Fire, Earth and Water
Disclaimer: I have no form of ownership of the Powerpuff Girls
According to legend untold. Earth was a thriving beautiful planet where God Abba, the spirits and people lived together in harmony. God Abba up in Hulo, which was above the sky. The sky below Hulo changed from day to night according to the hours. And below the sky was Earth where the people lived and were once in a while visited by God Abba but mostly by the spirits who were his highest servants and messengers. But over the many centuries the people became less and less faithful to God Abba and one day it got to the point where God Abba withdrew his blessings and healing. The people of Earth had to learn to survive with God Abba's blessing, healing and guidance. Plus the spirits left taking with them their kindness and teachings.
But one day (over a millennia later) Earth was attacked by a mighty monkey and it seemed that there was no hope for the mightiest went to fight him and the mightiest failed. But suddenly three girls appeared. One with fiery red hair, another with hair raven black, and lastly one with beautiful blonde hair. They fought valiantly and destroyed the evil Mojo Jojo. But their bodies were damaged and they were sure to perish. The people of Earth sent prayers and wailings to God Abba. Even those who didn't believe prayed for a miracle or hoped for some form of turn around to save these precious children who saved their lives but were about to lose their very own. The wind was furious at God Abba's refusal to listen to the people's cries and sent its mighty winds throughout Hulo causing chaos and noise that no one could imagine. Spirits ran screaming as the winds tore through their chambers, caused disorder in both regular and special rooms and terrified souls of dead persons who had kept themselves out of Delva. The place where evil souls were sent to suffer after their physical bodies died. God Abba wasn't amused. He stopped the winds' progress with but a hand and asked calmly what it expected to achieve. The wind told him of the three special children who saved the people of Earth and its refusal to let them die when God Abba could do something to save them. God Abba refused to help pointing out that he had removed his blessing and healing from that place because of the people's disobedience and lack of worship. But wind reminded him that these girls knew nothing of him and therefore didn't deserve wrath but instead his help and mercy. God Abba thought of this and reconsidered.
He went down to help the three girls who weren't even hanging on by much of a thread anymore. God Abba decided to give them new bodies. For the red head the body of an eight-year old child with the main ability of controlling and creating fire. For the raven-haired one the body of an adult for her brute strength and attitude was way that beyond what a child should have. And her main ability was to be a great physical warrior who protected Earth and could sense immediately when Earth was being attacked. And lastly for the blonde, her bubbly personality and kindness made her perfect for a healer. But he also made her a teenager so that others would take her more seriously and made her able to control water and protector of nature. God Abba thought about what their past might've been like but decided to erase that from their minds. He also decided to erase what made them physically different from other humans. The people of Earth never knew any of this because all they had seen was the girls disappearing from their sights in a bright white light. After recreating the sisters in their new image(s), he sent each of them to a different part of the Earth. It would be five years and seven days from when they came to fight the evil Mojo Jojo that they'd see each other again.
----------
Three Different Females One Unexpected AttackEarth continued to train in the lonely canyons that she often used when she wanted to train intensely but without disturbance from any form of wildlife. She was a great warrior and even though having no memory of her past, she knew that God Abba had given her a body that would never age and she could live and be twenty-two forever as long as she wasn't fatally defeated in battle or otherwise physically killed. She was destined to protect the Earth and help it survive despite the injury it often got from those mere people who inhabited her and for the most part treated her poorly.
Earth was 5'9, had wavy shoulder length hair, had beautiful tanned Caucasian skin that had a few scars from battle and currently wore a bear skinned robe and shoes made out of wolf's fur. She also had unusually round green eyes, which didn't match her oval face and curvaceous full figured body. Earth wasn't one to care for her physical beauty but she secretly enjoyed her dangerously sexy looks and wondered about her strange eyes.
Those who've seen her and met her have come to either respect her or hate her. But they never got to really know her personally since she wasn't one for company. God Abba and the spirits of warrior's strength, guidance and wisdom were her constant companions and company. And Earth wanted no other.
