Disclaimers: Yeah I own the Powerpuff Girls, that's why I'm poorer than the people in shelters.
Warnings: As always there will be some cursing though as I said before I don't think my words count as curses.
Kudos to these people:
Sweety Pie 3000 - I think you forgot the Y in your name. The definitions are implanted in the fourth chap, think that you have to read it again, thanks.
Phoenix Feather - I liked the cookie, what type was it? I called it a he because well Mojo and Him gave him male features. They tried not to but they are male so that's what happened.
Hairy Gregory - I'm glad that there are not bad comments or errors in this chap. I don't like Britney Spears but it is humiliating for Buttercup to be listening to the song so that's why I used it. I don't think that there is another way for Butch to distract his friends if you think of it let me know.
Lizzy - I promise that your email will not go to waste, I just got out of school so now I have all day to write and check emails.
Haruka Kyoko - Do you write fics? I would like to read them if you do, I would like to send great reviews to your work. Thanks for all the great reviews.
Blossom - I think I'll join you in your screaming but you forgot Him and Him are way scarier than Mojo.
Don't ask - You're going to get your butt kicked. I'm telling Bruno and Wilky about you mentioning their names on the net. I hope you believe this chapter picks up with action (and I mean action in that way, joking)
Usa-lover - I don't really want to use complicated Japanese words because this is not the anime section and people may not know what they mean, thanks for the suggestion though.

"Isn't it strange
That a gift could be an
Enemy, that a privilege
Could feel like a chore
Find yourself a backdoor
That is your privilege . . ." Incubus - Privilege
"It was weird, all my thoughts just vanished when he looked at me. He seemed really cold and distant too. It was like he did not need me to show him around, like he knew everything already. The hairs on my neck were alert the whole time. And I tried so hard to read his eyes, I don't know why it should matter if I can read his eyes or not, but it just does."
The PPGs were at Miss Bellum's house. Bubbles had skipped cheerleading practice and Buttercup had skipped baseball practice. Which meant that the guys on the baseball team could actually concentrate on hitting and catching the ball today. The RRBs would be there later but they could not cut their practices so they were delayed.
"Well Blossom that shows you that you aren't the only know-it-all in this world. This guy might be way smarter than you."
"Thanks for the support Buttercup. I'm worried about why the guy was weird and your worried about my pride. Well not worried actually, just happy to see that it can be deflated. Miss Bellum can you believe he has all his classes with us?"
"Why would they just add another student like this at the end of the year?" Bubbles interjected, "Our school system usually does not work like that. I did not know that you could get into the academy classes this late in the year anyway."
Miss Bellum whom had been quiet since Blossom had related her story now spoke. "Well maybe I should tell you girls now what I have known for quite some time." The girls looked at her quizzically and sorta frowned. Miss Bellum steadied her self for she knew that what was coming was a shock.
"You all know how I got interested in magic and the such a decade ago, after I learned that the blood of ancient wiccans ran through me."
"I remember, we were like six and you tried to tell our fortunes. But then you stopped and grew quiet and said that you had to leave. Then you made us start training harder and the Professor started making harder training sessions for us." Buttercup remembered.
"Yes well, your futures were too graphic for me to tell you at that time. Now that you are all teens and part of that future is about to play out I must tell some of what I saw, to warn you. I did not see your future entirely only bits and pieces and those were brief." Miss Bellum closed her eyes and began to concentrate very hard trying to conjure up more scenes from the future. As she did the atmosphere began to change.
Inside of Miss Bellum's house thunder clouds and rain began to pour. The girls looked at each other in surprise as the immense rains drenched them. The girls looked outside and saw that nothing had changed, but inside the house a small hurricane was occurring.
"MISS BELLUM!" The girls called this out at the same time slightly frightened. Miss Bellum did not acknowledge their screams she only kept her eyes closed but she started chanting/humming. The girls stopped yelling and strained to hear the sounds that were coming out of Miss Bellum's mouth. It was sorta hard since the winds were going at 124 mph and the whistling sound that the wind made was hard to hear over. The girls wondered how Miss Bellum was still sitting and not even moving despite the force of the winds without superpowers.
Then Miss Bellum began to talk and her voice drowned out the winds though she was talking soft, almost whispering.
"In a little while perhaps later on this week you will fight one the hardest battle of your lives. I say one of the hardest because there will be more; there is always a harder battle to fight in your life. You will all learn new powers and strengths; you will also learn new weaknesses and how to control them slightly.
