Chapter 5: Change of Pace!
Part 1.
The City of New Townsville, now lets check on our favorite red head Blossom. It's a beautiful morning as she came out the shower and wrapped a towel around her body, but in the bathroom she faces the most hated enemy of every girl and woman… The bathroom scale.
"Alright here goes nothing…(Gulp)" Blossom said as she stood firm and stepped on the evil device, then as the machine did it thing Blossom looked down "Huh… AAALLLRIIIIIGHT, WOO HOO!"
Meanwhile downstairs
Blossom's Mom, Dad and Kasey who held Bullet as she stood quiet, were all enjoying Breakfast as they couldn't help but hear the oldest daughters cheers
"Hmm, wonder what she's so happy about?" The mom asked
"Hee hee" Kasey giggled
"Bet it has something, to do with that diet of hers." The dad answered "What's so funny Kasey? Do you know why she's so happy?"
"Uh… Well you see… uh." Kasey nervously spoke up
"Come on, there's nothing to worry about."
"You see… there's this boy and."
"A BOY?"
"His name is Dexter and Blossom really likes him and I think he really likes her and…"
"What's he like?" The mom asked making Kasey more nervous
"Uh he's very nice, he's really, really smart and he's very funny, But he does have a bit of an ego, what ever that is, and he's shy and a… uh… bit of a loner I think."
"Is he cute?"
"Now, now dear I'm sure if Blossom likes him he must be okay." The dad calmed his wife down
"Hi every body!" Blossom cheered came down fully dressed "I lost all the extra weight I put on and now I'm at the ideal amount and I look Fantastic! Oh and mom, I think I need bigger bras now too Hee hee… Uh… is something wrong."
"Blossom… dear." Mom spoke as both parents came over and placed their hands on their daughter's shoulders "WHO IS THIS DEXTER?"
"WHAT'S HE LIKE?" Dad followed
"HOW SMART IS HE?"
"DOES HE NEED A REAL MAN IN HIS LIFE?
"HE DOESN'T KNOW ANY BAD PEOPLE DOES HE?"
"DOES HE HAVE A JUVE RECORD?
"MOM, DAD… CALM DOWN!" Blossom said trying to calm down her frantic parents " Hey wait a minute… H-how do you know about Dexter? I never told you."
"Uh… heh heh… Sorry Blossom." Kasey meekly apologized
"KASEY, HOW COULD YOU?"
"Now now young lady" The mom spoke "We just need to calm down and think about this, right dear… Dear?"
"My little girls growing up." The father sat in corner crying his eyes out "Curse you father time!"
'Maybe I should keep quiet about Ken.' Kasey thought to herself 'Who knows how they'll act, I mean I like him too but he's not my boyfriend or anything… is he?'
The whole group stood quiet when suddenly the mother had an idea
"I know, why don't you invite this Dexter boy over for dinner." The mom spoke "I'll even make everyone's favorite!"
"But Mom I don't think…" Blossom spoke up
"Yeah, Dexter will love it!" Kasey cheered
"Kasey, not helping!"
"Don't worry, dear if this Dexter is as good as you think he is I'm sure he won't mind." The mom spoke "Right dear?"
"My little girls growing up!" The father still cried "I still remember how she laughed like I was tickling her when I changed her diapers! SHE WAS SO CUTE!"
"DAAAAAD!" Blossom cried in embarrassment
"Don't worry dear just be home with Dexter by eight." The mom explained "I'm sure everything will be fine."
"Yeah, just fine." Blossom spoke stunned "Heh heh heh."
Later outside going towards the lad
Blossom and Kasey were having a nice little conversation about the dinner
"KASEY, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?" Blossom yelled while shaking the poor nine year old
"I… was… n't… think… ing… a… bout… any… thing… they… just forced… it… out… of… me!" Kasey explained as she was being shook back and forth until Blossom let her go
"Cheep cheep!" Bullet spoke to her dizzy friend
"Oh man, now Dexter has to meet my parents." Blossom started to freak out "Wait… what if he meet them and they don't like him? What if he doesn't like them? What if he doesn't like me anymore? What if…"
"Blossom calm down!" Kasey spoke "I'm sure if we tell Dexter everything will be fine."
"(Huff puff) You right, I'm sure Dexter will take it nice and calmly too."
Later inside the lab
"YOU DID WHAT?" Dexter yelled and began shaking Kasey too "Kasey, What were you thinking?"
"Why… does… ev…ery…one…ask… me… that… while… shak… ing… me?" Kasey asked while being shook
"CHEEP!" Bullet chirped with more worry to her once again dizzy friend
"Dexter, don't worry about it." Blossom held him back "I'm sure we can figure this out by eight."
"Um… okay…" Dexter stuttered "Hey, about your dad."
"Yeah, what?"
"Um… He's not a Mafia or Yakuza boss or something is he?"
"Dexter, don't be silly. He's just an ordinary everyday hard working man."
"Um… okay… eh heh heh heh… is your mom a dominatrix?"
"NO!"
"Blossom, What's a dominatrix?" Kasey asked
"YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW!" The two teens explained
"I know what will calm you down Dexter." Computress complied "Why don't you finish your new machine?"
"Okay."
"What's he making Computress?" Blossom asked
"He's making a prototype machine that will help locate the missing Nurotomic Protocore." Computress answered
"Once it's done, I'll be able to locate the core where ever it is before Mandark can get his grimy hands on it again."
"Dexter, do you want breakfast?" Ken called as he entered the room
"Oh alright." Dexter spoke "What did Bubbles make today?"
"Something special." Bubbles explained as she entered the room "Because someone special is coming by today hee hee."
"Really? Who?"
"Hey Bubbly!" A blond hair blue eyed young man came in through the door
"CODY!" Bubbles cheered as she jumped in his arms "Come in and have some breakfast! Come on come on!"
"Okay okay, I'm coming!"
"Who's he?" Dexter whispered to Blossom
"That's Cody, Bubbles' boyfriend." Blossom explained "He's a very kind boy who Bubbles met when they were little, He has a bit of a heart problem but thanks to Bubbles helping him he can play soccer now."
"Oh, how nice."
"Thing is he knows that were PowerPuffs."
"Okay."
"He's also a monster and he knows it."
"WHAT?… I see…"
"But as long as he and Bubbles are together he doesn't seem to mind, although they do worry."
"The machine I made to cure monsters is being repaired as we speak, once it's done I hope to cure him as well as Bunny."
"Thank you Dexter, that's sweet."
"Your welcome, maybe I can cure Princess too."
"Humph, why you so worried about her?"
"It's not that, it's just… think about it, what if everyone finds out she's a monster? What will she or more importantly… what will her family lose?"
"I… I never thought about that… Don't worry Dexter, I have faith in you. We all do and maybe my parents will too."
"Yeah… you're right… Thanks."
Some time past as Dexter continued working on his machine when suddenly Buttercup came in the room.
