The Rowdyruff girl
Chapter 11: Buttercup vs The Professor
Previously
Professor Utonium couldn't believe it...He didn't want to believe it...He closed his eyes for a few seconds, hoping that what he had just seen was just a bad dream and that when he opened them, the world would be right.
No such luck!
He walked over to the craters that had the unmoving forms of his little Bubbles and his little Blossom...caused by his little Buttercup who is still confused and trapped within the world of those rotten Rowdyruff boys and their lies...
"Girls?..."Professor said in a shaky voice but no response.
The scientist pulled out the two, unmoving little girls and held them close to them, as he weep over them and over the fact that his little Buttercup is still lost, in more ways than one now.
'This is all my fault...I'm so sorry, girls...'He let out before he continued his cries.
Present time
The Mayor and Ms. Bellum, having witness the entire battle from a nearby alley, had walked toward the grieving Professor who is still clutching Blossom and Bubbles in his arms and they soon started crying as well.
They just couldn't understand why this happened! Blossom and Bubbles taken down...and by their own sister no less?!
"Blossom...Bubbles...don't leave me!..."The professor said as he continued to cry.
"No! Say it isn't so, Ms. Bellum..."The mayor cried as well.
"I wish I could..."The red haired woman said before she, too, continued to cry as well over what just happened.
Did Bubbles and Blossom really just-
"Mmm... Professor..."They suddenly heard and saw Bubbles and Blossom groaning and moving a little as they regained consciousness.
The Professor gasped in relief when he heard their little voices. They are battered, beaten up and greatly injured and weak but they are ALIVE!
"Blossom...Bubbles...Oh thank goodness. ..I was so afraid that I lost you two..."The professor said as he held them tighter.
"Where. ..Buttercup?..."Bubbles let out in a very weak voice.
"Shush...don't talk...just rest honey..."Professor Utonium said in a gentle voice as he laid his blonde and red haired daughters down and immediately took something from his suits pocket. He opened it to reveal a syringe and a small, vial that had a mysterious black liquid inside of it.
"What's that?..."Ms. Bellum asked.
"A vial with emergency chemical X , I always carry it with me in case something happens to the girls...it's design to help their healing factors..."The professor explained as he injected his two daughters.
Once he was done, he handed the two to still weak girls to Ms. Bellum.
"The effects will take a while to kick in, so please keep an eye of them...I'm going after Buttercup..."The Professor said, surprise the other two adults.
"Professor, no! It's all of the Rowdyruff boys, even with your suit...you won't stand a chance..."Ms. Bellum warned but the Professor isn't budging.
"I have to do it...my daughter needs me...I need to save her from those boys and from herself..." The professor said in a serious voice before he flew off, before the Mayor and Ms. Bellum could say anything else.
"Oh my! What are we going to do, ?..."The mayor asked his secretary.
For once Ms. Bellum didn't have a response. She saw the look on the Professors face. It wasn't the look of a man who is trying to stop a group of criminals, it was the look of a father who will stop at nothing to save his child and not caring of what danger he will have to face. After a moment, the woman finally found her voice.
"Right now, we look after the girls..." Was all the red haired woman said to her aging boss.
With the Rowdyruff boys
And Buttercup
The trio of boys, plus Buttercup were thrilled over their victory and while they tried to search for a nearby Pizza truck or place to hijack, Buttercup, having been excited over her "first" victory, wanted to do something to commemorate and Butch indulged her whim since he ordered them to land. Butch, using an old camera he stole from Mojo's home, quickly took a picture of all four of them together, all laughing and making funny faces at the camera.
"That one is a keeper..."Butch said as he waited for the snap shot to form.
"Yeah, let it be on this day that we, the Rowdyruff boys, with the help of Buttercup, finally took down those sissies for good!...'Brick said, sounding positively elated.
All four o them then took a can of soda, their favorite flavors and Brick decided to give some grand old speech.
"And let me be the first to congratulate Buttercup, the baddest girl in all of Townsville for her most kick butt performance ever...'Brick said graciously to the girl.
"While I had my doubts, you really proved yourself to be hardcore out there today...'He admitted.
"Thanks Brick..."Buttercup said with a smile.
"He's right babe, you were just...amazing today..."Butch admitted to the girl, who smiled at his praise.
"Yeah, you totally kicked those sissies behinds...You were like "pow" "kick" and they were all like, "Oh no, don't hit us, owie!"...It was totally awesome!...'Boomer said in a positively elated way.
