Fan Fiction ❯ Powerpuff Maximum EX. ❯ Chapter 24
Blossom looked at the boy as she slowly moved trying to bite down on her pain while she eyed the pink hair boy with a red jacket and baseball hat, he didn't make a move to help her but he didn't run away. She placed a hand against the wall and held her side, while nothing is broken she think something is bruised.
Like my pride, Blossom thought.
"You don't look okay," the kid said; despite projecting a outward appearance of looking a few years younger than her his eyes told they were the same age, or he had seen worse than her. "But a little tip, the hospitals around here have a history of malpractice; it be wiser to find the nearest layline overlap," he said.
"What's a layline overlap?" Blossom ask trying to fight the pain, "how do you know that I'm a blood fox? Is it that you change planes in Houston your a blood fox?"
"Man," the kid said. "You got an attitude problem, I'm just telling you something."
"Sorry," Blossom said trying to be sincere. "I just got kicked by a huge martial artist."
"I saw," the boy said. "I think there's a layline overlap on an island a little far from here."
"What is a layline overlap?" Blossom asked as the pain slowly began to fade away.
"Look it up on the internet," the boy said as he toss over a piece of paper which Blossom had to bend down to pick up. He left without saying anymore words.
Blossom sighed as she picked up the thin paper and found it was a business card for spiritual animal beings (dot com), she pocket the item and wonder back to the awaiting ferry. Luckily she got there by the last minute, she wasn't in a mood to fly tonight.
The moment she enter her small home she fell on her futon and insatiately fell into a deep sleep, but there was still a few question awaiting for her when she would wake up.
Like how many blood foxes are there?
There was a layover and a train switch on the way to the boarder, nether partner really talked except for neutral chat when things got boring. But through talking the two kind had a loose grasp on each other's life story.
Mitch listen and figure that when she was a fetishist cat burglar someone or something had mixed her with feline DNA, he kind of figured she was a result of science instead of magic (or birth) like so many other animal beings. And it had something to do with a Kessha Kitsune, or else she would have such a hate toward them (and him).
Ashley heard in between Mitch's words that his is a victim of Kessha Kitsune himself, she couldn't figure out how or why but it lead him to the Crisis Organization. And from the way he spoke and his choice of words lead her to figure, despite being younger than 27 year old her, he was much more experience and mature.
It's amazing what is left unsaid can say about a person.
The train stopped and they got off, they were now on their own as the base was dangerously near.
The first thing when Ms. Bellum felt that the base did was throw a party, while this place is very secure almost every free will (and a few Chemical X marionettes) got plastered. If one picture the scene out of Ace Ventura 2 with the monks when Ace left you would get 1/3 of the carnage and happiness that they were experiencing, the morning after the inner-base was a toilet papered mess.
But something was off afterward, Boss Cobra seemed depressed and the deputy mayor, Robin, was around anymore. It didn't take long to connect the boss's depression to Robin's disappearance; but they couldn't figure out what happened.
But as word came in that the enemy was closing in on them they forgot about rumors and clean up the base in a matter of seconds and Boss Cobra straighten himself up.
Robin sat in her cabin of the ship, she was the only one of with exception of the crew and the captain; which was in her cabin telling her they should be heading off to England soon.
The captain was close to late sixties or early seventies, and was he stood there a memory of war came to surface his mind. Something he'll never forget as it was almost D-day, he was a private awaiting to be shipped out and many of his fellow soldiers were saying goodbye to their girlfriends and wives.
Some those women gave off this glow, of life and death. On one end their was life within them and the other they knew that the father wasn't coming back.
Robin has that glow.
Ashley stood next to the tall tree while Mitch eyed the area, they had walked for a few hours now. While both were superhuman they were still human, they need to rest once in a while.
Mitch saw no indication of traps, soldiers or anything else that will complicate their mission and nodded toward Ashley.
Both lean down and rested for a moment, another few miles and they would be at the doorstep of the Black Mafia.
