Thank you for all the wonderful reviews again! Shiranai, Thank you! I was a little iffy about the Japanese school system, thank you for clearing that up. But in my story, I decided to make this into an American based boarding school, however unrealistic, but I will keep you words in mind when I write another story like this one.
Butter-cup babe, this chapter is going to be mostly based on the greens. And so far, I have decided to work on both of the new stories. Kudari-chan, I REALLY would...It's just that I really have no imagination with names… XD But if anyone wants to help me out, I would be more than happy to take suggestions! And I'm glad you think so, Butterfree!
NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL! IT IS A RE-WRITE! Because my writing skills sucked. :3
Enjoy!
Beep…Beep…Beep…Be-
Kaoru brought her fist down onto her black alarm clock, breaking it into pieces. She instantly regretted it as she felt a sharp shooting pain in her hand. The puff sighed at used her other hand to pull the light green sheets from over her head. Even if it was a Saturday, Kaoru still woke up early for some odd reason.
"Damn…"
Kaoru scratched the back of her head with her good hand and scowled as a few drops of blood fell on her sheets. From what she could tell, a piece of plastic had cut into her skin when she smashed that annoying alarm clock.
"Stupid alarm clock," Kaoru whispered under her breath as she stripped and walked into her bathroom.
She did her basic morning routine and walked out of her bathroom with an apple green towel wrapped around her body. Kaoru, unlike Miyako and Momoko, didn't have a room mate so she it didn't really bother her to walk around in a towel.
Kaoru walked into the dormitories' small kitchen and opened the refrigerator. She scanned the selections and grimaced.
'Mental note to self;" Kaoru thought as she pulled out an unopened box of instant chocolate chip waffles, 'I need to go shopping soon…'
Kaoru turned on her radio and plopped two waffles into a toaster on the kitchen counter. She grabbed a clean plate off of a rack hanging on the kitchen wall and pulled the syrup out of her pantry.
"I guess I should get dressed while the waffles are cooking."
Kaoru walked out of the kitchen and was beginning to walk to her room when she saw something black on her couch. She raised an eyebrow and walked closer. Sleeping on her couch was Butch. Kaoru yelped and ran to her room. She pulled on underwear, a pair of green plaid boxers, and a white tank top before sprinting back to the couch to wake Butch up.
"Butch!" Kaoru screamed and shook the boy, "Hey Butch! What the hell are you doing here?!"
Kaoru shook Butch back and forth but it seemed to have no affect. Kaoru noticed this and fumed. She wasn't exactly happy at finding Butch sleeping on her couch. She stomped back into the kitchen but quickly came back with a glass of water. Kaoru splashed the water on Butch which earned her an extremely girly scream.
"What was that for?!"
"Why are you sleeping on my couch," Kaoru yelled as she set the glass on a table beside the couch, "And why are your bags by the door?!"
Butch blinked at Kaoru and then reluctantly sighed.
"Well, if you remember, I was the only other student besides you not to have a roommate. Last night, some one broke in my dorm and vandalized everything. Now the stupid school board said it's unsafe not to have a roommate, and that's why I'm stuck with you!"
Kaoru collapsed on her bed and whined.
"No way," Kaoru sighed, "And I was looking forward to not having a room mate!"
Butch slouched backwards into the couch.
"Likewise, girly." Butch said as his stomach grumbled, "Hey, you have any food here?"
Kaoru stood up and sighed.
"Yeah, if you're fine with instant chocolate chip waffles that is."
Butch stood up as well and nodded. Kaoru then walked to the kitchen with Butch following close behind.
After Butch had eaten half of Kaoru's food supply, he took a shower and changed. He came out of his new room wearing black baggy pants and a green T-shirt with random black writing on it. For the rest of the morning, Kaoru helped Butch move into his new room.
"So," Kaoru asked as she helped Butch move a desk into the room, "Do you know who ruined your room?"
Butch set the desk down and sat down on the carpet floor.
"Nope. They wrote things like 'Mr.Meterosexual on my walls though."
"Oh," Kaoru sighed as she wiped her forehead with the back of her hand, "I think we need a brake…How about I go call the other morons and see if they want to hang out?"
Butch shrugged and started to hang T-shirts in his closet. Kaoru went back into the living room and pulled out her forest green cell phone. She dialed Miyako's number and waited for the answer. Over the years, the compacts they used for transforming had been replaced with cell phones. The Rowdyruff boys had decided they wanted an excuse to fight, so they had cell phones as well.
