The city of Townsville, a beautiful city were its children spend their days in school so they could learn and be smart to be tomorrow's future.
But speaking of school, today was Friday, and our boys were just happy to pack up their bags as the day was ending !
"Wait, children, before we leave, do you remember what day it is ?" Ms. Keane asked as she smiled at her students before the final bell rang. The children looked up at her, then each other in confusion as they watched the teacher move to a chart attached at the back of the class.
"Today, we'll see who's moving up the chart to the stars !!" Ms. Keane smiled as she pointed at the merit chart where a picture of each child was glued with double-sided tape.
The children, of course, were excited and quickly gathered around her.
"Oh yeah, I'm sure I'll be the Super Star of the month !!" Mitch grinned as he watched Ms.Keane started to count all the good behaviour stars earned by her students during the month. Next to him, Butch huffed and playfully pushed him. "No way ! I'll be the Super Star. You got more time-outs than I can count.."
"Did not !!"
"Did too !!"
"Did NOT !!"
"Did TOO !!"
The best friends started bumping heads as they started arguing of who got up the merit chart. Beside the two, Brick deadpanned while Boomer grinned next to him, amused by their bickering as he held Goatzilla under his arm.
" You guys are idiots. Neither of you will be the Super Star.." Brick huffed as he crossed his arms and rolled his eyes at the two.
" Ah, don't say that, Brick ! I'm sure Mommy will be proud if one of us is the Super Star of the Month !!" Boomer smiled as he put his markers in his backpack and zipped it close.
Not far from them, standing by Ms. Keane's other side, the Powerpuff Girls, was thinking the same as she watched the teacher write on the total score of each student on the board.
"Oh, I wonder who's gonna be the Super Star. I mean, my behaviour has been exemplary this month as always, so of course I'll be it.." Blossom dragged with a confident smile. Of course, being the smarter one and most to follow school rules, the pink Powerpuff thought herself indetronable.
"Yeah, right.." Buttercup rolled her green eyes at her sister while Bubbles kept on staring at the chart.
After a good moment, Ms. Keane stepped back from the board. "Well, children, I've got a nice surprise for you ! I've counted all the merits you've earned this month, and let's say some really improved this month.."
All the children gasped, Butch and Mitch even stopped their bickering as they eagerly looked up at their teacher.
"So..in third place, we have.." Ms. Keane held the suspense and smiled. "Robin !! With 24 merits this month !" The said brunette blushed and smiled as she got her bronze Star ribbon as the others clapped.
"At the second place we have..Pablo !! With a nice 28 merits ! Good job !!" The Latino child grinned as he got his silver Star ribbon of 2nd place, the others clapped and cheered.
"And finally, with an impressive 31 stars this month..the Super Star of this month..is..." Ms. Keane paused, all the children stepping in closer to try to see the chart behind her, but she kept it hidden behind her with a smile.
Sensing the moment approaching, Blossom confidently started to walk forward with a smile as Ms. Keane held up the big golden star ribbon.
" BOOMER !!!"
The gasps that followed were loud, to say the least, especially Blossom, whose jaw literally dropped to the ground that her spot was now taken.
" B..Boomer !?" Blossom gaped like a fish out of water. Ms. Keane nodded excitedly as the pink leader watched the big star being attached to Boomer's shirt.
"Yes, Boomer !! He's the one who got the most stars !!"
The said blonde couldn't believe it himself as he looked down at the star on his chest. " ME !? I'm the Super Star of the month !?" He gasped, then smiled widely as he was practically glowing with pride at the title.
" Yes ! Way to go, Super Star !!" Ms. Keane clapped in delight with a warm smile toward Boomer, who was now swarmed by his happy classmates.
" You really have impressed me this month, sweet boy ! Improving your reading, participating in class, helping your fellow students, and doing tasks in class..you've earned this !" Ms. Keane smiled warmly as she watched the children excitedly congratulate and patting the blonde's back.
" Woah !"
" Way to go, Boomer !!"
" Yay, you're awesome !!"
Boomer practically beamed in pride, hugging Goatzilla tightly as he overwhelmed with happiness. Brick and Butch got to their brother too, practically smiling widely as they stared at the ribbon, too.
" Ha ha, heck yeah !! That's our brother for ya !!" Brick grinned as he playfully elbowed Boomer, who giggled. Butch on the other hand, pouted but was visibly happy too that at least it was his brother and not Mitch or the Powerpuffs who got it this month.
" Good job, man. I admit, respect !" Butch grinned and ruffled the spike blonde hair with a smile. He then turned to Mitch and stuck out his tongue childishly in victory. " Told you you wouldn't get it !!"
Mitch just stuck his tongue back and huffed, pouting and grumbling under his breath about how unfair life was.
" Alright, children, have a great weekend !!" Ms. Keane waved them off as each child took their backpacks and ran out the door.
