Good Morning! Or Evening! Or Afternoon! Or whatever time it is over where you are. Here is the second chapter! Heh heh. I am having sooooo much fun writing in Raph's POV. It's kind of hard, but fun. LOTS-O-FUN :3. It helps me release my inner wrath. :3. I hope you enjoy reading, and please review! Disclaimer; I do not own the turtles. But sometimes I want to give them hugs.


"Hold up guys, we're being watched." I pull a shuriken from my belt. The conversation stops.

I throw the small weapon close in front of where the person's (or thing's) head seems to be. It jumps off the wall. Good, caught it by surprise. It flails its arms and legs in attempt to reach the wall as it falls. Did I just see a tail? It lets out a small squeak as it lands on a pile of Mikey's pizza boxes. Fail.

"*Chortle* Smooth… *hiccup*" Mikey laughs. He doesn't seem to understand the seriousness of the situation. But, the fall was pretty ridiculous. Glad it was off guard.

"Come out into the light where we can see you." I say sternly as I can without laughing.

The spy slowly steps out of the shadows. It's a girl! A mutant lizard girl! ...She's kinda cute... NO! DO NOT PULL A LEO! She was spying on us! She might be working for the Kraang.

"Whoa dudes, it's another mutant!" Mikey jumps in front of the girl. Shoot! She might hurt him.

"Hey there. My name is Mik…!" I cover his mouth and push him back.

"Don't say anything! She could be dangerous!" I shove my sai in her face and glare at her. She acts intimidated while observing my weapon.

"Aww, c'mon Raph… who would fall so majestically like that and be dangerous?" Casey snickers. How oblivious can he be? Maybe she is what the Kraang were hiding.

"She was spying on us! Who knows how long she was there?!" I yell at them, while keeping my eyes on her. That's probably it; they were the distraction; she is the weapon.

"That doesn't make her dangerous, maybe she was scared of you guys." April is on her side too. Why?

"So why couldn't you just ask her, Raph?" Don remarks. I don't understand. The smartest people are rooting for her. I'll ask her, but I'm still not letting her out of my sight any time soon.

"Fine… Um, what were you watching us for!?" It's not like she would tell us anyway.

"Dude, shouldn't you ask for her name first? Manners, man! Ever heard of them?" Mikey crosses his arms in a huffy manner. What?! She is an enemy!

"Pfft, yea, like you're one to talk." I scoff.

"My sons! What is going on?" Oh good, Master Splinter and Leo. They should help convince everyone. I turn to face Sensei. I'm still watching her out of the corner of my eye. She is observing Sensei and Leo. I can tell from her posture.

"He...he... hello….m…m...Master Splinter…." I wish I could see Casey's face right now. It would be priceless.

"Konbanwa, Mr. Jones. Raphael, who is that young lady you are pointing your sai at?" Splinter asks in his usual calm manner.

"We don't know Master Splinter, she just kinda fell outta the sky!" Mikey interrupts. I'll glare at him later.

"She was spying on us Sensei; I was just about to interrogate her." Still watching her. I'm glad you showed up. You would do a better job than me.

"Well, why don't we interrogate her more comfortably? I do not sense any evil intentions from her aura." WHAT?! Sensei too?! … If he says so…

"…Hai, Sensei." I glare at her, put my weapon back in my belt, and start to walk over to Leo.

"You'll have to forgive my bro, ma'am. He's not all there sometimes! Now, allow me to show you to our lair." Not all there?! I'm saner than you are!

"What do you mean!?" I change my direction and heads toward Mikey. The girl turns around and looks at me. Her eyes widen and she quickly turns back around.

"You know what I mean, dude; it's ok, you'll just have to accept it and move on." He pats her on the shoulder gently while grinning at me. Oh yea?

"Well, listen here, you little…!" I can't believe I was just concerned for you! Maybe it would have been better to just let her sit there on the wall!

"Not now, Raph!" Leo jumps in like he always does. So annoying! He doesn't understand!

"Yea, Raph! Listen to Leo!" Mikey stands beside him. That little twerp! I'm gonna smack him so hard, when he wakes up, it'll be in California!

"No, Mikey! Stop! You're just going to anger him more!" Leo scolds Mikey. I'm glad he knows me so well (sarcasm). Leo turns to me and opens his mouth.

"Oh no you don't! I am not hearing a lecture from you! Wait till I'm done wiping the floor with brainless here!" I walk to him point my finger at his plastron. Leo closes his trap and scowls.

"We'll see who's wiping the floor with who." Leo growls.

"Was that a threat?" I sneer.

"Maybe. Want to find out?"

*thunk, thunk, thunk*

Oww… I can deal with a butt whipping from Tiger Claw, but there is something about Splinter's hits that really hurt.

"That is enough my sons. I believe we were supposed to be finding out the purpose of our guest." Splinter glares at the three of us.

"She's our guest?!" She's not a guest, she's an intruder!

"Indeed. Now everyone please have a seat and let us sort this mess out." Splinter gives me "the look". I glance away to see the girl staring at me, watching my movements.

