Chapter 4
Classes...
November 20, Thursday Morning. April dropped off the guys in the front of the school like the day before. When they walked in, they saw the four girls standing to the side. They walked over and said 'Hi!'
The bell rung, and Lee said, "Well, let's go!"
So Leo followed Lee to the dojo. Raph followed Ray to the mechanics shop. Donnie followed Dani to the computer room. Mikey followed Mei to the art room.
1st Hour
Lee's POV
So, both Leo and I had Karate class. So, both of us headed over to the dojo. I glanced at him, and he looked kind-of worried.
I was a little worried myself too when I first started. My sisters and I are ninjas. We were trained by our mother, who was trained by Hamato Yoshi, a great ninja master. But she...
"Hello Miss Nekoyorokobi!"
I was snapped out of my thoughts when our sensei, Master Kiyo, the Karate instructor, greeted Leo and me. I bowed in respect.
"Good morning Master Kiyo, this is Leo, he is a new student."
Master Kiyo bowed to Leo, and he returned the bow. Then I left to go get changed, while sensei Kiyo asked Leo his size to get him an outfit. I got changed and came out. Leo was there with the rest of the class. I stood by him.
"Well class, we will start with practice sessions. And since we have a new student with us, I will let my top student practice with him."
Leo turned to me and asked, "Who is the top student?"
I grinned and replied, "Me."
Then I noticed that he glanced down to my belt.
"A black belt and at..."
"2nd degree and I'm 16."
"Wow..."
Then we began to practice. At first I didn't notice, then I realized, once I started using my ninja moves, that he mimicked me. Rather yet, he knew my moves. He knew how to counterattack and attack at the right moment.
"Your good!" he completed as he tried to kick me in my stomach.
I blocked it and replied, "And so are you!" Then we picked up the pace. Everyone moved to the sides to watch our fight. We began to move faster and the onslaught of attacks became heavier.
I did a flip backwards and a landed a fist right next to his head. His fist met the side of my face too.
"Tie?" I asked panting with exhaustion.
"Tie."
Sensei and the rest of the class crowded around us. We took our fist down and bowed to each other.
"Wow, no one has ever tied with Lee." said Sensei in disbelief.
"Thank you, sir." Leo said as he bowed to him.
So the class practiced till Kiyo Sensei let us go get change. I came back out and met Leo by the door. I slung my bookbag over my shoulder. Then the bell rung, and we headed out.

Leo's POV
I didn't think class would go that well. I thought I would "show-off" like brothers always say I do. But Lee, she was as good as me. Almost equal…hmm... Something about that is strange. Her moves were the exact same as mine.
Could Hamato Yoshi, Master Splinter's master, have taught someone else? Or...gasp!
I thought about the Shredder.
Could Lee work for him?
I looked at her as we walked to class. She was looking forward, and then turned to meet my gaze. She smiled, and I blushed. She turned her head back forward. I looked away.
Naww...
I saw a gust of wind pick up and bunch of leaves that were on the ground. Once we got into the building, we met up by my brothers and her sisters. Then we all headed for our next hour.
1st Hour
Ray's POV
Raph and me head over to the mechanics shop. He didn't seem all to interested.
"Why did you take mechanics in the first place?"
He took interest in my question and answered, "I have a bike, so I know my way 'round machines."
"Really now, I have a bike too!"
Then we entered the mechanics shop, which was really just a garage. We sat down at a work bench, and the teach., Mr. Reely--or as we lik' to call 'im, Mr. Wheely--began to talk 'bout today's lesson.
MINILINEBREAKMINILINEBREAKMINILINEBREAKMINILINEBREAK
Raph's POV
So we lef' ta class afta de bell had rung. Me and Ray headed out. She really did know her way 'round parts. Then somethin' hit me. Like a memory I had forgotten. I remembered seein' a girl on a bike. She had...
"Hey Raph! Ray!" I snapped out of it to see Fearless calling mine and Ray's name, so we jogged over and went ta our second hour class.
1st Hour
Dani's POV
So Donnie and I went through the commons area, up one of the many staircases that connected the first floor to the second, and walked into our fist hour class.
Don looked a bit...distracted, like he had many things on his mind. We walked in and were greeted with a 'Hello!' by Mr. Rushing, the Intro to B.C. or computers class--called by most of the students here--.
I sat down at the computer station I was assigned to. Donnie was talking to the teacher, and Mr. Rushing pointed to the empty station next to me. Donnie nodded and headed towards my direction. He sat down and flashed a smile to me. I returned the smile and began to type today's lesson.
Then Mr. Rushing spoke, "Class, we will have speed checks today!"
