NMNT Chapter 4: Casey Jones VS Everyone
-The Lair-
Michelangelo and Raphael were having a little training spar, and it was going good until Mikey kicked Raph into some boxes.
"OFFFFF!" went Raphael as he landed on his back.
"Ha, nice fall Raphael," said Mikey in a mocking way, "Just come on back if you want some more of that."
Raph started to recover, "Rrrgarrggh; you've had it Mikey. Bro or no, you've got to go" he warned rather angrily. Then he leapt in the air and swung his fist, then his legs, then both of his fists.
"Good reverse punch. Nice roundhouse kicks. Whoa not a bad dragon punch either but you're just a little SLOW!" said Mikey while he dodged the aforementioned moves. Then he just smacked Raph hard against his face, making him lose his balance and falling again.
"Actually, MUCH to slow," said Mikey.
Then Raph angrily retaliated by punching Mikey hard and making him slide into the opposite wall and fall on his back. Presently Splinter, Leonardo and Naruto were there just in time to see what unfolded next. Raph started to angrily attack Mikey swinging both of his fists left and right as if to actually do some damage.
"You think you're better than me, DO YOU?!" shouted Raph as he and Mikey held each other at bay.
"No, you're just too cocky," replied Mikey as he threw Raph on to a table which promptly smashed beneath him.
Mikey started to walk towards Splinter, Leo, and Naruto saying, "Winner, and still champion, Michelangelo." He failed to notice that Raph growled and picked up a steel pipe. Naruto noticed and nudged Splinter.
"No. No you, youuuuu RRRARRRGGHHHH!" shouted Raph as he jumped in the air, kicked Mikey down and started to swing the pipe at him.
"Wait, WAIT!" exclaimed Mikey as he used his hands to shield his face from the oncoming blow.
Naruto grabbed Raph's arm and stopped him just in time, "Raph WAIT, have you lost your mind?!" he exclaimed.
Donatello ran to see what all the commotion was about. "You okay Mikey, what were you THINKING Raph?" Don asked. Raph then took a couple of deep breaths and began to calm down in order to realize the action he was about to do.
"I-I-Naruto, Mikey, I-I…..ugh," said Raph as he put a hand to the side of his head.
"Ahh my son, so angry," said Splinter gently as he comforted Raph. "Rage is a monster that will destroy you from within. Raphael, a true warrior finds balance in all things," he said. Raph slowly got up and took in what Splinter had told him.
"Master Splinter, I-I-I got-I gotta get some air," he said as he ran away. Leo made a move to go follow him but Splinter held him back, shaking his head left and right as he did so.
-The Roof Tops-
Raph quickly opened a door, ran outside and slowly came to a stop, breathing rather hard as he did.
"RRRRRARRRRGHHHHHH, WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME!" he shouted into the night.
"A lot of things actually; but for now we'll stick to the anger," said a voice beneath him. Raph's eyes widened as he looked down and saw Naruto standing straight with his feet on the wall, presumably with chakra.
"Naruto what're you doin' here?" Raph asked.
"Well someone had to make sure you wouldn't do anything drastic," replied Naruto as he climbed up to join Raph. They then sat side by side with their feet dangling over the edge.
"I-I don't know what came over me. One minute I was on the ground and the next you were holdin' my arm back. I don't even know why my hand was holdin' a steel pipe, it just was," Raph lamented as he put a hand up to his head.
"Well you're not alone there Raph," said Naruto, "I mean look at me. When Master Splinter first told me my back story, I just wanted to beat the living daylights out of the next thing that happened to cross my path. But Splinter talked to me like I was a friend and not a student or a son. He gave me a way to vent all of my frustration out without hurting him or any of you guys. Maybe that's the thing you need: a friend you can relate and talk to."
"Well who am I goin' to talk to you?" asked Raph.
"No, but someone will come along. Just you wait," replied Naruto.
-At Some Random Apartment-
"And in other news: more sightings of a vigilante wearing a hockey mask are being reported in connection to several brutal attacks on the notorious Purple Dragon Gang. He is alleged to have under world connections." Said a news reporter on the television.
A fairly muscular blue eyed man with a brown tank top and blue jeans with a white stripe on each leg was lifting a weight and watching the news report. As he was watching the report, he flashed back to an event in his childhood.
-Flash Back-
Fire was burning everywhere. And out of the flames came a group of Purple Dragons led by a very familiar lookingleader. He chuckled evilly.
