The Powerpuff Girls in: Radical Dimension
By: DJ Rodriguez
(Author's Notes: Hey everyone! How are you all doing? I hope that all of you are doing well today.
Before I say or do anything else, I wish to give honor and praise to the Lord. God, thank you for helping me all this time! I still have a ways to go before becoming a better servant and soldier for you, but I will keep going forward with you. Thank you for separating me from a world that has gone topsy-turvey in a bad way, and I ask that you safeguard me, my family, my friends and those that still stand strong with you. Jesus, thank you for the gift of imagination, writing and also in following you as your Truth has helped me to fight free from lies and illusions of the world and the Enemy!
There is still much for me to do, much projects to finish up. I will continue to do my best, and also still to be of use to the Lord in any way/shape/form possible!
I want to advertise this for all of you to see. My new friend Author GojiraRWBYSW18 has finished a couple of Godzilla stories I believe that you may find entertaining in a positive way. His stories are Super Godzilla Bowl & RWBY Watch the Heisei Godzilla Series, two stories that are worth reading and reviewing.
I have recently found some of my old Godzilla videos on VHS, so I am glad! Yes, I still have a working VHS/DVD player and both it and the videos are still in good condition. So perhaps in time, I will make another Disney/Toho movie night! But for now, need to focus on my projects and stories here.
Again, I am severely disappointed with the media and companies like Disney, Netflix, Paramount, Nickelodeon and more that have joined up on the mainstream bandwagon. I believe I will stick/keep to the shows I watched in the past, as they have that special substance/essence & Truth that sadly is being replaced by this… junk that is now filling fast. To see where I mean and stand, look to my Profile.
Sigh… I still long for the day when my Disney/Toho works will be more then just fanfiction. I still dream of them becoming movies, made my way instead of like Disney is doing things now. I dream of them becoming so popular and loved like the classics of Disney, and also that they bring the company back to the light instead of where they are now.
I also hope that my Star Vs. and my Danny Phantom x Dragonball crossover story hits big as well.
Finally, I wish to do this for my Tia Pamela Espurova-Allen. She is working with police and other official groups to locate and bring home a missing girl that is part of a family she works with & has befriended. Her name is Lina Khil, a little girl that was taken on December 20th, 2021. The search is still on for her, but so far… no luck.
Her information is this: She was three years old, hair brown, eyes brown, race Afghan, weight 55 lbs. & height 4'0. If any can help to locate and find her, please do so and notify the proper authorities. Hoping and praying still that she is found alive & returned to her family. I believe they had made a special about her on the news that can give more information concerning her.
This story will focus on character & plot growth and development in many areas. It will take time, planning, collaboration and more. But I believe it will be worth it in the long-run.
We cannot please everyone, nor do we ever wish to do so. I believe in the words of my pastor Rick Godwin from Summit Christian Center at San Antonio and it is this: If you try to please everyone, you lose yourself entirely. So while others may not be pleased at this, it is what it is. Our aim is not to please all, but to write a worthwhile story that follows Truth. No more, no less.
There will be NO kind of characters or reference to slash or femme-slash of any kind. There will also be no trans characters or notions in this story series, nor in any of my other stories. See my Profile bio to see where I firmly stand in and at. In this I am VERY serious about!
And that is my stance on this story, and all others I have made and will make in the future. And again, this story will feature Christian elements and faith! And that I am not sorry at all for!
Also, will be giving certain characters OC names from the website 20000-NAMES, as I have done in my previous stories. Each name is linked to a different nation, and has a different meaning. To see what they mean, go to website to look it up. Dreams Come True has put her own self in as an OC named Maria Neverdomski.

Now, on with the triple crossover!)
~Intro, insert Journey~
The camera is entirely black for a few moments, than turns completely white. But almost immediately following it, an elongated oval shape appears. Its shape looks like an egg that has been turned on its side. After a moment, someone appears to drop down within the shape. It is a young woman, one with brown hair, fair white skin, blue eyes and red lipstick on her lips.
It turns out to be Maria Neverdomski, who is in her human form. And to her right are the words in dark-pink HANNA-BARBERA. Maria smiles, than a golden ring of energy appears on her left side and starts to go over her. The scene freezes at the moment where the golden ring is exactly at the halfway point, in the middle of Maria's face.
It shows half of her face; on the left is her halfa-form, which shows golden hair, bronze-colored skin, her eye is now green with a beauty mark near it, her lips now having blue lipstick coloring & she seems to be wearing bands in her hair & on her neck that shows the colors of blue, red and green.
The logo stays in place for a few moments, than it fades as the scenery changes to show the city of Townsville. The narrator is not speaking, as he is not part of the intro. Everything seems to be peaceful… until the silence is shattered by the sound of a police alarm! The camera zooms towards the city, many buildings passing by in a blur until it stops in front of a bank. The scene now shows the entrance to the bank, where police were coming in on the scene in their vehicles. When they arrived, they got out of their police cars and took positions behind it & drawing out their guns.
The camera shows the door to the establishment, which are soon blown open with some smoke coming out from them. And a close up is done as some red latex boots come walking out. When they stop, the camera slowly pans upward to show that the boots are thigh-high types that belong to only one villainess. The camera pans upward to show the alluring curves wrapped in red and black outfit, and soon comes to the smirking face of the one called Sedusa! The camera zooms outward to showcase the entire seductive frame of the villainess, who is holding a bag full of money in her left hand, while her right hand is covered in a black gauntlet that has a red gemstone on the back of it.
The scene shows Sedusa striking a sensual pose, which makes the male officers grin dumbly and lower their weapons. Hearts shoot out of their beings as they are entranced completely by Sedusa's form. However, the female officers are not affected and very much looked more ticked off now as they fire their guns at her! Sedusa smirk increases as she lifts the gauntlet in front of her, the camera showing the red gemstone glowing red. Rings of magnetic power appear in front of Sedusa, stopping the bullets in their tracks. The metal projectiles float in midair a few feet from her, causing the female officer to cease fire and look in shock at the action.
The villainess than cackles and sends the projectiles back at the law officers with twice the speed! The policewomen duck down behind their cars just in time, some pulling their still-stricken male partners to the ground so that they are not hit. This seems to snap them out of their lust-induced trance.
Sedusa cackles as she seems to be the one in control… but then flashes of pink, blue and green appear in front of her. She turns her head, and her smirk turns into a snarl as the camera does a round-about turn to show that floating a small distance from her were… the superheroines- the Powerpuff Girls! They are now ten years of age, showing that indeed they do & will age like normal humans. On the left is Bubbles, in the middle is Blossom and on the right is Buttercup. The trio are wearing their signature clothing that has not changed, but the wear is more suited for their pre-teen looks, as they look seriously at Sedusa.
The camera changes to show the villainess letting out a shriek and raising her gauntlet up, firing now red laser energy beams at them that erupt from the palm of the gauntlet. The girls scatter, zipping here and there as their trademark colors appear from their wake. This keeps up for a few moments, than the camera zooms out to show the whole of Townsville like before… but this time a golden comet streaks in, heading towards the city!
It soon changes back to the fight, where Sedusa is being able to hold off the PPG with her newly acquired item. However, the camera shows her facing the 4th wall and her eyes widen. The camera changes to show the golden comet that was streaking for her… and the comet shifted/changed to show that it was the halfa heroine Maria Angel, partner to hero Danny Phantom from Amity Park!
The camera shows the determined look on Maria's face as she flew in towards Sedusa, veering left and right to avoid the laser blasts until she was close to her quarry. The camera showed her connecting with a rising uppercut punch that sent the villainess reeling upwards! The camera than showed the PPG coming in from all sides; Bubbles took the bag of money and tossed it down to one of the policewomen below, who caught it. Next, it showed Blossom using her Freeze Breath on the gauntlet, which turned into ice and then shattered into pieces, revealing the now free hand of Sedusa. And finally, Buttercup came in with a punch to the villainess face that sent her crashing back down to the pavement!
