The High Council

"All right, monkey, what's this all about?" Princess snarled. Mojo Jojo had gathered all the villains of Townsville in the old, abandoned warehouse.

"I, Mojo Jojo, have something I need to speak to you about."

"I would hope so," Him sighed, bored. "And that you didn't invite us here for other, more sick purposes."

Fuzzy laughed. "You're disgusting."

"May I have silence, please?" Mojo said. "Now! Let's establish one thing right now: We hate the Powerpuff Girls, right?"

"YES!" was the answer in unison.

"It has always been each and every one of our dreams to destroy them!"

"RIGHT!"

"However! I have learned that the Powerpuff Girls are going to be destroyed anyway, and by none of us!"

Silence. "What're y'all talkin about?" Fuzzy Lumkins finally asked.

"The St. Eva Church has plans to sacrifice them in order to open their so called 'Gate.'"

The leader of the Gangreen Gang scratched his head. "And… that's GOOD, right? Those girls will finally be history!"

Echoes of agreement came from the group.

"And then I can start a NEW group of Powerpuff Girls!" Princess gloated.

"But is it RIGHT?" Mojo asked over the noise, which promptly ceased.

"What do you mean?" Him asked. "I don't see anything wrong with it."

"But you didn't go through the history books and preacher's material about St. Eva!" Mojo declared, taking out a manilla folder. "These St. Eva weirdos are not all that they say they are. I've done research about them. They are a verrrrry bizarre group that loves human sacrifices and rituals by fire."

"Go on…"

"They thrived on destruction. Remember that city, Evrai, that Hulk says was destroyed and sank?"

"Yes……"

"That was actually an act committed by the St. Eva superiors themselves, as a ritual to please their God!"

"That's messed up!" said Butch, the Rowdyruff. (YES, they were recreated.)

Mojo pointed to a picture of a squat man with reptile eyes. "This is the founder of the religion, Habaruku. He was apparently very evil, and loved death and destruction. He often spoke to his followers about a demon that was scheduled to arrive many millenia from that time, which would fulfill the ultimate plan of destruction…"

"Which was what?" Princess asked.

Mojo's voice became very soft. "The world."

There was eerie silence, save for the sloshing of the Amoeba Boys' bodies.

Finally, Mojo spoke again. "So what we must ask ourselves is, do we contain any compassion whatsoever? Are we going to stand by and let the Powerpuff Girls be destroyed for such a purpose?"

More silence. Finally Him stood. "This is ridiculous. I'm leaving."

The others uneasily stood, and without any words, left the building, leaving Mojo plopped on a barrel, lost in thought.

"What am I to do…?"
