A green head peeked out from under a manhole. Deeming it safe, the creature climbed out. Four more forms joined him. "Whoa…."
The five shapes gasped in awe. The alley they were in was covered in graffiti. A farting hobo lied on a mattress. "It's so beautiful!" said the youngest.
The mutants were walking down the street. "This city is just full of possibility. There could be an adventure around this corner, or, or this one, or this one!" Leo rambled as he looked into an alley. A kitten mewed. Mona Lisa growled at it, making it run away. "There's not, but there could be!" Leo and Lisa ran to catch up with their brothers.
Donnie pressed his face up to a display window. "Look at all these computers! *GASP!* Is that the next generation cadmium processor with quantum encryption?!" Raph humored him and said," I don't know, Donatello. Is it?" Said terrapin looked closer and gasped, "IT IS!"
Mikey called his siblings over. "Guys, check it out; a hand made out of light!" The neon palmistry sign then changed. "*GASP* Now it's an eye made of light. *GASP* Now the hand again! Now the eye's back! Then the hand!" "C'mon, genius," said Raph as he began to pull his youngest brother's away from the sign by his mask tails. "THE EYE!"
The two rejoined the rest of the family in the middle of the street. "So where to next?" asked Donnie. Just then, a motor scooter came to a stop right in front of the mutants.
For a moment, everyone just stared at each other. Raph broke the silence by making a face at the scooter driver. The boy quickly jumped back onto his vehicle and drove away, either not knowing or caring that a box slid from its spot on the bike.
"Haha, that was kinda fun!" said Raph. "Can we do it again?" asked Lisa. Leo shook his head, and then said, "We're too exposed out here. Come on." He began to lead the way to a rooftop. Mikey glanced at the box.
The teenagers stared down at the strange box before them. It read: Antonio's Pizza. "Pizz…a?" Michelangelo tried to read the foreign word. "Should we open it?" asked Donatello. "Careful, it could be dangerous…" cautioned Leonardo. Raphael rolled his eyes and flipped the top open. Inside laid a steaming disc of bread, covered in sauce, cheese, and bits of meat.
"I think it's… food," said a very puzzled Donnie. "It's not like any food I ever saw," commented Raph. Mona Lisa sniffed the air and said, "It smells good, though." "I'll try it," volunteered Mikey. He picked up a triangular piece of it and took a bite of it. His eyes went wide as he scarfed the rest down and grinned. We all just stared at him. Would he explode? Would he get sick? …Did he just say "MMM"?!
"Uh, yuck! You guys won't like it; I'll take the rest-" "No way!" "Nu-uh!" "Let me try!" "Back off!" The box was quickly emptied and the sound of chewing filled the air. "I never thought I'd taste something better than worms and algae, but this is amazing!" exclaimed Raph.
Mikey threw his hands in the air and yelled, "I LOVE IT UP HERE!"