-Flash Back End-
The man got up and put on some gloves.
"Purple Dragon scum, somebody's got to stop them," he snarled. He then walked over to a table and picked up a white hockey mask. Then he put it on his face while saying, "Somebody's gotta make them PAY!" He then picked up a golf bag consisting of hockey sticks and baseball bats. Then he stepped in front of a mirror, spun a hockey stick and said, "They'll pay, they'll ALL pay; cause Casey Jones is on the job!"
-Somewhere in New York City-
A random woman was walking home when she noticed a Purple Dragon gang member leaning on a building up ahead. She then decided to go through the alley. The gang member looked around before he followed her. The women walked through the alley, quickening her pace as she tried to hurry home. Then she saw two more gang members in front of her, blocking her path. They then advanced towards her. She then backed away but bumped into the gang member that was following her.
"Oh no," she whimpered.
"Hand over the purse sweetie and we promise not to hurt you…too much," said a gang member as he chuckled. Meanwhile Raph and Naruto noticed what was going on and decided to save her. But before they could, a sing-song voice rang through the alley.
"Purple Dragons," it said "come out and play." The voice then stepped out of the shadows. And it was revealed to be Casey Jones. He then banged a trash can with his hockey stick.
"It's that wacko with a hockey mask. Let's get him," said a gang member. Then all the gang members started to walk toward Casey.
"Looks like this is going to be good," said Raph.
"We'll see," said Naruto.
The gang members started to attack Casey, but he swung the trash can and knocked one member down. Then he swung his hockey stick and knocked a second member down. Then he swung his hockey stick behind him and knocked the third member down.
"No mercy scum. I'm puttin' you punks outta business…PERMANENTLY!" he exclaimed as he started to swing down.
"The guy's outta control," said Raph.
"Well stop him," said Naruto as both he and Raph jumped down from the roof top. Raph then grabbed Casey's arm.
"Hey!" exclaimed Casey.
"Easy there cowboy," said Naruto, "calm down; you stopped them, you did good." The Purple Dragon gang members started to run away.
"Aww man they're getting' away. Stay outta my business you FREAK!" exclaimed Casey as he punched Raph on to the ground. "You can run Purple Dragons, but you can't hide from Casey Jones!" He yelled as he ran after them. Naruto then picked up the woman's purse and gave it too her.
"Sorry about the mess," he said.
"Keep away from me you freaks!" she yelled as she snatched the purse from Naruto's hands and ran away. Naruto just shrugged and ran after Raph who started to chase Casey.
"You know Raph, I think we found the somebody you can talk to," said Naruto.
"Ehh whatever," replied Raph. Presently there was a noise ahead and a big shadow could be seen and it depicted what Casey was doing to the gang members. He was beating them with a hockey stick shouting, "You've stolen your last purse dog breaths!"
"Unbelievable this guy just won't quit," said Raph.
"Like looking into a mirror isn't it," remarked Naruto.
Casey then picked up a gang member and started to swing his hockey stick. Raph had had enough. There was too much blood shed than necessary. He ran up to Casey and kicked him down.
"I told you to cool it pal," he warned. Casey just got up.
"Yeah, and I told you to stay out of my way," replied Casey, "But since your ears don't seem to be working, then I'll get my point across a whole 'nother way." He then Swung at Raph who dodged his attacks. Then they were at a stand off.
"Listen, I'm trying to tell ya something here," said Raph, "but you're really workin on my nerves."
"Is that right?" said Casey. Then he started to swing his hockey stick again at Raph, but to no avail.
"You think you're doin the right thing, but you're goin about it all wrong. You gotta get control of yourself," Raph explained.
"Look freak, if you're protectin these Purple Dragon scum then you're in my way and you're goin down too," Casey replied as he jumped in the air and slammed the hockey stick down hard, trying to hit Raph but missed.
"Hockey season's over," muttered Raph. Then he leapt in the air and did a spin kick which knocked the hockey stick out of Casey's hands.
"Yeah? Well Baseball's in season and so are you, you freaky freaking weirdo. Batter up!," said Casey as he took out two Baseball bats.
"Can't you think of any better insults besides the word 'freak', it's getting kind of old," remarked Naruto. Both of them ignored Naruto.
Raph took out his Sais. "Fine then, play ball!" he exclaimed. Both he and Casey circled each other until both of them charged at eachother.
"Hey you gotta listen to me, you're angry I can understand that believe me, but what if you grab the wrong guy? What if you go too far? You'd get yourself in real trouble" said Raph. Casey ignored him and whacked him back against the wall.
