She should have just stayed in the lair, but did she? NO! Merry disobeyed Master Splinter and went to the surface, only to make a new friend… based on the 2012 series, the turtles are 7, yea…. Just read it! Btw Merry has a yellow ninja mask and light purple eyes... on with chapter 1!
"Can we go to the surface?" asked Michelangelo, with a hopeful grin on his face. Splinter smiled fondly before answering
"No my son, you are too young. Perhaps one day, now run along." Mikey made a pouty face but ran off with Merry, who was waiting for him.
"Well," she asked "What did he say? Can we go? Wanna watch tv?"
"Uhh," started Mikey "OK so that's we can't go, no, and sure."
Groaning Merry reluctantly joined her brother, at the tv, where the rest of her siblings were, minus Donatello, who was still at the table because he didn't finish his dinner. Raph and Leo were
watching the Halloween parade going on at the surface, Mikey wanted to change it but knew it would be best to stay put. Merry didn't see the point in watching this, and decided to go for a
walk. She went to her room and grabbed paper and a marker, quickly scribbling where she was, so Splinter wouldn't worry.
Merry exited her room and left the note on the counter. Then she opened the door of the lair, turning around and seeing that her brothers' faces glued to the screen. She rolled her eyes and
walked towards her favorite path tunnel.
Merry walked a 1/2 mile before she decided to head back, suddenly she heard the manhole above her shift, and start to open. With ninja reflexes she jumped behind some old pipes, and
waited for time to pass. She heard voices, male voices, Merry couldn't help but look, and saw two humans. Her eyes opened in shock at the people. Besides tv, she had never seen humans,
and what were they doing in the sewers?
"Come on Hank," the taller one said "The faster we finish the pipe damage the faster we leave." The two men walked opposite of Merry, and left her there thinking. Should she head back, in
case they return? Or stay put? Suddenly Merry had a better idea. Climb out of the sewers and go to the surface. No don't do it, you'll not only expose yourself but the others as well. A voice in
her head commanded, aw, come on, have some fun! Another voice said. Merry debated the choices, but finally let the curious side get the better of her. I'll just take a short peek, what's wrong with that?
