Hi everyone!

Super sorry for the late update! Life (as I'm sure you all know) is pretty crazy and being in lockdown with a 1 year old, is one tiring adventure!

Anyway, I did this on my phone because wanted to get it out so bad!

We're nearly at the end people!

Disclaimer: I own nothing aside Bella

Rose stared at the little girl, before slowly shifting her eyes around the table. Everyone was watching her with trepidation, waiting for her next move. Rose looked back at Bella who was watching her confidently.

"I aint your ma kid."

"Yes you are."

"No. I'm not."

"Bella, eat your food." Brick ordered trying to end this toxic conversation.

"You are! I know it!" Bella stood up in her chair coming face to face with Rose. Rose watched her as a flash of pain ripped through her head, she squeezed her eyes shut tight and shook away the pain.

"You can't possibly know it! I've never had a kid. You're not mine!" She hissed through gritted teeth.

"You're my mummy." Bella started whimpering her eyes becoming watery, but this didn't sway Rose. If anything, it made her angrier.

"No, I'm not! And I'm not this Blossom chick you all so desperately trying to make me! I'm not stupid and I'm not blind! Whoever this Blossom is clearly aint coming back and I'm not going to be some second-rate replacement!"

"Calm down!" Brick snapped, his chest starting to heve, watching her spiral out of control.

"Calm down? Calm down?! Here I stupidly though that maybe some people in this scum city might actually want to help me. Actually, be good people! But jokes on me huh? All you lot want is to turn me into a probably dead friend's replacement! Well I'm not going to sit here and play happy families with a set of manipulative users!" Rose screamed jumping from her chair and walking out of the house.

"What do we do?!" Bubbles cried jumping from hr seat, tears in her eyes.

"Stay here." Brick commanded, standing up.

"Daddy?" A little voice muttered. Brick stop dead in his tracks and turned round to see Bella's distraught face.

"Bell…" He scooped her up and held her close as she cried into his neck.

"I'm sorry daddy, it's my fwalt."

"Sssshh, no it's not."

"I made mummy mad."

Brick pulled her away slightly to look at her curiously.

"Bells why do you think Rose is your mum?"

"Because I know it, she's my mummy. I know she is."

Brick looked over at his brother's who looked just as lost as him.

"Look, why don't you go play with aunty Bubbles while I go find Rose? Okay?"

"I want to come with you."

"Bella you can't, don't be silly."

"I'm not being silly! I wants to apwologise."

"That's nice baby but you have to stay here."

"No!"

"Bella… I'm warning you. You're not coming." Brick's tone had turned scolding.

"No!"

"Bella! Stop it!"

The 4 siblings looked on worriedly as father and daughter argued.

"Nooooo!" Bella cried, her hands lit up in flames causing Brick to drop her, she caught herself mid flight and took her chance.

"BELLA!" Everyone screamed as in a flash of red she rocketed through the door and out into an unforgiving Townsville.

"BELLA!" Brick cried shooting over to the door and looking out over the city trying to pin point where she went.

"Son-of-a-bitch!"

Brick turned frantically to look at the blues and greens.

"Find her!" He ordered.

"Which one?" Butch asked stepping forward.

Brick's eyes quickly flicked across everyone's face. "Both of them!"

Another red flash filled the house, quickly followed by flashes of blues and greens. The cities skies lit up with various colours as the girls and boys rushed round to find the two missing redheads.

Rose walked sulkily down Downtown Townsville, the skies were grey, and it has just started drizzling causing her hair to lightly stick to her face. She cursed herself when she realised that she had left her phone and belongings back at the house. She shrugged it off and carried on walking.

She reached her old apartment block fully soaked and made her way back to her old apartment.

"Heh, didn't even last a day." She scoffed pathetically. She pulled the spare key from under the banister and opened her door. She wasn't surprised to see Hugo sat waiting for her, his eyes fierce. She slammed the door shut with force, not in the mood to deal with him. Her headache pounding forcefully in her skull.

"What are you doing here?"

"Where have you been?"

"Answer me first."

"You don't ask the questions around here! Where have you been?!" Hugo snarled standing up.

