Author's Note: Well, this is it! Last chappie *sniffle*

I got my 5,000 view today! Thanks, you beautiful readers and reviewers.

I had a really hard time writing the action sequence and I'll admit, it's not my best work, but I do hope it's good enough for you. Enjoy!

...

HIM and Mojo quickly regained their composure, as if the appearance of the mighty superheroines was just a minor throwback in the grand scheme of things.

"Is that... Princess Morbucks?" Rose raised an eyebrow, narrowing her pink eyes at the unconscious woman sprawled underneath the lamp.

"Yes it is," Mojo replied rather quickly. He didn't seem too upset about his business partner getting knocked out, oddly enough.

"You were in league with Princess?" Red scoffed.

"Don't judge," HIM reprimanded him. "We were desperate."

"Yeah, we could tell," Green glowered as he fired up a ball of emerald energy in each hand.

"Now, there's two ways we can do this," Red crossed his arms as he studied his supposed parents. "And since we've got a history, we're letting you decide how you want to end this."

"Oh, that's cute," HIM cooed. "You think you can beat us. How adorable!" he gushed.

"It's six superhumans to two. Do the math," Jade growled. "You don't stand a chance."

"Except you six are forgetting the fact that in addition to being tremendously powerful, we have knowledge of your weaknesses. We, as parents, possess great personal ability and know what will bring each of you three, as children, down and as scientists, are now aware of how to stop you Powerpuff Girls. It seems a little unwise to threaten the people, we the parents and scientists, who know every single one of your personal failings and can use them to destroy you," Mojo threatened, rather smug with himself.

"Exactly," Blue finally spoke up, his voice vehement. "That's exactly what I was thinking... How could our parents -the people who loved us and raised us and took care of us since we were adopted as babies- do this? How can you go against us like this? What are you doing?" the blond cried, frustrated, "Don't you love us?"

"Oh, Boomer," HIM shook his head, "You always were the most naive. The most loving, but the most naive. You shouldn't let your emotions get the best of you," he said maliciously as he snapped his fingers. In an instant, a shrill cry came from the other blonde and Skye fell to the ground, clutching her temples.

"Skye!" the blonde's boyfriend exclaimed as he rushed to her side. Her sisters backed away seeing the look in Blue's eyes and soon joined their counterparts, facing HIM and Mojo.

"You disgust me," Blue said coldly as he held Skye's gentle frame in his arms. Narrowing his eyes at HIM and Mojo, he continued, "I don't know how I ever thought I loved you two."

Ignoring the blond's biting remark and the other blonde's deafening cries, the duo turned their attention back to the their remaining children. Green looked absolutely furious whereas Red just seemed pensive, as if he was trying to decipher what he considered a mystery. As Skye's cries seemed to mitigate, the villains began their tirade once again.

"For you, Butch, it was your temper that made you unstable, the unstability brought forth by your temper . You were always so much more angry than your brothers who never seemed to be so hot-headed as you. You had such violent tendencies where you used violence to express your anger as a result of your tendencies that were violent," Mojo seemed almost amused as he delved into a character-analysis of his middle child.

"Where are you going with this?" Green growled, his hands balled up into fists.

"I think you know," HIM's voice was dangerously low, "Or is the dark too scary? Does the wittle baby need someone to turn on the lights?" he taunted, cruelly bringing up the brunet's childhood fear.

Green scowled and immediately launched an attack, unable to maintain his calm demeanor any longer. A blast of green went straight towards Mojo and HIM when HIM snapped his fingers, turning the energy into a bunch of brown snails.

"...What the hell?" Green muttered as he looked down at his hands.

"Attacking us already?" HIM tsked, "We haven't even told you our brilliant plan!" he exclaimed, referring to the villain cliché of divulging the evil scheme before the big fight scene.

"Spill," Jade demanded, her voice demanding and her stance frighteningly powerful.

