Later, that night was really scary and unforgettable to a lot of citizens. Kenny trudged along and knocked on the Utonium door. He then looked over his shoulder as the Professor was coming home right now after finally collecting the girls.

"Kenny, what a surprise!" the Professor looked at the boy.

"Hey, Professor..." Kenny said softly.

"What's wrong?"

Kenny looked to see the little girls could probably hear him. "I-I'll tell you later..."

"Okay, Kenny, you can help me get the girls to bed." the Professor said softly, then opened his front door which made the girls zip inside and running and flying around, still playing their innocent game which cost some people their lives. "Okay girls, girls? It's almost bedtime, okay? Girls?"

"Come on, Professor, you're it!" Blossom beamed, unaware of the trouble that she and the others caused in Townsville. "You gotta catch us!"

Kenny shrugged with a sad smile. "It's the only way."

"Yes, I suppose I do, don't I?" the Professor hung his head, then went up the stairs as the girls flew around. He reached and successfully captured Bubbles. "Gotcha, ya little bunny!"

"One down, two more to go." Kenny said as he would try to catch Blossom or Buttercup now.

The Professor leaned, held out his hand and Buttercup flew right to it.

"Help, I got gotted!" Buttercup cried in fake dismay. "Blossom, watch out!"

"You're the sole survivor!" Bubbles added, sounding like she admired the girl's purpose.

"No way, Professor and Kenny," Blossom hopped down to the couch like a skipping stone across the pond. "Can't catch me!"

"Oh, yes, he can," Kenny told the leader girl. "Blossom, the game is over and your sisters are already up here, so I suggest you come on up too and get ready for bed."

Blossom looked sad, but then flew up slowly, allowing the Professor to catch her. The girls giggled as they were together and the Professor was taking them to bed.

"Be with you in a bit, Kenny." the Professor told the boy.

Kenny nodded, then sat on the couch and sighed again. He looked over to a coffee table and saw some framed photographs. Before the girls were born. One was the Professor's niece, Rebecca as a ballerina. Another one was the Professor, younger, and holding a 'World's Greatest Dad' coffee mug. Kenny grew very sentimental over the last one. Kenny was new in town in second grade and Sakura became fast friends with him despite him being a boy and her being a girl and at that age was odd.

The Professor came downstairs after sending his daughters to bed. "So, Kenny, what's going on? Aren't your parents worried about you?"

Kenny looked at him, then looked away distantly. "I'm afraid that I'll never need to worry about or them worry about me ever again, Professor..."

"Why? What happened?"

Kenny bowed his head. "The girls struck my house... Everything was destroyed. The power was out, the television was nearly damaged beyond repair, the stairs were completely destroyed... My parents were actually home then."

The Professor cupped his mouth. "Are they hurt?"

"Worse."

"You mean... Your parents are-"

Kenny nodded softly.

"Oh, K-Kenny, I'm so sorry..." the Professor said, his voice nearly cracking from the sadness of that news.

"It's alright..." Kenny blinked, then his voice started to get small as well.

"Would you like to stay here for the night?"

"What choice do I have...?"

The Professor looked at him, then remembered he wanted to talk with the girls before they would fall asleep. He then looked at the girls' bedroom, then back at him. "Would you like to speak with the girls? I'm worried their powers might get out of hand."

Kenny heaved a sharp sigh. "Okay..." he then slowly walked up the stairs.

"Tell them about their powers and using them around other people, please. It's okay, Kenny..." the Professor said softly, then decided to make the couch up into a bed for the poor, now orphaned boy.

Kenny came into the bedroom of the girls as they were now tucked in and in their night dresses.

"Kenny, what are you still doing here?" Buttercup asked.

"I just wanted to talk with you," Kenny sat on the edge of their bed. "It's your superpowers... I'm not sure how to say this, but I don't think you should use them in public anymore."

"Why?" the girls asked the older boy.

"Well, I know how special you guys are, even the Professor does, trust me, I think your powers are cool," Kenny said, even if the girls had unintentionally caused his parents to die from the destruction of his former house, but he wasn't going to say that to them to scare them. "You should still use your powers in the house around me or the Professor, but out in Townsville, people don't really understand how special you really are."

"Don't they like us, Kenny?" Bubbles asked, shyly.

"Well, girls, I was always told that a lot of people are scared of things they don't understand us, especially if something is mysterious in the least," Kenny continued. "Sometimes it makes them angry."

"That's silly!" Blossom said.

"Just give time for Townsville to accept how special you are," Kenny advised. "I love guys a lot, you're like little sisters to me, or kind of nieces since Sakura was always like a sister to me. You should listen to me or your father and not care about what other people think, they don't do it often. I believe you three have pure and good hearts."

"What do you mean, Kenny?" Blossom asked sweetly.

