The warmth in a small blanket 2
Buttercup went to the ground when she was far enough out of the city and far away from P. E. She sat the sack away from her and sat her sisters gently beside her, and passed out.
A few hours later, Bubbles sat up.
She could not believe her dad, her own dad, had treated her like that.
She was pretty beat up and sore. She took in the scene. Her two sisters were beat up and passed out beside her and she was in a forest.
It confused the young girl.
But she was, for once in her life, glad to be far away from P. E. She was tired, and laid beside her sisters and fell asleep.
A few hours later, Blossom sat up.
She, like Bubbles saw the same things and felt the same way. But she knew their had to be a reason Professor did what he did. She began to think real hard, but gave up when her head throbbed.
She wanted to go back to sleep, but she needed to check on her sisters.
She gently shook Bubbles.
She groaned, and those light blue eyes opened. " B- Blossom? What is it? Why are we here? What happened to Professor?" Bubbles asked her wise sister.
" I needed to see if you were okay, and the other two questions I can't answer," Blossom replied, laying a hand on her little sis.
Bubbles nodded, then fell asleep again. Blossom let her be.
She then shook Buttercup gently. Buttercup grunted, then fell asleep again.
Blossom threw her arms in the air and shook again.
Another grunt. Blossom shook harder. Buttercup moaned, and her arms felt around for her alarm button.
Blossom sat her hand on Buttercup's hand.
Her eyes finally opened. " What is it?" Buttercup groaned.
" Buttercup, where are we? What happened to the Professor?" Blossom asked. " In the forest, away from Professor. He tried to hurt me, and he did, but I escaped with a few items in a bag and you two.
I have no idea why he did it, however," Buttercup explained, nodding off.
Blossom decided to explain this to Bubbles later. She looked at the sun.
By the sun, it was about 3:30.
She was weak, so the pink puff laid down and fell asleep. The three slept and recovered all day and night.
The next morning they all slept in. But Bubbles got up soon, followed by Blossom. Buttercup slept longer, so the two decided to get her out of the burning sun.
They carried her under a big, shady tree.
They found the bag and looked through it. They smiled gratefully to their sister, then Blossom tended all their wounds with her first-aid kit and found the cool lake.
Blossom and Bubbles bathed in water they cleaned by lazar- eying the water.
They changed, then bathed Buttercup and dressed her.
Buttercup slept on. Blossom read, and Bubbles cuddled Octi.
It was not long before Buttercup woke up shivering. Blossom and Bubbles were also freezing. The girls later learned that that passed night was a rare warm winter night. They had been lucky. Very lucky.
Not anymore.
Buttercup pulled out the small blanket and wrapped it around herself. Blossom narrowed her pink eyes, then yanked the blanket from her and wrapped around herself.
Soon the two were yanking the blanket back and forth between each other.
Bubbles crawled in the leather sack and slept with the opening closed.
It was warm in their, so she was content. Outside, Blossom got the blanket and Buttercup tried to contain her body heat.
The next morning Buttercup was close to hypothermia.
Blossom and Bubbles gathered sticks and lazar- eyed them to make fire. The two laid Buttercup close to the fire and rubbed her hard.
After a while the green puff was warm again, but still sat by the fire and growled to Blossom, " If you had let me use that stupid blanket I would not have froze."
" Well, if I had let you use it, I would have been frozen," Blossom shot back. " You would have been better frozen," " Why?"
" So you could be too busy being cold so you would shut up."
Blossom gasped, then her and Buttercup started rolling, kicking and punching.
Bubbles flew to them and pried them apart and dragged them back to the fire.
" Girls, if we are going to live here in this cold forest, we have to get along," she told them. " I know a way for us to get along," Blossom told them.
" For us to go our separate ways," she said. She stormed to the bag, snatched up her books, clothes, and first aid kit, and left her sisters. Buttercup growled, then snatched up her things and left also. Now it was just Bubbles in that spot they left her in.
Alone.