"Hey guys." Buttercup called
"HI" Everyone else said
"Hey, Dexter can you look at something."
"Sure what?" Dexter asked
"This video game, I can't explain it but I can see the dark aura."
"I see it too!" Blossom said and the whole group came by
"(Sniff, sniff) Yup the aura's there but it doesn't seem to be a monster." Poochi explained "Yet!"
"Should we play it?" Kasey asked "What kind of game is it?"
"It's called The Legends of the Shadow Sage for the PC!" Ken answered "It's an Adventure game where you make up an avatar to battle wizards and monsters who use traps, riddles, and tricks. I heard it's pretty short and kind of… bad, personally I like adventure games especially plat formers."
"Personally I like RPGs." Dexter explained "Especially ones that have a deep and engaging story like "Final Fantasy" or better yet the "Tales of" Series."
"Give me a shooter any day, all you have to do is point and shoot, now that's a videogame." a tall brown haired boy came through the door "Uh… oops."
"MITCH!" Buttercup yelled "I told you not to come in!"
"Sorry, I got tired of waiting!"
"Who's he?" Dexter asked Blossom
"That's Mitch Michelson." Blossom explained "He's what you call a bad boy and a delinquent, but Buttercup hangs out with him and has a bit of a crush."
"I see."
"Hey you Johnny Test!" Mitch called to Dexter "What are you looking at?"
"Oh I was looking at a Nunya."
"What the heck's a Nunya?"
"It's a NUNYA BUSINESS!"
"You want to fight smart guy?"
"MITCH!" Buttercup called putting him back on a leash "DOWN!"
"Yes ma'am."
"Good now I want you to try to get along with Dexter."
"Seriously?"
"Is he clean?" Dexter complained as he stood up
"SHAKE HANDS… NOW!"
The boys grew frightened of Buttercup as they both put on fake smiles and shook hands
"Well they look like they'll get along." Cody joked
"What kind of games do you like Cody?" Bubbles asked
"Survival horror games really, I like to be scared sometimes."
"Hi guys!" Bunny called as she came in "Um… you don't mind if Mr. Lee's son Jack hangs with us do you."
"Hello!" A boy with black hair and blue eyes came in
"Oh hi, you must be Jack." Bubbles explained "Nice to meet you."
"So what brings you here?" Cody asked
"Just a little study session." Bunny said then called Bubbles to whisper
"What's wrong?" Bubbles whispered
"We're actually trying to get away from Barry…(Sigh) Whenever I'm with Jack he stares from a corner… with killing intent, I'm worried."
"Bunny, don't worry. Your just exaggerating besides he's just making sure you're happy and he's probably just being over protective again."
"I guess."
"So what are you guys talking about?" Jack asked "And are the PowerPuff Girls here?"
"Uh well no, not yet." Cody answered "But they maybe closer then you think."
"But we have something that may turn into a monster." Bubbles answered
"Really?" Jack asked
"Yeah." Cody continued "It appears that that video game is infected with what makes the monsters."
"Oh I see, so are we going to test it."
"Yeah… So what kind of games you like?"
"Personally I like fighting games, it's fun to play as different characters with different styles to see what fits you."
"Cool!"
"So what are we waiting for?"
"Apparently for those two to stop shaking hands."
"I don't think they're shaking."
"ALRIGHT THAT'S IT!" Buttercup yelled as she separated Mitch and Dexter from crushing each other's hand "Come on lets try this game and see what happens!"
"Shouldn't we wait for the professor or the Powerpuff girls?" Jack asked
"Bah, what's the worst that can happen?" Mitch explained as he snatched the game out of Dexter's hand and started the game in Ken's laptop
"So Blossom." Dexter whispered to her as the rest of the group went to the game "Does Mitch and Jack know your secret?"
"No, they don't." Blossom answered
"Do you think they should know?"
"Maybe… but…"
"Come on guys!" Buttercup called "The game's in"
As the kids all sat around the Ken's laptop but the game wouldn't start up.
"Maybe if I unplug it." Mitch stated as he reached for the off button
"No, not like that!" Ken yelled when suddenly
*FLASH*
Everyone in the room except Poochi and Bullet was gone
"What the?" Poochi panicked then looked at the screen "They're in the game! Wait, I see the boys… but… where are the girls?"
Inside The world of the game!
"Huh, where are we?" Jack asked as he looked around
"I think we're in the game." Cody answered
"What the?" Mitch said as he looked at everyone including himself "What the heck are we wearing?"
The boys all looked at each other
Dexter's still had his glasses and digital Wolo-Watch but his lab coat was open revealing overalls and a tool belt with large bags on the sides and Goggles on his head and a large hammer in his hand.
Cody wore chain mail with a blue-green tunic and a pointy hat with a bow and arrows but strangest of all was that his ears were pointy
Mitch had a horned helmet and heavy looking armor while carrying an axe
Jack wore a red sleeveless gi with yellow edges, a blue head band and black fighting gloves and shoes and a white belt
And Ken wore a pointed purple hat and a long purple cloak
"I guess we all took on different classes as we entered the game." Dexter answered
"GUYS, GUYS CAN YOU HERE ME?" Poochi's voice echoed
"Poochi's is that you?" Ken asked
"Listen you're all inside the game!"
"Yeah, we already figured that part out!" Dexter explained
"What's with these clothes and weapons?" Mitch asked
"I'm looking at a guide to the game on the large computer!" Poochi answered "According to this Dexter is a Black Smith, He can take items and make something new. Cody is an Archer, he's the best for flying enemies and puzzles. Mitch is a Viking, he has the highest attack power and can use his strength to open new paths. Jack is a Monk, a well rounded fighter that can also use magic. And Ken's a Wizard, the only class that can learn all spells!"
"That's cool and all but where are the girls?" Jack asked
"Mwa ha ha ha!" A voice echoed as a dark shadowy male figure appeared in front of the boys "Foolish humans, I am The Shadow Sage, I rule this realm and none shall enter."
"HEY YOU, WHERE ARE THE GIRLS?" Dexter yelled
"They are safe… for now. You must beat my five challenges, save your friends and defeat me in order to go home."
"What are the five challenges?" Cody asked
"The Mermaid Princess in the Temple of Riddles, The Angel Princess in the Maze of Confusion, The Valkyrie Princess in the Forest of Deception, The Magical Princess in the Castel of Darkness and the Fairy Princess by The Peaks of truth."
"So that's where the girls are!" Mitch answered
"Choose wisely!"
"So we can only save one at a time?" Jack explained "And we don't know which princess is which girl."
"We'll take the Temple of Riddles first." Dexter blurted out
"WHAT?" All the boys yelled
"It's the water level right? And everyone hates the water level! So we might as well get it out of the way first!"
"Good point."
