Powered Buttercup didn't even try to deflect it this time. She shot into the air at an angle leading away from the building she had come out of, swinging her hammer down and subsequently missing due to the other girl's momentum. It had done its job, though. There had been no denial about the name aside from the fury over the part she tacked onto the beginning. Which completely confirmed Powered Buttercup's suspicions. Still, she couldn't deny the white light or the references to Chemical X. It was more than possible that she was from an alternate universe rather than a mirror one.
Buttercup had more than a bit of momentum going with her attack. It mean Powered Buttercup had a chance to attack again while the other girl recovered. She shot into the air and stopped just above the top of the building she'd recently crashed into. She brought her hammer down almost as if she were going to hammer the ground, bit it impacted mid air.
"Swing Sonic!"
A burst of green energy flared up from the "impact point" she had hit with her hammer. In a burst of energy it shot directly towards where Buttercup was. It wouldn't be terribly hard to dodge though.
Really though, even Powered Buttercup had to admit this was going nowhere.

"OOOOF!!!!!!!!!"
The attack found it's mark, and Buttercup was sent flying, falling down to the cement, leaving a noticeable crater...
.............................. All was silent until...
"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
With her own primal scream, Buttercup blasted out of the crater, energy taking up her entire arm as she went in for a powerful punch.
-----------------------------------
Meanwhile on the ground, a dimensional portal opened up in a nearby alleyway, like dimensional portals often did on the island. Though it didn't stay long before it dropped off what appeared to be a robot with white armor, wearing a red jumpsuit underneath, and a white armored helmet that almost looked like a Maid's hat, some light green hair sticking out of it.
When she collided with the ground, she was yeowching painfully as she pushed herself onto her feet. "Where... Where in the universe is this?"
One thing Marina Liteyear came to notice was the factor that Professor Theo was nowhere to be found... Guh... Where was that perverted old fart..?
A loud boom caught her attention before she could finish that thought.

Well... she was some alternate version of herself. As she'd just taunted the other teenager moments earlier, she couldn't really expect the fight to end so simply. The girl seemed to have picked up speed again, and while Powered Buttercup was able to deflect part of the attack, some of it slipped past her hammer and hit her in the shoulder. She went shooting into the sky by over twenty feet.
When she reached the apex, she just let herself drop. It looked like the girl was falling out of the sky. She closed her eyes a few feet down, letting the drop occur. The hammer was angled so that it looked to be falling with her due to gravity, not because she was really holding it. It was something called a "feint", and she was hoping to catch the other girl off guard long enough to be able to come out with another attack. She had hear ears open to the situation and was ready to peel away if Buttercup called her bluff. Really, the fact that she'd moved to a more sports like strategy was somewhat of a compliment to her opponent, not that Buttercup would likely realize this.
She was unaware of the new arrival. However, the angle of her fall meant said new arrival would see the girl falling out of the sky.

Buttercup looked up to the Japanese Buttercup, smirking slightly. That looked like that did the trick. Being the toughest fighter didn't mean she was wise on tactics, that's why she often left stuff like that to Blossom.
Back on the ground, Marina was every bit as fooled as Buttercup. "Oh my-!!" That settled it, she needed to get in there, now! Professor Theo could wait. She instantly took off running to find an entrance to the building closest to where those two were fighting, hoping to find an elevator...
What was weird though was the fact that she seemed to be moving much faster then she thought she could run as a human...
Ah, she was probably imagining it, adrenaline and all.
[If you remember from Marina's bio, she was changed into a human as a reward from her first venture. However she was transformed back into a robot upon going through the dimensional rift. Let's just say she hasn't figured out the second part yet.]

Powered Buttercup didn't hear any movement on the way down. Which implied that "Mirror Buttercup" had suddenly learned how to be quiet as a mouse and calm or was staying where she was at. She reached the maximum velocity for her descent about ten feet above the parallel location to Buttercup. She was still a solid five feet away from her. She wasn't quite sure how far she was, but she figured she'd been falling long enough.
She suddenly jerked upright. As she was positioning herself right, she was also beginning a spin. Once more the green cyclone appeared. It was only after it had begun to form that she shouted the attack, and it was possible the wind she was creating would muffle it beyond being heard. Of note, along with the slightly differnet name from before, was that the cyclone was about twice as big and almost twice as fast. There would only be a very tiny window to dodge, and the odds of Buttercup missing it were pretty decent due to the feint.
"Hurricane Lutz II!"
She was going to be dizzy after this, though...

