I do not own Powerpuff Girls (obviously). Hopefully this fanfiction will go well, and I won't lose inspiration, or will to write/live (too quickly).

In a certain house in Townsville Professor Utonium was mixing a mysterious potion in a cauldron.
'Sugar' he thought while sprinkling some.
'Spice' he threw a bit into the cauldron.
'And everything nice' he added a bucket of various sweets flowers and rainbows, not noticing a tiny speck of pure darkness mixed into the heap.
'This will create a perfect little girl' he thought with joy, while picking up a large spoon.
He started to stir the mixture while humming happily, accidentally breaking a flask full of Chemical X, which flowed into the pot.
An explosion pushed him into the wall, while a bright light outlined the figures of three girls.
Nobody noticed a shadow quietly sneaking out through the open window.
-------------
A boy with silver hair flew out into the night sky, leaving behind a trail of darkness invisible to people on the ground.
Suddenly, he heard a noise in his head and saw a floating translucent screen.

As soon as I was born I felt compelled to leave.
The three bright silhouettes repelled me, almost as if we were magnets with opposite poles.
I flew out of the window, taking a deep breath as I flew into the black sky.
The darkness called to me, and I felt as if it was just another part of my body that I could manipulate freely.
I slowly flew, not knowing what to do without any goal to move towards.
Suddenly I heard a *ding* and saw a translucent screen appear in front of me.
I quickly read the description and the quest, and a smirk crept on my face.
This just got interesting.
--------- Professor Utonium Pov ---------
As I got up after the explosion hit me against the wall, I saw three girls floating above the cauldron, seemingly born from the concoction that I brewed.
After talking a bit I decided to name them Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup.
After showing them their room I went back to clean up the mess. Although I was tired after waking for multiple hours, but leaving the mess for tomorrow didn't seem like a good idea, especially since leaving the residue of Chemical X alone was just asking for another unwarranted mutation.
Slowly scrubbing the floor I felt like the shadows behind the table were particularly deep.
I blinked a few times and the weird sensation was gone. I must be really tired.

As he flew, the silver haired boy kept his attention on the radar, which caused quite a few collisions with birds. The did not bother him, as nothing was more important than doing anything to get rid of incredible boredom he was seemingly born with.
Suddenly the radar's sounds sped up, which caused him to begin floating down, into a dark foggy forest.
If he had a map he would know that he was in Transylvania, home of Dracula, thought it probably wouldn't bother him more than just about anything else.
As the dot on the radar slowly came closer, in the fog slowly rose a medium-sized castle, built by a lake.
The long bridge in front of it led through the lake to the front gate, which further protected the smaller building in the middle.
The dark boy flew over the gate, unbothered by the fortifications clearly meant to stop him.
He didn't spare a second glance even the heavy wooden door, which he blasted through flying at high speed.
'This will need to be fixed' he though, as he slightly regretted acting impulsively 'Or I can just force somebody to do it for me' he added in his head with a sudden idea.
As he flew further suddenly he saw a tall man dressed in black looking at him with anger.
"How dare you invade the home of Dracula!!!" he shouted, as the boy came closer "You will pay for destroying my door!"
"Leave this place and I will let you go" responded the boy "This is my new base"
Dracula, clearly enraged jumped at him with his claws and fangs out. The boy, surprised at his speed dodged and hit him on the side, making him crash into a wall.
Unscathed, but even angrier, The Vampire flew at him again this time assisting himself with magic, and at the same time trying to control the opponent with hypnosis.
The bind worked, which led to the boy getting hit in a face and flying backwards.
Summoning Dracula's shadow while flying backwards, he stopped the opponent in the middle of another leap.
As the fight continued the boy fell behind, as the opponent was very powerful.
The situation was not hopeless though, as he was born with incredible fighting skills and Dracula was leading a peaceful life for decades-no, centuries, on top of not being prepared for the fight at all as well as lack of fresh blood source, or any blood source actually.
They exchanged blows again and again, making the castle tremble from the aftermath of their clash.
Suddenly, just as Drac started to gain bigger advantage, they heard one of the doors opening and a quiet voice of a girl sounded out.
"Dad, what is going on" said Mavis, leaning out from behind the door frame, causing the older vampire to freeze in his tracks.
His face changed from previous fury, to shock and then to worry about his daughter. His opponent's face gave birth to a predatory grin, as he lunges himself towards the girl, at the same time binding her and his opponent with as many shadows as he could possibly muster.
The moment of carelessness made Dracula unable to get rid of his bindings in time, as the boy grabbed his little treasure by the throat.
"Now, you should leave the castle peacefully" said the boy, as the wide grin on his face faded "Or I will crush her throat"
Mavis, realising she gave her father's enemy a chance to gain huge advantage tried shifting into a bat and escaping from the boy's grip.
It was however a mistake, as her small form was even easier to threaten her father with.
"Wait, why do you want my castle?" asked Dracula, worried about his daughter more than about his own wellbeing "We have a lot of precious memories left in here" he added while looking weak.
"I need a big base, and this was the first one I encountered" responded boy, as if it was a matter of fact.
"So you just decided to rob somebody!?" shouted Drac almost flying into rage again, remembering however in time about his daughters safety.
"I need house, so I take it from someone weaker"
"But I'm not weak!!!"
"However you have a weakness" silver-haired boy said while pointing at the little fireball quivering in his grasp "So you lost"
"If you just wanted a castle I can give you a bigger one" said Drac, deciding to stop trying to reason with the cold-blooded beast on the other side "My cousin was killed by some weird yellow henchmen he got somewhere, so his house is just left lying around, since we don't have any use for it."
"Does it have two floors and a basement?" asked the boy not really wanting to continue fighting the strong old vampire, especially since he could get a bigger place.
"Dungeon" said the vampire, slowly calming down, as he saw the glimps of interest in the certainly-not-human's (or so he assumed) eyes.
"Lead the way" said the boy, as he slightly loosened his grip on the opponent's daughter.

Hello everyone 'it's good to be back', as said a certain floating triangle before starting the apocalypse.
I wonder whether people are interested in this idea for a fan-fic? Give me some feedback, so I know whether to continue (it certainly feels very fun to me, but I've been reading on a few different sites, so I can never be sure about the taste here).
If you have any fun ideas let me know too. I have plans for the further parts of this novel, we will see whether I have enough words in my head to write it down though.
Ultimately, reality is an illusion, the universe is a hologram, buy gold, keep having fun and bye!"
