When Boomer arrived back home Brick's muscles had stopped aching and he had regained most of his strength and Butch had both woken up and had recovered most of his strength. Boomer then put his brother on the bed and then sat in front of the fire place to keep warm.

Both Brick and Butch were curious as to why Boomer seemed completely unharmed in any way "yo Boomer" Butch said "yes" Boomer replied "why aren't you hurt like us" Butch asked "and why didn't you attack those two sissies like I told you to" Brick asked also "for Butch's question we didn't fight because I didn't want to and for Brick's question I didn't want to as well" Boomer replied sticking his tongue out at them.

Both Brick and Butch were shocked at this but then their looks of shock turned into looks of rage "you mean you didn't fight that big fat cry baby because you didn't want to!" Butch shouted in a furious tone "and you didn't want to destroy that stuck-up bitch that was basically at deaths door also because you didn't want to!" Brick shouted equally as furious, Boomer just nodded.

Both Brick and Butch lunged at Boomer and began to beat him up savagely, after five minutes of this Brick and Butch opened the door "you are no longer our brother so never come back here again" Brick said and both he and Butch put as much energy as they could into their legs and then they kicked Boomer right in the butt which sent him flying straight into Townsville and crashing into a wall before falling and landing on the ground with tears coming out of his now swollen shut eyes.

Utonium house

Thanks to some Chemical X the girls were now fighting fit and were now in their room talking about their fights "I swear if the after affects of Bricks attack hadn't kicked in when they did he probably would have killed me" Blossom said "yeah it's the same here, if Butch hadn't have run out of energy when he did he possibly could have killed me, what about you Bubbles" Buttercup asked "well actually Boomer didn't fight me" Bubbles said in a happy tone "WHAT!" Both Blossom and Buttercup shouted in shock.

"why didn't he fight you" Blossom asked "I don't know he just said that he didn't want to fight me and that he didn't want to do anymore damage because he didn't feel like it anymore" she said, both Blossom and Buttercup shared suspicious looks 'why would Boomer not want to fight Bubbles' "you know girls" Bubbles said making her sisters look at her "I think Boomer could actually be a good guy if he's given the chance" she said "oh please he's a Rowdyruff Boy a good for nothing piece of garbage who's only goal in life is to destroy us" Buttercup said "I'm sorry Bubbles but I'm gonna have to agree" Blossom said agreeing with Buttercup.

Bubbles got angry at this "if he was as bad as you say then you'd be dead now!" she burst out Blossom and Buttercup looked at her in surprise "what do you mean we'd be dead" Blossom asked "Brick ordered Boomer to attack us, if he had of attacked due to your conditions he could have killed you with one simple attack if he had managed to get me away but he didn't all he said was 'make me'" Bubbles replied in a mad tone.

Both Blossom and Buttercup got thoughtful looks on their faces 'maybe he could be good... nah' they both thought, Buttercup then remembered what attacks Butch did to her "you know girls I think we should be extra careful around the Rowdyruff Boys" she said "why" both Blossom and Bubbles said "because they have been observing us and know how to do our attacks and even use them in combos" Buttercup said and then told them what had happened.

When she had finished both Bubbles and Blossom were shocked "so that means that they could find any weaknesses in our attacks and use that to their advantage" Blossom said "exactly so that means that they could possibly beat us for good next time" Buttercup said "girls dinner" the Professor called out Blossom and Buttercup zoomed down stairs with Bubbles slowly following them "I know he could be a good guy" Bubbles said quietly as she entered the kitchen.

Townsville

Boomer with what little vision he had left managed to find his way into an ally to which he sat down on the freezing ice covered ground, he had decided to just wait in the ally until his eyes weren't swollen anymore.

"Maybe if I become a good guy I'll have a better life than the one I have now" he said to himself and began to shiver as the ice cold wind blew through his ripped sweatshirt "I wish I was someplace warmer" he said as he hugged his knees and began to think about warm thoughts.

4 days later

It was now Christmas Eve and everyone in the Utonium house was excited for the arrival of the big guy known as Santa "I hope I get my Killmatic 3000 like I asked for" Buttercup said with her eyes slightly turning to Bubbles before going back "I just want to get the books that I asked for" Blossom said with a smile what about you Bubbles what's the main thing you wanted "well I kindly asked for a giant teddy bear as well as other stuff" Bubbles said in a happy tone.

"Okay girls it's time for bed, we've all got a big day tomorrow" the professor said with a smile, the reason it was going to be a big day was because they were having a huge Christmas lunch with all of their friends so they were going to be busy setting everything up for them. Within 5 minutes the girls were now in bed waiting for their dad to tuck them in after giving them each a kiss he said goodnight and then closed the door.

