Chapter 9C

The Two Hims

Red Him: (The silhouette stepped foward. And to ever one's surprise, it was Red Him.) It's been three years.

Blossom: No. That's impossible!!

Red Him: Your eyes do not decieve you. I, truely, have returned and I will have my revenge on the three of you (refering to the girls) and your allies.

Blue Him: Of course, you will need help. (Blue Him appears.)

Buttercup: What the...

Butch: Who the hell are you?

Blue Him: I am Blue Him. The Him you know is Red Him.

Buttercup: That shouldn't be a problem.

Butch: I got the ice cream. (He gets a box of ice cream. Buttercup and Butch fire it at Blue Him and the ice cream hits.)

Blue Him: NOO!! IT BURNS!! (It seems to be working.)

Buttercup and Butch: Yeah!!

Blue Him: (serious) TAKE THIS!! (Fires a beam)

Butch: What? (Buttercup and Butch are hit and are incased in ice.)

Blue Him: You actually thought I was weak to the cold? I'm not weak to ice, you wankers!

Bubbles: Buttercup!! Butch!!

Dexter: They'll be okay. (The guys notices that Dexter is trying to get back up.)

Red Him: You really are a glutton for punishment, aren't you.

Dexter: I'm tired of you.

Blue Him: If it weren't for me, Red would still be in space.

Dexter: So, you reversed the path that Red Him took back to Earth to land in the same spot with he was launched off.

Blue Him: You are clever, aren't you. (Dexter tried to get up but he had to have his sword to keep balance.)

Red Him: Very noble. Too bad you can't back up those words.

Blue Him: I beileve it is about time we left? The others are waiting.

Blossom: Others?

Blue Him: The Brotherhood of Malice, our group. (A portal opens.)

Red Him: See you later, for now girls.

Both Hims enter the portal and the portal closes. Strangely, the fire returned to normal. In fact, with Red Him's leaving the fire stopped all together. Dexter was able to cast magic to remove Buttercup and Butch from the ice. Buttercup and Butch were shivering like crazy from the cold. Bubbles and Boomer helped take care of the two.

Buttercup: Th-Th-That was c-c-c-c-cold.

Butch: N-N-N-No more of th-th-th-that.

Blossom: Who are the Brotherhood of Mailce, Dexter?

Dexter: It is not going to be easy on you or any of the elite.

Brick: Just say it.

Dexter: The Brotherhood of Malice are a group made up of the most villianous people and entities found from around the globe. Red Him and Blue Him are two of the members. I'm going to tell you about the third one.

Brick: WHAT!?

Blossom: HOW MANY HIMS ARE THERE!?

Dexter: Three.

Blossom: This is not good at all now that the Hims are back.

The elite would return to New Townsville with knowledge that they wish they did not know but it had to be known. It was uneasy for them knowing things are going to be a lot more difficult to handle.

Chapter 9B

Inside the Fire

It was by the fire that has become a fire storm by the time the elite got there. The flames were going mad. It did not seem that the flames would stop. The animals had to escape the fire; the girls helped the animals. Dexter had to get Fuzzy out of there. The boys though they had to literally "fight" the fire and got minor burns. Dexter sent two of the firemen in there to get a view on what the inside is like.

The two firemen went inside. The area was torched in the center of the area was a white caccoon. The caccoon was moving around so the stupid firemen decided to break it open. They toke their axes and started to chop the thing open. While they were chopping the caccoon, the caccoon does not move. The firemen were almost there when the caccoon begins to crack more and more.The firemen step back and are frieghtened; the caccoon breaks open and a lot of dark energy is released. The firemen scream and run out.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, on the mountain nearby, Blue Him was waiting for his time on the lava plain that was created three years ago by Red Him's attempt to destroy New Townsville using lava as a weapon. The feature, literally, was called 'The Dark Side' of the mountain. Then, he heard the screams from the firemen.

Blue Him: It's about time... Time for me to make my move. (Then, he moves toward the forest fire.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Firemen: AHH!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!

Dexter: For what? The fire isn't supposed to scare you.

Firemen: THERE'S A MONSTER IN THERE!!

Dexter: Yeah, a monster fire.

Fireman 1: We're serious.

Fireman 2: There is a monster in there.

