Hearing that sarcastic tone come out of Bubbles mouth as she thanked an asshole for not using their blinker was one thing, but seeing the half-moon bags under her eyes that she oh so desperately tried to conceal was something entirely different. She hasn't slept in days, none of us have. But who can blame us when three of our supposedly dead enemies pop up out of the blue claiming to be vampires who want to take us as their mates.

We laughed at first, told them they where crazy idiots and that we weren't easily scared. Blossom even went as far as offering them directions to Townsville's very own mental institution. We walked away after that not knowing that they were following us. Days passed and nothing happened out of the ordinary. Leader Girl kept complaining that someone was watching her every move though and as the days passed by I began to believe it too. Bubbles put it off to stress and I would've agreed with her if I hadn't found the body the very next day. He was drained of every ounce of blood and was as white as his lab coat. His eyes were left open and it was obvious that he died in pain. Pinned to his black tie was a note written in his blood asking a simple five word question.

Do you believe us now?

I fell to the ground in a state of shock and pulled my knees up to my chest; hiding my face in my arms. I didn't cry. I never cry. It's a sign of weakness. But I did sit stunned. Here was the man who loved me for my imperfections. In his eyes I didn't need to be as smart as Blossom or as sweet as Bubbles. I was Buttercup. I was his easily pissed of, ready for action, punch throwing, fun-loving, tomboyish Buttercup. In his eyes what society deemed as imperfect made me perfect and those bastards took him away from me.

It was in that instant that I realized a strong set of arms had wrapped themselves around my torso and pulled me against someones chest. Their chin was resting in between the nook of my shoulder and neck. I turned my head and was suddenly nose to nose with Butch Jojo. His dark hair was spiked and contrasted his pale skin well. His famously annoying smirk adorned his face and his dark green eyes captured my attention. It was those same dark green eyes that ignited my rage. My right hand clenched and was about to make contact with his face when suddenly he grasped my wrist. I threw a left-handed punch but he caught that too and I was pinned to the ground in a matter of seconds. Butch hovered over me straddling my waist and pinning my hands above my head.

"So?" he said while chuckling about my current... situation.

"So, what?" I hissed back at him as he leaned down so that his mouth was directly next to my ear.

"Do you believe me now?" And with that he attacked my neck with kisses. He kissed up my neck and left a trail of light kisses along my jaw line until his lips hovered over mine.

"Your mine Buttercup Utonium. No one else's. Understood?" The possessive edge in his voice made my head spin and the fact that his lips meet mine soon after that didn't help the whole spinning problem.

He deepened the kiss and let out a deep growl of possessive frustration as he wrapped both arms around my waist. My arms found themselves thrown over his neck; my hands pulling at his dark locks. We fought for dominance for what seemed like ages until he finally bit down on my lower lip and pulled away with a look of pure happiness plastered on his usually smug face. To bad I had to ruin the moment by bringing my knee up to a place where the sun don't often shine.

He groaned and fell over in pain. Not wanting to miss my opportunity for freedom I sprinted up the basement stairs, through the living room, and out onto the porch with Butch right on my heels. I flew off the porch and up into the sky. The sun was bright as I turned around expecting Butch to be floating near me prepared to fight but instead I faced a never-ending blue sky. Nothing and no one else. Confused I looked down to see Butch standing near the very edge of the shaded porch looking beyond pissed. That's when it hit me, vampires and sunlight don't mix well.

I flew down to the ground and stood in the sunlight, just out of his reach, and smirked. A deep, animalistic growl echoed through the air as I laughed at the sudden turn of events.

"This isn't funny Butters, now come here" Funny how the bastard still thought he could control me when he couldn't even touch me.

"Nope" I said, popping the "p" for extra emphasis.

"BC I suggest you get your ass over here before I force you to."

"Oh I'm shaking in my vans." Sarcasm dripped of my tongue like blood on a knife. "If you haven't noticed you can't do shit due to the fact that the sun's shining down on me at this very moment. Did you ever think about that jackass?"

"And did you ever think about the fact that night will fall in a matter of hours sweet-cheeks?

I was just about to snap at him for calling me sweet-cheeks when my sisters landed next to me, each rapidly explaining their encounters with their counterparts. I couldn't tell them about the professor. Not yet anyway. I looked back at Butch who had regained that stupid smirk on his face. Without breaking eye contact I told my sisters to fly ahead of me and that I'd catch up soon.

I looked at the line where the shade and sunlight meet until I knew they were gone. I laughed when I thought of how ironic it was that evil was stuck in the darkness while good could withstand the light. I then locked eyes with Butch.

"This whole fantasy you have of me becoming your mate will never work. I'm good and you're evil. I'm a hero and you're a murderer. I'm the light and you're the darkness. We don't mix and we never will. I will never be yours. Understood?"

I turned and walked away only to hear him say "Your wrong."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yep" he said popping the "p".

"Well then catch me if you can."

With that I flew off to meet my sisters. We used our connections as Power Puffs to "borrow" a new, black SUV from a dealership just outside of town and hit the road running.

