*Boomer*

He heard a knock on his bedroom door, "Go away!" He yelled as he placed his head under the covers. It's been maybe a few days since Nelly lost the baby, he's lost track of time could've been more than that. They've been told by the doctors that they ran some tests and it turns out the Chemical X in his sperm cells are too strong to handle a regular human's womb, if Nelly did manage to carry the baby a little longer there's a good percent chance she wouldn't of made it either. He's been by Nelly's side throughout the full time but Boomer's been advised by her parents to maybe give each other some space which was bullshit to him, they've never liked me he thought to himself bitterly.

"Yo, it's me." He could hear Butch's voice after the knock, I couldn't care less

"Go away." He repeated himself as he stayed under the covers.

Butch ignored his brother's request and opened the door. Boomer couldn't see much but he could tell there was a shine of light coming from the hallway into his dark room. He heard Butch stepping towards him and felt him sitting at the end of the bed, "I would ask how you're doing but that's a stupid question." He heard his green brother say.

Boomer didn't reply, instead he stayed silent keeping himself still. "Come on, bro talk to me." He heard again.

"Why aren't you in university?" Boomer asked plainly

Butch wasn't expecting that question, he opened his mouth unsure of what to say, "I managed to get a couple weeks off. Told them it was a family emergency."

"Well you're wasting you time. You shouldn't of come." Boomer replied in dry tone

"What the fuck are you talking about of course I should've came." Butch snapped, a little too quickly.

"It wasn't your baby." Boomer shot back harshly

Butch was silent for a moment before replying as he chose his words carefully, "Listen, bro I know it wasn't my kid but it was still my niece or nephew. My blood. And the fact that you just said that hurts."

Boomer peaked over his covers but was blinded by the light that was coming in from the hallway, once he narrowed his eyes he got a good view of Butch sitting at the end of the bed with the look of hurt and concern in his green orbs, "I'm sorry I said that, it's just..." Boomer's voice was started to break with slight tears appearing in his blue eyes.

"I know man, I know." Butch said as he patted Boomer's leg over the cover, "Mojo said you've been stuck in here for a few days. Wanna come in to the living room with me, Mojo and Brick? Get you out of this room for a few hours?" He pitched, hoping Boomer would accept.

"Not really, no." Boomer replied before placing his head under the covers again

"Come on, please?" He begged. "We really need to talk to you."

"I don't want to talk to anyone I just want to be left alone."

"Well you don't need to talk just listen...and if you don't like what you hear then you can go back to bed. Deal?" Butch offered as he lightly spat on the palm of his hand waiting for his brother to shake.

Boomer looked over his sheets again and thought about the offer for a couple of seconds, "Promise?"

"A deals a deal, ain't it?" Butch raised a brow as his hand was still out. Boomer considered carefully before spitting on his own hand and shaking hands with Butch, "atta boy."

The blue Ruff threw the covers off him and sat up, maybe a little too quickly because he felt his head spinning, when was the last time I ate? He asked himself before sighing and getting up following Butch's lead. When he passed the mirror in the hallway he saw his own reflection, I look like shit his eyes were all red and puffy with dark circles around them with the lack of sleep. His nose was slightly red almost looking like he had a cold, hardly any life or colour in his face.

*Brick*

His mind has been racing a hundred mile an hour since he's sussed Blossom out. He hasn't told anyone, yet. His mind as has also been occupied with Boomer's news, every time he thinks about it he's tempted to punch the nearest wall. Right now, he had to keep himself together.

Brick and Mojo sat in silence in the family living room waiting for Boomer to enter the room. Before they knew it they heard the living room door open and Butch entering, giving a thumbs up and shortly after Boomer entered the room, he looks so ill Brick thought to himself, is that what I looked like when I came back home? Brick sat on his usual arm-chair next to Mojo while Boomer and Butch sat themselves down on the couch. The room was silent and Brick was avoiding eye contact with everyone, he hated the way his family looked at him for guidance but for the first time in forever he didn't know to do or say. Every time when he looked at his youngest brother he felt a wave of guilt washing over him, it should've been me to tell him rather than some doctor he thought as he sucked his bottom lip between his teeth feeling the guilt eating away at him.

"How are you feeling, son?" Mojo asked, breaking the silence.

Boomer shrugged, "What do you think?" He stated more than asked, keeping his eyes forward, not looking at anything or anyone in particular

There was another silence before Brick cleared his throat hunching himself forward as he rested his elbows on his knees bringing his hands together, "Booms, we know you're going through a lot right now but we just want to let you know it's not your fault."

