Hey to all fans and fictions, my birthday is next week and because I'm not at all selfish (umm…yea…), I shall give you all something.

Disclaimer: Tmnt does not belong to me, but when I dominate the world... I'll work on it.

-Raph POV.

We all stared, wide eyed at the scene in front of us. Never have we seen something quite as stunning. We weren't supposed to come here, we're not even on our own turf, here's what happened:

It was our normal morning warm up, at Casey's old grandmother's house in the country. We were on one of our early runs and we happen to pass some creepy wood with a 'privet property' sign. Knowing Mikey… well, he just couldn't resist, and we had to follow. As you could imagine, we ended up getting lost. A sharp whack on Mikey's head and we headed west, or east (Leo knows).

It was just the four of us and no house in sight. We searched for what seemed like hours, with Leo leading, Don close behind, talking with master Splinter on his shell cell. Mikey in front of me complaining about dying of starvation, and me bringing up the rear, fighting the urge to hit him again.

Don hung up, and as I expected, there is nothing Sensei can do about it.

Leo stumbled, then. We all stopped. We were looking down a hole, a big hole as well. Mikey picked up a rock and threw it down. We waited. It hit solid ground a few seconds later.

'We got nothin better to do.' I shrugged and went to climb down.

'Wait.' Leo put his hand out to stop me, 'we have no idea if it's steady.'

'One way to find out' I grinned clumsily and waved away the other attempts, given by my brothers.

I studied the hole, it was obviously man-made, nothing natural did this. I sat with my legs dangling down and touched the opposite wall. Footholds! Someone was defiantly here before. I started descending slowly, testing each foothold before I put my weight on it. Reluctantly, my brothers follow me.

It's getting stuffy down here, warmer than I imagined. I lose track of time quickly. We've been climbing for what? Twenty minutes? Thirty?

Moving carefully, in rhythm, foot-hand-foot-hand-foot-ha-

I touch land; still weary, I cling to the wall with one foot on the ground, and slowly move my weight from my hands to my feet. Solid. I call up to the others and they touchdown, some seconds later.

'I can't see nothin.' I said, followed quickly by the ghostly noised of the monster-mike.

'Ow' he yelped after one of my favourite sound of something colliding with his head, echoed.

'If I could just…' Don said as he flipped open his shell cell, illuminating his face. He pressed a button repeatedly. The dim glow getting lighter and lighter until Don couldn't look at it anymore. He faced it in front of us, illuminating the scene before us. Now here we are, staring wide eyed.

A cave. Reasonable size. Lots of stalactites and stalagmites. A waterfall to my right, I should of heard it but my breathing and heartbeat were so heavy, it muffled my hearing.

'Race you to the top of the waterfall, Leo' Mike yelled and ran off.

Leo snorted. 'I'd like to see you try.'

Don and I went off, on the grand tour. Holes everywhere, most likely leading to another cave, then another. We didn't dare look, though, in fear that we won't find our way back. My bro was busy telling me about how caves and preserve themselves, form themselves and destroy themselves.

A yelp behind us, followed by another scream and a teeth grinding thud. My heart sank.

Running as fast as I've ever ran before, Donny beside me.

'Leo!' I screamed and I saw him on the ground in a puddle of blood, breathing but just. I knew that this was going to be one hell of a day. One hell of a day.

Remember, if you yell at the sky, it might just reply. The chapters will get longer, this was just like the intro of some sorts.

I'll update quick, I promise )
