Besides, I heard that McCracken likes to collect every unofficial product based on his series, so this must be good news to him :)
Hey! Now that I know that the boy's names are "The Rowdyruff Boys", Brick (the red one), Boomer (the blue one) and Butch (the green one), I don't need to put that long explanation on each chapter :)
And now, on with the story.
==================
Chapter 7
==================
Professor Utonium was pacing around the house, worried.
The last thing he heard about the girls as the TV live news was that they fought againts a giant robot made by Mojo Jojo at downtown Townsville, and that after defeating it, they flew away.
He waited a few more minutes when there was a knock at the door.
Professor Utonium went to the door to open it as fast as he could. When he opened the door he was surprised to see that the girls were carrying the bodies of three boys about their age. The three girls looked like they had cried their eyes out a while ago, and they still looked very sad.
"Girls? What happened ... who are these boys?" Asked the professor.
Blossom was the one that answered, "They are the Rowdyruff Boys ..." She talked so low that it was almost a whisper.
Prof. Utonium's eyes widened in shock, "The Rowdyruff Boys? You mean the three male counterparts of you that Mojo Jojo created all those years ago?"
Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup nodded.
"I see. But ... why did you bring them here?" Asked Prof. Utonium.
Blossom's eyes began to get glassy with tears once again, so did Bubbles and even Buttercup. "Can ... can you save them?" Asked Blossom, her pleading eyes full of hope.
"Save them? Are you sure?"
The girls nodded, "Yes, we are sure ... we love them."
Now Prof. Utonium was REALLY shocked, it was too much information at the same time. "Hum ... uhhh ... are-are you sure the feeling is mutual?"
"It was the last thing they said before they died." Said a teary eyed Blossom.
"They died just to save us." Added Buttercup.
"If that is not love, then I don't know what is." Finished Bubbles.
Prof. Utonium heard them, and nodded in understanding. He still had some doubts, but he trusted his girls to do the right thing.
"Okay, I'll see what I can do. Take them down to the lab." Said Prof. Utonium.
Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup looked at him with an expression of gratefulness, and quickly walked inside to put the three bodies of the boys in the laboratory.
*************************
It had been two hours since Professor Utonium had gone downstairs to the lab, alone, to see if he could save the boys.
Upstairs in the living room, Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup were waiting next to the door. They had been waiting there since they arrived to the house.
Finally, the door of the lab opened up, and out walked Prof. Utonium. He was wearing his usual lab coat, gloves and goggles.
The three girls surrounded him in a second, bombarding him with question about the boys' wellbeing.
Prof. Utonium calmed them down before talking, "Calm down, I have good and bad news. The good news is that I can save them."
The girls looked happier than ever as they heard that, then they took notice that Porf. Utonium had said that there where bad news too.
"What are the bad news?" Asked the girls.
Prof. Utonium sighed. "I need something to save them. Something that, unfortunately, only you can provide them with."
"What is it? We'll give up anything to save them." Said Bubbles.
"What do we have to do?" Asked Blossom.
"Well ......."
***************************
7:00 AM, the next morning.
Down at the lab of the Utonium household, three unmoving bodies were on top of three metalic tables. The three bodies were the bodies of the Rowdyruff Boys: Brick, Boomer and Butch.
Suddenly, Brick began to stir. His eyes opened slowly and lazily.
"Hmm? What-what happened ... where am I?" Brick then opened his eyes wide. He was alive! ALIVE!
He sat up quickly and immediately regretted it as he was struck by a headache.
"Owww ... I need an aspirin ... Huh?" Suddenly, Brick realized something. He had a headache. A HEADACHE! He wasn't supposed to have a headache! He had super powers! He was invulnerable! Unless ... he didn't have his powers anymore.
Brick tried to use some of his other powers, like heat vision or his ability to fly. Nothing worked ... he was a normal teenage boy with no special powers.
He looked around and quickly saw Boomer and Butch liying down on a metallic table nearby. He noticed their chests heaving. They were breathing.
Brick, curious to see if they still had their superpowers, quickly moved to wake them up.
"Boomer, Butch ... wake up ... we are alive!"
Boomer and Butch sowly woke up, then they registered what Brick said to them. Boomer slowly sat up, taking in the room around him. Butch also sat up slowly, too shocked about the fact that they were still alive. He rose a hand to his face and looked at it, it was real, he was really alive!
"Brick, what happened? How come we're alive?" Asked Boomer.
"I don't know. I woke up here just a second ago. Do you guys still have your super powers?"
Boomer and Butch blinked and looked at Brick. "Why do you ask?" Said Boomer.
"Because I don't have them, and I wanted to see if you do." Replied Brick.
Boomer and Butch tried to fly, and then tried a number of other things to test their powers. They didn't have their super powers either.
"What happened? Where ARE we?" Asked Butch.
"I'm not sure. I think I've been here berore ... hmmm ... Oh yeah! That's right, Blossom showed me this place when I came to her house! This is her dad's laboratory." Remembered Brick.
Suddenly, the three boys looked at each other at the mention of Blossom, as they remembered the girls and everything that happened the other night.
"The girls! Let's see if they are alright!" Excalimed Brick, and ran upstairs. Boomer and Butch following soon after.
*******************
Upstairs in the living room.
Prof. Utonium had done everything in his power to bring the three Rowdyruff Boys back to life, and had worked almost all night at it.
He went upstairs to his room to sleep since he was very tired.
