I do not own Powerpuff Girls.
Enjoy!
The police of Townsville made a few mistakes when they decided to arrest Blade Vance.
One, they actually had the balls to whip out a gun and point it at him, before they even uttered a word.
Two, they arrested Blade Vance not Buttercup Utonium.
Three, they shoved the teen to the ground and handcuffed him without even telling him why he was arrested without even bothering to confirm his own identity.
Four, they arrested him in front of not only a small crowd of people but also his friend who happened to be the children, of two very important families.
Five, none of the police took notice of what school he went to, if they know, they would have thought twice about breaking a very important packed with government themselves.
And Six.
They had the balls to arrest world renowned genius, Satrud Vance, own son.
And that's why, Townsville, was about to get a rude weak up call, in terms of blindly trusting super powered teenagers to clean up their messes.
Because nobody imprisons Satrud Vance own son and gets away with it.
Nobody.
Ch 7: The price for ignorance.
Blade Vance, sat in a holding cell, in handcuffs and couldn't help but think so this is how it feels to be on the other side, huh. Recalling all the people he sent to jail as Buttercup.
In actual fact, he wasn't even supposed be in a holding cell, he should be on a chair signing his name and leaving with the Professor after the man had paid the fine of skipping so many days of school.
The very reason, why he was in a holding cell in the first place, was because he didn't sign his name as "Buttercup" but "Blade" when asked.
The police took one look at his form and immediately thought he was lying.
When Professor Utonium arrived with a worried Bubbles and a smug Blossom in tow.
Bitch.
Blossom was probably the one who called the cops on him in the first place.
The Professor, the poor man, had taken one look at him and pretty much fainted from the shock of seeing what has become of his sweet and innocent young girl and when he finally came around, Blade was treated to five minutes of the Professor losing it and shouting at him for a full five minutes until his ears rung.
Both Blossom and Bubbles took several steps back, they didn't want to get in the middle of whatever was happening in front of them.
While he just gave him a blank look the entire time, wondering if his father would charge the man for harassment when he was released.
The Professor, would later realise his mistake, long after he had finally partially calm down enough to agree to pay the fine, for all those days of school, Buttercup had missed.
Than the man learnt that he had signed the form with a 'fake' name instead of Buttercup.
The Professor surprisingly didn't lost it and the man asked calmly, for another sheet and instructed him to write his real name.
He did.
He wrote Blade.
The Professor face turned red and he looked like he was about to shout again but managed to stop himself in time.
The Professor had decided that if he loved this place so much, then he should spend time in a jail cell until he agreed to sign the form with his 'true name' which was also illegal to do.
The man, didn't expect him to give him a blank look and happily go to a Jail cell.
Blade had to admit, he felt a bit smug knowing he had basically given a middle finger to his formers sisters own actions while feeling sorry for the professor.
If the man could look past the perfect image he had for all three of his children, then his eyes would be open to, why he refused to turn back into a girl and come home.
His former sisters could only watch in shock as he began made himself home and began chilling in an empty jail cell.
He thought that when he got back to school, he could boost about knowing what it's like inside of a jail cell.
That will get him some cred amongst the snobs.
"Buttercup..." The Professor said, as he watched him with a shocked look and sad eyes.
Blade had been in the cell for about an hour before the door burst in the police station, standing there was none other than Satrud Vance.
The man was dressed in anything he could slap on in the last minute.
Those in the station didn't know who this man was but Professor Utonium know.
Yes, the Professor know all too well who the man was.
After all he was the very man who proved that it possible to create life through chemicals.
If it wasn't for him, the Professor would have never thought about using science to create his three girls and would have thought of adopting instead.
In that moment, the Professor wanted the man's autograph but thought that could wait, for now.
After all, what was the Satrud Vance doing in Townsville and in a random police station?
The man swept into the room and went to the reception, immediately.
"Yes, can we help you, sir" The receptionist said, "Would you like to report a crime?"
"Yes" The man said, "I want to report the wrongful imprisonment of my son in this station"
"What?" The receptionist said. "I beg your pardon sir, but there no boy here, the only one behind bars is a girl"
All eyes turned to the hall way to the prison cell and that was all Satrud needed to know, as he strolled down the corridor ignoring the shouts, knowing the guards will be on his ass if he ever listened.
He ignored the family of three that were present, this was no time to study two other super powered teenagers.
He was here for his son.
Blade looked to find his own father appeared and relief washed over him, he wanted to give the man a hug but could only manage sticking his arms through the bars.
To say everyone else were shocked by this action as the police came in would be an understatement of a lifetime.
"Dad" Blade said.
Did Buttercup just call this man "Dad"!?
"Son, they didn't hurt you, did they?" Satrud said, worry and concern leased his voice, apart from the dirt on his son's school uniform and hair, he looked fi...he trailed off.
He saw the handcuffs and felt anger.
"What's going on in here?" One fat police man demanded.
"Good, your here" Satrud said, releasing his son. "I want you to unlock this cell now or I'll press charges."
Shocking everyone but Blade who was wondering since when did his father become so fierce.
"Now see here" The thin Police mam said, with arrogance in his tone, the man had absolutely no idea who he was talking and how disrespectful he was as he said. "Mr..."
"Satrud. Satrud Vance" Satrud said, raising to his full height, which made him taller than both of the police men.
The Professor, was torn between fan-boying or looking on with confusion.
"Well, Mr Vance" The thin one said, trying to make himself look taller and fail in the process." We can't do that. We have to get the girl's guardian permission"
"Girl?" Satrud said, raising an eyebrow and said. "I'm sure you aren't that idiotic to not see my son is wearing a boy's school uniform" while adding mentally to another thing to his list of charges.
