Bubbles stood, unable to breath. Cosmo was in their camp and she bet Timmy would be right behind him. Then they heard "Help!" And they bolted out. In the clearing Blossom stood sword drawn at Timmy's throat. "Blossom! What are you doing?" She yelled. Blossom stiffened and without looking up said, "Getting revenge." Bubbles screamed, "You can't Blossom! Get a hold of yourself!" But Blossom was quite intent on her act. "Why shouldn't I? He deserves it for committing murder! She yelled. "What? Murder? I didn't commit any sort of murder!" Timmy choked out. "Don't act stupid, you killed the professor!" Blossom yelled. "The professor? I didn't touch him! The only reason I know he isn't here is that Dimentio said that he wouldn't be in the games! I had just thought that he'd given up his place!" Jimmy shook his head, "no, he didn't switch. They had a whole other reaping." Bubbles squeaked, " then what happened to the professor?" She asked tentatively. "I don't really know. All I know is I heard this bang after the ceremony. Then I heard another. It came from your room so I raced in. And when I got there the professor lay on the ground dead! He was dead before I got in!" He said. Blossom lifted her sword, processing all the information. Bubbles was silent. If Timmy was telling the truth, than what killed the poor professor? Out of the corner of her eye a pink haired lady came out, scratches and cuts all over. She seen Blossom raise her sword and dove in between Blossom's sword and Timmy. The sword made contact with her and pierced Wanda. Wanda dropped lifelessly on the ground, and Bubbles screamed. Blossom's eyes shrunk to small dots, "No! It wasn't supposed to go like this! I wasn't supposed to kill an innocent. What have I done?" Blossom pelted off but Bubbles wasn't going to let her off the hook, sister or not. She tackled Blossom and they both tumbled on the ground. Getting up she readied her Butterfly Swords. Blossom had an iron sword, with blood staining it's steel cold edge. "What's wrong with you, Blossom?" She pleaded. "Ou want to know what's wrong Bubbles? That kid killed the professor, okay. And no one seems bothered besides me! Do you care that he died? If I don't kill him, the professors death will be in vain." The words spilling out of Blossom's mouth hit Bubbles like a brick. "I care," she said quietly, "but unlike you, I don't want to have to take revenge to redeem myself. I've moved on. Listen, would you rather him live through this? Where he might have to turn on his own kids? No, he wouldn't. He'd rather die." Then a thought creeped its way into Bubbles head and it made perfect sense. "Think about it." She said to a speechless Blossom, "He wouldn't want to live if he had to possibly hurt us, or watch us get hurt, so what did he do? He hoped that if he left we would get recompense, ok? And he did leave. He killed himself." Blossom grew angry, "no! Impossible! Then why did Timmy say he shot twice? Surely when one commits suicide he doesn't miss?" Bubbles shook her head, "no, he shot once, a shot to make someone notice. He didn't want us to know that he shot himself, he shot once to alert someone, Timmy. And again to take his life. Timmy said that by the second shot he knew it was at our room, so in all the professors plan worked." Blossom cringed then leaped at Bubbles.
Buttercup wiped tears from her eyes, she cried, "stupid piece of fluff. I told you to call me if you needed help." She stared at Pooh, he had died in his sleep, no less, as besides a gaping hole in his stomach, he was, or rather seemed quite content. She walked off growling. Whoever did this to Pooh, well, they would get a Buttercup Punch Sandwich. She decided going to the capucornia would be the best approach. She walked there, silent and then found herself humming a familiar tune. When she finally reached the capucornia, it was barren. Coming up towards the front, she seen Timmy, some lady and who she assumed was Jimmy Neutron. Slipping in she found a crossbow she poked it in case of traps. Nothing. Grabbing it and some food, she raced out. In the woods she heard a conversation. Now Buttercup did her share of eavesdropping so she knew that being quiet was essential. "So in all the professors plan worked." What plan? She peeked in and saw Blossom frigid and stiff and Bubbles who had been sadly explaining the professors 'plan'. Then Blossom jumped. Buttercup was frozen, then, Bubbles blocked just in time. "You!" Blossom growled through grit teeth. "You left me! You were going to let me die!" What? Now Buttercup was completely confused. "But you had Buttercup!" Bubbles said straining to block. At the sound of her name she perked up. Blossom attacked, smashing upward, but Bubbles was to quick, and dodged skillfully. Bubbles then caught Blossom's sword in hers, and twisted, disarming her Blossom stumbled back and smashed her head on a nearby tree. "Where am I? Bubbles?" Bubbles walked nervously closer, and Blossom sprang up, grabbing Bubbles. She smashed Bubbles on a tree and began to talk." Do not ever mention that person to me. At least you had the decency to tell me. When I asked Buttercup she said, 'work with you, leader-girl don't make me laugh!' Buttercup is a cruel heartless sister who wouldn't care heads or tails if I died right here, right now! I told the professor that she was a screw-up! She will die if it's the last thing I live to see." Buttercup froze, so that was what Blossom thought of her then. She wiped her eyes, first her partner dies, now Blossom wants her blood? Talk about a bad day. "And you, Bubbles!" I had it all figured out. You would do the surviving That Mistake would defend us," Mistake? With a pang of sadness Buttercup realized Blossom was talking about her. "And I would sacrifice Her and I to make sure you returned to Townsville." Bubbles sighed, defeated. "My sister was not a mistake. You aren't my sister, you were the mistake." Buttercup broke out of her trance and aimed her bow at Blossom. "Tonight!" Blossom yelled, eyes red, " You will die!" Without a second thought Buttercup let go. Her arrow flew into Blossoms back and lodged itself forward. Buttercup sighed, "Not tonight, leader-girl."