------
Far away from that canyon and to the left corner of the world. All was volcanic fire and ash. And people learned to stay away or face the wrath of what they believed was a loner spirit that wanted no company what so ever. Actually it was really eight-year old Fire. She too had unusually round eyes but they were reddish pink in colour despite a normal circular face, slightly pale Caucasian skin and an average eight-year old body at a 4'8 height. Her ankle length straight red hair got most of her care and attention next to her practices of controlling and being one with fire, heat and lava. Not that she wasn't already an expert. But she didn't want to stop and believe she had reached perfection. She always wore a red T-shirt and a pink skirt that could never get burned. She knew that they were gifts of God Abba who also sent her books to help her expand her already great knowledge. But she rarely worshipped him. Logic was her true god and this area was her domain, and hers alone.
-------
At a different area towards the top of the world, Water was playing in the pond with several children. She was a great counselor and teacher and most believed that she was a spirit sent in human form to help bring joy and happiness to Earth. She was also able to heal people, control water and sometimes see and save people from demons and evil spirits. She worshipped God Abba everyday and always wore blue clothing. She wore different clothing daily because the people of Earth who socialized with her gave her gifts of clothing despite her protests that her teachings and healing were for free. They also brought books; food and other essentials except money for water had no use for it since she never bought anything. Water was a fourteen-year old teenager, who never aged, was kind but protective of those she loved as well as those she didn't know, she stood 5'4, had shiny bouncy waist length blonde hair, a petite body and usually big round blue eyes that didn't exactly match her slightly heart shaped face.
But people mostly saw her eyes as special and indicating even more that she wasn't a normal human. Water's home was the special garden of Eve, which was reserved for certain spirits only before her arrival since God Abba took away his blessing from Earth. The people loved Water and hoped that she'd remain with them forever.
--------
Days later Earth was meditating on a rock by a bubbling brook. She didn't usually do this but once in a while she needed to clear her mind and rest her body in ways besides sleep.
Suddenly her eyes flew open. She felt it again. Earth suffering. But this time it was immense suffering. Earth wondered if it were some form of huge natural disaster.
"No it's not," God Abba said suddenly and Earth jumped to her feet, "Planet Earth is being attacked by foul evil beings," he revealed to her, "you must stop them."
"I will God Abba," Earth said firmly.
--------
People of Earth ran screaming in a metropolitan area. Skyscrapers were falling, cars were being blown up or overturned, holes were being made from underground, laser beams rained from the skies, people were being killed in various ways, all forms of property was being destroyed, and everything was in complete chaos.
Earth arrived through one of the special portals God Abba had set up for her. She looked around in shock and confusion. Then her face became angrily contorted as she snarled.
"Who did this?" Earth demanded in a whisper at first, "who did this?" she demanded loudly this time.
Earth's answer was a laser beam, which she dodged masterly but barely.
"Who was that?" Earth heard a gruff voice ask from high up in the sky.
"I don't know," a soft gentler voice responded as Earth looked carefully up in the sky trying to find the sources.
"Me either, but we've got to destroy this place," another male voice which sounded full of authority and very serious said, "it's the source of God Abba's power," he continued, "the more we permanently destroy, the weaker he gets."
These words surprised Earth. She always considered God Abba to be immortal and all-powerful. Never did she once think that great destruction of the Earth would weaken him much less that he could be destroyed.
"That's why he created me," Earth realized, "to protect both him and the Earth," she concluded.
"Hey someone's down there looking for us," the gruff voice said suddenly.
Earth decided to take evasive action and hid behind some rubble after taking a sharp turn.
Three boys landed on the ground. All were eleven years old. Their names were Brick, Butch and Boomer. They had in respective order red, black and blonde hair and huge round red, green, and blue eyes. They each wore colour-coded shirts that matched their eye colour, black pants and black sneakers.
"Damn, I lost my cap," Brick the serious voiced one said and flew off to find it.
"Did you recognize that woman looking at us Butch?" Boomer asked in his usual soft voice.
