Chapter: Was she worth keeping alive?


Miyako's P.O.V.

A full week has passed since the school had gotten destroyed. The re-build had been finished today with help of the Rowdyruff boys Z and I was happy Boomer was finally going to have some free time again. I hadn't seen him since he saved me and I wondered how he was.

This week off had given the girls and me the time to catch up and they were very relieved to hear I lied about losing my virginity. I had explained them everything and they had agreed to play along.

Kaoru had also told us Butch had found out who she was and he was okay with it. She also explained she didn't want to date him as long as he held Dai captive, as her morals were still a lot stronger than her feelings for him. I couldn't blame her but I also knew Butch was going to do everything in his power to convince Kaoru to be his girlfriend.

Momoko had finally opened up and had reluctantly embraced her feelings for Brick, but now Brick was playing hard to get and kept his distance. I did text Boomer about it but he told me I didn't need to worry about those two….but the thing is I did worry about those two as I knew Momoko hadn't found her compact back after they had searched her house.

I did dream about all the possibilities that the future could hold for us, but none of them seemed to please all our wishes. Either the boys were still going to rule the world or we were still ending with them in jail for the rest of their lives. Whatever the outcome was going to be… I would never be completely happy and so would my friends…

Maybe I could talk with the professor about this problem? I knew he has a few memories back and at this point he's the least judgmental person around would probably do everything in his power to help me. Maybe even James would help me, knowing Ann was now also locked up in jail.

I flew towards the hideout and quickly went to the professor. He and James were working on some kind of gun that resembled the one Dai had previously used on the boys. I could see it was still in the experimental phase and I didn't know if I liked this or not.

''James…Professor… can I talk to you two about something private?'' Both man continued their work and I crossed my arms in defense. There had to be a way to get their attention right?

''it's about me dating Boomer….'' Now they stopped working and turned towards me. Good! I got their attention. Now I only wanted them to listen to what I had to say and come up with a good solution.

''It seems that every PPGZ is falling for her counterpart and it's making it even more difficult to stop the RRBZ from ruling the world then it previously was. '' James and the professor both stayed quiet as they thought about what to say.

They seemed to realize we had found ourselves in an impossible position but non the less they wanted to find a way out that would please everyone. ''Well, there is one thing you could try'' James suddenly said, surprising the Professor and me. I guess he needed to explain a lot as he walked up to a desk and began to write down some things on paper.


Brick's P.O.V.

The boys and me had worked hard the last week. Townville high was again standing proudly in the city and now I had finally time to enjoy Momoko's texts. Something had changed her mind as she was a lot more open to talk to me.

Of course I was glad to know she cared about me when I got injured, but after that I have tried my best to ignore her and hopefully get her attention. It did seemed to have paid off as she had texted me more the last few day then the last two weeks combined. I love getting a little more control over her.

Still something told me she wasn't quit over her fear jet and that bugged me. Her first approach to me was there but she was very careful at her choice of words. Why was she getting scared all the time? Even if she did work for the resistance she knew I would never kill someone….unless it was my counterpart…

The thought of her being Blossom had crossed my mind before and I always denied it. Yes, she was smart and she loved candy but so did a lot of girls. I looked at my list to confirm Momoko had indeed been crossed off, but she was still on it. I frowned as I checked everything I had written down about her. Momoko fitted perfectly in Blossoms profile.

I refused to believe it and looked at the pile of electronics I had confiscated at her house last week.

Maybe I could find something that proved she was innocent? I inspected everything piece by piece only to stop once I found a round object in my hand that looked way to familiar. Using my hands, I opened it and watch the screen turn on.

I quickly closed it again as my mind rushed off into may directions. Part of me told me to go and destroy her while another part told me to keep calm and look at the facts. I laid down on my bed and I stared at the ceiling. How could I have been so blind?

I cursed… it had been me who had stepped up to her and at this point in time I couldn't deny I was having it very difficult to decide what to do with her. I really didn't want to lose Momoko… but if she never loved me back…was she worth keeping alive?

Heart ache was beginning to tear me apart as I kept on checking the facts. Apparently I had fallen for my counterpart without knowing it and I looked at our texts one more time. Momoko could have given me the attention I wanted because of me having her compact...then again...why didn't she ran away?

Did she love me?

When I got wounded last week I could see that she cared. That wasn't a lie, I could feel it was sincere concern. In that case It could explain why she has such a hard time opening up to me. I'm supposed to be her worst enemy, not her lover.

I then realized that Momoko must have had it very difficult with me flirting with her, but she always stayed polite. She rejected me but she never did something to purposely hurt me or stop one of my plans.

My face softened when I finally understood what was going on. She and the other PPGZ may have tried to get on with their lives after they lost the big fight in which we caught Dai. It would explain why she always stayed so casual…and it also explained why they suddenly teamed up with the resistance again. We came to close to discover who they are.

I looked at my phone again and doubted my feelings. Confusion was still having a hold on me when I got a brilliant idea. Whatever outcome I was going to choose, it was probably for the best to keep her locked up inside my castle anyway.
