Author POV:

The sound of black Kate Botta heels clicking at every step HIM took, before standing in front of the three boys.

"My, my, if it isn't my grandchildren." His voice echoed throughout the building, making everyone stare and stand in fear.

Before the front lady demon could speak for her behavior, HIM snapped his claws and she was turned into powder. "Take her to the kitchen. I love my food to be seasoned with a brand new soul" HIM said, his evil smile never leaving his lips.

The coworker nodded his head and transferred the soul into a new jar. The boys stared in horror and gulped in fear.

HIM wasn't a fan of his three sons. Yes, he did raise them at some point and was happy they were following in his footsteps of taking over the world. Still, when they stepped down and heard the engagement from others he was furious and embarrassed that his sons became nobodies and brought shame to the family name.

Yet...

He was never against the idea of becoming a grandfather. The idea of losing his sons to the heroic Powerpuff Girls was devastating, but the idea of recreating them with the help of a new generation always brought him joy.

"Come to my office, we can talk there." HIM said, turning around to walk back into the elevator. The three boys followed HIM from behind and entered the elevator to see what floor would be chosen.

'DH Floor'

Once the elevator door opened the boys stepped out and saw the dark red room, it gave the feeling of hell and the early 80's. HIM sat down on his big leather chair and placed both claws on top of each other.

The three cousins sat on the empty chairs and tried to be as polite as possible, "Mm, you three look exactly like your fathers." HIM mumbles, his eyes admiring the small details of each boy.

"Tell me, what's your reason for coming here today?" He asked, Brake took a deep breath before placing every piece of evidence onto the table.

"We were hoping you could help us know if our mothers are still alive, since you can see all and are an expert on dark magic it would be really helpful" Brake explained, and sat quietly for a response.

HIM raised a brow before agreeing, "I'll help, but in exchange, I'll need a favor, of course." His smile growing bigger by the second. Brake looks at his grandfather with hesitation, before agreeing along with his cousins.

A black contract pops up in flames and HIM rips a piece of skin on each boy's arm along with a drop of blood to stamp the contract in confirming it's been done.

"Fuck! Fuck you! You bastard!" The boys continued yelling out swear words as they held their arms in pain. HIM rolled his eyes before placing three bandages on the damaged skin.

HIM began looking through the evidence with his powers without even touching the objects or documents. He sighs in disappointment and stands up from his leather office chair to walk over to the bookcases, he looks through the books until he sees a black book with red skeletons heads wrapped around them.

He opens up the book and reads through what's already written down.

"They're dead."

"Are you sure the girls aren't from another world?" Dexter asked the Professor, before putting in a new screw. "Yes, if the girls were from another world, they wouldn't have powers or the type of strength they have now. I have tested that in every other dimension, the girls are not superhuman, but are different creatures or have a different storyline or are not even related to each other."

Dexter scratches his head, "But what if these girls came from an earlier timeline?" The Professor freezes, before scoffing in disagreement. "It couldn't be, or else the whole timeline would get destroyed and since it's been more than a few days, we're still here so there shouldn't be any issues."

Dexter doesn't let the thought slip away from his mind though, it stays in his head for a while until the Professor needs his help with one of the blueprints.

_______________________

Brick and Blossom along with Bubbles are waiting in the living room for two guests to arrive, Blossom is a bit frightened and nervous even though she shouldn't be because it's just a quick visit from her two most loyal friends.

She turns her head to the right to face her younger sister and her sister is trembling with sweat. Blossom guessed she was not the only one who felt the same as her.

The house bell rings and they both stand up at the same time. Brick chuckles and they both agree on Brick opening the front door. Blossom stands in the living room, her sweaty hands tied together while she tries to not show she's nervous.

Once Brick is done welcoming in the new guests, Berserk steps aside and they both feel overwhelmed by each other's sight because of how frozen they are standing. Berserk's eyes quickly turned glossy before she covered her mouth to prevent from letting out a sob.

Berserk's husband rubs her back with care to calm her down. But Berserk doesn't seem to believe what's happening at the moment. she shook her head and looked away, "It can't be, it can't be." She repeats while looking at her husband.