"None of your business!"

"I think you'll find anything that concerns you is my business you bitch! You met someone didn't you? Who did you meet?!"

"Fuck off Hugo, I'm not in the mood."

Rose made her way round him until he grabbed a fistful of her hair and threw her to the ground. Rose screamed and curled in on herself watching him fearfully approach her.

"This has gone on for too long! Tell me who you met."

Rose's eyes scanned her apartment quickly, with a sudden burst she jumped to her feet and tried to make a break for the door. Hugo was quicker and wrapped his arms around her torso throwing her back to the floor. He made a lunge for her leg which she kicked out quickly hitting him square on the chest as she stumbled back into the wall.

She scrambled over to the kitchen and picked up her kitchen knife and held it out on front of her.

Hugo snickered. "Rose… don't do something that's going to get you hurt."

"Stay away from me! Get out!"

"Now Rose… watch who you're speaking to-" In that same second, he lunged for her again, they struggled for control of the knife, banging into the units, sending pans and plates spilling onto the floor with a bang. Hugo grabbed the handle and forced the blade round to Rose's stomach, he pressed the blade in drawing blood as Rose screamed out in pain.

Suddenly the door flew open with a red flash.

"MUMMY!"

Hugo released Rose immediately who wasted no time in rushing to the door. In the doorway Bella stood glaring hatefully at Hugo her red eyes glowing in fury.

"Y-y-you… i-it's you… I've found you!" Hugo cried in glee.

"Leave my Mummy alone." Bella hissed threateningly.

"Bella. You have to leave it's not safe." Rose ordered, fearful that a little girl was here.

"Finally! After all these years! Now you're going to come with me!" He snarled charging at Bella who jumped into the air throwing a well aimed punch at Hugo's face. He stumbled back slightly before grabbing her ankle and throwing her into the wall. Her little body fell to the floor as her eyes burned brighter.

"HUGO! STOP! SHE'S A LITTLE GIRL!" Rose screamed, rushing to Bella's aid but the little girl was furious, her infamous temper coming out to play.

She threw herself at Hugo hitting him square in the nose which made a satisfying crunch. Hugo fought back equally as hard trying to land a hit on the little girl who was currently floating in mid air! Rose's mind went into lockdown and all she could focus on was making sure Bella was okay.

She immediately jumped in grabbing Hugo around the neck trying to bring him to the floor. Suddenly another pair of arms grabbed her and threw her to the floor.

"CEDRIC?!" Rose cried seeing the gang leader looking murderous.

"You're in for it now sweetheart."

He grabbed her hair again and dragged her out of the room, her protests and struggles being futile, blood started slipping from the gash Hugo caused staining her stomach and jeans.

"MUMMY!" Bella screamed dashing after Rose.

"Oh no you don't you little brat!" Hugo snarled grabbing Bella, his strength increasing ten fold.

"Let me go!" Bella wailed struggling viciously against his hold.

"HEY!"

Bella and Hugo stopped struggling looking over to the door where a murderous Brick stood, smoke steaming from his body.

"Drop her." His voice was cold and deadly. Bella being the smart girl she was took her opportunity of Hugo's loose grasp and hit him square in the face before shooting over to her father. Once she was free of him, Brick attacked beating Hugo into the ground. He didn't finish until he was a bloody mess on the floor and Bella called for him.

"DADDY!"

Brick whipped round his hands covered in blood.

"They took Mummy!"

Just then the blues and greens arrived in the door way, Buttercup and Butch taking up the front.

"Holy fuck! Need a hand?" Butch asked taking in the scene in front of them.

"Boy's with me, girls stay with Bella." Brick ordered and in a flash the boys where gone.

"Like hell you're going without me!" Buttercup screamed also disappearing in a green flash.

"I don't suppose if I ask you nicely to come home you would?" Bubbles asked her niece knowing full well she was speaking to Blossom and Brick's child. Bella smirked and in a red flash had also disappeared.

"Thought not."

