Here's Chapter One, uninterrupted: One clear day, the Powerpuff Girls were playing in the park after a long day of school. Everybody at the park was having fun, except one little boy. He kept on staring out in the distance, away from Megaville. Bubbles noticed this and walked up to him. "So, what cha' lookin' at?" asked Bubbles. "The dark shadow," answered the boy, not looking at her. Bubbles looked to where the boy was facing. Off in the distance, she could see a dark shape slowly moving closer, looming in the sky like an ominous dark figure. Bubbles quickly alerted her sisters, and the three immediately flew towards it to investigate. The Powerpuff Girls flew closer and closer to the object in question. Once they got close enough, they saw it was some sort of silver flying skyscraper. One of the inhabitants of the syscraper saw the girls and alerted his boss. "Uh, boss?" "Yes?" asked his leader. "There are three little flying girls heading towards us." "Yeah, and?" "Well, shouldn't we shoot them down or something?" "Why? They're just little girls. Just ignore them. We need to find a place to land." "Okay... But I have a bad feeling about those girls," he said to himself. The skyscraper kept on moving, ignoring the girls. They followed it to the mountains, where it landed. The girls hovered out of sight enough to see the syscraper, but not to be seen themselves. Two automatic doors opened, and two figures stepped out. The two looked similar in build, each one little over four feet tall, and each one had a perfectly circular head. One of them was dressed in silver metallic armor, with a large gun on his back. The other was dressed in a black ninja suit with two katana blades under his red cape. "Well, Ling," said the one with the gun, "we're here." "Yes, Max," started the other. "Now it's time to see if this so called 'Megaville' has what we want." Max turned his head. "Boss..." "Yes?" "Those girls are here. They're spying on us from behind that mountain." He pointed towards the girls. "Let them spy. I don't really care. Let's just get a scope on this place, insider style. Got the holos?" "Yes." Max brought out two watches from the building. He kept one and gave the other to his boss. Max turned his on and a holo of a tall, black haired man in street clothes engulfed him. Ling turned on his and he instantly became a bald man with a medium build, wearing a business suit. Ling beckoned to the girls. Not sure what to make of the situation yet, the girls flew down to them, but at enough of a distance to evade any random assault from the two figures. "Um..Excuse me.." Ling started, in a fake tone of kindness. "We are new here, and we need to find the Megaville elementary. We are new teachers." Buttercup was suspicious. "But why do you have holograms to disguise yourselves with?" she asked. Max looked at Ling. He always had answers. "Simple," Ling answered. "Our species is extremely ugly, and we do not want to scare our future students." "Oh... I guess we could take you there, then..." The Powerpuff girls led Max and Ling to their school, currently fooled by Ling's ersatz kindness. Unbeknowest to the girls, these two were here to liberate all of of the riches from Megaville. Ten minutes later, the girls and the two men arrived at the Megaville elementary. The girls left them there and they flew back towards the park to play some more. The two disguised men made their way towards the principal's office. On their way, they passed Sensei Jack, the school's gym teacher. He stopped them and inquired about their purpose at the school. He had never seen them before. Ling brought up his fabricated "teaching" story, and Jack let them pass, even though he and Ling were secretly glaring daggers at each other. Ling and Max reported to the principal's office, Ling making himself a history teacher, and making Max another gym teacher. The principal, fooled to a fault, let them begin that Monday. Two days passed, and Monday came. The two newcomers had explored the city during the weekend, making note of various banks and jewlerey stores. Now, they had to teach a bunch of first graders. They made their way towards the school, but a crowd had gathered in the street, blocking their path. They were surrounding a large lizard-like creature who had apparently fell from the sky. Apparently, no one noticed the spaceship hovering high in the sky that he had fell from. Ling and Max made their way to the front of the crowd, pushing and shoving people out of their way. They could not be late for class. They passed the lizard, but Max glanced at it and stopped, grabbing his boss. "What is it?" asked Ling as he turned around. "What do you- Oh. Hell no," he said as he saw the creature. The creature looked back at them, but it did not recognize Ling and Max, thanks to their holographic disguises. LIng and Max quickly made their way through the crowd, to get out of the sight of the creature. "How did he find us?" asked Max, referring to the lizard. "I don't know... But as of now he doesn't recognize us. Let's keep it that way." The two made their way to the school. The lizard-like creature in the middle of the street was actually a dinosaur, a velociraptor, from Ling's and Max's homeworld. It's name was Velociraptor Unknown, and he was Ling's arch nemesis. Somehow he had ended up in Megaville at the same time as the false teachers. The Powerpuff Girls saw the same crowd of people on their way to school, and they flew down to investigate. "Look!" exclaimed Bubbles. "It's a cute lizard! Let's say hi!" She flew closer to Velociraptor. "Wait, Bubbles!" started Blossom. "It could be mean! It might hurt you!" But it was too late. Bubbles had already flew down to greet Velociraptor. "Hi!" "Um..Hi. Can you tell me where I am?" asked Velociraptor. "You're in Megaville! I'm Bubbles. Nice to meet you." "Good. I'm supposed to be here as an exchange student. Nice to meet you too. My name is Velociraptor." Bubbles beckoned to her sisters. "It's okay! The cute dinosaur is nice!" Blossom and Buttercup flew down. Buttercup saterd at Velociraptor. "I don't trust it," said Buttercup. "It looks like one of the Gangreen Gang, or one of Mojo's crazy creations." She glared at Velociraptor. "Do you know Mojo Jojo?" she asked. "Buttercup, leave it alone!" berated Blossom. She turned back to Velociraptor "Can we help you?" "Yeah. Could you fly me back into my space ship? It's about fifty feet above here." So, the girls flew Velociraptor back to his ship, and then bolted off to school. Three minutes later, history class started. Ling had walked in while most of his class was carousing and acting out of hand. Ling silently walked to the chalkboard, grabbed the yardstick and ran its metal edge down the chalkboard, making such an atrocious noise to make the kids shut up. "Hello, class," Ling said as he looked at his students. "I am your new teacher, Marcus Valentine. Your previous teacher is... indisposed... as of the moment." A student shot up his hand. "Yes?" Ling adressed the child. "Can I use the restroom?" the student asked. "I don't know, can you?" "Grr.. May I use the restroom?" "That's better." "So, may I?" "No. That is what the breaks between classes are for. Hold it." The boy slumped into his seat. "Okay, now class, it is time to learn."

Meanwhile, Jack was giving Max a hard time during gym. He had challeneged his new "partner" to various physical tasks, such as weight lifting, push-ups and rope climbing. Max had been able to do all of them, but his armor was starting to bear its weight, and Max was getting worn out. After fifty more minutes of constant challenges, the bell ring for lunch, and Max decided to rendevous with Ling.
