Heyo! In this chapter the ninja will meet the ninja. Yeah! 'Cause you all have been requesting this so, here it is! The ninja meet the ninja! Yeah!

Oh yeah, and I want to clarify something. In this story, Casey's already come into the picture, he won't be in this fic, but he will be mentioned, and while Donnie was hurt by April ending up with a human, he's gotten over it. Also, April will not be an elemental kunoichi. Sorry, fans of April...

Aaaaaaand, one last thing:

I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while. Especially since I had no excuse whatsoever, I just really didn't feel like writing.

But I'm over that now, so... yeah.

~Chapter 3: How Old?~"And now, were just really bored because there's nothing to do." Raphael finished Leo's story.

"Wow." Cole said, impressed with their story. "And I thought we had a weird life."

"Yeah, well, when you're a mutant, life's..." Donatello tried to find the right words.

"Complicated." Leonardo finished.

"Yeah, complicated." Donatello continued.

This type of conversation had been going on for the last two hours. After seeing each other, Splinter and Wu had told the ninja to get to know each other and retreated to Splinter's room to escape from the endless days of training reckless young-adult ninja.

Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, Kai, Cole, and Zane had gotten a conversation going fairly quickly, learning as much as they could about each other.

Michelangelo, Jay, and Lloyd were bored at first, until they started a separate conversation about various video games.

"And, how long have you known April?" Kai asked.

"A loooooong time!" Michelangelo cut in, but was ignored by his brothers.

"About 4 years. Back then, we were 15. April was 16, but she's still almost a year older than me." Leonardo said.

"Okay, so she's older than you." Cole confirmed.

"How old are you now?" Zane asked.

"Well, Mikey and I are 19 and Raph and Leo are 20." Donatello answered.

"Yeah, Raph's birthday was just 2 months ago." Leonardo added. (A/N Yes, I did make them different ages. I'm sorry if you don't like that, but it's my fic, so... yeah. Anyway...)

"And April's 21 now." Raphael finished.

"Oh, cool. Yeah, we're all 20, except for Nya who's 19 and Lloyd who's obviously younger. He's 12." Kai said.

"NO WAY!" The six cringed at the sound of both Jay and Michelangelo's loud voices.

"Guys!" Michelangelo screamed. "Jay and I have the exact same score on Danny Saves a Princess!" (A/N Yes, that is a parody game of Donnie Saves a Princess. If you don't know what that is, flippin' look it up! Thank you.)

"We're practically twins!" Jay said. Then he paused and thought about what he said. "In video games..."

"Yeah!" Michelangelo agreed, before high-five/threeing Jay and turning back to the two humans and talking about other games.

"Anyway..." Cole and Leonardo mumbled in unison.

"So, Lloyd's really a ninja?" Donatello asked.

"Yeah, why?" Cole asked.

"Well, he's... young." Leonardo said politely.

"Yeah, how can a kid fight?" Raphael asked.

"He just... can." Kai said, understanding their confusion because that's how he felt when he first met Lloyd.

Just then, Wu and Splinter came out of Splinter's room.

"My sons." Splinter said.

"Students." Wu said.

The nine ninja looked up at the two wise (and old) ninja masters.

"We have discovered a new prophecy." Wu said.

The five human ninja looked at each other, while the turtles seemed confused.

"What does that mean, Sensei?" Leonardo asked.

"It means you will be teaming up. And we need nine new ninja."

LOL! So many ALLITERATIONS! Ugh, I'm such a nerd. Oh well, please review. And, random question, what do you think the new ninja will be like? (And yes, they will be girls.) Or, what should they be like?
