Chapter 6: Unexpected Surprise
Tanyta's POV
Donatello, Michelangelo and Raphael were walking Gloria, Jasmine and I home for a good night sleep after a long night at the club.
"Here we are," I said happily as we pulled up at our apartment building next door to a bank.
"Well, ladies, did you want us to walk you inside because you never know who may have followed or if anyone is in your apartment already?" Mikey joked. Ria and I giggled at him while Jas just gave a smirk.
"Oh, don't worry about us Mikey; if anyone is in our apartment, Jas here, will scare them away. Right Jas?" Ria asked.
"Of course, I will, you can't live without me watching your backs all the time. Also no one hurts you but me," Jazzy answered. We all gave a good-natured laugh at the joke.
"Well, if you're sure, we'll see you around won't we?" Don asked.
"Yea, we'll see each other again. No idea when, but hopefully soon," I answered.
"Sounds great," Raph said. "Catch ya later girls." He gave a wink to Jas as he and his brothers headed off.
"Bye guys," we called. We headed inside, up to our apartment.
"Those guys looked hunky. But Mikey looks hunkier," Ria said with a dreamy look on her face.
"I must say Raph sure was hot with his red tuxedo. I felt like it was a sauna in that club with him in that," Jas mumbled, with a smug look on her face. She must've wanted no one to hear her. Too bad for her, I did. I gave my own smirk.
"What about you Tan? Who did you think was cute?" Ria asked, I felt my face heat up.
"I… uh… I… I have to say… um… uh… Donnie," I mumbled the last part, hopefully they didn't hear me stutter or see that my face was red.
"You're blushing," Jas said with a smug grin, and nope, they did notice, I sighed.
"And I'm sure you said Donnie, hermana," Ria said stretching out Don's name.
"Where's Kiara? She was supposed to be here straight after us" I said, trying to change conversation without Donnie in it.
"She must still be with Leo, man he was a hunk, him and Kia were probably meant for each other," Jas said with a sly smirk on her face.
"Yes, they did look like a nice couple," I agreed. "Did you see her blush when she kept looking at him, she has it bad for him."
"I so saw that, I'll be teasing her when she gets backs…" Ria continued on but my thoughts were with Kiara. Where are you Kia? Please be careful chica, return to us safe and sound. I looked out the window as I thought this, hoping she will be careful and not come home injured.
"…But not if Miss Queenie Bee can't keep her filthy slutty hands off of him, they won't. But Leo doesn't like her. When she went to do her second song and gave Leo a wink, he shivered slightly," Ria continued. I was pulled out of my thoughts when she mentioned that.
I missed most of the conversation as I was thinking about Kia.
"Well, at least Leo doesn't have an interest in Miss Slut now. Kia has him all to herself," Jas said.
"Yea, that maybe true but remember, once Stacey has her mind set on something, she goes to any lengths to get want she wants," I reminded them.
"That's true, but if Kia and Leo love each other so much they should be fine and not be tricked into loving anyone else, right?"
"They aren't even together yet, Ria. But if that ever does happen, you're right. They won't be fooled," I said, hopefully I finished in my head, for if Stacey still tries to get him, she will stop at nothing. I looked back out the window, thinking of Kia.
Leonardo's POV
I don't know why, but I have a feeling that Kiara kept me behind with her because she had questions for me from the other night. We started heading out of the club and walking back to her place for the night.
"Hey Leo, I know this may sound weird and rude but how hard is your chest?" Kiara asked blushing.
"Um… not that hard, at least I don't think so. Why?" I replied awkwardly. She must have felt my hard plastron as a turtle when I saved her.
"It's just that… did you save me the other night?" she asked, no blurted out.
"Uh… what makes you think it was me?" I asked, trying to lead her off the topic a bit, but no such luck.
"The guy that had carried me back home had a gentle voice, like yours, that exact same voice. Also, when I was on the verge of unconsciousness, I saw a blur of green and blue. And since you're wearing blue, I immediately thought it was you, but the chest of the guy was harder than the normal male chest" she answered as we continued walking. Time to confess then.
"Yea, my brothers and I were on a patrol run when we heard an alarm go off at the bank that we were not far from. We went to check it out and saw you beat the snot out of them, but when you were knocked back into the wall, we jumped down and helped you. But we… we were in disguise, we have plenty of enemies who want to destroy us, so we keep our real identities safe." I said hoping to God that she believes that small lie. I really want to tell her, I do, but sometimes it's hard, especially with this sort of secret. She could just turn and run away and scream.
"So, what you're trying to say is that you're some kind of superhero?" she asked.
"Yea, I guess you could say that," I answered. Well, Mikey always wanted to be a superhero, may as well go along with it, if only for a while anyway. I looked her way and noticed she was looking down at the ground and saw that her hair bangs framed her face. I couldn't keep my eyes off of her.
"Were you on the building next door to our apartment that same night?" she asked.
"Why you ask?" I answered.
"Well, later that same night, I looked out the window and noticed a real bulky guy with a blue fabric piece around his face, over his eyes I believe and the tails of the fabric were blowing in the wind. I had this feeling he was looking straight at me in my eyes as I was him. Then the figure disappeared" she continued. I wish I could tell you the truth Kiara, but will you still look at me the same way? I asked myself.