The camera turned to show an aerial view of Sedusa, who was knocked down and out with a bruise on her chin and cheek.
The camera went back to ground level to see the PPG coming back to the ground, followed by Maria who congratulated the three on a job well done. Two policewomen came to the crater of Sedusa, bringing her up and cuffing her before taking her away. It seems that all is well… until a swirling white portal appears behind the superheroines!
The camera shows their faces of surprise, shock and fear. Before they could do anything, the portal sucks them in and quickly collapses on itself and closes.
The scene changes to showcase a tunnel of swirling white and blue energy, the PPG and Maria flipping through the area. They are soon enveloped in white energy until only their outlines show… and it starts to change as well!
The scene changes again, this time in front of what appears to be a large building. The portal opens up, and it seemingly spits out the four superheroines. However… they have changed! They are now anthro cats, and seeing themselves as such causes looks of panic and shock to come on their faces.
They are now in Megakat City!
The camera shows the changed superheroines looking to their right, and see the villains/villainesses of the SWAT Kats! The camera shifts to showcase the various bad guys and girls from left to right; the Metallikats- Mac and Molly Mange, Chopshop, Dr. Viper, Dark Kat with his Creepling minions, Ci-Kat-A, Turmoil, Hard Dive and Pastmaster.
The camera changes back to show the ladies very much confused and scared, then they hear something and turn around to look to their left. The camera shows many Enforcer sedans, Peace-Keeper tanks, Enforcer helicopters coming in & honing in on them! The sedan doors opened up, many male and female officers wearing Enforcer uniforms filing out with laser rifles at the ready.
After showcasing the arrival of the Enforcers, a special kind of sedan different from the rest comes forth. Getting out of the car was Commander Ulysses Feral, and by his side was his loyal officer Sgt. Talon. Coming out from the other side was Lt. Commander Steel.
The camera showed Feral with his swagger stick in hand, raising it up in the air and soon bringing it down and pointing at the PPG and Maria!
The camera changed back to show the PPG and Maria looking very much scared at this particular moment… than something happened that caused them to look up!
The camera changed to an aerial view, showing all of Megakat City… and a familiar black jet streaking in the sky! It was the TurboKat aircraft, the signature vehicle utilized by the vigilante heroes- the SWAT Kats! The camera showed the jet streaking over the city, going to where the action was down below. The canopy blasted open, and two objects ejected from it. The jet than did a U-turn, now on autopilot as it seemed to disappear over the horizon.
The two beings coming down in their specially designed ejector seats were Razor and T-Bone, the duo showing themselves to the camera as they aimed for Maria and the PPG!
When they landed, they looked at the ladies and smiled, also doing a small wave to the superheroines. The PPG look surprised, but Maria looks very much scared and it shows. The SWAT Kats faces show worry on why Maria is like that. The camera shows Buttercup, Blossom and Bubbles turning to their friend and giving her a hug. It seems that it was what was needed, as Maria seems to relax and hug them back.
The camera changes to go up in the air, giving a bird's eye view as it shows the SWAT Kats, the PPG and Maria in the middle between the Enforcers and the various bad guys and girls of the SWAT Kat world. A few moments later, a blue helicopter appears and the camera shows it as the sliding door opens to reveal three female anthro cats.
The one with the wireless microphone in hand is Ann Gora, the lovely reporter from Kat's Eye News. Above her in the middle is the beautiful blonde Deputy Mayor known as Callie Briggs, who looks curiously at the situation. And above her with laser pistol in hand was Lt. Felina Feral, niece to Commander Feral. She too has a look of curiosity, but also determined to see which side to favor before making said decision.
The camera stays on them for a while as they look down at the action, than the camera turns to show the SWAT Kats, Maria and the PPG look towards the camera in battle poses. They soon charge at the camera screen, where the action freezes to show to all their charging battle poses.
The camera zooms awhile a little, where the characters are surrounded by an entirely white backdrop. Above them appear the words in red THE POWERPUFF GIRLS, and below them were the words in black RADICAL DIMENSION.
~End theme song~
The date was now Sunday March 12th 1995, the sun was rising over the horizon as the golden rays touched down on the land & upon the fair metropolis known as Megakat City. The time was 7:30 a.m., the city slowly coming to life though many kat citizens decided to sleep in a bit longer on account it was Sunday & also officially the start of Spring Break. The rays of the light started to spread, gradually blanketing the city in its warmth and shine.
The rays soon came upon the Megakat Salvage Yard, the place where most all kinds of junk from the city came to be to either get recycled or compacted into small square cubes. Within the junkyard that was a two-story garage building that was surrounded by various discarded items, and while the structure itself looked to have seen better days, it was outfitted with a decent-sized patio with a lounge chair, wide umbrella, a TV antenna & a makeshift satellite dish.
On the side were words in large bold letters that spelled out BODY SHOP, and above one of the garage door openings was a sign that read BODY SHOP 2- ALL REPAIRS.
The building belonged to Jake and Chance, operated independently from the owners of the yard. And right now… it had some new occupants inside of it!
Inside the room that belonged to Chance were three kittens, all snuggled up together on the large King-sized bed underneath a thick blue blanket. It was Blossom, Buttercup and Bubbles! The rays of the sun managed to filter through the window, the golden light hitting the blonde furred kitten in the face. The warmth & brightness of the sun, despite having her eyes closed, gradually woke the human-turned-anthro up.
Bubbles slowly sat up on the bed, yawning in a manner that was quite cute & adorable. She rubbed her eyes, getting the sleep dust out from them. The little one called out in a soft tone, "Ahhhh… another morning. And that strange dream where we were anthro cats, that was…".
Her words died when she finally opened her eyes… and saw that the room she was in was not her own! She looked around, then looked down at her hands which felt funny to her. When she saw the fur on her hands and arms, her eyes snapped open and examined herself more. At seeing the tail behind her and grabbing/feeling it… she know started to see that what happened yesterday was no dream at all!
While panic was welling up inside of her, years of training by her sisters helped her to maintain control. Bubbles turned to her right to see Buttercup, the kitten gently shaking her awake and whispering urgently, "Buttercup! Buttercup! You and Blossom need to wake up!".
Buttercup only groaned, turning over on her side with her face turning away from her sibling. She called out in a low sleepy tone, "Bubbles, keep it down. It's too early to wake up…".
The blonde cutie continued to shake her and whispered still, "Buttercup, you have to wake up! Don't make me smack you with my tail!".
This got the black-haired kitten awake a bit more, but it was more of the words that Bubbles spoke. She replied back in a confused tone as she slowly opened her eyes, "Bubbles, what the heck do you mean by smacking me with your… tail…".
Her remaining words ceased when her vision got back into focus, gradually going from blurry to clear & she was quite surprised to see Bubbles in her anthro form. Buttercup was about to scream/yell, but Bubbles quickly covered her mouth while shaking her head rapidly. When the black-furred kitten nodded her head in a gesture to say that she wasn't going to scream, Bubbles slowly uncovered her mouth.
The tomboy of the trio whispered in stunned shock, "Whoa! Bubbles! Then… that… that means what happened yesterday was real!". She looked at herself, seeing the black fur on her being & also the tail that zipped out from behind her as it was reacting to her current emotions.
Bubbles nodded her head, then gestured to Blossom. Buttercup nodded her head, and shook the leader of the team up. The redhead sat slowly up, rubbing the dust from her eyes and speaking in a tired tone, "Ugh… what time is it? Is Mom making breakfast now?". It appears that she believed that she was back home, and that Alice was about to make them food.
