NOTE: Anything having to do with the PPG, has nothing, what so ever, to do
with me.
Um, I guess I should start by saying that...I'm an idiot. No, it's true! Don't try to argue with me and try to make me feel better. Because I know I am. I didn't even know what spoilers were!! Do'h! Thanks for mentioning it in your last review, Dooly, otherwise I never would have figured it out! Well, I probably WOULD have...eventually. But remember...this IS my first fic. I'll get the hang of all da' "story lingo".
Aaaaaanywhozits...enough about me...and my complaining...on with the Newby's story! Enjoy!! ^_^

Lost Promises, Found Friendships

Chapter4: Confusion
[SCENE: The camera is now viewing the outside of the home of the PPG. It is in the afternoon a few days later. It is beautiful, peaceful and quiet...until the silence is broken-]
BUBBLES: (Off camera) Can so!
BUTTERCUP: (Also off camera) Can not!
[-by sibling rivalry]
[The scene shows the inside of the girls' room, where we see Bubbles and Buttercup, arguing again. The camera pans back and fourth as each of them speak]
BUBBLES: Can so!
BUTTERCUP: Can not!
BUBBLES: (Angrier) Can so infinity!
BUTTERCUP: (Also angrier) Can not infinity times two!
BUBBLES: Hey! You can't do that!
BUTTERCUP: Can to!
BUBBLES: Can not!
[The camera pans towards the door as Blossom float into the room. She shows an annoyed expression]
BLOSSOM: WHAT IS GOING ON IN HERE!?
[The two stop arguing. They turn to look at her and immediately begin to explain the situation]
BUBBLES: (To Blossom) Well, I was just sitting on the bed, reading, not doing anything wrong-
BUTTERCUP: Liar! You were sitting on MY side of the bed!
BUBBLES: Would you pa-lease let me finish!?
[Buttercup folds her arms, closes her eyes and sticks her nose in the air in the fashion of Princess Morebucks. This also leads to her sticking her tongue out at Bubbles. Bubbles pretends not to notice]
BUBBLES: (Calmly) Thank you. (To Blossom) Now, as I was saying. I was just sitting there on OUR bed... (Shoots glare at Buttercup)...reading one of my favorite stories. Ya' know, the one about the Lion and the Mouse-
BUTTERCUP: You were reading THAT!? (Sticks tongue out again) Yuck! That story is so lame. Like a lion would actually let a mouse go after it promises to "return the favor", (uses...um...hands, to make quote signs) whatever that means. I mean, come on! How fairy tale can ya' get?
BUBBLES: (Gasps) It is NOT a fairy tale! Something like that could really happen!
BUTTERCUP: (Grins) Besides, you probably weren't even really reading it. You were just looking at the pictures again, weren't you? Tsh. You're such a baby.
BUBBLES: (Angry, throwing arms in air) I AM NOT A BABY! And so what if I was, huh? I mean the pictures are really pretty and-
BLOSSOM: (Off camera) STOP!
[The two stop arguing and turn to look at her in surprise]
BLOSSOM: (Takes a deep breath, she is now on camera) Now then.this is obviously another ridiculous, (To herself) not to mention pointless, (To others) argument that can be easily resolved. (Turns to Buttercup) Buttercup, do you even know what the story of the lion and the mouse symbolizes?
BUTTERCUP: (Crosses arms again, mumbles) Like it matters.
[Buttercup sees Blossom glaring at her out of the corner of her eye. She gives an exasperated sigh]
BUTTERCUP: It means that if you don't eat your food right away, it starts talking your ear off so that you won't want to eat it!
BUBBLES: (Gasps...again) It does not!
BUTTERCUP: (Turns to face Bubbles) Does to!
BUBBLES: Does not!
[Blossom slaps her forehead, sighing in frustration]
BLOSSOM: Alright, alright! That's good! (To Bubbles) Bubbles what do YOU think it means?
[Both look at her. Bubbles is smiling while Buttercup rolls her eyes as her younger sibling gives her definition of the childish story]
BUBBLES: (Confident) It actually means that if you do something nice for someone, then they'll be nice back, right? (Still smiling sweetly)
BUTTERCUP: Ha! (Points and laughs at Bubbles) Yeah right! You're more of a baby than I thought you were! That can't really happen!
BLOSSOM: Actually, Buttercup, Bubbles is right. Well, that particular story could stand for a number of things, but it mainly says that one good deed deserves another.
BUTTERCUP: Okay, wait a minute! So...you're tellin' me that...ANYONE can do something good in return for something, uh, "nice" being done for them?
BUBBLES: (Puffing up proudly) Yep! Even Mojo Jojo has his moments, ya' know!
[Buttercup pauses to think about this. After a moment she smiles evilly having thought of something smart to say in order to prove them both wrong]
BUTTERCUP: ANYONE, huh...? I bet I could think of someone that would never, and I'm mean NEVER, do anything nice for anyone! Not even to return to a favor!
BLOSSOM: (Humoring her) Okay, Buttercup. Who could possibly be that self- centered? I mean, Bubbles is right. Even Mojo has been known to return a favor. (Thinks about this) Well...maybe not often...but it has been known to happen...even to the worst of us!