"As you wish." The Shadow Sage then teleported the boys in front of the temple which was in the middle of a lake
*Flash*
"Answer the entrance riddle to enter, then answer the five rhyming riddles inside to survive and if you answer the final riddle the Princess lives. Good luck Mwa ha ha ha!
"I guess this is a bad time to mention that I suck at riddles." Jack explained
"Well, try your best anyway." Ken explained
"Whatever lets get this over with." Mitch spoke
"Let do it." Cody ordered "Ready Dex?"
"Ready!" Dex answered as he walked to the door with the first riddle "I love riddles… You've got to be kidding me… A HUMAN BEING!"
The door opened revealing a corridor as the boys walked in
"Let me guess the whole legs thing?" Jack asked
"This'll be easy." Ken happily explained
"You would think so young one." A Deep voice echoed
"Who are you?" Mitch asked
"I am the guardian of the Temple, answer my riddles before your time runs out and you might just save the princess."
"How do we know when our time's up?" Jack asked
*SLAM* *gush*
"You had to ask." Cody spoke up
Suddenly the door behind them shut close and four holes opened up as gallons of water began gushing in filling the room the boys were in
"When you all drown!" The voice sadistically called s the boys panicked
"Here's the first riddle hear my rhyme,
What is it that all people do at the exact same time?"
"Um… LIVE?" Jack said as more water gushed in
"You mean more comes in every time we're wrong?" Ken asked as the boys panicked more
"Um… BREATH?" Cody answered
"We're not going too do either in a few minutes!" Ken explained
"I GOT IT!" Dexter called out "The answer is that… WE ALL GET OLDER!"
"Correct!" The voice called "second riddle…
"Listen carefully and do your thing,
What is the fastest way to measure a string?"
"By Yards?" Mitch answered
"NO, YOU START FROM THE MIDDLE AND GO TO ONE END!" Dexter answered
"Correct!" The voice called "Third riddle…"
"We'll leave the rest to you Dex!" Ken explained as the boys agreed
"Bring it on!" Dexter called out with confidence
"I have sometimes have a mouth but I never talk,
You sometimes see me run but I never walk,
I have three forms on the ground or from the skies,
I am a very elemental thing and always a different size…
WHAT AM I?"
"How ironic." Dexter explained "IT'S WATER!"
"Correct!.. Fourth riddle…
"I have a face but no eyes to see,
I have two hands and sometimes three,
When you want to know you simply don't ask,
Look at me and the answer comes at last…
WHAT AM I?"
"A CLOCK!"
"Very good, Final riddle…
"HURRY!" Cody yelled as the water reached closer to the ceiling
"I am a room but I'm never inside,
I'm either in the grass or on a tree's hide,
I have no ceiling or walls but I do have a roof,
If I want to make more of myself I simply go POOF!
WHAT AM I?"
"IT'S A (glug, glug)" Dexter tries to answer as he sank to the floor, he then noticed the other boys as they were running out of air, Dexter struggles to get his tool belt off and once gone he swam to the ceiling where there was just enough room for his mouth "(GASP) A MUSHROOM!"
Suddenly the water began gushing out a door and flushed the boys into another room where they coughed and gasped for air. Once they all stood up they looked at a blue orb floating above a pool of more water and inside asleep was a mermaid with a beautiful bluish green tail, blue shells covering her chest and long reddish hair
"Blossom!" Dexter called
"No wonder why he wanted to come here first." Mitch whispered to the others as they snickered
"So… that's it?" Jack asked "Where's the guardian?"
Suddenly out of the pool in the room a large leviathan appeared and wrapped around the orb and stared at the boys
"You had to ask." Cody said "Again."
"You may have answered my riddles…" The large eel like creature spoke "But my final riddle hasn't been answered in a thousand years!"
"Bring it on!" Dexter said with determination
"We're counting on you Dex!" Ken explained "And so is Blossom!"
"Your friends can help too if they want." The eel explained "Fail and the princess here will be my supper."
"I'm ready." Dexter explained
"I have billions of eyes but I live in darkness,
I have millions of ears yet only four lobes,
I have no Muscle but I rule two hemispheres…
WHAT AM I?"
"… WHAT KIND OF STUPID RIDDLE IS THAT?" Mitch panicked "Um… A FLY"
"Nah… It's the EARTH!" Jack yelled
"NO…" Cody spoke up "Let Dexter handle this"
The boys looked at Dexter as he was deep in thought, suddenly he had his answer
"It's really quite simple." Dexter explained as he walked towards the monster "The answer is… THE HUMAN BRAIN!"
Suddenly the orb cracked open and Blossom floated down to Dexter's arms and woke up
"Blossom!" Dexter cheered "Thank goodness!"
"Huh… what… Dexter?… DEXTER!" Blossom cheered as she hugged her savior and looked around "What's going on? Why are you all dressed like that? And… WHY AM I A FISH?"
"Good job young ones." The eel said as the boys began to disappear "But more challenges await you."
*Flash*
The group all appeared back where they started and after explaining the story to Blossom, put her in the pond and got ready for the next task
"I see so we are all in this game?" Blossom asked
"That's right." Dexter answered "But before we go home, we have to save the others."
"Alright Dexter, just be careful okay."
"I will… Okay… Um, Cody you pick next."
"Okay Dex!" Cody spoke and turned to the Shadow Sage "I choose… The Maze of Confusion."
"Good…Off you go!" The sage spoke as he sent the boys off
*Flash*
"Good luck!" Blossom said "Hm… I wonder if I can swim?"
The Maze of Confusion
The boys all walked in until they saw five entrances
"Okay, so we each take an entrance?" Jack asked "Right?"
"Lets just get this over with." Mitch spoke up
The boys all went through an entrance hoping to find one of the girls and an exit. Dexter alone on a bridge looked around the entire maze
"This reminds me of the painting Relativity By M.C. Escher." Dexter explained to himself "But there has to be an exit."
"Hey Dex!" Jack called as he was… Standing on the ceiling? "What are you doing upside down?"
"What do you mean? You're upside down!"
"No, you two are on the walls!" Cody spoke as the two looked at him on the wall
"YOU'RE ON THE WALL!" The two yelled
"No, he's on the ceiling." Mitch called on the other wall "You're on the wall."
Okay, this is confusing." Dexter explained "Has anyone seen Ken?"
"Right here!" Ken called making Dexter look to the side downward as he saw Ken looking back at him "How are you waking on the bottom Dex?"
"THIS PLACE DEFIES THE LAWS OF PHYSICS AND GRAVITY AS WE KNOW IT!"
"Okay, so…" Jack spoke in confusion "Which way is up?"
"I don't know." Cody spoke as he leaned against a wall "But there must be a way out of heeeeeeeeeerrrrrreeeeee!"
Cody fell through a trap in the wall making the others panic
"CODY!" They all called
Downstairs…I think
Cody opened his eyes to see iron bars around his legs, he was able to sit up but unable to move his Legs
"Huh… where am I?" He asked
"You are in the sacred temple of our great lord Rah!" A tall goofy looking minotaur asked "And inside Queen Upshi's sacred tomb."