"Yea, that was me, in my disguise," I lied. I don't like lying and I'm horrible at them but will she look at me the same way if she found out the truth?
"Yea, I don't know how or why, but when I heard your voice and saw the colour blue, I thought of him," she stopped thinking long and hard. "I didn't know at the time when I first met you, but my conscience kept telling me it was you as a completely different being. Don't know why," she continued. That got me worrying. What if she finds out it was me as a turtle and not a disguise? I've got to tell her the truth but what will Master Splinter say? I thought long and hard. Stuff it, I'll tell her, she'll probably find out later on anyway, might as well get it over with then I stopped and looked to Kiara, she looked back at me.
"Kiara, I have something to tell you," I started slowly.
"Alright, what is it Leo?" she asked, the way she says my name it actually gives me the tingles.
"Um… it's about my disguise… uh…" I stuttered. How do I say this? Kiara, I'm in disguise now, my real identity is a giant talking turtle. That will go down well, I'll tell her that, even if it doesn't sound ok. "Kiara, when you saw me that night, my disguise…" I almost made it when I heard rustling in the nearby alley.
"Looky here boys, wes got ourselves a pretty lady and her boyfriend," a thug's voice called from the shadows. My eyes widened, that was the same voice of the person who cornered me in that alley earlier today, course I would've gotten myself out easily, but he was also the guy who tried to force himself on Kiara. This can't be good. I looked to the shadows and there he was with his crew of about ten men, all holding weapons from baseball bats, to chains, to golf clubs and several of other weapons. While the thug and Kiara were talking, I escaped to hide in the shadows.
Stacey's POV
"There she is boys, the bitch who did this to my face. And her boyfriend who knocked me unconscious after I tried to get it on" I had heard a thug complain about his face. I was simply talking with my posse about Kiara and her pesky friends. I looked to the voice and sure enough there he was, a thug with a green spiky hair was the one who talked, his face was badly busted, dry blood ran down the side of his face (obviously, he doesn't know the word, shower or freshen up) and a purple dragon tattoo was running around his neck down his chest. His type of clothing consisted of long baggy black pants and a black tank top with skull and crossbones on the front, with a black leather jacket over. What is it with guys and leather jackets? I asked myself. They are so last season.
When he said he wanted to get it on with Kiara, my stomach seriously twisted and turned, who would want to get it on with that slutty bitch?
"She will pay, don't you worry Spike, we will make sure of it," another guy called to the one who spoke. I guess he's the leader and his names Spike, fitting. The guy who addressed Spike was a Caucasian male with a purple mohawk, he had the same sort of styling as Spike except on his shirt it had a broken heart with a knife stabbed through it. I had an idea on how to get rid of Kiara once and for all. Because he hates her and I hate her, he'll get rid of her for both me and himself. Haha, Stacey you are a genius. I mentally patted myself on the back at that thought. I told the girls to follow me.
"Are you talking about the chick in the blue strapless dress?" I asked from behind another thug in the group. This thug was bald and had on a baseball cap, he had the same clothing style as the other two but the colour of purple, orange and yellow on his shirt which showed a dragon of some sort.
"What's it to ya?" Spike asked snarling.
"Oh nothing, I just thought you wanted to get rid of that bitch and I could've helped ya, but since you don't want my help I'll just leave you to it than," I said. I was checking my nails out as I was talking to them but then started to walk away with my friends because they didn't want my help, making sure to sway my hips in a seductively manner, to draw him in to helping me.
"Who do you think you are talking to me like that?" Spike snarled.
"Dear me, don't we have a nasty temper. My name is Stacey Meredith Henderson, daughter of John Henderson. And I could give you something much more appealing to the eye. Like say $10,000 in cash" I said. Being the daughter of a millionaire has its advantages and this maybe my chance to get back at Kiara.
"What's in it for ya Miss Henderson?" Spike continued to ask. Defiantly leader of these thugs, if he's the one asking all these questions.
"Oh nothing, except for Kiara to be destroyed for what she done to my hair. And for that guy she's with to be mine and make her jealous, even in hell," I said. Kiara is so gonna pay for that little trick of hers; it wasn't even funny at all.
"Alright, how about this, we kill her for ya and we get $1 million no less, plus a little extra which include some fun with you lovely ladies, sound good?" Spike bargained.
"You got a deal, but I'm afraid that only $10 grand is the highest I'm giving ya. If you do your job nice and messy I may give you me and my girls to play with, but if you don't do it and she lives you get nothing. Do I make myself clear?" I replied. I am aching for some fun with a guy, even if this guy is a thug, I just want someone to rock my world.
"Sure, we got ya, but we'll do this as long as you keep your end of the bargain and pay us," Spike said.
"Of course, I'm a girl of her words," I said. Ha, these guys are pathetic; I'm surprised they haven't even picked up on the lie. If they complete it I won't be giving them $10 grand, I'll be giving them less. This is going to be exciting...
"Alright then Miss Henderson, we'll get right on it, her and her boyfriend is leaving now," the guy with the mohawk cried.
"Oh, and one last thing boys, leave the guy with her alone okay. I want him unharmed," I said politely, anyone could be fooled by it. It was a neat trick of mine that I could get away with anything from it.