"Well, since you insist, I will explain and explicate our most evil scheme to take control of the Earth that will soon belong to us as a result of our most ingenius plan that-"

"Mojo, let me take it from here," HIM cut him off, preventing another one of his tirades. Turning towards the superhumans he grinned most diabolically. "See, Townsville is one of the biggest cities in the world and taking it under that buffoon of a mayor requires no more than a few jars of pickles. Using the J&M database, Mojo and I have devised a virus that will interfere with the town's water supply and subsequently, its pickle production. With the press of a button, we'll hack the city mainframe and bring Townsville to its knees. After that, it's only a matter time before the Mayor hands over the city to us and we use it as a foothold to takeover the rest of the world," he cackled.

"I knew you were up to no good," Red narrowed his eyes as HIM confirmed his earlier suspicions.

"Give it up, you two. It'll never work," Rose stated.

HIM instead, took her threatening words as a challenge, and replied, "Oh really? It's as simple as pushing a button!" he said evilly as a cloud of black smoke appeared and vanished, revealing a bright red button that HIM powerfully mashed. A loud beep sounded and HIM grinned triumphantly at the six who looked shocked, then defeated.

"Five percent uploaded, fifteen minutes remaining," a robotic voice declared, causing HIM to scowl.

"Damn it! What kind of internet connection do you brats have in here?" he exclaimed angrily.

"Perhaps we should return to mocking our pathetic children?" Mojo suggested as a way to pass the time. HIM smiled devilishly in agreement.

"Oh, but in the mean time?" the rubicund devil clicked his fingers once again. This time, a swarm of rabid monkeys came flying from every opening in the room and quickly hopped towards Green and Jade, "Something to keep you busy while you wait," he said cloyingly sweetly. Mojo sent a deadpanned look to his compatriot.

The two brunets glared a hole through HIM but didn't have the chance to do much else before the vicious simians began attacking. Jade and Green were pressed back to back and they managed to fight off the monkeys with beams of green and a few strategic kicks before realizing that it would take some teamwork to finish up the job. Lacing arms, the green-eyed superhumans worked as a team, each feeding of the other's energy and using the other to propel themselves into attack.

"Ten minutes remaining until complete upload."

HIM and Mojo finally looked at the last pair, the redheads, and HIM raised an eyebrow, challenging the redhead to make the next move.

Finally, "Why? Why are you doing this?" Red asked, shaking his head, unable to make sense of his parents actions, "Why would you waste twenty-something years of your life raising us only to want to destroy us and control the world?" He scoffed, "Okay, I understand you being power-hungry megalomaniacs, but what do you get out of destroying your sons?"

"You always were the smart one, the son of ours who exhibited the most intelligence and perspicacity," Mojo commented, almost wistfully.

"Which means you should understand that whenever there's an obstacle, it must be removed," HIM said, rather gently (or as gentle as his dark, evil voice could sound). His smile growing increasingly diabolical, he continued, "Nothing personal," he grinned.

That seemed to be the final straw and Red finally raised his hands as he sent streams of crimson energy towards his former caretakers. His impulsive, destructive action seemed to surprise the two villains, but they quickly retaliated. HIM grinned as the room suddenly became darker and more sinister, as did Mojo when he pulled out an enormous bazooka.

Rose's eyes widened as she joined her counterpart in maintaining the attack when a burst of blue energy went flying into HIM's back, sending him to the ground. The two redheads turned towards the source of it and saw Bubbles, weakly standing up as her lip quivered.

"I am not weak enough," the normally amicable blonde growled ferociously as she floated towards him, her blue eyes glistening with fury. "Don't think for a moment that a pathetic brain freeze of an attack would ever be enough to take me down, Mr. Morrison," she cried, incensed that the evildoer had expected her to fall so easily, as she brought both hands together, strengthening her attack on him.