Several hours later Bubbles was woken up when she heard something land on the roof, she instantly knew who it was and wanted to ask him a question. Within seconds she was on the roof and saw the big guy himself Santa well looks like that's it I don't think I've ever finished delivering present this fast before" Santa said as he looked at his list and then his bag, he was about to leave when he heard a voice behind him "um Santa" he then turned around and saw Bubbles standing in front of him.

"Well, well if it isn't little Bubbles you shouldn't be up now" Santa said "I know but I wanted to ask you something" Bubbles said "for a sweet girl like you, anything" Santa said smiling "on you travels did you by any chance did you give Boomer from the Rowdyruff Boys a present" she asked "well when I went to their shack to give them their presents (meaning an avalanche of coal) I only saw Brick and Butch" he then got a smile "would you like me to find him for you" he said knowing that Bubbles had feelings for Boomer.

Santa then took off his hat and pulled out a snow globe the snow in the snow globe began to spin around until Boomer could be seen in it, he was lying on top of an old mattress that was partly covered in snow while using a garbage bag as a pillow and a newspaper as a blanket both Bubbles and Santa got sad looks on their faces.

Santa then put the snow globe back in his hat and turned to Bubbles "Bubbles I've got a job for you" Santa said "what is it" Bubbles asked "I want you to give Boomer that chance to be good" he said before he tapped his nose and Boomers sleeping form appeared in his arm "here" he said as he gave Boomer to Bubbles.

As soon as Boomer was in Bubbles arms she could feel how cold he was "thank you Santa" Bubbles said as she gave him a kiss on the cheek and then flew back inside her nice warm house Santa just smiled as he touched his nose one more time before getting back in his sled and then heading back to the north pole.

With Bubbles

After Bubbles lay Boomer down on their couch she quickly flew off to get a pillow and two blankets for him, when she came back she saw Boomer had stopped shivering and now had a happy smile on his face.

Seeing this made her smile after she had put the pillow under his head she put the blankets on top of him "sweet dreams Boomer" she said quietly and gave him a kiss on the forehead before going back to bed.

The next morning

After being woken up by their dad the three girls flew down stairs to the Christmas tree with their dad right behind them and soon they were all tearing into their presents. When Bubbles was half way through her presents she suddenly remembered that her counterpart was still sleeping on the couch. As Blossom was going through her presents she found a note "huh what's this" she said as she began to read it

Dear Blossom, Buttercup, and John Utonium

I would like to request that Boomer be allowed to stay for Christmas and also given a chance to prove that he can be a good guy, also if you don't do the above you'll all get coal… and lots of it for Christmas next year, remember I'm watching.

From Santa Claus

"Okay I think Santa has been in the North Pole too long" Blossom said "why in the world would he want that idiot Boomer to spend Christmas with us" Buttercup said "besides how are we supposed to find him" Blossom asked no one in particular "uh girls" Bubbles said "what" they replied she then pointed to the couch where Boomer was sleeping and told them what had happened.

After hearing what had happened the girls sighed "okay but if he does one thing bad he's out of here" Buttercup said before they basically dove into the rest of their presents soon there was only one present left, it was addressed to Boomer.

"Might as well wake sleeping beauty up so he can open his present" Buttercup said, Bubbles then flew up to Boomer and began to gently shake him "Boomie wake up" she said softly, Boomer then began to groan as he started to wake up, once he fully got his bearings he realised that he was in the Powerpuff girls house.

He was beginning to panic "you're not gonna kill me are you" he said in a scared voice "no Boomie we want you to spend Christmas with us" Bubbles said with a big smile "really you mean it" Boomer said with a big smile appearing on his face, Bubbles just nodded "yeah you can stay for Christmas... but I get to treat you like garbage" Buttercup said "wow what's the catch" Boomer said "if you treat Boomie badly then you'll answer to me" Bubbles said threateningly to Buttercup, Boomer then hugged Bubbles "thank you" he said as she hugged him back.

The Professor thought it was really cute and that Boomer could become a good guy, Buttercup thought the moment was sick while Blossom still had her doubts about Boomer. After Boomer and Bubbles had stopped hugging Bubbles told Boomer that he had a gift under the tree, when he opened it he found a fresh change of clothing to replace the torn ones he was wearing.

Before he could put them on the professor said that they all needed to have a bath first, Boomers first response was "what's a bath?" everyone moved back slightly the professor sighed "girls have a bath first and then I'll give Boomer one after" he said the girls nodded and flew up stairs.