The whole fiasco with Butch happened about a week ago and as I looked at Bubbles, who was driving, I could see the fear in her eyes and knew that we needed to figure out a better plan soon.

"BC have you even been listening to a word I've been saying?" I looked back at Blossom who looked thoroughly annoyed

" Sorry Leader Girl, if you want the truth then the answers no" Blossom groaned in annoyance, "but I could tell you a lie if you want."

"Look BC, we have been driving for a consecutive week. It's time we stopped somewhere to rest and shower properly. they can not still be following us after all this time and we can not keep sleeping in this damn car. We will stop during the day to ensure the fact that they can't get to us and we will be back on the road that same night."

"Sounds like a plan Bloss, you o.k with that Baby Blue?"

"Yeah, whatever, just as long as I can stop driving soon."

I looked at the clock and realized that it was half past midnight; I told Bubbles to pull over at the nearest gas station.

"I'm thirsty and I'm in desperate need of some caffeine. After we stop I'll take over the wheel for a little while."

Luckily for Bubbles we stumbled upon an A.M.P.M about fifteen minutes later. We drove up and Bubbles parked like crap, as usual, taking up three potential parking spots somehow. I asked my sisters if they wanted anything and assumed that the resounding silence meant no. We all got out of the car I walked over to the station while Bloss and Bubs went to the outdoor bathroom.

I walked into the shabby little store and bought a and a large black coffee. As I walked back to the SUV I noticed that my sisters weren't in the car yet. I knew I shouldn't freak out but a part of me was still worried about them. I got into the driver's seat of the SUV and turned the car on. As I sat nervously awaiting the arrival of my sisters every shadow turned into hideous creatures that wanted me dead. My heart began to beat a mile a minute and I started to clutch the steering wheel if only to assure myself that I was still alive and breathing.

"Boo" a monotone voice whispered from behind me and I jumped, hitting my head on the roof of the car. I looked into the rear view mirror only to see a pair of dark green eyes glowing with excitement. I jumped out of the car but he was faster than me and soon I was pinned between him and the car.

"Well if it isn't my little Buttercup." He said as he absent-mindedly tucked a piece of my raven colored hair behind my ear. He wore his infamous smirk that I desperately wanted to wipe off his stupid face.

"And how are we on this fine night?" He asked sarcastically.

"We'd be better if we didn't have to look at your ugly ass face."

"Now I know for a fact that this face is highly attractive, thank you very much."

"Butch, your birth certificate was an apology letter from a condom factory. There's no need to lie to me about your looks; just admit that you are ugly and save everyone the trouble of listening to you fawn over yourself."

"Babe you and I both know that not only am I attractive but we make a highly attractive couple." He chuckled as he lightly pushed me against the SUV

"And I must say that you are even more fun when your feisty." he added with a smirk.

"Two things you asshole. One: Don't call me babe. Two:We are not a couple. Now where are my sisters?"

"They're safe and sound with my brothers. We'll be meeting up with them soon."

"I swear if they hurt them-"

"They won't." He said suddenly interrupting her, "What will it take for you girls to learn that we truly love you, huh? I mean do we have to spell it out for you. When will you understand that we were created because of you? The connection we have isn't something that's shared between just anyone. When will you understand that?" He was practically yelling by the end of his little speech. He threw a punch near my face but it hit the car, obviously leaving a dent. He held my gaze for what seemed like forever until he suddenly hugged me, burying his face in my neck.

I stood their stunned and terrified, but I was determined to make him understand my choices.

"And when will you understand that you murdered my father? When will you understand that you took away the only person who truly accepted me? When will you understand that my entire life has been dedicated to stopping people like you from getting away with crime. My entire existence is based on stopping evil from succeeding. And you're evil. And I'm good. And we don't mix."

He looked up at me eerily calm " You see that's where your wrong cupcake. Your destiny isn't to stop evil from succeeding, it's to be the light in which the darkness clings to. Your destiny is to keep evil sane."

He cupped my cheek and ran his thumb lightly across my lips. He leaned in until his lips were barely touching mine and he whispered, "My own little personal ray of light."

And then he kissed me, first lightly then with more passion and hunger then I knew existed. My hands tangled in his hair as he deepened the kiss and my world began to spin again. I knew I shouldn't be liking this... but I was. And it frustrated me.

He pulled away and kissed my cheek; looking smug and content at the same time. So I did the only thing I could think to do. I slapped him hard across the cheek and he just stood there and laughed.

"Now there's the Butters I know and love." He smiled at me and for some reason I smiled back.

His smile faded soon after, "I wish I could say this wouldn't hurt , but I'd be lying and that's sort of something I don't want to do to you babe."

I was confused for an instant until he quickly tilted my head to the side and barred his fangs. The bastard bit me and it stung like a fire coursing through my veins. After about a minute he pulled away. Everything was becoming foggy. The last words I heard before unconsciousness engulfed me were "Oh and by the way cupcake, I caught you."