"Ok, no problem, destroy the girl, leave the boy, got cha," Spike said. Then they got up and left to chase that fucking bitch and destroy her.
"Stacey, are we gonna follow them and find out if they kept their end of the bargain?" Christine Holland asked. I looked to her and the others.
"Come on girls, let's go and enjoy ourselves right here in this club. We won't follow them," I said while laughing.
"But how will you know if they kept their end of the bargain?" Cadence Gravel asked.
"Oh, I will know, because no one can turn down that amount of money, or a chance to rock my world," I said evilly while laughing. The girls following behind with their own laughs.
Spike's POV
That bitch Stacey, who da hell does she think she is? She was all about getting rid of that girl, Kiara; I think she said goldie's name was. Anyway, when we headed outside, we waited in an ally not that far away from the club. We waited until we could hear the two approach us. When they were close enough we made ourselves known.
"Looky here boys, wes got ourselves a pretty lady and her boyfriend," I called to the others.
"Oh, it's you, I didn't recognize you, did you get a new face reconstruction or something?" the little bitch asked with a smug look.
"You did this to me you fucking bitch," I snarled.
"That was me?" she questioned. "My, I'm afraid you got the wrong girl, and I can't believe you would have been defeated by one. Being a big strong guy that you are," she continued. I growled.
"Oh, so you think your funny bitch, well newsflash, you don't have your boyfriend here with you anymore, he must have got scared and ran off leaving you all alone," I teased her. And sure enough the fucking bitch's boyfriend wasn't around anymore, she was looking around frantically. So, while she wasn't looking, my boys approached her. She fought well, but we overpowered her and I walked up to her undoing my zipper on my pants and undressing her with my eyes.
I was and still am going to destroy her but not without having some fun with her first. I was close enough to touch but when I went to pull her dress down past her breast, my hand burned up.
"You little bitch" I screamed as I slapped her then started closing in on her again.
Kiara's POV
When I heard that voice, I instantly froze. Oh great, him again. Why can't he leave me alone? Seriously. Oh well, I guess he's going to get me back for what I did to his face, and what Leo had done to him as well. After the sarcastic remarks, I fought trying to free myself from their grips when they had hold of me. But what really got me was when Spike said that Leo left; well he didn't say it like that more like boyfriend. He's not my boyfriend! At least not yet I hope. God Kiara, stop thinking like that at the moment, these guys have you pinned and one guy is going to rape you. Pay attention and try to get free! I told… more likely growled at myself.
But anyway, when he said Leo left, I felt heartbroken. He said he saved me the other night and then he decides to bail out on me and not save me a second time… or is this the third time. Oh, it doesn't matter. The point is, Leo left me behind, probably to save his own skin. I saved his skin before Spike and his men did anything to him and what does he do in return, run out on me. How nice of him to do that. Especially since I need him now, more than ever to get me out of here.
I fought more and more to try and get free, but it was no use, they had killer grips on my arms. Spike went to grab the top part of my dress, probably to pull it down to show my breast, I shivered at the thought, but before he could pull it down he jumped back with an…
"OUCH!" I don't know what happened, but I can feel fire running through me, I was shocked when he jumped back holding his hand that looked to have been burned, my eyes widened at the sight. What the hell? How did that happen? All these questions were running through my head at seeing the redness on his hand.
"You little bitch!" he screamed as he slapped me across the face which pulled me out of my thoughts, then he started closing in on me again. I don't know what was happening with me but I was so angry and I felt some sort of fire running through me like I'm a volcano and am about to erupt.
I screamed and all of a sudden, some fireballs I could feel were coming out of my mouth as well as my hands. They made the thugs holding me in place to let go. Once I had calmed down, I looked to Spike and could see him with his hair all singed and gone; all that was left was a bald, black head. Whoa! What just happened? I'm getting light-headed… I fell unconscious, but not before hearing Spike growl.
"I am so going to kill you, you fucking bitch!" he screamed out.
"I don't think so pal, not while I'm around," a voice called from the shadows. I know that voice, Leo. I knew you wouldn't leave me… I think I had a few tears in my eyes. After that I couldn't see or hear anything.
Leonardo's POV
When I left Kiara alone, I felt guilty, but I needed to turn back into turtle form, so I could have my 'babies' and be able to defend her. When I transformed back into my turtle form and had my katanas in hand, I was about to attack when all of a sudden I heard Kiara scream then I saw her throw fireballs out of her hands as well as spitting out of her mouth. The thugs that were holding her in place had gotten hit by the fireballs coming out of her hands and made them let go of her. Once I saw Kiara had calmed down, I looked to her and saw her becoming dizzy and swaying a bit like she was drunk. She fell to the ground unconscious.
When I looked to the Purple Dragon mob, I saw that the leader had a black bald head from his white skin and green spiky hair. I better make quick work of this, and then get Kiara out of here. Also, that's a good look on him, better than that spiky green hair. I chuckled at the thought.
"I am so going to kill you bitch," the thug said.
"I don't think so pal, not while I'm around," I said as I defeated them and left then there for the police. I walked over to Kiara to check her pulse, at first touch on her arm I jumped away, my fingers felt like they were on fire. What the shell was that? I asked myself. I left her be for a while to let the night air cool her down a bit. Once I thought she was cool enough I went to pick her up again, I touched her arm to make sure that she was cool enough to be picked up. Before I picked her up I had checked her pulse and have felt one, I sighed in relief.
