Chapter 26: Blossom and Buttercup
Blossom impatiently stands outside Room 262 in the Townville Hospital two days later; those who had been hurt and injured at Mount Blackhead were all on the same floor but there hadn't been a release on the names of people who had been hurt expect for Buttercup.
Blossom pushes open the door and finds Buttercup sitting up in bed in a green hospital gown. She had a few stitches on her forehead and a few minor injuries, but the hospital wanted to keep her one more night to make sure she made a full recovery.
Ace sits beside her bed, having been there a while to visit her, but there indicated tension in his voice as he talked. "Well how about it, babe? You don't have to give me an answer now, but I won't take no as an option when it comes to helping fight this war."
Buttercup's face is all red and there, in Ace's hand, sat a beautifully designed ring box. "Ace, I know you and the others would want to join the fight at some point, but what are you going to use for weapons?"
Ace smiles a big fang smile and says, "Dexter turned our instruments into sonic weapons, so we can provide you or others with musical back up." Buttercup who was still red, looks down at the box and then at Ace who has a big smile on his face.
There are tears in her eyes but they were happy tears, "Yes, I will marry you, Ace." She hugs him tightly as she accepts the ring, and Ace hugs her back with a normal smile on his face and then they kiss.
Blossom feels embarrassed having walked in on them on such a private moment. As they break the kiss, they then notice Blossom awkwardly standing there.
Buttercup turns red once more and says, "So you heard all that, sis?" Blossom smiles and says, "Congrats Buttercup. Ace you better take good care of her."
Ace laughs and responds, "I've been taking care of her for awhile so this shouldn't be that different."
Buttercup notices that Blossom wasn't frantic, she must not have known about what had happened to Holden yet. She then says, "Have you gone to visit Holden yet?"
Blossom turns around quickly, "HE'S HERE? WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM!"
Buttercup looks at the wall and responds, "The moron told me to drop him, so I could fight and he broke three ribs. The doctor thinks he might have had a concussion. Holden was also stabbed by a fusion before being saved by Boomer, He's lucky that he doesn't need surgery, but he hasn't woken up yet."
Blossom tightens her grip on the door handle, furious, "You let him talk you into dropping him? What kind of a bone headed move was that?"
Buttercup calmly responds as Ace sits quietly beside her, "One that was supposed to save our lives. Blossom, if I didn't drop him we might have both been killed."
Blossom was now vividly angry, her checks were turning a deep red, "That doesn't mean dropping him on the nearest tree! You could have dived down and dropped him closer to the ground!"
Buttercup twitches at her sister's remark, feeling more angry, "If I did that, we could have been killed anyway."
Buttercup then slaps Blossom, leaving a small bruise on her face. Blossom backhands Buttercup across the face which then leads to Buttercup getting out of bed. She puts Blossom in a headlock and starts to pull her hair. Blossom, feeling much pain, jabs her thumb into Buttercup's eye. In retaliation, Buttercup rips a large section from the bottom of Blossom's dress. They start punching and slapping each other destroying the door to the room and taking the fight out into the hallway.
Deedee spots them at the other end of the hallway and runs over to stop the fight, "Please stop this. This is no way for…"
Both Blossom and Buttercup shout, "SHUP UP DEEDEE!" They inadvertently hit Deedee through the wall into the janitor's closet where she falls into a bucket full of water.
They then go back down the hallway kicking and punching and ripping more clothes. Bubbles steps out of the elevator at that moment and is nearly kicked by Blossom in the face.
Bubbles then firmly stands in between them, "Why are you two fighti…"
Buttercup then slaps her across the face and Blossom tears a hole in her left hosiery legging, dragging Bubbles into the violent cat fight. The heart shaped barrette and Blossom's ribbon comes undone and fall to the floor. The scrunches that are in Bubbles hair snap and her hair drops down.
Their fight goes through another door and into another room. Juniper Lee and Ace both run frantically into the room as well.
Ace grabs Buttercup, "Whoa babe, settle down. You're gonna destroy the entire hospital if you keep this up."
Juniper restrains Blossom. "Are you trying to disturb the patients?"
Bubbles stands off in the distance panting. Her clothes were torn and her face and arms were bleeding.
She sniffs and tries not to cry but eventually says, "Apologize to one another." Most of Blossom's mid section was exposed, her sleeves were missing, her arms were bleeding from several large nail marks, and one of her shoes wasn't on her feet.
She sighs and mumbles, trying to avoid eye contact, "I'm sorry I yelled at you and got into that fight with you, Buttercup. Holden was just trying to look out for you. I shouldn't have gone off on you like that." Buttercup's gown had the arms ripped off and the stitches had been ripped out of her forehead and she was bleeding as well.
She looks away and says, "Yeah whatever, I'm sorry that we got into the stupid fight."
They hear a sound from the bed behind them and Holden sits up. He had a few small bandages on his face and set around his mid section.
"What's with all the noise? Agghhh…I shouldn't have sat up." He lies back down slowly.
Bubbles answers a huffy response, "They got into a fight."
Holden groans and says, "What did you two get into fights about this time?"
Bubbles looks at her sisters and although already knowing the answer, she indicates for them to tell Holden about their childish behavior.
She then says facing her sisters, "Well, what was it about?"
Blossom looks at her feet and says, "If it was Buttercup's fault for Holden getting hurt."
Holden shakes his head while clutching his painfully hurting chest, "It's not her fault. I was the one who told her to drop me, I guess I should have specified where."
Buttercup and Blossom look at one another with guilty expressions on their faces. If their fight hadn't been stopped, Holden would've probably been more hurt than he was now. Blossom kneels down and kisses him as Juniper finally releases her arms.