"Moshi Moshi!" Miyako's voice chimed over the phone.
"Hey Miyako-Chan!"
"Oh," Miyako giggled, "Good morning Kaoru-San!"
"Butch and I where wondering," Kaoru explained as she flopped onto the apple green couch, "Since we've all had a rough first week of school, if you guys wanted to hang out a bit?"
Kaoru could hear Miyako's voice tense.
"Sorry Kaoru-San," Miyako said in an abnormally quite voice, "Momoko and I cant. Momoko has theater practice and I have tennis. Gomen!"
"Nah," Kaoru said, "Its fine. Bye!"
Kaoru pressed the end button and dialed Brick's number next. She turned on the TV to soccer while waiting for an answer. The phone rang for two minutes, but Brick still hadn't answered. Soon, Kaoru got annoyed and just hung up. She tried Boomer's number, but there was still no response.
"Bummer…"
As it so happened, everyone except Kaoru seemed to know that Butch was going to live with her. They probably knew this because they were the ones who vandalized Butch's room. So Momoko and Brick made a plan to make the two spend the day alone together. When Miyako told Kaoru they were busy, the girls were really watching TV with Brick and Boomer in Momoko and Miyako's dormitory.
"Momoko-San," Miyako sighed as she set her light blue cell phone down after hanging up with Kaoru, "Aren't we being a little mean?"
"Of course not," Brick laughed and took a sip of soda, "They deserve each other. They'll thank us one day."
Momoko nodded at Brick's statement and took a sip of her strawberry milkshake. Brick's blood red cell phone rang, but he chose to ignore it. The same thing happened to Boomer, but he ignored it as well.
"I'm hungry…" Boomer announced to no one in particular.
"You heard the idiot," Brick snickered as he stood up from the white couch, "Let's go get some food."
The three other teens eagerly followed him and together they all walked to the breakfast hall downstairs.
Kaoru returned back to Butch's doorway and leaned against the door frame. Butch was still unpacking but turned his head to face Kaoru.
"So," Butch asked, "What did they say?"
"Well…," Kaoru sighed and began to help Butch take his clothes out of a box, "It looks like were spending the day together."
Butch looked like he was about to cry, earning him a smack across the face from Kaoru. Kaoru seemed agitated, but her face suggested otherwise.
"Since there's nothing we can do about it," Kaoru stood up, "Why don't we just go hang out somewhere?"
Butch frowned. He hated the thought of hanging out with a girl. But on the other side, the idea of hanging around the dormitory all day wasn't all that great either. He sighed and reluctantly walked out of his room with Kaoru.
"So," Butch asked as he pulled on a pair of loose black shoes, "Where are we going?"
By now, Kaoru had changed into baggy green khaki pants and a plain white shirt.
"Hmm…Why don't we go check out the beach? I heard if we take a bus on 2nd street, it could take us strait to Tokyo bay."
"Sure." Butch shrugged and grabbed his black skateboard with a green stripe down the middle.
Kaoru nodded, pulled on a pair of green converse, grasped her green and yellow skateboard, and darted out the door. Butch was surprised by her enthusiasm, but shrugged it off.
"Oi, Hurry up!"
Butch sweat dropped and ran out the door to catch up with the green puff that was already down stairs.
Momoko felt like screaming. She felt like pulling all her hair out and making a total mess. All because Brick had been a smart tart and decided to eat HER strawberry daifuku. Momoko was beyond mad.
"Get back here before I eat YOU!"
Momoko had ended up chasing a screaming Brick around with a fork in the breakfast hall while Miyako and Boomer just sat at a table and watched.
"So…," Boomer asked with a bored look in his eye, "When is Momoko going to realize that Brick can't give her back her Daifuku?"
Miyako laughed and took a bite of her cream cheese bagel.
"I'm sure Momoko-San will get over it soon. She always does"
Boomer laughed and drank his orange juice. Eventually, Brick gave up after he was backed into a corner. He gave Momoko enough money to buy another sweet. Momoko grinned at her victory and bought another daifuku. After things settled down, the four of them began to discus what to do for the rest of the day.
"Why don't we go watch Kei-Sempai's game?" Momoko exclaimed with little hearts dancing in her eyes.
Brick looked utterly disgusted by the idea and Momoko's current state.
"How about the pool?" said Boomer.
"In this weather? I know," Miyako smiled, "Lets hit the beach!"
"You can't catch up!"
"Wanna bet, girl?"
