Authors Note: hey everyone, I just want to let everyone know that I'll be going away on vacation tomorrow and coming back on the 12/28/10. I'll pick things up from here as soon as I get back. I just didn't want leave everyone hanging. So this chapter is going to run a little longer then the previous chapter before it. Also for those of you who haven't gotten it yet, butch has multiple personality disorder, so every now and then he will transition from Butch to Jason as the story moves on. I don't want people to get confused and think that Butch and Jason are two different people. Enjoy the duel between Brick and Blossom.
Chapter 26
In a heartbeat Brick disappears then reappears in front of her, then upper cuts her in the face. She fly's off her feet and falls onto the pavement hard. She lays there for a minute before getting up and standing wobbly. She looks up just in time to see brick bringing his foot down on her. She then blocks it with her arms to keep it from colliding with the top of her head.
Brick smirks down at her "you seem a little rusty, has it really been that long?" he raises his foot again and brings it down again "it's been a while for me too, but then again, I've been taking karate classes since I was 12 so I never truly forgot how to fight". He presses his foot down hoping she would get weak and release his foot.
Blossom struggles to keep his foot from hitting her face and in one swift motion grabs his ankle and swings him around, she then swings him into a brick wall. Without letting go she swings him around again and let's go throwing him hard, straight through the display window of a nearby boutique. She looks at him as he groans on the floor in pain "yes I'll admit it, maybe I'm rusty or maybe I'm just over confident. I always won against you brick and I confident that I will today", despite her outward confidence she really wasn't sure about whether she could actually beat him or not. Things were so much simpler when they were kids, now she was seriously thinking that she should have trained a little more before showing up.
Brick growls and zooms straight at her and rams her in the stomach flinging them to the other side. They both fall over with brick on top, blossoms fast reflexes cause her to instantly use her legs to lift him up and over her head and to the ground. He lands on his back and instantly rolls onto his feet and flings a laser ball at her, she dodges it with a shield. As the 2 redheads fight Jason sits on the rooftop looking down at them and enjoying the show. He suddenly senses something coming up behind him and turns. Buttercup, boomer and bubbles land a good distance behind him.
Buttercup glares at him hatefully "you've got some balls showing your face here".
Jason looks back at her for a moment with an unreadable expression on his face. Then as if a light bulb turned on in his brain, he smiles at her "hey I know you, you're that chick I fucked".
[Below at the battlefield]
Both blossom and brick paused in their actions as they heard the sound of fist connecting with someone's face. They could both see Jason being thrown from the rooftop and into the wall of the building next door. Jason then peels off of the wall of the building and fell to the ground lifelessly.
Brick chuckles "looks like Buttercup is here".
Blossom looks back at him "well she has been waiting to see him again".
"I can tell" Brick zooms at her again ready to deliver another punch, blossom turns in the same direction as his fist making it seem like his hit connected. She spins completely around and slides away from him on her feet. Brick laughs "clever", he zooms after her again and she zooms toward him, in a flash of pink and red lights the two clash with one another.
[Meanwhile]
Butch slowly struggles to get up, he gets into a standing position groaning and holding his head "shit where am I now?"
Buttercup floats downward to the area a good distance behind butch and glares at him with a fiery hatred in her eyes "you're the scum of the earth and I've been waiting a long time for this". When he turns to look at her she stops in her tracks.
Dark green eyes stare at her in total confusion, butch then smiles at her "baby, when did you get here?"
Buttercup zooms up to him and straight punches him in the face "don't you dare call me your baby".
Butch is flung by that punch straight to the ground he then lays on his back grimacing from the pain "shit, bitch are you on the rag or something?"
Buttercup fly's up and brings both knees down on his stomach knocking the wind out of him. She then begins to pummel his face while still on his stomach. Butch automatically turns them both over till he is on top but buttercup laser eyebeams him off of her. He slides a good distance from her before taking off in a flash of dark green light away from her. Buttercup growls "oh no you don't asshole" she zooms after him in a flash of light green. Boomer and bubbles look down at everyone fighting with matching worried looks on their faces.