"Huh… uh who are you guys?"
"I am Nahoo high priest and guardian of this maze and this is my assistant Aryu."
"Delighted to meet you." The small goofy looking minotaur Aryu spoke
"Uh hello." Cody spoke nervously
"Now who are you?" Nahoo asked
"Yes, I understand."
"No you don't, I said now who are you?"
"But you explained that already."
"So you will not tell us?"
"Why do I have to explain anything?"
"Alright, Aryu you try."
"Very well master." Aryu spoke "Listen, I am Aryu right?"
"No, wrong." Cody explained "It's "I am, You are" got it?"
"Oh I see, Master he is You are!"
"So you are You are?" Nahoo asked
"No, I am not!" Cody grew frustrated
"Oh, so you are not You are you are Not!"
"But I thought you were You are." Aryu explained
"I AM NOT… YOU ARE!" Cody yelled
"I am not You are, I am Aryu."
"(Clears throat) Listen, let us get this sorted out, okay? I am not Not, okay?"
"Okay!" The two minotaurs spoke
"I am not You are, Okay?"
"Okay!"
"But you are Nahoo and you are Aryu, okay?"
"Okay!"
"Good, now everything is settled."
"No it not." Nahoo explained
"What do you mean?"
"Now who are you?"
"DAH, STOP IT I CAN'T STAND ANYMORE!"
"Of course you cant stand anymore." Aryu explained "We tied you to the sacrificial altar and serves you right."
"Yes, all who trespass here must die." Nahoo spoke
"(gulp) All?" Cody gulped
"Yes, legends say that Upshi will rise and rule once again Rah has his fill of human sacrifices."
"Oh… uh… well you see um… my character's actually an elf, see?… Pointy ears!"
"Oh don't worry." Aryu spoke "We've been known to improvise."
"Yes, Upshi will rise once he has his fill." Nahoo cheered
"Who Rah?"
"And Upshi rises!" The two began to sing and dance
"Hoorah and up she rises!
Hoorah and up she rises!
Hoorah and up she rises!
Better in the morning!"
'These two are making me sea sick.' Cody thought to himself then began looking around the room until he saw the same orb that held Blossom only this time Bubbles was inside 'Bubbles! Okay, I found her… but how do I get her out?… My arrows, I still have them… Okay, here goes nothing."
*SHATTER*
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?" Nahoo asked with rage
"Master look!" Aryu spoke calming down his master
"Huh… where am I?" Bubbles who was now in a toga with sandals a halo and wings asked as she looked around the room "CODY!"
"Bubbles!" Cody called as he realized he was suddenly free "Alright!"
"(Gasp) It is Upshi!" Nahoo cheered "She has risen again!"
"Upshi?" Cody asked
"It's true look!" Aryu said as he pointed to a very familiar figure on the wall as it also had wings, a toga and pig tails
"You have got to be kidding me!"
"UPSHI RISES UPSHI RISES!" the two chanted as they bowed to Bubbles
"Um… I'm sorry but I'm not rising anywhere." Bubbles explained in confusion "Um excuse me, N-Now who are you?"
"The great one, she knows our names!" Nahoo cheered
"No I don't, if I did I wouldn't be saying Now who are you."
"NO… NO, NO NOT AGAIN, I AM NOT GOING THROUGH ALL THAT AGAIN!" Cody yelled as he picked up Bubbles and ran towards the exit "Come on Bubbles quick!"
*Flash*
Suddenly in the same fashion the entire group now with Bubbles was now back at where they started
"Oh finally, we're safe." Cody sighed as he but Bubbles down "How about you guys?"
"I don't think they can answer you Cody." Blossom explained as she laughed at the dizzy and exhausted crew
"Blossom?" Bubbles spoke in shock "You're a mermaid?"
"Yeah, we all take the role of a captured being."
"So that's why I have wings?"
"Exactly! So where are you boys going next?"
"I CHOOSE!" Mitch called in frustration as he got up "I Choose… The Forest of Deception!"
"Very well!" The Shadow Sage spoke as he sent the boys on their way
*Flash*
"BOYS!" Bubbles called but it was too late
"Don't worry Bubbles." Blossom spoke calming her friend "Just have faith is the boys."
"Okay…"
The Forest of Deception
"Look a sign!" Dexter explained as the group walked up to it
"What does it say?" Ken asked
"Lets see…" Jack began reading it "It says "The Forest of Deception, I'd turn back if I were you!" good advice."
Jack tried to sneak away only to be stopped by Mitch and Cody
"Look another sign!" Dexer explained as they walked to it and the treasure chest under it "To defeat the guardians use the rules of the famous game!"
"What does that mean?" Ken asked
"Who knows, lets open her up and see what's inside!" Mitch spoke as he opened the chest "Whoa, check this out!"
The boys all looked inside the chest and found three weapons, a sword, an old fashioned riffle and a cloak
"I'll try the rifle." Dexter said as he held on to large barrel "Hasta la vista, baby. Heh heh."
"So What does this cloak do?" Jack asked as he put it on and disappeared "AWESOME… I'm invisible!"
"I'll take the sword!" Cody called as he grabbed the blade "Cool."
"Okay, now all we have to do is find the orb holding the princess." Ken spoke as the team moved out
"RIGHT!"
Much Later
"LOOK!" Dexter pointed to the orb where the princess was "Finally!"
"So where are the guardians?" Jack asked "Did we luck out or something?"
"Sorry apple head." Mitch teased "We're not that lucky."
"Apple head?"
"Dude your hair may be black but it's long, puffy and you have a stem."
"It's a cowlick!"
"Knock it off you two!" Dexter ordered
"Wait!" Ken spoke up " I hear something."
Suddenly the ground began to shake and out came the three guardians. The first was a giant made of rocks, the second was a paper thin ghost and the third was a floating torso of knight's armor with a helmet and two lances for arms
"We are the guardians!" the rock creature spoke
"Can you find out our secret and defeat us?" The ghost asked
"If you can't… you will DIE! The armor shouted as they charged at the group
The fight began and even with the new weapons they weren't even denting them
"Ill crush you!" The rock creature called to Cody as the sword did nothing
"I have you covered!" The ghost yelled at Dexter as his shots just bounced off him
"I'll cut you in half!" The armor spoke as it chased Jack even though he was
was invisible
"Those weapons are useless!" Ken explained as he and Mitch got out of the way "How do we beat them?"
"I don't know!" Mitch yelled in frustration, then suddenly thought of something "Wait, what did that sign say when we entered?"
"Uh… "To defeat the guardians use the rules of the famous game!" I think?"
"The famous game?… I GOT IT! Guys listen! Jack use the Cloak to cover the rock guy! Cody you have to use the sword on the ghost! And Dexter you have to shoot the knight!"
