Hey! Sorry i took so long, but here is first ch of my new story! Enjoy!
April rushed through the wintery streets of New York, her breath making small plumes of white smoke in the cold, December air. The whole city was getting ready for Christmas. The stores were putting up displays and having sales, lights were being put up, and there was garland and big red bows on every lamppost. April sighed happily. She loved this time of year! She couldn't wait to get to the lair, because it was the day she and the turtles left on the road trip to her farm house upstate for the rest of the winter and spring. She had convinced her father she was studying abroad in France until late May. She wondered how they would get to the farm house, but Donatello had assured her he had taken care of it. She reached the manhole and entered the sewer. She reached the lair, and was warmly greeted by splinter and he rushed her to the abandoned subway tracks, saying that Donatello was going to show them his latest invention. As they reached the tracks, a twin pair of headlights shone out of the tunnel. Out of the tunnel drove a subway car on wheels! Donatello emerged and leaned casually against the doorframe.
"You turned Leatherhead's old subway car into that?" Leo asked in amazement.
"Sure did."Donatello replied. (Sorry, author intrusion. By this point they know about shredder and other dangers. Just letting you guys know.)
"Introducing... The Shellraiser!"
"Did I ever tell you how awesome you are?" Raph asked.
"No, you have not." Donatello replied.
"Because I'm seriously considering it." Just then, Donatello noticed April.
"Hey, April." he said, coming over to her.
"Hey Donnie. Ready to go?"
"You know it!" he replied. "Want to see the inside?"
"Thought you'd never ask." Raph said, barging in. April and Donnie followed close behind, with Leoband Mikey after them, and Splinter last. The interior looked like the inside of a subway car, except for the drivers seat, a control panel and steering wheel, pedals, stereo, and several high tech speakers.
"I haven't even shown you the best part." Donatello said, picking up a small remote and aiming it at a wall. A panel slid open, revealing a plasma TV and a Wii. "Upgraded with all the Just Dance games." Donatello finished. April squealed with delight.
"I call driving!" Raph said, making a beeline for the drivers seat.
"Is everyone ready to go?" asked Master Splinter, as he disembarked.
"Hai, Sensei." the five teens replied.
"Then have fun, and I will see you in May!" he said, waving as the Shellraiser drove off.
As soon as the started driving, Raph blasted some loud rock music. Donnie and Mikey did air guitar and April danced crazily. Leo, on the other hand, sat quietly and watched. Well, not exactly quietly. He was laughing hysterically at Donnie, Mikey, and April's antics. April was the first to crack, sitting down next to Leo, winded. Next came Mikey, stopping his air guitar so only Donatello was left. He looked up and saw that only he was still doing air guitar, and went red. The others laughed. They rested for a while, catching up. It had been while since April had been with them, because of school. April had missed them, but she knew that this road trip would help them catch up.
I hope you liked the first chapter, but don't worry! This is only part one of the road trip! Until next time, Apritello rules!
