Blossom's POV:
"Come on, Blossom." My littlest sister Bubbles said, her voiced hushed. "We have to leave before mom wakes up!" she walked hastily to the mirror to finish tying one of her pigtails. Bubbles wore her favorite light blue mini dress and white stockings. She slipped into her black slippers as her free hand reached for the black, Victorian style corset. Apparently, wearing a small corset around your waist is the latest fashion.
"I'm almost done!" I said, my voice also hushed so no one outside the room could hear. I hurriedly tied one large red bow in my hair. I know I'm too old for bows, but the red bow is my signature trademark. I look at myself in the full-length mirror. My hot pink, long sleeved shirt with a V-line neckline was feeling a bit smug around my waist but my white jeans still fit me well.
"Your Bow is loose." A voice said behind me, making me jump out of my skin and nearly have a heart attack.
"BUTTERCUP!" I hissed. "I wish you would stop doing that!" Buttercup is my younger sister. She's two minute older than Bubbles but thirty seconds younger than I am. I don't know how that works, but mom said that Buttercup came out at full speed a second after she gave birth to me.
"I was just telling you that your bow is loose!" She defended, crossing her arms. She had just finished changing into a green tank top and her favorite white jean that were ripped at the knees, and was faintly dusted with black sparkles.
"Oh," I said as my hands touch my bow, founding out she was right. "Thanks, but you should know better than to go all ninja on me." she shrugged as she walked off, gathering her long black hair into a high ponytail so it wouldn't touch the ground. Since my sisters and I are the main daughters of the Yuki-onna clan, we have to follow some feminine traditions set by our ancestors. In other words, we are never allowed to cut our hair.
Buttercup has a pretty laid-back for the most part, unless you get her angry. If that ever happens, my advice is to spend your last few moments with your family and friends, or your hidden stash of bacon, whichever comes first.
"We have to go before mom comes!" Bubbles pleaded. I grabbed my pink purse as Bubbles picked up her purple octopus and Buttercup grabbed her backpack.
"Don't have to tell me twice," Buttercup said with a smirk, already half way out the window. She leaned her head farther out the window, looking for a good place to land when we jump out of the fourth story window.
"Where do you think you girls are going?" a voice asked sternly from behind us. We flinched in unison, slowly turning around to see our mom standing in the doorway, arms crossed. She was still wearing her short kimono.
"And what are you three wearing?" she finally asked. In our land, our kind is very traditional, and close to our culture. While most wear kimonos and yukatas, my sisters and I prefer wear modern clothes like jeans, shirts, shorts and tennis shoes.
"I'm innocent!" I said almost immediately, throwing my purse out of sight. "They tried to drag me with them and I knew that I would be blamed if they left by themselves so-"
"Oh no you don't!" Buttercup cut in. "not this time, Pinky! You're not going weasel your way out of this! If we go down, then you are going down with us." She jabbed my chest with her finger.
"I am merely telling the truth." I defended, covering the area where she jabbed with my hand. Sometimes I think she's too strong for her own good.
"Oh please, you were more than eager to get out of this place when I told you my plan!" she countered. Bubbles, who was still there, started sobbing.
"No more fighting!" Bubbles wailed. She's tends to cry a lot since she was a kid. Buttercup and I continued to argue while Bubbles cried. Oddly enough, this happens often.
"ENOUGH!" Mom screamed, grabbing our attention and silencing Bubbles crying. "If you girls wanted to leave to hang out with your friends or something, then why didn't use the front door?"
The girls and I all looked at our mother as if she has gone completely insane.
"Who are you and what have you done to our mother?" Buttercup said suspiciously, crossing her arms as well. Our mom is very strict when it comes to the Yuki-onna clan's reputation and well-being. She never let us outside our home because we have a duty to attend all meetings concerning our clan, the well-being of our race, and having peaceful bonds with other monster clans.
"Relax," our mother said with a sigh. "I'm only saying you girls can go out and have fun today. I made sure that we have no meeting or events to attend."
"Really?" Bubbles gasped excitedly, hugging her stuffed octopus.
"What's the catch?" I asked, a bit suspicious.
"Who cares?" Buttercup cheered. "FREEDOM!" with that she jumped out the window with on quick motion.
"BUTTERCUP!" we all yelped, running towards the window.
"WHOO-HOO!" Buttercup yelled with joy as her eyes glowed green, hands shooting out blasts of cold pressure, making a slide of pure ice on her way down. When a Yuki-onna is using her powers, her eyes glow for multiple reason, but I don't want to reveal that information just yet.
"Honestly, that girl!" our mom said with a dramatic sigh. "Both your father and I are such calm, level-headed people! I wonder where she gets her rebellious and loud personality." Bubbles and I looked at each other, both wanting to say that she inherited it from our mom.