So, I showed the program, which was made for timed writing, to Donnie. Then I pulled up the same program. I began to type the required section. I finished after a minute, and my gwmp came up. It said that in one minute of typing two paragraphs twice, I had made no mistakes and my gwmp was 110, a new personal best. I glanced over to Donnie's score, and my eyes grew wide. He typed just about four paragraphs, no mistakes, and had a gwmp of 103.
"Wow!" I heard a voice come from behind me. "Dani might have met her match." Mr. Rushing said, not directly to the class but loud enough for everyone to her. Donnie smiled at me, and I smiled back. I wasn't the type of person that becomes jealous.
MINILINEBREAKMINILINEBREAKMINILINEBREAKMINILINEBREAK
Donnie's POV
So class lasted about fifty minutes, give-or-take a couple of minutes. The incident this morning was curious. A girl as-smart-as me. I did not think that was possible really. Then I remember something. It was the dream I had a couple of days ago. It was about a girl tinkering.
Could Dani be this girl?
Then we came upon my brothers and her sisters and headed off to our next class.
1st Hour
Mei's POV
Me and Mikey entered the art room on the second floor after we headed nearly across school and up a staircase. The class teacher was Mrs. Morgan--she is grouchy--. We sat down at the same table as Nolie. Me and Nol. continued on our own projects, while Mickey began on a new one. We continued to work and talk--even though Mrs. M. said not to--. As we worked, I glanced at what Mikey was doing. His project was really good. He glanced up and smiled at me. I smiled back.
MINILINEBREAKMINILINEBREAKMINILINEBREAKMINILINEBREAK
Mikey's POV
So, we work through most of the class. It was fun to talk to the dudettes that sat at my table. We work on our projects, which was fun. Back at the lair, the guys wouldn't let me work in peace. So yeah...anyway, as we work, something in my mind kept nagging at me. Like, if I had déjà vu, but if only I could remember what it was. Something about drawing. I looked up from my drawing to see Mei working really hard on hers. Her eyes glanced up at me and a smile crept on her face. I smiled back and then it hit me.
Like in an old cartoon where the person gets an anvil dropped on his head.
The dream I had. I remember seeing a girl drawing.
Could this dudette be that girl?
The bell rung and snapped me out of my thoughts. We packed our stuff up and waved good-bye to Nolie. We head down the stairs to go to the second hour class.
2nd Hour
The eight of them walked into the World Geography room on the first floor. Teaching was Mr. Wilkinson. The girls sat down in the middle of the room and the middle of the rows. One girl was in one row. The guys sat down behind them.
"Ok class, we have four new students with us!"
Everyone turned to face them, with the exception of the girls. A couple of girls smiled and giggled, and the guys in the class mouthed 'Hey!'
"Now class, let's finished copying our notes."
Mr. Wilkinson turned out the lights, and everyone began to copy the words on the overhead. This lasted all of the class period.
3rd Hour
The bell rung, and everyone split up to head to their next our class, their second elective--with first hour being the first--. Lee, Ray, Leo, and Raph headed to the gym. Dani went to the band room, and Donnie to the mechanics shop. Mei and Mikey headed upstairs to the Cooking Class.
3rd Hour
The four students headed to the gym.
"Do you have your uniform?" asked Lee, who turned to face her sister next to her. The two girls were leading, and the guys were following.
"No, the Fo-...it was ripped. You?" replied Ray. Lee shot her a harsh glance. The guys looked at one another. Leo raised his eyebrow.
"No..." Lee muttered as she lowered her head.
"Gasp." Ray exclaimed while putting her hand to her mouth, "you, forgot something!"
Lee's head then shot up, and she glared at her sister. "Shut it!" she spat at her. Ray then shrugged her shoulders and rolled her eyes. Lee rolled her eyes and focused forward. They opened the doors to the gym and were greeted by the couch.
Couch Mertens was a not-fat-but-not-skinny type of man. Average height for a forty year old man, and had little hair on his head. He was wearing a tradition type of gym teacher outfit. A white shirt, with sweat stains all over it; red gym shorts, which were a tad too short; and muddy tennis shoes. There was a silver whistle hanging from a necklace around his neck.
"Nekoyorokobi, why don't you have your uniforms?" he barked at them.
"Sorry, coach! Forgot!" both girls replied.
"Who are you?!" he barked again, which startled the guys.
"New students!" both girls replied, trying to get the guys out of trouble.
"Well, I will get you some uniforms, but for now!" he barked, and then blew the whistle after the statement, "TEN LAPS AROUND THE GYM!" Then all four of them shot off, trying to get away from the man. They ran around the gym several times without anyone breaking a sweat. Then around the last four, since the gym was so huge, they began to get tired. Finally, at the end of the last lap, they stopped. Ray dropped to the ground panting. The others were trying to catch their breaths.
