Aku: You three are ready. (Cackles menacingly.) Such fine specimens you are. You have that blackness in your souls that entices me. With that blackness, is that strength you three bear in combat. Will you pledge your loyalty to me your Master of Darkness and Shogun of Sorrow? Butch: Yes, my lord. We pledge our allegiance to you and no one else. Aku: What is your destiny? Boomer: We will honor you and serve your domain with all that we have. Aku: Yes! And what have I taught you three? Blossom: Anyone who dares defile your realm shall be killed by our own hands and their corpses will be given to you to feast on. Aku: Will you stay with me and fight by my side? Butch, Boomer, and Blossom: Yes, my lord. Aku: Will you obey my every command? Butch, Boomer, and Blossom: We will, my lord. Aku: Butch, Boomer, will you bring your most beloved brother Brick and take out his heart, lungs, and liver as a sacrifice for me? (Butch twitches, as he prepares his signature Tornado Punch. While Boomer has his hands charged with raw energy.) Butch: We thought you’d never ask. I would gladly have the privilege of bringing my dearest brother to you. It would mean the world to him. (Cackles wickedly.) Boomer: You are not the only one, Butch. You may have shown your fraternal love and kindness to him, but I for one cannot wait to see him squirm like the vermin he really is. I will gladly kill him. Aku: Excellent! And Blossom, if you are successful in not only bringing Brick and your sisters as my sacrificial lambs, will you, Boomer, and Butch stay and rule with me? Blossom: I thought you would never ask, my lord. My husband, my lover, and I will be glad to rule side by side with you. Butch and Boomer: Affirmative. Aku: Splendid! The time has come. Go and do my bidding! Butch, Boomer, and Blossom: Yes, my lord! (As Butch, Boomer, and Blossom fly away at the speed of light, Aku remains and laughs loudly and menacingly.) This piece of Aku, Butch, Boomer, and Blossom or Akublossutchoomer fanart, which is my contest entry for Powerpuff-Nation’s 2018 Halloween contest, is dedicated to Sheila aka syahilla, Phoebe Burick aka TheRandomCat88, Marshy aka Smol-Marshmallow, Ryan R. aka Rayryan90, Khalil aka sharkkson, and Icebluelink who celebrated their birthdays several days ago. So, Sheila, Phoebe, Marshy, Ryan, Khalil, and Icebluelink, I hope you guys had amazing, awesome, fantastic, and thrilling birthdays. I wish you a lot of love, happiness, joy, serenity, and greatness in everything you do as artists and as people. I would also love to dedicate this to all of the Blossutch, Blossoomer, and AkuBloss shippers out there and even those who ship Aku with both Butch and Boomer as a BroTP. I hope you all enjoy this piece of work I have for you. Man, this has been in the making for the longest time. I have been playing with the idea of putting in the legendary, demonic villain Aku from Samurai Jack, which is pretty much the best Cartoon Network show I have ever seen in my entire life, in my Team Xtreme headcanon. With this character, I also thought it would be fun to add an element of a dark prophecy looming over three of my most favorite characters Butch, Boomer, and Blossom, which in turn is my OT3 for life. When mixing these elements together, something extraordinary popped up from my brain, especially with all of the times I have rewatched and rewatched my most favorite Teen Titans 2003 episodes featuring Slade and eventually Trigon. Those episodes were “Apprentice Parts 1 and 2” with Robin being Slade’s apprentice, “Aftershock Parts 1 and 2” with Terra being Slade’s apprentice, and “Birthmark” and “The End Parts 1, 2, and 3” with Slade having some connection to Raven’s prophecy and featuring the main big bad Trigon. I am very sure you can see where I am going with this. And yes, it is really enjoyable seeing Butch, Boomer, and Blossom go to the dark, diabolical, demonic side. It makes the plot focused on them thicken. Aku is essentially an amalgamation of Slade and Trigon with a hint of Brother Blood, in my Team Xtreme Headcanon. Aku is not as cool and collected as Slade, but he can surely make one crap his pants off when dealing with him. You will not find me shipping Aku with Blossom romantically. Oh, no. He serves as a sort of dark mentor and grandfather figure to Blossom. He has done his fair share of creeping up to her room and giving her ominous symbols nearly placing a curse on her, thus threatening her with her comrades’ lives if she does not join him in the dark side. For Team Xtreme’s Team Mom that is surely a scary thought. I mean having to be in such a bargain with the devil himself just for the sake of her dear comrades could be a most harrowing choice. It also does not help matters that her darlings for life Butch and Boomer are dragged into this, seeing that they love Blossom with every bit of their being. At least for Aku, the more the merrier. So, he gets to appoint The Baron of Berserk, The Fleet Athlete, and The Commander and the Leader to be his apprentices in order to spare the likes of Brick, Buttercup, and Bubbles being slaughtered by the Shogun of Sorrow. Though, he also wants their blood as well when all is said and done. Now, when it comes to Butch, Boomer, and Blossom, I have this to say about them in this scenario. Each of these three has a bit of Robin, Raven, and Terra in their systems and in their beings. Think about…
