“WHAT?!” The trio screamed at their Simian father
“I said, that I Mojo Jojo who has to repeat himself, have came to terms and decided upon us four as a family leaving Townsville.” The boys honestly couldn’t believe what they were hearing.
“What about ruling the world??” Brick questioned
“Yeah WE were supposed to rule together!” Boomer yelled
“ And how are we going to crush those annoying puffs if were gone!” Butch punched his hand this had to be a dream.
“My sons. I Mojo Jojo just do not have the thirst for world domination as I did many years ago. Your Father grows weary of this back and forth. Your Father. Mojo Jojo doesn’t even know who Mojo Jojo anymore.” Mojo stared into the boys and saw the hurt in them but knew this was the best.
“Who are you!! You’re not the real Mojo! Mojo would never give up like this!” Butch bellowed
“Tell me son. Who is Mojo Jojo.” Mojo waited as neither of his children could truly answer.
“ Mojo you can’t just…” Brick was cut off by Mojo
“That is the last I want to hear of it. We will be moving next week.” The boys held their heads down but Brick stared at his “Dad” and..
“Fine..”
“Wait what?!” Butch couldn’t believe it.
“Dad is right. He has the right to not want to be seen as a criminal anymore….How Long Mojo?”
“Depending on the circumstances we can return at the end of your Sophomore year.” The boys were technically only in the 8 grade. After many years of rivalry in Elementary and pretty much all of Jr high maybe this is what they needed..a break.
“Alright. Sophomore year.” Brick complied and his brothers nodded in agreement.
“We’re with you Pops. All the way.” Boomer finished off.
Things were changing for the better.

Present Day
That day seemed like forever ago. Finding a quiet place didn’t take the Jojo’s too long especially after being thrown out of Citysville barely 3 days later (apparently they didn’t take too well to supers.) Ultimately they settled in a quiet area called Tremors, a small town on the outskirts of Cali with not too many people familiar with “their kind” but the folks eventually got used to them. They boys only used their powers when necessary and Mojo eventually got into the naturalist part of science. The boys thought this would be their forever home and they were content with that…until A few days ago an offer from an old colleague came to Mojo to return to Townsville to help with some research, Mojo would get a new lab, new home and get paid out of pocket for just being in his Lab. He was hesitant at first but his sons had his back and now they were heading back to where it all began…in the back of a FBI Van. After hours of uncomfortable seating the Van finally stopped at Townsville Hall, The boys and Mojo all piled out in hand cuffs and were directed to the Mayors office.
“ Ah! Mojo Good to see you!”
“Yes hello Mayor.”
“Good evening Mr. Mojo.”
“A Good Evening to you Miss Bellum.” Miss Bellum undid their cuffs and they rubbed their wrists.
“Such a warm welcome back.” Butch grunted jokingly
“Sorry but we had to be cautious due to you four being former criminals.”
“Ah yes Four, Mojo mind introducing your…Who are these boys?”
“My sons The-“
“RowdyRuff Boys Mayor.” Miss Bellum continued with a sigh. She took a good look at the boys though they were only 17 they definitely grown a lot. Brick was 5’9 his hair flowed and resembled wine as it touched his shoulders in a low ponytail. He was dressed in dark jeans, a loose burgundy flannel that was undone a few at the top with black converses. He still wore his signature hat but also thin, metal rimmed glasses. His left ear was adorned with a cross earring.
Boomer looked about 5’7-5’8 and his hair grew out pass his ears, his was definitely the curliest out of his brothers. His hair was pulled in a half up half down style and both of his ears were pierced with small silver hoops. He had a windbreaker over a dark grey shirt ,black chino pants and vans. He wore three rope bracelets on his left arms that were in their colors.
Butch was the one with the most changes since he was the tallest at a whopping 6’1. His head was shaved but the top was slightly wavy but slicked back out of his face. He had small plugs and 3 other piercings going up both ears. He dressed himself in a dark muscle tee thats definitely seen a lot of love, sage green jeans and combat boots.
“Did you miss us Miss Bellum” Butch grinned, sly as always with this one.
“Miss you three terrorizing the city No Thank you.” Miss Bellum chuckled but regained her professionalism and got back to business.
“So Mojo I hear an old friend of yours requested you back with a job correct?”
“Yes that is correct. At one of Townsville famous robotics Laboratories.”
“Yes according to The boss at the Alien Defense labs it was all expense paid with housing included.” Miss Bellum went to her desk and retrieved some papers.
“What’s this.” Brick took a sheet and so did everyone else.
“This is a contract from the city. About 2 years ago Mojo a lot of the villains took your lead and decided to step down so we formulated a Peace Treaty with..Most Villains and Monsters under the jurisdiction of Monster Island.”
“What do you mean by Most?” Boomer had to ask
“…unfortunately with HIM being the entity that he is he was the only who did not sign. Along with the Morebucks who left shortly after you three.” The mention of that name made the boys blood run cold..another reason Mojo wanted out was to finally sever soul ties between HIM and Us for good.
“Alright so what all does this treaty do?” Brick continued
“The treaty simple states that those who oppose the treaty will be sent to Life in Our Super Security Prison on the Old Monster Island.”
“So what there’s like no crime anymore.” Butch commented
“Not necessarily. Like I stated most monsters aren’t under the jurisdiction of Monster Island and we still have those wannabes that want live up to a reputation but our special X-Forces take care of everything these days, but if things get too serious we still phone in the Powerpuff Girls.”
“Ah yes The girls! I sure hope they’re doing well.” The Mayor chimed in
“So Miss Bellum, with this contract you are stating that I Mojo and my sons The RowdyRuff Boys will have to sign these contracts as a seal of approval to move back to Townsville and to show we have truly left behind our past of crimes.”
“Yes that is correct.” Mojo and the boys sign the contracts and handed them back to Miss Bellum.
“Thank you kindly. With this you boys also agreed to go back to the public school system.”
“Yep.” Brick answered
“I hope you don’t mind being dropped into the middle of the school year.”
“We’re caught up with most things I’m sure we’ll do fine.”
“Wonderful. Well with that Welcome back to Townsville gentlemen.” Miss Bellum and the Mayor escorted they family out to the van that will be taking them to their new home.
“We’ll be seeing you soon.” Miss Bellum waved Goodbye.
“Goodbye Mojo! Goodbye Boys..Ah such respectable young lads..who were they again?”
Miss Bellum let out a sigh..