Buttercup hissed in an urgent tone, "Blossom, you need to wake up now! We have a serious situation here!".
The redhead opened her eyes… and like her siblings, was shocked on seeing them! And when she looked down at herself and also her tail, she quickly realized that what occurred yesterday was real and not a dream!
Bubbles looked to her eldest sibling and asked in a worried tone, "Blossom, how did we get here? Where is here? And where is Maria?!". They did note that they still had the clothes they had on, which was a relief to them.
Blossom answered to her, "Okay, first thing to do is not panic! Let's look around the room to see what we can find to make of the situation.". The two sisters nodded their heads, utilizing their training to not panic like they would have some years earlier. The trio got out of the large bed, now using their observation skills.
Buttercup saw their packs at the foot of the bed, going to them and inspecting them inside and out. Thankfully all of their possessions were back in their respective bags, nothing missing at all.
The blonde-furred sibling looked about the room to see posters, and on one of the posters was what appeared to be a light-brown kat with no clothes on, and was making an exaggerated cartoonish gesture with his body becoming segmented and a look of surprise/horror on his face as in his right hand was a large red bomb. In front of him, on the left side of the poster was a bombshell of a she-kat with brown hair, light-cream fur and a figure that would give even Sara Bellum a run for her money! On the top of the poster were the words in big, bold orange letters SCAREDY CAT CARTOONS.
Bubbles giggled a little at the poster, then looked to see the others as they were apparently all Scaredy Kat cartoons. She said to herself in an amused tone, "Hehehehe… I think the person who owns this room is a kid at heart.". She looked to the King-sized bed and added that it was a BIG kid at heart.
Blossom looked to see a TV at the corner, but it looked ancient to her. It would appear that Blossom had never a television that was made back in the 1990s, or at least that far back. What was in front of her was a thirteen-inch Sony Trinitron set, with a VHS player on top of it & also a Super Nintendo video game console set below it. It had one-controller, and a couple of SNES cartridges set up near it.
She said to herself, "Hmmm… it seems that the owner of this room likes video games. But don't recognize the game console or the games itself…".
Buttercup was now checking the books on the shelves, seeing that a majority of them were comic books. She took one of them down from the shelf that she could reach, seeing that the cover showcased a male kat in superhero wear that was similar to the one worn by kooky superhero Major Glory. And in his arms was a lovely she-kat, who was clinging to the superhero as they flew over a city.
She chuckled before putting the comic book back in place, then took another one that showed a large military jet with four anthro kats in military uniforms. Two male kats, two she-kats & above them were the words in bold red letters KAT KOMMANDOS. Chuckling once more, Buttercup said to herself, "Man, what kind of person would buy stuff like this?". She put it back, then saw that it was not just comic books that lined the shelves but other books as well. Ones that were actually different; ones that showed a history of pilots, aviation information and more.
This told her that whoever lived in the room was a pilot, or at least trying to be one.
While the PPG were exploring the room, in another room down the hall, a certain someone was waking up too. Maria yawned as the rays of the sun hit her face through the window, the young lady groaning as she rose up from the bed. She was in the room of Jake Clawson, best friend to Chance. She rubbed the sleep dust from her eyes and moaned out, "Mmmm… what a night… and what a weird dream I had.".
She rubbed her face one more time… until she felt fur on her face, and also that her nose felt a bit different. She looked at her hands, her vision gradually going from blurry to clear… and she quickly got freaked out at seeing the fur on her body & also the tail that was now swishing about on her side as it reacted to her emotion. But like with the PPG, she forced herself to calm down even though it was difficult.
Maria whispered to herself, "Oh dear God… it wasn't a dream! I'm… I'm an anthro cat, and I'm in another universe!". She remembered the events of what happened yesterday, and also what happened last night when she fell asleep in the scrapyard.
The young she-kat slowly got out of bed, taking stock of the room around her. It looked to be small, but well-kept and cozy. There were some potted plants near the window that led to the patio, and also seemed to be organized. When she got to her feet, she noticed that she still had her clothes on which was a relief to her. The one who had taken her and respected her and kept her dignity, but she was still wary as many a scenario came up to her head… and they were not so welcoming.
She spotted her backpack on the ground near the door, going to it and checking it thoroughly. Thankfully, it was her backpack and the contents within were still there. Maria was wondering if her charges were here… and safe. Worry started to build back up, but Maria calmed herself by turning to the Queen-sized bed and kneeling down next to it.
Propping her elbows up on the mattress, she got in Prayer-form and whispered her prayer, "God, please let Blossom and the others be okay. And please let our hosts mean us no harm. Thank God for looking after me and my charges. In your name Jesus, amen.".
She stayed in that pose for some time, talking to the Lord more before rising back to her feet. She looked around the room, reasoning with herself that learning more about her host could be beneficial to her. Maria saw that there was no TV in the room, but shelves of books that had various mechanical subjects. It also had books concerning gardening and taking care of plants. She also saw a small workbench nearby that had tools on it, along with some parts that looked to be incomplete.
Maria said to herself, "It's safe to say that my hose seems to be an intellectual of sort. And… heh, it seems that he has a crush on someone.". She looked over to see a nightstand near the bed, and on it was a lamp & a framed picture of Callie with words beneath her form that showed in dark-blue ink: TO JAKE, FROM CALLIE.
The young she-kat felt like the characters from her old computer games, where she had to point & click at items for the main characters to interact and check out. She inspected the tools, but decided to not take them as her host might find it missing & might take it offensive.
She opened one of the books that was labeled How To Properly Care for Plants by Clarissa Clawston, finding the subjects within semi-fascinating. Maria had a green thumb herself, helping Alice Utonium in the backyard with her own miniature garden that consisted of certain herbs and spices. While interesting, it would be of little use to her.
Miss Neverdomski went outside to check the patio, finding the chairs and other stuff out there amusing but nothing of value. She went back inside, not paying attention to the other patio door that had her charges.
After ten minutes and back inside Jake's room, she decided to explore. Opening the door slowly, she tentatively stepped out from the area and went into the hallway. Little did she realize that the PPG had done the exact same thing, exiting from Chance's room as there was not a thing of value they could take. When they closed the doors at the same time, the noise got their attention… causing them to look directly at the source, and finding each other!
The halfa heroine had a watery look in her eyes and smile on her face, her charges having the same expression as they beheld the other. The group of girls gave small squees of delight before they rushed and hugged each other in the middle of the hallway they were in, tears of joy running down their faces as they were joyful to the max that they were together & in one piece! They had to keep their cries of joy down as they were still in unknown territory.
After a few moments of hugging, Maria released the girls and looked them over. She asked softly in an urgent tone, "Girls, I am so glad to see you! Are you okay? Anything hurt or missing?".
Blossom smiled and answered, "We're glad to see you too! And yes, we're okay! And all of our stuff is in that Chance's guy room.".
Buttercup added in, "I think this guy Chance is an adult, but his room looks like a kid lives in there with the comics and video games in it.". That made the halfa heroine raise an eyebrow and a small smirk to form on her face as she found it amusing.
Blossom finished it up, "He also seems to be a pilot, given how some of the books he had focused on aviation. Either that or he aspires to be a pilot in the future.".
Maria gave what she had about the room she was in, its occupant and also what she found about him. She then stated, "I think that we need to have a look around. I know that this is a stranger's house and that we should leave, but… something tells me to look more around this place. Maybe we can find something useful that will help us in this new world until we figure out a way to get back home.".
The PPG kittens looked to one another, then to their babysitter/friend/sister. After a moment of internal debate, they all came to the same conclusion as Blossom replied, "Well, if you think so, then we all agree. Besides, I think for the moment, it's safer in here then out there.". Bubbles and Buttercup nodded their heads at this.
