ch 1: Crazy new friend
It was a late windy night in the city of New York; Ah forget that sissy beginning, let's just skip to the main characters! OK? Now, were was I? Oh yea, the guys were on their regular patrol, protecting the city, stopping the foot, making sure no one dies or gets kidnapped yadi, yadi, ya. They had turned their patrolling into a race to see who could beat the most bad guys in one night, but they knew it would be Raph or Leo who would win, but all bet it was Raph who would win, as usual. Any ways, They were on a roof top catching their breaths because they had raced to the building they were now on.
"O-ok, *pant* w-what's, the next, race, *pant*?" Mikey asked between gasps of air.
"W-well, we could see who c-could catch s-someone who is running f-from the cops." Donnie suggested.
"Good idea, Donnie. And since that hardly ever happens, I bet I'll be the first to find some one that's running from the cops." Raph bragged.
"Yea right, I'll beat you to it easily!" Leo said, some what bragging himself.
"Can not!" Raph gave back.
"Can to!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
In the distance they heard someone yelling to come back or some thing like that. They looked over the roof and saw a girl of about 14 or 15 years with raven black hair and emerald green high-lights. And behind her were about 8 to 10 cops chasing her. She seemed to be enjoying herself being chased by those officers, she was laughing almost like a maniac. She then jumped up on a light post and grinned down at the officers.
"Get down from there you little rat!" one of the officers yelled.
"This is going to go against you big time little girl!" another one yelled, witch seemed to be the shortest one.
"Look who's talking 'officer'!" she yelled down followed by a menacing laugh.
"You know you're going to jail for this, right?" asked another officer.
"Oh, come on boys, i was only borrowing some food," she said making the guys get more interested, "And even if I was supposed to go to jail, you'd have to catch me first!" With that she jumped on to a hot dog stand's umbrella, and jumped of, starting to run and flip all over the place.
"Whoa, this chick's insane!" Raph said as they started running after her and the officers, "What she say they were chasing her for? For 'borrowing' food, or something like that?"
"Yea, witch means she robbed some place at some point!" Leo said, then his face brightened up a bit, "I'ma get her first and win this race!"
"Oh, no you're not!" Raph said picking up his speed, "I am!"
"Not if I get there first!" Mikey and Donnie said at the same time. Then the race to catch her and turn her in began.
"You boys are to slow!" she yelled as she swung from one lamp post to the other, "Better keep up if you want to catch me!" she swung over a man selling some radios and picked it up, "I'll pay you tomorrow, I promise! Not really, but I'll see when I could pay!" she started running back wards and threw the radio at the officers knocking two out cold, "Not sorry!" she yelled turning back forwards.
She then started humming a song the guys could faintly hear, she then started singing it aloud, making the chase a bit more fun for her, and less fun for the cops.
Aladdin: One jump ahead
Girl: Gotta keep,
One jump ahead
of the breadline
One swing, ahead
of the sword
I steal only what
I can't afford,
That's
everything
One jump, ahead of
the lawmen,
That's all and that's
no joke,
These guys don't
appreciate I'm broke
First officer: Riffraff,
Second officer: Street rat,
Third officer: Scoundrel,
Fourth officer:*throws branch* Take that!
Girl: Just a little snack
guys!
Officers: Rip 'er open,
Take it back guys,
Girl: I can take a hint,
Gotta face the facts,
Your my only friend
Gliss *a little white mouse*
two random girls: Oh! It's sad
she hits the
bottom,
She's become a one
girl rise in crime
An older women: I'd blame
parents, except
she hasn't got
'em
Girl: Gotta eat to live,
Gotta steal to eat,
Tell you all about
it when I got the
time
Girl: One jump,
ahead of the
slowpokes,
One skip,
Ahead of my doom
Girl: Next time,
gonna use a
nom de plume
Girl: One jump,
Ahead of the hit man,
One hit,
Ahead of the flock,*officers get in front of her*
I think, I'll take a stroll
around the block *turns and walks other direction*
Officer one: Stop thief!
Officer two: Vandal!
Officer three: Outrage!
Officer four: Scandal!
Girl: Let's not be too
hasty,
Teenage boy: Still I think she's
rather crazy
Girl: Gotta live to eat,
Gotta steal to eat,
Otherwise we'd
get along,
Officers: WRONG!
Girl: One jump ahead of the
hoof beats,
Officers: Vandals!
