Soooo Awkward times with the turtles...
LOL enjoyyyyy
~KP
Kaila's POV
I yawned after a couple of gaming sessions and a random Disney movie marathon, I was exhausted. I looked up at the clock and it read eleven a.m.
'Damn I've been up all night and still no phone call.'
I turned off the T.V. and headed for a nice hot shower, for some odd reason I couldn't shake the feeling of being constantly watched...There was no one home...it was just me, all the windows and the door was locked plus I had the blinds down...but I still felt like I was being watched, or maybe I'm just paranoid?
Sophia's POV
Well...it took me a while. At first I went into shock then fainted...the second time I came back to consciousness I was in denial, saw a rat man thing and fainted...again. But the third time I kind of calmed down a bit and accepted the fact that there were mutant turtles and a rat living in the NYC sewers!
'Wait till Kai- no I can't I promised' I sighed it sucked having to keep something as big as this from your best friend. They offered pizza which I found to be just a bit surprising. We ate while master Splinter talked to me about how he had come from Japan and found the four turtles covered in slimy goo and came to the rescue...a while later he and the turtles were mutated and ever since then they've lived in the sewers together. The turtles had given him the name Splinter, and master Splinter chose four names from his favorite renaissance book for the turtles Leonardo aka Leo, Donatello aka Donnie, Raphael aka Raph, and Michelangelo aka Mikey, all four posed as their names were called and I giggled. We headed back to the living room and Leo started the conversation.
"So what do you do Sophia?" Leo asked.
"Please call me Sophie or Soph. Ummmm well I'm trying to finish college, and I work for a decor company that does weddings, birthdays...you know parties, plus I wait tables at this twenty-four hour diner with Kai." I smiled, Shadow started playing with Mikey chasing him around their lair.
"That's a lot of work." Leo added smiling at me...wait...am I forgetting something?
"Yeahh...Gotta pay the bills and college fees...Oh my gosh Kai!" I shot up out of my seat, everyone looked at me startled, even Mikey and Shadow stopped in their tracks.
"Kai?" Donnie asked confused about my sudden outburst.
"My roommate. She must be worried sick about me! I was talking to her last when I was attacked. I need to get home now!"
"I suggest that you stay here until my sons go out on patrol tonight, to guarantee your safety. It is close to getting dark anyways" master Splinter suggested.
"Ok...but can I call her to tell her I'm ok?" I asked.
"Here you can use my shell cell" Donnie said handing me a cute turtle shell shaped phone.
"T-PHONE!" Mikey yelled, I giggled.
"Wow...did you make this?" I asked raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah" He smiled.
"I'm impressed" I complemented.
"Thanks...it took a while to make...I had to redesign it over and over before I could get it right. First I-"
...
...
...
While Donnie was with Sophie on the phone talking to her roommate Kai, the turtles and master Splinter were having a conversation alone in the kitchen.
"Umm master Splinter.." Leo began.
"Yes my son?"
"Well...it was-I-we were kind of surprised that you didn't get angry with us for bringing another human home and that you were willing to trust her."
"Hmmm" he hummed.
"Masta Splinter..errr- ya sure you're not mad at us? She was hurt an' it wasn't my idea it was all Leo's idea. I still think we shoulda left 'er there." Raph tried to explain. His master might've trusted the girl but he didn't, not one bit.
"Not only am I good at ninjitsu and raising four sons, but I am also good at reading people, miss Sophia is of no danger." he explained stroking his beard. His expression almost looked like it hid something, like he knew something they didn't but the turtles didn't want to push it. The turtles bowed and walked to the living area to see that Donnie was talking to Sophie about his invention. Everyone seemed comfortable with her around, she seemed like a sweet and innocent girl but Raph still wasn't buying it.
Kaila's POV
"...Hello?" I answered unsure why I got a blocked call.
"Heyy Kai" I heard from the other line...Sophie?
"Oh my god Sophie?! Where are you?! Are you ok?!" I asked surprised to hear her voice.
"I'm fine calm down" she laughed.
"I thought you got kidnapped or something! I even called the cops! I was worried sick! Why didn't you call earlier?!" I scolded.
"I was attacked, but I ran into...some friends who helped me out. I passed out 'coz one of the guys hit my head with a rod...and now I'm at a friend's place and uh I'll be back later tonight" She answered. Friends? Who did she run into that late?
"Ohkayyy, is umm Shadow there too?" I asked nervously. I hope he was ok too.
"Yup. He's doing fine...he made a new friend. We'll be back tonight" I heard mumbles then Sophia giggled, well at least they're ok and not kidnapped.
"Well it's good to hear that you're ok and not kidnapped, we'll have to stop by the police department later...'coz ummm they have your phone..."
"They have my phone?" She asked worried.