Rose was disoriented, she was being dragged and her head was killing her. Her clothes were still wet and the smell was damp. She had a feeling she was in the underground car park as she stumbled to keep pace. Noises sounded muffled, but she was aware that she was approaching more people.

She was roughly shoved to the floor and when her eyes opened she was surrounded by the Turelli's.

"Burn her." Cedric hissed.

She could feel the heat as the gang members surrounded her brandishing fire on the end of stick like a mob. She screamed as the fire licked at her arm as the colours began to distort into reds and oranges. Fear was bubbling inside getting stronger and stronger, her heart was racing, and her body was tingling. She could feel her throat tightening and becoming colder. She was certain she was dying.

She squeezed her eyes shut as everything around her became hotter until she couldn't take the heat anymore. She released a blood curdling scream as her throat burned cold. She felt a cold breeze wash over her as the heat suddenly vanished. She opened her eyes and her heart dropped.

Around her the members that were trying to kill her were frozen in place, encased in ice. The fire was extinguished as sparkling ice covered the majority of the gang members. Cedric was starting at her- jaw agape and horrified.

"You fucking mutant." He hissed.

His associates looked to him for instruction but before he could bark an order, flashes of red, blue and green lit up the underground.

The 5 superhuman's plus 1 mini superhuman all stood looking over the scene. Rose was laid on the floor, her arm burnt but surrounded by glittering ice containing associates of the Turelli's.

Bubbles put her hands over her mouth while Buttercup's breathing increased rapidly.

Rose's eyes stopped looking around her at the frozen men and over to the new arrivals. Her eyes locked onto Brick's first and as soon as their eyes connected she was hit with a wave of memories that threw her back to the floor.

She was laid her bed.

She hadn't slept much after her encounter with Brick. She knew she had to tell him, him more than anyone but she was still trying to digest the news herself. It didn't feel real, somehow it didn't feel like it was happening to her. Nothing had changed from a few days ago since she found out. No symptoms or anything, but she just knew.

The morning sun's rays were spilling through her window as she snuggled further down into her bed, hoping it would swallow her whole. Her hand flitted to her still flat stomach as she stroked it gently. The little life growing inside needed her, it depended on her.

Her other hand fiddled with the positive pregnancy test which had been secured under her pillow for the last 3 days. She thought back to her conversation with Brick, she shouldn't have spoken to him like that, god knows he won't see her again easily. But she couldn't face him right now. She'll speak to him again in time but right now she needed to focus on herself.

Her eyes glided over to her clock on her bedside table. 11:24AM was displayed in red angry numbers. She sigh.

"Best get up." She muttered knowing she was no use wallowing in her bed, no matter how much she wanted to.

As she was pulling back her duvet her eyes drooped, and her head bobbed. Fatigue hit her like a train and her body felt like lead. She collapsed back onto the bed, trying desperately to keep her eyes open. Her room seemed 'pinker' than before like a mist was descending upon her. All of her instincts were screaming at her that something was wrong, but the drowsiness was unbearable.

"Bubs…. BUTTERCUP!"

Her voice was hoarse, like she had been screaming for days. She dragged her body off the bed and felt it hit the ground hard. The mist seemed to be getting thicker and her door was not getting closer.

Her eyes couldn't hold out much longer as she fell victim to the darkness as a manic laughter filled her ears.

She awoke in a cell.

A bed. A toilet. A table and chair.

It was warm, almost too warm. The smell of stale water was limp in the air adding to the suffocating atmosphere.

Her head ached as she tried to take in her surroundings.

"Ah, the princess awakens."

She shot round and glared hatefully at the demon at her door.

"HIM, I should have known you'd be behind this." She hissed.

The devil grinned sinisterly as he stared hypnotically at the redhead not saying a word.

"What do you want?!" She snarled, becoming unnerved at his staring.

HIM chuckled. "Why sweet girl, the time is not yet right. You might as well get comfy because you're going to be here a while."

"And just what makes you think I'm going to stay here?"

His smirk grew.

"Go ahead…" He stood to the side giving space to the open door. "By all means try and leave."