"This battle will be fought with someone not human, not mortal. Someone who knows feelings only of control, only of their desires and pleasures. This things power is immense and it knows of magic and of fighting power. Its mind is unstable and filled only with hurt. The name of this thing expresses violence itself.
"It will not be an easy battle; it is not guaranteed that you girls and the RRBs will win. But you must and you will have help, I will teach you some simple but powerful spells and give you extra power; some of my Wicca power. Your father will help in this also, his scientific knowledge will be greatly needed as none of you know enough magic to beat his."
Miss Bellum now turned her head to Blossom and opened her eyes. Blossom wanted to gasp but she could not because of her shock at Miss Bellum's eyes. Completely black where it was supposed to be white, this black area surrounded a pink/green swirled iris. Looking into her eyes Blossom was lost in them, reading her future, finding more meaning in them than what Miss Bellum would tell her.
"Blossom you have the gift of reading things, particularly eyes. You have been doing it more and more unconsciously over the last couple of days without realizing it. You can read people, their intentions though this power will develop gradually as it is an art. Take heed of what it tells you though common sense will sometimes lead you better than your power. And you will find that missing soul you are searching for, you will realize that it has been in front of you the whole time. You will at times have to abandon your caution and be irrational for you to win."
Miss Bellum then turned to Buttercup who realized that though she had known Miss Bellum was speaking she had spoken something illegible to Blossom and she did not know what was said. Buttercup did not have time to dwell on this as she also noticed Miss Bellum's eyes were a weird color. Her iris was red and the color green surrounded it, completely taking the white out of her eyes.
"Buttercup the fighter, your gift is unique. You have the strength of many bombs. I say bombs to express the power you have. You have inherited the power to guess an opponents next move, to see a little into their strategy. You may not always be right but you will need to decipher that when you fight. Think wisely about the new enemies strategy for you will have to think a lot when decoding his strategy and it will not be easy. Unlike Blossom you must learn to be more cautious to think things out before you act on impulse. Abandon your irrationalism at times and you will have a chance to beat this thing."
Miss Bellum now turned to Bubbles who because of fear had not even realized that Miss Bellum had been talking to her other sisters. Now Bubbles did look at Miss Bellum and she gasped at her eyes not hiding her fear. Miss Bellum's iris was surrounded by blue dotted yellow, while the iris itself was yellow striped with blue.
"Bubbles you are the sane one, the one who does not like to fight. You will be the voice of reason in this battle, the halt and think about this voice. You will be the one to keep everyone together when the pressure cracks. Your power was expressed to you last night, was it not? Your dreams foretell the future, much like my powers. You will never remember all the parts of these prophesying dreams, but as you use your powers more you will be able to call the scenes together to piece them together to figure out what you are seeing. You will have to abandon your fear of fighting for it will save you when your kind words will not. Yet keep your sweetness for it may be the way into a cold heart."
Now Miss Bellum closed her eyes completely and began to talk to all the girls in general.
"You all have my blessing and full strength in this fight. The RRBs also have their special powers; they are physically stronger than you. This will help a lot, their endurance is more too though you may be able to match them at certain times in this. They will not pass out from pain, which can be a curse or a blessing depending on the situation. Blossom I impart upon you the power to heal as you can see who will need this help the most."

"Practice is really unnecessary for us. I don't see why we go."
"Unlike you Butch we have some humility, I don't know about you but I lower my power when I play against normal people." Brick admitted.
"I agree with both of you. I can practice at home with my superpowers low and then I can use them low when I wrestle. But we need to be a practice to learn our team plays and to find out information," Boomer put in.
"Fine I agree. I thought that we would be at Ma's house by now it never takes this long normally."
"Maybe because we are walking Butch, we usually fly." Boomer said.
"Well let's turn on our after-burners and go."
"Why the rush Butch?" Brick questioned, "In a rush to see a certain red-head?"
"Who you Brick? Why would I rush if I'm seeing you now?"
"Not me baka, Bloss. Why don't you just ask her out? We know you were there last night, we heard you sneak in this morning. Better not let Mom ever hear you doing it."
"I never said I liked her, and besides she does not like me like that."
"That was evident by the black eye," Boomer laughed and Brick joined him. Butch scowled and pretended to be pissed. "Seriously she lets you sleep in her bed but she does not like you? That's weird. Maybe she does but she doesn't know it yet. Like how Cherry was with me, when she would flirt with me unknowingly."
