Powerpuff Girls and Boy (A Spark Of A Family)

Buttercrush

Narrator: The city of Townsville. A pleasant place to live. Unless you run into—

There were the five green-skinned, disreputable-looking fellows walking down the street. On one side, one is a dwarf who looks as if he just jumped out of a Picasso painting, another is big and fat, with a shock of orange hair covering the top half of his face. On the other side are a bug-eyed hunchback with an enormous chin, ragged clothes, and a long tongue hanging out and, behind him, a skinny guy with a long, pointed nose and a cap turned backward. The one in the center is tall and slim, has straight, greasy hair and a scraggly mustache. He wears sunglasses and a life-preserver jacket.

Narrator: —the Gangreen Gang! The biggest bunch of belligerent bullies this town’s ever seen!

They continue along the street for several seconds when they get to the park, a dodgeball lying on the ground. The Gang come from the right all except the one with the shades keep going until they move left. He stops at the ball and clears his throat loudly, and the others back up to join him. 

Shades wearer: Well, well! What do we have here?

He picks the ball up and holds it. Three little kids come up and look up at the group pleadingly.

Kid:  Excuse me, mister…but…can we have our ball back?

Shades Wearer: Mister? 

He spinned the ball on his finger.

Shades Wearer: You’re talkin’ to Ace, kid. There are no Misters here…at least, I don’t think so. Um, Lil' Arturo, is your name Mister?

Lil Auturo laughs for a moment, then cuts himself off sharply.

Lil' Arturo: No.

Ace: How ’bout you, Big Billy?

Billy: Duh no.

Ace: Grubber?

Grubber: Pbb Pp Ppb Bbt! (Loosely translated: “Not a snowball’s chance.”)

Ace: Yeah, I thought so. Hey, is your name Mister, Snake?

Snake speaks with a pronounced hiss and a forked tongue.

Snake: Yes-s-s.

Ace punches him.

Snake: I mean no.

Ace: Sorry. You three are way off track. 

Then there was a long silence.

Kid: Well…can we have our ball back anyway?

Ace: Oh, sure. Why not?

Instead of handing the ball back, he bounces it off the faces of all three of them, knocking them to the ground. They lie shaking fearfully in the Gang’s shadows.

Ace: Hey, boys!

Snake/Arturo/Billy: What is it, Ace? 

Grubber blows a raspberry with them.

Ace: I don’t think these kids are having’ fun.

Lil' Arturo: You want us to show them how to have fun?

Ace: Yes, Lil' Arturo. Let’s show them how to have fun…Gangrene style!

Snake grabs hold of a merry-go-round with two kids on it and spins hard, sending them flying. Grubber sinks his teeth into a tire swing and shakes it and its occupant back and forth like a dog worrying about a bedroom slipper. A jungle gym is crushed when Big Billy falls on it.