"Well, we should get going now," I said, backing away innocently, slightly dragging Bubbles with me.
"Ok, just remember to take your phones with you in case I need to reach you." she said motherly, as she waved us off.
*Buttercup's POV*
"Freedom baby!" I yelled at the top of my lungs, using my powers to create floating ice crystals around me as I danced alittle.
"Wow Buttercup, you dance like a gypsy!" Bubbles exclaimed with glee. I laughed and grabbed her hand. We both started to dance without any music. We probably looked like a bunch of idiots, but that only made us laugh harder.
"Honestly you two." Blossom sighed, a disapproving look on her face.
"Oh come on, Pinkie!" I said as Bubbles and I speed waltz around her. "Dance with us!" Bubbles and I grabbed her hands and we twirled her around rhythmically in circles until her eyes looked like swirls.
"Ok, I feel like I'm going to throw up now." Blossom mumbled, indirectly telling her sisters to stop spinning her.
"Sorry Blossom! Do you need me to get you some unfrozen juice?" Bubbles asked, gentle concern dripping from her voice. Blossom smiled at her sister, but then noticed that she held a purple octopus in her arms.
"Bubbles," Blossom said with a sigh. "Why do you still carry that thing? You're a seventeen-year-old young lady now; you don't need that thing anymore."
"Octi is very special to me! I will keep it with me forever!" Bubbles defended. Blossom and I looked at each other, both of us knowing why it was special.
"Whatever," I said, changing the subject. "Come on, Robin and Mitch is probably waiting for us in the village!"
*take skip! Bubbles's POV*
"Mitch, Robin!" Buttercup exclaimed as she ran and nearly pounced on them. "Dudes, how you guys been?" We all grouped hugged. We were even able to drag Mitch into the hug too!
"We've been alright," Robin replied. "Whoa, we haven't seen you guys in a year. You guys look incredible!"
"Thanks, you look great too." Blossom said with a smile.
"Mitch, pick up your jaw and wipe that drool off." Buttercup instructed smugly, her arms crossed over her chest. Mitch looked embarrassed, his face completely red. I don't blame him for staring; it's common knowledge that when the head daughters of the Yuki-onna clan turn seventeen, they are blessed with goddess-like beauty. No one knows why, but judging by how my mom, my aunt and my grandmother looked like when they reached seventeen, it's true.
"Honestly Mitch! You were looking at girls again?" Robin said, smacking the back of his head. "What am I going to do with you?"
"I see you guys haven't changed a bit!" Blossom laughed. Robin had always been looking after Mitch since we were kids. Well someone has to, with Mitch's flirting and wondering eyes, he's going to get into trouble if no one is watching.
"Hm, looks like our dear friend have some future plans." Buttercup said with a sly smile gracing her lips.
"What do you mean?" I asked naively. I'm honestly not this naive but I am generally clueless when it comes to some subjects.
"Look at their left hands." Buttercup said. I looked and gasped in shock. Blossom noticed too since she squealed and hugged robin.
"Matching engagement rings!" I squealed in pure joy. "OH MY GOODNESS, THIS IN AMAZING!" Blossom and I congratulated Robin.
"Looks like you were finally able to trick a girl into marrying you after all, Mitch." Buttercup teased, draping one arm over his shoulder. "Way to go, dude!" She acts more like 'one of the guys' than one of the highly ranked daughters of the royal Yuki-onna clan that she is.
"So when's the wedding?" Blossom asked.
"We haven't decided yet," Robin answered. "Anyway, I was hoping that you three could be my maids of honor."
"YES!" I squealed.
"Wait, I thought wedding only one maid of honor or something," Buttercup cut in, leaning her weight towards Mitch, who looked ashamed because he was shorter then she is, so it made him look less manly.
"Whatever, it's my wedding so I can do whatever I want!" Robin said victoriously and let out a hearty laugh. Some old Robin.
"Enough with this wedding talk," Buttercup cut in. "do you know what time it is?" we all had a the same grinning smile.
"IT'S ONSEN TIME!" we cheered in unison. For those who don't know what an onsen is, an onsen is means hot springs in Japanese.
*time skip, Narration*
"It's been so long seen we all went to an onsen!" Bubbles said in the girls' locker room, peeling off her dress to reveal a blue bikini.
"It's nice not having any meetings or events to attend too, once in a while." Blossom said as she took off her clothes, leaving behind her pink bikini bra and swimsuit skirt behind.
"Yeah, plus no one even knows how we look like since we always have to be behind that curtain." Buttercup added as she adjusted her green one-piece swimsuit that showed her bare back.
"What are you guys wearing?" Robin asked.
"It's called a swimsuit." Blossom answered. "Apparently, during summer people wear swimsuits while they swim."
"Oh yeah!" Robin exclaimed. "I heard that in some places, it doesn't snow during summer. Instead, it's hot, and many people eat snow cones."