Leo shows me his "this isn't over yet" face then, and sits next to sensei. Mikey sticks his tongue out at me. I hit him over the head. I don't think he'll ever learn. I'd prefer not to sit. It's easier to be on guard while standing. You can be ready for anything that way. I sit down, but, only because Sensei asked me to.

"Now, Miss, what is your name?" Splinter asks gently. Why is she getting red carpet treatment?

"My name is… Lisa." Good, now I can add you to my list of "mutants to watch out for".

"Lisa? Is it short for sum thin'? Like Elizabeth or Lizard?" Mikey zips over to her.

"Why on earth would it be short for Lizard?" Sarcasm. It helps me calm down.

"Because you know, she's a lizard and, Lisa sounds like…" What have I done…?

"WE GET IT!" Everyone shouts.

"Actually, it is short for something." She shifts a bit.

"Told ya." Sure, whatever, Mikey. Nobody cares.

"But not what you were thinking, umm…" She frowns.

"Michelangelo. Or Mikey, whichever you like more." He winks. Why is he obsessed with her all of a sudden?

"Ya, ok. It's actually short for…" She backs away from him.

"Short for what? Just tell me already!" Mikey interrupts, like always. I hit him.

"Oww..." Mikey pouts.

"It's short for Mona Lisa." Mona?

"Mona Lisa…." April sounds confused.

"What? So, like the painting?" Don seems fascinated. He shouldn't be.

"Yea, the one made by Leonardo Da Vinci." You don't say.

"Well, it just so happens we have a Leonardo!" Mikey points to Leo enthusiastically. I want to hit him again.

"So you guys are named after Renaissance artists?" Yes, we are. Get over it.

"Yea, the tall geeky one is Donatello, and Mr. Temper over there is Raphael." Mr. Temper huh? Never heard that one before.

"I see. That's … different." She looks at me again. Why me? Can't she look at someone else?

"Well, you were named after a painting." I remark. She glares slightly.

"Perhaps it's not that bizarre, Raph. I know a girl at school who has that same name. Hey, that's the same hoodie she wears too… Wait a second…" What? April...

"Wait… There's a girl at our school named 'Mona Lisa'?" April glares at Casey.

"Wow! What conscience!" Mikey pokes Mona.

"That's coincidence." Don sighs.

"No, actually, it's not. April got it." Mona turns to April. No… she doesn't mean…

"Got what? What did April get?" Mikey stares at Mona. She means it. A recent mutant.

"Dang it! Another citizen we couldn't protect." I have to, I gotta; I need to let my anger out at something! The couch. I punch the couch. Hard.

"How long have you been like this Lisa?" April asks, concerned.

"I'm not sure. I woke up about an hour ago in the old sewer outlet. I had a head ache and my whole body was sore. It didn't take me long to figure out that I wasn't human anymore." The old sewer outlet… an hour ago? The Kraang!

"So, you're new to this mutant stuff?" Mikey asks. That means… maybe she isn't dangerous… yet.

"Yea, I guess. I'm just unsure of what I'm going to do from now on." I wonder if she has a tracker on her, like Mr. O'Neil did.

"There's no need to worry, Lisa; it's a stage all mutants have to go through. And I'll be here if you need me." Mikey pats Mona on the back. Nope. No tracker. Still suspicious.

"How'd you get in the sewer?" I ask. Depending on how you answer, it will decide your fate. According to me anyway…

"I'm not really sure. I can tell you what I remember up to the point where I passed out if you want, but it isn't really that interesting." I can't tell if she's lying or if she just feels awkward.

"Every piece of information helps us to find out who did this to you. Although, we already have our suspicions..." Leo states.

"But nobody did this to me; it was an act of my own clumsiness!" She doesn't know who mutated her?

"Perhaps that is what you think, but there is always more to a story than it seems." Splinter's words of wisdom, everyone…

"Believe us, we know from personal experience." Donnie explains.

"Yea, it's sort of a sad story…" Mikey presses his hand over his heart and acts depressed. Okay that's it. I pick up a pillow and throw it at him.

"Omf!"

"No, it's not." I remark.

"Why would it be sad?" Mona asks. That voice… it's too soft… it's sort of annoying.

"Like I said, it's not." Doesn't she get it?

"Alright, well if it's not sad, what happened?" Nosy. That's her plan I bet!

"One day, while Master…!" Sorry Mikey but, she has explaining to do. (Actually I'm not sorry...)

"Hold up. We're not saying anything until you finish your little sob story." I go straight up to her. She's so short. Almost shorter than Mikey.

She backs away gagging a bit. She starts to fan her hand in front of my face and keeps gagging. Why is she doing that? Casey and Mikey suddenly burst out laughing. Donnie and Leo chuckle and April snickers behind a pillow. What? Are… are they mocking me?!

I growl and glare at everyone in the room then I glance to the side, at Mona. She just mocked me!

"That is enough Raphael! Allow her to have personal space!" What?

"But…!" Splinter glares at me.

"…Hai, Sensei." I mumble.

"Now, if you would ask her to explain her story in a more polite manner." Splinter asks/orders me.

Do I have to? I'm not really good at this whole polite and manners thing. I scratch the back of my head.

"Could you tell us your story first… Please?" I grimace.


To be continued... next Friday! (After the new episode comes out! XD)