"Red probably doesn't even know what flirting is."
"You may be underestimating her Butch, you seem to do that with some girls." Brick teased.
"May I remind you who gets the most chicks out of all of us, I do not underestimate women, and they underestimate me. They see the handsome green eyes and see a softy not a devil."
"You know what?" Boomer asked, "I think Blossom might be able to tame that so called devil."
"Cute Boomer, but how 'bout I tell your 'Cherry' that someone is crushin' on you. Someone named Gwinnett Braxton." Butch taunted.
"Long as I don't touch her then there is no problem. Unlike Brick my girl would not go out and kill Gwinnett for just looking."
"Hey, Buttercup is not like that . . ." Brick's brothers just stared at him. "Never mind."
^_+
As the PPGs came out of Miss Bellum's house they tried to dry off.
"We could power up and dry off but then out clothes would be puffy and stick out and Buttercup's dress is short and it really does not need to rise up anymore."
"Geez Blondie it's your fault I have this thing on."
"Yeah, I know," Bubbles giggled. Miss Bellum waved at the girl's antics and then looked above her head to wave in the sky.
"What you laughing at Cherry?" Boomer asked as he and his brothers landed.
"Nothing, why are you guys so late?"
"Why are you guys so wet?" Butch questioned when he looked at them.
"Hey don't complain Butch, I'm not. Do you see Buttercup?" Brick whispered.
"Forget Buttercup look at Bubbles," came Boomer's whisper.
"Whatever, I'm trying not too." Butch grumbled he was trying really hard to keep his gaze of Blossom.
"You know that they are talking about us," Buttercup whispered.
"Well we are wet Buttercup, and our clothes are sorta clingy so we do look sorta weird." Bubbles replied.
"Speak for yourselves, my clothes are not clingy."
Buttercup snickered at Blossom. "Blossom your shirt was already tight imagine how it looks now, on top of that your ass was noticeable with the pants dry imagine how it looks now."
Blossom blushed but composed herself. "Well you two need to worry more about how your going to clamp your boyfriend's mouths shut. Oh and your headlights are on - really on."
"Worry about your own Blossom."
"Shut up Bubbles," Blossom growled. "I'm out of here, I have to meet Princess for dinner. You two can deal with the ogling eyes."
"Be careful Bloss, Princess is real sneaky. You know how she was when we were kids."
Blossom nodded her acknowledgement of Buttercup's warning and began to fly away. "Bye Miss Bellum thanks for everything. Goodbye hentais I think you all will need a cold shower when you get home."
"Hello boys, I am so glad to see that you all greeted me respectively." Miss Bellum joked.
"Gomen Mom," all three said not really looking at her.
Miss Bellum smiled and turned around to walk back in the house. "See you later Buttercup and Bubbles. If you need any more advice just come by I will always have more visions to tell you as time goes on. See you later boys."
"Bye Mom," they chorused.
"So Cherry is that a new look? Cause I like it," Boomer whispered when Miss Bellum had walked in the house.
Bubbles rolled her eyes. " NO it isn't. Besides you shouldn't be looking anyway." Boomer grinned but lowered his head and looked away. Brick followed because unlike Bubbles Buttercup wouldn't just talk she would probably knock him out.
"Kami-damned hentais. I can't believe you two, trying to ogle goodies. You guys should go talk to your Mom, she told us some really creepy things. On top of that you all should talk to Blossom about the new kid she meet today. She was really creped out about him," Buttercup said.
"What do you mean creped out?" Butch asked.
Before Buttercup could answer Brick cut in. " I walked to the office with her and I saw her meet this guy. She turned really pale when she saw him and that is weird even for Bloss. I mean I guess a lot of girls would say he was cute I don' know but Bloss acted like he was going to attack her any moment. And the way he looked at her was weird like she was a possession and then he looked like he wanted to kill me when I touched her shoulders to ask her if she was okay."
"Blossom left all that out when she told us about what happened," Bubbles said.
"You know how Bloss is Cherry, she likes to handle things herself and think over her problems before she presents them on others. You know how she is always fixing up someone else's love life but never her own? That's probably what she is doing with this."
"Oh Butch you might have some competition for her," Buttercup teased.
"What are you talking about BC? Whom am I competing for?"