"Donnie, will be able to fix you up" I said as I picked her up "I'll take you to him so he can check you over then return you home" I continued talking to her softly as I was heading to the rooftops to head back to a manhole, I thought I felt another presence, besides that of the thugs, I looked around and found no one. Maybe it's just my mind playing ticks on me. I'll meditate on this once I get back to the lair and see how Kiara is doing. I jumped from rooftop to rooftop to find the nearest manhole leading to the lair.
Mysterious Female's POV
I stood in the shadows of the same alley as the girl and what appears to be a giant turtle, walking on its two back legs like a human. I saw the girl getting picked up by the turtle, I keep wondering if it was just my imagination or if there really is a giant walking turtle. Anyway, I saw what had taken place with the girl throwing and spitting out fireballs and I wondered if she is the one that I am supposed to find and bring back to my home-world, Demontopia or if it is another demon from my world.
For those who don't know what Demontopia is, I'll tell you. Demontopia is a place where demons rule and the rulers of the planet are the cat-demons, the current ruler is King Ross.
He has a daughter that he knows about, but has no idea where she is now. According to him, eighteen years ago, he had met a mortal woman, who he had fallen in love with. He left her after his daughter was born, because he had duties on Demontopia, he had to leave, he never knew who his daughter was, not even a name, once he knew he had a daughter he left. We demons are immortal, but half-demon, there's no telling if you are immortal or mortal. But looking to this girl, she looks nothing like him. I better call him and tell of my findings. I conjured up a ring of fire that acts like a mirror.
"My Lord, I bring news," I said, I didn't say good or bad, because I don't know what you would call it. I kneeled in front of the fire mirror as a figure appeared.
"Speak," he said. "What have you found out about her?"
"All I found is a girl who walked in an alley with a boy," I couldn't say turtle now could I? "I found out that this girl has fire power," I finished.
"Where is this girl and boy heading?" he asked.
"I presume the boy is walking the girl back home," I answered, I didn't want to give him the idea that she had been kidnapped.
"Good, follow them, make sure he takes care of her and doesn't do anything to her," my Master said.
"Of course, my Lord," I replied. "But if I may, My Lord, how do you know it's her?"
"Call it father's instinct," and with that he hung up. He may be the leader but that doesn't give him the right to push me around, his own flesh and blood. No matter, I will find that girl of his if it's the last thing I do. I will find her, wherever she is, I told myself. I decided to leave the alley and follow the turtle and the girl. Where are you, princess? I asked myself before disappearing into the night.
Michelangelo's POV
I was happily playing my video games with Raphael, I love to watch him lose against the almighty, great and powerful; Michelangelo. Donatello was, where else, his lab. Making a whosiwhatsit, whatever he calls his cool toys. I couldn't exactly focus on my games as much as I use to, but I always still win. Instead, my mind is stuck on a brown haired, emerald green eyed girl, who goes by the name of Gloria Diego. Before we left the apartment at lunchtime, she gave me her number, so whenever I wanted to talk to her, I can call her and we'll chat all day or night if we wanted. I pulled out of my thoughts to continue playing against my older brother.
"Haha, be prepared to lose once again Raphael. The Miketser is gonna be champion again!" I hollered out to the lair.
"Can it Mikey, I'm trying to concentrate!" he said.
"Whoa, you and concentrate, not a good mix bro," I joked.
"Hardy har har, keep laughing knucklehead. Cos concentration don't work for you either," he continued. "It's not even in your vocabulary."
"Oh really?" I asked.
"Really," Raph confirmed.
"It may not be in my vocabulary, but I concentrate better than you when it comes to video games dude," I replied smartly back to him. He was about to say something even smarter back (or so he thought), but held back when we heard the front lair door open, revealing Leonardo carrying with him, Kiara, bridal style.
"Dude, what happened?" I asked.
"You know Master Splinter is not going to be happy about this right?" Raph said.
"I know Raph, but I couldn't leave her, and I'm sure her friends would've freaked if they saw a giant turtle carrying their friend in, unconscious might I add," Leo defended.
"That's what the watch is for Fearless," Raph counted. I could sense a fight coming on.
"What's going on out here? I am trying to concentrate and you all are being really noisy… Leo why'd you bring Kiara down here?" a voice said. We looked around to the lab door and saw Donatello walking out from it and walking towards us.
"Never mind that dude. The real question here is will Master Splinter approve of this" I asked.
"Will I approve of what Michelangelo?" as if on cue, an elderly voice from the room across from the living area called, I looked around and saw a five foot four grey rat, wearing a red kimono with his black beady eyes looking at me, to my brothers than to the unconscious Kiara in Leo's arms.
"Leonardo, who is this young woman? And why did you bring her into our home?" he asked in a raised voice, sometimes when he raises his voice. It scares me, but other times, I can handle it, like now for instance.
"Master Splinter, I was walking Kiara home from that club we went to tonight. When we stopped to talk for a second, we were then approached by Purple Dragons. I was about to intercept when they had grabbed and held her in place, the thugs were about to do unspeakable things to her, but then she screamed and I saw… fireballs coming out of her hands and mouth. After she had calmed down, she collapsed. So, I thought that her friends would've freaked seeing me that I thought that here would be the best place for her. Just until Donnie looks her over then I'll take her back" Leo said. There was silence for a while. I hate it when it's quiet; unless it's when everyone is asleep I don't mind the quiet. But right now, the only noise heard is Kiara's breathing and little moans.