"Thanks but it was a group effort...we are the Rowdyruff's and we managed to defeat those stupid, wimpy powderpuff girls and soon, the whole world will no just how bad we are!..."Buttercup said, causing the boys, even Brick to cheer loudly.
"YES!..."They all high fived before they started laughing in excitement.
Butch, during this time, kept seeing glances at Buttercup, still unable to believe that a few days ago they were enemies and she was a loser powerpuff girls but now she is a hardcore bad girl and their...friend.
It's so weird. ...but a cool kind of weird actually...
"Come on fellas, this pizzas aren't going to steal themselves..."Buttercup said to the boys.
Before they could fly, they saw the Professor, still in his suit, heading for that direction.
"What the?!..."Brick said in surprise and anger.
"I don't believe it...how is he still walking? !..."Buttercup growled in annoyance before she shot at the air.
"I'll handle this guy, dudes...you guys go get the pizza, and make sure to steal mine as pepperoni with extra cheese..."Buttercup ordered before she flew off in the direction of the Professor.
Brick blinked and then frowned. While he knows he has to accept her in the group now, and while he is impressed with her toughness, he still didn't like to be ordered around and by a girl no less. He also didn't care for being left out of a potential butt kicking, no matter how weak the opponent is.
Butch on the other hand...
" Come on guys, I think I'm picking up a pizza truck a few miles east from here..."Butch said before he zoomed in that direction.
"Wait for us Butch..."Boomer said before he followed them.
Brick stood there shaking his head, unable to believe it but sighed and found himself going after his stupid brothers before they did something stupid...again.
With Buttercup
Buttercup continued to fly until she was once again face to face with the Professor. The two had a brief stare off, with furious, malicious green eyes against determined blue ones until the girl spoke again.
"I see your back for another hiney whooping..."Buttercup said in a contemptuous way.
The Professors expression didn't even change, he still looked at her the same way he did earlier, only with a determined gleam in his eyes.
"I came back because I refuse to leave without my daughter. .."He said in a serious way.
Buttercup rolled her eyes. Did he still think she was going to buy that crock?! She doesn't have a father or a family, all she has is the Rowdyruff boys, Brick said so.
"You still on that? I already told you that I'm not buying it..."Buttercup said in a scornful way.
"You don't have to buy it..because you already have it...please Buttercup, just come home with me and I'll show you the truth...that I really am your father. ..."The Professor pleaded, hoping any bit of his Buttercup is still in the girl, willing to listen to him.
To his dismay, the expression on her face didn't change and she still had a look of distrust in her eyes. The kind of distrust you give to an enemy or a stranger. What's worst is that to her, the Professor is pretty much both right now. ..
"You are NOT my father, I don't believe you. ..Now come on, talk is cheap...let's do this..."Buttercup said impatiently.
"I am NOT your enemy Buttercup... I didn't come here to fight you..."The Professor said seriously.
No matter what the circumstances are, he couldn't find it in it to actually try and fight against his own little girl...he just wants to save her before she did something really bad...
"If you don't want to fight, too bad...since I DO!..."Buttercup roared as she soon shot at him.
Professor Utonium used all of his energy to dodge and block her attacks, being on the defensive. Buttercup just kept attacking him and he just tried to avoid getting hit, while he still tried to reason with her.
"Buttercup...Honey, please...I know you are there somewhere...please...you are NOT a bad child, you're a good one...you're my good little girl like your sisters...please...just believe me..."Professor said as he continued to avoid being beaten by his own child and trying to get her to come to her senses.
But she still didn't believe him and thus, she continued with her attack, determined to take him down one way or the other. Professor Utonium was grateful that his suit gave him the speed and agility he needs to dodge her but he knows that it's not design to survive the kind of attack she would unleash if she managed to land a hit on him...
Because he never expected a situation where he would have to fight against any of his girls for his own life...
Unknown to the Professor and Buttercup, all of the moving around and dodging is making the Professors wallet, which he still had on his suit, to move around as well which each dodge. Not that either noticed, since they were too focused on this tussel!
Buttercup however is growing impatient, since her opponent hasn't even raised his hand even once during the whole thing and it's annoying her to no end!
"Quit squirming around and just fight me!..."Buttercup shouted, her anger and impatience being visible.
However, to her irritation, the guy didn't attack and kept looking at her in that way, the kind that confused her to no end. And a confused Buttercup leads to an angry Buttercup, that's what she has been learning lately.
