Butchs POV:

"Butercup! Wait!" I called, but I didnt see her anywhere.

This isnt good.

"Buttercup!" I called louder

"Butch?" Boomer asked.

I immediently spun around to face him.

"Yes?" I faked a grin.

"Why are you calling for BC?" he cocked his head sideways.

"Umm..." I masugsed the back of my neck.

He relizied I was trying to hide something and stepped toward me.

"Did you hurt her?" he took anther step

"No." I gave him a confused look

"I find that hard to belive! All you do is hurt her." he gave a small laugh, taking another step towards me.

"Who told you that?"

"Who do you think?"

My silence answered his questions.

"Shes way too young for you." he said.

"I dont like her! I want to protect her from creeps like you!" I yelled walking back to the club.

"Are you really gonna leave like that?" he took off his jacket.

"What am I suppose to do?" I laughed dryily.

"Fight me!" he put his fists up.

"No can do Pretty Boy." I continued to the club.

He came up behind me and put me in a head lock.

I chocked, then I nudged him in the gut.

He immediently let go and he colapsed.

"Stop, Pretty Boy before you get really hurt." I said sternliy.

"No!" he got up on his feet again, "I want you to fight me."

"No." I said flatily.

"Then I'll fight you!" he tackled me.

First Blood shed.

"Fine," I wiped the blood from my mouth, "If its a fight you want, a fight you'll get."

I stood up, baring my knuckles.

I punched him upside the head.. then in the gut...then I kicked him in between his legs.

I punched him repeativly until my knuckles were covered in my own blood.

He was now covered in blood and bruised.

He diserved it.

I walked back to the club with no words, leaving him next to a dumpster, where he belonged.

Buttercups POV:

I rented a hotel for the night with the money I got. I didnt wanna go back to the pervy professor for a long time.

I was heading back to the club to apoligize to Butch and I came across Boomer.

He was next to a dumpster covered in blood and bruises were forming on his face.

I ran over to his side, hoping it wasnt him.

"Boomer!" I cried as I put a hand on his face.

Im glad I changed out of that coustume.

"Buttercup?" he smiled slightly.

"Who did this to you?" I brushed the hair away from his eyes.

"Butch. He just attacked me." he pushed himself off the cold concrete.

That worthless piece of trash! I'll get him for this, get wait!

"Dont get up too quick." I put my hands on his chest.

"Im fine." he grinned.

"Can you make it to school tomorrow?" I asked getting up with him.

"Yeah, as long as you'll be there." he kissed my cheek.

"You're so cheesy." I teased.

We walked the oppisite way of the bar.

Thank goodness!

"I thought you liked my cheesey pick up lines." he pouted.

"Well if I didnt, would I do this?" I got on my tip-toes and kisses him on his mouth.[He had a good two feet on me so I acctually jumped and wrapped my arms around his neck.]

He stooped down to my level and wrapped his arms around my waist.

I pulled away slowly.

"We could always finish this at my house." his lips nuzzled my neck.

I began to think of the night when I walked home from Bratz Club...and the men that attacked me that night.

"Not tonight. Im too tired." I lied.

It has been two since they attacked my but I could still feel every touch.

Every painful touch.

"Do you want me to walk you home then?" he asked, still not pulling away.

"No, if the Professor sees you..." I went silent by then sight of a white lab coat.

"Then i'll escort you off my propertey myself." the Professor yelled grabbing my arm.

"Sir, we didnt do anything. I was just offering to walk her home." Boomer said trying to get closer to me but the Professor pulled my hair with every step Boomer made.

I felt a cold piece of metal press against my head.

"Professor?" I whimpered.

I heard a click, "Shud'up!" he screamed.

"Professor Utonium...dont do anything youll regert." Boomer slowly walked closer.

"Shes coming home with me!" the Professor turned around to the car.

"Dont hurt her!" Boomer yelled as we were already in the car.

He could hardly keep his balace as it was but now he was trying to run toward us.

"No promises!' the Professor smiled brightly as we drove off to the house.

"Where were you?" he asked.

"I was planning my escape." I smile.

He slapped me with the back off his hand, "Dont lie to me! You wouldnt leave your sisters,but-" I inturupted him.

"They are the only reason Im here!" I put my head against the window.

He put a hand on my thigh.

"I dont like when you lie to me. You like living with me." he grinned.

I brushed his hand off of me, "I dont lie."

"You treat your owners with more respect! I didnt have to save you that night." he opened his door of the car.

"You didnt save me! You gave me a death sentence!" I yelled walking to the front door.

"Buttercup! Youre okay!" Bubbles welcomed me as I walked in.

"Why wouldnt I be?" I hugged her.

"The Proffesor said he was tired of you treating him with disrespect...and that he was gooing to make you love him." she began to cry.

I dont think she meant 'family love'.

"Buttercup! In my room...Now!" the Proffesor yelled at me as I walked in the house.

"For what?" I asked him.

He slapped me again, "Now!"

I walked upstairs to his room and sat in his bathroom.

I heard yelling from downstairs and I heard Bubbles start yelling at his to stop.

After a minute or two the screaming stopped and it went down to a low whimper.

The Professor came into the room whiping blood off his hands.

My jaw his the floor.

Was she dead?

Ill kill him. I will burn the world to the ground if I had to, he will die.

"Calm down, shes alive. She just got punished," he pinned me down on the bed, "just like you're about to be!"

"What exactly did I do?" I tried to push him off.

"I tell you this everday! You're. My. Property." he chocked me.

"And I tell you back, I. Dont. Belong. To. Anyone!" I kicked him in between his legs and he released his grip.

"Goodnight." I waved at him.

He sqwinted his eyes in pain and I laughed at the sight.

I ran downstairs to see Bubbles.

She was curled in a ball in the couch.

"Bubbbles!" I grabbed her and ran up the stairs.

"Im fine. If anything I broke a nail." she laughed.

She was always a trooper but this is something you cant hide.

"Get some rest, Okay." I laid her on her bed and rubbed her face till she fell asleep.

After she was asleep, I went in my room and sat on the bed.

I slowly laid down and thought of all the pain in my life.

The Professor.

Butch.

Ace.

I cried myself to sleep that night, hoping I would never wake up.