After a few hours the van pulled into a driveway of a modernized Tuscan Cottage villa with a separate Laboratory towards the back. Three moving vans were already there unloading things into the house. Mojo stared in awe.
“Sweet..” The trio said in union. They parked and all hopped out to gawk at their new home, Mojo paid the driver and came next to his sons.
“My boys this is our new home.”
“Sweet pad.” Boomer grinned
“Well you three go ahead pick your rooms, Mojo doesn’t care how you decide just do not destroy the house. Mojo will go and observe his new Laboratory.” The boys immediately raced into the house but first stopped to admire the interior. The living room was huge with a 70 inch Flat screen already mounted. The kitchen was a Mediterranean villa style with double islands, a full Fram sink and glass top stove. The boys were excited as they headed upstairs towards the three other rooms. The first room had a full bathroom with a couch near two French windows.
“Mine.” The boys said in union
“I’m the leader so I get first dibs.”
“Mojo said anything goes wanna fight for it.” Butch ginned
“He also said NOT to destroy the house.”
“AND we WONT lets take it outside.”
“Fine.” The three went back outside, Butch got into his stance eagerly as Brick only stood waiting.
“1”
“2..”
“3-“ Brick zipped back into the house, into the room and locked the door. Boomer and Butch groaned and went after him. Butch got a firm grip on the handle but hesitated.
“I don’t think ‘daddy’ would be too happy with you ripping our new door off its hinges now would he Butch?” Brick laughed as his brothers had to admit defeat. They walked to the next bedroom that had another full bath, this room had two steps that led to a dip area on the floor towards the back of the room.
“Hello indoor gym area!” Butch grinned, he suddenly felt a tug on his shirt.
“What if I wanted this room??” Boomer questioned
“We can fight about it little bro.” Boomer let go he seriously wasn’t in the mood so he rolled his eyes and walked to the last room. There was a bathroom next to it so there was no bathroom inside for sure but when he walked in abruptly to his left was a mini stage. He went further in and opened the closet it was a full walk in closet.
“I can work with this.” Boomer smiled.

The movers finally got the last few boxes in, they boys told them they could do the rest. After an hour of placing boxes in their correct places the boys took a break to chow down on some pizza Mojo ordered for them.
“Mojo still in the Lab?” Butch asked
“Yeah I dropped off his Pizza he said thanks and went back to work.” Brick retorted as he ate another slice.
“Can’t say I blame him it is a nice Lab.” Boomer commented after going for his fourth slice.
“And a nice place. Can’t wait to relax in this place.” Butch awed through a mouth full of pizza.
“Ugh swallow first, we got a lot of unpacking to do so there wont be much relaxing for a while especially since we go back to school on Monday.” Brick grunted, Butch swallowed, groaned and rolled his eyes.
“Way to be a kill joy Red riding hood.”
“Someone’s grumpy.” Boomer snickered
“I just don’t see why we can’t stay home schooled” Butch Moaned
“Mojo’s gonna be swamped with research so he wont have the time, that’s the whole reason we agreed on going back to the public school system.”
“Yeah yeah but why Monday..Cut a brother some slack.”
“I second that. And why do they have to announce our arrival at a school assembly not like were famous..yet.” Boomer laughed at the end.
“I’m not disagreeing this sucks but we promised so that Mojo can focus on his work. We’ve changed so lets show them how much. Plus if anyone decides to give us a hard time..” Brick eyed his brothers then grinned
“We’ll just give them a RowdyRuff welcome.” The boys all grinned in agreement
“What can I say boys..Old habits die hard.” Brick and his brothers chuckled maniacally as they finished off their pizza. Butch got up and went over to their tv in the living room, the only thing they really set up was there TS5 Console.
“Now that were full of energy who wants to lose at Bone Crusher. Loser has to help Mojo set up the rest of the Lab.” Butch waved two other controllers in the air.
“Your on.” Boomer hopped up
“Pfft prepare to lose.” Brick grabbed the last controller.
“Game on.” Butch grinned
