With Donnie on a "date" with April, Raph and Leo practising their fighting and master splinter meditating, I have been put on night time patrol with Casey Jones. We are sitting on top of a building with a billboard behind us as we look over the city.

"Why dont you check the coast line and I'll go check out the purple dragon hideouts again?" Casy asks

"Why do you get the cool one?" I complain

"I'm in charge, that's why," he stands up and pats of his pants

"Fine whatever." I get up and head toward the cost line angrily.

Walking on the shore I begin to talk to myself

"Because I'm in charge he says, well guess what Casey jones, you're not a mutant you don't get to be in charge." I turn to walk down the pear "I should be in charge not to mention I-" I stop in my tracks at the end of the pear to see three fishermen untangling a sea turtle out of their nets, but when they are unsuccessful they shove it over board.

Panicked I jump into the water to grab the turtle. I swim over to where it fell in then dive deep to find the still half tangled turtle sinking to the ocean floor. I wrap my arms around its shell and drag it back to shore. We flop onto the sand and I notice that it has a fish hook stuck in its right front flipper. I care fully get the rest of the netting and fishing wire of it then very carefully pull out the fish hook.

I pick up the turtle and inspect it then realise I won't be able to tell whether it's a boy or a girl. I set it care fully back on the ground.

"I'm gonna call you frank." I say rubbing his shell softly. Its skin is blue and it has a mole right above its left eye, its nose has a slight up turn. I stand up to give it space so he can go back into the ocean but when he tries to move its flipper that's wounded he can't. I care fully pick it back up and head for the lair.

When I arrive Casy is busy informing them on the hideouts whereabouts and that he stopped the purple dragons from robbing an old lady. I roll my eyes as I walk in with the turtle wrapped in my arms. Then put on a smile and say,

"Look what I found!"

April jumps right up when she sees me.

"Mikey what happened to you?" she asks with concern.

I carefully put down Frank then realise that the bleeding was so bad that I was now covered in his blood.

"Oh, well you see Casey told me to check out the coast line and when I was there these fishing guys had caught this turtle and they just threw him back in without untangling or removing the fishing hook that was caught in his flipper. so I rescued him."

"Good job Mikey. But why is he here?" Leo stands and walks over to the turtle on the floor then strokes its shell

"When I let him go he couldn't move the flipper that had the fish hook in it."

"I can patch it up." April had started cleaning the flipper and was examining the wound.

"Thanks April." then Leo stand up and walks away and April grabs her backpack and pulls out a sewing kit. I walk towards the bathroom to wash of all the blood. When I return I find that April has finished. So I bring frank over to leo.

"Hey Leo."

"Yes Mikey?"

"Can we keep it?"

"No!" he shouts

"Oh come on, please?"

"Don't you remember the last time we had a pet turtle?" he asks me and Raph chimes in

"Slash is good now remember?"

"I won't let him near Donnie's lab i promise." then Donnie walks out of his lab and sees the turtle

"What is going on out here?"

"I have a turtle!" I squeal in excitement.

"Yes I see the turtle Mikey."

"Ha! Look Donnie can be funny!" Raph chimes in.

"What?" Donnie looks closer at the turtle then continues "oh, I get it, it's a sea turtle, I SEA the turtle, ok that makes sense."

"He rescued it from fishermen," Leo fills in and I give leo the biggest puppy eyes "I can't believe I'm going to say this but, he's keeping it."

"Wahoooooo!" I shout and run away with my new pet and Donnie yells,

"What!? He can't keep a sea turtle!"

"Wait Mikey!" leo stops me in my tracks and my heart is racing, I just got my first pet and now I'm going to lose it. "If we're keeping a sea turtle it has to have a name." I smile at him big and donnie walks over. I put down the turtle and state

" His name is Frank!"
