Author's note: Hello everyone, sorry it took so long to put this chapter out but most of you know what it's like during midterms and I am no exception. Anywho, midterms are over and my story is back on track. Enjoy.

Chapter 12

Old abandoned Factory

Jack is breathing heavily and holding his stomach; he throws up green goo and screams out in pain "w…what the hell?" he falls onto the floor writhing in pain. He had drunk some more of the chemical x, since his fight with Butch. He had to get stronger, Butch easily dominated him in the fight, and he had no other choice but to flea the scene. He was in hiding ever since; all he could concentrate on was getting stronger. His family didn't matter, school didn't matter, his own football career didn't matter either, and he needed to be stronger. However instead of instantly getting stronger it seemed to only make him sicker and mutate into something he couldn't even recognize anymore. He crawls over to the nearest bathroom and slowly struggles to stand up in front of the mirror above the sink. He looks into the mirror and notices that he is turning green, the pupils of his eyes were bright purple and small tentacles were protruding out of his neck. He coughs up more green bile and falls to the floor again, but this time he lays there and passes out from the pain. The Chemical slowly mutates his body even further as he lays there.

Townsville Highschool Festival

It was the day of the festival and Boomer's play was finally going on. Boomer directs everyone to do separate tasks all over the grand stage. He was grinning from ear to ear, at long last his vision was going to become a reality "ok everyone, this is it, time for us to make some magic". He goes over to Buttercup and Fred in their costumes and smiles at Buttercup directly "would someone like a good luck kiss?"

Fred winks at Boomer "absolutely".

Boomer chuckles, then suddenly stops and frowns at him "ain't happening Fred, move along".

Fred pouts but then shrugs "worth a shot", he then walks away giving them some privacy.

Buttercup laughs "gay friends are fun".

Boomer wraps his arms around her waist "I can be fun too". They kiss each other and he looks at her costume "wow you look beautiful".

Buttercup rolls her eyes "I'm in a pair of blue overalls with white paint stains on them".

"Still the hottest thing I have ever seen" Boomer says, he is about to kiss her again when Blossom floats up behind him. He senses her and sighs "and here comes the red cock blocker".

Blossom suddenly wraps her arms around him from behind "Hi Boomer, everything here looks just fantastic, your play is going to be phenomenal".

Boomer freezes and looks at Buttercup pleadingly "BC, its touching me, what should I do?"

Buttercup chuckles "Hey Bloss, you feeling ok?"

Blossom lets go of boomer and goes over to Buttercup pulling her into a hug also "oh I feel wonderful, everything is wonderful. The sun is shining, the flowers are in bloom, the birds are singing…."

"You fucked Butch didn't you?" Boomer says grinning "never thought he would boing you so soon".

Blossom smiles and approaches him again "I'm too happy to smack you right now, so I'm going to make you miserable by hugging you again". She wraps her arms around him and snuggles his cheek.

Boomer cringes trying to escape her hold on him "ewww she's touching me again". He tries to pull away but Blossom would not let go.

"By the way, I didn't have sex with Butch, but we did come to a reconciliation of our differences" Blossom says.

Flashback

Butch is in the library looking through a textbook "science sucks". He had homework that he felt it was about time he finished it.

"The world must be ending" Blossom says walking in "you're actually in a library, reading a book".

Butch rolls his eyes "I do read red".

Blossom is also holding a textbook on Greek history and sits next to him "yes but do you understand what you're reading?"

Butch quirks an eyebrow at her, she really thinks that he's that stupid. He grins at her and decides to blow her mind, letting her in on what he really knows "Atoms consist of protons and neutrons in the nucleus, surrounded by electrons that reside in orbitals. Orbital's are classified according to the four quantum numbers that represent any one particular orbital's energy, shape, orientation, and the spin of the occupying electron".

Blossom blinks at him for a moment "wow", she stares at him completely surprised "for once in my life, I am actually speechless".

Butch rolls his eyes "well I'm not all muscle, there's a brain in there somewhere". He then takes a look at her and grins "so did you just come here to insult my intelligence?"

Blossom blushes a bit "no, I mean I didn't come here for any particular reason. Just…..well…."

"You came to see me didn't you?" Butch says smiling at her.

"W….well…yes" Blossom says still blushing.

Butches eyes widened a bit "didn't expect you to actually admit that".

Blossom sighs "I guess I am just a little tired of fighting with you", she then looks over at him "aren't you tired of this back and forth bickering we always end up doing?"

"I think its fun" Butch says chuckling "I'm never bored around you".

"Well I think it's getting old" Blossom says, she then shyly puts her hand on his hand "besides, I guess I have come to the realization that you guys aren't as bad as I thought you were. Boomer is heavily involved in the play for today's festival, you're the captain of the football team and took on Jack before he flipped out on anyone else, and Brick saved Bubbles from being raped. Now that I think about it, I decided that maybe I should back off and let you guys just be yourselves instead of who I am expecting you to be".

"How very mature of you" Butch says "so that means we can do whatever we want, like take our clothes off in school and streak down the hallways".