"Don't play stupid Butch, we all know you're crushin' on her, but besides the point you really do have some competition for her. Remember the guy from last night, Alex? Well he is this girl named Sephora's brother and he saw Blossom again today and he wants to take her to dinner Saturday night. And while Blossom may not admit it she is in frenzy about what to wear tomorrow. After all she doesn't know how to shop for those kind of clothes so she is really nervous," Buttercup explained.
"I don't see why she would want to go out with him, he seemed like a first class asshole."
"You sound jealous Butch," Bubbles teased.
"Maybe I am," Butch admitted before he flew off shocking everyone else.
"Does anyone besides me think he's trippin'? Boomer asked. Everyone raised his or her hands in agreement.

"I could have flown Princess, I really did not need you to send that limo to my house," Blossom complained as she sat down to 'talk' to Princess at the restaurant table. Princess smiled at Blossom acknowledging her the way that rich people commonly do.
"Hello Blossom, I am quite happy to see that you're here. For a second I thought you would not come, it is almost 7:30."
"Gomen about that, but I could not find what to wear. When I asked the driver where he was supposed to take me I had to run back upstairs and change, I was dressed a whole lot casual then this."
Princess took in Blossom's attire and it seemed to her that Blossom could not dress fancy at all. Her clothes looked casual to Princess but then Princess had on a royal blue sleeveless dress, which stopped at her knees but had a slit that went up her right thigh. 3-inch royal blue colored pumps completed the set along with an elegant upswept French braid and tendrils of hair falling in her face.
Blossom on the other hand was wearing black semi-dressy pants and an olive green shirt that was criss-crossed in the back with elbow-length sleeves. She had kept her pigtails but had twisted them into separate buns. She still had her bang but it was straighter and less frizzy than before. She looked like she had not ironed her clothes; Princess chuckled slightly at this revelation.
Blossom blushed in embarrassment, how often does a criminal get one over on a hero? "I really don't dress up a lot so I didn't know what to wear. But it's better than the jeans I was going to wear, I didn't even know I had these clothes."
"I doesn't look bad, but usually when people come to this restaurant people dress up like I am. Would you like to order now or later, we can eat now and talk later, I've worked up quite an appetite so I would prefer to eat now, but it is up to you."
"We can eat now, I'm quite hungry, but I warn you I eat a lot." Princess turned around and beckoned for a nearby waiter to come over. Princess placed her order and then Blossom did so also.
"That waiter is ours for the evening so anything you need just call him over. He's only serving our table so we should not have to wait long for anything," Princess informed. A silence soon fell on over the table and for once Blossom began to wish she were a conversational person.
"So how was Sweden?" Blossom asked.
Princess eyes lit up at the memory and Blossom looked into them reading the good feelings in them. But also in Princess' eyes there was some hurt and pain. "It is so beautiful there. It's green and filled with grass and you can actually breath. There are some poverty stricken-parts and those parts are dreary and filled with sickness. But other than that it is so pretty there.
"I stayed in a very pretty boarding house. I didn't want to live on the school campus there were too many rules and some of the girls I would have boarded with would have caused problems for me so I had my own cottage. I even rented out 3 of my rooms to different boarders. A lot of the girls there were jealous and I don't mean to sound conceited when I say that. I am almost the richest girl in the world and the all the girls there were from affluent families.
"I really did not have a lot of friends there or I would have been in a lot of trouble. I was in a drama club briefly but I quit. I kept getting lead roles and the girls started threatening me. I couldn't turn to my dad for help in those cases because then the other girls would have found out and I would have been bullied more."
Blossom had been staring at Princess' face the whole time to see if she was telling the truth and Blossom was shocked to find out that she was. Blossom had rarely been that powerless in her life and when she had she had had her sisters there with her to help her. She had never been alone with no one to turn to when she had lost her powers. She was about to say something to Princess but then their food came and they began to eat.
5 Courses Later
"That was better than I thought it would be. I usually don't eat fancy food because it tastes funny but this food did not taste half bad," Blossom admitted.
"You really eat a lot, I don't know where it goes but you really do." Blossom wanted to tell her it went straight to her butt, but Blossom wasn't on that type of level with her yet. "The food is good because my dad owns this restaurant and I handle this part of his business in food so I direct them to make food that taste real and will appeal to teenagers. I've done pretty good in directing the chiefs to cook and because of that business is blooming."
"Well I'm happy to hear that you have some type of joy in your life. I'm going to be frank with you Princess, the fact that you invited me here has creped me out a little. I know you're telling the truth about everything but it is always hard to trust a former enemy."
