I recall it being really hard to write things down in the beginning, it was such a challenge to get words together, I gave myself like a week for a 1000 word chapter and sometimes I didn't make it. but then again that's more than I have the time for right now some weeks. :I 4/13


"No no no no! Don't go!" Donnie ran after his brothers as they quickly jumped across the stairs, he was fast, but not fast enough. He watched as they closed the shell raiser's door in front of him and drove off.

".. I need to get help." He quickly ran back, pausing a moment to think about who he could actually get help from, April? She wouldn't understand if he tried to call, he had to go out and find her. Which probably either way would be faster than trying to chase his brothers.. or..

"I am gonna have to intrude on Sensei's meditation time.." He sighted. But it was worth a try, and if he got through to him he could probably help. He carefully looked around, his mission was simple, avoid Yoda, and get to Splinter, no fuss, no clawed out eyes and hopefully someone who understood who he was. At least that was the aim.

Carefully he sneaked back into the lair, looking around for that evil thing, by the sounds she seemed to be in the kitchen.

".. Good, now I just need to.." He sneaked off towards the dojo and splinters room, after a short moment though he felt as if he were followed. Looking around the annoying cat was definitely sneaking on him, as if she hunted him.

"…" He looked at Yoda, she had frozen when he turned around, as if that would make him not notice her..

"Can you please NOT?" He complained, he knew the moment he turned around she would resume her "sneak" attack. He had definitely had enough of this and couldn't wait to get back to normal.

Glancing at the dojo he made a dash for it, she followed behind him. He just couldn't get why she was so persistent on bothering him.

"The lair is big enough to not run into each other! Why won't you leave me alone?" he yelled at her as he ran through the dojo, past the tree and darted for his Sensei's room. The door was closed.

"!" He turned and ran along the side, running around the tree with Yoda following behind.

"Oh come on!" He ran up along the tree and she followed as he climbed up, he ran out on a branch. She persistently followed. He could tell she wasn't going to let this go as she hissed and walked towards him.

"SENSEI! HEEELP!" He decided to instead make as much noise as possible, Splinter would be angry yes, but hopefully it would at least gain his attention. He jumped down and landed on the floor, quickly picking up his running again, she followed. Donnie managed to feint her at a sharp turn, gaining an extra few second, he quickly used the time to scratch on the door frames to his father's room.

"PLEASE OPEN THE DOOR!" Then he ran again. The running however did make him start to get more used to his body, it was good practice if anything..

He was starting to wonder if he might actually have a chance at keeping her at bay now. He could probably trick her if the right opportunity was presented. His thoughts of a counter attack was however interrupted when the door slid open and an annoyed rat looked through the doors.

"What is this noise?" He said in a controlled but slightly angry tone. Donnie immediately reacted and rushed forward, sitting in front of him.

"Sensei I'm sorry I just.." He realised his mistake when he could feel Yoda coming up behind him. He quickly covered down and put his paws over his face to protect it from the claws.

"..?" He was surprised when he didn't feel any pain, he heard the hissing but.. He looked up.

Yoda had jumped over him, apparently identifying Splinter as a bigger and more terrifying threat and had tried to attack him instead. Of which he had simply lifted her up in the neck and was now looking at her disapprovingly. He clearly disliked cats.

"I thought I told Michelangelo.." He sighted, looking down at the other cat, who acted a bit more peculiar, almost as if..

"Sensei!" Donnie wasted no time, this was probably his only chance, or he would simply get thrown out.
