Fire, Earth and Water
Disclaimer: I have no form of ownership of the Powerpuff Girls
Trouble within the CampIt had been almost a full day since Fire, Earth and Water had seen the three unknown boys who came to destroy their world and God Abba. Earth was now healed and itching for an opportunity to fight those boys again. But she was unhappy about having to take assistance with her. A little girl and a teenager was seen to her as no assistance. More like those she'd baby-sit if she were a baby sitter. But God Abba ordered that they work together and Earth grudgingly agreed. Fire didn't protest about anything God Abba said. But she still wondered about those boys and this Blossom that they kept talking about. Were they friends with this Blossom? She didn't know. But she knew that she was in God Abba's debt, and if it came time to choose. She'd chose to side with God Abba. Even without being indebted it made the most logical sense. Water had no questions in her mind. She hated killing and destruction. But those boys were evil and had not only destroyed property without cause. But also killed defenceless citizens in cold blood. Dead or alive, they deserved to be punished. God Abba was her God and she'd always obey him without question. Always.
"You have kept your faith in me for years," God Abba said to them, "even Fire who's a daughter of logic has great faith in me," he continued, "so why do I sense doubt?"
"Doubt God Abba?" Water asked in surprise.
"Yes doubt," God Abba responded, "do you believe their lies?"
"No way!" Earth cried incredulously, "they're going to suffer for calling me Buttercup!" she shouted angrily.
"They called you by another name too?" Fire asked.
"Yeah," Earth told her.
"They called me Blossom," Fire revealed.
After a moment of silence Earth and Water burst out laughing.
"What would they call you Water girl, giggles?" Fire asked scathingly and all laughter ceased.
"I can do a lot more than giggle," Water threatened, "besides I'm older than you," she said, "show some respect," she snapped.
"Respect to what?" Fire snapped, "a prettily dressed airhead?"
"Airhead!" Water exploded, "why you little…!"
"What?" Fire spat, "I dare you to say it."
"Brat!" Water shouted.
Fire's body suddenly lit on fire.
"Want to see the bad side of a brat like me then?" Fire threatened.
"Enough of this," God Abba spoke, "I expected this behaviour from Earth, not you two."
"Hey!" Earth cried in offence.
"Well you do get that way at times Earth," God Abba said honestly.
"Well you don't have to advertise it," Earth muttered.
"I've realized that you three each have different backgrounds and personalities that can make you clash," God Abba said and Fire rolled her eyes, "manners Fire," he said but Fire simply scoffed at him.
"You respect God Abba right now!" Water cried angrily.
"Please Water," God Abba said, "Fire has a very different belief and value system from both you and Earth," he informed them, "plus she hasn't spoken to living people in years," he added.
"She sure spoke to those evil boys a lot," Water pointed out.
"Is that supposed to mean something?" Fire asked darkly.
"Now I'll have none of that," God Abba said seriously, "they're no traitors in our midst," he said, "only enemies who after they recover will be on the rampage again."
"Do we have to kill them?" Water asked.
"Yes," God Abba responded, "put all your discomfort aside," he said, "these boys are cold blooded killers created by the very monkey that attacked our world years ago."
"What!" the three girls cried in unison.
"Yes," God Abba said, "these boys were created to do evil and have done so," he told them, "now just like that monkey they've mysteriously appeared here," he continued, "and it's obvious what they want to do."
"Yeah destroy our world and you," Earth said.
"Exactly," God Abba responded, "but I still sense doubt," he said, "do any of you want to back out?" he asked.
Fire was about to say something but Earth spoke before her.
"Back out!" Earth shouted, "which spineless piece of crap would back out on something so important?" she demanded, "we're saving our world, not a slice of cake!"
"Did you want to say something Fire?" God Abba asked and the other two females turned their attention to her.
"Why are their eyes similar to ours?" Fire decided to ask instead of saying what she originally intended.
"That was your question?" Earth asked not believing it.
"What else would my question be?" Fire asked back but with a hint of a threatening tone.
"Why do you have to be so rude and hostile?" Water demanded.
"You should be asking the same question I'm asking," Fire threw at her, "more so even," she added and Earth gasped while Water looked totally taken a back.
"Stop this talk now," God Abba said suddenly.
"But…." Fire started to say.
"NOW!" God Abba roared and suddenly cave that they had been sitting in started to shake violently.
"Okay, Okay, she'll stop!" Water cried fearfully, "calm down God Abba, calm down."
After a few minutes the shaking stopped.
"Sorry, I'm greatly stressed," God Abba apologized, "now no more talk," he said, "rest," he said then said no more.
Earth and Water glared at Fire. Fire simply glared back and exited the cave to take a lone walk.

Meanwhile in the same area where Fire, Earth and Water met the three super powerful boys. Brick was walking around fine in one of the now abandoned even though still standing hotels, despite still feeling twinges of pain. Butch however had a problem. The wound that Earth had given him with her spear still hadn't started to heal yet. Brick wrapped it with bandages for him that they had found in a nearby hospital. Boomer was uninjured in the fight so he was okay. But he worried about Butch and his wound.
"Do you think it will start healing soon?" Boomer asked in reference to Butch's wound.
"Would you shut up about that already?" Butch snapped, "it should've healed fully by now and it hasn't started to heal at all, we know that!" he shouted.
"Don't get mad at him he's just worried," Brick spoke up, "and honestly, so am I," he added.
"I'll heal soon," Butch said dismissively, "no sweat."
"Actually it is sweat…I mean a problem," Brick started to say but quickly corrected himself, "if that wound takes that long to heal, imagine when we're on a full scale battle with those three," he pointed out, "we may not have seen much action from the other two," he admitted, "but it doesn't mean that they're not just as strong if not stronger."
"You worry too much," Butch told him, "we'll beat them," he declared with a flash of the hand.
"Or lose to them," Brick added.
"How can we beat them when we barely know anything about them?" Boomer asked suddenly.
"Good point," Butch agreed, "you're up to answer that one Mr. Leader," he said to Brick.
"We just have to learn about them as we travel through this world," Brick responded, "I'm stumped too."
"We sound like a winning team," Butch said sarcastically.
"We are a winning team," Brick told him, "and where's your winner stamina from earlier?" he asked.
"Up in the air like your worries," Butch said.
"I have genuine concerns," Brick said angrily.
"Concerns that slow us down," Butch said, "why can't we just go out there and kick butt?" he demanded.
"Because we got our butt kicked earlier," Brick reminded him, "if that girl Fire didn't follow orders to a T, we could've all died," he pointed out.
"I could still fight," Boomer said in a small voice.
"I know Boomer," Brick said, "but they would've sooner or later overwhelm you and probably would've used Butch and I as bait for your surrender," he added.
"I wouldn't have been any bait," Butch snapped angrily, "I could move, you were the one twitching on the crowd like some pathetic person with a seizure," he threw at Brick.
"At least I didn't go in front of her after seeing someone else suffering because they looked at her face!" Brick shouted.
"How do you know?" Butch roared.
"Boomer didn't," Brick countered, "and you're the one who's usually so down on and at him!" he cried, "have you even thanked him for saving us?"
"What for?" Butch snapped.
"For the fact that I was smart enough not to fly right in front of her face," Boomer suddenly said cuttingly and rose to his feet, "jerk," he added and flew off.
"Come say that to me again!" Butch shouted angrily.
"Get some sleep," Brick ordered and started to walk off, "maybe then you won't be so pigheaded," he said and left.
Butch stood in the room he had chosen for himself. Alone.
"I'm not pigheaded," Butch muttered then went to rest in the plush King sized bed in the bedroom suite.