Bubbles whimpered, during the night she had just seen Wanda get killed, and by her sister nonetheless, and Blossom get killed by Buttercup. She felt like passing out, simply sleeping and never getting up. "Ngg..." Blossom! She must still be alive! Buttercup raced over and kneeled down by Blossom. "I'm sorry, Bloss." Buttercup said, her eyes red as if she'd been crying, but Bubbles wouldn't press her, Buttercup would say something got in her eye or something. Blossom shed a tear as well, "it's okay, you had to save Bubbles. It was my ambition and madness that drove me back." Blossom weakly held her arms out, as if expecting a hug. Buttercup eyed her suspiciously and then returned the hug. "Buttercup, there is one more thing I must do before I die." Buttercup sniffled, "yeah?" Then Bubbles seen a flash in Blossoms eye, a red one. She was about to scream 'Buttercup, No!' But Blossom yelled, "I'm going to take you with me!" Pulling out a concealed knife she jabbed at Buttercup, making contact with Buttercup's side. Buttercup let out a cry of pain as Bubbles yelled, "No! Buttercup!" She pushed Blossom off her and yanked out the arrow lodged deep in Blossom's chest. With a quick fluid movement she thrust it back in, right into Blossom's heart. She sat there crying for who knows how long. Blossom disappeared into golden dust in the wind, yet strangely Buttercup didn't. 'Wait, that must mean Buttercup is still alive!' She thought. Picking up her swords and re-sheathing them. She grabbed Buttercup and started walking back to the capucornia. Jimmy was there, waiting for her. "B, are you okay? I didn't see you and assumed that Blossom ran off into the forest with you and-" Bubbles cut him off, "I'm fine, really. But Buttercup isn't." She said setting Buttercup on the cold floor. "Well, don't put her there. Here I'll get a blanket." He quickly got a blue tarp and a white blanket. He also grabbed an Ace Bandage and set it down on the blanket. As Bubbles set buttercup down, Jimmy warped the Ace Bandage around the cut. Jimmy sighed, "I'm afraid she may not make it." He said. "The cut is seriously deep, if not already, infection will get in there. Besides that, the wound is quite deep. She may lose to much blood and-" "Stop!" Bubbles cut in, she didn't want to hear all the terrible ways her only remaining sister could die. "I'm sorry, I just- well I want to hope that Buttercup can make it through. " Jimmy wrapped his arm protectively around her, "I understand, just try to get some sleep, Okay? I'll wake you up when it's your turn to take guard." Bubbles nodded, "Okay, but I want to see the board standings." She stepped outside and watched the Anthem play while pictures of Wanda, Blossom and-wait was that, Pooh-Bear? She sighed and walked off to a sleeping bag and tried to catch some sleep.
Buttercup's side burned like fire. Or like Him's voice. Either way it was unbearable, and she couldn't stand it. "Bubbles, is it supposed to feel like a saber-toothed tiger is biting my side?" Bubbles forced a smile, "Um well, yeah, you did get stabbed." Buttercup sighed, "I can't believe I fell for Blossom's stupid trap. Some help I must be." Bubbles raised her voice, "No, you will be able to help. As soon as you get better." Buttercup growled, "and when will that be? A month? 2? Listen Bubbles, I know you're just trying to help, but, really? I can't do anything. I can't even sit up." Bubbles sighed, "Yeah, I know. Hey what happened with Pooh-Bear?" Buttercup stiffened, remembering the unsettling sight of Pooh, laying in the hollowed out tree trunk, Dead. "Yeah, he died. Look, I really don't want to talk about it, Going to sleep." She then tried to sleep, but it was late afternoon, and quite warm out. Finally sleep crept up to her and she slipped into unconsciousness.
When Buttercup woke up, Bubbles had left. She struggled at getting up, for a second. But then she noticed something, her side healed! At least it didn't hurt anymore. She tentatively pulled away the Ace Bandage, to reveal that she had healed. "Nice!" She said. "I see that you're better." An all too familiar voice talked, slyly Dimentio walked into view. "Dimentio!" Buttercup yelled. Dimentio nodded, "My dear Buttercup, I've come to tell you that you will not make it out of this arena alive. I've only healed you because, you see, betting polls have gone through the roof when you and Blossom faced off and when people see that you're still okay, they will skyrocket again." Buttercup growled and lunged at Dimentio, but he vanished before she got a good chance. Although he was gone, his words still burned into her mind, "You will not make it out of this arena,". So she would die here. Great. Well she best make her last days count. Bubbles walked in and yelled, "Buttercup?" Buttercup smirked and turned around, "You bet. We're gonna win this thing, I know it."
