        "Blossom, I don't feel so good," Bubbles moaned one Thursday. She was sweating profusely and she looked woozy.

        "Bubbles!" gasped Blossom, catching her baby sister just as she swooned. "Buttercup, you go on ahead to school and explain to Ms. Keane." Buttercup nodded, her worry showing on her face. Blossom took Bubbles down to the lab and tapped her father's shoulder.

        "Yaaah!" Professor Utonium jumped. He saw his redhead daughter and her blonde sister. "Shouldn't you be at school?"

        "Professor, Bubbles is sick," Blossom explained worriedly. Professor picked Bubbles up and put a thermometer in her mouth.

        "Go on to school, Blossom," he told her. She nodded and flew off. He took the thermometer out of her mouth and looked at it. "Oh my god! 145 degrees!"

        Meanwhile, at school, Blossom was being sent to help Buttercup fight Mojo Jojo. She found her tomboy sister down and out in the same condition as Bubbles. She quickly flew her 'younger' sister home and flew back to fight Mojo.

        "What did you do to them Mojo!" Blossom shrieked as she furiously punched and kicked his latest RoboJojo to no avail.

        "Mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!" Mojo cackled. "There is nnnooo cure for the virus I have infected your sisters with! They will die, and you will too!" Blossom's eyes filled with tears and she gave one more furious punt, kicking him into jail and tearing his robot apart. Then she flew back to school, where she was excused and allowed to go home when she elucidated. She told the Professor and was allowed to see her sisters one last time.

"Girls," she whispered softly. Her sisters' eyelids fluttered open.

"Blossom?" Bubbles whispered weakly. Blossom bit her lip. She couldn't bear to break the news to them. Instead…

"There is a cure. Y-you two have to say 'abracadabra' eleven times, dropping a letter each time. I-I promise you it will work," Blossom said bravely, blinking back her tears. Her hope was riding on this one chance.

"Abracadabra, abracadabr, abracadab, abracada, abracad, abraca, abrac, abra, abr, ab, a," the ailing sisters chanted together. Each time they spoke, it seemed to Blossom that a little more color came into their cheeks. She hoped with all her heart that her eyes did not deceive her.

"Hey, I feel fine!" said Buttercup happily, flying out of bed. Bubbles flew too. Blossom called for their father, who came running and tested their health. They were in the pink!