Blue was standing behind her and couldn't help but smirk at his girlfriend's actions when he too joined her in ambushing HIM. As she maintained a steady stream of aquamarine, Blue sped over to HIM and used the window of opportunity to beat him to the ground. HIM struggled, trying to snap his fingers to launch a counterattack, but Blue refused to let him. Repeatedly punching him, Blue made sure HIM was getting the beating he deserved.

On the other end of Brick's corporate office, the brunets had piled up the unconscious monkey minions and turned towards Mojo. Green had no qualms about rushing towards him with flashing hands and Jade trailed behind him, her eyes almost as alight as his. The petite brunet narrowed her green eyes to focus the stream of emerald energy on Mojo's blaster, which soon turned into puddle of liquid metal under her fiery stare. Green followed up behind her, punching Mojo in the face and sending him into the wall before he could defend himself.

"Five minutes remaining," the automatonic voice called out the urgency of the situation.

Rose's eyes widened as she looked towards Red who looked absolutely livid at the fact that his so-called parents used his hard-earned company to abuse the city in a feeble attempt to rule the world. She gave him a little smile, trying to reassure him before she sped towards Brick's familiar mahogany desk. A little vial labeled Antidote X near the keyboard, however, made her eyes widen and she subconsciously took a step back.

Red noticed it as well and approached the desk, destroying the vial of Antidote X with his heat vision. He then raised an eyebrow at Rose who soon positioned herself in front of the computer monitor and was clacking away at the keys, trying her best to disable the virus as HIM and Mojo were beaten mercilessly.

"I'll fry it," Red offered, warming up a ball of crimson energy in his palm, but Rose shook her head.

"Two minutes until complete upload."

"We can't risk anything, here, Red. The city's at stake," Rose told him, shaking her head. "There's got to be a way to disarm this..." she mumbled to herself, biting her lip. Suddenly, her eyes brightened and Rose leaned towards the computer, a confident smile gracing her lips as she punched a few keys on the keyboard, gracefully pressing enter.

An upbeat ding sounded and Rose let out the breath of air she forgot she was holding. To her utter shock, her mouth felt frigid as little snowflakes escaped it. She would've pressed this odd, new ability further but-

"Upload aborted."

"How did you do that?" Red turned towards her incredulously.

She grinned, "Let's say I learned a lot working here in this office," she stated, subtly answering how she disabled the virus. It also helped that Mojo and HIM had probably forgotten to delete the huge 'abort' button in the bottom left corner of the screen.

Figuring she didn't plan on elaborating, Red just smirked as he turned back to the scene in his office. Rose joined him as she unplugged the thumbdrive containing the malicious virus and crushed it in her fist, letting the remaining dust fall to the floor.

"Let's finish this," Red cracked his knuckles as he joined in on the fight.

Red flashed over to HIM and joined the two blondes in giving him a good redhead's hands flaming scarlet, he brought his fist to meet HIM's long face once, then again. Alternating hands, he repeatedly through a flurry of punches until HIM couldn't take it anymore. Letting out a groan, the ruddy transvestite finally went under.

As Red moved onto the other villain, Rose followed up behind him and decided to use her new-found power. Inhaling deeply, she opened her mouth and blew out a blizzard that not only made the sweltering temperature of the room much more bearable, but also encased the criminal in a block of ice there was no easy way out of.

Red had slammed Mojo against his office wall as he unceasingly hit the stocky simian until the battered Mojo finally muttered something incoherent before slipping to the ground, unconscious. Red picked him up like a sack of potatoes and tossed him towards the frozen HIM. Rose pulled Princess out from under the lamp and placed her with her corrupt cohorts before restraining the blacked out villains in another ice stronghold.

"They never stood a chance," Green, not Butch as he pulled off his mask, grinned confidently.

"What are we gonna do about that giant painting of them in the penthouse?" Blue, now Boomer as he did the same, asked curiously.

"Burn it," Red replied darkly, following the actions of his brothers as he ripped off his black mask. Turning to look around at his office, assessing the damage, he frowned.

