I don't own the Powerpuff girls or any related characters. I do own Leviathan and the six dark puffs.
After the Utoniums drive off, the puff that had been hiding in the bushes steps out. She wears a long sleeved green shirt, blue jeans, and white sneakers. She paces back and forth nervously, biting her fingernails. Finally she stops, takes a deep breath and vanishes with the sound of rushing wind.
In an Endless VoidThe puff appears on a large rock floating in an endless void. She looks up at the shadowed throne on the opposite end and gulps.
"I'm home daddy," The figure in the throne looks away from the images floating in the void and grins at the puff.
"Oh my dear Bomb! How was your little trip to Earth, dear?" he says in a falsetto. Bomb rubs her arm and looks down at the ground, digging into it with her foot. The figure on the throne can tell there's something wrong. "Why Bomb, what's wrong?" Bomb gulps again and looks up at him.
"Th-Th-They know where we are. They were in Townsville, they're trying to find where we are so they can k-k-kill us," The figure in the throne leans forward, revealing none other than Him! Him scratches his chin and gulps. After choosing his words carefully, and making sure he keeps all of the fear out of his voice, he turns back to his daughter.
"…They won't find us. I've been planning this for far too long, I'm not about to let him beat us. Go get your sisters…we'll discuss how we're going to handle this," Bomb nods.
"Okay Daddy," She turns and walks to the edge of the floating rock. She takes a step over the edge and completely vanishes.
On Another Rock in the VoidBomb appears on a new rock. This one is clearly a bedroom. It has a bed in the center on the top part, a dresser, a nightstand next to the bed, a stereo, a TV with several videogame stations connected to it, and a computer in the corner. Lying on the bed, on her stomach, is a puff with long green hair in a high ponytail. She is wearing a schoolgirl uniform, with a white top and blue skirt, and glasses cover her pretty blue eyes. She dangles her bare feet off the edge of her bed, while her attention is completely focused on the Gameboy she is playing.
Bomb grins impishly and rakes her fingernails down the puff's bare feet. The puff jumps and squeals, dropping her Gameboy. Bomb jumps on her back and begins tickling her sides.
"Hiya Battly! Whatcha doin?" Battle shrieks and starts trying to roll away from Bomb, all the while laughing her head off. She finally rolls over and immediately attacks Bomb's ribs. Bomb squeals and begins laughing, but continues her own tickling attack on Battle. The two continue their tickle fight for a few minutes, before they both stop. Still laughing they hug each other, Bomb sliding off Battle onto the bed beside her. Battle takes off her glasses and wipes her eyes, still giggling a little. Bomb smiles at her sister and waits for her to regain her composure. Battle wipes off her glasses and puts them back on, and then turns to Bomb.
"Hiya Bomby, what's up?" she asks. Bomb's smile fades and she gulps.
"When I was visiting earth today…I saw Blaze and Blood…" Battle's face becomes pale.
"D-D-Do th-th-they know we're here?" Bomb shakes her head.
"They know we're connected to Townsville, but they don't know how to get here. Daddy wants to see all of us so we can talk about what we're gonna do," Battle relaxes a little, then goes to a door that is on the edge of her "room". She opens it revealing a closet that is strange because the door is just that, a door. It isn't connected to anything. She grabs a pair of sandals and puts them on.
"Okay…good luck telling Belial," Bomb turns pale and grins nervously at Battle.
"You're not REALLY gonna make me go into Belial's room alone, are you!" Battle gulps.
"I'm not going back in there again! You remember what she did to me last time!" says Battle, her voice now shaking.
"I can't go in Belial's room by myself!" replies Bomb, whose voice is also shaking. Battle swallows the lump forming in her throat. She can still feel every second of the torture Belial put her through. Bomb's eyes are watering, and she's shaking. "Please Battly, don't make me go in there by myself," Battle finally caves and nods.
"Okay…I'll go with you…" Bomb hugs her tightly. Neither of them can tell you that they hate Belial. They love her…but only because she is their sister. They both feel terrible for being so terrified of their "big" sister, but they can't change the way they feel. Belial scares them almost as much as the other three Darkpuffs do.
They both walk to the edge of Battle's room and gather their courage before taking another step and vanishing into the void.
On Another Rock in the VoidThey appear on a third rock. This one is also clearly a bedroom. There is a bed in one corner, with straps made of insanely strong material on the headboard and footboard. There is a bookshelf with tons of magazines and movies on it, all of them inappropriate for kids the Darkpuffs' age. There is a computer in one corner with a desktop image depicting a woman in ticklish agony, and a TV on an entertainment center positioned for perfect viewing from the bed. On the TV at the moment is the Utonium Household, specifically focused on Blossom who is apparently having a nightmare of some sort. There is a stereo on top of the dresser, which is currently playing Devil's Dance by Metallica.
Bomb and Battle look around nervously, but can't see any sign of Belial.
"Sh-She's not here, let's just get out of here before she gets back and finds us in here," whispers Battle. Bomb nods and the two begin backing up, only to run into something around their size. Both of them shriek and jump, but are yanked back down by someone. Belial puts her arms around her sisters' shoulders and grins devilishly at them.
"Well, well, well, what are my dear baby sisters doing in MY room?" Bomb and Battle are trembling, and Battle is just about to start crying. Belial slips her arm off Battle's shoulder and around her waist. Battle whimpers and tries to pull away. Belial tightens her grip on Battle and begins tickling her side. Battle shrieks and begins laughing and trying to get away. Belial wraps her other arm around Bomb and begins tickling her ribs. Both of her sisters shriek with laughter and try to get away, having no luck against Belial's much superior strength. "What's the matter? You came to see me, so obviously you wanted to play with me," Battle's glasses fall off while she's thrashing to get away from Belial. Bomb isn't nearly as ticklish as Battle, but at the same time Belial knows exactly what she's doing and has Bomb laughing and struggling just as hard as Battle. "If you didn't come here to play with me, what did you come here for, hmmm?" asks Belial in a condescending tone. Bomb tries to get control long enough to tell her, but can't stop laughing. Finally she finds her voice just long enough to shriek out a reply.
"DaddywantstoseeusbecausetheyknowwereconnectedtoTOWNSVILLE!" she shrieks and goes back laughing hysterically. Belial continues tickling them for a few more minutes then lets go of them and shoves them to the ground. They lie there giggling and hiccupping for a few minutes, trying to regain their composure.
"Well you two had better get back to Daddy before I decide I'm not through with you," they both scramble to their feet and run past Belial out of the room, Battle picking up her glasses on the way. Belial grins and sits down on her bed, watching Blossom roll around and mutter in her sleep. "I'm so not through with you yet, I made you a promise and I intend to keep it," She grins evilly and turns off her TV, before leaving to go meet with Him.