Buttercup's eyes were widened to unbelievable levels. "OH CRAP!!!!!"
WHAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
------------------------------
Marina quickly ran inside the building, finding an elevator not too far away from the door. "Okay, there's an elevator, now I just need to get up to the top floor!"
CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course, this plan was deflated after Buttercup crashed CLEAN THROUGH the elevator room, having been slammed downward by Powered Buttercup's powerful attack. Thankfully since the Elevator was pretty much withoutany cielings except for the Elevator capsule itself, Buttercup went through the building without really hitting too much, and crashed soundly in the basement of the building... ... ...
Before a primal scream sounded, and Buttercup slammed her way back UP the building, leaving gargantuan holes as she passed through each cieling...
Leaving a GAWKING Marina all the while.
"HO-LY..."
-------------------------------
Back at the top, Powered Buttercup likely wasn't surprised to find Buttercup crash back through the building, throwing fists every which way, in her direction, both of them covered with dark green energy. "SUCK FIST!!!!!!!!!"

If anyone wondered if it was possible to wobble and stumble in mid-air, they only had to look up at that point. After the attack sent Buttercup rocketing through the various walls of the building, her Japanese counterpart came out of the spin and managed to do just that. If this were animated, her eyes would have been swirls for a few moments there. It was only when Buttercup came tearing through the roof of the building that Powered Buttercup's eyes cleared up.
She shot up into the air, leaving that familiar green trail. Okay, now this was beginning to get ridiculous. What did she have to do to that girl!? Buttercup came into Powered Buttercup's view just as the girl began moving her fists at lightning speed. The Japanese teenager threw up her hammer in surprise at the fight still left in her counterpart, but she was only able to dodge most of them. One managed to slip past a narrow opening and hit her square in the jaw. Just by the impact alone, Powered Buttercup knew her jaw would probably be shattered had she not been transformed. As it was, a faint bruise was the only effect.
She shot backwards after the attack connected and began waving her hammer around a bit madly. She was glaring, any thoughts of possibly diffusing the situation pretty much gone. The other girl had gotten a hit in and was showing no signs of calming down. It was pretty crazy looking to watch, her hammer a blur as she waved it around the way Buttercup had waved her fists around. She was screaming as she did so, and the words were actually coherent if Buttercup stopped to listen.
"You're the one who laughed at me for my outfit! I'm just defending myself and you're throwing punches! How insane are you, you stupid copycat!?"
......it wasn't like she had a whole lot of room to talk. She looked pretty crazy herself at the moment, and there was almost a literal fire in her eyes. Streams of green light were coming from the end of her hammer, and it might have been pretty had Powered Buttercup not looked so dangerous.

Buttercup was not in the mood for a tude. Heck she wasn't in the mood for much of anything right at this very moment. "COPYCAT?!?!?" She let out a primal scream as she charged forward, Powered Buttercup did the same.
Marina had managed to clear the last stair of the building just previous to the first resounding BOOM. “Wha-?!”
At this point, it almost looked like two distinctly green blurs were streaking through the sky clashing against each other at a break-neck pace. Every few moments or so, one of the green blurs would get sent rocketing downward, only to jet back up and meet the other blur head on. Along with the distinctive ‘CHEEOO!’ sound that came whenever the two blurs zoomed, one could hear barbs, insults, and a various amount of obscenities being thrown out amongst the chaos.
“…. Who… Who ARE THESE KIDS?!?!?” Came an incredulous question from Marina.

This situation could have probably diffused itself a while ago had either of Powered Buttercup's counterparts been there. The same was likely true for the American Buttercup. As it was, it didn't show signs of stopping any time soon. While it was more than likely Buttercup was a bit stronger than her Japanese counterpart, Powered Buttercup's head was a bit more tightly screwed on her shoulders. That was going out the window a bit, but the way the blows had been exchanged up until now meant the girls were more or less evenly matched. One of them would have to stop or go down first. The former was pretty impossible with the flying rage and the latter would probably end in a draw at the rate they were going. Someone really needed to step in at this point.
The clashes were just as Marina was seeing them, too. Rapid blurs of green light, a hit that tended to cause mid-air sparking, one or more of the girls falling and causing more damage, rinse, and repeat. Powered Buttercup actually hadn't had the idea of diffusing the situation miss her. Maybe the copycat calls were unnecessary, maybe if she talked during the fight things could be handled. But that would mean showing ground, letting the other think she was stronger.
Hell if that was going to happen.

It looked like Buttercup was in the same boat as her Japanese counterpart in all honesty; she had not once in her life gave in to some two bit bad-guy, and that was not about to change. If anything, Buttercup was starting to see how evenly matched the two of them were at this point, though with each time she went down, it just seemed to make her adrenaline pump.
The two was just about to clash one more when...
"STOOOOOOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Marina's most popular line as a hero came out as a loud yell, that caught both Powerpuff's attention. If they turned to look, they'd see what looked like a cyborg that almost looked like she was designed to look like a woman dressed in white house maid apparrel.
"You two need to STOP RIGHT NOW! I mean look at the MESS your making!!!"
It was true, really. The city was looking more worse for ware by the second.
Buttercup usually knew when the fun NEEDED to end. But really she wasn't in a consolable state of mind. And it would be a cold day in HELL before she listened to some buket of bolts dressed like a nanny. "YOU STAY OUT OF THIS!!!!!!!"