Butch and Kaoru raced up a hill on their skateboards to reach the bus stop. Kaoru seemed to be kicking off her skateboard with all her might but, Butch wasn't too far behind. Kaoru grinned as she neared the bus stop.
"Kaoru," Butch yelled from behind her, "Stop! Get out of the way!"
Kaoru was going way too fast to stop. She looked behind her to see a big blue truck coming strait at her. Since she couldn't stop, she threw herself into the bushes that lined the road. In a few seconds, the truck had passed by and Kaoru emerged from the bushes, covered with twigs and leaves.
"Why that truck driver…!"
"It's your fault," Butch raised an eyebrow and explained, "If you where watching where you were going and not going so fast, this wouldn't have happened."
Kaoru rolled her eyes. She brushed herself off and continued to mutter curses about Butch, trucks, and red ants that bite. Butch just gave a small smile and pulled a twig out of Kaoru's hair.
Four minutes later, the bus that would take the two to the beach arrived. Butch walked up the steps and handed the driver money. After that, Kaoru and Butch found seats, which was no problem because they seemed to be the only people going to the beach.
"So…," Butch asked and slung his skateboard into the seat next to him, "Tell me again why are we going to the beach in the middle of November?"
Kaoru blinked, she hadn't really thought about that before.
"How should I know," Kaoru asked and set her skateboard on her lap, "You're the one that wanted to get out of the dormitory. What are we even gonna do there?"
Butch snickered and grabbed his backpack. He zipped it open and brought out a dark forest green pair of surf shorts, a light green bikini top with white poka-dots, and a pair of apple green shorts that looked like Etoile high school's girl gym shorts.
"We're going swimming."
Kaoru's jaw hung open. There were a few things she was NOT alright with. One, it was WAY to cold to swim. Two, she refused to wear that thing of a swimsuit. Three, it bothered her because she had last seen that swimsuit in her underwear drawer that very morning.
"Butch…," Kaoru tried not to scream as her face grew a dark red, "Where did you get that swimsuit from?!"
Butch nervously laughed.
"I…Um, Found it," Butch tried to explain as Kaoru's glare only grew, "I-In your drawer, but I swear I didn't mean to! And I didn't take anything else either!"
"You went in my drawer!?"
Butch swallowed and tried not to look Kaoru strait in the eye. Kaoru was calming down now, so all she did was whack Butch in the side of her head with her skateboard.
"Whatever. But I swear," Kaoru frowned and snatched the swimsuit from his hands, "If I find anything else missing, you will not get any more of my waffles for the rest of the year."
Butch was terrified at the thought of losing the waffles, which he had fallen in love with that morning. Butch then realized how stupid he was acting and cleared his face.
"I can do whatever I want, girly."
Kaoru shrugged and the rest of the ride was silent. The ride soon ended as the bus came to a stop beside a sandy walkway. Kaoru and Butch walked off the bus, leaving the driver a big tip for putting up with their screaming.
"So," Kaoru asked and looked around at the empty beach, "What now?"
"We change, duh."
"How genius," Kaoru grimaced as she motioned to the vast mass of sand and water, "There are no changing stalls here."
Kaoru turned to face Butch who had already taken off his shirt and changed pants.
"Why aren't you changed yet," Butch laughed, "It's not that cold!"
Kaoru stared at Butch funny. It wasn't cool, but it wasn't exactly hot either.
"Sure," Kaoru rolled her eyes to the lack of changing stalls, "So where do I change?"
Butch raised an eyebrow.
"Uh, Here?"
"And let you peek at me," Kaoru scowled and folded her arms above her chest, "I think not."
"Well, how about this," Butch frowned, obviously annoyed, "I'll turn around and you can change."
Kaoru grumbled as Butch turned around the face the waves. She yanked off her shirt and shorts and replaced them with the swimsuit Butch had 'found'.
"You can turn around now," Kaoru bluntly stated as she tried to pull her bottom into a more comfortable position, "So now what, smart tart, there's nothing to do here."
Butch laughed and pointed at something behind Kaoru. She noticed this and turned around to see Miyako, Boomer, Brick, and Momoko with their mouths hanging wide open. Momoko was wearing a pink one piece with a straw hat, Miyako was wearing a white two piece with light blue dots, Boomer wore white shorts with a single navy stripe down the side, and Brick just wore plain red shorts.
'Busy, huh,' Kaoru snickered as she thought to herself, 'Busy my ass.'
"Hey guys," Butch grinned and waved to the others, "What brings you here? I thought you all had something to do today?"