She smirked at his foolishness and kicked the floor, however the familiar feeling of weightlessness never happened. She looked around and she was still on the floor. She tried to form an energy ball in her hands, shoot lasers from her eyes or conjure up her ice breath. Nothing happened.

"What have you done?!" She hissed.

"Why I haven't done a thing…" He grinned. "The fact that you couldn't keep your legs closed means you have brought this on yourself."

Her face paled and her hand fell to her stomach.

"That's right… that little creature that's growing inside of you is the reason you're here."

"What are you talking about?" Her voice was more fearful as her fate was unravelling.

"While you might have thought your escapades will have gone by with consequence. You have unwittingly created one of the most powerful weapons of our time!"

"Weapon?" She whispered horrified.

"Why of course, a weapon that can be moulded and structure for evil that will accompany me with my plans."

She stared at his mortified at his sick and twisted plans. How dare he think he would take her baby from her. She would never let it happen.

"You won't get away with this. I may be powerless but my sisters won't stop looking for me! They'll find me and beat you to a pulp before you can even imagine this plan succeeding!"

"You seem to be under the impression that I've not thought out my plan… you'll be here for as long as that creature needs your body, then as soon as it's free you'll be disposed of. Enjoy your time while you can… only 8 months left, Blossom."

The door slam echoed in her mind as she slid down the wall, all hope leaving her cold and alone.

"Rose?!"

Another flash and another scream as her memories flooded back with force.

She was in her cell, her stomach now very prominent. Thankfully her pregnancy symptoms had begun to subside a few weeks ago and she could feel some of her strength returning. One horrible symptom she had been suffering terrible with was undoubtedly from the father, was her horrific hot flushes.

She would sit and swelter as it felt like a fire was burning in her chest, her skin would tinge pink as her eyes started watering. She knew she couldn't show HIM this symptom… it would be all too easy to place the father. A piece of information he was desperate to discover.

Blossom was a smart girl, ever since HIM revealed his plans for her baby she knew her baby would be in 10 times as much danger if he knew the father was also a superhuman. Meaning her precious baby was even more powerful, thus more in danger.

HIM was persistent, every chance he got he tried to get he father's name out of her. She knew he couldn't harm her too much without hurting the baby, but he gave it a good try. Eventually she blurted out a false name to try and get him off the trail. Billy Belson. A guy she dated in college, she knew if HIM were to dig into things he would find a history between herself and Billy and luckily it seemed to work. For a while.

HIM could see her strength returning after a while and knew she was holding a dark secret. Again, he tried to get the truth from her, but the bigger she became the more fragile she was so he could only do so much.

"Blossom?!"

"Someone do something! She's shaking!"

"Look at me! Look at me!"

"What's happening to Mummy?!"

More flashes.

The day arrived. She could feel it coming for ages. This place had completely drained her, and her cell was her only comfort. She knew she was running out of time and any moment now her precious baby would be here and then snatched away forever. She only had one chance to do this.

The pain ripped through her as she struggled to contain her screams. She knew that her food would arrive in the next 30 minuets. And she could not let HIM know that the baby was coming. She needed time.

She counted the minuets before the next round of pain and tried her best to breath through it. She felt tears gathered in her eyes. This was not how it should be happening, she had always versioned the birth of her baby surrounded by love and family. She imagined she wouldn't be alone but safe and happy, she would have been supported and helped and excited. How cruel life could be.

But she had to remain strong for her baby. She had to do this. Slowly the minuets ticked by and three solid thumps echoed on the door. She wiped her brow from sweat and patted down her hair and took a deep breath. She opened the visor coming face to face with ghoulish yellow eyes and played the perfect poker face.

"Dinner time."

Blossom bit the inside of her cheek as another sharp stab of pain hit her. As she walked over to collect her 'food', she stumbled slightly as the pain increased. The ghoul narrowed his beady eyes.

"What are you doing?"

Blossom breathed out a hiss before regaining her composure and grabbing the plate.

"Nothing." She snapped before turning on her heel, the ghoul seemed to accept this and slammed the visor shut, leaving Blossom to try and get through the coming hours.

It was going to happen, any second now, her baby would be born.