"OKAY!" The boys called as they switch opponents
"I got you!" Jack yelled as he took off his cloak and covered the head of the rock creature
"NO!" The rock thing yelled as he fell to pieces
"It worked!"
"My turn! HAA!" Cody shouted as he sliced the ghost in half
"It can't be!" The ghost yelled as it disintegrated
"We did it!"
"There's an old saying we have back in our world!" Dexter teased the knight "Never bring a knife to a gun fight!"
*BANG*
"Fare thee well!" The knight fell apart
"Way to go Mitch!… but how did you know?"
"Well, the sign said "The Famous Game" Right?" Mitch asked as the others shook their heads "So what game is more famous then Rock, Paper, Scissors?"
"I get it!" Jack explained "The riffle and the giant was rock, the cloak and the ghost was paper and the sword and the knife was scissors!"
"So that's it!" Cody continued "Paper covers rock, Scissors cuts paper and Rock crushes scissors!"
"Not bad Mitch!" Ken congratulated
"Thanks guys!" Mitch spoke then looked at the now freed princess "Look!"
The boys looked at the Valkyrie as she held a sword and shield she wore a helmet and had on revealing armor and a skirt
"AHH! Why the heck am I in a skirt?" The Valkyrie yelled
"Don't worry Buttercup!" Mitch spoke as he tried to calm her down "Besides you look good in a skirt."
"Uh-oh." Dexter said as he and the others slowly backed away
"Nice knowing you Mitch." Cody meekly explained
"Eh heh heh heh." Jack nervously chuckled
"bye bye." Ken whispered
"What's wrong guys?" Mitch asked then turned to Buttercup who was now literally fuming with an intent to kill
"What… did… You… SAY?" Buttercup growled as she stomped towards Mitch
"Mommy."
*CENSORED!*
Part 2:
"Feel better?" Dexter asked
"Much." Buttercup explained as she looked down on the battered Mitch "Can we go now?"
*Flash*
Back at the pond the girls were reunited and the boys prepared for the next trip.
"Buttercup!" Blossom called as Buttercup walked over to her still finned friend
"What happened to you guys?" Buttercup asked
"We're in the same boat as you!" Bubbles explained "Uh… What happened to Mitch?"
"Don't ask." The four still conscious boys spoke
"Okay… um… Jack, why don't you pick next location?" Dexter asked
"Sure thing… hmm…" Jack thought for a moment "I pick… The Castle of Darkness!"
"So be it!" The Sage's boomed sending the five boys to the castle
*Flash*
The boys disappeared again leaving the girls with worry, except Buttercup who was left with Frustration
"I hate this." Buttercup ranted "I can't believe we're on the sidelines for this story, the show's called PowerPuff Girls Z for crying out loud!"
"I know how you feel Buttercup." Blossom spoke "But all we can do is trust the boys for now."
"I guess… (Sigh)… Then again this ain't so bad."
"Speak for yourself, at least you still have legs."
Meanwhile at the scary Castle
"Why isn't there a sign here that says I'd turn back if I were you?" Cody asked
"What's the matter?" Mitch teased "Scared?"
"I am!" Ken spoke
"Hey guys, I just thought of something." Jack spoke up "What if there's a Vampire ruling the castle or something?"
"Don't be ridiculous." Dexter explained "There's no such thing as Vampires."
Suddenly behind Dexter a tower of fire appeared then suddenly a dark figure appeared out of the flame facing away from the group
"ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT!" The vampire yelled "Who called so loud?"
Excuse me while I get my turtle neck
"Holy Mother of Einstein!" Dexter said in shock making the dark figure look at the boys "I thought you were a myth!"
"Huh, I am not even a mister! I am a Count and Guardian of the Castle!"
"We're dead." Mitch whispered
"You sure are my friends." The Vampire said as he snapped his fingers causing skeleton hands to grab Dexter and Mitch and stuff them in a coffin "Mwa ha ha ha!"
"Hey!" Dexter yelled from the inside "Let us out!"
"Wait until I get my hands on you overgrown fruit bat!" Mitch followed
"Why are you doing this?" Cody yelled at the vampire
"The boy with the Glasses is the smartest one and the other one is the toughest one." The Vampire explained "My three challenges are for you."
The Vampire stood aside revealing five long logs on the floor all in a row
"If you want to free your friends and the Princess solve this puzzle… Change these five logs into three without removing any."
"That's impossible!" Cody yelled
"No it's not!" Jack spoke "Ken stay here, Cody help me."
Jack and Cody moved the two logs on the end to the top to look like a big "m"
"That didn't work!" Cody explained
"Yes it did!" Ken explained as he looked from the side
"Let me see!" To Cody it looked like a backwards "E" then he realized it was basically a "3" "Way to go Jack, how did you know?"
"I hate riddles but I love puzzles." Jack explained "And it helps when you have a super cute tutor."
"Very good, next puzzle "The vampire yelled as he made the logs disappear
"Here it comes!" Ken spoke
Suddenly writing on the dirt appeared first was an "!" Then "an a inside a circle" then "#" then "$" then it suddenly stopped
"What comes next?" The vampire asked
"That's easy." Jack spoke as he drew a "%"
"How did you know?" Cody asked
"Because those are the shift sighs for the numbers on the Keyboards."
"Oh yeah!" Ken spoke up
"Third challenge." The Vampire spoke
"Bring it on!" Jack said when suddenly a large wall with hanging letters were on hooks "What's this?"
"Here's your next challenge… You must find my three favorite letters and hand them to me, but you better hurry I'm getting hungry."
"Oh man, what do we do." Cody began to panic as he stared at the nervous Jack
"I'm so nervous my blood's boiling." Ken shook
"Hmm… I like my blood nice and hot." The Vampire teased
"B-B-Blood? Uh-oh… Come on Jack think… I GOT IT!" Jack called out as he grabbed and gave the Vampire the letters A, B, and O
"Impossible!" The vampire said in shock as the orb revealing Bunny who was now in a witch costume appeared
"Way to go Jack!" Cody cheered as he gave him a pat on the back "But how'd you know?"
"Bunny's tutoring me in biology." Jack explained "And we learned about Blood Types!"
"I get it." Ken explained "Type A, Type B, Type AB and Type O."
"And now for your final challenge." The now malicious Vampire spoke
"Final challenge?" Jack asked in confusion "But you said there was only three."
"If you truly want to win you must defeat me in combat MWA HA HA HA!" The vampire called as millions of bats flew out surrounding the trio "HAVE AT THEE!"
"We don't have to fight you!" Ken spoke halting the action
"And why is that?"
"Because my vampire friend, if you look out the window you will see the sun coming up!"
"MWA HA HA HA! Foolish boy I cannot be killed by sunlight!" The Vampire laughed then looked at the boys who all gave him strange looks "WHAT?"
