Alison: Okay, I know this is a really short beginning, but please just give this story a chance. It's my first TMNT fanfic...

Chevi: Oh don't be so nervous. You know you'll keep writing even if no one reviews.

Alison: It's true...

Chevi: We don't own TMNT or their characters (Though that would be awesome if we did!)

Alison: Enjoy ^^


It was never hard.

It was really just a dance of sorts.

She took a deep breath, knowing it was best to take her time, not rush it. She lowered herself to the ground, one leg sliding back along the cool, tile floor.

1… 2… 3… She stopped, and carefully, quietly twisted her body over. She leaned forward slowly, taking a deep breath in. Her other leg shook under the weight of her entire body, but she didn't give way.

All was silent in the large room, as it was supposed to be at this late time of the night. The small girl closed her eyes, focusing on that silence. She was silence… She had to be.

She slipped an arm between the streaks of red, laying her hand flat on the floor. Her long, navy blue-to-black hair was braided and she'd pushed it inside the front of her shirt so it wasn't bothersome, though she had to watch it at this part.

Slowly and swiftly, she twisted her body again. She put another hand on the ground between the beams and lifted a leg into the air.

MWER! MWER! MWER!

She flinched at the sound of the alarm and froze in her uncomfortable position.

What was wrong? What'd she do wrong?

She heard the running of feet and, since the alarms were going off anyway, she flipped backwards and stood.

Her heart pounded against her chest nervously and she swiped the necklace from the case before taking her leave.


Alison: ...

Chevi: ...THat was short.

Alison: I told you!

Chevi: You suck.

Alison: Shuddup. I'll be writing more next time.

Chevi: Psh. Whatever. Review please!