"Yeah," Bubbles agreed. "I always went to go to a bleach."
"Bleach?" Buttercup repeated questioningly. "I think you mean beach."
"Oh right, heh heh heh." Bubbles said sheepishly. They entered through the sliding door in the end of the locker room to reveal a beautiful hot spring. The air felt warm due to the steam from the hot springs but was greeted with a cool breeze since the hot springs was outside after all.
"Yes, no people!" Buttercup practically sang. "We have the hot spring all to ourselves!" Buttercup ran up close to the spring, and cannon balled into the water, sending splashes to her two sisters and friend.
"BUTTERCUP!" they shrieked in unison as the sudden splash of water hit them. Five seconds later, Buttercup finally emerged from under water. Moving her wet raven hair from her face, she called out to her sisters and friend.
"Come on in! The water is great!" a while later, Blossom and Robin were relaxing in the hot spring while Bubbles and Buttercup had a contest to see who could hold their breath the longest. So far, they've been under water for two minutes and forty-two seconds.
"So what about you guys?" Robin asked, breaking the comfortable silence.
"What about us?"
"Did you guys found that special someone, yet?" She asked slyly.
"w-what brought this up?" Blossom said hesitantly.
"Well, your guys have a little less than a year before you all turn eighteen, and you do know what happens to yuki-onnas when they turn eighteen, right?"
"Yes," I said mournfully. "When a Yuki-onna comes near her eighteenth year of age, her body becomes too weak to support her powers, and soul. When it's too late, she dies and her soul becomes like a demons, with her powers still attached."
"The only way to prevent this from happening is to have a mate." Robin continued. "A Yuki-onna can take the life force from their mate."
"And that is why many of us marry before the age of eighteen." I said finally. "But, I want to marry for love, not because it's a life or death."
Bubbles surfaces from underwater with a loud gasp, startling Robin and Blossom.
"That's cheating!" she yelled at Buttercup as she also surfaced, except she surfaced calmly and with a victorious smirk on her face.
"Was not!"
"Was too!"
"You two stop fighting!" Blossom scolded. Buttercup and Bubbles looked at each other.
"Yes, ma'am." They said in unison.
"Bossy." Buttercup muttered under breath. Bubbles relaxed against a rock while Buttercup decided to swim around.
"But it's not about life or death." Robin urged, rekindling their previous conversation. "I thought the same thing, but I wasn't thinking about the fact that I'll be turning eighteen in ten months and that I was running out time. I really did fall in love with Mitch. Even though he can be an idiot and pervert."
"No I'm not!" a male voice yelled. The girls looked up to see Mitch, hanging clumsily on the wall that separated the girls' only hot spring from the boys' only hot spring. He was obliviously trying to get a peek at the girls.
"Mitch!" the girls yelled, outraged. Buttercup swam up to the wall, and hit it with her fist, causing the wall to wobble.
"Whoa!" Mitch yelled out as he lost his balanced. He landed on the girls' only hot spring. When he surfaced from the water, he saw four pair of glowing eyes glaring at him and the temperature dropped dramatically.
"oh-uh" he said, before hell broke loose.
*time skip*
"It's been great hanging out with you guys again." Blossom said with a gentle smile. "Even though Mitch was spying on us while we were taking a bath."
"Yeah, sorry about Mitch." Robin apologized. "Sometimes I think I need to put him on a leash." Mitch was slightly injured and was being pulled by the ear by his fiancé who was shorter than he was by five inches.
"It's ok; it's been so long since I taught this guy a lesson." Buttercup said with a cocky smile.
"I didn't fight back because you're a girl." Mitch muttered under his breath, barely hearable. Buttercup took a threaten step forward.
"Did you say something?"
"Nothing!" Mitch quickly said, causing everyone to laugh.
"Relax Mitchie boy, I was only teasing." Buttercup said; bring up his most hated childhood nickname.
"Well, we should be getting home," Bubbles said as she looked at the screen of her phone. "Mom called thirty-seven times in the last half hour."
"Oh no, what did Buttercup do this try?" Blossom sighed.
"HEY I didn't do anything!" Buttercup defended. ". . . This time, anyway." Bubbles called her mom, and put her on speaker.
"Hi mom, you called?"
"GET YOU AND YOUR SISTER'S BUTTS OVER HERE!"
"Mom, chill out. You said it yourself that we could go out this time without having anyone coming or meetings to attend to." Buttercup tried to reason with her mother.
"THAT WAS BEFORE MOJO CALLED SAYING THAT HE WAS DROPPING BY!" She screamed.
"Mojo?" everyone, including Robin and Mitch, questioned, not knowing who this Mojo person was.
The girls heard their father's voice in the background. Though they couldn't make out most the words, it seems like he was trying to get the phone from their mom.