"W-Well you see," Momoko began, "We finished early! …And we came to meet you!"
Brick sighed and raised his arms in defeat.
"Okay, okay," Brick smiled, "You got us. So how did you two like your date?"
Butch and Kaoru both visibly flinched. They looked to each other and flinched even more.
"Date?"
Brick was dumbfounded at the question.
"Uh, yeah."
The green duo both burst out laughing. They shared a mischievous glint in the eye with each other before Kaoru grabbed Momoko and Miyako by the wrist and flung them both into the chilly water. Butch did the same for his brothers. The two shared a high five before jumping in after them and splashing each other with the icy sea water.
"Kaoru-San," Miyako whined as she rose from the water, "You completely ruined my hair!"
"And you got my sandals wet!" Boomer chimed in.
Everyone laughed and enjoyed their time playing. After a while, they all emerged soaking wet.
"Alright, I think I'm ready to leave," Momoko yawned, "I think I've had enough of the beach!"
Miyako nodded and Kaoru stretched her arms.
"Yeah…Kaoru, Butch," Brick sighed and placed his normal red hat back on his head, "Are you coming back in my jeep or riding the bus?"
"We'll stick with you guys," Butch answered for both of them, "Something smelled funny on that bus."
Brick shrugged and all six of them pilled into his car for the long ride back.
"You know," Momoko giggled in the seat beside Brick, "I here there's a really cool artificial onsen around here!"
"That's nice," Boomer stated, his tone flat, "But what does that have to do with anything?"
"What she's trying to say is," Kaoru grinned, "Is that you're going to take us to that onsen."
Brick blinked as he weighed his options.
'Why not,' He thought, 'I might find some hot chicks and it IS a Friday night…'
"No way," Butch exclaimed, "Tell them, Brick!"
Brick paid his brother no heed.
"Sure."
Everyone except Brick fell out of their seats. The girls hadn't expected him to agree that easily and his brothers where just stunned.
"B-Brick," Boomer yelped and pushed himself back into his seat beside Kaoru and Bubbles, "Y-Your kidding right!"
"Uh, no," Brick blinked, "Why are you so surprised?"
Brick turned left at the next exit where a sign stood clearly reading 'Takino Onsen; Resort and hotel'.
"No reason," Butch sighed and relaxed into his seat on the side beside Kaoru, "Just didn't think you'd say yes to these sissies…"
The girls simply pretended not to hear Butch's comment and Boomer and Brick just sighed.
"I hope everyone brought a pair of spare clothes," Brick yawned and parked the jeep in font of an old fashion Japanese inn, "I think we're gonna have to spend the night here."
"Are you serious?" Butch replied in an annoyed tone and shot a strange look at Brick, "Don't we spend enough time with these girls already!"
"Well, guess what, Butch," Brick snarled as he glared down Butch, "I don't feel like driving again. My word is final."
Butch rolled his dark green eyes and walked in the building with a huff. Miyako and Momoko giggled and ran inside with Kaoru right behind them. Boomer sighed and grabbed the fuming Brick's arm, dragging him inside. Once they were all inside, an old lady with graying hair and wearing a bright yellow robe came to greet them.
"Welcome to Takino Onsen. How many rooms will you need for tonight," The lady bowed, "And how many days will you be spending here?"
Brick flinched. He knew the group couldn't afford rooms for all six of them.
"Uh…Two rooms for one night please."
Momoko raised her eyebrow in surprise. She was about to say something when all six of their cell phones rang.
"…Excuse us for a moment." Boomer sighed and ran out the inns' door.
"Gomen," Miyako bowed, "We'll be back in a few minutes!"
Kaoru nodded and walked out the door with Miyako. Momoko and Brick tried to smile but it came out lopsided and left as well, leaving the old lady in a state of confusion.
Momoko flipped her cell phone open once she was outside and looked at the screen. She sighed when she saw the Gangreen gang doing its normal routine.
"It's the Gangreen gang again. Puff/Ruff Z! Transform!"
Momoko ducked behind a tree and said, "Hyper Blossom!" Into her tickle me pink cell phone. In a flash of pink, Momoko was gone and in her place stood Blossom, the leader of Puff/Ruff Z. Following Blossom's example, Miyako flipped open her cell phone and exclaimed, "Rolling Bubbles!" and Miyako disappeared, leaving Bubbles instead. Kaoru didn't really care where she was, so as soon as she stepped outside, she had transformed into Buttercup with a flash of light green.