"Um yeahh remember I called the cops? Yeahh well I uh got to that McDonald's you told me about and saw a bunch of guys knocked out cold on the ground along with your phone. I looked everywhere but couldn't find you, then the cops showed up and asked for the phone so they can get an idea of where you might be...and then they escorted me home." I explained.
"Ohh woww I'm sorry that you had to go through all that trouble, I would've called you earlier...but I was unconscious" Sophie laughed nervously.
"It's alright at least you guys are ok. When are you coming home?" I asked.
"Ummm...around 10:30ish?" She replied.
"Alright. I'll wait for you, I'll make some pasta." I added.
"Ok" I heard her smile through the phone.
"Alright. Take care see ya soon girly" I smiled.
"You too byeeee"
"ha-byeeeeeeee" I sing sang.
Sophia's POV
"Great job Raph and Mikey I don't think you were loud enough" I rolled my eyes thinking...no, knowing that she heard them.
"Talk ta Mikey it was his fault" Raph spoke clenching his fists, he gave Mikey a death glare.
"Sorry" Mikey put his hands up in defense giving him a cheeky smile, Raph growled and started chasing him around the lair.
"AHHH!" Mikey screamed trying to get away, everyone rolled their eyes making me giggle. Where they always like this? I'm positive that those two and Kai would get along just fine.
"She's a good friend" Donnie spoke.
"Yeahh. We've been best friends since high school...I was new and she was like the first person to talk to me when I was sitting alone during lunch, and then she introduced me to her friends and I kinda became a part of her group" I smiled remembering all the good and bad times we had together in high school.
"She sounds nice" Leo complimented.
"Yeah she is wait till you meet her though" I laughed and they all looked at me uneasily.
"Umm she can't know about us." Leo confessed.
"Oh right..." I frowned.
Kaila's POV
I opened the cabinets in the kitchen to find only half a box of the curly Fusilli Barilla pasta, and two jars of pasta sauce. Great. I walked over to the fridge and prayed to find something, anything in there but was disappointed. There were a few bottles of beer, soda cans, butter, cream cheese, string cheese and a few eggs.
"Looks like I need to go grocery shopping" I huffed, man I hated shopping in general. I ran to my room and took off my shorts and oversized men's Giants jersey. I went over to my closet and slipped on a comfy pair of dark jeggings, a red plaid flannel t-shirt and my black biker type faux leather jacket, I grabbed my keys and phone and walked out the front door with my black Adidas high tops on.
Sophia's POV
"What are you playing" I asked sitting next to Mikey on the couch. He seemed pretty into the game he was playing.
"Mortal Combat...Wanna play?" Mikey asked looking at me from the corner of his eyes.
"What's Mortal Kombat?" I asked him and he gasped at me like it was an insult.
"Mortal Kombat? Never heard of it?" he asked a bit surprised.
"Ohhh yeahh yeahh, I did" I lied watching him as the game spoke "Finish him!" Mikey landed the last blow and cheered in joy. I giggled at his silliness.
"Wanna play?" he asked handing me a controller.
"Yumm naa I'm good, I like watching." I smiled, he was just like Kai when she was into her games...except she would tune me out. He picked another high scoring player from a list and challenged him and this went on for about fifteen minutes before I got up and started walking around. I was so bored!
I walked over the bridge to see some Japanese styled door, I cautiously opened it to reveal a huge dojo of some sort and...there was a giant tree at the back of the room.
'How?' I asked tilting my head. All of a sudden I felt a hand on my shoulder making me scream and jump.
"Hey it's just me" Leo chuckled, I let out a few breaths and gave him an evil look.
"Don't do that! I almost had a heart attack." I managed to get out.
"Ninja" Leo pointed out. He walked into the dojo and sat under the tree, he folded his legs, closed his eyes and relaxed his body. It looked like he was...meditating. I took my shoes off, placed them by the door and walked towards him.
"Are you meditating?" I whispered to him.
"Yes" he answered in a monotone voice, chills ran up my spine. I undid my wavy dark brown hair and tied it in a messy bun. He hadn't budged at all, so I sat in front of him. That's when I turned my head to the side and saw a whole wall of weapons.
"Woahh" I whispered and looked at him again.
Leonardo's POV
I felt her eyes on me.
"Yes?" I asked not looking at her.
"Nothing." I peeked at her, she was concentrating real hard on me. I closed my eyes again. She was making me feel...uncomfortable.
"Do you want to try meditating?" I asked not opening my eyes.
"No. I just remembered how my mom used to meditate in the mornings." she simply replied but kept her eyes locked on me.
"Try breaking my concentration" I smirked taking in a few long breaths. I felt another presence in the dojo...Raph.
Raphael's POV
"That's not gonna work princess trust meh" She was makin' silly faces at him and then she started pokin' at him.
"Princess?!" she asked a bit annoyed.