"So you're not effected by sunlight, right?" Cody asked
"Does that mean you sparkle rainbows or something?" Jack asked
The vampire stood still as the bats disappeared and he… Began to cry?
"… (Sniff)…You know what, FORGET YOU GUYS!" The big cry baby spoke as he climbed back in his coffin "Take your friends and leave me alone."
The Vampire climbed in his coffin and suddenly the wall rotated into a hidden room leaving the boys dumbfounded
"Awk-ward." Cody explained
"That… was weird." Jack followed
"Even real Vampires hate it!" Ken explained "He is a real vampire right?"
Suddenly the orb cracked open and Bunny stood up using her broom for support
"Huh… W-Where am I?" Bunny asked then turned to the boys "Jack!"
"Bunny, I'm glad you're okay!" Jack said as he put his hand on her shoulder sending every one back to the lake "Lets get out of here."
*Flash*
"Welcome back!" Blossom spoke up
"Hey guys!" Bunny called then looked at her friends "I feel like this is Halloween or something."
"Okay, four down one to go!" Ken explained then turned to the older boys "What's wrong guys?"
"I don't know." Cody explained "But it feels like we're forgetting something."
"Uh… guys?" Bubbles called out "What's with the coffin?"
"What coffin?" Jack asked as the boys all turned to the coffin… THAT DEXTER AND MITCH WERE STILL INSIDE "AHH THAT'S WHAT WE FORGOT!"
Jack and Cody ran to the coffin and ripped the top right off revealing Dexter and Mitch gasping for air
"Sorry guys." The three boys apologized
"You okay?" Ken asked as they continued gasping for air
"Yeah we're okay." Mitch explained
"Hey Mitch." Dexter called out
"Yeah Dexter?"
"I want to talk to you about your Deodorant."
"What are you talking about Dex? I don't wear Deodorant."
"I know, that's why I want to talk to you about it."
"Eh-Hem, Boys focus!" Buttercup ordered "You still have to save Kasey."
"Sorry!" The boys apologized
"Final choice is yours Ken!" Dexter explained
"Well then lets go to the final destination, The Peaks of Truth." Ken called out
*Flash*
The boys arrived in a meadow with a fork in the road with a pole on the middle
"Hey, if we pull that fork out what will happen?" Mitch asked
"It's an expression Mitch." Dexter explained "A fork in the road is one road split into two."
"So where do we go?" Jack asked
"You must figure out the truth." An old man with a cane came by "You will reach your destination when you figure out the truth."
"What do you mean?" Cody asked
"One village is a Village of Liars and the other village is the Village of Truth Tellers and only one village will help you, now what do you need?"
"Well sir." Ken spoke up "Can you take us to your village?"
"Of course follow me."
The old man took one of the paths and the boys followed
"I don't get it." Mitch explained
"I do!" Dexter spoke "We don't know what village the old man is from right? SO… by asking him that request we win either way. If he was a liar then asking him to take us to his village will be right because if we went to the village of Liars he would be telling the truth, so by taking us to the Truth Tellers he's actually lying. As for being a truth teller he would take us to the village of Truth Tellers because he's telling the truth, Understand?"
"Uh… Could you repeat that last part?"
"Which last part?"
"Oh everything after "I do!"."
"Okay young ones." The old man spoke "The guardian is right in front of the peaks past the forest, keep going and you can save your friend."
"Thank you sir!" The boys all spoke a then walked off past the forest
"Okay." Mitch spoke still confused "Explain it to me again."
"Fine." Dexter whined "I'll go slowly."
"GUYS LOOK!" Ken called as he saw two spheres floating
"Two spears?" Cody asked
"That little one must be inside one of them." Jack explained
"But how do we know which one she's in?" Ken asked
"Is that the question you want us to answer?" A voice came out of nowhere
"Who said that?" Ken asked
"Or maybe it's that question." Another voice spoke
Suddenly in a big light show two wizards, a black one and a white one, each stood in front of the orbs
"We are the guardians of the peaks." the black wizard explained
"And we hold the fairy princess hostage." The white wizard followed
"To save her you must complete our challenge."
"And discover the truth."
"So what do we have to do?" Ken asked
"Be careful of what you say young one." The black wizard continued
"The challenge is that you must ask only one question." The white wizard finished
"One?" Ken asked
"Was that your question?" The Black wizard asked
"NO!"
"Oh brother, leave him alone." The white wizard snickered
"Okay… so…"
"One of us tells only lies." The Black wizard started
"The other only tells the truth." The White wizard continued
"Ask us one question and you may save your friend."
"Then you guess which one has her."
"Guess right and she goes free."
"Guess wrong and you will never see her again."
"NOW… What is your question?" Both wizards asked making the boys huddle
"Why don't we just ask which one has Kasey?" Mitch asked
"Because they'll both say they have her." Dexter answered
The boys thought and thought and thought and thought… until…
"I got it!" Ken spoke up then walked over to the wizards "I have my question!"
"Yes!" The wizards looked on with intrigue
"If you two had switched roles, who would you say has my friend Kasey?"
"WHAT KIND OF STUPID QUESTION IS THAT?" Mitch panicked
"We're doomed." Jack cried
"MAN." Cody growled
"Don't worry guys." Dexter spoke up making the others look at him "Ken's got this."
The wizards thought for a moment then suddenly gave their answers
"That's easy." The Black wizard spoke up "He has your friend."
"It's true." The White wizard followed "I have her right behind me."
"Okay then." Ken perked up then walked over to the black wizard "You have my friend, and now I would like to have her back please."
The orb broke apart and in the palm of Ken's hand was a tiny little fairy
"Kasey?" Ken asked
"Where am I?" Kasey asked as she looked around to see the giant Ken "Ken?"
"Kasey? Is that you?"
"I-I think so… Why am I so small?"
"Long story, lets get back to your sister."
"Thanks Ken."
"Young one." The Black wizard asked "How did you know that I had your friend, when I said my brother had her?"
"Yes my dear boy." The white wizard continued "Tell us."
"Okay I will." Ken began "If you were the truth teller then you would answer truthfully what the liar would say meaning he would say her had her because that would be the truth. On the other hand the lair would couldn't say you had her because that would be the truth even though that's what you would have said so he said he had her so it could be a lie. So by making you switch roles my answer would have been the opposite of what your answers were. Understand?"
"Uuuuuh." The wizards stood stunned
"You guys understand right?"
"Uuuuuh." Cody, Jack and Mitch all uttered
"Forget it Ken." Dexter explained "Nobody's going to get it… Lets go home."
*Flash*
Back at the pond
"Kasey!" Blossom cheered "You're safe! You're sound! You're… small…er."
"Don't remind me." Kasey glowered as she stood on Blossom's hand
"Oh, don't worry." Mitch teased as he rubbed his finger on her head "You're actually kind of cute now."
