Years Later
Townesville was greeted by the daily light streaks of pink, blue and green over their much loved cityscape. It had been about five years since they successfully detained the Rowdyruff boys. They hadn't even thought about them in the years that followed. The girls had grown over the years, while it was never any doubt they were all sisters, they all had devolved more distinct body types. Buttercup, who lived a much more athletic lifestyle had a much more lean body, with her after school activities usually being apart of the swim team. Although she was rarely allowed to compete for obvious fairness she loved the workout.
Bubbles, who was much more artistic and sweet obsessed had developed a more curvy stature. She often would spend time painting landscapes or animals, and was usually seen trying to get something sweet to eat. However, still being a crime fighter no one would ever call her out of shape just more shapely than her sisters.
Blossom, was the middle ground of her two sisters. She kept up her own workout routine, but focused more on her studies, and while loved her sweets restrained herself more than her sugar loving sister.
"Ugh," Buttercup moaned. "Why are we wasting our time here, nothing has happened in weeks and I'm missing my monster truck rally." she complained to blossom.
"Yeah," Bubbles agreed. "I wanted to hit the zoo today to get some animal sketches done."
"You know we must stay vigilant, all it takes is one moment we don't pay attention, and we risk losing the city girls." Blossom replied to her sisters.
"Fine, I guess." Buttercup huffed. "I would just be more likely to care if I thought anything was gonna happen. At least that has the promise of a good workout."
"She isn't wrong." Blossom thought to her self. It has been strangley quiet lately, but it couldn't last long. The winter had ceased and spring coming in was sure to bring more crime with it. No one wants to deal with icy roads as well as the Powerpuffs she theorized.
After a last lap around the city they all stopped, "Okay, so nothing new happening can we go?" Buttercup demanded.
"I get you love your monster trucks Buttercup, but you love this city just as much as us. Why don't you just be happy there is no major crime instead of being annoyed about it?" Blossom sighed.
"I'm more pent up than anything Bloss," Buttercup complained, "No crime means no punching. I'm going stir crazy, give me something; a bank robbery, a robot army, a giant monster just give me something!"
As if some omnipotent being was listening they soon heard a deafening roar shatter all other noises. Looking at the source was a 100 foot monster resembling an Allosaurus, but with spines the size of cars on its back and more porportional arms, its legs and tails was doing most the damage, while the arms were grabbing anything they could and shoving it into its powerfull jaws, where rows of razor sharp teeth lay. So far it hadn't seemed like anyone ended up as a snack to the creature yet. Blossom just shot Buttercup a look, "Hey don't blame me I didn't make is appear, I think." Buttercup responded blushing.
"Careful what you wish for," Blossom sighed, "Let's get this under control girls." And soon all three shot off to face the monster. Upon reaching the mosnter each one split off to get anyone unfortunate enough to be near away from the creature. The whole proccess only took about five minutes, and soon they were eye level with the beast.
"Any ideas girls?" Blossom asked.
"Same as always," replied a manic grin bearing Buttercup, "Punch it until it cries for mommy." She laughed and shot to the creature. Not wanting to waste time arguing Blossom and Bubbles followed in suit. However, each strike against the hardened skin resulted in nothing but pain for the girls. It kept following the girls movements and swatted them away after each hit like they were little more than flies.
Landing in her own crater Blossom took notice of how quick the monster was. "Why does it have to be big and fast." She vented inside her head. She raised up and took more of an observant approach. She flew past its eye and noticed how it kept up with her, even though Buttercup and Bubbles were on its other side. "Thats it. It can't focus on more than one thing at a time!" She internally celebrated her decision. She was about to call out to her sisters when, out of her own lack of focus, was struck by the creatures tail, sending her flying across the City through a few buildings and left a long canyon in the road where she landed.
She wiped off the dirt when she heard someone speak behind her. "Sheesh Red, do you always suck so bad at fighting these things?" She bolted around to face her heckler when she was met with unpresidented sight. A young man with long red hair, a red baseball cap and a red jacket stood on the sidewalk just a few feet from her.
"Brick?" She then tackled and pinned the young man against a wall. "What are you doing out?" She interrogated.
"I didn't escape if thats what your assuming." He jeered at her. "I was just picking up lunch." He said holding up a mangled brown bag.
"I don't believe a word from that mouth!" She yelled in his face.
"You can take me back, but doesn't that creature require more attention than what you're givin me," He paused for a breath between her choking pin against the wall, then smiled, "Babe?"
Seeing his breathing was a little haggard she released him. "So how did you get out?" She demanded an answer from him.
"Me and my brothers were released two years ago." He said looking in his brown bag.
"Why would they do that." She squinted at him.
"Good behaivor." He chuckled and pulled out a hot dog.
"Oh yeah? Like you could ever behave." She scoffed. "Even more so go two years without creating havoc."
"I'm still on probation, you're not worth being zapped for." he took a bite. "Great now it's cold." he then used his heat vision to warm it up for a second.