"Hm… alright, but once Donatello has looked her over for any injuries, she is to be returned to her friends, before they become worried. Donatello, take Kiara into the infirmary and see to it that she has not been too badly injured during her fight, I will meditate on how she conjured up… fireballs. That isn't normal for a human," Master Splinter ordered my genius brother and left for his room to meditate. Does anyone have a feeling that he knows something that we don't?
"Yes Sensei," Donnie complied. He took Kiara from Leo and disappeared into the infirmary. It was quiet once again, so I decided to break it because I hate it so much.
"So, Leo, didn't want the friends to see you huh?" I asked trying to make a conversation.
"Yes Mikey," he replied.
"And you didn't bring her here just because you like her right? Knowing full well that Nyta could've looked after her as well…" I pressed on.
"Where are you going with this Mikey?" Leo asked.
"Oh, nowhere, I just thought that you brought her down here because you, oh, what's the word… love her," I said stretching the word love. I saw that Leo was blushing a little so I instantly knew that I hit the nail on the head. Cool!
"I don't love her, I just thought that if her friends saw me they probably would've freaked that's all," Leo denied. It seems that I wasn't the only one who noticed, because Raph decided to put his two cents worth in.
"Your red face says otherwise Fearless," Leo was wide eyed at that and walked off to his room for bed, or to get away from us.
"Just be quiet you two, you don't know anything," he said before shutting the door. His door was opened again to have Leo peek his head out "and by the way, I was in turtle form, that's why I brought her here, thank you". He then shut the door again.
"He has the hots for Kiara big time bro," I said to my older brother in red who, beside me, was still in the living area.
"Sure does. Haha, I can't wait 'til morning where we tease him even more," Raph laughed, I laughed along with him for a bit.
"Well, it's getting late, I'm heading to bed, night Raph," I said as I walked to my room.
"That's new, usually you fall asleep out here after playing too many games," Raph said.
"Felt like going to my room early tonight," I said. "Had one wicked party tonight and it completely wiped me out."
"Alright then, night bro," Raph called back. I walked into my room, shutting the door behind me. I walked over to my bed and plopped down on my bed dreaming of the beautiful brown haired girl, friend of Kiara's and the love of my life, Gloria Diego. I can't wait 'til tomorrow where I get to see the beautiful Gloria again, and with that last thought I fell asleep and entered dreamland.
Donatello's POV
I had finished checking Kiara over and noticed that she doesn't have anything bad that needs immediate attention. All vitals seem to be normal, her pupil dilation is normal, her blood pressure and heart beat are normal. Bottom line, everything is ok.
I was on my laptop in the infirmary, just looking through some medical websites when the door opened. I looked to the door to reveal Leo, my blue banded brother. I heard what the others said out there to him, so I won't bother with teasing him… yet.
"Hey Leo, why are you still doing up?" I asked.
"I just came to check on Kiara," he answered.
"Oh, and why's that?" I asked with a smirk.
"Wanting to know if she's okay for me to take her back to the apartment is all," he said with an expressionless face at the moment, but his eyes betrayed him. He was worried and wanted to know if Kia will be alright.
"Well, good news is that she is alright, no major injuries or damage happened, just exhausted and overworked herself," I answered for him.
"That's good, is it alright, if I take her back to the apartment? The girls probably are worried for her," Leo asked.
"I don't see the harm in that. Maybe get Nyta to look after her for a while and tell her to monitor her, just to be on the safe side," I said.
"Thanks Donnie, you're the best," he answered.
"Yea, I know," I grinned at him. "Oh, just to be on the safe side, maybe head over there in human form instead," I joked.
"Alright, geez, why are all of you teasing me about it? You guys have a crush on the other girls, but do you hear me tease you?" Leo asked.
"No, we don't, it's more fun teasing you instead bro," I answered with a chuckle. He sighed.
"Whatever. I'll take Kiara home and be back soon," he answered.
"Alright, but don't do anything we wouldn't do," I couldn't help but chuckle and give a smirk of mischief, which isn't like me.
"What?! You know I never would do…" he started quickly
"Whoa, relax bro, I'm just playing with you," I said trying to calm him down.
"Donnie, not in the mood for jokes at the moment all right," he stated firmly as he picked Kiara up bridal style and headed out the door to take her home. After that, I couldn't help but be happy for my brother, for he cares for Kia more than he lets on. I hope that Nyta and I could have a relationship like that, where I can be myself with this thought I went to bed for a good night sleep after shutting my computer down.
Jasmine's POV
It was getting late by the time Gloria and Tanyta were heading to bed for some much needed shut eye. I was still waiting up for Kiara. When she gets home she's going to be in so much trouble, I told myself. She should've been back by now. Where are you Kia? I started to dose off but woke instantly I can't fall asleep now. Not yet anyway I kept telling myself. But my eyes couldn't stay open. I'll just close my eyes for a bit, and I did just that.