"Of course it's my fault!" Boomer yelled as he stood up, "If I just listened to Nelly and dropped the case with the DEA none of this would've happen! She got stressed to the point she lost our baby!"

"Case with the DEA?" Butch's head raised with the look of confusion in his face, aw shit

"Boomer, that's not the case and you know that. Her womb didn't handle the Chemical X in the baby's blood cells, you wouldn't of known." Brick replied back hoping to calm his brother down.

"What case with the DEA?" Butch repeated his question this time louder as he stood up with Boomer

"I was helping the DEA with the drug case involving the kids from the youth centre." Boomer replied

"Wait...you're a fucking snitch?" Butch stated as he balled his fist

"Boys..." Mojo said sitting on the edge of his seat, knowing that shit was about to go down.

"I'm not a fucking snitch! I'm doing what's right for my town." Boomer replied as he stood face to face with Butch, standing his ground.

"By snitching!? You know our rule-" Butch said as he used his index finger to point into Boomer's chest

Boomer cut him off, "Fuck the rule, I don't care what you have to say about it. I'm doing the right thing by looking after my people - our people" Boomer shot back as he shoved Butch's finger out the way.

"Our people don't report back to the cops! Our people sort their differences aside man to man, you fucking halfwit!" Butch yelled, raising his voice.

Boomer had enough and launched himself at Butch pinning him to the ground while he threw punches aiming for the face. "BOOMS!" Brick yelled as he sprung off his seat, grabbing his brother by the waist and pulling him off Butch. When Butch was set free he pushed Brick off Boomer and grabbed him by the shoulder and head butted the young blonde making him land backwards which then Butch took the opportunity to go on top of Boomer and started punching him the same way Boomer did to him.

"Butch, you fucking animal!" Brick yelled trying to come in-between them

"Boys, please!" Mojo begged as he raised from his seat, using his paws to cover his mouth in horror as he watched the horrendous fight ready to escalate.

Brick tried to grab Butch by the waist and pull him back as the same he did to Boomer but Butch was much stronger and tougher to budge. So therefore, he grabbed both of Butch's arms and pulled them back, "Get off me, Red!"

"Get off Booms first, he just lost his kid!"

Butch stopped struggling in Brick's tight grip, "Fine" he said. As Brick loosened his grip Butch looked back down at his blue eyed brother who now had a black eye and spat on his face,

"Butch, you fucking pig! I didn't raise savages!" Mojo cried

"You didn't raise a snitch either." Butch muttered but loud enough for everyone to hear

"Get up! Both of you!" Mojo screamed. As Butch was in the process of getting up Mojo walked behind his private bar to get his step stool out, placed it in front of the green Ruff, what is he doing? Brick questioned himself as he watched the monkey hop on his stool and slap the living day lights out of Butch across the face. Mojo's slap sent Butch's face to turn the other direction, "Your brother just lost his child! Have some respect and stop acting like a brat!" Mojo said, putting the green Ruff in his place while Butch gritted his teeth as his head was still turned leaving a red monkey paw on the side of his face.

"And you!" Mojo pointed towards Boomer as Brick was helping him up, "What do you think your doing reporting back to the police?!" Boomer said nothing, instead he kept his head down ignoring the monkey.

"Shame on you. Shame on all of you." Mojo said as he took a seat on his arm-chair, using his fingers to pinch the bridge of his nose while he closed his eyes.

The full room was silent. Brick was the only one standing with his hands on top of his hat trying to process what just happened. Butch and Boomer both placed themselves back on the couch while Brick stood still. "Well, I'm sorry we're not as perfect as Brick" Boomer spat

Mojo used his index finger to point at Boomer, "Listen here, son. Your brother is the only one who's got his shit together! He warned you about the outcome of the pregnancy so don't blame him-"

"Woah, what do you mean he knew about the outcome of the pregnancy?" Boomer questioned as he turned his head towards Brick, "What is he talking about?" Boomer now asked Brick.

Brick's ruby eyes travelled towards Mojo, "You didn't tell him?" Mojo asked as he tilted his head in confusion

"Tell me what?" Boomer added

Brick's eyes travelled to Butch and his green brother had a look on his face to say you're fucked now. Brick sighed before sitting back down on his arm-chair, "When you first told us about Nelly being pregnant Mojo and I already knew what the outcome would be..."

