After seeing Blossom safe and sound I went back to camp and BC came running at me. She grabbed my arm and dragged me into the forest.

"What wrong with you?" I shout, tearing my arm away from her and heading back. She runs after me, jumping on me and tackling me to the floor just past the edge of the forest. "What the hell Kaoru?"

"No, please don't!" she has tears pouring down her cheeks which made me confused enough to stop fighting. Butch didn't cry, do neither would she.

Suddenly a huge explosion sets off, causing my ears to ring and I look in shock as the camp explodes. BC clings to me and I grip back, using my body to shield her from any derbies. Sure enough a chunk of roof comes and hits me on the head, making blackness surround me.

I woke up to a swarm of blury, unrecognizable voices. I say up quickly, groaning as memories and pain rebound on my head. I touch my head and feel the soaked bandages.

"Sit down dude, you took a hard hit," a voice commands, grabbing my arm and pushing me back onto the couch. I blink my eyes a few times until I can see again and look up to see a familiar brown haired gold eyes nuisance.

"Where's Momoko?" I say, sitting up again which only earned a new rebound of pain. Josh looks at me, his right eye purple and swop Ken shut and a thin stream of blood going down his cheek.

"She never came back after she ran out last night, not that I know of. But we're still searching the wreckage," he says supportively, looking sad.

"Wreckage?" I ask, swinging my legs over the couch. Josh puts a stopping hand on my shoulder and I look at him. "What happened?"

"Your brothers, the RowdyRuff Boys, blew up half the camp and killed nearly everyone in it. So far we haven't found five people-Momoko and her sister, Miyako, Mitch, Bruce, and Carissa," he explains. I blink at him slowly, registering what he said. My brothers, blew up the camp?

"I'm sorry, man," was all I could say. Momo and Miya were his friends as well as mine, and he really cared for Mitch and Bruce.

"Spoils of war," he returned weakly. I nod sadly and stare out the window where BC was bending over, digging for the missing bodies of her siblings.

Suddenly I catch a glance of pink as two people come out of the forest. Momoko was in a clean pink dress with a black stripe that flowed out at mid-thigh, the same with Miyako. They looked fresh but tired and sad.

Kaoru ran to them, developing them in a hug and I walked out the door towards them, throwing off the bandage. I didn't want Momo to worry.

"You're okay!" I call out, pulling Momoko into a hug without thinking. She was stiff yet familiar in my embrace before she gently pushes me away.

"Of course I am, now what happened here?" she asks, her voice as proud as ever. I glance nervously at Buttercup for assistance and she sighs in defeat.

"Butch and Boomer were taken over by Him. They wrecked the whole place and killed a bunch of people," she says quickly, hiding her eyes from us.

"No," Bubbles gasps, covering her mouth. Tears of despair glassed over her eyes and she shook her head. "They couldn't, no!"

"They did," I say quietly, looking down which caused a small throb in my head. I feel something warm squeezes hand and I look down to see Blossom looking at me.

"Where are they now?" she asks quietly.

"They disappeared into the forest, we thought they got you!" Buttercup says thankfully, pulling them into another hug. My head throbs again, and I grit my teeth angrily.

"They almost got me, but thankfully Brick was there," Bubbles says, smiling at me. I raise my eyebrow in confusion. I know I just got hit in the head and all, but I'm pretty sure I didn't save her from my brothers.

"I was here practically the whole night, I didn't see you," I say curiously. Suddenly I think of the boy that saved blossom and inwardly laughed. "There was a boy that saved you, I saw him. He must have saved Bubbles too."

"A boy?" Blossom asks.

"He looked a lot like me, but he wasn't. I saw him carry you off after..." I let the rest fill the air and Blossom nods, turning away sadly.

"Orange hair, light red eyes?" Buttercup asks suddenly.

"Yes!" Bubbles says. Blossom and I nod in agreement and Buttercup starts to laugh. How could she find anything funny now?

"What's so funny about that?" Blossom asks curiously. Buttercup stops suddenly and shakes her head.

"Nothing, don worry about it. He's a good kid," she assures us. Who the hell is he?

"Who?" Bubbles asks, looking desperate. Buttercup ignores her question and turns to look at me, her green eyes alight with knowledge.

"I think I know how to save your brothers, we just need to find them," she says, looking thoughtful.

"How?" I ask confused. Buttercup waves her hand, blowing away my question and nods approvingly.

"Don't worry about it, now let's go find some suckers," she says, slamming her closed fist into her palm.

"As majestic as that is, we can't just charge in there without a strategy," Blossom says knowingly. "Plus we don't have a clue where they're at."

"Actually," Buttercup says holding up a scrap of green cloth. "I think we do."

I stare at the cloth that obviously belonged to Butch and nodded, smiling along with the others. If BC was anything like Butch this might just work.

"Never doubt a PowerPuff, that's for sure," i say,nodding. I meet the others gaze, joining into their determination. Him was gonna die for sure now.

"Are you ready?" Blossom asks, coming up behind me. I turn to look at her and gape openly at her. She still had her dress on from earlier, but now she had high white socks that only left two inches of bare skin on her legs with black shoes and her hair was tied up in a familiar red ribbon.

"As i'll ever be," I shrug. She grabs my hand and glances at my newly applied bandage

"You were injured?" she asks, gently touching my head. I pull down her hand more from pain than anything and smile at her. "You shouldn't come."

"You shouldn't worry, I'm a ruff," I say, winking. Blossom looks up at me doubtfully and suddenly jumps forward, pressing her lips on mine. It was as if a million fireworks just went off in my body, sending me into heaven.

She pulls away and smiles at me, releasing my hand. "Let's just hope you live up to the name."

"Always," I smile down to her and she blushes, turning away as her sisters came. They were in the same outfits as her, but in their own colors. (Think of snafu, look it up if you don't know)

"Ready?" Buttercup asks, looking between me and Blossom. I nod and then she does.

"Let's go rescue some people!" Bubbles cheers, punching her fist into the air. Blossom giggles and Buttercup rolls her eyes, a smile playing on her lips.

"Here BC," I say, holding out Butch's shirt scrap for you. She gets close and sniffs it deeply, wrinkling her nose in distaste.

"Yup, I'll be able to find him no problem. He'll be the only crappy smelling thing in the forest," she shakes her head and sniffs the air, flying into the forest. Bubbles flies after her and Blossom floats in the air, glancing back at me before zooming off.

I transform into long black pants and black jacket with red bands around my arms and fly after them.