"I'm glad you came despite your misgivings. But if you began to trust the Rowdyruff Boys than I pray that in your heart you can find it to trust me. I don't know how to really prove to you that I am no longer power hungry but I do know how I can start."
"How?"
"Well I found out where the robot came from that attacked you. Apparently it was stolen several days ago from a factory that belongs to my dad. There were absolutely no clues left and my dad owns one of the best Crime Scene Investigator teams in the country."
"I watch that show CSI do you? I know it has nothing to do with it but I can't help but talk about it. I think that Warrick is so cute. Okay I'm babbling, go on."
"That's alright. But if you and your friends want to check out the factory I will gladly give you the address of it. You were not told about the robbery because my dad did not want the public to know one of his 'fortress' factories could be penetrated. It's the whole publicity thing and I don't mind if things are kept quiet as long as the family is not embarrassed. I know I sound stuck-up but this is how I was raised."
"I'm really sorry about how things have been going for you and if you are really trying to turn over a new leaf then I will help you to the best of my ability. But I have to tell you only you can really make yourself truly good, I can only help but the entire process is up to you."
"I thank you for you help. I seem to be thanking a lot of people these past couple of days which is more than I've done in my life."
"Thank you for the food Princess it was good, but I need to get home now, I have city patrol first thing in the morning and I need to rest. Thank you once again. Oh yeah, before I forget Butch told me to ask you do you have his beeper number. He assumed because you have my cell phone number you would have all out numbers, do you?"
"Actually I do, I do have numerous contacts. But tell him I won't call it unless he wants me too." Princess opened the purse she had with her and took out a piece of paper and a pen and wrote a number on it. "Tell him to call me if it is okay with you."
"Why wouldn't it be?" Blossom asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Well both your sister's are together with a RRB and so I assumed that you would be with Butch."
"How do you know that? Buttercup and Brick just got together only a few people know that."
"It's the same way I know your cell number, I have connections. I didn't mean to pry but I needed to catch up on the things that were happening. I won't do it anymore but I would like to apologize again for finding out information without your consent. Goodbye Blossom it was fun and I would like to do it again."
"Sayonara Princess, I'll talk to you later. You can call me since you have my cell, and I don't care what it's about. Like you said I would like to trust you and become a friend," Blossom called as she walked out the restaurant.
Princess turned back to her table with a smile on her face and ordered a glass of champagne from her waiter. She toasted herself on her recent accomplishments alone.
^_^
"Okay so I need some coffee or something but I'll be fine," Blossom told herself. She was still tired because she had gone to sleep late last night. The crook she was throwing into the jail van looked at her like she was crazy because she was talking to herself. "Okay if the crook thinks I'm crazy then I must stop talking to myself," she said out loud, "never mind."
Blossom threw the crook into the van and leaned against the door. It was only 5:30 in the morning and she was exhausted. She rubbed her eyes and thought about her dinner last night with Princess. Maybe she had been to eager with her offer of friendship and maybe she had acted sort of dizzy but she couldn't help it if she had been nervous. When Butch had been with her she had acted real in charge with Princess but when he had not been there she felt out of control. Maybe she did need mental health if she couldn't handle an old nemesis.
! _!
"Boomer I have to go on patrol in a little while so I'll call you when I get finished. I need to meet Bloss she has been up since 3:00 this morning and it's like 8:00 now . . . I hate morning patrol but I feel bad for her also . . . What do you mean if she had called Butch he would have stayed with her . . . I don't think it's Butch who doesn't feel in love, I think it's Bloss, you know how she is . . . I'll try to talk to her, that's why I'm leaving early to go on patrol so we can talk . . . Okay I love you too, bye Boomie."
Bubbles hung up the phone and grabbed her purse before flying out her window. 'The professor never really did teach us to use doors,' she thought. Taking out her cell phone she dialed Blossom's cell and alerted her she was coming.
"I'll be there soon . . . What corner are you on again . . . Are you sure you want coffee what about hot chocolate . . . A lot of sugar and a little bit of milk . . . Sure I'll remember . . . I know you're tired . . . Alright Bye."
&_^
"Doomo Bubbles, you don't know how much I appreciate this." Blossom had wolfed down the snack that Bubbles had given her and was feeling a lot better.
"It's been really quiet, I had a couple of robberies but that was it. Why are you here so early?" Blossom questioned.