*CHOMP*
"YEOUCH!" Mitch screamed as he blew on his finger
"You totally deserved that dude." Jack stated as the boys laughed
"Ha ha ha Laugh it up."
"So all we do now is beat the Shadow Sage." Cody explained
"So… where is he?" Jack asked
*Flash*
Uh-oh, back to the lab again!
*Crash*
The whole group all landed in a pile on top of each other forcing Bullet to act like a doll again and Poochi moved over to the pile
"What happened?" Poochi asked
"I-I don't know." Bunny said on top
"Ow…" Cody called out "Is every one okay?"
"I think so." Blossom answered
"HEY!" Buttercup called "WHO'S HAND IS THAT?"
"Sorry, that's mine." Bubbles responded
"WILL YOU GUYS PLEASE GET OFF OF ME!" Dexter called from the bottom
The group responded and helped Dexter back to his feet
"Hey, we're out of the game!" Jack realized
"And we're all back to normal!" Kasey cheered "AND I'M NOT TINY ANY MORE, YAY!"
"Hey wait." Mitch spoke up "There's no final boss?"
"Uh… Guys?" Ken said as he pointed to his laptop as the Shadow Sage came out
"So, you think you can beat me and throw me away?" The sage glowered "FOOLS! I shall never be thrown away!"
Suddenly the sage grew four arms and grabbed Dexter, Cody, Mitch and Jack, he then zapped them with magic making them all scream out in pain
"Oh no, That's why he brought us back." Ken explained "We're powerless back home."
"AAAAAHHH!" The boys screamed as the sage zapped them
"MWA HA HA HA!" The sage laughed
"What do we do?" Bubbles asked
"… We don't have a choice." Blossom spoke up
"What do you mean Ms. Blossom?" Bunny asked
"The boys are powerless here, but we're not."
"But Blossom, Jack and Mitch don't know about our powers." Buttercup explained
"I know that, but if we don't do something…"
"What do we do then?" Kasey asked
"I say we do it!" Bubbles answered
"Lets go!" Buttercup pumped up
"Alright!" Bunny agreed
"Come on Bullet!" Kasey called and Bullet jumped on her shoulder
"Cheep!" Bullet chirped
The girls all stood in front of the sage and did what they had to do
"Hyper Blossom!"
"Rolling Bubbles!"
"Powered Buttercup!"
"Starry Bunny!"
"Burning Bloom!"
"PowerPuff Girls Z!"
"Impossible!" The sage panicked
"The Lovely Fighting Science Legend, PowerPuff Girls Z!"
"Buttercup?" Mitch called out in shock "You're a PowerPuff?… No way!"
"Bunny, You too?" Jack spoke "I don't believe it!"
"Put the boys down now!" Blossom ordered
"Never!" The sage growled
"Lets get him girls!"
"Right!" All the girls called as they attacked with computer puns
"Glitchy Yo-Yo!" (Shooting Yo-Yo)
"Rebooting Bubbles!" (Bursting Bubbles)
"Deleting Swing!" (Sonic Swing)
"Debugging Cannon!" (Kendama Cannon)
"Bullet Ball: Hacking Kick!" (Soccer Goal Kick)
*BOOM*
"NOOOOO!" The sage screamed as he took the attacks then turned into Zeroes and Ones then disappeared, making the boys fall to the floor
*Tumble*
"Oh my head." Cody complained
"Are you okay?" Bubbles asked as she sat on her knees
"Never mind us, What about you?" Mitch panicked "You're all Powerpuff Girls!"
"I always wanted to meet the PowerPuff Girls!" Jack jumped with glee "But to find out my neighbor is one, who would have guessed right guys?"
"Uh!" Cody looked away
"Ah heh heh." Dexter nervously chuckled
"Well… you see…" Ken uttered
"YOU ALL KNEW?" Mitch and Jack threw a fit
"Boys relax!" Bubbles called out
"Sorry I couldn't tell you Jack." Bunny apologized "But… PLEASE, DON'T TELL MY BROTHER PLEASE!"
"Don't worry Bunny, I won't." Jack explained "Besides I think I understand you and your brother a little more."
"What do you mean?"
"Well you and your brother are the only family you two have left, right, I'll bet he thinks I'm trying to take you away from him and if he found out you were a PowerPuff he'd think you won't need him anymore."
"Yes, exactly."
"I'll bet you can teach him a thing or two, like you do when you're tutoring me. Besides, I can't help it that I like you."
"J-Jack! You… you like me?"
"HUH, NO… I mean I do, It's just…"
"Don't worry…" Bunny smiled as she blushed and twiddled her fingers, suddenly the two burst out in laughter.
Meanwhile Mitch was helped up by Buttercup
"Of all the girls in the world." Mitch Began "You just had to be a PowerPuff girl."
"And why exactly don't you believe I could be a PowerPuff Girl?" Buttercup teased
"Well mainly because I found out the hard way (more then once) that you hate skirts."
"Oh… That…don't remind me."
"I can't help it, you have nice legs cutie."
"I TOLD YOU NOT TO CALL ME THAT!"
Buttercup scoffed as she turned away from Mitch who was snickering as she hid her blush indicating she actually liked being called that
"THAT GOES FOR YOU TOO MR. AUTHOR!"
Sheesh, you try to be nice to some people and you get bit right in the butt
"We better get going, today's been way too hectic for me." Blossom said
"Hectic for you?" Dexter complained "You may have saved us in the end, but we did all the work."
"Hee hee, I know."
"Point is I'm glad you're all safe."
"Me too!… Oh Dex don't forget."
"Forget what?"
"You have to be home by eight."
"I… Uh… Sure… heh heh… no problem."
"Thanks Dexter, Come on Kasey."
"Okay!" Kasey Called as she and Bullet went over to her sister "Bye Dexter!"
"Uh… okay…" Dexter nervously waved "… Bye… heh heh heh."
"Dude, relax." Mitch spoke as he put his hand on Dexter's shoulder "We survived a video game world, rescued the girls and found out they were Super heroes! What could possibly be worse then that?"
"Blossom's parents invited me over for dinner… and I've never met them before."
"Oh…" Cody squeaked
"Yikes." Jack muttered
"Well… nice knowing you Dex." Mitch nervously teased
"OH WILL YOU BOYS KNOCK IT OFF!" Buttercup scolded
"Don't worry Dexter." Bubbles reassured
"You'll do fine." Bunny explained
"(Gulp) I hope so." Dexter shook
7:30 in front of Blossom's house
Dexter, now in his street clothes, took deep breaths and pumped himself up
"I CAN DO THIS!" Dexter said sternly as he moved his finger closer and closer to the door bell when suddenly "I can't do this."
Buck bu-buck buuuck
"Okay Dexter relax." Dexter said calming himself down "Just knock on the door and if no one's home you just walk away."
