of Townsville. Even that one time when we were mistaken for a bank robbery that was done by three crooks that disguised themselves as us. Now this is worse."

"Indeed. With all the evidence they have, I doubt they'll believe a word you say."

"Well, we just have to find some place that's safe." Bubbles said. "But who would believe us?"

"Like I said, I don't think anyone will believe you." Mojo then decided to change the subject. "Anyways, what happened to Blossom?" He said, looking over at the unconscious red head that still had many wounds on her.

"It's a long story." Buttercup answered. "We'll fill you in, but right now, Blossom needs serious medical attention."

"Well, no doctor is going to give it to her considering everything. They'd rather let her die."

"What?" Bubbles asked in a tone that displayed shock and worry.

"Hey! I'm sorry to say that, but it's true! When you're a bloodthirsty murderer on the run they just don't want to help you. If they had the chance, they'd let her die and so that the world wouldn't have to suffer at the hands of such a killer! I'm sorry, okay? But that's the truth!"

"Do you know anywhere we can go?" Buttercup asked as she picked up Blossom and slung her over her shoulder as if she was a sack of potatoes.

"My volcano top laboratory is probably the best bet. It's still a bit of a mess thanks to you three meddling girls!"

"Well, that's what you get for copying our powers and using them against us!" She then turned towards the direction of Mojo's lair. "Oh, and if you try that again, trust me, I'll rip your heart out!" She threatened. After that, Buttercup took off carrying a still unconscious Blossom.

After she took off, Mojo turned to Bubbles. "I'd like to speak with you alone while you're carrying me back to my home." He said in a tone that was low enough for Buttercup not to hear even with her super-hearing ability, if that was even possible.

Meanwhile…

Back in the lair of Him, Him was punishing Archfiend and Apollyon. The powerful crimson red beam soared through the air from the devil's claw like appendage. The attack engulfed the two remaining Shadow Puff Girls and caused them extreme pain. It was doing nothing more than that. It wasn't damaging them. It was only causing them pain. He soon stopped his attack and the Shadow Puff duo bowed to him in a sign of mercy.

"Master, forgive us for our incompetent failure." Apollyon begged.

"You nearly destroyed them before I wanted them to be!" Him said as he turned his back towards them, not wanting to look at his creations, at least for the rest of the day.

Apollyon and Archfiend were confused. "Master, I don't understand. Wouldn't you like it if they were immediately wiped off the face of the earth?" Archfiend asked.

"Indeed, I would appreciate it if they were destroyed right now, but the problem is that they have caused me so much humiliation that death isn't enough for those three little 'power punks!'" He then finally faced them. "Death isn't enough to satisfy me!" He shouted with great anger. "I want those little Powerpuff girls to suffer for everything they've put me through!" He turned around again, anger increasing to an immeasurable scale. "I want the world to believe they should've never existed! As if they should be destroyed! Only then can I be satisfied with killing them!" He finally breathed out very audible sighs. It felt so good to get so much off his chest. He was still quite angry though.

"So you want them to suffer, Master?" Apollyon asked.

"Yes, only then will I enjoy their death." Him just hung his head low to the ground and didn't even look at them. "Now leave, I wish to be alone, and with what I have planned for next, you're going to need your strength."

Apollyon and Archfiend rose from their bowing position. "Yes, Master." Apollyon said giving a final bow of respect. They then left the room.

Meanwhile,

The Powerpuff Girls were flying back to Mojo's lair. They soon arrived, and entered the lab through a window that was still broken. In short liberal speaking, the place was a mess. Bits and scraps of the last machine Mojo used on the Powerpuff Girls were everywhere. The computers were fried far beyond repair. A demolished door and broken windows were also present in the room. It was basically a disgrace now for an evil secret lair.

Buttercup put Blossom into Bubbles' care. She was about to start a conversation with Mojo when suddenly they heard a repeated performance of a certain sound that wasn't good to hear. They looked around and found themselves surrounded in a semi-circle by cops that were armed with guns. The cops were obviously waiting for them. Probably concluded that Mojo was behind this in some way.

Buttercup was about to give them all a good pounding, but Mojo stopped her. "Wait! Take a good look at the bullets of those machine guns." He advised.

Buttercup did as advised and what she discovered made her more than a little upset. "Oh great! Bullets made of duranium!" She cursed to herself silently.

"I would advise getting out of here quickly, before they shoot us, because if they do-"

Buttercup quickly grabbed him by the throat purposefully and zoomed out of there. Bubbles followed her just as quickly.

"Fire!" The chief of police shouted.

The men obeyed and started shooting bullets at them. They were able to dodge the bullets easy and made a quick getaway in an alley. After they got away, they had to rest.

"What are we going to do?" Bubbles asked in a panic. "If we don't find someone to help us, Blossom's not gonna make it!"

Buttercup finally let go of the monkey she was holding by the throat, allowing him to breathe. "I don't know what we can do, Bubbles."

"I think I can help you!" A familiar voice said to them. They turned towards the darkness of the alley to find a shadowy figure walking towards them. Not trusting anyone at this point, Buttercup got into a readying position.

"Don't worry, girls. I can help you. I know you're innocent."