"Girls, I'm sorry to cut your time with your friends short but it seems like the head of the vampire clan is paying us a visit." The professor said, shocking them.
"The head of the vampire clan?" this was not something they ever heard before. They have heard rumors about the vampires, but they never met the clan before.
"Please come home, soon." The professor said, and then added: "please hurry, I don't think I can stop your mother from killing anyone when she's like this." his voice was hushed Sarah wouldn't hear him.
"Alright dad, we're on our way." Blossom said and she hanged up the phone.
"You guys better be careful." Mitch warned. "I heard that the Vampire clan is planning to eliminate the seven powerful clans to become the superior race."
"That sounds scary." Bubbles whimpered. When she was younger, Buttercup use to scare her by telling her that there was a vampire dog under her bed, and it wanted to eat her alive, and rape Octi.
"Those are only rumors," Blossom said sternly. "Plus, it's our duty to be there when guest are coming."
"Just watch your back," Mitch said worriedly.
"Aw, is Mitchie boy worried about us?" Buttercup teased, earning a glare from Mitch. "I was just kidding, dude. Come on, it was a joke, and don't worry. The yuki-onna clan is stronger than any vampire."
They said their goodbyes and the girls made their way home. It took them forty-five minutes to get there since they didn't bring enough money to call a cab to take them home so, sadly, they had to walk.
"My legs are getting tired!" Bubbles whined, her arms carrying her stuffed purple octopus as if it weighed a hundred pounds.
"We're almost there Bubbles." Blossom said, dragging her feet through the snow-covered ground. Bubbles turned to Buttercup, who was still full of energy.
"How can you not be tired?" Bubbles asked wearily.
"I shall never reveal my secret of everlasting energy! Mah ha ha!" Buttercup laughed. As they walked by shops and large buildings, they noticed a group of women, girls, and old ladies trying to get through the front door of their house.
"What the heck is going on?" Buttercup said, listening to the mob of females.
"YOU CANT HOG ALL THE VAMPIRE LOVE TO YOURSELVES!"
"THEIR FANGS BELONGS TO EVERYONE!"
"THIS IS SO UNFAIR!" a little girl screamed. "I WANT A VAMPIRE TO SUCK MY BLOOD!"
"GIVE US BACK OUR HOT VAMPIRES, YOU CRACKSNIFFERS!" an old lady yelled, waving her cane in the air.
"How are we going to get inside?" Bubbles asked uncertainly, not wanting to get anywhere near the mob.
"Young Mistresses!" two voices called. The girls turned, and saw Niyuki and Miyuki, the welcoming committee and the head maids.
"Niyuki, Miyuki" Blossom said, relief to see familiar faces. "What in the world is going on?"
"We have no time to explain." Miyuki started.
"We must help you prepare!" Niyuki finished. Before another could be said, the-might-be-twins dragged them to a door on the side of the house, basically carrying them to the kimono fitting room.
"Hey!" Bubbles yelped when her clothes were ripped off, as well as her sisters.
"What's the big idea?" Buttercup yelled, outraged. The girls stretched out their arms when the kimono robes appeared. Kimonos have many folds and knots so sometimes you'll have to ask someone to help you get in one.
Two minute later, Buttercup found herself in a light silk kimono. The kimono was black but had large green leaves design on it. It looked very flattering on her as Miyuki but some beads and green-jewel-like accessories in her long black hair.
Blossom looked at the mirror to see herself in a white kimono with a cherry blossom pattern on it. Her hair was pulled into a high ponytail, and decorated with white crystal peals.
Bubbles was surprised to see a pretty blue with white cloud design kimono on her. Her hair was already in pigtails so Miyuki and Niyuki just a bit of glitter and pressed see-through crystals to her blond hair. The girls didn't have any make-up, not that they needn't it.
Quickly, with a green fan, a pink fan, and a blue fan shoved into their hands, they were pushed into a room where her mother and father were waiting for them, as well as four unfamiliar faces.
Out of habit, the girls opened their fans and hid the bottom part of their face. There wasn't a curtain-like shade where the girls usually have to be behind when company arrives. Why, you ask. It's one of their strange traditions where the young maidens hid behind current to hide their beauty until they wed. . . . Wait . . .
"Mom . . . what's going on?" Buttercup asked suspiciously, lowering her fan, giving the boys a clear look at her doll perfect face.
"Girls please look at the young men in front of you," her mom instructed excitedly. Their father was absolutely clue-less to what was going on. Reluctantly, the girls turned their gaze to the unnaturally attractive guys in front of them.
"Boys," Mojo said.
"Girls," Sarah followed.
"Say hello to your fiancés!" mojo and Sarah said in unison. The professor jaw dropped to the ground and his face paled. Butch, Boomer, Brick, Bubbles, Buttercup and Blossom lost nearly lost their minds.
"MY WHAT!?"
