Opening File: Elmer Sglue
Originally a curly haired student at Poky Oaks Kindergarten however because of his tendencies to eating glue, no kids were friends with him. Instead, they found it humorous, and not only made fun of him, but threw hard things at him. Due to being bullied so much, Elmer was left isolated and later accidently ate glue infected with a rare Dust that was colored toxic green. Once ingested the substance mutated him from the inside out transforming him into a monster made entirely of glue.
Elmer then disappeared and has been presumed dead. Authorities could only confirm he was near an accident where a truck carrying experimental Dust was attacked and had crashed. The search lasted for months before finally being called off due to the belief that Elmer was likely dead. It was only after he had suddenly reappeared as some sort of paste monster and attacked the Powerpuff Girls was he confirmed alive…
And very dangerous.

"An Archenemy is the main enemy of the protagonist. The reason why the particular villain stands out more than the rest varies; they may be the hero's strongest enemy, is the complete antithesis to the hero, have strong connections with their hero's past, pose the greatest threat, or simply may be the most recurring villain." TOM began, closing the character file. "You ever have trouble with someone back in school? Someone who just liked to make you miserable for no good reason at all and they just get worse as time went on. Or maybe they were someone who snapped under the bullying and did something bad. It's easy to make an enemy; it's harder to try changing them into a friend."

The City of Townsville.
Just another day almost over with the sun beginning to set and the city's three super heroes flying through the sky on their way home but taking the time to do one quick patrol.
"Man, am I glad school's over." Buttercup grumbled.
"It's not over yet, Buttercup. We have to go back tomorrow." Blossom pointed out, flying next to her sister.
Buttercup groaned. "Don't remind me. Having to go to bed early, then wake up early and come back to learn stuff I'm not even going to remember at the end of the day."
"You should at least try, Buttercup." Blossom said, trying to convince her sister of the importance of a good education.
Easier said than done.
"Um, girls?" Bubbles spoke up, pointing down. "Did the Professor plan on redecorating the house?"
Both sisters looked down and saw the Utonium home and it certainly did not look it was in the middle of being redecorated.
It looked wrecked.
"Professor!" The girls landed at the front door that had been torn off its hinges.
The interior was a mess with furniture torn apart, walls and windows cracked and everything was covered in a white slimy substance which Blossom took a close look at. "It's…Paste?"
"Paste?" Bubbles and Buttercup repeated.
"Yeah." Blossom wiped her hand. "Come on, we got to find-"
A scream from downstairs cut her off and the girls quickly raced down into the lab. "Professor?! Professor!"
The lab looked every bit as destroyed as the rest of the house did, only this time there was a large hole in the wall with a message.
REVENGE
"Revenge?" Bubbles wondered but her sisters paid the message no heed.
Instead they used their X-ray vision and spotted a trail of paste from the house and down the street. "There it is! Come on!"
The three girls shot out of the house, pursuing the trail from their house to an abandoned neighborhood that looked condemned. The trail stopped at a warehouse with the doors torn open. The girls entered the warehouse, looking around with their enhanced vision and spotted a large hulking figure with its back turned to them.
"Hey! Give back the Professor!" Buttercup shouted, lunging at the thing with a fist ready.
It turned around and stepped into the light, causing Buttercup to freeze and the three girls to stare in horror. The kidnapper was a large hulking monster, seemingly made entirely of paste and stuck in its chest was Professor Utonium. The father of the Powerpuff Girls was trapped inside the monster with only his eyes and nose visible whole his mouth was completely submerged in paste. The monster laughed, grinning sickly at the girls with a green glowing mouth and oddly glasses over its eyes.
"Professor!" The girls screamed.
Buttercup gritted her teeth and was the first to move, shooting towards the creature and tried to grab and pull the Professor out. The monster simply backhanded Buttercup, sending her crashing into the wall.
"Buttercup!" Her sisters cried out as she slid to the ground.
The monster laughed, stepping forward and actually spoke. "Not so much fun is it when you are the one being slapped around, huh?"