Blossom had proper herself on the bed and gathered the bed sheets at her feet. She had been pushing for the past hour and was able to feel the back of baby's head. She was nearly done. She'd managed to keep her labour silent as thick beads of sweat dripped off her.

She gave one final push before the baby slide out and into Blossom's arms. Blossom gave a squeak of surprise before tears sprung from her eyes. She quickly started cleaning the baby up, mildly aware that it had not made a sound. She pulled the baby up into her arms and gasped noticing she was holding her daughter.

The baby opened her blazing red eyes and stared at her mother in wonder. Blossom smiled and put her finger to her lips to try and tell her daughter to keep quiet. Amazingly the baby remained calm as Blossom knew she didn't have much time.

Quickly she scrambled to the supplies she had been storing over the past few months and began writing a hasty note. She had gathered a few ingredients from HIMs lab to save her daughter. She just prayed she had enough time as she got to work.

Just as she was finishing up her plan the door pounded and squeaked open.. HIM's silhouette stood in stark contrast to the bright surroundings but his eyes glowed in glee.

"My my, haven't you been busy." He squealed. The baby closed her eyes and Blossom breathed a sigh of relief, the eyes would be a give-away. Blossom stood on shaky legs and hobbled over to stand in front of her baby.

"Stay away." Her tone was deadly, HIM gave her a bemused smirk, like he was humouring her.

"You're courage is admirable but lets not make stupid mistakes." He chastised. Blossom stood firm and HIM rolled his eyes. With a flick of his wrist he sent the new mother hurdling into the brick wall.

"Ahhh satisfying, knowing I can finally teach you a proper lesson!"

Blossom coughed as she tried to catch her breath again. HIM turned on his heel, focusing his attention back on what he'd been waiting for all these months.

"Please don't!" Blossom cried, trying to pick herself back up.

"Look at you, you're pathetic! Not even worth my time."

"Just give her back!"

"You want her? Go ahead take her…"

"…" Blossom crawled over to the bed and took one longing look at her daughter as tears streamed down her cheeks.

"Just what I thought. WEAK! You've always been weak, you stupid cow."

"GO!"

A sharp flash of light surrounded the baby and in the same second, she was gone. Blossom breathed a sigh of relief. She did it, she's saved her baby.

"WHAT?! WHAT DID YOU DO?! WHERE DID SHE GO?!"

Smirk. Blossom couldn't help it, after months of planning and worrying her baby was away from him.

"To her father, you won't touch her."

"No…"

"Looks like I'm not completely weak."

"Just you wait Blossom. I'll get her back, and you'll never leave."

Scream.

Scream.

"Open your eyes! Blossom!"

Torture, pain, punishment. HIM cast all the powers of hell down onto her. He searched Townsville 10 times over but could not trace the PowerPuff baby. He was running out of patience as a year slipped by, then another and another. He was wasting precious time.

He needed a plan and quick.

The only option was to send her back, it was the only way. She would be able to find her daughter, they'd be drawn to each other. Then all he would have to do it collect the reward. It was risky, but unfortunately his only option.

He cast a powerful brainwash spell over her to force her to lose all her memories and start from scratch. He also needed to keep her powers suppressed, her sisters would find her all too easily if not. This would work.

With a snap of his claw, the scenery changed. He changed his form and straightened his suit before taking a seat in the hospital chair. He crossed his legs and smirked.

"Wakey wakey Blossom, find me your girl."

SNAP!

She opened her eyes to find two vibrant green eyes staring at her…

"Good. You're awake."

"Ahhh!"

She snapped her eyes open to come face to face with worried blood red eyes. Her breathing was heavy as she took in her surroundings.

"B-Brick?"

"Rose?" He asked warily. She scrunched her brow.

"What? Who's Rose?"

There was a tense silence.

"It's me."

So pretty much all of you knew that anyway, but how satisfying is it to have it confirmed?!

Hehe!

Hoping to get the last few chapters up soon, I'm just really unsure of the ending... I've changed it 4 times already! Hmm... might need another go over Haha!

Please leave a review! And stay safe.

Love
