Heyyo, bros. I need to explain something. You know those three names I mentioned in the description, right? Lucas Moore, William Prince, and Caleb Smith, right??? Yeah, They are important in this story. How?
HAHAHA, SILLY QUESTION.
I'm not telling you.
....Yeah, that's as much as a hint as I will give you. But cookies to the person who can guess why!
Don't guess. No guessing. I don't want anyone to ruin the plot. That would just be really bad and would ruin this book...

Brick looked around at the surrounding buildings, thinking of how far he had gotten in his life. He spent the next ten years of his life trying to be good.

He wasn't exactly the hero-type like Blossom and her sisters, but he wasn't all that of a villian anymore. Sure, most of his peers called him and his brothers deliquents.

Bad habits are hard to break, right?

Yeah, so what if every once in a while he would spray paint of the side of a building, go lift-shopping, and bully kids to how he saw fit. That doesn't make him a bad guy, right? Just a jerk.

An ex-evil jerk.

Who still was holding a grudge against the Powerpuff Girls.

A grudge that he should have already gotten over with.

Like ten years ago.

Now he should be concerned because he can hear the narrator of this book in his head.

Just, stop it, Brick. Just stop.

Brick passd busy shops and grunted at the traffic in the street. 15 years old and doesn't even have his drivers permit.

Maybe he should study that book Boomer got for him. Since he was, after all, the only Ruff who didn't have his permit.

Such a loser, that Brick is.

Ahem, sorry.

Brick had gotten tired of of walking and decided to just start flying. Who needs their permit, anyway? He can fly. Faster than any stupid car he knew of.

He ascended higher than all of the buildings adn skyscrapers in Townsville. This seemed like such a boring life he was living. When Something interesting happened, it seemed to dissapear as fast as it came.

He took a deep breath of this familiar air that surrouded him. He hoverd a bit in the same spot, and then going in a position as if he were in a hammock. He was finally able to relax, and calm himself. He was away from all of the city lights and his annoying brothers. He felt like he could go to sleep until a ear-ringing scream rang from below.

AHHHHHHHH!

Brick crouched and covered his ears immediately. What the hell is that?

The scream dissapeared after a few seconds, leaving a ringing sound in Brick's ear. With a hand covering one of his ears, he quickly descended, trying to find the source of the scream.

It didn't sound like the scream of the average human. In fact, it felt kind of familiar. Brick's eyes opened wide as he soon realized who made the scream. He slowly turned his head to see the most disgusting sight.

What looked like a living slime blob had all three Powerpuff Girls in make-shift hands.

How the hell did that thing even come to town without anybody realizing it?

Brick raced through the sky to get as close to it as he could. He created a red ball of light energy in his right hand and raised it so he could throw it in the monster's face.

AHHHHHHHH!

That same high pitched scream that no human could make rang out again. Brick lost his focus to cover his ears. The ringing of the scream pounded in his head like a church bell. When it was over, the green glob of a monster was closer to Brick than he had counted for.

It didn't take him long to realize that signature scream was coming from Bubbles.

It wasn't good enough, since it seemed the monster didn't have ears.

Brick shook off whatever ringing was left and quickly made another ball of energy. He swung it at the monster as fast as he could.

The next thing he knew, there was a green light surrounding the small area of the town they were in. Neither the girls nor Brick minded having green goo on them.

"You...huff...bastard...huff...You can't...huff...beat me...." He heard a tired voice say quietly. When the light dissapeared, he watched Buttercup as she was barely able to keep herself flying. However, Blossom and Bubbles were okay.

Buttercup's eyes grew heavier, as she soon closed them and started falling. Her sister's soon caught her by her arms.

"You can't just leave like that and expect everything to go your way, Buttercup! You're lucky it didn't consume your entire body!" Bubbles yelled out in tears.

Brick stared concerned at his brother's counterpart, "Is she okay? A-Are all of you okay?" he asked, worried they might have been hurt.

He watched silently as Blossom mouthed 'Thank you' while nodding her head. They then flew off to the Mayor's office.

Brick shook his head and stared at the green mess the monster had made. He realized the slime was evaporating, and fast! He stared at someone of iton his hands, and watched it dissapear with a hissing noise. It didn't hurt, but felt weird. After the next few seconds, it was like it was never even there. Everything was back to normal.

Ting

Brick blinked at the sound he had just heard. It sounded like something had just fallen. It was small, and he didn't think anybody had noticed it, but his curiosity got the better of him.

He searched the street and sidewalk for the object that the sound had come from. It didn't take him long to find a metal half sphere about the size of his palm.

He flipped it over, investigating whatever it was. In large print, there was M. J. on one side it. Brick could feel himself getting frustrated with the initials, quickly knowing who it belonged to.

Can't that monkey find a hobby or something? You know, instead of trying to kill off the town Heroes?

He grew annoyed at the thought of the monkey.

Ever since he decided he didn't feel like being a full time villain, Mojo has been bothering them about it for a decade. It's not only Mojo, but Him, too. They kept going on about who was their father and then it was who was their mentor and finally who would be the one to turn is evil again. Like, seriously, these grown men should not be chasing after those three kids all the time.

Brick decided to visit Mojo and see what was going on with this green goo. But he didn't want to go alone, no, he couldn't.

He smiled as he thought of the places his brothers would be. Probably somewhere off being the lazy assholes they always were.