"I already told you Buttercup, I am not here to fight you...I want to help you..."The Professor said in a gentle way.
One that only irritated the now peeved off girl and she just reacted.
"Help yourself to THIS!..."Buttercup shouted as she finally managed to land a hit on her opponent, the force of which not only sent him flying high up, but also damaged the jet boots he had which gave him his ability to fly.
It also made his wallet finally fall off of him, landing on the roof of a nearby sky scrapper.
"AH!..." The Professor screamed when his boots stopped working...and when he saw reminded of a thing called gravity.
"Oh no..."He muttered, not liking where this is going.
He fell down to the earth, screaming loudly.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! ..." He screamed as he found himself falling from 50,000 feet in the air.
Buttercup wiped her hands off of dress and was about to find a spot to watch the show, only to finally see the wallet on the ground. Curiosity getting the better of her, she went to pick it up.
"What the heck is this?..."Buttercup said as she picked the object up and opened it.
She saw a lot of money and cards inside of it, but she also noticed a picture that was inside it to. She would have dismissed it until she got a good look at it.
"Huh?..."Buttercup said as she got a closer look at the picture.
It was a picture with those two weak powerpuff girls whom she took down with the guys, and a guy in a white lab coat whom she knows now must have been her opponent when he wasn't wearing his stupid costume...but there are three little girls in this photo, not two...
And one of them has short black hair, big, bright green eyes and she is wearing a green dressed that actually looked a lot like the ones the other two girls are wearing...and this girl...she...
"Is this...me?!..."Buttercup muttered in shock and she soon felt a sharp pain in her head as if she was suffering from a super migraine of sorts.
She gripped her head in agony, feeling as if it was about to split open...and during this pain...she was experiencing something...
Her memories...
She suddenly found herself in what looked to be a laboratory, next to the same girls she fought before and the guy in the picture was staring at her, with his jaw hanging low.
She thought he looked funny. ...and she couldn't explain it, she didn't know who he is but she felt that she could trust him.
He started talking but she couldn't remember the words, all she could remember is that he seems really happy to be around them...and she recalled that she was happy to be near him too, as were the other girls...
She didn't know why but she knew that she liked him...and she liked the other two girls too...
More memories came back...of that man...of those two girls and of other people too. Memories of her fighting involved those girls, but she is fighting with them, not against them, and they were fighting against a bunch of people...mean looking people too.
She then remembered that the two girls are not her enemies. ..and they are not just friends either...they are her...her SISTERS!
Sisters. ..which means she has a family!
Their names are Blossom and Bubbles, they are her sisters and they love her...and she is remembering that she loves them too.
They are not the only ones in her family...there is someone else too...Someone who has a big part in her life...
It's the man in the picture, the one from the lab...she knows who he is now!
The man...he is the Professor...he made them in his lab...he is the one who created her and the other two girls...He is the reason that she exists...he loves her...
"Professor?..."Buttercup muttered in shock as her memories continued to resurface until she finally remembered who she is...
Her name is Buttercup Utonium...she was made in a laboratory, she has super powers...she lives with her sister's Blossom and Bubbles and their creator, a man called Professor Utonium...She is not a BAD girl, because she uses her powers to help her sisters save people...
She is a GOOD guy!
Once the memories stop, so did the pain but the poor girl let out a gasp in shock, as reality finally came down...the man she just thought...he was telling the truth!
He really IS her-
"AH!..." Buttercup whipped around when she realized that he is still falling and he is getting closer and closer to the ground.
"PROFESSOR!..." Buttercup shouted in horror.
In a fraction of a nanosecond she found herself flying as fast as she possibly could and them some, her arms outreach in order to catch the man before he fell to his untimely, undeserving death. Thankfully luck was on her side, and managed to catch the man before he hit the ground and he didn't look to damaged, just shocked and stunned.
She gently placed him on the ground and the man looked surprised...
"Buttercup?..."He said in a low whisper, as if he couldn't believe it.
"Professor..."The little girl said in the same kind of voice.
The Professors stunned face soon turned into an ecstatic one and the little girl could almost see tears forming in his blue eyes. Before she realized it, he pulled her closer to him...
"Buttercup..."He said, sounding so happy as he held her close.
He is hugging her...
And she does NOT dislike it...
-To be continued-
Next time on The Rowdyruff girl
Buttercup's back!