"No," Butch snapped gruffly at his brother.
"Her eyes look a little like…" Boomer started to say.
"I found my cap!" Brick shouted as he landed beside Butch wearing his red cap turned sideways as always.
"I think I recognized that woman's eyes," Boomer said to Brick.
"They were a little round, so what?" Butch snapped.
"What do you mean you recognized a woman?" Brick asked, "we're looking…."
"But her eyes were green though," Butch said interrupting Brick.
"Green!" Brick shouted, "were her eyes round?" he asked urgently.
"They were round but barely larger than normal human eyes," Boomer told him, "they're not large like ours," he added.
"So this woman might be Buttercup?" Butch whispered to Brick.
"Possibly," Brick responded, "that Abba guy is able to do a whole lot of things."
"Well it won't be so easy now that most of his powers have been temporarily jammed," Boomer point out, "all we have to do is destroy this place, diminish his powers and then destroy him."
"But this damn place is huge!" Butch shouted, "it could take days!"
"Well it has to be done so we'll take whatever time's necessary to do it!" Brick shouted back.
"I hear something," Boomer said suddenly, "guys, move!" he cried and flew into air.
"Wha…?" Butch and Brick started to ask in unison and looked where Boomer had looked.
They looked in time to see Earth right over them with a spear.
"Ha," Butch said as he and Brick moved out of the way just in time, "you can't harm us with that."
"With the help of God Abba I can," Earth declared and pushed the spear straight for Butch's stomach.
"Ahhhhhh!" Butch cried as the spear pierced through his belly and out his back.
Brick's eyes widened in horror while Earth grinned triumphantly.
"God Abba is all powerful and as a servant I'm also powerful and Earth's greatest defender!" Earth shouted.
"Defend this," Boomer shouted from the sky and Earth screamed as a laser beam burnt her arm and she forcefully pulled her spear out of Butch.
"I bet she's one of that Abba bastard's top helpers," Butch said as Earth clutched her arm and glared at them, "let's kill her."
"Not if I kill you first," Earth snarled.
"She acts like Buttercup," Brick muttered.
"What did you call me you misshapen freak!" Buttercup screamed.
"Who are calling a freak?" Butch demanded angrily, "you're just like us!"
"Like you!" Earth cried incredulously, "your eyes are bigger than the moon, you have no fingers, and are those your feet!"
"But your eyes are round like ours," Boomer protested from above.
"But then thousand times smaller," Earth spat back, "I Earth will destroy you," she declared.
"Your name is Earth?" Butch asked after a snort, "I thought Buttercup was lame."
"My name's not Buttercup!" Earth exploded, "what is that?" she demanded, "a term you creatures always call women?"
"No we mean…" Boomer started to explain.
"Don't," Brick interrupted, "she works for Abba, so he must've created her," he told Boomer, "she's not Buttercup."
"It's Earth, and you call him God Abba you disrespectful cretin," Earth snarled.
"Don't bother," Butch snapped, "you'll be six feet under anyway and won't hear us disrespect your worthless god any longer," he told her.
"Worthless!" Earth screamed furiously, "he's worth more than anything that's ever existed!" she shouted.
"Even more than your life Miss Earth?" Brick asked seriously.
"Oh come on Brick, she's not even…" Butch started.
"Yes," Earth responded to Brick interrupting Butch, "God Abba is above everything," she told Brick.
"Then prepare to die if you try to stop us," Brick told her, "some of our powers can't work here like our super speed, x-ray vision and my fire powers," he continued, "but we're still super strong and almost invincible."
"My spear says otherwise," Earth said with a superior grin.
"But I can still fight," Butch spoke up even though he held one hand to his bleeding belly.
"We can handle her Butch," Brick said seriously, "your wounds will heal soon," he reminded Butch and Earth's eyes widened, "you can fight others like her then," he added.
"They're no others like me," Earth told Brick.
"Sure," Brick said not believing her, "your precious Abba doesn't mass produce you."