"You three may be too young to have extreme powers like these, I mean, I've always seen stuff like this in Freedom Gal or Spore, but you might save the world someday. Who knows? Maybe you'll become Townsville's newest heroes by using your powers, not just laser eyes, or super strength, or flying, but the power to believe in yourselves. I know you can do it..."

The girls looked at Kenny sleepily and happily. He had very good motivating skills.

"I better get to bed myself, I'll see you girls in the morning, okay?" Kenny smiled at them as they were getting tired from their big day in school for the first time.

"Okay, good night, Kenny." the girls said together.

Kenny smiled at them. He then noticed that the octopus doll that Bubbles was very fond of had dropped on the floor. He then picked it up and allowed the blonde girl to scoop it and cuddle with it as they all fell asleep.

Kenny came back downstairs and yawned a bit.

"Hello, Kenny, how did it go?" the Professor asked as he laid out spare pajamas for the boy to borrow.

"I think they're gonna be fine," Kenny said softly, rubbing his eyes as he was exhausted and depressed. "Oh, hey, thanks." he saw the couch bed and pajamas.

"Of course, do you need anything? Warm milk? Maybe a glass of water?"

"No thanks, but thanks for letting me stay here."

"Sure, Kenny, you've been through so much today and I'm sorry you had to endure it. I'm sure the girls didn't mean it."

"Oh, those girls are no trouble at all," Kenny got settled into his new bed and pajamas for the evening and possibly from now on. "You should have Saku or Becca meet them sometime."

"Oh, you know Rebecca?"

"Not really... I heard Jojo liked her though while I was in summer camp during her visit."

"Yes, I suppose so... I wonder where Jojo is... I hope he's alright."

"Maybe he's doing some sight-seeing?" Kenny turned over as the Professor was going upstairs to his bedroom to retire for the evening. "Maybe he's met some friendly gorillas or baboons or something."

The Professor shrugged. "Well, good night, Kenny." he turned out the downstairs light.

Kenny yawned as he bundled down under the covers. "Good night, Professor..." he said softly, then quickly fell asleep.

The next morning came very quick. Kenny was about to get ready for school, but he was told his would be closed for the day due to the damage. However, for some reason, the kindergarten school-house would be open for classes. Kenny sat up in the couch bed as the Professor went to the front door with the girls waiting beside him.

"Kenny, why don't you get some sleep?" the Professor told the boy, it would be good for him to have a day off from school anyway. "You've had a rough day."

"You sure you don't want me to take the girls to school?" Kenny asked, groggily.

"Sleep, Kenny, you really need it."

Kenny nodded, then flopped back into the couch bed.

"It's too bad Kenny has to miss school, now he can't play with his friends." Blossom sighed.

"Yeah, or make crayon 'drawrings'!" Bubbles added.

"Or play tag!" Buttercup finished.

The Professor shushed them as he took them out to his car. "Kenny needs to sleep, girls... He's had a rough day yesterday..."

Kenny fell back asleep as soon as the door closed and the Professor drove to Pokey Oaks Kindergarten.

Later, Kenny eventually woke up and started his day as it was getting close to the afternoon. He decided to have a little snack on a sandwich he packed in his backpack and washed it down with some milk. The Professor was lounging on the couch as soon as he got back home and it would soon be time to pick up the girls from school and give them their lunch.

"Oh, almost time to pick up the girls, wanna come, Kenny?" the Professor piped, putting down the newspaper. Kind of odd he was reading it when the article read: Freaky Bug-Eyed Weirdo Girls Broke Everything. The girls were on the front page, but he didn't seem to mind or care.

Kenny shrugged. "I guess so..." he had a soft smile.

The Professor went to the door with his keys to lock the front door until he would come back.

"Oh, wait, I made something for the girls when I was up late." Kenny said, then rushed back inside.

"Okay, Kenny, take your time." the Professor told him, then went on ahead to start the car.

Kenny rushed back inside the Utonium house. He then grabbed his backpack, then came back out as there was an angry crowd of townspeople along with the Mayor and Ms. Bellum.

"Hey, what's going on!?" Kenny looked surprised.

"Kenny, they're arresting me!" the Professor cried.

"You guys can't do this!" Kenny protested. "He has to pick up the girls from school!"

"I understand, little boy, but the 'professor' needs to answer a few questions, DOWNTOWN..." Ms. Bellum said, sounding not interested in what the boy had to say.

"He's a good father, he didn't mean for that mess to happen yesterday!"

"Uh-huh, why don't you run along now?"

"But!"

"Mayor...? This delinquent won't stop harassing me..."

"Get 'em, boys!" the Mayor snapped to the cops with him.

Some guards and a couple of police officers cornered Kenny. One officer had a taser. Kenny gulped, then tried to escape. He broke out of the crowd and ran down the street.

"Don't worry, Professor, I'll get you out of this!" Kenny called down the street, as he kept running.
