From here, the two masters converge...a rat and a red panda.
Chapter 3: Two Masters
Splinter looked at Master Shifu and said, "Please forgive my son, Raphael. He's usually like this back at home."
"Who asked you?" Raphael shouted.
He turned to Raph and completely grew a little furious and asked, "Did you raise your voice at your master?"
"See, between you and me, nobody yells at Splinter like that." Mikey muttered to Shifu.
Raph looked at Splinter in the eye and sighed in anger and said, "Forgive me, sensei."
Shifu chuckled softly and said, "I can see that he has no discipline."
Splinter was taken aback from that comment. He turned to Shifu and asked, "What is that supposed to mean?"
"Have you ever tried to keep his anger down?"
"Yes, I have. I always keep his anger down and not to take it out on his brothers and fight for no reason."
"What does that tell you?"
"It says that he'd rather be at New York rather than here in China."
"Where is this New York?"
"America."
"That's far away from here."
"3,0000 miles to be exact." Donny said.
"Oh, sure. Now he tells us all." Raph said.
"Raphael! Enough!"
"Is he always like this?"
"All the time. Sometimes, I don't even know when it stops."
"It's strange, though."
"What about?"
"Are you their master?"
"Yes."
"Well, that's a surprise and a shock."
Splinter felt as if Shifu is criticizing his methods on being a master, when he's been mastering his sons for a long time. He told him, "I do not know how it is in China, but from where I'm from, it takes discipline, loyalty, trust and also teamwork to fight together."
"And where are you from?"
"New York City."
Shifu didn't figure out his accent and asked, "I'll ask again? Where are you from before New York City?"
"I was from Japan."
"May I ask why were you sent from there to this New York?"
"I was a pet of my master, Homato Yoshi and I copied everything movement he does and learned the secret arts of ninja. Then, he was killed by Oroku Saki while I was living in New York City. I lived in a sewer for some time and then, I came across four baby turtles and they were surrounded by a strange glowing ooze and me and my sons were mutated. As time went on, I started their ninja training and they were highly intelligent. Later, I gave them all names from an old renaissance art book--Leonardo, Michaelangelo, Donatello and Raphael. We have lived together ever since."
Shifu kinda gets what has occured to Splinter and asked, "So, you were their master?"
"Yes. And also their father."
Hearing that made Shifu's heart drop down and he felt as if they have this connection, but didn't want to show it, because he still wanted to see if his sons know his training skills. He turned to Splinter and asked, "How often do you train your sons?"
"Everyday."
"We do training every day as well."
"So, what do you guys do?" asked Mikey.
"Kung-fu."
"Really! Do tell me more." Raph said.
Leo groans in embarassment and asked, "Why don't you just stick my head inside a toilet?"
"I might stick yours in a swamp."
"Zip it!"
"You zip it!"
"Are they always at odds with each other?" asked Shifu.
Splinter groans in embarassment and said, "It does not stop there. Trust me."
"It gets worse?" asked Zuko.
"Much worse."
Shifu turned to Zuko and asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm Zuko, Splinter's long-lost brother."
Shifu was surprised that he had a brother and asked, "How long have you found each other?"
"Five minutes ago."
"Well, this is a first. Welcome to the Jade Palace."
"I would like to see how you do."
Shifu was more than interested to let them see what they do and he's even more interested to see what they do. He turned to Splinter and asked, "How long are you gonna stay in China?"
"About three and a half weeks."
Shifu nodded his head and told them, "Come follow me."
The others followed suit and Mikey asked Shifu, "Is there pizza in China?"
"Come again?"
"Excuse Michaelangelo. He can be a bit of a....pizza-holic."
"Sensei! Come on, I can stop anytime I want."
"Like that's gonna happen." Raph said.
"Without pizza, you would definitely quack so hard, that it would be torture."
"Dude, shut the quack up."
LOL This is awesome! Tell me is this not supercool! This is gonna be an awesome crossover! Stick around for more!