(OOC: I hope you don't mind me having the attack connect. It doesn't have to do any noticable damage, and I'll be glad to change it if you like. :3)
It indeed caught both of their attentions. Powered Buttercup turned to the side and almost had a mid-air collission with the American teenage. She managed to sharply veer to the side at an angle and came to a stop just past and below where her counterpart was flying. She blinked as she saw the girl, who had some resemblences to Peach. If she hadn't already decided whe was in another world, she would have guessed her to be a creation of Utonium.
When the robot spoke, she looked around the city and sweatdropped. Yeah, they were doing rather the number here, weren't they? This was worse than what she'd done to Professor Utonium's lab that day when she'd been convinced to remain a part of Powerpuff Girls Z. She rubbed under her nose and considered telling the other Buttercup to call it off (they really weren't going anywhere, and in all honesty she was starting to get hungry) when the American girl shouted at the person who'd tried to stop them.
Alright, this did need to end. The digital girl was right. They were doing far too much damage, and Powered Buttercup was finding the enjoyment going away. There was nothing wrong with a good rival, but at this rate people were going to get hurt. She took the distraction Buttercup was having in regards to the android, flew up, and bopped her on the head with the hammer. It wasn't hard or meant to do much damage, just to to get her attention.
"Snap out of it! You're obviously not a monster, and I'm not letting any parallel reality version of myself destroy an entire city! Aren't your Powerpuff Girls supposed to protect the city!?"
She'd be ready to continue the fight if it came to that. If it did, she'd start fighting the girl as if she were a monster, not a counterpart. And who knew, maybe she was. In a true mirror universe, wouldn't Chemical X be evil? Meaning the black light would be good? She brought her hammer back to rest on her shoulder, but was ready to fly back and dodge if Buttercup flew at her. Hopefully she was wrong, she didn't like the idea of a law abiding Mojo... or worse, an angelic Him. She shuddered at that thought.

… Buttercup lightly growled, rubbing her head as a bump started to form. In all honesty, what the Powered Buttercup said DID make sense. She didn’t like the fact that the fight was ending before she could knock the copycat down a peg or two… But looking around the city, she could tell why the android maid was acting the way she was. “Grrrr…….” She didn’t like the fact that she made sense, but she knew this had to stop. “FINE.”
After a second, she lowered down until she was sitting on the same roof Marina was on. Powered Buttercup was likely right behind her. “That’s better.” Came Marina frowning still at the two. “Now, would either of you two be willing to tell me what started this fight in the first place?”

Powered Buttercup had tensed up as Buttercup growled, but it went away as soon as the other teenager deigned to accept her point. As Buttercup flew towards Marina, Powered Buttercup's hammer vanished in a flash of green light. She came down and landed in the same place Buttercup had used to land just as Marina was asking what started the fight. She stretched her hands behind her head as she spoke, her fingers laced together and stretching.
"She attacked me first," Powered Buttercup said, not making eye contact with either of them and talking a bit out the side of her mouth. She seemed a bit bored now.

Buttercup hopped to attention at that. "WHAT?! That's not true!! You attacked ME first!!"
WHAM!!!
"Now that's quite enough out of you." Buttercup grumbled as she rubbed the bump that was now forming on her head. Marina meanwhile, while lightly confused as to why the hit hadn't hurt her as well (After all these girls had to have been made of something other then actual flesh and bones to have been able to do what they were capable of), turned to Powered Buttercup, sighing a little. "Well, now that we have THAT settled; I don't suppose either of you two have seen an old man around here have you?" She thought a moment. "Maybe around 6 feet high? A little on the plump side? Something of a perv?"
[She of course, is refering to Professor Theo, her creator.]

Actually, the other girl was technically correct. Technically. I mean, one could argue that the way she had been laughing had been an attack, right? In any case, Powered Buttercup couldn't stop a slight chuckle as the digital girl smacked Buttercup upside the head. Her hammear appeared again, and the Japanese teenager used it as a support as she shook her head.
"I haven't seen any dirty old men," Powered Buttercup stated, "You wouldn't have seen some girls my ages dressed the same way I am? One's dressed in dark pink, the other in blue? They go by Blossom and Bubbles? Oh, they can fly too."
Actually, now that the fight with Buttercup was over, Powered Buttercup found herself being extremely concerned. Both Blossom and Bubbles had vanished as she was working on getting out of Dynamo-Z. That strange black portal that had brought them here. Thinking back, it had reeked of black aura, of a power level she didn't really want to think about... She could check on them after getting a response. But in any case, it was definently something to be concerned over.
...not to mention her question stood a good chance of annoying her American counterpart again.