Then, all of a sudden the fire opened itself up so someone can walk in. Practically, everyone saw this including the other elite. This was a very suspicous because fire does not behave like what they are seeing.

Dexter: Something is not right about this.

Blossom: You can say that again.

Brick: Yeah.

Dexter: I'll go in and check on what is going on.

Bubbles: Okay. But be careful.

Dexter cautiously enter the tunnel to the other end. And what he saw on the other side surprised him to an extreme.

Dexter: WHAT THE HELL!!

The fire closed up on Dexter so he can't get out. He was filled with fear but knew he had to fight this menace that was controlling the fire. On the outside the fire, then, changed shape and formed a pair of large arms with pincers on the ends as hands. Then, the hands literally began to attack the firemen and their equipment. The elite combated sometimes they would touch the fire with their fists or feet and get burned.

Buttercup: I know about fighting fires but this is ridiculous. (Moments passed by with conflict on both the outside and inside. Thanks to the girls and boys, the hands, I mean claws, were stopped.) Now that, that's taken care of...

Butch: Hey, Blossom. How do we get inside the fire?

Blossom: ...

Buttercup: Come on, Blossom. We're wasting time.

Blossom: Wait, we don't know what's inside. (Then, something flew out of the fire and flames. It was Dexter. He was bruised, he and his clothes were burned, and you can tell he toke a heavy beating. He was struggling to stay conscious, because if he doesn't he might be down and out.) Dexter!

Dexter: (trying to speak) Blossom, I know who is behind this. It's... (passes out)

Blossom: Dexter, WHO IS IT?? (A silhouette appeared from the flames. Of someone whom loads of people feared.)

???: So girls, we meet again...

Chapter 9A

Beginning of the Inferno

Momoko had accepted the fact that Princess Melony would be her daugther. Haruto (Brick) also accepted that fact. But neither of them would beileve that Haruto would be her father. But that is for another tale.

It was nighttime that same night, the girls and boys were in bed. Everyone except Dexter was up. He was up out of concern for Princess Melony and how he was going to fulfill his promise. All was peaceful in New Townsville that night. Then, Dexter saw a light. He noticed the light was like a shooting star. But later he noticed that it was not a shooting star. It was a meteor that then landed in the middle of the forest outside the city limits. It caused a tremor that could be felt in the surrounding areas and it obviously woke up almost everyone else. Princess Melony got up but she thought the tremor was just her imagination. The professor came out in his pajamas.

Professor: What's going on? You're not making a mess are you?

Dexter: I'm not making a mess. I just saw a meteor fall from the sky and crash into the nearby forest. I think I should check it out.

Professor: It is nighttime. You should get some sleep.

Dexter: But I need to check this out.

Professor: Okay. Do what you want.

Dexter: That's not good. Look. (He and the professor saw smoke coming from the nearby forest.)

Meanwhile, Alex [Chapter 1 & 2] was awakened by the tremors. He looked outside in his pajamas on the second floor of his house which resided on a country ranch. You would see the tallest building in New Townsville from there. He saw the animals staring to go loopy. This woke up the other members of the household. He, also, saw the smoke coming from the forest and he noticed a glow coming from the forest as well. It has not been raining for a week. That made the forest a little dry. He grabbed his binoculars and looked through them. He was frightened; He saw a fire that started from where the meteor landed and it was spreading fast.

Alex: HOLY CRAP!! UNCLE, CALL THE FIRE DEPARMENT; THE FOREST IS ON FIRE!!

His uncle called the fire department telling them about the situation and from where the fire started there is nothing to stop it from going wild. So, the fire station sent out various fire engines to the source. The sirens from the enignes woke up all the residents of New Townsville and everyone who was outside saw the glow from the fire but not necessarily the flames themselves. Dexter called Momoko by comlink.

Momoko: Uhh? Hello?

Dexter: Momoko. We need you and the elite at the forest now.

Momoko: How come?

Dexter: You know the glow from the forest that is there right now?

Momoko: Yeah. What is it?

Dexter: It is a forest fire that is about to go wild.

Momoko: Can the fire department handle it?

Peach: You need to get to get the team now.

Dexter: Peach. You, on to something?

Peach: I don't like what the fire that is going on.

Momoko: What.