Boomer shakes his head "what a mess, it's an all out brawl down there".
Bubbles holds onto his arm "should we do something?"
Boomer holds the hand on his arm "there's nothing we can do, we shouldn't interfere with blossom and bricks duel. But we should probably stop buttercup from killing butch".
[Meanwhile]
Blossom is flung to the ground in front of Townsville hall and bounces off the pavement then falls to the steps, cracking the stone stairs. She flinches in pain a little and looks around her rapidly for brick, noticing he had suddenly disappeared from her line of sight. She realizes that this fight was going nowhere; they were too evenly matched "I'm going to need a plan". But before she could think of anything a school bus fly's directly at her. With a shout she ducks and it crashes to the steps behind her. She turns quickly noticing everything was quiet again "brick?" Suddenly a huge airplane came at her; she instantly fly's up catches it and throws it back in the air. She lands just in time to see a huge tanker ship come her way; she catches it and holds it sliding on the gravel trying to keep it from going through Townsville hall. "IS THIS THE BEST YOU CAN DO? We're not 5 anymore".
Brick fly's up to the other end of the ship and presses the entire thing onto blossoms body forcing her onto her back. He has her anchored to the ground and smiles down at her "looking good from up here Hun". He uses the ship to push blossom deeper into the ground "I thought you might like to reminisce on the first time we met". He lifts the ship off her and uses it like a golf club "FOUR". He bats her semiconscious body straight into the mayor's office. She skids on the floor and straight against the wall.
Her mind flew in and out of consciousness, then she shakes her head to stay focused. She weakly crawls to her knees and pants, the weight of the ship had pressed down on her lungs so she was relieved to get a breath of fresh air.
"Blossom are you alright?"
Blossom's eyes widen as a voice spoke to her from her right. She turns to see the mayor and Miss Sarah bellum hiding behind the mayor's desk. Miss Bellum looks over at her worried. Blossom looks back at her "Miss Bellum? Mayor? What are you two still doing here?"
The mayor comes out and looks at her excitedly "it's been a long time since we've seen a monster around here. I just wanted to see what it looked like".
Miss Bellum walks up behind him "sorry he got away from the shelter we were in and I chased him back here".
"You guys have to get out of here" blossom looks at them distressed, suddenly brick fly's into the room through the hole blossom made. Blossom looks back at him "brick wait, let them clear out of our way first".
Miss Bellum looks at brick in shock "this is brick?"
"He looks like one of those handsome underwear models" the mayor chimes in.
Brick looks at the mayor confused "you're still alive? Aren't you pushing a hundred or something?"
"90 actually" the mayor says proudly "it's the new 40 you know".
"No it's not" Miss Bellum sighs in frustration.
Brick then notices Miss Bellum and winks at her "heh…heh Got Milf?" suddenly a vase was launched at him, hitting the side of his head. He glares at blossom and rubs the now sore area "ow….bitch".
Blossom glares back and her hands start to glow "you are such a flirt, when we are married all of that is going to stop, DO YOU HEAR ME?" She blasts a huge laser at him.
Brick blasts a beam back at her "marriage, marriage, marriage, YOU'RE LIKE A FUCKING BROKEN RECORD". The 2 beams connect and push against each other for a fight for power "I'm not letting you win this, YOU CAN'T".
"That's what you think" she forces her laser beam even more at his own "I REFUSE TO BE YOUR SLAVE".
The mayor looks at the exchange smiling "awww what a cute couple they make aye Miss Bellum?"
Miss Bellum sighs "but sir their beating each other up, their fighting, it's a massive chaotic mess".
The mayor sigh fondly "ah yes, reminds me of my marriage".
Blossoms laser beams wins out and she manages to blast brick clear out of the room and out of the building. His head gets rammed into a nearby water tower. While he struggles to get his head out, blossom talks to the mayor and bellum "please excuse me".
Miss Bellum walks towards her "blossom wait".
Blossom stops and looks back at her "what is it?"
