Chapter six: memory

Flashback

It was a normal day at Townsville but what made that day different from all the others was because it was the day they became friends.

Bubbles was on her pulling herself back and forth on the swing. She was alone her sisters were too busy to join her play. But she understood. She always did even though she didn't want to. I guess she's naturally that way not that there's anything natural about her.

Boomer was sitting nearby a lake to relax and stay away from his brothers. They never did understand him. They always called him names, teasing him on how weak he was. But he wasn't really in fact he is as strong as Brick, he is smarter than Butch he just didn't want to fight. And that was all. But he had to, he was created to fight and destroy her. Whether he wanted to or not.

Bubbles were distracted about something until she heard a loud splash. She flew over where it came from. She saw him, slowly drowning deep into the waters. She gasped by the sight of course by the naked eye it was unseen but from her's it was crystal clear. She shook the shock off her then jumped into the water. Of course she was freaking scared! What if she'll drown too? What if it was a tramp? What if… he was already dead? She didn't care she had to save him first.

Deep into the water she struggled to reach him. She wasn't very good at swimming. But she had to do it. When she finally got a grip of him she pulled him upwards and threw both off them out of the water. She had to perform CPR but she was afraid if she did it he might explode. So she put her hand on his stomach to let the water get out. Luckily it did, he coughed out the water. And his eyes widen when he saw his savior she hugged him but he pushed her away. She was confused.

"Why did you save me?" he asked furiously while he tried to sit up.

"Be-because that's what I do"

"I did not want to be saved!"

"Why?" she was so confused I mean who doesn't want to be saved? Or else he did it on purpose, "you tried to kill yourself?"

"Duh, why would I be there in the first place?"

"But why?"

"Be-because… it's none of your business" he was avoiding something.

"Just tell me" she copied Blossom's bossy voice.

"Why do you care? I'm your enemy…shouldn't you be happy I'm not around to kick your ass anymore?"

"I never saw you as an enemy. In fact I never saw anyone as an enemy" she said in a low voice.

He got shocked by what she said. After All these years of hitting her, pulling pranks on her she never thought of him as an enemy?

"Huh…you're bluffing"

"Am not! Now tell me why you tried to kill yourself"

He sighed in defeat "I wanted to be free."

She looked at him "but why?"

"Because I am so tired of being the weakest"

"You are not weak boomer. Understand me you are not" she was shaking him back and forth.

"Would a weak person have powers? No" he just scared in silence. "Don't you listen to them?"

Then she hugged him. Then told him this "sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me"

And from that on they became friends

End of flashback

Boomer was lying on bed thinking about that day he couldn't help but smile. She saved him. If it wasn't for her he would be dead. Then they would never be friends. I guess life has its weird way of making two people from enemies to best of friends. Since that day, he vowed to protect her. He had to repay her from saving his life that day even though he had to keep it a secret. Before Brick decided to stop them from being villains and signed an alliance between the powerpuff girls. They were now adopted by professor's college buddy Dr. Clarkson. But it still didn't mean his brother's stopped hating the girls they just stopped torturing them. He would meet up with Bubbles at the park and played till the sun sets. He could still remember to tell his brother dumb excuses and they would even believe it. That made him realize he wasn't so stupid at all.

"Hey Boomer are you hungry?" his green eyed brother's head popped out behind the door.

"Not really" he didn't look at him.

"Okay later bro"

Over the years Boomer grew more mature than his two brothers well since his best friend was after all a little childish, so he had to play the grown-up role.

Then his other brother came in. His red hair was now cut short but not too short it was slightly above his shoulders. Since butch kept teasing him about it just as much as he kept teasing about Boomer's stupid hair. He too changed his hairstyle because they got tired of hearing his insults.

"So Boomer, did you finish it?" he asked hoping his blonde brother would answer him a yes.

"No not yet"

"How come it's just a song?"

"It's not that easy making a break up song you know? And beside why don't you just break up with her in a normal way?"

Brick shook his head as he said "tsk, tsk, tsk… now, where's the creativity in that?"

Boomer just sighed as his brother left his room. Then picked up his guitar and strummed some chords, making a beautiful tune. He was ordered to make a break up song for Brick's girlfriend Candice. They all have grew tired of her after a week and of course, Brick wasn't even into relationships he was player what did you expect? I guess the girl misinterpreted what he said. Since he was a smooth talker it wasn't surprising.