Peach: Something is in there. I haven't felt this fear in three years.

Dexter understood the situation and the fear Peach was having. He summoned the elite and the seven of them advanced toward the forest fire.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile at the dark and eerie place [end of Chapter 1], the assembly was forming and a dark voice has called out toward the other voices.

DS Voice: I am glad that my assembly is coming back toegether again.

Villian 1: I am glad as well.

Villian 2: It indeed is satisfying.

DS Voice: Wait, where is Him?

Villian 2: Which one?

DS Voice: Both of them

Villian 1: Didn't Red Him and Blue Him the only ones that escaped the sealing?

Villian 2: You should know that Umbra escaped as well.

Villian 1: I didn't know that.

DS Voice: I sent Umbra to let both Hims know that the Brotherhood of Malice is coming back to together again.

Then, a blue version of Him came in. Unlike Red Him, he has a different set of abilities, and he is more masculine in tone. His voice is similar to Red Him only deeper and lower. Sometimes, he thinks Red Him is gay.

Blue Him: I have come at last again.

Villian 1: Where is Red Him?

Blue: Unforunately, an organization known as Powerpuff Girls Z has sealed him and thrusted him into outer space.

DS Voice: WHAT!?

Blue: That happened three years ago. I've corrected the problem and he will be heading back to us momentarily.

Villian 2: I understand why you would do that.

Blue: I will head out and get Red Him.

DS Voice: Very well. Go. Return Red Him to us. (Blue Him creates a warp hole and leaves through there. The warp hole vanishes. The focus of the Dark and Sinister Voice returns to the two villians.) Now, focus on unsealing the others.

Villian 1: As you wish, Master Fekete Ordog.

Chapter 8

Secrets Revealed

It was in the evening of a normal day. Momoko and her friends, Miyako and Kaoru, were just heading home from school. Then, Momoko got a call from Dexter asking her to come to the edge of town, alone. That same call was transmitted to Haruto Tai (Brick) as well telling him to meet there as well. They were to meet with Dexter and Princess Melony. They met there at sunset.
Dexter: I'm glad you are here.
Haruto: What's up?
Momoko: Something's on you mind?
Dexter: Yes. I am concerned on the future of this group.
Momoko: The group is fine.
Dexter: I have an assignment for the two of you.
Haruto: What?
Dexter: It is vital that the two of you keep the group together at all cost. The future of this world depends on it.
Momoko: Wait, what do you mean?
Dexter: It is a secret I have to tell about me and Princess Melony.
Melony: What is it Uncle Dexter?
Dexter: The both of us are from the future.
Momoko and Haruto: What?
Dexter: The both of us were sent back into the past and the world I described is what the future of the world is like [Chapter 5].
Melony: So, I (begins to cry) will never see my mommy and daddy again?
Dexter: Melony, your parents exist in this time as well.
Melony: Really?
Dexter: Yes.
Momoko: I guess we should find her parents then.
Dexter: You don't have to do it.
Melony: Why?
Dexter: I know where they are. (Melony's spirit began to lighten.)
Haruto: Then, where are her parents?
Dexter: Over there. (He points to Momoko and Haruto. The two look behind them but they see no one.)
Momoko: I don't see anyone.
Melony: Mommy. Daddy. (She hugs Momoko and Haruto.)
Haruto: What's up with Melony?
Dexter: The two of you should understand. Melony is your daugther.
Momoko: What? (She is tender.)
Haruto: Are you joking with us? Honestly, you are pulling our chain.
Dexter: I am serious; she is your daugther.
Melony: Mommy.
Momoko: Ahh. (She hugs Melony.)
Dexter: Brick, you need to hug your daugther.
Haruto: Wait...
Dexter: Do it.
Haruto: Fine. (He hugs Melony and Momoko. He felt a feeling he was not familiar with. He felt warm and tender inside. "What is this feeling?" he thought. "When, I'm with Momoko I have this feeling, what is it?")
That moment was one of the most calm moments in the lives of Momoko and Haruto. That moment changed their lives for the better. One that would start a series of events that will come later.
Dexter: Remember, you three, you need to keep this a secret. The others will find out evenually but you can not tell them. Okay?
Momoko: Okay. We won't tell.
Melony: We promise.