"That's what always makes me mad about you three, you only ever use your powers for selfish reasons. You could always help us with stuff like this monster for example."
"Being a hero is your bag, not mine." a crooked smile washed over his face. "Besides like I'm gonna stop something from destroying you." He laughed, "I still want a world with out ya in it, ya know."
"Whatever, I'm gonna find out how you got out and if I find you lied to me i'll hunt you down and put you back in myself." She was about to fly off, but turned around with a snide smirk. "Enjoy eating your weiner." And with that she flew off to resume her monsterous task.
A look of apathetic annoyance washed over Bricks face just as he was about to take another bite of his hotdog. "Whatever, burgers are better anyways." the annoyance apparent in his voice, as he threw his hotdog and the bag at some hobo who happened to be sitting there. Despite the fact it hit him hard enough to send him to the floor, he still took the food graciously.
After a short detour to a nearby burger shop he walked into what was once Fuzzy Lumpkins cabin, he decided to abandon it one day and go back to "Good ole caijun country with my kin." as he put it when the boys showed up on his doorstep.
Inside were a few beds and a computer. They were provided by the state, since no foster care or orphanage would take three super powered criminals with a long history of violence in. The boys prefered this. After three years of being powerless they yearned for their own place, and the state would rather keep them in one place than risk them running away.
The boys were visited weekly by their Probation officer, it was his idea to let them out, under monitering of course. Each boy had a tracking device attached to their legs, that would drain them of their power at the push of a button should they be tampered with or the boys violated probation.
Brick walked past Boomer who was turned into a hobby comic collector, although Brick was allowed to continue his education through online classes acredited through Pokeyoaks High, both his brothers still went back to the penitentiary for their own classes. It was deemed too risky to allow them to go to school with normal teenagers. Brick threw a wrapped burger at Boomer who managed to catch it without looking away from his comics.
"Where's Butch?" He asked as he walked to the rocking chair that doubled as his computer chair.
"Outside, tinkering with that car." Boomer replied between chews. About a year into incarceration they got Butch into mechanic work. After being released he broke probation and lifted a wrecked car from a scrapyard. The boys were given a warning instead of being locked back up since it kept the more manic brother busy.
"Well go get 'im would ya?" Brick shouted not wanting to get up.
"Butch! Lunch is here!" Boomer shouted from his spot.
"Idiot! I could have done that." Scolded an annoyed Brick.
"Well why didn't ya." Boomer responded sticking out his tongue.
"You can't argue with that kind of stupid." Brick thought to himself while letting out a vexed sigh.
"Finally! I'm starving!" Butch yelled bursting in the door. Brick tossed him his burger. "Awe I thought we were getting hotdogs. All we ever have is burgers." The green clad boy complained.
"Shut up, the hotdog cart got destroyed by some monster." Brick lied wanting to avoid talking about the girl who he conversed with only minutes ago. Accepting the lie, Butch rolled his eyes and tossed the burger in his mouth loudly chewing it.
Meanwhile the girls were still fighting the monster blossom had finally managed to relay the information she gathered to her sisters. "This better work Bloss." Yelled buttercup as she lost the 'not it' game and was made to be the distraction.
"It won't if you're shouting at me!" Blossom shot back. The two girls flew as fast as they could into the creature's left eye while it was focused on buttercup to its right. The beast let out a painful, loud roar and covered its affected eye. "It's blinded! Good work girls, lets finish it." she ordered. They started group coridinated strikes against the monster. Soon it let out another screech.
"Now what?" Cried Bubbles holding her head to protect her hearing. Her question was quickly answered as the spines shot off the creatures back.
"Looks like a self defense move, Quick! Stop them before they hurt anyone!" Blossom ordered and the three girls took off to stop the spinal projectiles. They did manage to limit the damage to only structual, but still missed one that flew out of the city limits.
"You think anyone will get hurt?" Bubbles asked Blossom who was watching it.
"I don't think so it landed in the forrest." She turned back to the monster that was now thrashing about wildly and unpredictably. "Lets get back to the task at hand.
Back in the cabin the boys were coughing up dirt and debris from the sudden impact. Seeing their cabin destroyed, they were livid at what all the strange object had ruined.
"My computer!" Yelled brick, which was nothing but small pieces.
"My escalade!" Brick screamed, the SUV was effectivly bisected down the middle, ruining both the engine and any interior left.
"My comics!" Cried Boomer. All of which were shredded and torn. The three boys then saw the fridge that got completely torn apart.
"Our food!" Came a maddening yell from all three. They turned around and looked where the spine that destroyed their home came from.
"Someones gonna pay!" Yelled Brick.
"Yeah and slowly at that!" Replied Butch.
"Yeah someones gonna pay nice and slowly." Came Boomer.
"If I wasn't already pissed at that monster I would smack you for being so stupid Boomer." Brick said holding the bridge of his nose. "Whatever," Began Brick.
"Lets get 'em!" Yelled all three as they took to the sky to make someone pay dearly.