Blossom chuckles "no way, but don't let me stop you from taking your clothes off". She then realizes what she just said and quickly covers her mouth "oh my gosh, I didn't mean the way that sounded".

"Yeah right, I see the way you've been undressing me with your eyes" Butch says, he then playfully wraps his arms around his chest and looks away "you're perverted, first you scope me out in the buck while I am showering and now your talking about taking my clothes off".

"That was an accident" Blossom says outraged "and I am not in the least bit interested in your body".

"That's too bad" Butch says leaning over the table towards Blossom "because I'm definitely interested in yours".

"W...What?" blossom says but is interrupted by Butch who has leaned over to kiss her. They both deepen the kiss, and butch caresses her hair while exploring her mouth. Blossom moans into the kiss and the two make out with one another for a long time. Blossom breaks the kiss and breaths deeply "wow". Butch grins at her and the two kiss each other again, blossom wraps her arms around his neck and slides into his lap as the two make out once again.

Flashback ends

Blossom sighs remembering that moment, not realizing that she is cutting off Boomer's circulation. She looks at boomer and suddenly lets him go "oh my gosh, sorry".

While boomer keeps on breathing, Buttercup rolls her eyes "so now you're in love?"

"Well…. Yeah I guess" Blossom says "he's kind of rough around the edges but there's a whole other side to him that I've never seen before and I like it".

"I think I'm going to hurl" Brick walks up to them bored out of his mind, he had a guitar in his hands and grins at them "so queen bitch has finally found love".

Blossom grins back at him "from what I've heard, I'm not the only one".

Brick frowns at her getting a bit paranoid "what exactly have you heard?"

"That bubbles rocked your world" Butch says wrapping his arms around blossoms waist from behind. Blossom blushes and leans against his chest as he talks, "you should have seen it blossom, she totally violated his personal space, not that he was complaining, BOW CHIKI WOW WOW".

"Enough already" Brick says "nobody violated anyone, do you know who the fuck you're talking to?" He flashes his brother a cocky grin "I am the one who does the violating not the other way around, just keep that in your head, no one out plays a playa".

"Hey Brick" Bubbles suddenly appearance makes Brick jump a few feet in shock.

"Bu….bubbles, where the hell….?" Brick stutters turning to her, he can hear Butch and Boomer chuckling in the background.

"Oh no Butch, looks like we have a sex offender in our midst" Boomer says smiling wickedly.

Butch laughs "I think he should be fitted for a chastity belt". The two burst out laughing as the other girls look at them confused.

Brick growls frustratedly "why won't you fuckers just drop it?" He holds his guitar with both hands by the handle and raises it over his head ready to use it to beat the shit out of them.

"woah, woah, woah" Blossom says grabbing the guitar before he had the chance to swing it "careful this guitar is expensive". She then looks at her watch and sighs a little "listen guys, it's time to get this show on the road, Boomer get the actors ready for the big play, Brick and bubbles you have approximately one hour to practice for the big musical number".

"You know" Buttercup says for a moment "we still have maybe 10 minutes left at the end of the festival".

"Any ideas?" Blossom asks everyone there.

"I kind of have an idea" Bubbles says raising her hand.

Blossom nods "well whatever it is, do it, Brick can help you". She turns to everyone else "ok, let's do this people". Everyone around her separates and does their own thing to get ready for the festival.

Meanwhile in Townsville

Jack lays there for what seems like an hour before the same pain that rendered him unconscious, shocks him back to the real world. He bends and wrights a little and groans from the pain. He then slowly crawls back into the bathroom, when he reaches out to grab the sink, he sees that his hand and arms are large, bulgy and green "shit, what the hell?" He growls in frustration and starts destroying everything in sight "ARRRRGH, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME?" He roars in anger and smash's everything in his path, he then falls to the floor just short of the front door. His mind and voice begin to deteriorate, he then reaches out in front of him and rips the door off its hinges he then slowly crawls out of it on his belly.

Back Townville high school auditorium

An hour and a half had passed and Boomer's play was a colossal hit, it was dramatic, exciting and was made even better with Buttercup as the main character playing a female boxer who falls for a librarian. Now it was time for the mini concert, there was just one tiny problem, Blossom comes backstage and looks over at Boomer concerned "that play ran a little over schedule".

"Masterpieces always do" Boomer says grinning with satisfaction, a couple of girls was approaching him for autographs. He then glances over at her "would you like my autograph? Only 10 dollars for you".

Blossom laughs "no thanks Mr. Diva", she then walks over to Brick and Bubbles who were practicing on their guitars "we only have enough time for one song, so which one is it going to be?"

"Ooh, ooh, oooh me, me, me" Bubbles says jumping up and down excitedly "I've got the perfect song and the band knows all about it".

"I don't know about it" Brick says quirking an eyebrow.

Bubbles giggles "it's a surprise to you, just follow our league", she and the rest of the band walked out onto the stage and Brick slowly followed watching her suspiciously. She turns to the others in the band and counts down "This is a song by Avril lavigne, one, two, one, two, three".