Chapter 7D

Prison Explosion

After Butch pushed the button, a series of events occured. While, Brick and Dexter were heading to the prisoners. Boomer and Butch set up bombs at various locations. BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!! The ground shook like crazy but the structure did not colapse. But it did create a huge fire.
The droid guards were extremely confused on what happened. Dexter and Brick took advantage of the situation and smashed the droids. Dexter went to the control panel at the side.
Dexter: If I only know the combination to get... (Brick smashed the control panel and all of the cell doors opened.) Okay, that works too.
Blossom: I told you help would arrive.
Dexter: All of you. We come to free you all.
Brick: So, if you don't want to be prisoners than come with us.
Blossom: Who are you?
Dexter: We're Dexter and Brick.
Buttercup: Okay, let's go.
Dexter: (radio) Boomer, Butch, All prisoners are freed.
Boomer: Good, get them out of here. We have the security's attention.
Butch: Get out of here, while you can.
Dexter: I've fought in many battles and what I have learned is the most noble soldiers do not leave the injured behind to die in the chaos. How long can you hold your position?
Boomer: For about a couple of minutes. Just get going.
Dexter: Let's go. (Dexter, Brick, and the girls guided and protected the fugitives. But Dexter accidently made a wrong turn and found themselves at the weapons cache. Dexter grabbed some arms and tossed them to the guys.) I want everyone armed. It's going to be a rough battle but we have to fight our way out. Blossom, Brick, Bubbles, Buttercup, it's up to you to get the guys out of here. I'll go ahead and take down any security in the way.
Brick: Are you sure? That's not how the plan goes.
Dexter: In battle, you need to know when to change the plans. You four, good luck.
Blossom: Be careful. (Dexter goes ahead.) Let's go.
Dexter cleared a path out and the guys followed. It took a while but the prisoners are out; Dexter turned around to get Boomer and Butch.
Dexter: (radio) Boomer, Butch, what's your situation?
Boomer: I said not to worry. We will be fine as long as the civilians are out.
Dexter headed back in. Blossom and the crew (Bubbles, Buttercup, Brick) made sure everyone was safe and headed back in as well.
Meanwhile, Boomer and Butch were about to get caught. Then, Dexter, Brick and the girls reenforced them. The elite were back together again. All seven of them fought the droids. Unexpectedly, the ones who were released came back and fought as well. It became a grand epic battle.
Mandark called Dexter to challenge him. Dexter accepted the challenge. Dexter and Mandark fought one-on-one. Evenually, Dexter slashed at Mandark and beat him. Dexter won the challenge as Mandark fled the battle with his creation and clone Sedusa.
Dexter looked to the battlefield and climbed to the top and got the tri-kingdom banner. The banner had a violet background. In the foreground, were three swords crossing in front of a shield. Around the the swords was wreath of roses. The roses were red, blue, and green in color.
Dexter: VICTORY!! (The droids in the area began to shut down and explode one at a time.) This battle has been won!!
Then, Dexter waved the banner; shouting victory. As he did this, the ones on the ground cheered with glee. Mandark was defeated and was gone. As this was happening, the sun rose in the east. It was later that day that all was restored in New Townsville. Thanks to the Powerpuff Girls Z Elite. (Blossom, Bubbles, Buttercup, Brick, Boomer, Butch, and Dexter)