The halfa-heroine nodded her head as she saw that Blossom had a good point there. So she stood back up, automatically assuming command as she and the small kittens followed her.
The group looked over the corridor they were in, and also some rooms which were just supply closets that had basic cleaning utensils. When they were done, Maria led them downstairs to the Ground-level. The four were soon in a living room, a small counter desk in the back with a lobby for guests & also an open door that showed the garage/workshop.
Miss Neverdomski whispered to the girls, "Okay everyone, spread out and see what you can find. Blossom, you check the garage with me. Bubbles, you and Buttercup search the rest of this place.". The kittens nodded their heads, the tall she-kat and the redheaded kitten going to the garage.
Bubbles and Buttercup looked through the living room first, checking through a worn out couch and an old TV set that was propped on a worn-out stand. The two kittens were perplexed, as they had never seen a set like that before. They also saw a dartboard set above the couch, a refrigerator and a calendar to the left of the dartboard that had a picture of a fine white-furred she-kat in a black one-piece swimsuit. Thankfully the pin-up girl on the calendar was tastefully done and posed, not raunchy or overdone.
Buttercup found a blue telephone on a counter underneath a cabinet, and besides the telephone was a framed picture that showed Jake and Chance in front of the garage. She called Bubbles over, the duo looking at the object. The blonde-haired heroine spoke up, "It seems these two are best friends, or perhaps they are brothers?". Her sister replied that it was a possibility, putting the picture back where they found it.
Meanwhile, Blossom and Maria were searching through the garages. They found a dark pink-colored tow truck with a black-and-white striped front bumper & white painting on the front and window area. Maria whispered to Blossom, "See what you can with your X-Ray vision, please.".
The leader of the PPG obliged, narrowing her eyes which glowed a soft white color. She then started to look up and down the vehicle, a look of surprise on her face coming up before she deactivated her ability. Blossom looked to her guardian and spoke in a surprised tone, "The tow truck looks okay but… well, underneath the hood and other areas is different! I count a turbo booster of some kind and also some rockets in the back. And also some tech that looks like it shouldn't even be on a tow truck at all.".
Now this surprised the halfa heroine, wondering on why these characters Chance and Jake would trick out a mere tow truck like so. She was half-tempted to look through it by utilizing her phasing ability, but she was concerned that they could still be under any kind of surveillance even though there was no visible cameras. To her, better safe than sorry.
The duo looked around the garage more, spotting work benches with various tools and such about, many of them covered in grease or oil. After a few minutes, they concluded that nothing out of the ordinary other than the tow truck was in the place.
They left the garage, going back towards the small living room towards Bubbles and Buttercup. Maria inquired, "So, did you two find anything that we can use?".
Both shook their heads with Bubbles answering, "No, not really. We found a picture of Chance and Jake, and I think they are either best friends or brothers as they seem to be close.".
Buttercup added in, "Yeah, and not much else here. This place they have doesn't seem to be much. Maybe if we find a map or something here, then…". She was walking and talking, soon losing her foot on the rug. The black-haired superheroine tripped and fell down, the others showing concern for the young one.
Said kitten was about to scream in frustration… when she realized something. She looked at the spot where she tripped and noticed that an odd bulge of sort was there. It was small and subtle, but it was still unusual. Buttercup got back up, going to the spot where she tripped and knelt down to examine it more. The others saw this, and also saw that something was amiss.
Bubbles felt the small shape and whispered, "Hmmm… this almost feels like a door… no, like a latch.".
Blossom and Maria got to work in moving the rug out of the way, rolling it up until what they found was a latch. Buttercup pulled it open, surprised to see a secret door & also how large the secret door really was when pulled open! The four looked down the tunnel-like entrance, peering into the darkness. The kittens looked to Maria, who nodded her head in a silent statement to go down below.
She went first, using the ladder that was created on the side. When she started to go down, Maria used her left hand to glow a soft golden color. She had trained to utilize some of her spirit powers while in her mortal form, such as using her spirit energy to create a glow-stick like light in her hands and feet. This gave off the necessary light that made it to see better. Blossom followed after her, then Bubbles and finally with Buttercup.
The four descended downwards, sticking close to Maria as they could. They soon hit the ground, soft echoes coming through the place as it indicated to them that they were in another place… something big enough to create the echo. Bubbles clung to her guardian and whispered in a scared tone, "Maria, where are we?".
She answered, "I don't know… even with my light, it's a bit hard to see.".
Buttercup called out, "Hold on, let me try something out here…". She focused sight, her pupils expanded and it was at this point that her vision became sharper. She was channeling her new feline abilities, feeling the instinct there and now utilizing it like so. Buttercup looked left and right, until she saw something a few feet ahead of her. Walking slowly over to it, she soon reached it and jumped a little to activate it. As it turned out, what she found was a light switch and soon the place was flooded with bright lights!
Buttercup let out a yelp as she held her eyes, the girls going to her and asking if she was okay. The tomboy of the group answered in a strained tone, "Yeah, yeah! I'm fine, just… got caught off guard by the light. Give me some time to adjust…".
Maria realized that Buttercup's new ability had the advantages of night-vision goggles, but also the weaknesses of it. Sudden flashes of light could blind those using night-vision, as even a candle flame would momentarily blind the user. And with lights coming on within like so, Buttercup got moderately blasted with something that was akin to looking directly at the sun.
What she said did some to pass as Buttercup's vision did get back to normal, although it took a couple of blinks to get back up to regular vision.
The PPG and Maria had found what appeared to be a secret hanger of sort! What they did not know was that this place long existed before Jake and Chance knew of it. In the 1950s, the major powers on Earth were in a global nuclear race and the citizens got increasingly scared on the idea of nuclear global war. The area back then was a military installation, and had an underground bunker that was designed to withstand a nuclear attack. However, the scare had gradually ceased and the installation soon lost its finances as the military started to be more concentrated in the city.
In 1979, it was officially closed down and demolished so that it could be changed into a salvage yard. Burke and Murry's parents to put in charge of the place, and soon their sons inherited the place. However, neither of them knew of the secret bunker that was still there.
Jake and Chance found it by accident when they started to move into the building that they had managed to buy with the very last of their savings. And when they found it… they decided to utilize it as their new base of operations!
The four girls walked down the stairs that was near them, Buttercup fortunate that the light switch was there as another step would have caused her to trip and stumble. While she could fly to avoid the drop, she would have to do it consciously and the sudden drop would have broken her focus & thus she would have taken a bit of a nasty tumble.
When they walked down the stairs… they were amazed to see a large aircraft in the middle of the room, followed by all kinds of gadgets on the ceiling & also rocket munitions nearby! The halfa heroine and the PPG kittens were now greeted by the sight of the magnificent machine known as the TurboKat, the pride and joy of the SWAT Kats! Chance considered the machine a girl, as he believed girls were dependable and beautiful like so.
Blossom whistled and spoke softly in awe, "Whoa… now this is so cool! An actual secret place in a salvage yard!". The leader of the siblings had been to many secret hideouts due in part to tracking villains/villainesses, but she honestly did not expect to find a hanger underneath something so unassuming.
Bubbles looked around at the gadgets and gizmos around, and also carefully examining the missiles that were about. But she noticed that many of them looked to be of different size and form, some having their tops open with some unusual objects within it. She said to herself, "Huh, wonder what these things are? They look so different from regular missiles…".
What she was seeing before her were the Cookie-Cutter Missile, Match-Head Missile, Banshee Missile and Slicer Missile. All inventions of Jake a.k.a. Razor!
Buttercup looked to see a workout area on the far side of the wall, where there was some weight sets, a TV set in the corner, and also some treadmills. She also saw a table that had some rubble on it, which were remnants of the cinderblocks that Jake & Chance broke to tests their strength. The black-haired kitten spoke in an amused tone, "Looks like whoever lives here likes to work out military style.".