DEMON~DEMON~DEMON
I woke up to someone knocking on the door. Who could that be at this time? I asked myself. I got up and walked to the door, but not without passing a clock, which I looked at and to my surprise only said 2am. This person better have a good reason for waking me up this early. I reached the door and opened it. At first, I didn't know who he was except he had black hair and hazel eyes, but once I rubbed the blurriness from my eyes and looked at the person, I noticed instantly that it was Leonardo and he was holding… KIARA!
"Leo, what happened to Kiara?" I asked uncertainly.
"Now, Jas, I know this may be strange but Kiara and I were attacked, by PDs," Leo answered. PDs? Oh, he must mean Purple Dragons, I've heard of that lame gang.
"What happened to Kiara?" I asked again.
"She's fine, she's only exhausted, she fought the gang and then made some fireballs and was left weak," he answered. Fireballs? Seriously, Kiara made fireballs?
"Tell me your joking Leo, Kiara couldn't conjure fireballs. No human could, it's impossible," I said.
"Well, I'm sorry but she did, and she just overworked herself, no need for panic, she's quite alright. Donnie checked her out. Everything's fine," Leo reassured me.
"You took her home, for Donnie to check her over. Why not bring her straight home and let Tan check her over? Pervs," I answered, grabbing Kia out of his arms.
"Jas, please, our home was closer to where we were, and if something was wrong with her than I didn't want to risk the chances, so I took her to my home to make sure that she was alright. That's all," he answered. "And I was going to bring her back here, straight after, which I did."
"You're right. Sorry Leo, it's just that Kiara is my best friend, and I care for her a lot, I guess it's just what we best friends do," I answered.
"I understand, I'm the same when it comes to my brothers and friends," he agreed.
"Well, I guess I should thank you for bringing her home. Thank you, Leo, and I'm sorry for accusing you and Donnie for what I thought was going to happen," I said, holding Kiara closer to me.
"You're welcome. And don't worry my brothers and I aren't like most men. We care about other people's privacy and their needs. We would never do anything inappropriate to any woman or anyone for that matter," he continued to say.
"I know that now. Thanks," I said as I looked to him.
"Just get Nyta to monitor her just in case, Donnie's orders," he tried to make a joke, which wasn't all that funny.
"Alright will do. And thanks again Leo," I said as he turned to leave.
"No problem, happy to help," he said as he walked off back to his home.
"You got some explaining to do in the morning sis. Big time," I said to no one in particular. I walked to Kia's room and put her straight to bed. After that I went to my room and slept 'til morning.
DEMON~DEMON~DEMON
I awoke to someone shaking my arm.
"Jazzy, time to get up sweetie," I heard a voice, I think it was Tan, trying to wake me up.
"What time is it?" I asked groggily.
"Nine am, come on we need to get up and find Kiara," Gloria said as she came in my room behind Nyta.
"Kiara's home, she's in her room now," I said sleepily. "Now let me sleep for a bit longer." I closed my eyes for a little longer.
"She is? How do you know?" Ria asked.
"Leo… he came last night… brought Kiara home after being… ambushed by PDs," I answered.
"Why didn't you wake us up then?" Nyta asked.
"Didn't want to wake you… 'til morning," I answered for her. "Now, can I go back to sleep please."
"No, come on, get up. We need to see Kiara," Ria said.
"Alright, I'm getting up," I growled. As I was getting up, Ria left the room to Kiara's room.
"It's your turn to cook breakfast sis okay?" Nyta said.
"Yea, yea. Oh, Tan?" I called.
"Yes?" she answered.
"Leo mentioned to monitor her, no idea why, apparently, she was exhausted after fighting off the PDs or something," I said.
"Sure, get up and get ready, Mikey rang Ria earlier and they said they'll arrive at eleven," Tan said smiling.
"Really?" I asked, really excited in seeing Raph again.
"Yes, really. Well I'll go to see Kiara. She has a lot of explaining to do," she continued.
"I know," I agreed. "Well, get out and I'll get up." I smirk as the girls left the room. I then pulled the blanket off of me and got up. I grabbed my clothes and had a shower. After fifteen minutes in the nice hot shower, I got out and got dressed. After getting dressed I walked out into the kitchen to start some breakfast. Scrambled eggs and toast, will do today, I'm in the mood for eggs.
I finished making eggs and toast when the girls came into the kitchen.
"Eggs and toast this morning, right?" Ria asked.
"Yes, Sherlock. I didn't feel like cooking anything difficult, and besides I felt like some eggs," I answered.
"Right! Sure, you did sis," she said.
"Shut it and eat your eggs, you," I growled out.
"Alright, I'm starving," she said. I let out a silent growl and ate my own eggs. While we were eating, Nyta had entered the kitchen.
"Eggs on the table Tan," I said.
"Thanks Jas," she answered.
"How's Kiara?" I asked.
"She's fine, nothing major. She's in the shower now and will be out soon," she answered. I nodded at her answer.
"Hey girls," a certain Australian accented person called from the doorway. Speak of the devil.
"Hey Kia, how you feeling hermana?" Ria asked.
"Yea, fine. Exhausted as heck but all good," she answered.
"Good, now spill, what the heck happened last night?" I asked. She closed her eyes and started thinking, remembering what had happened last night.