"What?" I asked.
"Sounds weird." she crossed her arms.
"Kay I'll just call you Soph" I walked over to my punching bag.
"What are you doing?" she asked, I picked up my hand wraps and started wrapping 'em.
"Gonna blow off some steam" I told her.
"...Wanna try?" I asked raising an eye ridge.
"No. I'm good." She sat down on a bench and watched me wrap my hands. Ohkayyyy...she's weird and I usually don't say that 'coz Mikey's usually the captain of all things weird.
Donatello's POV
I bursted into the dojo after Mikey refused to help me install our new surveillance cams we snagged from the purple dragons...I worked really hard on it to modify it, getting rid of the bugs and glitches, making it my own, and getting rid of trackers they installed in its software.
"Anyone wanna help me install the new surveillance in the sewers?" I asked holding up the device. Leo didn't move and Raph just gave me a blank stare.
"Don't you all volunteer at once." I sarcastically spoke.
"I'll help!" Sophia smiled, well at least someone was eager to help.
"Really? You don't have to Sophia" I gave a weary smile, she walked towards me.
"Sophie or Soph, and I'm bored so I'm gonna help you" she smiled.
"Alright" I smiled wide, she walked out of the dojo picking her shoes up that she left by the door and followed me through the main tunnel to a dead-end.
"Umm..that's a dead-end Donnie" Sophie pointed out.
"Watch" I smirked and pushed a hidden button causing the wall to shift out-of-the-way.
"Wowww, that's really cool." her eyes twinkled. We walked down a few pipes setting up the lairs new security system and she kept rambling on and on about her little sister, her roommate Kai and both of their families.
"Soo her last job blew up?" I asked suspiciously, as we headed back to the lair.
"Yeahh and she's been searching for a new job ever since. Funny thing is she just started and was only an intern...she's been going through a rough time, ohhh and she's kind of a techie like you" she elbowed me.
"It would've been nice to know her, but we like to keep our existence known to a limited amount of people." I got to the wall and pulled the lever, typed in the code and the pipes started moving out the way allowing the wall to open the entrance to the lair.
"That was even cooler than the inside" she squealed.
Michelangelo's POV
"Alright guys leave the last zombie so we can get pack-a-punched" Everyone agreed and I looked over to gamer's player and it nodded in agreement. He..or she never really talked...I followed the player to the bank's underground vault. We collected and built the parts and then we all got our guns packed. We were set for the next round.
Sophia's POV
I sat back down next to Mikey to see he was playing the zombies game Kai usually plays and Donnie headed off to his room I think?
"Hey is that black ops?" I asked him out of curiosity.
"Black Ops 2 and yes" he answered not taking his eyes off the screen.
"Who are you playing with?" I asked.
"Ummm..." he clicked a button and the scores and gamer tags were now on display.
"Wait...gamerkai13...that can't be.." I whispered squinting at the screen, then Mikey clicked the button again returning to the game.
"Was one of them gamerkai13?" I asked him, he clicked the button again, and then once more making the names and scores disappear.
"Yeah, she's one of my friends" he replied.
"That's Kai! You're playing with my roommate!" I squealed.
"How do you know?" he asked.
"Well that's her user name duhhh, she made it in like middle school" I explained getting more excited, I guess she got distracted and started playing...or maybe she's stressed she always played a shooting game when she was stressed.
"She's not that bad, she only went down once in the last nineteen rounds, she's pretty good...but she never really talks much."
"Yeah she's good!" I cheered. Leo stepped out of the dojo and sat next to Mikey watching him play.
"It's almost time for patrol" Leo smirked knowing Mikey was too into the game to even think about walking away from the screen let alone go out for patrol!
"Wait! If I want to talk to you or call you guys how do I-"
"-got that covered. Here" Donnie handed me the T-phone slash shell cell.
"I already added all of our numbers on it." he said.
"Wow thanks!" I smiled causing him to blush a bit.
"Just don't say T-phone self destruct" Mikey spoke causing the phone to slightly implode and burn out.
"-orrr that happens" he spoke again, causing Donnie to growl at him.
"Sorry dude..." he apologized. Donnie headed back to his lab and handed me another one watching Mikey cautiously as he played his video game.
"And that's why I have extras" he glared at Mikey.
"Thank you I love it" I smiled at him.

Soooo Sophie just met them soooo she's a bit shy...doesn't really know what to say or do . But since she talks when she's nervous ...
Things will get better when time moves on ... and when the turtles SEE Kai very soon...
Somehow Kai is in the middle of everything huh? She knows Casey, she knows Mikey, Sophie is her best friend and they all somehow know each other?
Coincidence? hmmmmmm ...
And who do you think Sophia should be paired up with ? ... and as for Kai ... well we'll get to that later ;)
Review, favorite, and follow ! :)