Meanwhile, Maria was keeping her distance from the aircraft as she went down the area opposite of Buttercup. She felt something was off… her instincts telling her to get out of there. The heroine whispered to herself, "I don't know why but… something about this place is pushing in some bad vibes. Almost like bad… memories.".
She soon came to two locker, both open and showing some uniforms that were hung up in them with helmets on top of them on a shelf. Maria seeing them had her heart beating rapidly, the feeling she had earlier quickly expanding within her being exponentially.
It was seeing the uniforms that her heart started to beat rapidly, her breathing becoming increasingly erratic. She stood up and wobbled a little from the lockers, then her eyes caught the sight of what appeared to be cat skull marks on the wall. This caused her to sweat now, her mind going into overdrive as pictures flashed in her mind.
And it was finished when she saw a picture in one of the lockers of two anthro kats in black and blue uniforms… the designs of the outfits and the physical form of the kats releasing the last lock of a floodgate. The floodgate held back certain memories that had been locked away for some time… really bad memories.
Images of two kats that were identical to the SWAT Kats, but darker coloring and also more menacing uniforms with helmets having dull-green skulls etched on them…
Menacing laughter coming from the pair, sneers upon their faces while their eyes glistened in malicious delight…
Gloved claws coming out, slashing at the air while female screams rent the air…
And the evil version of the kats departed… showing the face of a familiar goth that Maria knew too well…
Violet eyes came forth along, looking board while a mouth with dark-purple lipstick was completely neutral in a line… then the empty violet eyes soon had a gleam of malevolence within them, the mouth turning into a wicked grin of psychotic savagery followed by a laugh that would chill anyone to the bone…
While this was happening in her head, Maria was hyper-ventilating as the bad memories were coming in like a rushing tidal wave! She was having a panic attack, and apparently a bad one at that. She said to herself, "No… No… please… not them… anything but them!".
Maria staggered away from the lockers, her body screaming at her now to take her charges and run! But unfortunately… something occurred right at this particular moment.
The PPG had decided to check the aircraft, their curiosity getting the better of them as they floated towards the cockpit area to see the insides. However… what they found was two sleeping kats, dressed in working garage clothes. Bubbles whispered to her sisters, "Do you think they are Chance and Jake?".
Buttercup replied, "I think so. But, why are they sleeping here instead of upstairs?".
Blossom answered, "I think they slept here so that we could sleep comfortable upstairs. Come on, let's tell Maria and…".
Unfortunately for them, it was at this time the heroic duo was waking up. The lights made them stir from their slumber, the harsh light penetrating through the glass canopy. Chance yawned as he stretched, as much as he could within the confines of his seat area at least. He spoke in a tired tone, "Hey Jake, turn off the lights will you?".
The lanky but brilliant inventor answered in a similar tone, "Sure buddy, I'll… wait? The lights?". He soon remembered that he turned them off, and the only way to turn them back on… was with the switch outside of the plane. The duo opened their eyes, got their vision back into focus… and said eyeballs widened at seeing the PPG floating above the canopy!
The two let out shouts of surprise, the PPG also letting our surprised yells of their own as they backed away quick! The canopy to the cockpit opened up, and the duo leapt out of their seats thanks to trained reaction time. Jake called up to them, "What the-?! You… You kittens can fly?! But wait, how did you get down here?!".
Chance heard some rapid breathing, turning around to see Maria… but soon had a mixture of stunned/confusion/concern on his face as he saw that she was hyperventilating and having a look of utter most fear on her face. He called out in concern, "Uhhh, miss… is something…?".
His words died when a scream of primal fear erupted from Maria's throat, the vibrations intense and strong that it made everyone cover their ears! Some time ago, Maria managed to learn the powerful Ghostly Wail from her beau Danny. While his was powerful, she discovered she could do it more frequently and also that it didn't drain her like it did to him.
What she was doing was not the potent attack, but it was amplified due to her super-powered biology and primal fear coursing through her being. It caused the PPG and the mechanics to cover their ears from the intense vibrations.
Maria called out, "BUTTERCUP, BLOSSOM, BUBBLES! RUN FOR IT NOW!". She in turn rushed back to the stairs, quickly climbing up the ladder.
The PPG kittens had NEVER seen their babysitter/friend get so freaked out like that. They had seen her lose her cool in battle and in tense situations… but this was on a whole new level for them, as she was acting in pure fear & the famous flight or fight instincts kicking into overtime within her.
Bubbles spoke in a mixture of amazement and concern tone, "Whoa… I have never seen Maria act like that before…".
Blossom called out to her siblings in an authorative tone, "We'll find out what's wrong later! For now, let's go!". The kittens followed her, flying fast with their trademark streaks behind them.
Meanwhile, Jake and Chance were stunned on what just happened now. The muscled kat exclaimed in a surprised tone, "Did you see that Jake?! Those… Those kittens could fly! Just like in my comic books!".
His friend and fellow crime fighter answered back, "I saw! Man, I forgot to turn on the security system for the hanger last night! What a bone-head move!". The two had just gotten back late last night from a job towing a car for a client back to his home, soon finding the four she-kats outside. They were wondering on what they were even doing in the salvage yard to begin with, but their consciences would not allow them to sleep outside in the cool night.
So they had taken them back to their garage/home, set them up in their respective rooms & had decided to sleep in the TurboKat. It was so late that Razor had forgotten to activate the security system for the hanger. And also they were so tired, they slept in their working clothes.
Chance looked to him and stated firmly, "We can worry about that later! Right now, we need to get them! They've seen us, and we don't really know who or what they are! They might cause us some serious trouble if we don't catch them!".
Jake realized that he had a point. They didn't know if the she-kats were good citizens… or perhaps criminals like professional thieves and such. And now that they had seen them, most likely they had deduced who they are and now had their secret identities! And seeing that they had some kind of power, it made the situation more tense & delicate at the same time.
The slim kat put a hand on the shoulder of his friend to calm him down and stated, "Affirmative, but we should analyze the situation first before…". However, Chance rushed towards his locket, pulling out his trusty Glovatrix up and rushed towards another secret entrance into the hanger. Sighing, the other member of the SWAT Kats soon followed in hopes of diffusing the situation peacefully.
Meanwhile, Maria and her charges zoomed quickly out of the garage/house with amazing speed. They ran into the salvage yard, going deep within it and soon locating a suitable pile of scrap to hide behind. They had left in such a hurry that they forgot their backpacks which were still in the rooms of their hosts.
As they hid, Blossom and the others looked to see Maria shivering now with fright as her eyes were wide & her breathing still rather rapid. Buttercup spoke, "Maria, what happened? Why did you…?". Her words were cut off as powerful sobs coming from their friend/babysitter/sister, the halfa heroine crying loudly with her body wracked in shudders/shakes.
Again, they were very much perplexed as they had never seen their friend this emotionally shook up before. They had seen her in some emotional situations, but this one really took the cake.
Blossom and the little kittens quickly went to her in a group hug, family instincts kicking up to try and soothe/comfort the young she-kat. Usually, it would be Maria that would hug them when they needed a strong rock to cling to in emotional/turbulent storms. Now it seemed that the roles were reversed in this particular case.
It took some time, but the healing power of the hug managed to penetrate through the primal shell that was around her mind. Maria's sobs quieted, but did not stop. Bubbles reached into her pocket and pulled out some napkins that she managed to take from the home before leaving, as she had a feeling that Maria would be needing them.
When the young she-kat accepted the napkins, drying her eyes and blowing her nose, Buttercup spoke in a concerned tone, "Maria, what happened? I mean… you've never done something like this before.".