"Well, Leo and I were walking along the sidewalk talking about stuff, when I heard a familiar male voice. The same guy who I tried stopping the other night. He… I have a feeling he was wanting to destroy me after what I done to him twice now. He wanted to do unspeakable things to me, but then something strange happened. They had me trapped, two goons held my arms while their leader came forward, unzipping his pants. He went to pull my dress down when I felt some strange fire flowing through my veins and eventually… fireballs came out of my mouth and hands" Kiara said hesitantly.
"Wow…" Nyta and Ria said together. They looked at me and me at them, then we burst up laughing, and rolling on the floor (in Gloria's case).
"Fireballs? Like actual fireballs," Ria asked.
"Yes," Kia said as she didn't falter in expressions.
"That's impossible, no human can conjure fireballs, it's not possible," Nyta agreed with her scientific methods.
"I know, but I'm telling you that's what happened?" Kia said as she just sat there. We sat in silence for a while when we heard the bell ring.
"I'll get it," Kiara said as she got up and left. She walked out of the room and to the door, not at her usual pace; she must be upset that we teased her about fireballs.
"Oh, guys, hi, how are you?" she asked whoever was at the door.
"Whoa, dudette, you don't look too good," the surfer accent of Mikey sounded from the door.
"I guess, I'm still just a little tired, from an awesome night, last night," she answered. "Come on in."
"Thank you, Kia," the gentle voice of Donnie sounded.
"The girls are in the kitchen," Kia continued.
"Thank you," the other gentle voice of Leo continued. Not long after, the four guys we met yesterday was standing at the doorway, they were wearing the same clothing as yesterday.
"Hola boys. What brings you here?" Ria asked.
"Oh, nothing much, just the usual, bored and wanting to do something fun with friends," Mikey answered.
"If you don't mind everyone, I'm going back to bed for a bit, I don't feel good," Kiara said as she was rubbing her forehead. I also noticed her hazel-brown eyes lost its shine, lost its happiness, it looked completely blank. She didn't look well.
"Alright Kia, I'll be in with medicine later ok, get plenty of sleep" Nyta said. And with that she left the kitchen back to her room.
"What's wrong with her?" Mikey asked.
"We don't know to be honest. Since she was asleep when you brought her home Leo, she didn't seem out of the norm, instead around this morning, she just seemed… distant, closed off, her eyes seemed to have lost the shine that was there," I said.
"Oh, well, if you want, Leo can go and talk to her for ya," Raph said.
"If it's okay with the Doc. Doc," I joked looking to Tan.
"Well, I don't see the harm in talking to her. I guess it's alright, just let me get her medicine and you can take it with you to her okay?" she said as she got up and collected the medicine.
"Sure," Leo said as he glared at Raph.
"What?" he asked. Leo didn't say anything, all he did was glare.
"Here Leo. Give these to her, she knows to take them," Nyta said as she gave the medicine to him.
"Yea, otherwise she's in trouble with the Doctor here," Ria and I said in unison. We all gave a small chuckle even Leo before he headed off to the room that Kiara disappeared to.
"You think Leo will get her to talk?" Nyta asked.
"Trust us, if anyone can get a stubborn person to talk, its Leo. He's like a master at it," Mikey said. "He can even get Raph to spill the beans about certain things."
"I'll take your word for it then," Tan said.
Leonardo's POV
As I made my way to Kiara's bedroom, I couldn't help but feel guilty and concerned for her. Concerned because she was unwell and I want to know why, guilty for taking her to the lair and get Donnie to check her out and not bring her here and let Tanyta to check her out.
I arrived at Kiara's door; I knocked softly but loud enough for her to hear. At first, I couldn't hear a thing, no sound, no moving, I didn't even hear her sweet voice. Must be sleeping. I knocked again. This time I heard her call out.
"Come in," she sounded weak. I walked in the room and saw her on her bed, still in her clothes; she looked pale and more tired than I originally first thought.
"Hey, I just came to give you this medicine and maybe to talk. Or that's what my brothers wanted me to do," I said as I looked her in the eyes. She gave a small giggle from my babbling but then she started coughing. I raced over to her and sat on the bed next to her, I started patting and rubbing her back. The coughed subsided for a bit.
"Thanks, Leo," she thanked.
"You're welcome Kia," I replied. I gave her the medicine in which she took no problem. "Are you sick?"
"Just a cold," she answered simply.
"Are you gonna be alright?" I asked.
"Yeah, when I was living in Australia, I always get colds during the winter time and it would last 'til the end. It's not pleasant," she answered.
"Ok. Well, maybe it's just from the cool air," I suggested. It is quite cool around for an autumn day.
"Maybe. It'll subside soon, I'm sure, it's not winter so it won't last long," she answered. I can tell that she just holding onto hope to be better soon. Who would want to be sick? It's not pleasant. Although I haven't been sick in such a long time, I do know that it isn't nice and when I do get sick now, it's very rare.
"Well, I'll let you go back to sleep. Hopefully you get well soon," I said as I gave her a quick hug, I felt her stiffen a bit but relaxed and gave me a hug back.
"Thanks Leo, could you pass me that bin over there, because I may need to throw up soon, my stomach is doing all sorts of flips," she asked.
"Sure," I answered as I grabbed the bin and brought it over. "Here you go Kay".
