Bubbles P.O.V

When I woke up, I was cuddling a sleeping Butch's arm. How embarrassing! Now I'm staring at Buttercup, Boomer, and Brick as they talk back and forth nonstop. It seems they are trying to come up with a plan. I start shaking Butch awake. This is serious so we need everyone on board. Butch mumbles himself awake and stares at me. I smile at him.

"Good morning!" I say happily.

"It's morning?!" Butch says fearfully.

"Um...I don't know."

"Oh! Don't scare me like that! I would never wake up early!"

I giggle, "That's what you're worried about?"

"Well, Duh! If I don't act like myself, then we are all doomed!"

"Hehe, I guess we would worry!"

"Thank you!" Butch sits up and stares at the three. "What's going on?"

"They are making a plan I think"

"Hmm...We need to attack as soon as possible. Kill them all!"

"That's mean!"

"Sacrifices must be made in order to create peace"

"Uh..."

"Will you two get over here already?!" Buttercup sneers at us. We both look at each other, shrug, and go over. Brick looks stressed, but then again, he's been going through this way longer than us. I take a deep breathe to calm myself. Brick said he needed heroes in order to defeat the Red eyes. Perhaps me and Buttercup could help. We do know the AWSM and we could call Bullet. Would that be enough?

"Me and Buttercup could get some heroes together" I interrupted them all. "You said that was the way to defeat the eyes, correct?"

"Yes, That's what they did in the past. All the heroes came together."

"So that's what we need to do?"

"That's what I think! They did it then so they can do it now!"

"They get the heroes but what about us?", Butch asks.

"We protect the girls and stall the eyes. The eyes will try to stop them at all costs. Plus..."

"Plus?"

"Blossom will get in the way, I'll fight her!"

"So we have my stupid sister and giant eyes to worry about? That it?" Buttercup questions.

"Yes, those are the most dangerous."

"Alright, me and Bubbles will get the other people I guess, ugh"

"We can't do it alone!" I chime in.

"W..We need to go now! I swear the city is already being destroyed. I saw it, I promise!" Boomer whimpers.

"Should we get Professor? He may know something"

"Ugh! Fine! We should check to make sure he is alright anyway!" Buttercup answers.

"Be careful, he wasn't normal remember?" Brick mumbles.

"We are always careful!"

"Right..."

We all go to the opening of Him's area. I feel like I'm about to cry but hold it in. Bubbles isn't a crybaby! Everything will be ok! Him continues to pat on foundation as we all fall through. This is it.

Buttercup P.O.V.

We all see exactly what Boomer described. The place is dark with a tint of red. Brick said during our talk earlier that the eyes probably started in fear we were getting to close. This means we are right where we need to be! We all fly together, the boys around Bubbles and I for protection. Half way there, Brick breaks formation.

"Where are you going?!" Butch shouts.

"I'm going to find Blossom!" Brick zooms off without a second word.

"That idiot!" I say.

"He does whatever he wants!"

"Exactly!" I land outside the house to see Professor just leaving it. He looks calm, perhaps smiling even. When I think about how he got attacked but woke up like nothing happened, my whole body starts to tense up. Is this really our Professor?

"We were so worried about you!" Bubbles hugs him.

"I was worried about you two as well."

"You should come with us Professor! It's dangerous!"

"No thanks girls. I should stay with the city and help rescue people."

"Oh, that makes sense. You can't fly anyway."

"Butch can go with you." I exclaimed.

"What?" Butch stared at me.

"I can take care of myself. Don't worry!"

"No! Either you come with us or Butch goes with you."

"Very well, I will take Butch" His words were hurtful, I felt like they were stabbing me in the heart. Why isn't he freaking out like usual? Why...Why am I scared? As Butch slowly goes to follow Professor as he walks, I grab Butch's hand. This isn't right. I feel like this is goodbye. Not for Professor but for Butch.

"Professor?" I hesitate.

"Yes Buttercup?"

"Where is the real Professor?" It came out before I could think.

"What? I am...the real Professor?"

"Uh...Well...I don't..."

"What's wrong Buttercup?" Bubbles asks worriedly. Professor stares at me while I look up at him. My face probably was showing every emotion I was feeling. So much that he suddenly glared at me. He whisked his out in front of him in one swift movement. I looked over to see a blue slash coming at me. I felt pain on my right side, heard Bubbles' scream, and Butch's grunt. The Professor said, "Guess I didn't hide it well enough."