"I...hate...him..." Ray managed to get out while trying to get some air.
Then the coach blew his whistle and yelled, "Get over here, and get ready for the next event!" Leo and Lee jogged over, while leaving Raph and Ray. Raph turned to face the fallen Ray.
"Help me up!" she said/demanded. Raph sighed and rolled his eyes. He then pulled her up by her hand, she had put out. Once she was up, they both ran over to the rest of the class.
"Ok class, we are going to play an old fashion game of dodge ball!" coached barked. He then explained the rules and split everyone up into teams.
The two girls and several other students were on one side, and the guys, Alex and his clones, and a couple of other students were on the other side.
"Ready...BEGIN!" the coach yelled out as he blew his whistle. Dodge balls began to fly. After about ten minutes, everyone, but Ray and Lee were out on the one side, and Raph, Leo, and Alex were left on the opposite side. The two girls looked at each other and nodded. Then they chunked the red, rubber, dodge balls, that were in their hands, at Alex.
Both hit him, and the coach barked, "Out!" Now, it was Leo and Raph against Lee and Ray. The guys then threw the balls so fast that it was impossible to see them. Not even a second too soon, the girls dodge by doing a back flip, each one back flipping away from her sister. The people on the sidelines were wide-eyed, and the guys were impressed. Then the girls picked up the balls and threw them just as fast. The guys side-stepped to dodge the balls. Then all four of them picked up balls. They reeled back their arms and threw the balls. All four balls impacted someone. All four were slammed against the wall. All of them were clutching a ball. Everyone ran to see if the new students were ok. Leo smiled an 'Ok' smile, and Raph nodded. The two boys looked over to see the girls, and if they were ok. They saw Lee walk over and talk to her sister. Ray nodded, and both of them looked over to the boys, and said something. The guys caught one word that was said, 'Shredder.' The guys looked at each other. Then the bell rung for 4th Hour.
3rd Hour
Dani's POV
I was the only one out of my sisters and our new acquaintances. I did not mind that. Sometimes I do wish to be alone. So I walked into the band room. Only a few people were in band, but it did not matter to me personally. I play the violin, or more specifically I am truly into playing the violin, for I can play numerous other instruments in many different categories. But, any who, I sat down in an empty chair in the semi-large auditorium like room. This room was used as a band room and choir. I place the case on my lap and opened it up. Inside was my instrument and sheet music. I placed the sheet music on the stand that was already before me. I then carefully took out my violin and placed it against my neck. Then I began to practice the music.
3rd Hour
Donnie's POV
After we had gone our ways to our 3rd hour electives, I had Mechanics. Dani had given a verbal map of where exactly the Mechanics Shop was. It was pretty far, on the opposite side of the building, but I still made it in time before the Tardy bell rung. I sat down at one of the many work benches and began on the assignment, which was to disassembly and reassembly a radio. A piece of cake.
3rd Hour
Both Mei and Mikey had Home Economics class. In that class was also the girls' friends Nicole and Nolie. All four of them were seat at one of the rectangular cooking table, with Nicole being the closest to the alley, Mikey next to her, Mei next to Mikey, and Nolie at the end.
"So, you are Mikey?" asked Nolie.
"Yep!" he responded in a cheery voice and a huge smile on his face.
"Cool..." Nicole chimed in.
Mei smiled at the attention Mikey had gotten. At least he wasn't being called a freak, she thought behind that smile. Then the teacher walked in and began to silence the class and regain order, since everyone wasn't in order.
4th Hour
Well, once again, all eight students were back together again for English class. They walked into one of the class rooms in the English hallway. The teacher of this class was Mrs. Sanders. Then they took their seats.
There were eight rows. Lee sat in the third row and second seat, while Leo sat left of her in the second row. Ray sat in the fourth row and fourth seat, and Raph sat in front of her in the same row, third seat. Dani was sitting in the fifth row and fifth seat, with Donnie next to her to her right. Mei and Mikey were both in the sixth row; Mikey was placed behind Mei, who was in the second seat.
"Ok class," Mrs. Sanders began, "we will all began reading the book The Pigman by Paul Zindel." Then they were all given a book and began to read out-loud.
5th Hour
After 4th hour ended, everyone headed to their 5th hour. Lee, Ray, Mei, Leo, Raph, and Mikey had Algebra 1. Dani and Donnie, on the other hand, had Geometry. Everyone headed to the math hall, which was on the second floor, right above the English hall. The six students, who had Algebra, went to Mrs. Tanner's classroom. The two, who had Geometry, went into Mr. Touchton's class.