Chapter 7C

Espionage

It was closing in to midnight, the security of the Tod Herzen Prison was on. In a brush nearby that was not in the light. Dexter was wearing black; he was looking out for the guards. He had a radio transmission.
Dexter: (radio) Boys, I've found a clear spot in the security.
Brick: Okay. Heading to where you are. (The boys arrive at his area.) Okay, this is the place.
Dexter: I have these. (Hands out security uniforms.)
Brick: Good Job. (The guys put the uniforms on.)
Boomer: These uniforms will make us harder to spot.
Butch: Okay, what now?
Brick: Okay, Boomoer and Butch will be the distraction when the time is right. Dexter and I will free the girls, okay?
Boomer: Okay.
Butch: Let's do this. (The four sneak into the prison and they go in undetected.)
Boomer and Butch head toward vital areas of the prison. Brick and Dexter headed for the prisoners. Dexter and Brick were noticed by a rookie guard but the guard thought they were part of the other staff.
Guard: Hey, you guys.
Dexter: Yes.
Guard: Mandark, asked me to get the prisoners and get them to the lab, but I'm afraid of getting beat up. Can you two do that for me? (Dexter decided to take advantage of the opportunity.)
Dexter: We would like to help you.
Guard: Ohh. Thanks. Here is the key to the cells. (The guard hands them the key.)
Dexter: Thank you. Well, we should be going.
Dexter and Brick made it to the prison cells and entered the cell hallway. They saw the frightened prisoners. They explored the hallway and found a variety of prisoners.
Dexter: Okay, Brick. We can not make a sound.
Brick: Okay. (Then, they began to unlock doors but not open them.) Boomer, Butch, do you have the stuff ready?
Boomer: (radio) Yeah. Are you and Brick with the prisoners? (Blossom wakes up and sees the two guards. At first, she thought she saw Brick but she thought it was just a look-alike. She decided to listen in. She wakes up the other two girls.)
Blossom: Girls, wake up. (The others wake up.) I think help just arrived.
Bubbles: Those are just to security guards.
Buttercup: Yeah. It is pointless. You don't know when you should just stop.
Blossom: Just listen to them.
Buttercup: Fine (Bubbles and Buttercup listen in.)
Dexter: (radio) Yes. Are you ready for this? Because once we start, we are not able to stop and turn back.
Butch: We are ready.
Brick: Initiate, Operation: Prison Explosion. (Dexter and Brick heard two droids coming, so they hid. They saw the droids coming.)
Boomer: Initiating in 10... 9... 8... 7... 6... (The droids were getting closer.) 5... 4... (Closer)3... 2... (Closer) 1... (Butch pushes a button.)

