The Powerpuff Girls Page #4

Professor:
Oh no!

[The same red ball bumps into the Professors car and continues down Blossoms path. The scene changes to Blossom, keeping her in a fixed distance and focus as she nimbly zooms down city streets. As the camera stops, the roadway behind her glows red and cracks, erupting into flaming debris. Becoming more careless now, Blossom zigzags down a street, leaving a canyon-sized streak behind her. The scene briefly shifts to Buttercup, who has chosen to flee by flying. At a three-way intersection, Buttercup turns left, and the rampaging Blossom just passes her on the straightaway. Turning back o.c., she pummels her way back down Buttercups path. Following Blossom fixedly behind again, she pursues her flying sister down several twisting streets. Inside a car, a tall thin long-haired young male driver and his shorter, fatter black-haired male friend cry out as the two girls zoom out right in front of them and into busy traffic. (Their appearance could be a reference to Jay and Silent Bob, makers of and actors in such fine titles as Clerks and Mallrats) The driver brakes hard and jerks left, ramming into a large store windowpane. Destroying several more cars, Blossom admires her handiwork, then gasps as she looks forward and notices the traffic jam in front of her. She narrowly zigs between the car lanes, and up onto the side of the adjacent buildings, leaving a similar gouging pattern behind her. The view adjusts sideways, as Blossom runs parallel to the ground across the buildings. Bubbles, for her part, seems to be enjoying this immensely, eyes closed and arms outstretched as she lets out a girlish whee! Blossom sees her fly by in the opposite direction, and returning to ground again, she briefly stops at a street corner before returning alternately to the buildings and ground. Now on her blonde sisters tracks, she pursues the unseen Bubbles down several more streets. Something catches her attention, and she stops, looking upwards with a gasp. The camera focuses in on her head. Her pupils contract rapidly, with a sound similar to a lens instrument focusing in on a distant object. It’s a large glass dome ball atop a building, similar in form to a disco all. Seeing Bubbles trail in its reflective surface, Blossom zooms in closer and closer to calculate her sisters location.]

Blossom:
Subway, huh?

[She eyes re-dilate, and she scopes the nearest subway entrance, and she darts down the tunnel in spiral fashion, leaving her customary trail. Bubbles is still blissfully unaware of her would-be captor, continuing to fly without heed to direction. Blossom exits the subway, and stands confidently at its exit. Bubbles gasps, suddenly aware of her sisters plot, and hitting the pavement, grinds to a halt mere inches from her sister.]

Blossom:
Tag! You’re it!

[She flies off slowly, an air of smugness written all over her as she blows a raspberry at Bubbles, who for her part takes this in for a moment, then looks quite cross, bursting upwards at high velocity and leaving a massive crater behind her. The debris hits several buildings, and narrowly misses the Professors car. He gasps as he spots the girls.]

Professor:
There they go….

[Before he can finish, he hits the crater left by Bubbles, and his car does a complete back flip with a perfect landing. The red ball hits his car again.]

Blossom:
Watch out, here she comes!

[Bubbles is now the pursuer. Narrowly missing her two flying sisters, she backpedals by pushing off of the glass globe, which we can now clearly see is the logo of Olive Corp. The impact shatters the narrow base, and the sphere rolls off the building top. As pedestrians scream in horror, the globe smashes into a street way and starts rolling downwards, the surroundings mirrored in its surface. It hits a building at a street corner, and turns onto another road, smashing stores left and right as it bumps back-and-forth down the street. A distant shot shows the girls continuing to flee from Bubbles, smashing into various buildings along the way. As they head towards ground, the force of one impact actually causes the road to curl upwards, sending cars hurling upwards as the wave of asphalt hits them. Buttercup, stationary, pops her head out from behind a corner building, laughing to herself for giving her sisters the slip.]

Buttercup:
Hah, suckers!

[The road wave reaches Buttercup, and she is sent spinning vertically into the air, with a blank expression on her face. Bubbles zooms up to her and tags her just at the height of her climb.]

Bubbles:
Tag, you’re it!

[The scene cuts to inside a rather swank looking home high above the city, where a smooth-talking gentleman is wooing a young lady. A car is seeing hurtling towards the rooms full-wall windows.]

Smooth Man:
You know, I’ve got a nice car.

[The scene cuts away right before the car hits, and from down below, the Professor looks upwards at the high-story impact, as glass rains down on his car. He spies the girls, finally stopped, high in the air in a circle.]

Professor:
Huh?

Bubbles & Blossom: Tag, you’re it! (tagging Buttercup)

Buttercup:
Hey!

[The two girls disappear behind a post-modern style building, and Buttercup, looking left and right, gives a banshee scream as she angrily realizes shes lost them. Tired of playing around, she smashes a beeline right through several buildings. Blossom and Bubbles are standing calmly above a building similar to the Seattle Space Needle.]

Blossom:
She’ll never find us up here!

[Buttercup smashes through several more buildings in a fury of anger.]

Blossom:
Do you hear something?

[The pursuer smashes through a sign labeled gas, which for some reason, is actually filled with a flammable substance. She zooms forward, trailing the edge of the giant fireball billowing out behind her.]

Blossom & Bubbles: Whoa! Run!

[As the two anxiously flee, Buttercup zooms behind them and taps them both. Their forms are silhouetted behind the massive fireball emanating in the background.]

Buttercup:
Tag, you’re both it!

[The three stop, and argue as a fire rages on behind them.]

Blossom:
Hey! We can’t both be it!

Buttercup:
Why not?

Bubbles:
(touching Blossom) Tag!

Blossom:
What? I can’t be it twice!

Bubbles:
Why not?

Blossom:
Okay then Tag! Now you guys are it!

Buttercup:
(to Bubbles) Tag!

Bubbles:
(to the other two) Tag!

Buttercup:
Hey, no tagbacks! (to Blossom) Tag!
