A picture of the Dynamo appeared on the screen. It was a little blurry, but one could make out what seems to be a rip on the sky which the Dynamo seems to enter. It looks like a narrow crack that has a gold outline. The hole literally gives someone a glance at the past showing a part of Edo. On the ankle of the Dynamo itself were several black particles entering through the joint.

"This picture was taken just before the Dynamo reached hyper speed," the professor said as he gestured to the screen.

"Are those HIM's black particles?" Momoko asked.

"So that's how HIM was able to send monsters and mess with our way back home," Miyako said out of realization.

"Yes. And this was a picture of when the Dynamo was successfully able to enter the rift," professor said as he showed another picture where it seems that the crack is beginning to close. "Look closer and you can see that some dark particles are by the edges of the rift."

"Yeah, so?" Kaoru asked impatiently.

"So, when that rift started to close. it wasn't successful to mend itself properly because some dark particles are in the way," the professor said. "If it were something else, like a pen or something that was in the way of the mending rift, it would just simply disappear in time. But this is something controlled by a being beyond what science can explain. I didn't know what would happen, until today. I finally confirmed my theory about the universal glitch and this was the reason behind this phenomena!"

"I know that this is so much to take in," Ken said.

"Nah, not really. After what we've been through about a week ago, this doesn't seem so strange. So what else do we need to know and what should we do about it?" Momoko said confidently.

The professor wiped off an imaginary tear and said, "Oh, girls, you really matured during the past year that we've been together!"

"Yeah, yeah, just tell us what we need to do already," Kaoru said while gesturing the professor to go on.

"Oh, right, hehehe! So since those particles are partially infused with dark Z rays, it seems that those affected with dark Z rays experience more glitches than those without them," the professor said. "And remember when we told you girls about three white Z rays hitting each of you, there were at least seven other black Z rays, which means that chemical Z contains more dark than light."

"Uhh, professor, where exactly are you going with this?" Miyako asked confused.

"It means that the universal glitch will affect those that contain actual chemical Z in their bodies. And who do we know that are made out of chemical Z?"

Momoko and Miyako gasped while Kaoru looked surprised, "The Rowdyruff Boys?!"

"What? What are we so surprised about anyway?" Kaoru then said as she calmed down.

"Because you three are going to have to bring them here to the lab so that we can study more about the glitch," the professor said.

"What?!" Kaoru yelled. She remembered what happened in Egypt when she had to blow a kiss to Butch to defeat them.

"Yeah, like Kaoru said. What?! Didn't you guys know about what we had to do to defeat those guys?! We had to kiss them! KISS THEM! Well, we blew them a kiss, but Kaoru would feel too embarrassed to even get near them," Momoko exclaimed as she was blushing intensely.

"Yeah, I'd feel embarrassed too," Miyako said quietly while blushing slightly. 'Boomer actually looked cute when I blew him a kiss.'

"Hey! Don't act like I was the only one embarrassed here!" Kaoru yelled.

"Can't you girls just go anyway?" Ken asked with sweat dropping from his forehead.

"NO!" the three girls exclaimed simultaneously.

"You managed to practically kidnap us when we first got our powers, why can't you just do it again?!" Momoko yelled.

"Oh, girls, it's always so lively here when you're around, da wan!" Poochie said.
(After some time of arguing and debating...)

"Ugh, I can't believe we're still going to get the Rowdyruff Boys for the professor," Buttercup said as she was flying lazily.

"Well, he did say that he was a debating champion once," Bubbles said while flying lazily too.

"Well, Rowdyruff Boys, here we come! Or something..."
