First thing they did was going to the nearest ice-cream parlour and gulped down as much banana splits and sundaes as they can. They were lucky to see The Mayor there enjoying an ice-cream float, so they decided to ask The Mayor for the favour.
“Why, hello, girls!” The Mayor said as he shoved a spoonful of ice-cream into his mouth, staining his moustache in the process. “Fancy seeing you here! What can I do for you?”
“Well, actually…” Bubbles said after a number of shoving by her sisters. Her cute voice made her easily persuasive. “We sort of have a…bet with some friends and they didn’t think we could do it.”
“What? A super hero that cannot do a simple bet?” The Mayor was, as gullible as he was, shocked. “That is absolutely absurd! Now what seems to be the bet here?”
“Well, they bet that we couldn’t eat more than 10 banana splits and 10 sundaes, and we’re here to prove them wrong, it’s just that we didn’t dare to ask the Professor to pay for all the sundaes and banana splits that we are certainly going to finish, so…uh…if you would be so kind as to…”
“Pay for it? No problem!” The Mayor agreed almost immediately. He called the waiter, “Oh, waiter! Treat these girls with all the banana splits and sundaes they want and put it under my tab! And they say our sweet super heroes couldn’t do this simple bet! You show them, girls!”
“Thanks, Mayor!” the girls said gleefully and within no time, they gobbled up all the many sundaes and banana splits laid before them. Death who was following behind them nodded, feeling really impressed.
Next, they went over to each and every villain’s home and gave them a good beating for no particular reason (well, actually they had a reason to kick Mojo Jojo’s butt because of what they are due to him). There was the Amoeba Boys who didn’t know what hit them and only realized that they were being beaten when their bodies were already in a pulp; the Gangreen Gang who were coincidentally trying to trick a grandmother out of her purse full of money; Fuzzy Lumpkins who blared his gun at them, yelling, “Get outta my property, ye flea-bitten rascals!!” There was also other villains like Roach Coach, Princess (I hate that whiney girl anyways) and also Leech. If that wasn’t enough, they went to the Townsville Correctional Centre and helped the police to beat up those hard-headed criminals the police couldn’t handle. Him was not around at home, so they had to skip that.
Later, they asked some money from Professor Utonium so that they could go to the fun fair which was outside Townsville. There, they took plenty of rides and ate loads of delicious junk food they seldom ate before. They were lucky they didn’t get sick and puke their guts out like the other people who took the rides.
After that, they went over to the Rowdyruff Boys’ home and decided to have a fight with them fair and square. Mojo Jojo recreated the boys but they decided to work on their own without the monkey’s help, and so built a home of their own outside of Townsville.
“Yo, Butch, Brick, Boomer!” Buttercup called out loudly. “Come on out!”
The Rowdyruff Boys came out of their hideout. Explanations weren’t needed. As soon as the girls and the boys met each other face to face, the boys knew what they were supposed to do. They started their battle. Butt-kicking and face-punching ensured. The whole place became pretty topsy-turvy and wrecked up as the boys and the girls fought really bad with each other. Luckily they didn’t take it out into Townsville, or the whole place would be a worse wreck. After what seemed like a very, very long fight, the girls finally called it quits.
“What?! You’re giving up?! I don’t believe this!” Boomer said as he grabbed Bubbles’ collar. “That’s not the Powerpuff Girls we know! The Powerpuff Girls never give up!”
“Yeah! What’s gotten into you girls?!” Butch and Brick said together.
“I guess we’ve met our match,” Blossom said as she pulled herself up.
“Yeah, we just don’t wanna admit it and force ourselves to fight on,” Buttercup replied bitterly. She, for one, didn’t like admitting defeat out loud.
“You’re the strongest of all villains!” Bubbles said cheerfully and kissed Butch’s cheek sweetly, which Butch groaned in disgust.
As the girls left back to Townsville, Buttercup turned to Blossom and said, “Are you sure that this is the right thing to do? I mean, it’s sick to actually admit that they’re better than us!”
“Well, we won’t feel sick for that long,” Blossom replied. “We’re gonna be out of this world sooner or later anyway. Let them feel better. Wouldn’t you want to defeat someone for the last time before you’ll ever get to see them again?”
“Yeah, and they really are stronger than we are, when it comes to strength, that is,” Bubbles agreed.
The rest of the day was spent on more tedious stuff like visiting each and every one of their friends’ home and play with them. Next it was spending time with The Mayor playing silly games he invented. They worked themselves up all day until they were so tired, Professor Utonium excused them from dinner to get an early shut-eye.
In bed, the Powerpuff Girls began to contemplate about their day today. Blossom started first, “Well, do we have anything else we haven’t done yet?”
“Practically nothing,” Buttercup replied. “We’ve done everything there is in the list of things we always wanted to do.”
“But we haven’t said goodbye to the Professor and all our friends at school,” Bubbles reminded her sisters.
“We have enough time until dusk tomorrow. We have plenty of time to say goodbye to everyone,” Blossom patted her blonde sister’s head.
“I hate to say this but…” Buttercup hesitated before saying, “I’m gonna miss everyone in Townsville.”
“Me too!” Bubbles whined tearfully. “I don’t want to die! I love everybody in Townsville!”
“Well, we sure know that we can’t escape death,” Blossom tried to calm Bubbles down. “When it’s time, then it’s time. We cannot fight destiny. If we are destined to die at dusk tomorrow, then it is settled. We have to follow the rules of life and death.”
“Destiny stinks!” Buttercup punched the pillow she was lying on before finally giving in to her tears. Blossom couldn’t hold to her tears any longer and Bubbles has already started crying.
Needless to say, the girls cried themselves to sleep that night.