"I'm worried about what's happening to you" Miss Bellum says "you've never acted this reckless and impulsive. You use to be so sweet and innocent. All you ever thought of was doing what's best for Townsville".
Blossom looks at her for a moment "I know I've always done what's best for Townsville, I've done everything for this town, but you know what Miss Bellum; at some point in my life I have to think about myself. What is it I want? What do I desire?" She looks outside at Brick as he pries his head out of the water tower and gasps for air while cursing her name. Blossom grins "I love him, I desire him and I want no one else but him; so I think it's about time I make myself happy".
The mayor smiles at her "and I'm sure you will be, he's grown into a fine young man".
"YOU FUCKING CUNT" Brick shouts at her "YOU ALMOST DROWNED ME".
Miss Bellum sighs and speaks sarcastically "oh yeah he's a real keeper".
Blossom smiles and grabs the mayor's desk "may I borrow this mayor?"
"Why of course you can dear" the mayor says joyfully.
Blossom smiles; takes the desk and launches it at brick down below. It crashes on top of his head causing him to curse "STOP FUCKING THROWING THINGS AT ME". He zooms away and blossom chuckles and zooms after him.
The mayor chuckles also "go get your man blossom". He then smiles up at his long time secretary "ah Miss Bellum ain't love grand".
Miss Bellum hunches over and sighs again muttering to herself "why am I still working for this idiot?"
[Meanwhile]
Butch fly's off a good distance from buttercup and does a complete turn; round housing her to the face. She's catapulted by the kick into another building. He then land on the building opposite her "listen babe, I didn't plan on fighting you, but don't think for a second I'm just going to let you kick my ass".
Buttercup zoomed from the wall of the building and attacks him with a few more punches and kicks "what else is new? You won't even take responsibility for your actions". When the punches weren't connecting, she kicks him in the nut sac, grabs his head and rams it to the ground.
At this moment boomer and bubbles intervene; Bubbles pulls buttercup away from butch and boomer kneels down to check on butch. Buttercup shrugs bubbles off "don't protect him, he deserves everything he gets".
Butch hisses in pain holding his crotch but slaps boomers hand away as he tries to help "get away from me you traitor". He then lays still for a moment, everyone watches him wondering why his actions have halted. He then looks up and stares at all of them through silver eyes. He then chuckles at their shocked expressions and gets up "you guys look like you're about to shit your pants".
Boomer backs up a bit "what the hell happened to your eyes butch?"
"IT'S JASON" Jason flips out and yells at them "Christ, I look nothing like him, even his green bitchy girlfriend can't tell the difference".
Buttercup looks over at him "what the fucks going on?"
Jason smiles at her "you're not punishing him by beating him up. He enjoys pain; it's the only thing he understands these days".
Buttercup frowns again "alright you bastard, what kind of sick game are you playing now?"
"I think the time for games is over" and with that he zooms at her and grabs her neck with one hand. He lifts her and slams her to the ground choking her. Bubbles panics and laser eyebeams him causing him to let go. While bubbles pulls buttercup away, boomer puts Jason in a head lock and pulls him away from the girls. He holds Jason back as buttercup regains her composure. Boomer and Jason fight against each other and Boomer knees Jason in the back near his ribcage and the resulting pain brought butch back to them. He lets butch go and lets him fall to the floor.
Boomer gets between butch and the girls "don't make me have to fight you butch, cause I will".
Butch gives him a psychotic angry look "so it's true, YOU ARE FUCKING BUTTERCUP". He throws a punch at boomer; who then dodges it and backs away.
"What the hell are you talking about?" boomer says confused.
Buttercup fly's up to him and punches butch in the face "even if he was, so what? You don't love me anyway, AND I FUCKING HATE YOU". She loses it and punches him repeatedly in the face and body.