Dexter raised his hand in a fist and inched it closer to the door when suddenly
*tap*
"Oh well, I guess no one's home." Dexter said as he turned around
"HI DEXTER!" Kasey called from the upstairs window surprising Dexter
"DAHH! Kasey!… Hi…. Um… is your sister home?"
"Hello?" The girls mother opened the door to greet the geek "Oh, can I help you?"
"OH, HELLO DEXTER MY NAME IS BLOSSOM'S MOM, I MEAN HELLO BLOSSOM'S MOM MY NAME IS DEXTER!"
"Hee hee hee aren't you funny, please come in and relax."
"Um… (Clears throat)… Thank you ma'am."
Dexter walked into the house and saw everything a normal house should be
"DAH I give up!" The father screamed
"What's the matter dear?" The mother said
"You were right, we should have never got a used HD Flat screen TV. I can't seem to fix the blasted thing. We're going to have to get a new one."
"Don't worry, why don't you relax and help me set up the table."
"Yes dear."
"Dexter why don't you make yourself at home."
"Okay ma'am." Dexter replied
As the two adults went into the kitchen Dexter pressed a few buttons on his watch and his tool kit appeared, he went over to the Flat Screen and turned it over where he did his magic.
A few minutes later
"There all done!" Dexter said as he turned the TV back around
"Excuse me." the Father angrily asked "But what are you doing?"
"Try the TV now sir." Dexter explained and the father complied and saw the game he was trying to look at, now in better quality then before.
"OH MY GOSH!" The father said in shock "How did you do that?"
"Well, I looked in the back and saw some wires were loose and others were damaged, some electronic devices when not properly dusted can damage the insides if not vented, sometimes little insects crawl inside too. There are adhesive tapes that can be used for wires to help conduct the electricity and most wires can easily be replaced if you show them off in an electronics store."
"Amazing." The mother said as she watched
"Plus the wires extending to the outside or another room should go under and never on the side because by applying pressure the inner wires break down losing quality and the whole signal."
"Really?" Both parents said
"And try not to use magnets to fix electronic thing like this, it can permanently ruin the entire picture and sound, but there is a trick to fix it."
"Tell me Dexter." The father spoke "How do you know so much about electronics?"
"Well… ever since I was little I always loved to tinker with things and sometimes invent."
"Do you play sports?"
"No, sorry to disappoint you, but I could never get into sports and my father being a sports buff made it kind of hard to get along."
"I see, your father was hoping you would be good at sports since he was. But since you found another talent you two didn't really get along."
"Exactly, and my father never accepted the fact that I could fix and build better, it just hurts his pride. You don't want to see how my dad fixes his cars!"
"Well, at least your honest Dexter. I just hope someday your father see that there are a lot more talents in the world."
"You have a good head on your shoulders Dexter." The mother complemented
"Thank you Ma'am." Dexter spoke up now calm to the adults
"You should clean your glasses."
"Okay." Dexter took off his glasses and wiped them with his cloth and put them back on to look at the Mother "Is something wrong?"
"You uh… have a smudge on the lens."
"Really?" Dexter wiped his glasses again
'MY GOODNESS!' The mother's brain exploded at Dexter's face
"Is something wrong?" Dexter asked as he put his glasses back on
"No nothing… Dexter, why don't you wait here? We'll start serving."
"Okay, I could help."
"No need. thank you."
The two adults left for the kitchen but stopped at the front door
"He's everything that Kasey said and more!" The father stated
"No wonder why Blossom likes him." The mother explained "I'm envious, I wish I was young again."
"Oh come on now."
"You should have seen him on the front porch, he was just like you when you met my parents!"
"I'm home." Blossom came in through the door with drinks "Is everything okay."
"Blossom, about that Dexter boy." The mother began "Don't lose him now!"
"Huh?"
"I'll take those." The father said as he grabbed the drinks "Don't get too ahead of yourselves now and tell that nice young man he can come by any time."
"What?"
"Go and get him we'll be serving now." The mother finished "Okay dear?"
"Okay."
The parents walked off into the dining room leaving Blossom to her thoughts
'They like him!' Blossom smiled as she thought to herself 'THEY REALLY LIKE HIM!'
Blossom walked into the room where Dexter was petting Bullet as Kasey stood by him
"Hey Dex." Blossom blushed
"Hey Blossom." Dexter responded
"So what do you think of my parents?"
"They seem nice and… very understanding, I'm a bit envious. My parents were never like that."
"Okay, come on lets eat."
Blossom grabbed Dexter's hand and the too walked off with Kasey and Bullet behind ready to enjoy dinner with family
To be continued!
Author's notes: Longest… chapter… EVAAAR! Trying to give each boy a short story was a lot of work, that's why it took so long… SORRY for the wait. Anywho I decided to give Jack bit of a light hearted personality plus Dexter's and Blossom's relation ship seems to be growing don't you think? Don't worry RRB fans they'll show up… eventually.
Rant: I don't know if Cartoon Network's trolling us, but you have to admit… SEEING TOM AND TOONAMI ON APRIL 1ST WAS THE MOST AWESOME APRIL FOOLS PRANK EVER! Prank or not every one that watched adult swim that night was in Heaven! Now on Twitter, Adult Swim posted #BringBackToonami, and man were there a lot of tweets and Steven Blum was leading the charge with other anime voice actors too. I already made a twitter account just to say I want it back too, if you haven't done it yet… then… WHAT IN THE NAME OF ALL THING HOLY ARE YOU WAITING FOR …TWEET NOW STUPID! THEY'RE LISTENING! Anyway if this works (PLEASE OH LORD ABOVE, PLEASE) that could mean more anime in the states. I hope that when they make a new Toonami they make one for adult swim (YAY MORE UNCUT AND GOOD ANIME) and one for the kids. The possibilities are endless people, on Adult swim we could see Naruto Shippuden (Uncut, since Disney got rid of it), One Piece (Funi dub Of course), Fairy Tail, Tiger and Buny, Panty and Stocking with Garter belt and so much more. As for the kids hopefully we can get Digimon Xros wars, Inazuma Eleven, Sgt. Frog (I know some people want this on Adult Swim, but who wants to stay up 1 or 2 o'clock to watch this? And yes I know about episode 197, even for a kids show (By Japanese standards) That's just too disturbing. I'm sure Funimation can work something out, they did for DBZKai) and dare I say it… PPGZ (Hopefully redubbed) ! And for both… what else…GUNDAM! And these are just some of the shows I want to see!
Speaking of a redub I'm hoping CN gives PPGZ to Viz Media. (at first I was thinking Funimation but I think they rather do more mature shows then PPGZ, but you never know) I may put my made up cast for both in the next chapter.
Next Chapter: We went three chapters full of comedy, now it's back to what you're all here for the action! But first something Dark! An old foe is after Kasey and the only one who can save her may end up destroying everything in her path, including herself… next time is the origin of… DARK … shh it's a secret!
Till then… see ya!