Blossom added in with the same tone as her sister, "Yeah. I mean, we've seen you upset before but… the way you screamed after seeing the big one, it was like you saw demons or something like that.".
Maria managed to get her shakes under control, though they did not completely go away. She looked to her charges, gathering her courage and answering in a whisper, "You're not far off from them being demons, Blossom…".
The halfa heroine continued on, "I have seen those kats before, back during my teenage days. They… They were monsters. The things they did to me… oooh… left a lot of mental, emotional and… physical scars.". She spoke the words a hushed tone that was filled with pain and fear, the kind that usually would belong to victims of very deep attacks.
The tone and words shook the PPG kittens to their core, as they had never seen Maria act like so. Said she-kat put a hand to her stomach area, where underneath her clothing were four claw marks. Healed over time yes, but quite thin and long that almost ran over her entire midriff. The claw marks was something that she had managed to hide from her charges, but it was a reminder of real monsters that made the ones back in Townsville look like jokes.
Before anything could be done… the sound of expelling gas could be heard, which always came after something was fired from a weapon! Maria was soon entangled in strong wiring, a metallic bolas snare if you would! It wrapped around her midsection, and another at her legs that bound her tightly! She let out a yell of surprise and fear, said latter emotion filling her back up quickly!
Blossom and the others looked to see where the bolas came from, and they found themselves snared in one of their own! They were bound and tussled up together, landing near their friend who was on the verge of another panic attack.
Emerging from the side was Chance, and landing beside him was Jake. The duo had gone for the classic High Road, Low Road maneuver. Since he was lighter and more agile, Jake took the high road by climbing up one of the scrap piles and hopping across from pile to pile. It gave him the high ground advantage, and also better aerial view. Chance followed on the ground, keeping up with his friend.
The lanky kat spotted their quarry, gesturing to Chance with hand signals instead of shouting out as it could give away their position. Once they were in the proper position and angles… Jake gave the order to fire! Chance managed to lasso Maria, using two shots to tie her up. Jake lined up his own, and got the PPG kittens with one shot!
The two mechanics walked towards their downed quarry, who were now struggling within the bonds wildly. Normally, they would be able to break free with their enhanced strength. But for Maria, she could not focus properly due to the intense fear coursing through her. And the PPG could not use their full strength due to being bound tightly together.
Chance called out in a civil tone, "Okay now, I think we all need to head back into the garage for a long chat. And hopefully to clear some air here.".
Both kats saw the fear in Maria's eyes, which had them concerned for her and wondering why she was freaking out like so. Carefully, Chance picked up a struggling Maria and hefted her on his right shoulder. Jake picked up the PPG, who were struggling but not so violently like Maria was. The two went back to the garage building, Jake keeping the sign on the door showing the words CLOSED & pressing a button inside that closed the two garage doors.
~Back in the other universe~
At Townsville, there was much activity within the Utonium residence. David, Alice, Danny and the Squirrel family were down in the lab as all of them were going through some boxes. They were looking for devices that would enable them to locate and lock onto particles that would suggest portal activity. However… while the Professor was brilliant in many aspects, it seemed that he had a tendency to not label things before storing them. So thus, the entire crew was looking for anything that might be of use.
After about ten minutes, amazingly all of them exclaimed loudly, "Hey! I found something!". Alice, Danny, David and Bullet lifted up handheld devices, each one different in design. The group came together to show their finds to all so that David could identify them since he did create them.
He looked to one Alice had, which looked like a modified Nintendo Game Boy and stated, "That's the Time Locator, as it is tuned to locate and identify rips in time itself. I made that after some of our adventures that involved time travel and such.". His wife was impressed that her beau managed to make such a device, and it showed on her face.
Mr. Utonium looked to the device in Danny's hands, which looked like a modified Game Boy Advanced and said, "Ah, that's the Space Finder. It locates anything that makes tears through space. And also, I have come to learn that time & space can be intertwined, but also separated.".
Danny inquired in a curious tone, "Really?". David nodded, saying that a time portal would take someone through time but land directly in the spot they were in. A space tear would allow someone to travel vast distances instantly, but time stayed the same.
The scientist then checked the one Bullet held up, which looked like a modified Wii U control pad. David spoke to the squirrel mother and her little ones, "Ah, now this will be useful! My Dimension/Universal Tuner! This one locates and ID's any tears that could lead to different dimensions and universes.".
Little Matilda spoke up in her animal language, and the wristwatch translator did its duty but this time spoke in the voice of Linda Larkin who played the voice of Princess Jasmine from the 1992 Disney animated movie Aladdin! It translated, "{There is a difference between the two?}.
The human father of the PPG chuckled good-naturedly and answered, "Indeed there is, little lady. Think of a notebook, and the blue lines on the paper. The blue lines are barriers/boundaries that separate lines from each other, and it's the same principle with dimensions. Each dimension is different, but still resides on the same paper. In the same universe. But when it comes to universes, think of it as traveling from the forest to a jungle. Everything is different; new rules, new laws and so much more. That is what separates a universe from a dimension.".
This impressed the group, as mechanics involving otherworldly stuff would normally go over their heads but David Utonium made it possible to understand the concepts.
He looked to everyone and stated firmly, "Okay, we have what we need at least to identify what kind of portal the girls were sucked into. Once we manage to truly know what we are dealing with, we can go from there. Now then, let's go! Miłosz, you lead the way since you know the exact location. We'll follow.".
The small flying squirrel nodded his head, and the animal family quickly vacated the lab with the humans plus halfa following them. When they got outside, the powered-up animals zoomed back towards the forest! Danny followed in the sky, David and Alice taking the family vehicle as it left the driveway & followed the flying beings swiftly!
~In another realm~
While this was going on in the mortal realm, something was occurring in another… a realm that was separate from the others… a land that was the stuff of nightmares that would leave in the dust ANY kind of horror scene or work made by mortal hands. It was a land of fire and brimstone, a place where many Lost Souls went to upon their deaths… the land known universally as Hell.
A portal had opened forth within the fiery caverns of the underworld, and landing through was Cholera a.k.a. Cuddle Bunny. However… the animal soon glowed red and started to transform into her real self! Her pink coat changed to a purple color, her paws and feet sprouting three dark-purple colored claws that looked to slice through anything, a large bronze unicorn horn on her forehead & her ears curling to be like a style similar to a certain anime girl who was linked to the Moon!
This was Cholera's alternate form… a demonic beast! If on where to think on it, this would be the inner, true self of Cuddle Bunny.
She hops quickly among the rocky crags and slops, soaking in the tormented cries of the souls that had been judged unworthy and banished to Hell. She had a sinister smirk on her face as she enjoyed the sounds, especially more of her fellow demons & devils cackling loudly as they enjoyed bringing the torment.
Cholera soon arrived in a pocket-space dimension within the realm, entering an abode that looked like a twisted version of the PPG's home. She went deeper into the living room, where sitting in front of the fireplace were her companions… the rest of the Fluffy Bunch, but in their alternate demonic forms!
Puppy Wuppy coat was a dark gray color, his paws having red claws that would be able to cut through even the thickest of hides. He had bat-like wings on his side with light red membranes, two elongated canines that gave him the appearance of a vampire, purple eyes & two long bronze bull horns on his head! Strangely, two dark black lines ran down his cranium. One went down past his eyes and halfway to the nose area, while the other encircled around his head.
He had a collar on like Chloera, and this one had the words SYPHILLUS.
Fluffy Kitten had a dark orange coat, pale green eyes, red claws that were very sharp, a smile that showed teeth that would be able to slice through bone like a hyena, two curved gray ram horns on her head & a tail that was elongated with a crimson arrow-shaped tip. Around her neck was a collar that had the words SHIGELLA.