Braxton mumbles a few comforting words before encouraging her to take a step forward and say something. But Berserk can't, not at the moment at least, and Blossom seems to notice the horrifying trembling and fast breathing.

Flashback:

"Stay the fuck away from me!!" The 19-year-old screamed, her tears full of pain running down her pale cheeks to the point they weren't pale anymore because of all the ruined black mascara.

"You're not alone. Please talk to me." Blossom frowned and tried to slowly step forward, but Berserk's eyes widened bright red and she shot fire arrows at the superhero. Blossom quickly dodged it by creating a huge ice shield, "You're a liar!! Just like everyone else!! You don't care about anyone but your own status!!" She yelled, showing her true anger before wrapping her arms around herself.

Blossom tried again and made another step forward, but Berserk sensed her movement and her long hair ribbon stretched out to the point it wrapped tightly around Blossom's body and threw her across the rooftop.

Blossom groaned in pain and slowly stood up before she coughed up the dust from the broken-down bricks of the door entrance. "I...I-I know how it's like being pressured all the t-time, I know h-how it's like b-being abused a-all the t-time, I understand the l-loneliness."

Berserk fell down to her knees and covered up her face with both palms before she let out loud sobs, "I-I don't want this anymore." She cried, and Blossom took the chance to get closer to her. She bent down and placed both arms around her, the fast breathing and trembling got faster by the second, and Blossom moved back to get a chance to hold her face.

"Deep breaths, deep breaths, come on. 1...2...3...4...5...Again...1...2...3...4...5" Blossom notices the bottle of pills in Berserk's red skirt, she takes a small sigh before her lips slightly frown and she slowly opens up her arms to see if Berserk will want skin contact again.

No time is wasted because Berserk hugs Blossom with quick speed. It takes time before Berserk fully opens up to Blossom and explains all the pain she's been and is going through now at the moment.

Blossom's broken smile and eyes make Berserk's eyes widen in pure shock and she can perfectly tell that even a good person who has it all can be secretly broken inside too. Blossom slowly lets out broken cries along with chuckles and Berserk finds it funny how the person who has not made her feel so lonely anymore is her rival.

They stay in each other's comfort on the roof floor for more than an hour before they both agree to a new beginning of their friendship.

Flashback ended:

Blossom lets out a loud trembling gasp and stumbles back before taking the courage to step forward and grab a hold of Berserk's face. "Deep breaths, deep breaths, come on. 1...2...3...4...5...Again...1...2...3...4...5" Blossom repeats, "I can't, I can't" she mumbles, her voice still heavy breathing and she closes her eyes as tight as she could to avoid those pink determined eyes.

"It can't be. It can't be true! You left, and you left me. You left without even saying goodbye." Her voice cracked, and tears slowly formed at the corners of her eyelids. "It can't be true, you're not here...you're not here and I'm s-still a-alone"

"Hey! Stop it! You are not alone, not anymore. I'm here, I promise we're here. I'm here! So please, can you look at me in the eyes." Blossom asked with a soft smile. Berserk shook her head 'no'. Blossom understood, and grabbed her hands to connect their fingers, "Can I at least get a hug from my best friend?" She asked, it took a second but Berserk nodded her head.

Blossom continued smiling and wrapped her arms around Berserk's body and waited for her to feel comfortable to hug back. When Berserk felt the missing touch that had always made her feel welcomed and appreciated, she couldn't help but hug her back desperately.

Blossom has always been like a big sister to her ever since the day they became best friends and she had saved her life from her dark thoughts.

The sobbing continued for a while and by the time they detached themselves from their hug, they both noticed that the group had decided to to give them privacy to let their emotions out.

Blossom looked around and tried to check if the group had maybe gone to the kitchen to talk. "You really are back," Berserk whispered, still feeling shocked and amazed by her presence. Blossom looks back at her, not feeling so sure at first but she slowly gulps and tries to hide her nervousness with a bright revealing smile.

"I guess I am."