Chapter 7B

Imprisoned And The Unholy Cloning

The Rowdyruff Boys had to stay with Dexter to train and finally. Dexter got the plan to overthrow Mandark. The chances of it working would be 80%.
Dexter: I've got it. I got the plan. Momoko, Miyako, Kaoru, I have it. (The girls did not respond.) Girls?
Haruto (Brick): The girls left a while back.
Dexter:I hope they haven't... (Then, Mandark came on the television.)
Mandark: Attention all civilians, the Powerpuff Girls have offically been captured. They will be sent to Tod Herzen Prison. Their identities shall be revealed tomorrow. There are also their allies that needed to be handled as well. Any more info will help.
Tukumi (Boomer): Yep. They got themselves caught.
Dexter: Those fools, if they were more patient we would be preparing for the coup-de-ta. Now, they are in prison.
Haruto: I guess, we should break them out.
Dexter: No we... You know Brick, that's a good idea. It'll be risky though. But if we succeed, not only we would free the girls but everyone falsely arrested as well.
Zhong (Butch): Dexter, Brick, I think we are on to something.
Tukumi: So, who's going to make the plan?
Dexter: It's you idea, Brick. What do you have in mind for this prison break?
Haruto: Well...
Meanwhile at Tod Herzen Prison, the girls were in a prison cell.They were knock out earlier. Blossom just came to.
Blossom: Oww. My head. (She looks around.) Where am I? Bubbles? Buttercup? (She was able to wake them up.)
Bubbles: Oww. Blossom, I'm glad you're okay.
Buttercup: Oww. Where are we?
Blossom: I don't know. (They looked around. It was slightly dark and it was eriee. They are able to tell they were in a small room. The door was able to be seen through. The hallway had many small rooms in the hall. Blossom tried to move the door; it did not move.)
???: Don't even bother. The door isn't going to move. (The girls turned around and saw the mayor. Or who originally was the mayor and Miss Bellum.)
Girls: Mayor. Miss Bellum.
Mayor: I'm glad I get to see the girls again.
Blossom: Where are we?
Mayor: I don't know exactly. I can tell we are in some sort of jail.
Bubbles: Jail? (surprised. They heard the sound of a door.)
Miss Bellum: Someone's there. (Some droid guards come by open the prison door opposite of them and throw a woman in there. The girls were surprised who the woman was after the guards shut and locked the door.)
Blossom: Sakurako? (The woman comes to, and she notices the girls.)
Sakurako: Uhh. The Powerpuff Girls? What are you doing here?
Buttercup: Well. Uhh. It's a long story.
Droid Guards: Hey, all of you. Turn on the TV and watch. (The prisoners turn on the TVs since they have nothing better to do. They saw a steampunk lab setting with an open coffin in the center of the room. There was a circle around the coffin like those used in magic rituals. And off to the side was a shirtless sixteen-year-old boy with a slightly muscular build.)
Blossom: Alex!! (Then, Mandark comes into the screen.)
Mandark: Good Evening. Tonight we will do the procedure on all of you at midnight. We selected out of all of you this young man to demonstrate the procedure. Begin the procedure!!
Bubbles: This isn't going to end well.
Mandark: You will all survive this procedure like this one shall.
WARNING - IF YOU HAVE A WEAK STOMACHE, ARE EASILY FRIGHTENED OR CREEPED OUT, OR CAN GET MENTALLY TRAUMATIZED OR DISTURBED BY GRAPHIC IMAGES, PLEASE STOP READING THIS CHAPTER AND MOVE ON TO THE NEXT ONE. BECAUSE THE NEXT FEW PARTS RESEMBLE SOMETHING FROM A HORROR MOVIE THAT'S RATED "R". YOU'VE BEEN WARNED. THANK YOU.
Several needles came and punctured several points on Alex's body and injected two different types of serum both a red one, a blue one, and a green one. The blue one was an auto-healing serum with will allow Alex to heal his wounds at a ridculously fast rate like Wolverine from X-men. The red one was a paralysis serum which paralyized Alex. Only his head could move. The green serum was a negative pain serum which numbs out any pain. Alex will feel the procedure but it will not hurt.
Then, a yellow tube was then punctured the back and connected itself to the spinal cord. Alex could his chest strech apart. The guys and the audience heard cracking sounds. Alex felt his sternum (or the chest bone which connects the ribs in the front). The skin on his chest begin to bust open and it busted open. Blood splattered when chest opened. Alex and the guys saw ribs move apart from each other exposeing his lungs, heart, and some major blood vessels. Alex began to panic. The sight of this frightened the prisoners almost into a panic. The Powerpuff Girls were disturbed by such a sight. Sakurako fainted and the mayor pratically threw up in the nearest trash can.
A grip claws appeared and they saw them entering his chest. It grabbed his heart and moved along with the heart's rhythm. Alex felt his heart being scratched as the inner claw scrapped cells of the outside of his heart. The claw let go of his heart. There were some heart cells on the inner claw which are visible. The ribs closed and went back to their original position and the sternum reconnected and the skin reconnect and his body healed. Alex almost passed out. The heart cells solidified and created a red pearl the size of a marble. Mandark garbbed it with his hand and placed it gently into the coffin and closed the lid.
Mandark: Time to see the result of the work. (Activates the machine.)
Various bio-chemcials entered the coffin including Chemical X. Everyone could see that various chemical reactions were occuring in the coffin. The coffin rumbled with the chemical reactions. A cry came from the coffin and the rumbling stopped. A human hand came from the coffin and grabbed on the edge and a second one did as well. At this point, all the prisoners were frightened. Then, the coffin opened and a 16-year-old boy appeared from the coffin. The boy stood up and noticed Mandark.
Mandark: Yes, my boy. I am your father and your creator. Guards take the prisoner back to his cell. Next to that one woman I already tested the machine on. Right? (Then, a dressed Sedusa appeared on screen.)
Sedusa: Presicely. (Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup were horrified at this point.)
Blossom: Oh, my god.
Bubbles: This is not good.
Buttercup: This is disgusting.
Alex: THIS IS UNHOLY CLONING!! WHEN YOU DIE, YOU GO TO HELL!! (He said this as the droids carried him off to his cell. Then, the TV's were turned off.)
Bubbles: How much time is that?
Buttercup: About an hour. (The prisoners were panicing now. They asked the Powerpuff Girls to get them out, but that was in vain. The Powerpuff Girls were not able to do anything.)
Blossom: I'm sorry, we can't do anything. (Keeping hope.) But all of you, keep your hopes up. I know help will come and save us.
Bubbles: Are you sure?
Blossom: I am sure of this. (The prisoners were hoping that she was right.)