When the six finally go into the room, Mrs. Tanner, the short and plump woman, assigned the boys books and assigned their seats. Then she began to bicker at Ray for not having hers. Of course, Ray didn't care. They sat down in their seats and began to work.
Lunch
After the bell sounded for everyone to go to lunch, the six that were in Algebra 1 were met in the hallway by the two that were in Geometry. They then headed to the cafeteria. Dani was talking to Donnie about math. Mei was chatting with Mikey. Lee and Ray were leading and were quiet. Leo and Raph were the last ones. Dani and Mei noticed and looked at each other. Then they both went up to their sisters, one on each end. Mikey followed behind.
"What up dudettes?" He asked.
"Oh, nothing Mikey..." Lee reassured, while flashing a smile. Ray rolled her eyes.
Finally, once they got downstairs and into the commons, they head over to the double doors that lead to the cafeteria. Waiting outside these doors, while every other student passed them, was Nicole, Katie, Nolie, and some boy the guys did not know. The boy was talking to Nolie.
"Kyle..." Dani said. The boy instantly jumped. He turned and let out a sigh of relief when it was only Dani and her sisters, but also raised an eyebrow when he noticed the four teens behind them. Once everyone was over to the four friends, Dani introduced the human turtles to the boy called Kyle.
He was wearing Khaki pants and a white shirt. He was about Dani's height. His skin was a pale white and his glasses were those thick 70's glasses. His hair was blonde and cut short. Once they got their friends, Dani pulled Kyle to the side. The rest ignored them, with the exception of Donni. He watched from the corner of his eye.
"Did you finish the program?"
"Yeah..." he said while handing her a chip.
"I will check it and see if you made mistakes."
"I doubt you'll find any!"
"We will see..."
She then stuck it into her pocket. Then they met back up with the group, and then finally went to go get their lunch, which was again pizza.
6th Hour
Sometime later, the bell rung and ended lunch period. Lee, Leo, Ray, Raph, Mei, and Mikey had Physical Science. Dani and Donnie had Biology. So, the six students who had Physical Science went to that class, the teacher was Mr. Nardini, and the two who had Biology went to that class, the teacher was Mrs. Herbert. When they got there, the boys were assigned books and seats. They then began reading today's lesson from the book.
7th Hour
The second to last bell of the day had rung. Once this happened, the group of eight students headed to a room on the first floor. Making their way through the crowds was the first step; the next was to get there on time. They barely made it to Mr. Wilkinson's room. He taught World Geography to them and also Transition. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, they had Health for this semester. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, they had Transition for this semester. The next semester it would flip.
Well, all the class time was used to discuss home budgeting and what would it cost to live in your 'dream' home.
End of School
They walked outside when the last bell rung. Kyle, Katie, and Nicole headed to the buses. Nolie walked to her home. April pulled up. Mikey waved goodbye to Mei and turned around to find his brothers and April snickering at him.
"Get in the car lover boy!" Raph mockingly said. Mikey face was a bright red as he stormed into the face. He didn't talk to any one of them.
back at April's...
Back at April's apartment, the guys and everyone else were discussing the day. When the part about gym came up, it arose a few questions.
"Are you positive that she said 'Shredder'?" asked Casey who was sitting on the couch along with April. Master Splinter was in the recliner, and the four boys were sitting on the floor.
"Pretty sure" Raph answered.
"Hmm..." Splinter hummed as he stroked his braided beard.
"What do you think Sensei?" asked Leo to his Master.
"I don't truly know myself, my son." Leo then sighed at that statement. He was hoping for an answer.
"Well," said April as she got up, "let's get to bed. You all don't want to be late for school." The guys nodded. The adults left the living room and headed to their own rooms, while the guys took up their spaces on the couch, floor, and recliner.
The girls step through the vault-like opening into a subway/sewer hub, which was round like. Lee headed forward and down a couple of steps into a large area which had bamboo mats covering the entire floor and a couple of dummies left in the middle.
Ray went to the right and around the training area, to half-way. There were two couches placed to face a TV hanging on the wall.
Dani also followed Ray, but she went into the door that was right before the TV. There was another door on the opposite side of the TV that also led into the same place. She walked into a lab like place and sat down on in front of a computer.
Mei went left and halfway between the front and the back of the place was a kitchen with an open doorway.
As Lee practiced on the dummy, she called out, "Ray, do you think it was weird what happened in gym class?"
"What happen in gym class?" said Mei as she made her way around the training area to the couch. Lee then explained that class event.
"Weird..." Mei said. Ray nodded and continued to watch TV. "What do you think Dani?"
Then the light haired brunette called out, "I don't know..." Mei sighed at that statement and watched TV with her second oldest sister.