Shigella looked at her fellow companion and stated in a mocking tone, "Well, well. Here comes our wayward friend back from a trip topside! Find anything amusing up there?".
Cholera glared at her leader but decided to not reply with sarcasm. She answered back, "As a matter of fact, I did find something! And I think it's information that our Master would love to hear!".
Syphillus barked out a laugh and called out, "Oh really? What kind of news do you have that could possibly be suitable for Him?".
Before she could retort… a soul-chilling laugh filled the area as light but spine-tingling words came forth, "YES, CHOLERA. WHAT IS IT THAT YOU HAVE FOR ME THAT I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR? HMMM?".
The eyes of the demon beasts widened, their whole forms shaking as the words & laugh filled the room. The fireplace in front of them bursts into flames that reach the high ceiling… and appearing out from the flames in dramatic fashion was one of the most potent villains that the PPG had ever faced. The being known only as Him.
The crossdressing devil was not the pinnacle of evil, but rather servant to the true Master of Evil & Father of Lies & Illusions. Him was more or less a Major General, commanding division-sized units that was between 10,000 to 16,000 minions. The truly top rank out of all of them was Lucifer, the Fallen Angel who went by many other names. The one that was cast out from Heaven after leading a rebellion against God Himself.
Him stood looming over the minions he had managed to ensnare some time ago; turning the mortal animals into potent spying demons, all the power in exchange for their very souls. His eyes focused on Cholera and stated, "WELL, WHAT DO YOU HAVE FOR ME LITTLE BUNNY?".
Said rabbit-demon beast remembered what she had come back to do, looking to her boss and reporting on what she had heard at the Utonium residence. When the tall, crab-clawed minion of the lower levels heard it all… his eyes took on a wicked gleam and he laughed in that very high-pitched one that sent shivers all around & the flames that he emerged from flare up dramatically!
He exclaimed with delight, "HAHAHAHAHAHA! SO, THE ANNOYING POWERPUFF GIRLS AND THEIR COMPANION MARIA ARE NOW OUT OF THE PICTURE? MY, MY… THIS IS GOOD NEWS INDEED! WELL DONE CHOLERA!". The transformed being smiled in pride while he two companions glared at her before looking back to their master.
Him was in thought for a moment, then an idea soon appeared in his head. He turned to the monitor that was above the fireplace, making a motion with his hands and expanding it dramatically. He sent a mental command, and the monitor turned on but with multiple split-screens on.
The commanding devil looked to his three minions and declared, "NOW MY LITTLE ONES, GO TO THE MORTAL WORLD AND KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THE UTONIUMS AND THE SITUATION. HEHEHEHE… I HAVE FRIENDS TO GATHER TOGETHER… AND PLANS TO RUIN THE VERY CITY OF TOWNSVILLE TO ITS VERY FOUNDATIONS! HEHEHEHEHE…". He stated the last part concerning the demise of the place that was home to his mortal enemies with a deep, masculine-like voice that made the three animals gulp in absolute fear and terror.
While their master's high-pitched voice was creepy… his deep, booming voice spelled certain doom for his targets. The trio saluted, then exited the pocket-dimension quickly.
When he was alone, Him took out a list from his pocket and checked on certain names. He said to himself, "LET ME SEE HERE… SEDUSA… OH YES, OF COURSE HER. THE AMEOBA BOYS… UGH, STILL AROUND EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE AS DUMB AS THEY COME. LET ME SEE… THE GANGREEN GANG… BILLY IS NO LONGER WITH THEM, BUT THEY HAVE THEIR USES. FUZZY LUMPKINS… EASILY MANIPULATED, SO OF COURSE. THE ROWDYRUFF BOYS… OH YES, I BELIEVE THEY WILL LOVE THE DESTRUCTION!".
He started to name various villains/villainesses that the PPG had encountered, even some from the distant past that were still alive but not much effective as they used to be. Him also planned to reanimate some of those that had met their demise at the hands of the PPG such as Abracadver the zombie magician, the Boogie Man who tried to turn the planet into one giant disco party room, and more.
After checking the list, he noticed that one name was not highlighted like the others. The other names were in red to indicate that they were still alive and also in Townsville… but those in blue were not in the vicinity, and the name that was showing up in blue was Mojo Jojo.
Him said to himself, "HMMM… HE IS NOT IN TOWNSVILLE. I WONDER WHERE HE IS. I CANNOT START A MEETING WITHOUT THE ONE WHO CREATED THE POWERPUFF GIRLS.".
It had been quite a day when Him and the other villains had made the discovery that it was Mojo JoJo who had unintentionally made the PPG. The various bad guys and girls beat on the enhanced/mutated monkey so badly, he was in the hospital for six months' time! And even after he had fully recovered, his fellow villains/villainesses gave him wide berth as they were still annoyed by his past actions.
For Him, he consider it ironic as the monkey's intelligence had rose due to the same mishap that created the PPG. And yet… for some reason he felt that it was more than an accident concerning the powered-up girls, but he could not prove it.
After some time, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "OH WELL, I CAN WAIT UNTIL HE COMES BACK TO THE TOWN. IN THE MEANTIME, LET ME CHECK ON THE ONES ON THE LIST.". He sent another mental command, and the screens came to life to show the images of the ones that were on the list.
His laughter soon echoed through his pocket-dimension.
~Back in the SK-World~
Maria Neverdomski and the PPG kittens were not having a good morning right now. The two were in the living room, propped up on a couch and still tied up. In front of them were the two mechanics, their Glovatrix's still on their persons but they were not hostile. No… that honor belonged to Maria, who just glared hatefully at them.
After some moments, it was Jake who started things off by asking them, "Okay, how about we exchange some questions. We ask you something, and you answer. You ask us something, we'll answer. Is that fair?". Blossom thought for a moment, then nodded her head. However, Maria just turned her head away with a HMPH sound.
Chance and Jake were a bit puzzled on the she-kat's behavior, but they hoped to learn why soon. The muscled kat spoke first, "Okay then, first question goes to us. Now… who or what are you? I mean, I have seen many strange things in this city, but I have not seen kats that look like you. Nor any that can fly like that.".
Blossom answered his question, "We're the Powerpuff Girls, and… well, we aren't exactly from this place.".
Jake and Chance had puzzled expressions on their faces, as they had never heard of them at all. The lanky kat inquired, "Wait a minute! Powerpuff Girls? I mean seriously, that is what you are?".
Buttercup glared at him, as there was some critics back home who still thought their names were unusual. And the words they had… well, some of them went from mild to downright insulting. She exclaimed, "Hey! It's a cool name, alright?! And by the way, we answered your question so you answer ours!".
Chance smirked and said, "Heh, I like you kid. You sound tough, and you're right. So, ask away.".
It was Bubbles who asked the question, "Who are you two? Judging from the secret hanger, jet and gadgets around here, you are not just mere mechanics.". While Bubbles was not a genius per say, her observation skills were actually quite top notch!
The duo looked at each other, then back to the others with surprise on their faces. Chance replied in a stunned tone, "Wait! You're telling me that you never heard of the TurboKat? I mean, everyone in the city knows about her and us! We're the SWAT Kats!".
This got blank looks from the PPG kittens, and only a hateful stare from the halfa heroine. The kittens spoke as one in a confused tone, "Who?". The looks they gave them stunned the young kats good, especially since they believed themselves to be household names.
Jake spoke this time around, "Umm, Chance… I think that we may have outside visitors here if they don't know anything about us.".
Blossom remarked, "You got that right! We're not just from this world, but from another universe!". Now this got the heroes of MegaKat City very much surprised, and it showed on their faces with disbelief mixed into it.
The muscled kat exclaimed, "No way! You four are from another universe?!".