Blossom and Bubbles froze, looking back at the monster when they heard it speak. Its voice was deep and seemed to have to speak loudly through its pasty lips.
"Now you all…Suffer!" The monster's arms lashed out, his hands changing into giant maces that slammed into Blossom and Bubbles.
Both girls were sent flying through the air, crashing through the walls and hitting the next building. Buttercup stood up, rubbing her head and had watched the monster thrash her sisters. "All right, that's it!"
He flew to attack the monster from behind but it spun around, showing the professor's terrified face. Buttercup halted herself in mid-air, allowing the creature to backhand her and knock her to the ground.
"Ugh!" Buttercup groaned, lifting her head up to glare at the monster. "That's dirty! Come on and fight me like a real monster!"
"You'd know all about being a monster." The creature retorted.
Buttercup stood up, sporting only a few light bruises with her clothes slightly torn. "What's that supposed to mean?"
"Have you forgotten me already?" The paste monster growled. "Don't I look familiar to you?"
"Hey, I'd remember kicking up some monster's butt." Buttercup wiped her lip. "Especially one with a paste face like yours."
"How about…Paste-Eater?" The creature snarled.
That made Buttercup pause. "Paste…Eater…"
Eat this Paste-Eater!
Buttercup's eyes widened. "Elmer…"
"So, you do remember me." The monster, formerly known as Elmer Sglue marched forward. "I remember you too, Buttercup. I remember you, laughing and bullying me worse than all the other kids in our class, throwing paste right in my face because you thought it was funny."
"Y-y-you…I thought…" Buttercup was shaking a bit now. "I thought…You were dead."
"I did die!" Elmer roared, his form growing in size. "I died when you and those bullies turned me into this!"
"What?!" Buttercup took a step back. "I didn't turn you into this!"
"LIAR!" Elmer shouted, his mouth emitting a toxic green glow. "The truck carrying the Dust that turned me into this crashed because of you Powerpuff Girls! You didn't care enough to look at the damage you caused with your fighting crime!"
"What?" Buttercup took another step back.
"You smashed that giant flying Grimm down into the streets while I was going him that day…The day you hurled that paste into my face. It hit the street and knocked the truck carrying a special Dust over. It contaminated me and mutated the paste I ate…AND TURNED ME INTO THIS!" Elmer gestured to himself. "YOU ACT LIKE A HERO BUT YOU ARE JUST ANOTHER BULLY WHO DOES WHAT SHE LIKES AND GETS AWAY WITH BECAUSE YOU HAVE SUPER POWERS! BUT NOW I HAVE POWERS AND NOW I AM GOING TO MAKE YOU PAY FOR YOUR CRIMES!" Elmer roared in pure rage and charged forward.

After having lunch Danielle was given a tour of the Sanban compound Kuki along with Sayoko acting as their escort as they came upon a hallway with paintings of past members of the Sanban family.
"Wow." Danielle said, stopping in front of one particular painting, showing a woman who looked exactly like Genki and likely Kuki in a few years. Same black hair tied in a low pony tail, same eyes and face and was dressed like a priestess
"My ancestor. We don't know her name anymore." Kuki said, standing next to Danielle. "She was the one who founded the clan during the Time of Awakening, when the Grimm were awakened by the Emperor. She was a protector of the lands our home was built on. We were a clan of traders, doctors and later Hunters as time went on."
"Amazing…" Danielle remarked.
"My mother became a Huntress and my dad built our company up from a simple Dust trading company."
"And now he's Prime Minister while your mom runs the company." Danielle mused.
Kuki nodded with a smile. "And she is one of the best Huntresses in the world. She still trains to keep her skills sharp and likes to personally oversee the training in our family guard."
"Really? Is that she is doing right now?"
"Lady Sanban had to step out for a moment. I am sure she will be back." Sayoko spoke up. "In the meantime let us continue. I believe Danielle was interested in seeing the training yard while on our way to lunch."

"It seems the spirit took more of her memories than we anticipated sensei."
Splinter remained calm, sipping from his tea before placing the cup down and faced his visitor. "Hm…Is that so? How is young Danielle?"
