So...Yeah this was something that came into my head I just had to write down, I bit spoilery for Revenants of Dark Earth revealing the names the Female Mole and Male Ringneck Snake eventually get but that's a minor spoiler
Ever since the Mutant Liberation of the Summer of 2006, the Turtles who had since had to drop the first 'T' from their Acronym as they were no longer Teenagers and TSMNT or 'Twenty-Something Mutant Ninja Turtles' didn't have the same ring to it. Were slowly but surely acclimating to their new existance of being free to walk among humans unconceiled and unencumbered.
Whilst Eleanor Capra the Mutant Sheep was the offical 'Mayor' of the 'Mutant Town' of Forest. In reality she was more a Tribal Chieftess than what is thought of as a 'Mayor' as Eleanor was probobly the one Mutant closest to the Turtles and Splinter when it came to knowing the ways of Humanity and she was in charge of looking after the Physical Needs of the Mutants, making sure each had the various foods that he or she needed, that each had the proper shelter to house and Animal of his or her blood and soon a School would be built that would be perfectly tailored to the unique physical an mental needs of the Mutants (Because as nice as it would be for Mutants and Humans to attend school side by side, Mutants not merely being another race but another species that simply wasn't possible, what Mutants needed simply wasn't provided at Human Schools,Longer Recess Hours, Longer Lunch Hours, Gym Class for Animals with specilized abilities like flying or digging, and less students pure classroom)
Till then, the Turtles and most particurally Leonardo attended the emotional and spiritual needs of young mutants, weather they were physically children or adults who had only existed as Mutants for a few months or years.
Leo was beginning teaching a class of Mutants basic breathing exercises for martial arts. When suddenly he heard the bell of the dojo door ring, and in came two Mutants, a Female Red-Eyed Tree Frog and Male Grey Squirrel.
"Rana," He adressed the Frog "And Charlie." He said to the Squirrel, you two are late again, where the SHELL have you been?"
As the Two Mutants looked at him, Leo could see distinct bags under both their eyes as both cracked weary grins.
"Sorry Sensai." Rana said "We've just been obbssesed with..." Rana began to yawn.
"...Online gaming!" Charlie said quickly "We've been having so much fun killing orcs and saving Elf Princesses we kind of haveen't been sleeping too much..."
Leo raised and eye ridge "If online gaming has become that important to you maybe you both should quit my Martial Arts Class..."
"No! No! No!" Both said quickly
"Sorry Sensai!" Rana said bowing quickly "We'll quit online gaming tomorow, get some sleep and start doing things proper tomorow."
Leo looked over to his partner in running the Dojo his friend and brother-in-law Knuckles a Mutant Jackrabbit, whose Lapine Nose was twitching furiously
Knuckles didn't 'speak' with his mouth and vocal cords, the scientist who Mutated him never intended him to instead Knuckles 'Spieked' through telepathy he could 'Broadcast' so anyone around him could 'Hier' him or focus upon one specific person to give a message to. Knuckles did just that with Leo ^My nose detects some change in hormones for both of them^ He communicated to Leonardo ^Those two are lying and I'm worried, look at how the arms and legs are twitching...Whatever they are doing it isn't video games.^
Leo responded with a simple nod and turned to the class. "Take a five minute break everyone, for today Rna and Charlie can take a nap and I'll get them situated."
He led the two Mutants to a quiet room in the Dojo, a few fragrent flowers bloomed, Gifts from Ichabod Crane, and the room also had a stereo for playing music.
Leo rolled out to soft matts. "Rest here" He said to both of them "Better to start early regaining your strengh."
"Gee Thanks Sensai!" Said Charlie
"No problem." Leo said mildly
As the two flopped down to rest. Rana looked at Leo "Sensai..." She said
"Hmm?" Leo turned as he was about to leave the quiet room.
"I just wanted to say...I think your the best Sensai we've ever had, we had another Sensai before you...But we think you're the greatest!"
Leo blushed "Thanks." He said bashfully "That really means a lot to me."
After Class was done. Leo began to plan with Knuckles
"We should form a team..." Leo said "...We don't want too large a team though."
^I think we should leave Raph and Olive to their honeymoon.^ Knuckles said as Raph had married Knuckles' 'Sister' the Cat Mutant Olive ^Beside Raph is still adjusting to life with one eye...He's not fighting fit just yet...^
"Neither is Don..." Leo said with a sigh "That only leaves Mikey...Who should we take from your team?"
^My fellow Psychic Wyatt.^ Said Knuckles Wyatt was a Jamacian Fruit Bat who like Knuckles also had vast Psychic powers ^And actually I think he's the only sibling I want to take...I've been thinking about our two Revenants, Eartha and Ringo...^
"Those two are mostly studying with their Human 'Tutors' " Leo said the Human Tutors were former Gotham Rogues Jonathan 'Scarecrow' Crane and Edward 'Riddler' Nygma.
^But with our wristwatches we can jump to first Earth, and jump back with them^ Knuckles said with a grin ^Eartha has the power to control and plants, Ringo can generate fire from his body...I may not have 'Oracle' powers among my psychic roster...But I dunno...I keep having this feeling that whatever those two are actually doing...We might need some heavy hitters for.^
Leo nodded deep down he shuddered to think what it was Rana and Charlie were actually doing.
Later that night after retrieving Eartha the Mole and Ringo the Ringneck Snake from First Earth. Leo, Mikey, Knuckles, Wyatt and two Revenants from Earth Six Eartha and Ringo began the process of shadowing. When Rana and Charlie left the Tree House both of them lived in, at around nine'o clock at night. Both of them were still so, tired, so worn out...Their senses were dulled enough that they couldn't detect six Animals slowly folowing them from a distance. As the two began to leave the Mutant Communitiy of Forest and actually enter the untamed wilderness of actual forest. The night had quite a chill as it was mid-October and everyone had Halloween on the brain...Everyonce and a while an Owl would silently fly overhead or some Bats who in Wyatt's Primordial Brain he would reconize as kindred...Mikey would shudder from time to time but over the years the Youngest Ninja Turtle had learned not to let his fears get the better of him.
Finally they came to the base of a hill. Rana and Charlie stood before a large rock, and opened a panal revealing it was actually a machine disguised as a rock. Charlie pushed four buttons in a certain way, first the white button then the yellow button, then the blue button, then the pink button then finally the white button again. And the rock slid aside revealing an opening into the hill! The two disapeared into the hill and the rock slid back into place concealing the entrence.
"Hoo Boy..." Mikey huffed "You were absolutely right Knuckles! You do not need to do all this to play MORPGS!"
"I memorized the code." Leo said "i can get us in...Unfortunatly I have no idea what we'll find..."
Leo approached bthe rock and opened the panel White Button, Yellow Button, Blue Button, Pink Button, White Button Again,
"Holy Shell that code is too easy..." Mikey said dissaprovingly "Donny could create better secuirty codes in his sleep!"
The rock slid aside and everyone walked through...What seemed to be a stainless steel hallway! They turned a corner and saw Rana and Charlie talking to a Massive Mutant sitting behind a desk...The Mutant was so large and shaggy at first the Turtles weren't sure what he was! But a glimpse of his ears and teeth and tail, revealed he was massive mutant feline of some sort!
"It's been really fun!" Rana said nervously and quickly "Fighting these underground wrestlng boats!"
'Underground Wrestling Bouts?!' Leo thought in shock
"But this is really cutting into our sleep schedule..." Charlie added
"...So much so we can't really do anything else during the day!" Said Rana so "So we really want to quit...We hope Claudandus won't be too mad..."