"Well," Bubbles began nervously," I wanted to talk to you about the fact that you don't have a boyfriend. I mean Bloss you're a normal healthy girl, attractive as hell, and you have a great personality. I know that there are tons of guys chasing you, why don't you at least have a play mate or something."
Blossom blushed before answering, "Well I was thinking of calling Alex but I don't know anymore."
Bubbles swept her eyes to the side as she tried to think of a way to steer the conversation towards Butch and Blossom. "Why would you want to seriously call a human anyway? I'm not trying to sound prejudiced or anything but we do have a stamina that cannot be matched by humans don't you think you should try out someone with your stamina?"
"Well, I suppose but the only person I know single with chemical X is Bu-! Heck NO."
"Why not Bloss? He's cute and he's strong and he is really nice."
"I know all of that but I mean we're really great friends. What if it doesn't work out and we end up hating each other? Besides Butch likes Princess and she likes him so they might get together. I don't mind being alone."
"Bloss you can't go through life being anti-social and against love. I don't know what happened to make you hate love but you had better tell me if you have a problem or something you need to over come that BC and me could help you fix."
"I don't have a sin-"
* BOOM *
"What on earth was that?" Bubbles asked after the explosion had gone off.
"I don't know but I think we had better go check it out," Blossom suggested. "I really doubt we need to call them I'm pretty sure everyone in Townsville heard that noise." As Blossom and Bubbles flew towards the crime scene the assessed the damage that had occurred to Townsville, it was going to take a lot of cleaning to get the town back to normal.
* BOOM *
"There it goes again Blossom, whatever that is it's powerful." That blast had knocked the girls back a little and they had had to struggle to keep flying straight. They did not have to fly much farther to find the culprit when the came upon a blue-haired boy flying in midair.
"O mi kami Bubbles, that's the new guy at school that I showed around." Bubbles said nothing and Blossom looked around to find her falling to the ground unconscious.
"BUBBLES!" Blossom screamed as she rushed to get her sister. The blue-haired boy turned his head when he heard the scream and smirked. With a wave of his hand he made Bubbles float over to him and he turned his head to smile at a shocked Blossom.
"Hello Blossom, I have your sister right here. If you want her come get her."
"I don't know who you think you are," Blossom said as she flew towards the boy, "but you have picked the wrong puff to mess with today." Blossom reached her sister and was about to grab her when she was pulled away.
'What the –' she thought.
"You said I could have her if I flew and got her," Blossom argued. She was now standing in front of the boy and she was trying not to look in his eyes.
"Did I mention you would have to fight me to get her?"
"I don't care what I have to do, I want my sister back."
"Well then let's go." The blue haired boy waved his hand leaving Bubbles to float in the air. Blossom looked at her quickly but dropped into a fighting stance along with the boy.
"Oh yes and Blossom learn my name. It is Basher you should remember it, after all I remembered your pretty name. You will soon be screaming it in pain and maybe in pleasure if you prove up to my standards."
Blossom involuntarily shuddered. "I hope I fail your standards then." Flying quickly but swiftly at him Blossom threw a punch that completely missed.
'Okay so he's fast,' she thought. Blossom sensing him above kicked out her leg and felt her foot connect with flesh. 'Gotcha'.
"Not bad, for a girl." Basher then grabbed Blossom's foot and twisted it causing her to spin. As she tried to stop he flew around and punched her in her gut 10 times in 4 seconds. Spitting up blood Blossom stopped spinning and wiped her mouth grinning.
"Not bad, for a jerk."
"Feisty just what I like. Are you ready to fight again?"
"Not without back up she isn't." This voice came from behind her and Blossom recognized it immediately. Butch, Buttercup, Boomer, and Brick were behind her puzzled but ready to fight, especially when they saw the blood on Blossom's lip.
"Then bring it Butch and make sure you know what you're doing."
"Watch it Butch, he's stronger than he looks." Blossom called as Butch flew at Basher.
"Did that asshole do that?" Brick asked pointing to the blood on Blossom's lip.
"He punched me in my stomach 10 times and I coughed up blood. My stomach hurts like you know what, but I'm okay for now. But we have to worry about Bubbles right now. I was trying to get her but he stopped me. She fainted when we got here and we need to get her."
"I'll do it, and then I'll kill the bastard for hurting her and you," Boomer growled.

Not a cliffhanger but what can you do? Ja.