"I got my reasons for doin what I do," said Casey, "and they ain't nothing to do with you." He then swung both of the bats down, but Raph blocked them with ease.
"Fine then you want to fight, then let's fight!" Raph exclaimed angrily as he kicked Casey hard in the abdomen. Casey then swung a bat and knocked Raph into some trash cans. Raph growled and he leapt in the air in order to deliver some serious damage to Casey by kicking him again. Casey was knocked on to the alley wall. Raph then unmasked Casey and he saw that Casey had the same look in his eyes like he did.
"What-what are I'm doin, we're on the same side. We shouldn't be fighting, we both just need to get a hold of ourselves. Take it easy chill" said Raph as he handed Casey's hockey mask back. Casey just picked up a Baseball bat.
"You know you're right," said Casey, "you've shown me the error of my ways. NOT! BATTER UP!" Casey then swung the bat at Raph, but then Naruto intervened by blocking the bat using his kunai knife.
"That's enough of that," he growled. Casey then saw that Naruto had crimson red eyes and slit like pupils. He then backed away, picking up the rest of his sporting equipment and composing himself.
"I can't believe you fell for that," said Casey as he ran off laughing.
"Yep, this is defiantly the somebody you can talk to," said Naruto, his eyes returning to normal.
Raph just growled and said, "I hate it when you make your eyes look like that, it's too creepy and scary." Then they both ran after Casey Jones.
-The Lair-
"See Don, we could very own Battle Shell. I even got a name for it: 'The Battle Shell'. I got it all figured out: Turbo Boosters, Double Action Traction, Cool Secret…thingies shooting out the back. We should be tricking out the armored car," said Mikey while he waved a piece of paper in front of Don, distracting him from his work.
"By 'WE' you mean 'ME' and I don't have the time," said Don, "There's too much to do around here. Besides, where would we keep the thing?"
"We can find a place. Come on Don please? Please, please, please, please, please? Did I mention that you're my favorite turtle?" pleaded Mikey.
"You know he's not going to stop until you say yes," remarked a voice behind them.
"Naruto," said Don in mild surprise, "I thought you went to check on Raph?"
"Shadow Clones, never leave home without them," replied Naruto.
"Then are you a clone or the real thing?" Don asked.
"A clone; Boss said he wanted to make sure Raph wouldn't get into any sticky situations," replied the Clone.
"SHHHH, Leonardo is working on perfecting his ninjutsu skills. Perhaps something you three should consider," said Splinter who was holding up two wooden boards.
"Does Master Splinter know about you leaving?" whispered Don to the Clone.
"No, you saw what he did to Leo. You think he would let Boss go, not a chance," replied the Clone in a whisper as well. Their attention was drawn back to Splinter and Leo.
"Leonardo: Leaping Split Kick!" commanded Splinter. Leo did as he was instructed to do and kicked the two boards, but he didn't break them.
"Argh," he said with an exasperated look on his face.
"Try again my son, it will come with practice," said Splinter.
Mikey tried begging Don again.
"Donatello, Donatello; if you build it, you will ride IN TURTLE STYLE!" He exclaimed.
"Here motor mouth, make your self useful and hang this up someplace nice" said Don handing Mikey some nails, a hammer, and a framed sign that read 'Sewer Sweet Sewer'. Mikey then found a spot to hang the sign. He then tried to hammer a nail on to the wall, but to no avail.
"Ugh, what's this wall made of," he complained. He swung the hammer even harder and faster, stubbornly trying to make a dent in the wall. But the end result was a bent nail. He left the wall only to return with a sledge hammer and a rail road spike.
"Alright tough guy, let's dance," he said. He then swung the hammer on the spike and it was placed inside the wall. He then hung the picture seeming rather pleased with himself. Then there was trouble. The wall started to crack around the spike as it made a rumbling sound.
"Uh-oh, said Mikey as the wall started to crumble. But as the dust fell Mikey said, "Whoa guys, look what I found." It was a blue door with patterns on it. Don, Leo, the Clone, and Splinter went to investigate what had happened.
"It's a door of some kind," said Don.
"Be careful," said Leo.
"Why are we whispering," said the Clone.
Don then put his hand on the door and it opened, revealing another room. The group walked inside and saw that the room glowed thanks to a crystal that was hanging on the ceiling. Then the door shut behind them. The Clone then promptly went *POOF* to relay the information to the original.