Maria hissed at Chance angrily, her tail all fluffed up and showing signs of extreme aggression. This made the young kat back up a bit in surprise as the halfa heroine hissed angrily, "Yeah, and it's all your fault that we even got stuck here! Ugh! Grah!". She tried to break free, but the ropes were very tight.
Jake and Chance were surprised by the level of aggression, then looked to the PPG who were more concerned about their friend. The lanky kat inquired, "I think it's time that we start things at the beginning. Please… can you tell us how you got here?".
Blossom started to tell the tale on how they had managed to end up in their world, landing at the Puma-Dyne Advanced Technology Research Facility due to the object known as the Dimensionator and also meeting with the kats there… including Deputy Mayor Callie Briggs. Buttercup and Bubbles filled in any spot with their own observations.
When it was all said and done, the vigilantes were quite surprised to hear that the facility was tampering with inter-dimensional/universal items. And also wondering how they even came up with such a thing. Jake spoke up in an awed tone, "So… at least this explains how you got here.".
Chance added in an apologetic tone, "Yeah. Sorry about that. Puma-Dyne has been known to make all kinds of inventions, but we never really thought they do something like this.".
Buttercup then asked the question, "So… what will happen now?". They still had not prodded them for how they had powers, and were hoping that the duo would not pry.
Before Chance or Jake could answer, Maria spat out with anger and hatred in her tone, "Now we get out of here and find our way back home so we don't have to be around these two monsters!". She struggled more violently, putting more strength into her bonds.
The muscle-bound mechanic got a frown on his face as he exclaimed, "Hey sister, just calm down for a moment! We…". He was cut off as she hissed loudly at him, and actually spat in his direction! He got surprised and backed away, the projectile landing on the ground.
The halfa heroine called out in anger, "Get away from me, you… you… you monster! I know what you two did to me long ago, so keep away unless you want me to tear you to bits!".
Jake replied back over her hissing, "Know us? Lady, how is that you even know us?! We don't even know your name or who you are!". This got the attention of the PPG, who remembered that Maria had just told them about the duo. But if he was telling the truth…
Blossom called out to him, "Wait, wait! You… You seriously don't know her?". Jake and Chance replied in a negative, and the redhead knew they were telling the truth. Blossom had been taking some lessons on when to spot a truthful being from a lying one, and she could tell from the tone and posture that Jake and Chance really had no idea who Maria was. Which meant that something was amiss…
Then Maria started to change; her snarling/spitting gradually turned to sobbing, and her thrashing changing to shaking from the intensity of her crying. This surprised the group, and knew that something was seriously wrong. Jake and Chance looked to the PPG, then to Maria who was burying her face into the cushions while crying.
After some time, Chance spoke up, "I think that we have some more things to discuss…".
~In another realm~
While this was happening in both universes, another was watching everything with keen interest. While this particular realm existed in the dimension known as the Ghost Zone… it went also by the name of Purgatory! This particular place is where spirits who had unfinished business to settle in the mortal world, or were too afraid to go to Judgement in Heaven, resided in. They had made their homes in the space between spaces, between the supernatural and mortal realms.
But this one… this existed in another dimension altogether. It was the home of Clockwork, the Spirit of Time itself. Clockwork's home was immune to any time alterations and paradoxes, and also anything that existed outside of time was in his care.
Right now, Clockwork was seeing what was happening in the SWAT Kats universe. He saw everything that was occurring, and also now seeing Maria becoming a wreck due to bad memories from her past.
He sighed and said to himself, "Be strong Maria. Everything is going according to plans of the Lord, and you will have to face your nightmares in order to return back home. And also to lay them to rest for good.".
The adventure continues!
~Outro; credits & song Somewhere Out There~
The music plays as the screen is black, then shows a scene where a bedroom was at. The credits rolled upwards from the right side of the screen, going from the bottom all the way to the top. It was a simple bedroom with a dresser and old-school TV set. On the bed, covered in a large blanket, are Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup. They are in their anthro forms, snuggled together cutely as they are asleep in their new pajamas. The camera focuses on them for some moments, than slowly pans to the right to show someone looking out a window. Said window showed that it was nighttime, the stars shining brightly in the sky.
The being sitting near the window on a stool was Maria in her anthro kat form, also in some new pajamas as well. As the song lyrics came up, the camera slowly transitioned to show the face of Maria. Her eyes showed longing and sadness, looking through the window. The scene changed so that everyone could see what she was seeing, which was MegaKat City. The lights of the city were aglow, showing much activity there. The city was shown for several moments, than panned upwards towards the starry sky.
The camera changed to show Maria's face, a lone tear coming down her face.
The camera zoomed in slowly on her face for a few moments, than changed immediately to show the sky full of stars and a full moon.
After some moments, the camera switched and lowered down to show the house of the PPG. Three people could be seen from the middle window of the room on the top floor. The camera switched to show a close-up of the window, and it showed an older Danny Fenton on the left, Mrs. Alice Keane-Utonium in the middle and Mr. David Utonium on the right.
The camera showed David hugging Alice close, both showing extreme concern on their faces. Alice held her husband close, a tear slipping from their eyes as they showed they missed their daughters very much.
The camera than panned towards Danny, who was also looking worried as he looked at the moon. The camera soon changed to show said celestial object, and zooming into towards the silver orb. Soon, the face of Maria appeared in it but in her human form.
It soon changed back to show Danny, the scene now becoming wavy to indicate that something was taking place in an imagination realm. The scene becomes entirely black, than it shows Danny and Maria hugging each other lovingly and tightly. The scene stays like this for a few moments, than both images fade but the scene is still entirely black.
Appearing in a fade-in was Maria, who was still in her anthro form. She was still looking down, until someone appeared to wrap their arms around her. The camera showed that it was Danny, but in an anthro form as well! He had black fur, a white t-shirt on, blue jeans on & also a long black tail. He looked to be done in the body form of Jake. His tail wrapped and intertwined around Maria's own tail.
The two hugged one another lovingly, than something happened. The image appeared to shrink in size slightly, and appearing underneath it on the right-hand corner was Maria. It seemed that this was a night-dream sequence of sort. As Anthro-Maria appeared, so did Danny across from her. The image of him and Maria in her human form appeared above him, the two images directly opposite of one another.
The four images were shown like a formation of a square, in the middle as the moon as the credits rolled on by and finished up along with the song.
~End Outro~
(Author's Notes: And… cut! That is it for this chapter! Whew… this was a bit of a long one, but well worth it!
Before I say or do anything else, I want to give praise and honor to the Lord. God, thank you again for helping me with this chapter! It is thanks to you & also the script given to me by my friend Dreams that this was made into a reality. Thank you so much for looking after me, my family and my friends! I hope to be of more service to you Jesus, and I hope & pray to see good news come back into the world and people soon.
So Maria and the PPG are reunited, but it seems that the halfa heroine has mistaken Jake and Chance for someone else. And just to state here, what happened to Maria in the past will be revealed in a prequel that has been thought of by Dreams. So once this is done, it will be worked on. But it maybe awhile.
I really hope you enjoyed this chapter, and I hope you all enjoy my other works as well! And again, remember to look to Dreams's artwork that is at DeviantArt! They are worth seeing, and also worth leaving a positive review on!
Now for the questions! Ahem…
If you woke up with either the PPG or Maria, what would you do? And what would your thoughts be on the surroundings?
If you went downstairs, what would your thoughts be on the office and living area? And what would you think if you were with Blossom and Maria in the garage & heard Blossom's statement concerning the truck?
If you could, what device would you have made to be either a time/space/dimensional/universal locater-indentifier?
Using your imagination, how would you describe Hm's pocket dimension abode?
And finally, what would you do if you had to be a peace negotiator of sort between the PPG/Maria and the SWAT Kats?
R&R, no flames, enjoy and leave LONG reviews!)