"What?..." Boomer frowned his eyebrows, showing an expression of disbelief

"I was gonna tell you Booms, but it was never the right time-"

"So you let some wack-ass doctor tell me instead of my own brother!? That I can never bare kids-"

"-You can...but..."

"But..." Boomer commented, wanting his brother to continue.

Brick looked up towards Butch to see he nodded his head signalling to carry on, "It would need to be with either the Puffs or Punks..."

Boomer scoffed, not believing what he was hearing, "So you're telling me if I want kids Bubbles is my only chance?"

"It can be any one of the girls, not just Bubbles." Mojo added, hoping it didn't sound as bad as it actually was.

"Well that's just great, ain't it. So now you're telling me" Boomer looked at Mojo, "that the girls we were born to destroy are our only chance to conceive kids?" Mojo looked down in shame that his own son spoke to him in that tone and manner. Boomer darted his eyes towards Brick, "You both fucking knew and you still didn't say anything..." he then turned to Butch, "did you know, too?"

"I only found out this morning." Butch answered honestly as he bit his fingernails.

Boomer couldn't help but scoff finding the situation funny, "So everyone knew before me? Well that's great, some family." He said with the tone of disgust in his voice.

There was another silence before Butch broke it, "Why did you have to work with the police?"

Mojo and Brick both raised their head in worry, hoping another fight doesn't break out, "Because I'm gonna find out who this bitch Professor X is and put her behind bars, using innocent kids as a meal."

Brick avoided eye contact with anyone and kept his eyes glued to the floor, "And are you any close on finding out the identity?"

"One of the kids told me-"

"So you don't need the police! This is what I don't get-" Butch began until Brick interrupted

"What do you mean by that? You know who Professor X is?" Brick jumped in conclusion, raising his eyes towards Boomer

"No but I know she works as a waitress with red hair" he replied

"Could be anyone." Butch added

"Could be Princess." Mojo shrugged. All three boys looked at Mojo as if it was the most silliest answer they ever heard

"Can you imagine Princess as a waitress?" Butch asked.

"Fair point. Well if it's not Princess who else could it be?" Mojo asked, already fed up of the topic. He didn't like playing guessing games, too impatient for it.

The girl that I love Brick thought to himself.

*Blossom*

The pink Puff sat on the middle of her bed with her laptop doing basic research. She googled information regarding Prince Megabucks, she was surprised to see his net worth is way higher than Princess' and she found old articles dating back to 13 years of Prince trying to join forces with the Rowdyrock boys but he got rejected. Then she did research on the Rowdyrock boys and found every article under the sun for 'Most Wanted' and each of the boys were in jails once in their lives but always got bailed out. Hmmm... She found another link of prison sentences, she already knows she would get twenty-five to thirty years if she takes her case to trial however, if she accepts the plea deal then she would only get sixteen months.

She started to google local prisons and narrowed it down to two prisons she could be attending. The first one for the sentence of sixteen months would be to Headwood Prison which is located in Glassville but on the bright side it's minimum security. On the other hand Daleson Prison which is located in Citysville is maximum security with the sentence of twenty-give to thirty years, they even have death row in Daleson. Blossom had to gulp when she saw the death row part. She sighed loudly before leaning back on her bed, using her headboard for support. The more Blossom thought about it, she's grateful Brandon did his best to help her start again but she wanted to avoid prison as much as possible. On the other hand if she was ever to be caught, what's her back-up story? If she was to snitch she would lose street credit, do I even have street credit?

I'm so fucked she thought to herself and suddenly she remembered Brick's words; big fucks small...become bigger than them. Then all of a sudden an epiphany hit her become bigger she thought to herself. She sat up and looked at her laptop back on Headwood Prison page and thought over her idea. The thing with Blossom was she didn't entirely like making drugs she likes being bad, breaking the law and no-one knowing its her she got a thrill from it which gave her a rush and she liked keeping that feeling going. Sometimes she felt guilty about lying to everyone but at the same time it gave her a rush to know people believed her and wouldn't doubt whatever she told them...The Professor, her sisters, Mac, Agent Jones or even Brick for that matter. It's almost as if she liked being underestimated.

This might work out after all...she reached for her top drawer and pulled out her burner phone and used speed dial for the green Rocks number. The phone was ringing for awhile before there was finally an answer, "Yoooo lil mama, I dunno what you did or said but Brad's going off the rails." The green Rock answered.

She couldn't help but smirk at his comment, "Is this line secure to talk?" She asked before going any further

"As secure as the Mayor's bank account...why you thinking of talking dirty to me?" He teased with a cackle laugh causing Blossom to roll her eyes at his immaturity.