"I'll get a contractor on it first thing tomorrow," Blossom offered, reading his thoughts. But as she looked out to the sky through the shattered window and saw the sun peeking through the horizon, she corrected herself, "Today."

"Don't worry about it," Brick shook his head offhandedly, giving her a little smile.

"Ughhh," a groggy groan forced the six to face the incapacitated evildoers. It was HIM who had stirred; his eyes slowly fluttered open. Realizing his state, they shot open as he tried to snap his fingers to free himself, but discovered he couldn't. He struggled for a while before finally slumping over in defeat. "We had the perfect plan..." his feminine voice murmured before he looked up at the six superhumans angrilly, "And we would've gotten away with it too if hadn't been for you meddling kids!"

"What is this? Scooby Doo?" Buttercup scoffed. Turning back to the others she said, "I'll stick around for the police, but you all can go," she offered.

Bubbles grinned her brunette sister as she clutched Boomer's hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze, "Thanks, sis," she said before turning to her blond, "Wanna pick up where we left off last night?" she asked, her eyes sparkling.

"Absolutely," Boomer answered before the two left in a flash of blue.

"You going?" Buttercup asked Butch, a twinge of disappointment in her voice.

"Nah, not really," he grinned at her, shoving his hands in his pockets. "I thought I'd stick around here." She smiled at him as a slew of butterflies flew into her stomach against her will.

"I think I owe you a date," Brick smirked at the petite redhead before him.

"I think I've got to get to work in an hour," Blossom replied weakly as she looked up at the surprisingly intact clock on the wall.

"I hear your boss wants you to take the day off anyway," the taller redhead took a step closer to her as he grinned playfully.

"Oh, well, in that case," Blossom simpered, sending him a warm smile, "Why don't we get breakfast?"

...

"You know, I've always loved pancakes," Blossom commented as she rested her head on Brick's shoulder. They had just gotten breakfast after the two refreshed themselves since they both were a mess as a result of the fight. Blossom had changed into a salmon and scarlet floral sundress, her hair tied in a neat ponytail with a bright red silk ribbon. Brick wore a crimson tee and dark-washed jeans along with a backwards red baseball cap on his head, allowing only a few of his copper locks to peek out.

Tightening the arm he had wrapped around her and bringing her closer, Brick inhaled the soft strawberry scent of her auburn hair and a satiated smile found its way to his lips, "I'm glad," he murmured. Suddenly coming to a stop, he turned towards Blossom who sent him a quizzical glance. "Blossom... Can I tell you something?" he asked softly.

"Of course," she chirped. "What is it?" the petite redhead looked at him curiously.

Brick inhaled, taking in a huge breath before answering. "I... I think you're amazing," Brick confessed, clearly uncomfortable in this foreign territory, but he continued "You're the most incredible person I've ever met. And I mean it. Blossom... I love you," he declared.

The other redhead had turned bright red and her eyes were wide as they started watering, "Brick, really?" she whispered, almost afraid this was another one of his little pranks. He nodded and smiled at her sincerely. In that moment, she knew he was genuinely in love with her. "I love you too," she grinned before grabbing a handful of his copper hair and pulling him in for a passionate kiss.

Sure, the past few months had been absolutely crazy as Blossom juggled her double lives, but she couldn't deny that she enjoyed it. Blossom Utonium, the law student turned personal assistant, had been put through some ridiculous trials, but she never would've met the amazing man in her arms if she hadn't needed a job so desperately. And Rose the Powerpuff Girl had been put through hell and back with the town turning against her and her sisters before they finally lost their powers, but if she hadn't dedicated her life to protecting the town, she never would've met Red and gotten to the bottom of the massive murder plot that had endangered the safety of Townsville.

So, two lives might not be better than one, but they certainly were much more exciting.

...

The end! (Well, maybe not. Do y'all want an epilogue?)

Hope you enjoyed the story! Thanks so much for reading and I hope you leave a review.