Girl: One hop ahead of the hump,
Offices: Street rat!
Girl: One trick ahead of disaster,
Officer: Scoundrel!
Girl: They're quick, but I'm
much faster,
Here goes, better
throw my hand in,
Wish me happy landin'
All I got to do is jump!
*jumps off of a building*
END SONG
"What just happened?" Mikey asked as they watched the girl land safely and keep running, "Hey guys, I got a good idea." Mikey said.
"Let me guess, we should follow her, right?" Raph asked with an unamused look on his face.
"Correct-a-mundo, bro. How'd you guess?" Mikey asked.
"Lucky guess." Was Raph's answer.
"Let's go!" Leo said as they started running after her.
They followed her to an abandoned warehouse at the corner of Main street. She looked around and her face dropped, and she entered slowly her head hanging low. They waited till she came out, and when she did she was pretty beaten up. And she didn't look how she had when she was swinging from lamp post to lamp post. The guys faces seemed to fall of the very site of the know broken girl. She staggered into an ally and leaned against the wall. She then carefully made her way out and avoided all the cops. She walked to another warehouse,this one looked worn down and like it would fall at any minute, and she knocked on the door witch was opened by some body, and the girl immediately passed out. A girl immediately ran out and surrounded her. She took her in and closed the door making sure no one was watching. The guys looked at each other and decided to call it a night.
The next day, or night, on their patrol they went back to the warehouse and saw the girl walk out, she looked less beaten up, but she thanked the girl and left. The guys followed her, to make sure she wouldn't get into any more trouble. None came to her, but they still kept an eye on her. When she turned a corner and looked up with the corner of her eye and noticed the guys following her. Raph was the only one that noticed, he also noticed that her eye color was green like his. The girl also noticed Raph but since they were running she only saw his left eye, and he only saw her right. She made a hand motion to him, and he nodded in response.
"Hey guys, we should stop here for a while," Raph said stopping and nodding to the girl before the guys looked at him with strange looks, "Y-you know, so Mikey could catch his breath."
"I don't need to - uff!" Mikey was interrupted by Raph elbowing him in the stomach, "Yea I need to catch my breath." Mikey said grunting.
"Told you." Raph said blankly.
"So why are you guys following me?" asked a girl's voice.
"Aaaaaah!" Leo, Donnie, and Mikey screamed.
"Oh, so you're the ones following me yet I'm the one that scares you? Not you red, you're actually pretty brave." the girl said coming up behind Raph and waving to him, witch he just waved back in response. "And red, thanks for buying me some time to get up here."
"No problem, I just did it to punch him." Raph said with a smirk on his face.
"Wait, you knew she was following us?!" Leo asked.
"And you didn't tell us?!" Donnie added in.
"And you hit me?!" Mikey asked obviously mad.
"Yes, yes, and yes. Especially the last one." Raph said smirking making the girl smirk as well.
"Anyways, wut's up?" the girl asked, her bangs never uncovering her right eye.
"Uh, oh, um, w-we were following you b-because, um?" Leo looked to his brothers for assistance witch they looked away from.
"Ugh, we were following you because we wanted to make sure you didn't get hurt again, but your ok so all's well." Raph said with a sigh.
"Oh, well thanks, that's . . . very, sweet of you. Especially you red, you seem to be the type of guy who wouldn't be kind." she answered, "By the way my names Madalyn."
"Raphael, but you could call me Raph."
"Names Mikey."
"Donnie."
"Leonardo, call me Leo"
"Well it's very nice to meet you all," she said with a sweet smile, then turned to Raph, "But I prefer Red instead of Raph, that's if it's ok with you."
"I don't mind." Raph said plainly and shrugging, with no real emotion to the conversation, as much as she did.
"Hey why don't you move the bangs out of your eyes?" Mikey asked.
"Uh, I just don't want to." she answered.
"Come on move the hair, please?" Mikey asked pleadingly.
"Ugh, fine," she moved the hair from her eyes to show her eye was red. She had one red and one green iris, "This is why I cover my eyes."
"Oh, well that's pretty cool." Raph said as they were all mesmerized by her eyes.
"Well, thanks . . . again Red." Madalyn said.
"No problem." Raph said as they all started walking to the lair. And when the guys looked away he smiled sweetly at her, making her blush uncontrollably. And for the first time in along time she felt, happy.