[Back to the battlefield]
Blossom is chasing Brick when she notices a large gasoline truck on the streets below and gets an idea. She decides first to land on the middle of the street and pries open the lid on a man hole, she then takes the lid and flings it like a Frisbee in bricks direction. Brick maneuvers around it and zooms at her like a rocket; he sets his own hands on fire and throws a stream of fire balls at her. She ducks and dodges them to set her plan in motion. She zooms in the direction of the tanker ship he threw at her earlier and lifts it up. She then throws it at him; he laughs and shoots his fireballs at it causing it to explode in mid air. In the flames and smoke of the explosion, blossom zooms directly into it and rams hard into bricks stomach sending him flying toward a nearby gasoline truck. She knew she had to time this right, so she tossed an energy blast at him which caused him to also ram into the truck. The truck explodes upon impact of both him and the energy blast. While his body was flung into the air; blossom zooms forward and grabs one of his legs, she then swings him with all of her might throwing him halfway across the city. Brick was too disoriented to realize what was happening and stop himself, but it was too late. His body slams through into the building. He lands on the floor of the building hard and lays there for a bit, unable to think clearly on what just happened. He struggles to get on his feet and looks up to see a gigantic energy ball heading his way. All he had time to say was…"SHIT".
[Meanwhile]
Boomer and bubbles finally manage to pry buttercup off of butch when a huge explosion rocks their area. They look off into the distance just in time to see bricks body being thrown way over their heads and to the other side of the city. Another crash was heard indicating that brick had landed hard. Both Butch and boomer look at each other and their hearts sank, without another word to either of the girls they zoom off in the direction of the crash. Blossom zoomed by and lands next to her sisters with a scared look in her eyes.
Bubbles walks up to her "blossom, what happened?"
Blossom puts her hand to her mouth and shakes her head "please god no, not again, not him". Before the girls could stop her, she zooms out of reach toward where brick crashed. The area was covered in smoke and debris and there was a large crater in the ground. Butch and boomer land and look into the crater.
Butch calls out to him "brick, hey you ok?" There was no response.
Boomer doesn't wait for one "butch give me a hand". Butch nods and jumps in the crater along with boomer. Boomer reaches bricks body and grabs his hand. Butch grabs the other hand and both men put his arms over their shoulders. They carry him up to the surface and float a few inches away from the crater.
Butch lets go allowing boomer to hold him "watch his head".
Boomer lays brick down gently "I've got him". He lays brick on his back and then sits down next to him; butch sits on the other side. Boomer feels bricks neck and sighs in relief "he's ok, he's just unconscious". Bricks body was covered in ash and dirt, boomer shakes his head "he'll at least feel better then he looks".
Butch smirks "that's a relief" he pats the side of bricks face "hey wake up; time to shake it off dude". Brick doesn't stir, he's completely out cold.
Boomer grins "looks like blossom wins".
Butch frowns "give me a break, we're like 25 and we're still getting our asses kicked by those bitches".
"THEN MAYBE YOU SHOULD THINK TWICE BEFORE FUCKING WITH US" Buttercup shouts at him before landing behind them a good distance away.
Butch glares at her "whatever chick".
Bubbles looks over at brick concerned and goes to stand behind boomer looking over his shoulder "is he alright?" Blossom stays behind them totally traumatized, looking over at him worried.
Boomer smiles at Bubbles "he'll be ok, he's just passed out".
Bubbles nods in relief but notices something "oh my gosh he's waking up?" Blossoms expression turns hopeful when she sees brick about to stir.
Bricks eyes open in slits as his mind struggles to comprehend his surroundings "I …..lost…didn't I?"
Boomer looks down at him sympathetically and nods "yeah".
Butch chuckles while looking down at him "consider yourself officially fucked my friend". Brick stares at him groans and then passes out again.
Boomer looks behind him "don't worry blossom he'll be…." He trails off noticing that blossom disappeared. He looks around him and blinks turning to the 2 remaining sisters "where did she go?"
[A distance away]
Blossom zoomed through the sky, the whole situation scared her, she couldn't face brick after almost killing him. She began to think that going after her own needs and being a little selfish was a big mistake. This whole thing was a huge mistake and because of her carelessness the man she loved almost died. She flew away to clear her head and reconsider what to do next.