"I'm going to have a few words with him about using his jutsu wisely," remarked Splinter.
All of a sudden the room began to shake.
"Are we moving?" Leo wondered aloud.
-An Abandoned Garage/Warehouse-
A hole appeared in the floor and a pod shaped thing came out. The door on the pod opened allowing Mikey, Don, Leo, and Splinter to walk out and explore their surroundings.
"Where in the shell are we?" asked Mikey. Don then opened up the garage door.
"So the weird glowing chamber brings up to street level?" he wondered. Splinter sniffed the air.
"Hmmm, this warehouse has been abandoned for many years," he said.
"Great space, but it needs something," said Mikey, "Bathtub? No. Kitchen? Nu-uh. I know, a supped up Battle Shell right here. No, no right HERE is the perfect spot to keep the supped up Battle Shell. NO, NO, HERE….."
"I think he's trying to tell you something Donny," remarked Leo.
-A Random Alley-
"I know that big dope is around here somewhere," muttered Raph to himself. Suddenly a motorcycle came rushing through with Casey at the wheel. He then tripped Raph shouting, "I GOT MORE TRICKS THAN THAT FREAK BOY! You want a re-match; check me out Friday at central park." He then sped away.
"Seriously, he can't think up of any more insults other than freak? Guy's got no brain cell's left," remarked Naruto.
Meanwhile a Purple Dragon called up his leader.
"Yo Dragon Face, it's that guy. The one with the hockey mask, he's been fightin' some weirdo in a lizard costume and I'll know where he'll be Friday night."
"I want his head on a plate. Put everybody on alert, EVERYBODY. This guy's been messing with our business for months. It's time we started messing with him." The Leader hung up.
"See you Friday night loser," said the gang member.
"See you too," said a voice behind him. He turned around and Naruto gave him a knock out punch to his face.
-The Lair-
"I don't know who could've built this thing, but if we're going to use it then we'll need safety precautions and extra security up in the warehouse," said Leo as he, Splinter, Don, and Mikey stepped back into the lair.
"Piece of pie," said Don.
"Mmmm, piece of pizza pie," said Mikey. Just then Raph and Naruto walked in.
"Welcome home you guys," he said, "Man Raph you look like you got the shell kicked out of you."
"Yeah, it's a LONG story," said Naruto.
"But first, I-I-I wanted to apologize. Mikey, I'm sorry I got so outta control. And guys I'm really sorry," said Raph.
"Alright, who are you and what have you done with our brother Raphael?" asked Leo in a joking manner.
"Let's just say he's had a chance to think about the way he's been acting. I'll fill you in over dinner," said Naruto.
"Dinner!" exclaimed Mikey, "Now you're talking my language."
"What language is that? Nit-wit?" remarked Raph.
-That Night-
That night, Naruto and the others decided to go top side
"I don't know Raph. We should probably tell Master Splinter," said Leo.
"And have him stop us from goin top side? We have to find that vigilante whack bag and stop him for his own good. He's not a bad guy, just a little misguided," said Raph. Unknown to them, Splinter was wide awake and listening in. He then decided to flip on the switch that would turn on the electricity.
"Achhhemmm," he said.
"Busted," said Mikey.
"How many times have I told you not to sneak up to the surface?" Splinter asked.
"In this month?" said Naruto.
"512 times," answered Don.
"It is dangerous for you to go about openly in the world above," said Splinter, "You cannot be seen walking amongst the humans. They will not accept who and what you five are. It is as the great sage and warrior Kenji Hashimora once said 'Why walk when you can ride?' "
"Come again?" said Naruto. Splinter then smiled. "Take the truck," he said as the pod elevator opened.
-The Abandoned Warehouse-
As the Pod opened the doors, the five warriors walked out.
"Alright," said Raph, "We have till Friday night to make this Ninja Ready as possible."
"Let's get to work," replied Don
And so, the group worked hard day and night making the truck as ready as possible for the upcoming battle.
-A Week Later-
The Battle Shell was complete. But the five warriors had no time to lose. Naruto started the engine and pushed and flicked every button and switch necessary. And then the Battle Shell sped down the streets of New York City. Meanwhile Casey Jones hopped on his motor cycle and sped away to Central Park, unaware of the ambush that was waiting for him. As the Battle Shell reached Central Park, Naruto (who was at the wheel) decided to do some commentary.
"And on your left is Central Park. 843 acres of landscaped beauty in the center of the city," he said.
