1. Summary

A new day, a new story, another sequel. If you haven't read the previous three normally I'd say don't worry, but this time you may get confused very quickly. The summary below should help catch you up, but if you want more information you can ask me in a review or read 'Can you keep a Secret,' 'Brick through a Window,' and 'Tangled Web.'

If you have read all those, go on to chapter 2. Thank you.

Powerpuff Characters. All these are from the normal series, I did not create them and do not own them. Puffs/Ruffs are 32 years old.

Blossom: Married (see below) with two children. Has recently returned to crime fighting, and is regaining lost confidence.

Bubbles: Is married to Boomer.

Buttercup: Is married to Butch, and has been for seven years. In a previous story she lost a baby, which understandably upset her a lot, but is making progress through it.

Butch: Married to Buttercup, (yes, I know I just said). Also now a superhero, but still manages to abuse his position to make money in less than legal ways. Devastated by the loss of the baby, but determined to sort it out.

Boomer: About to marry Bubbles, is now a superhero, and much more honest about it than Butch.

Brick: Died at seventeen, details of this in "Can you keep a Secret." Now works for Death(!) collecting the souls of those who have just died. Has a horse called Katharine. He is still in love with Blossom, and the two of them met again at the end of 'Tangled web.'

Any other characters from the standard series can be assumed to be in the same state as in the show, just suitably older.

Crossover characters I use these because I'm unoriginal. More may appear as needed, but only the two below are major characters.

Eddy: From Ed, Edd and Eddy, is married to Blossom(?) Not really accepted by Bubbles and Buttercup, but more so by Butch and Butch. Quite how he got here isn't clear. Has an inferiority complex over Brick, but doesn't worry about it, as Bricks not here to take advantage.

Sonic: Yes, the Hedgehog, (I know, I Know.) He is the leader of the Superheroes, making him the puffs/ruffs boss. Particularly keen to keep Blossom working very minute of the day. Has recently admitted to Blossom that he hates her due to jealousy, but full ramifications and reasons behind this are yet to be known.

My characters Characters I created. Feel free to use, if you can find one for them (which you won't, because no sane person would pair Eddy and Blossom…)

Edward: Blossom and Eddy's son, ten years old. Didn't know his mum was a superhero until very recently (did know about Bubbles and Buttercup), and not to keen on it himself. Has an ambition to be a rally driver. Currently recovering from a very serious injury inflicted by Him.

MJ: Edwards's younger sister, five years old. She has the same knowledge of her family as Edward does, but desperately wants to be a superhero. Generally smiley and chirpy. Was being bullied at school, until Edward took matters into his own hands. Also now has powers similar to Spiderman as well as her Puff powers.

Roland: Another of Death's workers, merely there as someone for Brick to talk to.

Other concepts

SSR: the government funded superhero organisation. Sonic is in charge, Blossom is second in command, but Sonic treats her more as a glorified secretary. The other Puffs/Ruffs are also members, as well as anyone else I pull out of thin air.

Blossom's secret: Related to Brick's death, it plays a huge part in this story. Basically, In confusing, high pressure circumstances, Blossom ended up killing Superman, who'd just killed Brick. Sonic was first on the scene, and covered up for her by claiming that Brick killed Superman, and Blossom killed Brick in response. Other people aware of the truth are Eddy, Butch and Boomer – who were told so they didn't try to get Blossom out of her sister's lives. NOTE, Bubbles and Buttercup DO NOT know.

Apology: Sorry to Terry Prachett, who I've stolen some ideas off (but I'm in good company in that field!) And sorry to any Sonic fans who might read this, he generally doesn't come off well.

Right, if you think this is stupid, press the back button and I wish you all the best. If you think this could be good, but don't understand what I've just written, or want to know more, you can go skim read 'Can you keep a secret' and 'Brick through a window.' If you want to read the story, let's begin.
