Powerpuff Girls: Shattered Reality
Epilogue
May 28, 2015
Arlington National Cemetery, just outside of Washington D.C., USA
It was a beautiful day. Only a few small puffs of clouds floated in the serene sky, and a couple of birds were singing in a nearby tree.
Bubbles sighed. A lot had happened in the twelve years since the end of the most destructive war in history. First, the Earth's climate was finally recovering from the nuclear war. Tempuratures all over the planet were slowly returning to normal, and the winters were no longer deadly, save in the extreme north and south ends of the planet.
China's Communist government had fallen after the America Weather Machine blasted Beijing back to the Stone Age. The Nationalists had moved back from Taiwan and had by now made some real progress in rebuilding China.
Germany, Russia, and the United States had formed a mutual self-defense pact, bringing the three mightiest militaries on Earth into a single alliance.
In the Middle East, forces under the control of Germany's junior partner, Israel, crushed a revolt in the occupied Arab nations during the summer of 2010. The area was soon brought back under Axis control.
The United Kingdom slowly regained its status on the world stage, and by 2010 was a major member of the Peacekeeping Alliance. It maintained a peaceful, yet wary relationship with Eire.
Bubbles looked over her shoulder, around the trunk of the tree she was leaning on. The funeral service was still dragging on. 'How are they dragging up so much to talk about when she was a secret agent?' Bubbles thought.
She had changed, as well. No longer an empty-headed kid, the years had done their work. All of her 5-foot, 10-inch frame was muscular, and many would call her beautiful. Much of her distinguishing Powerpuff features had been muted or had simply gone away, like the large eyes and lack of a nose. She smiled sadly. Of course, it wasn't like she got much chance to date, being a triple agent for America, Germany, and Russia was demanding enough.
She was also the last of her family. The war had claimed her father and Blossom, and now they were laying Buttercup to rest. The radiation from the British H-Bomb had increased Buttercup's powers too much. Her body had simply collapsed under the strain.
Hopefully, the same would not happen to her. Her powers had increased as she aged, to the point were she had to stop using most of them, although that was more from being a spy than that they were too dangerous.
She looked behind her again. The casket was finally being lowered into the hallowed gravesite. Bubbles smiled, tears tracing thin lines down her face. "G'bye, sis." she whispered.
Had anyone been watching her, they would have been quite surprised at what happened next. Her form slowly fuzzed and became indistinct, then vanished altogether as five F-25 Hawks blasted overhead in the 'missing man' formation.
The titanic sonic boom, a combination of the one from the planes and the one from Bubbles, shook the area, knocking people down and fluttering the tree branches. You could almost say Buttercup went out with a bang.
By the time her sister's coffin was buried, Bubbles was already deep inside Russia, working on her next assignment.
THE END
And now, for what you've all been waiting for....