"Wait," said Raph as he pointed to Casey Jones, "there he is! Floor it Naruto, kep up with him."
"You go get him Raph," said Naruto, "Don whipped up something special for you in the back." Raph saw that there was a motor cycle, painted red.
"Like it?" said Don, "I call it the Shell cycle."
"Donatello, you are the turtle," replied Raph as he started up the motor cycle. The back doors swung open and Raph sped away to catch up with Casey. As he caught up with him, he shouted "HEY HOT SHOT SLOW DOWN!" Casey just ignored Raph and sped deeper into the park.
"Pull Over!" shouted Raph. Casey ignored him again. Raph then got impatient.
"I said 'PULL OVER'!" he shouted pushing the brakes on Casey's bike. Casey then front flipped on to the pavement.
"UGH, I can't believe I just got my butt kicked by a giant frog," said Casey. Raph just stood towering over him.
"Turtle."
"Whatever!"
"Look, I'm no fan of the Purple Dragons," Raph said, "I'll help you take'em down, but we gotta exercise just a little restraint."
"Save it, you don't know what you're talking about," said Casey.
"Try me," replied Raph. Casey took off his mask.
"Well a long time ago when I was a kid," he started
-Flash Back-
Fire was burning everywhere. And out of the flames came a group of Purple Dragons led by a very familiar lookingleader. He chuckled evilly.
"Some punks were shakin' my dad for protection money. They were the Purple Dragons. When he didn't pay, they torched our store."
A young boy was in the way of this leader. The leader grabbed the boy by the collar.
"Tell your old man punk: 'Next time PAY UP or else!' " The leader then threw the boy back on the ground. Then the gang walked away. The child would then forever have the image of the fire in his mind.
-Flash Back End-
"So don't tell ME how to deal with Purple Dragons," he finished.
"Just be careful," said Raph, "You're anger can take ya down, make you act just like them. My…Father once told me: 'A true warrior finds balance in all things'."
"Balance huh," replied Casey.
"Well as much balance as couple of hot headed whack bags like us can manage," said Raph.
"Me? You're the only whack bag" retorted Casey.
"Hey, I'm not half as crazy as you," retorted Raph.
"Sorry but for a little green dude, you are totally nuts," said Casey.
"Yeah well I'm not the one runnin around a hockey mask."
"I gotta keep my good looks, I'm savin this face for Hollywood."
"Well isn't this romantic," said a voice. Raph and Casey were then surrounded by Purple Dragon gang members.
As the gang closed in on them, it seemed like it would be the end for both Raph and Casey. Suddenly the lights from the Battle Shell appeared. As soon as the Battle Shell stopped, Naruto came out of the driver's side and said, "Need some help?"
"What do you think," said Raph. Naruto just smirked and formed his fingers into a cross shape. Then he shouted, "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" and instantly 5 Narutos appeared. Leo, Don, and Mikey also joined in.
"Friends of yours," Casey asked.
"Family actually," said Raph.
"I can see the resemblance," remarked Casey
"I'm the pretty one," said Naruto. Then the five heroes and clones plus Casey attacked at once. The Purple Dragons were no match for the collective power of the heroes. As the gang members were knocked down, Naruto took down the leader using one of his ultimate techniques. First his clones slid on the ground getting underneath him with their foots in the air while shouting, "NA-RU-TO" putting emphasis on the syllables. Finally Naruto jumped high in the air and kicked the leader down (not too hard mind you) while shouting the second phrase of his technique "UZUMAKI BARRAGE!" The leader then landed on the ground with a thud.
"Oooo, 10 outta 10," said Casey holding up all ten of his fingers. Raph held up all of his fingers too.
"Come on Raph, only a six?" remarked Naruto.
"A six is all I can give ya bro," replied Raph. Then he turned to Casey.
"I know I'm going to regret saying this, but I'm glad I met ya crazy man," said Raph
"Me too, and ya know something; I'm startin to see what you're all about," said Casey.
"You mean about balance?" asked Raph.
"Nah, I mean that you're a green mutant freak. But I like ya," replied Casey
"Again with the lame insult, can you use a different word other than freak," said an exasperated Naruto.
"Fine then, you look like a cat whisker boy," retorted Casey.
"THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT YOU STUPID COMEDIAN!" yelled Naruto as the others laughed.
PHEW man this took me so long, partly due to school, but here it is the fourth Chapter of NMNT hope you like it and leave a review.
