""With life, there is no 'tomorrow morning'. When night arrives, it all ends." She looked down at her hands, holding them up in front of her, "Except for me. Thanks to, I have been given another morning…and I know the truth.""

A Powerpuff Girls Dark Fic written back in 2001 by Mark J. "Parsec" Hadley. Despite being only four chapters long, it's very memorable and absolutely chilling.

The basic premise is that Mojo Jojo, fed up with always losing, ambushes the Powerpuffs outside their own house with his Robo Jojo. He proves to be Not So Harmless this time, and actually succeeds in killing

Mojo Jojo is beaten to a pulp and thrown into jail, leaving the survivors to deal with the death. The Professor, however, figures out a way to bring  back...but at what cost?