"Holding up better than I could have hoped given the circumstance. She is getting along splendidly with my daughters, behaving extremely well and even helped the maids clean her room. She remembers enough about herself to know what little family she did have including how she might have lost contact with them and even her general likes and dislikes." Genki answered. "She has not talked about her spirit powers yet and I can't imagine her bringing it up unless somehow being coerced which I will not do nor will anyone else who knows. This procedure of removing memories, has there been any problems like this?"
Splinter stroked his fur. "None come to mind. All procedures are carefully monitored and the ones who summon the spirits ensure that they do not take more than asked."
"But it is possible." Genki pressed.
"Anything is possible. Perhaps Moloch's attack traumatized her enough that she forced herself to forget everything to protect herself. There is no way to know for sure for now, Genki-san. The only solution I see now is to simply be patient, give the girl time to recover." Splinter suggested. "Do not press her too hard and let her see if she can regain her memories on her own. From what you have described to me it seems all memories revolving around events that have been terrible such as Moloch's attack, her creator's betrayal and his attempt to murder her and perhaps even memories of her powers have been erased. That being said it is possible that these memories were taken by the spirit if they had been used by Moloch when he tortured her."
"Taking away memories, even traumatic ones sound good in theory but it was still a horrible decision, especially to a child." Genki stared down at her tea. "I feel guilty it had to be done and I feel guilty I cannot tell her the truth out of fear she might break down as she almost did before."
"One day she will be ready and on that day I believe she will understand." Splinter placed a hand on Genki's shoulder as she looked back up at him. "It was a difficult choice to be made and I will offer my apologies to her on that day. For now, let her be the child she never got to be when her 'father' created her. I understand there is still much to be done."
Genki nodded in agreement. "She will have to learn about this new world she is in as well as ensure all the proper information is handled to keep her safe from suspicion. Her name, birth records, education…And I thought I'd have trouble with just my daughters."
Splinter chuckled. "Try raising four sons. Perhaps we should trade and see who can hold up better."
Genki smiled a bit now. "I think I'll stick with the girls."
Both of them chuckled at the little banter while enjoying their tea.

"Hey ugly!"
Hoss Delgado, having just beaten down the local police officers, turned and spotted a girl emerging from the nearby building. "Just what are you doing?"
"Beat it, kid. Your babysitter's probably missing you." Delgado said, turning back to the officers. "Now about the freaks in your town."
June picked up a rock. "Don't turn your back on me."
She threw it, utilizing a minimum amount of strength but it was still enough to actually hurt when it collided with Delgado's head. The spectral exterminator stumbled, grasping his head as he turned and glared at the annoying brat that had just given him a headache.
"Did I get your attention now?" June asked, placing her left hand on her hip.
"You really have no clue who you are messing with, kid." Hoss held up his right hand/chainsaw in a crossbow. "Get lost while you can."
"Ooooo…A chainsaw for a hand. What cheap horror movie did you get that idea from?" June remarked.
Hoss scoffed, turning to face June. "And what are you? A Huntress wannabee?"
"You wish." June cracked her knuckles.
Hoss growled, cracking his left hand. "Fine, you want to play little girl? Welcome to the big boy playground."
He marched forward towards June, rearing back his fist and then sent straight at her face. June, to the immense shock of the exterminator, not only caught with fist with complete ease she slugged him in the torso, following with an uppercut to the chin with such strength Hoss was instantly knocked down.
"He had no Aura…" June whispered, having just noticed that he hadn't used an Aura shield to protect himself from her. "What kind of nut job is this guy?"
Hoss grunted, rubbing his chin as he staggered to his feet and cast a furious glare on June. "Okay, so you either are a Huntress in training or a troll in disguise."
"Funny. You look like a troll's ugly cousin." June replied, holding up both hands and clenching them into fists. "Now get out of here while I am still feeling nice."
"Nice, huh?" Hoss held up his chainsaw and pulled the cord, revving up his favorite weapon. "Well, let's see how you feel after this."