He had asked the girls to go to their room to sleep too, and see how the boys were doing in the morning, but they refused, and decided to stay downstairs in case something happened.
They only managed to stay awake for a few hours, when finally they succumbed to esxhaustion and fell asleep on the couch.
The lab door opened quietly and out stepped Brick, Boomer and Butch. As they looked around, they quickly confirmed that they were indeed in the Utonium household.
The three boys looked around, and soon saw Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup sleeping on the couch.
They smiled when they saw that they were okay.
"They look like angels." Whispered Boomer.
"Shall we wake them up?" Asked Butch.
"Nah, let's let them sleep for a while." Whispered Brick.
When they were moving out of the room, they accidentaly stepped on a lose board on the floor, which made a loud squeak. Loud enough to wake the three girls.
The three boys turned around just in time to see the Powerpuff Girls wake up. When the girls saw the boys up and well, they jumped out of the couch in happines, rushed to them, tackled them to the floor and kissed them over and over again.
"*Kiss* Brick! *Kiss* You're alive! *Kiss* I love you! *Kiss* I love you! *Kiss* I love you!" Cried Blossom in joy. The same thing was happening with Bubbles and Boomer and with Buttercup and Butch.
"*Kiss* Blossom *Kiss* Wait *Kiss* what *Kiss* happened? *Kiss* Why are we *Kiss* still alive?" Asked Brick, curious to know what had happened, but not even trying to push Blossom off him.
They stayed like that for a moment, then Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup sat up, letting the three boys get up from the floor.
"Okay. I guess you're wondering what happened." Said Blossom.
Brick nodded. Boomer and Butch listened carefully.
"Well, the professor studied what Mojo's super laser did to your bodies. It seemed like it erased all of the Chemical X from your bloodstream." Explained Blossom.
"So, that's what killed us. But that doesn't explain why we're alive now." Said Brick.
"And it doesn't explain why we don't have our super powers." Added Boomer.
"I'm getting there, be patient." Said Blossom with a smile, and continued. "So. In order to bring you boys back to life, he had to supply your bodies with new Chemical X."
Brick, Boomer and Butch nodded. Then Brick remembered something. "Wait ... If I remember correctly, all the Chemical X in the world has run out a long time ago. Where did you get some to save us?" He asked.
Blossom smiled. "No. There was some Chemical X that remained."
"Where?" Asked Brick.
Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup pointed at their hearts. "Here." Replied Blossom.
It took the boys a few seconds for the information to sink in. Then their eyes widened in surprise. "You-you mean that ..."
The three girls smiled and nodded.
"But ... but that would have killed you too." Said a confused Brick.
"Well, we didn't extract all of the Chemical X out of us. We extracted just enough for us to remain alive as normal girls. But at the same time, the Chemical X that we gave you was only enough to bring you back to life, and not enough to give you your super powers back." Blossom finished with her explanation.
Brick, Boomer and Butch couldn't believe what they were hearing.
"You ... you mean that we're alive but powerless?" Asked Butch.
"And you three are powerless too?" Added Brick.
Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup all smiled and nodded.
"Oh ... we're sorry ... to save us you had to give up your powers."
Blossom took Brick's face in her hands. "Don't be. It's okay. There are plenty of other super heroes in the world, like Major Glory or Monkey. And besides, we really don't need our powers."
Buttercup also moved up to Butch. "Yeah, we had our share of super powered lifestyle for a decade."
Bubbles also moved over to Boomer "We're glad to be just normal girls."
With that, the six teens kissed each other lovingly.
A whole new chapter in the life of the Powerpuff Girls and the Rowdyruff Boys was just starting.

Epilogue
++++++++++++++++++++++
One week later.
Townsville Central High School.
In the school's library, Blossom and the recently inscribed Brick were doing an extra credit work for history class, and were writing something down from one of the many history books in the library.
Behind them, Mitch Mitchelson and his prank buddy Johnny walked slowly behind them with a blown up balloon and a needle.
They pinched to balloon with the needle, causing it to explode, and startling the two studying boys.
"Mitch! Quit bothering us!" Said Blossom.
"Yeah Mitch! Don't you have anything better to do?" Added Brick.
Mitch and Johnny were just laughing, "Ha ha ha ha ha! No, making fun of you is way more fun than anything else."
Suddenly, Mitch and Johnny felt a pair of hands on their shoulders.
Turning around, they saw Buttercup and Butch looking at them angrily.
"Hello there boys? Bothering my brother and his girlfriend again?" Asked Butch.
"Mitch, I guess you heard what happened to me and my sisters on the news last week, right?" Asked Buttercup.
"Hum ... about how you don't have super powers anymore?" Asked Mitch.
Buttercup nodded, "That's right. And do you know what that means?" She asked.
Mitch shook his head, he was getting worried. "Hum ... no?"
Buttercup grabbed Mitch by the collar and Butch grabbed Johnny by his collar too.
"It means that you don't have to worry about me using my super strenght or invulnerability when fighting me." Explained Buttercup.
Mitch managed to say "Uh oh." Before Buttercup and Butch gave him and Johnny the beating of a lifetime.
******************
Outside, Bubbles and Boomer were by the stream near the school. Feeding a family of ducks they found about a couple of days ago.
Ever since the girls lost their powers, the could face life with a different perspective. The perspective of a normal person.
Bubbles smiled and looked o her side at Boomer.
Their lives seemed pretty good now.