Harassment towards him.
"A-h, well" Now both Police man stuttered, they didn't really pay attention to what he was wearing.
"She obviously disguised herself as a boy" Blossom said, in her know it all attitude.
Satrud didn't even spar her a glance and continued like he didn't even hear her, which irritated the girl and Blade thought.
Burn.
"And just, who do you think the person in this cell is?" He asked, already knowing the answer.
"Buttercup, Buttercup Utonium. My daughter" The Professor said, without missing a beat.
"Well sorry to tell you this" Satrud said, "I would never name my son something so girly. His name is Blade, Blade Vance, isn't that right?" turning to his son.
"Dad, I kept on telling them that's my name and they didn't believe me, I even got yelled at by a complete stranger" The boy in the cell said, much to everyone else shock.
Satrud was in shock, because someone other than him had yelled at his son while the rest were shocked to hear his voice for the first time.
No matter how you play it back.
It was a boy's voice.
"Stranger?" The professor said slowly, replaying how he had yelled at, who he thought was his daughter only to get a blank stare back, while Bubbles and Blossom exchanged shocked looks.
Clearly they didn't think this would happen.
"Great, I have one more person to press charges against" Satrud said, "This town is going to pay, this would have all been avoided if you had checked his student ID before you arrested him!"
And both the Cops and the family began to have a sinking feeling in the pit of their stomach, they didn't like were this was going.
"And I don't think the Government will be happy with what has happened today, either" Satrud said, getting looks of surprise.
Why would the government care about a kid locked behind bars?
"So now I've seen everything! The level of stupidity in this building astounds me!" Satrud said, so they arrested his son without even knowing his son was protected by the law!?" You arrested my son without even knowing exactly who he is! Than what did you think that symbol on his shirt is!? A normal school emblem!?"
Yes, was silently heard through the air.
"Allow me to spell it out for you, all" Satrud said, "My son doesn't just go to any other school. He goes to Richard Kingsley Boarding School, the number one school in the country and also the most expensive school in the country."
Shocking the Professor, Blossom and Bubbles not to mention the police, this was clearly new information to them all and not so much for Blade.
"This school doesn't not except honour students and do you know why?" Satrud said, "Richard Kingsley, is really a way for the Government to attract foreign businesses to the country, if you can't at least pay the intuition fee than your clearly not from a rich and wealthy family that cannot bring anything to the country. All the students and teacher at the school, all belong to a family that can bring profit to the country and in exchange, the government has to sign a pack that says all students and teachers are protected by the law. That while they study here, they are treated with the utmost respect and kindness possible, it is law that all business learn to recognise the symbol to recognise the importance of the people attending the school."
A look of horror drawn onto the Police officer's faces, as they realised what they just done, while Blossom looked like she swallowed something dry.
"The fact that I can pay the school fee's, mean's that I am also one of this countries business partners" Satrud said, "And by arresting my son, you have gone against that pack, do you really think that once I report this to the government that my own son was arrested without even given him a chance to defend himself, that this will end well for not just you but the whole town! I will have you all arrested before the week is out, minors or not!" shocking them all.
Bubbles started to cry, she didn't want to go jail.
Blossom mind tried to find a way out of this.
The Professor looked to be the illest of them all.
"P-Please sir" The fat police said, fiddling with the keys, this was the only job that was easy enough for him to do and paid well.
"Get my son out of there, before I start dialling the government and make sure, you can never find work again!" Satrud said, as the obese man scrambled to open the door to the cell.
Blade was finally released and went to immediately hug his father for real.
The Professor and the girls could only look on in shame.
"I want to know on who's authority did you use to justify, arresting my son?" Satrud said, as he tried to fix his son's hair.
All eyes fell on a pink haired girl who suddenly looked very uncomfortable.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Satrud said, "You arrested my son, on the word of a teenage girl, even if she's a superhero? What reason did she give you? Does she have evidence to back up the reason why my son needs to be arrested?"
The police men could only gap, now realising just how stupid they were, they had pretty much just taken Blossom word for it, believing she could never be wrong and there was no need to investigate.
In a way, the town as a whole depended on teenagers for far too long to the point they had lost their ability to use common sense.
"That's what I thought" He said, "You should know, I will press charges against this police station"
"But you said.." The thin Police said.
"I never said I won't if my son is free" Satrud said, reminding them. "Even if I did, do you think this would be brushed under the rug? Today my son was out with his friends who also go to the same school as him and are children of influential people. Do you think, they would be quiet and not tell their parents? By this time tomorrow, the whole school will know about this. I might even have to pull my own child out of school because the government failed to protect him from uniformed officers like you, in fact many students will pull out and the Government will lose business. And when that happens, who do you think will be to blame?"
The Police officer's skins turned a new shade of white but so did the Professor and the girls.
The town would take a huge finical hit because of one mistake.
"Dad, but I don't want to leave my friends" Blade said.
"I know, son. I know" Satrud said, as he got his sons bag and began to walk out of the police station and back into the car out front. "But I can't trust a school that doesn't protect their own students and staff members"
That night, a plea was sent by the Manor to the Australia Government.
They were willing to do anything to stop the town from taking a finical big hit, how would they have the money to repair the damage caused by monsters and villains?
That day, the city of Townville learned the price of depending solely on super power teenagers.
Now people, will think twice before trusting the Powerpuff girls blindly ever again.
And scene!
Next chapter, Blade transfers out of his school and into Pokey Oaks College due to a packed made with the town mayor and the Government so that they don't lose Business. Review/fav and follow!