He lunged at her and she quickly fell back as he slashed at her. Hoss growled as he tried to cut her but June was took quick and she waited until they had moved the fight far enough to make sure no one else got hurt. Once they were far enough she finally started to hit back, punching Hoss in the torso and face before launching him into the air with a kick. He fell back down, landing outside of town and creating a small crater on impact.
'Not again…' Hoss gritted his teeth as he managed to stand back up, remembering how the fight between him and Scotty Blake had ended.
With him landing in the middle of the woods.
"Not this time." Hoss growled as June landed a few feet away. "Not this time!"
"Had enough?" June asked, watching as Hoss stood up.
The exterminator responded with a loud roar and charged at her again. The two engaged in battle again with June relying on her speed and agility to dodge the maniac's chainsaw and deliver her own attacks when she saw opening. Hoss on the other hand responded with aggressive but lethal attacks, mainly slashing with his chainsaw arm but added punches from his other hand and a few kicks as well. The two fought through the woods but despite June having the powers of the Te Xuan Ze with her Hoss was able to keep up and he was able to dodge and counter most of her strikes.
'It's just like fighting those two robed guys again. I was careless last time but I am not making the same mistake again.' June thought as she ducked under another slash and responded with a two punch combo that knocked Hoss back. 'He might not have Aura but he's no pushover.'
Hoss in the meantime held up his chainsaw and to June's surprise it slid into his arm and left an open hold pointed straight at her. "Grenade launcher!"
"Grenade?!" June exclaimed and jumped as he fired.
A few grenades fired from the cannon as June frantically ran, dodging the incoming projectiles and the explosions they caused.
Hoss laughed as he switched to a weapon resembling a taser. "Comes as a real shock to you, doesn't it?"
He fired a blast of pure electricity that managed to hit June, sending her down onto the ground as she cried out. Her Aura flashed leaf green as it protected her from the worst of the electricity but she still felt it. "I don't know what hurts more…This or that lousy pun you just used."
Hoss fired another blast but this time June rolled out of the way. "Not impressed. Maybe this will ipress you."
He switched weapons again, revealing a glowing beam sword resembling the ones used by a certain Gundam.
"A beam sword?!" June gasped as she jumped to her feet. "Okay, who gives away all these weapons to an ape's ugly uncle like you?"
"Someone who knows I don't take no for an answer." Hoss answered before charging again, readying to use his Beam Sword to slash June to bits.
Only just as he did a sphere suddenly appeared around him, lifting him off the ground. "What the Glob?!"
"That'll be enough of that, sonny!"
Both June and Hoss turned and spotted Old Man McGucket emerge from the bushes, pointing a hand at Hoss. "Don't you know not to wake an old man? Ha-ha-ha!"
"Say what?" June asked, looking at the old man and then the sphere. "You're a Huntsman, aren't you?"
"Nope!" McGucket laughed, twirling his cane in one hand. "Never been one! Just a crazy old man trying to take a nap! Ha-ha!"
"You'll be getting a nap when I am through with you!" Hoss growled, slashing at the sphere with his Beam Sword in an attempt to break free.
"Be gone with you, sonny!" McGucket threw his hand up and the sphere was launched up into the air like a rocket with Hoss still inside.
"I WILL GET YOU FOR THIS!" Hoss shouted as the sphere disappeared, leaving him still flying off into the sunset sky.
"And crazy-ape is going-going-GONE!" McGucket laughed as he did a little weird dance.
"Get my butt kicked by cult weirdoes, fight off a man-ape with a chainsaw but doesn't wear a hockey mask and saved by weird old guy." June whispered, listing off the crazy things that have happened to her since she arrived in Gravity Falls. "Pretty mild actually."
McGucket stopped dancing and pointed at June. "Hey, want to hear a story?"
"Ah…Sorry, it's not my bed time." June answered, trying not to sound rude to the old man who just saved her life.
"It's a really good story, filled with drama, adventure, romance, tragedy and it's all true!" McGucket insisted.
"Sorry, I got to get back to my family. Thanks for saving my life though." June hastily waved and she started to walk away.
"At least hear the title!" McGucket pleaded.
June sighed. "All right. What's the name of the story?"
"The Last Eye."