"Hey! Hey! You! You!
I don't like your girlfriend!
No way! No way!
I think you need a new one
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I could be your girlfriend
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I know that you like me
No way! No way!
I know it's not a secret
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I want to be your girlfriend"

Bricks eyes widen and he looks off stage wondering if this was some kind of joke on his expense. He then sees that his brothers are just as surprised as he is, they were definitely not in on it. As bubbles and the rest of the band rock out the crowd goes crazy.

"You're so fine
I want you mine
You're so delicious
I think about you all the time
You're so addictive
Don't you know what I could do to make you feel alright (alright, alright, alright)?
Don't pretend I think you know I'm damn precious
And Hell Yeah
I'm the motherfucking princess
I can tell you like me too and you know I'm right"

Brick catches up to her with his guitar, and blushes a little as Bubbles smiles at him flirtatiously.

"She's like so whatever
You could do so much better
I think we should get together now
And that's what everyone's talking about!"

[Chorus:]
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I don't like your girlfriend!
No way! No way!
I think you need a new one
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I could be your girlfriend
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I know that you like me
No way! No way!
You know it's not a secret
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I want to be your girlfriend"

Bubbles raises her arms and places her hands behind her head fluffing up her hair. She takes a sultry pose as people from the audience take pictures of her.

"I can see the way, I see the way you look at me
And even when you look away I know you think of me
I know you talk about me all the time again and again (again, again, again)"

She then gives Brick a "come hither" look, which made her look even more sexy. Bricks whole face turns red as he tries his hardest to concentrate on the music, he couldn't believe how bold this chick was.

"So come over here, tell me what I want to hear
Better yet make your girlfriend disappear
I don't want to hear you say her name ever again (and again, and again, and again!)"

Bubbles then strikes her guitar hard and does a windmill move, which gets brick excited as well.

"She's like so whatever
You could do so much better
I think we should get together now
And that's what everyone's talking about!"

Meanwhile

The people of Townsville scatter away from the huge 50 foot monster that was now on the rampage. It stomps through the city roaring in a mixture of pain and anger, it destroys everything In its path. Some of the people look at it from their apartment windows and stare at it in horror. The big green scaly beast looks back at them enraged "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU STARING AT?" it blows fire at the buildings causing the people inside to evacuate. After stomping through the city the beast stops and hears music coming from the High school outside of town "BUBBLES". He stomps his way slowly towards the outskirts of town and uses his x-ray vision to look inside the school as he makes his way towards it. He can see bubbles singing to the audience and then sees her singing to brick who in turn gravitates to her as well. The beast squints his eyes angrily "BRICK, GET AWAY FROM HER", he stomps his way towards the school.

Meanwhile inside the school

[Chorus]
"Hey! Hey! You! You!
I don't like your girlfriend!
No way! No way!
I think you need a new one
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I could be your girlfriend
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I know that you like me
No way! No way!
You know it's not a secret
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I want to be your girlfriend"

Brick is having a blast right now and he claps his hands encouraging the crowd to do the same as Bubbles continues to do a short rap.

"In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger
'cause I can, 'cause I can do it better
There's no other
So when's it gonna sink in?
She's so stupid
What the hell were you thinking?"

The audience raps with her.

"In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger
'cause I can, 'cause I can do it better
There's no other
So when's it gonna sink in?
She's so stupid
What the hell were you thinking?"

Everyone back stage is dancing to the music and brick and bubbles play back to back whipping their hair about.

"Hey! Hey! You! You!
I don't like your girlfriend!
No way! No way!
I think you need a new one
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I could be your girlfriend
No way! No way!"

They separate and rock on as the audience goes wild.

"Hey! Hey! You! You!
I don't like your girlfriend!
No way! No way!
I think you need a new one
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I could be your girlfriend
No way! No way!"

"Hey! Hey!"

Everyone applauds and cheers loudly; however the two lead guitarists look only at each other. Brick grins at her "that was the coolest thing I've ever seen you do pigtails, you're a rock star under all that fluff aren't you?"

"Yep, I mean with the right inspiration of course" Bubbles says bowing to the crowd, then her attention centers back on Brick, who for the first time ever gives her a look of total admiration. She takes this as her chance to make her public confession "you know, I never hide my emotions, I just don't know how to. So I'm sorry if this is going to embarrass you but I have to say it". She walks up to him and looks at him with love in her eyes "Brick Jojo….I lo…" Suddenly the whole auditorium shakes, as if an earthquake had sprung up. Panic and fear cascade throughout the crowd as the entire ceiling of the auditorium is ripped apart.

A huge green monster looks inside the auditorium as if looking for something or someone. He then spots his enemy "BRICK".

Brick's eyes widen in shock "GET THE FUCK OUT", before he had time to react, the monster snatches him up into his huge hand pinning his arms to his body and crushing his guitar.

The monster brings Brick up to his face and roars "STAY AWAY FROM MY BUBBLES".

Brick grimaces "OH MY GOD!...your breath smells like shit dude". He then takes a good look at the beast "Jack?" The monster roars in extreme anger at him and he spread his bat like wings, he fly's off with Brick clutched in his palm.

"BRICK" Bubbles fly's after them.

Blossom zooms after her along with the others "Bubbles wait", she zooms off and Buttercup follows her as the two remaining brothers look on in shock.