" Oh, and, Boomer ?" The blue rowdyruff turned back to her with a smile. " Keep up the good work, this is another star to your report !"
Boomer beamed and nodded, and then Brick took hold of his arm with a grin. " Come on, we have to show Momma !!" Butch nodded before the triplets flew out the school with wide smile.
Waiting by her car, Kristina was standing there and checking on her wristwatch when she saw the children run out of school excitedly. Soon enough, her boys were out too, flying to her with visible excitement, which made her confused.
"Boys, what-" She didn't even get a word out that her boys were already talking her ears out.
" Momma, Momma, Momma !! Boomer won !!"
" Yeah, he won, Mama !! He won !! He reached the stars !!"
" Mommy, Mommy, Mommy Mommy !! I'm the Super Star of the Month !! Look, look, look, look !!"
The trio excitedly shouted as they tackled their mother down, basically shoving the blonde brother to her face as he pointed at the ribbon with a wide smile.
Kristina softly pulled them off her face and looked at Boomer, seeing the shining golden ribbon on her baby's shirt that he was proudly showing off.
" What !? My little sapphire, 'Super Star of the Month' !!?" Kristina audibly gasped as she picked the ribbon, looking at it with wide eyes, then looked down at Boomer in disbelief.
The award on her son's chest shone brightly as in glowing with pride, the gold shine glimmered through the reflection of her glasses as she sniffed. The mother smiled as she picked up Boomer, throwing him up and catching him back as he laughed.
" My sweet Boomer, the Super Star !! I'm so, so, so proud of you, sweetheart !!" Kristina squealed and started kissing over his little face, feeling so much joy and pride from the award.
Boomer smiled as he hugged back, wrapping his arms around her neck as he bathed in her affection. Brick and Butch smiled at the scene, floating up to join the hug as their mom hugged them all together in her arms.
" Oh, we have to celebrate this !!" Kristina giggled and practically skipped to her car, setting her boys in the back seat as she buckled their seatbelts each and kissed their cheek, then closed the door.
The boys cheered and smiled as they watched their mother get in the driver seat and checked in the rear-view, her mismatched eyes glancing at them through her glasses with visible happiness. The golden star ribbon sat there proudly on Boomer's shirt as he held Goatzilla to his chest.

Anyway, as the OverKills' car drove away from the school, three super girls joined their parental figure as well. Buttercup and Bubbles were rather fine by the announcement, but Blossom looked like she just couldn't believe it.
" I can't believe it. I lost my title..to Boomer !?" Blossom gaped, looking off like the worst blasphemy just happened in that short life of hers. The pink Powerpuff frowned, crossing her arms as she joined her creator with her sisters.
" What's wrong, Blossom ? Did something happen at school today ?" Professor Utonium asked when he noticed his daughter's sour expression.
Blossom huffed but didn't answer, just floating in the car and sitting down with her schoolbag on her little legs. Buttercup and Bubbles glanced at their sister, the green sister rolling her eyes at the redhead's frown as she got in her seat too.
" Today's the day we got who was the best student of the month.." Buttercup huffed as she buckled up, followed by Bubbles who just held Octi to her side.
" Oh really ? Well, that's great !" Pr. Utonium, not seeing the idea, which seemed to annoy Blossom even more.
" No, it's not great, Professor !! I was dethroned and didn't even get in the top tier this month !!" Blossom whined and huffed as she leaned against the car door with a pout. Bubbles raised a brow at her attitude and glanced at the Professor for his reaction.
" Yeah, Blossom is mad because it was Boomer who's the Super Star of the month and not her." Bubbles clarified with a nod, crossing her legs on the seat. Buttercup huffed as she nodded, crossing her arms.
" Those stupid Rowdyruff Boys are really starting to get on my nerves !! It's like everyone forgot they were villains, now they get merits more than us too !?" Blossom growled in annoyance, Buttercup nodding in agreement next to her with a scoff.
" But you gotta admit..the look on your face was priceless when that blue baby got the ribbon, Bloss." Blossom visibly flushed, and she held back breathing ice in Buttercup's face, just glaring at her darkly.
Professor Utonium raised a brow at his daughters and sweatdropped, though he chose to say nothing for now as he just got in the driver seat.

Kristina was smiling as she watched her three boys licking the desserts she had just bought for them.
Boomer got a nice scoop of cherry ice cream, Brick got a sweet lime sorbet, and Butch a blue raspberry smoothie.
The triplets were now sitting on a bench, right by their mother's side in the park, their small legs kicking in delight at the sweet treat in their hands at the sun setting sun slowly turned the sky to a bright pinkish orange.
" I'm so proud of you, my sweet Boomer. You were such a good boy that you're not the student of the month ! I'm so happy.." Kristina smiled warmly as she leaned over to kiss her son's head.
Boomer looked up and leaned into the kiss with a soft blush, the ice cream a bit smeared over his lips as he smiled.
" I'm just happy that I can make you happy and proud of me, Mommy..."
