Chapter 1, you guys ready? :)
Well before I start the chapter, I would like to thank kame otaku, SerenaSling, Knuckles lover 1245, tmntfangirl, and Phoenix Flame for reviewing my Prologue Chapter and to all of the people that favorited and followed, as well. And another special thanks to Knuckles lover 1245 & SerenaSling for allowing me to use your OCs! :)
And since both of you wanted Raph as a best friend, Raph will now have an even bigger role in my story and has now been added to the main character roster along with April, Casey, and Midnight (OC), so YAY!
Enough of my typing, TMNT does not belong to me, it belongs to Nickelodeon.
Enjoy Chapter 1! :D
Casey Jones was sitting on the couch, waiting for his sister Midnight Jones to come into the living room so that they could go to Roosevelt High School. Normally, Casey wouldn't mind being late to school, but today he was actually going to walk with April to school and he was okay with it or at least that's what he said.
Casey sighed. "Night, hurry up!" Casey yelled. Night then came into the living room. "Ready!" Night said, with a giant smile on her face.
Casey raised an eyebrow. "Why are you so happy?" He asked, confused. Night walked up to Casey. "Because I finally get to go to school, instead of just being in here all day". She said, motioning towards the whole apartment.
"Whatever, let's just go" Casey replied, while grabbing Night's wrist and getting her out the door. They both stepped down the fire escape and started walking.
Both Casey and Night walked in silence, until Night suddenly thought of a question for Casey. "You still haven't told me who we're going to walk with" Night asked mischievously. Casey rolled his eyes.
Casey then stopped and grabbed Night's shoulder. "Stay here" Casey told Night. He ran over to the fire escape and climbed up the steps, he then knocked on the door. He waited until the door finally opened and a girl with red hair stepped out.
"Hey Jones" said the girl, with a smile. Night looked up in curiosity.
Casey smiled back. "Hey Red" Casey replied slyly. The girl took the bangs out of her face and looked at Casey. "So are you ready to go" Casey asked April. April nodded and they both stepped down the fire escape and joined Night.
"So, was it so hard just to tell me you were bringing a friend to walk with us" Night stated. Both April and Night stared at Casey waiting for an explanation.
Casey sighed... again. "April, this is my little sister, Midnight" Casey explained, he turned to Night. "Night, this is April O'Neil". April walked up to Night and held out her hand. "Nice to meet you" April greeted, kindly.
Night took April's hand and shook it. "Nice to meet you too" Night replied.
The rest of the walk April, Casey, and Night talked and as it turns out Night and April shared many things in common; like how they're both stubborn and only had a father, although it seemed like she didn't want to talk about her father as much, it was like the subject alone saddened April, weird.
After School
Casey, April, and Night hung out after school. Night, honestly thought school went by rather quickly, April even introduced Night to her best friend, Irma Laginstein, much to Casey's dismay. But something about Irma just rubbed her the wrong way.
"Hey guys, my aunt wants me home to do some chores, see you tomorrow" April said, walking away. She then turned around and waved. Night smiled and waved back and Casey yelled "Later Red".
"Let's go home" Night said, while pointing in the direction of the apartment.
"Actually, Casey Jones wanted to catch a movie" Casey stated, while rubbing the back of his head. Night raised an eyebrow. "Really?" Night asked.
"Really" Casey answered. He walked up to Night. "Go home alright, I'll be there in a couple of hours" Casey said, reassuringly.
"Alright, be back soon okay" Night replied, softly. Casey nodded and smiled. Night started to walk away, but couldn't help but think about how suspiciously Casey was acting. She knew something was up and she was going to get to the bottom of this, and maybe just maybe this could be the reason why Casey is never at home in the night.
Casey waited for Night to leave, once she was out of sight, he walked over to a corner and peeked to see if she was still there, empty. Casey leaned against the wall, took out his phone, and pressed a red shell-shaped button. He waited until someone finally answered.
"Yo Casey, we doing this or what?"
"Yeah we're good, Raph. You're still in the sewers, right?"
"Yeah, just hurry up, man. Lameanardo and I made a deal and if you don't come in less than fifteen minutes, he and Dorkatello will tell Master Splinter about this."
"Alright, I'll be right over." Casey hung up and ran to a manhole cover, opened it, and went inside. What he didn't notice was a pair of greyish-brown eyes watching the entire scene.