The boys didn't even bother having an alias because the whole city was too stupid to recognize it was them. Brick opened his cell and yelled, "Darting Brick!" and his clothes changed into his Rowdyruff uniform. Boomer and Butch also transformed.
Over time, the girl outfits hadn't changed all the much. The only major difference was that their jacket had been removed to reveal the tank top underneath. Only when it got cold is when a pink, blue, or green hoddie with the Powerpuff insignia appeared.
The boys outfit hadn't changed one bit from when they where first created. But the colors had darkened a bit, leaving Boomer's jacket navy, Brick's crimson, and Butch's a dark green. The only other thing that had changed were their weapons. Brick replaced spitballs with spitting darts, Boomer used a metal rod that could be used for defense or offence, and Butch began using bombs and poisonous gasses.
"Let's go," Blossom exclaimed as she rose in the air, "To the city, pronto!"
"Of course," Brick replied in a mocking tone of voice and rose into the air himself, "Fearless leader, Blossom."
Blossom rolled her eyes and flew off to Tokyo City. As soon as the six reached the city, they sighed as they noticed all the skyscrapers where covered with green spray paint. Butch twitched at a badly drawn Ace making a rude gesture to anyone who would pass by.
"The Gangreen Gang again," Boomer sighed as he saw Snake spray painting a life size picture of himself on a skyscraper, "What is this, the third or fourth time this week?"
"Ichigo Daifuku shoot…," Blossom said as she flicked her wrist and her yo-yo was sent hurtling towards snake, "At least it's not Mojo again."
The pink Yo-Yo made contact with the side of Snake's head and sent him flying into a wall opposite the building. Boomer flew over to Snake and grabbed his arms so he couldn't escape. Bubbles spotted Little Arturo running in circles out of the corner of her eye.
"Bubble Catcher!"
Little Arturo didn't even notice the big bubbles surround and trap her. She simply continued running in the bubble but eventually got tired and collapsed of exhaustion.
"Chocolate Dart shoot!"
Brick spat an array of darts from his shooter towards Grubber who was standing in the middle of a side walk, watching the battle and looking stupid. The small darts sent Grubber backwards and left him pinned against the wall by his shirt.
On the other side of the city, Big Billy threw himself at Butch in an attempt to knock him out of the sky. Butch grinned and dodged. He then pulled a small white ball out of his pocket.
"Noxious Bomber!"
Butch pushed a red button on the ball and threw it at Billy's feet. Billy was confused by this action, but was shocked when it exploded, expelling purple gas. After the gas cleared, Billy was reveled to be lying on the floor, unconscious and drooling.
"He never stood a chance against Butch!" A random teenage girl on the street exclaimed with a dreamy look in her eyes.
Butch grinned and winked at the girl. Buttercup flushed a pink tinge and whacked Butch over the head with her hammer and flew off to find ace, leaving a confused and pissed Butch behind.
About two miles away from Butch, The leader of the Gangreen gang had just finished spray painting a big fish when he noticed a streak of light green heading in his direction. Before he could even try to run away, Buttercup had already started pummeling him with the hammer.
"Big bang!"
Buttercup took all her anger out on Ace. By the time she was done, she had created a huge crater in the middle of the street. And deep and the bottom lay a battered and whimpering Ace. Blossom flew to the crater and winced.
"Ah..," Blossom said and flinched at the damage the green puff caused, "I think he's down Buttercup. You can stop now!"
Buttercup rolled her eyes and zoomed back to the inn, leaving a light green streak behind her. Blossom sighed and turned to Butch.
"What the hell did you do to make her this mad?"
Sorry if I cut the chapter short. ; I was originally planning on making the onsen chapter by itself anyways, so I guess this turned out fine. So anyways, thank you all for you're support! It was really the only thing that kept me from slacking… I would especially like to thank my friends Mandy and May! Thank you very much! Anyways, I'm looking for some attack names for the boys and maybe a possible weapon change for Boomer! If you're confused about their weapons, its like this.
Brick: Still uses the same straw, but instead of spitting spitballs, he spits out darts. Names attacks after food like Blossom.
Boomer: Uses an iron rod, used for physical attacks and defense.
Butch: Uses home made bombs and gasses, a poison expert you could say.
Anyways, I couldn't think of ANYTHING for Boomer, so if you have any ideas, please tell me! Thank you for reading everyone! I'll finish the next chapter as fast as possible; look forward to it! Full of onsen-y goodness.