"You remember that deal you told me about...for sixteen months?"

"Yeah..." Brandon said on the other line with a firmer tone and a hint of curiosity through it

"How long can you hold that deal for?"

"Hmm not very long maybe a month max, why?"

"Work your magic and hold it as long as you can"

"Blossy...you know it doesn't work like that. As soon as someone narks on you that offers off the table."

"Well let's hope that no one narks on me. Thanks, Brandon I appreciate it."

"-Wait, hold up. Before you go, what did you say to Bradley?"

"I'm surprised he didn't tell you... I resigned."

"Noooo," his voice expressed disbelief before he started cackling again, "bitch, you are crazy. I never expected you to have the balls - good for you, boo. So, what's your plan of attack now?"

"Hand myself in to the feds and live an easy life." She lied

She heard Brandon scoff on the other line, "Now, why do I feel like you're not telling the truth?" Blossom could tell by the tone of his voice he was smirking.

"Why, what do you think I'm up to?" Blossom challenged

"By the sound of your voice it sounds like you're gonna carry playing the Professor X role but I'll be honest, I'll be disappointed if you didn't take the deal for sixteen months..."

"Brandon, I promise you I will take the deal I just need to get my affairs in order."

"'Aight well, I hope you know what you're doing. If you ever need me you got my number."

"Thanks. For everything." She said with a smile, "and don't worry you or your brothers name won't get mentioned."

"Do what you need to do but remember-"

"This conversation never happened." Blossom beat him to it

Brandon chuckled at her response,"You catch on quick. Take care of yourself, lil mama."

And with that Brandon hung up leaving Blossom listening to a dead line. Before she knew it she heard a buzzing noise which wasn't her burner phone. She looked around for her own phone and found it under her pillow to see Mac was trying to reach her. She was hesitant about answering the call but then again, she's been ignoring him since last nights dinner. She didn't know what to say but she couldn't ignore him forever, "Hello?"

"Hey Bloss, I was wondering if we could talk about last night?"

"Um...yeah listen I'm really sorry I threw your brother-"

"Don't be sorry, it was shit hot!" He cheered taking Blossom by surprise, "the way you threw him was soooo cool..." he went on about how cool it was to watch his brother being put in his place, it wasn't cool it was dangerous, I'm dangerous a liability to myself at this rate.

There was a silence on the phone, "Hello? Bloss?" He checked in, noticing his beloved girlfriend wasn't replying.

"Yeah, I'm still here. Hey Mac, I need to talk to you."

"What's up?"

There was a moment of silence and Blossom felt a soft tear roll down her cheek, "Listen, I really like you."

"Good. I really like you too." Mac giggled through the phone which made Blossom squeeze a single tear out

"But I can't be with you..." There was another silence on the line, "Hello? Mac, you there?" This time she checked to see if he was still on the line

"What are you talking about?" She could hear his voice breaking slightly

"I'm really sorry Mac, I really like you but I just can't be with you. I wish I could explain but I can't right now."

"You're not making sense, how could you just dump me for no reason? Is it me? Was it my family?...is it Brick?"

"No Mac, it's none of those reasons-"

"Bullshit, it's Brick isn't it?" He was determined to blame Brick for the break-up.

"Fucking listen to me! It's not Brick, it's not you, it's me! Okay? I can't explain-"

"Yes you can! Just talk to me, what can I do to understand?"

Blossom closed both her eyes, squeezing the excess tears out of her eyes before responding, "Just...just keep your eyes on the news. And always remember what we had was real." With that being said she ended the call before letting out a sob.

She sat on her bed with her knees brought up to her chest as she used her arms to cradle herself back and forward continuing to cry, I didn't mean for it to go this far she wanted to tell him. She wanted to tell him everything there and then but she couldn't, she couldn't jeopardise her plan. Before she knew it her phone was buzzing again, please, Mac give it a rest she thought but to her surprise it wasn't Mac calling her. It was Brick.

She answered her phone again, covering the sounds of herself sniffing, "Brick, this really isn't a good time right now-"

"Tough, we need to talk"

She rolled her eyes before letting out a sigh of frustration, "Not now, Brick-"

"I know"

"Jesus, what are you talking about?" She sighed, not being in the mood to play one of his games.

There was a silence on the phone before he spoke again, "I know you're Professor X." He said firmly, almost pissed. Blossom's eyes widen as she swallowed a dry lump stuck in her throat, I'm so fucked.