"I'm one of a kind and I'll defeat you three," Earth told him, "one by one you will die."
"Then I guess we fight her," Brick said, "you want to participate Boomer?" he asked his brother.
"I'll just referee," Boomer responded, "shouldn't be long anyway," he added snidely.
"Like you could beat me blondie!" Earth shouted.
"Don't call me that!" Boomer cried angrily.
"Any of us could defeat you!" Butch shouted.
"I dare any of you to try," Earth challenged, "don't think your ability of flight can help you," she told them, "I've defeated flying evil before."
"But they weren't as strong as us I bet," Butch said.
"No," Earth admitted, "but they still fell to my might and those deserving of death died before my eyes."
"You watched them die?" Boomer asked in a squeak.
"If they were dangerous enough I had to ensure that they were dead," Earth explained.
"I have to ask you something," Brick said formally, "do you know anything about a monkey named Mojo Jojo?"
"Why are you questioning me?" Earth demanded, "we're supposed to be fighting," she reminded him.
"Just tell us if the girls who came to defeat Mojo Jojo are alive!" Butch exploded."
"After God Abba came down to their dying bodies they disappeared into a white light and went to glory," Earth said recalling what God Abba told her, "they weren't from this world and God Abba told me that he couldn't keep their souls in Hulo because he had no authority over them," she concluded.
"So they're dead then," Brick said softly, "I had hoped for different news."
"They died to save this world," Earth said, "the same world you're now destroying," she added.
"They're many reasons," Brick responded, "but let's fight, not talk."
Brick did a high kick but Earth blocked it with her spear. He then did a low kick and she started to flip over him. Just what he wanted. He shot a laser beam at her back and she cried out on impact. Brick then grabbed her leg and flung her into a building. Earth fell to the ground with a loud thump. After a moment of not moving in which her mind reeled at how she could be losing to a child, she slowly started to rise despite her pain and injuries.
"Dude she's getting up!" Butch cried in shock.
"Stand down if you know what's good for you!" Brick ordered.
"I will not be defeated by you," Earth whispered as she slowly stood to her feet despite her legs being broken in several places as well as other broken bones, "Earth has more than just physical powers," she said loud enough for Brick to hear, "now feel the pain you've caused this planet ten times over," she told him, 'times thirty!" she shouted and looked straight into his eyes.
Suddenly Brick felt something. Next second he was screaming.
"MAKE IT STOP!" Brick screamed as he fell to his knees and tears streamed down his face, "MAKE THE PAIN STOP! MAKE THE PAIN STOP!"
"Never!" Earth shrieked and maintained eye contact, "times fifty!" she shouted.
Brick's screams reached an all new crescendo as he now bawled even louder and started tearing at his hair.
Brick's brothers watched in shock and horror.
Butch's face suddenly contorted in anger and he flew at Earth. But he stopped right in front of her and ended up looking into her eyes. Butch now started to scream and Brick fell to the long stretch of street twitching and whimpering softly.
Boomer was on the verge of tears. Now he was hearing Butch scream and Butch's pained screams scared him more than anything because Butch had a very high threshold for pain and usually wouldn't admit being hurt much less allow himself to scream. Boomer looked around desperately then saw a nearby pole. He pulled it from out of the ground and swung it hard into the side of Earth's head.
Earth screamed as she felt the impact and flew off until she crashed into some rubble. Eye contact had been broken and Butch fell to the ground breathing hard and a few tears escaped his eyes.
Earth was now unconscious from the blow and a lot of blood now flowed out from a hole at the side of her head. Boomer had already let go of the pole and now floated down to Brick who still was softly whimpering and twitching even worse.
"Brick?" Boomer whispered as he leaned over his red haired brother.
Brick only twitched even worse. His eyes opened staring as if at nothingness.
"That bitch used some weird power on us," Butch spoke and Boomer looked up to see Butch coming to towards him and Brick despite wincing every time he moved and having to practically drag his feet along to move each step he made.