BUBBLES: I don't see how you could. Even if it's not a good deed, they'd have to return the favor somehow...even if it IS something bad, (Frowns) it would still count as giving something back in return for what someone does to you...I think...
[Bubbles has gone into deep thought]
[Buttercup rolls her eyes at her, and instead decides to just outsmart Blossom]
BUTTERCUP: Well...what about...Fuzzy?
BLOSSOM: What about him?
BUTTERCUP: There's no way that Lumpkins could possibly return a favor. Good or bad, and you know it!
[Bubbles, at this point, has just snapped back into reality]
BUBBLES: He has too! He can't possibly be that bad!
BUTTERCUP: (Smirking) Oh yeah, Bubble head? Name ONE thing that he's done in order to return some kind of favor for us or for Townsville? (Pauses) And family doesn't count!
[Bubbles is about to speak, but stops, realizing that family was the only thing that she could come up with. Other than that, she can't think of anything on Fuzzy's behalf]
BUTTERCUP: Ha! I told you! I'm right! (Starts singing) I'm right, I'm right, I-I am ri-ight! (She now starts doing a ridiculous little dance while chanting this a few times)
BLOSSOM: (To Bubbles) Well, I hate to say it, but...she has got a point.
BUBBLES: (About to cry) But...but he could if...if he wanted to...and if he really tried-
[Buttercup, who is still psyched about the idea of out-smarting her sisters for once, is still chanting over her victory]
BUTTERCUP: (While dancing) No way! Not Fuzzy! In order to get something out of him, you'd probably have to have a gun to his head, or something. (Stops dancing, but laughs instead) And who could possibly be stupid enough to threaten Fuzzy Lumpkins with a gun...or ANYTHING for that matter!?
BUBBLES: (Sniffling) I guess...
BLOSSOM: (Sighs) Fine. You're right, were wrong. Happy? Can we stop talking about this now, please?
BUTTERCUP: (Talks in a baby voice) Oh, whats a matta, Red? You can dish it out but you can't take da' pain, can ya? Po' widdo Bwossom!
[Blossom is about to start another argument when the hotline begins to buzz]
ALL: The Hotline!
[Blossom flies over and answers it, relieved to be out of another fight with Buttercup]
BLOSSOM: Yes Mayor?...Oh, hi Miss Bellum...uh-hu...(eyes widen) What?...But how...(there is a short pause)Are you sure that...(shows confused expression) uh-hu...yeah, um, okay we're on it.
[She hangs up the phone and turns to face her sisters. She still shows a look of confusion]
BUBBLES: (After another pause) Well, what did she say?
[Buttercup, who has now totally forgotten about her pointless victory over Blossom, flies excitedly into the air]
BUTTERCUP: (With enthusiasm) Yeah! What've we got this time? Monsters?
[Blossom shakes her head 'no']
BUBBLES: Oh, oh! I know! (Raises hand, floating into air beside Buttercup) Is it a fire or a flood or anything bad like that?
[Blossom shakes her head again. She's still at a loss for words at the moment, obviously]
BUBBLES: (Lowers hand, sadly) Oh...
BUTTERCUP: Hey! Then that would mean it's a villain up to no good! Alright! I hope it's Mojo this time. (Makes fist, punches other hand) I could use a good workout!
BLOSSOM: No...no, it's...not Mojo...
[She scratches her head. She is finding this very difficult to explain]
BUBBLES&BUTTERCUP: (Annoyed) Then who!?
BLOSSOM: Well...I guess it's...its' Fuzzy, but-
BUTTERCUP: (Kicking the air) Ah, Man! Not Fuzzy! He doesn't count as a real villain! He's just a push over! (To herself aloud) How's a girl supposed to get a real workout when there aren't any good villains worth beating up?
BUBBLES: Yeah, he's only mean 'cause he doesn't have any friends. (Sad) Poor Fuzzy.
BUTTERCUP: (Rolls eyes) Whatever. Let's just go kick his butt and get it over with.
[She flies toward the windows, Bubbles close behind]
BLOSSOM: (Off camera) No!
[The two stop and turn to face their leader, shocked]
[Buttercup, who is getting tired of waiting around while there is havoc being wreaked, floats down beside Blossom while Bubbles stays afloat by the windows]
BUTTERCUP: Waddaya mean, no!? (Crosses arms) Is it Fuzzy Lumpkins or isn't it?
BLOSSOM: Well...uh...sorta. All I know is that we need to meet the Mayor and Miss Bellum in the forest.
[She flies up beside Bubbles as Buttercup follows]
BLOSSOM: Miss Bellum can explain this better than I can. Let's go!
[She zooms out the window, followed by the other two, who are now just as confused as their sibling]
[The camera fades to black, ending the scene]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, I finally updated. Yippee!! Yeah, I know how "excited" you all are to finally have another chapter done. Especially when I finally include the girls in it! But hopefully I can get some others posted before I lose my enthusiasm in this story. I have it all in my head. The only problem is getting to a computer with some more time on my hands!!
TTFN ;)