"Earth!" a voice shrieked, "you worthless monsters!" she cried angrily and the two fully aware brothers looked to see a blonde teenager in a flowing blue ankle-length dress, blue flip-flops and colourful beads on both her arms running towards an unconscious Earth.
"You three have a lot of nerve trying to destroy Earth and Abba," another female voice said but this one's voice was cold and reproachful.
The brothers looked in the opposite direction of the blonde to see an eight-year old redhead walking towards them. Every step she took caused the tarred street beneath her to melt from the heat exuding from her body. But both brothers were most taken a back by her eyes. They were smaller than their eyes yes, but they looked just like Blossom's.
"I've been sent by request of Abba to give you a message," Fire said to them, "leave now if you value your lives," she told them, "the things you seek no longer exist and defeating Abba is impossible," she concluded.
"Aren't you supposed to call him God Abba?" Butch asked.
"He already knows what he is," Fire said dismissively, "I'm only supposed to warn you and leave with that blonde called Water over there along with this planet's protector Earth," she told them, "oh and the three of us will kill you if you attack planet Earth again," she added.
"Blossom," Brick whispered suddenly.
Fire looked at the male redhead with a raised eyebrow.
"It's Fire," Fire told him.
"Are you going to kill us now?" Boomer asked her.
"I said I'd only do it if you attack the Earth again," Fire reminded him, "I doubt you're dumb enough to do that while your friends are injured."
"We will fight you if you try to stop us," Butch said to her.
And I guarantee you that it won't be an easy fight," Fire responded, "I may look younger than you physically," she admitted, "but my powers and intellect far surpass your own."
"Big talk, small girl," Butch told her.
Big talk, no action," Fire countered.
Butch suddenly burst out laughing. Soon Fire couldn't help but let slip a small smile.
"You're different," Butch said, "but you're still a wise ass like always."
"Well I don't know of this Blossom you speak of," Fire said frankly, "but if she was really smart then we had something in common."
"But she wasn't as sassy," Brick made sure to point out.
"Sounds a little boring to me," Fire said, "if that was me in a past life, I'm glad I have a new one (life)," she declared.
"She was a superhero," Boomer revealed to Fire.
"Really now?" Fire asked, "you mean she had special abilities and used them to help people in need and catch villains?" she asked Boomer who nodded, "well I'm no superhero, I'm a girl of logic who loves her own company," she said frankly.
"Why are we talking like this?" Brick asked suddenly, "like we're friends or something?"
"I don't know," Fire confessed, "but Abba will be mad at me for talking to you like this," she said uncomfortably and stepped back, "I don't know exactly who or what you're looking for but maybe you should give up and return home," she suggested.
"Never!" Boomer cried.
"No way," Butch refused.
"Not an option," Brick told her.
"Well I'm sorry to say that if we meet again like this," Fire said sadly, "I'm going to have to destroy you," she said then ran off in the direction where Water was with Earth.
"Do you think she really likes us?" Butch asked.
"It would make our job easier if she's conflicted about fighting us," Brick responded.
"But maybe we should tell them…." Boomer started to say.
"No!" Brick immediately refused.
"Yeah, stupid, they'll turn on us," Butch said.
"Hey!" a voice shouted and they looked to see the blonde taking angry strides towards them, "attack again and I swear I'll kill you," she snarled as she stopped a good distance from them, "no matter how nice I usually am you murderers!" she creamed then stormed off and back to where Earth and Fire were.
The three boys looked totally dumbfounded.
"Her eyes are just like Bubbles," Boomer observed, "huge, round and everything."
"Yeah," Butch agreed, "hey, where did they go?" he demanded when all three girls suddenly disappeared.
"I don't know," Brick said, "but we have to destroy God Abba if we want to accomplish all that we came here to do," he said seriously, "and anyone who gets in our way will be destroyed," he said to his brothers who agreed, "anyone."

Well here's chapter one. Sorry for the delay, but I made the chapter much longer to make up for it a bit. Yeah I know that it's left questions but answers will come forth as the story moves along. Please review and I'll try to update at least once this week.