"Thanks again Leo, your brothers are lucky to have a wonderful brother like you," she said groggily as she closed her eyes, the bin beside her bed. I couldn't help the small smile that came onto my face as well as a small blush. I turned around and walked out the door, shutting it behind me and heading back to the kitchen where the others are.
"Well, Leo, what's happening with her?" Jas asked.
"Just a cold, she'll be fine, she's resting now and will be up and about in no time," I answered as I sat at the table with the others.
"Ria, Jas," Nyta sounded from her spot at the table at the end next to Donnie.
"Yes?" the girls mentioned called in unison.
"Have you finished your homework that are due tomorrow?" Tan asked. I could see Jasmine and Gloria freeze with wide eyes staring at Tanyta.
"Yes," they both said together.
"Liar," Raph said.
"What's that supposed to mean hothead?" Jas asked.
"You're lying about doing your homework," Raph simply stated.
"And how do you know if we're lying or not?" Ria asked.
"Simple, you two just froze," he simply answered. I could see Ria freak out and Jas glaring, but her eyes betrayed her about her surprise.
"Fine, so we didn't do it, did you Tan?" Jas asked, looking to her older friend.
"Of course, I always do homework, the second we get home, even before we go anywhere. You two should know that," she answered with a smug look to the other two. We all gave a laugh at that, besides Jasmine and Gloria.
"Whatever. What are we gonna do today?" Ria asked, changing subject.
"First, you two, homework, second… we'll think of it later," Nyta said. I heard Ria and Jas groan.
"Not cool chica," Ria said.
"I know, but if you done it on Friday, you wouldn't have to waste your Sunday doing it," she mentioned.
"Can you help us please! PLEASE!" Ria got right up in Tan's face with her hands together and puppy dog eyes.
"You had Friday to ask me and you decide to ask me today. Sorry but I'm afraid you are on your own for this one," Tan said. We all laughed while Jas and Ria gave a glare to Nyta.
"Donnie… could you please help us? Mikey mentioned that you are smart, smart as Tan here. Could you please, PLEASE!" Gloria begged using the same technique she used on Nyta. She looked to Donnie to see him looking unsure, he looked back to her with a face saying 'should I?' Tan just shrugged her shoulders and gave him a look saying 'it's up to you'. He gave a sigh.
"Alright, I'll help you," he said.
"Yea, Donnie, you rock" Ria said.
"Although…" he started, "don't expect it to happen all the time alright".
"For sure, it won't. You're the best Donnie," Ria continued. "Unlike Tanyta," she poked her tongue out at her friend.
"Hey!" Both Mikey and Nyta protested.
"Second best Donnie," Ria confirmed.
"That's better," Mikey said with a grin on his face. The older friend was not amused or happy. We all sat and talked for a long time, I was thinking about Kiara being sick. I would join in some topics but anything else I tuned out and thought about Kiara. I hope she gets better.
DEMON~DEMON~DEMON
It was now three o'clock in the afternoon and it was time to go home, course my brothers and the girls were still talking with each other (or in Donnie's case helping with homework) that they didn't realize the time. Kiara was still in bed; this sickness must be taking its toll on her. Hopefully she pulls through soon.
"Guys, it's time to go," I called out to my brothers. I could hear groaning coming from mainly Mikey, Raph even sounded his groan. Donnie was the only one not complaining, but I could tell he was upset about leaving.
"Why bro?" Mikey asked.
"Because it's time for training Mikey, you know Sensei will not be happy if we're late," I said trying to get them to understand.
"Alright, Fearless, don't get your shell in a twist," Raph said.
"Fearless? Shell?" Ria asked confused, tilting her head to the side. If this was an anime, I swear she would have question marks all around her head.
"Just a figure of speech Ria, nothing wrong," Mikey covered Raph's slip of the tongue.
"Oh, okay," Gloria said. My brothers and I gave a silent sigh of relief.
"Come on, we need to get going," I said.
"Alright, see ya ladies," Mikey waved to them as he walked to the door along with Raph and Donnie.
"Bye guys," the girls replied back as they came to see us off.
"Hey, if Kiara gets better, let us know please," I said politely, I'm worried about her.
"For sure dude," Ria said as they closed the door. My bros and I headed back to the lair after that.
DEMON~DEMON~DEMON
We arrived at the lair where Master Splinter was waiting for us. He was in the living area, watching his soaps, well, the ending of his soaps. As they finished, he got up and walked over to us.
"Hello my sons, how was your day with the girls?" he asked.
"Yea, great, Kiara's sick though," Mikey said.
"Well, that is unfortunate," Master Splinter said. "Come along now my sons, time for afternoon practice,"
"Hai Sensei," we all called together as we headed to the dojo for our training.
DEMON~DEMON~DEMON
"Yame," Sensei called for us to stop after about two hours of training. We all stopped and lined up as per normal and respectful. "Very good my sons, you have done well. Training will continue first thing tomorrow morning. Go and do as you please." And that's just what we'd done. Mikey went to the living area to play his video games, Raph headed to the punching bag in the dojo, Donnie headed to his lab, to continue his project he was doing and I… well, I headed to my bedroom to do some meditating.
I arrived to my room; I placed all the incense on the floor around me and I lit all the candles before sitting in a lotus position in the middle of the candles. I closed my eyes and began meditating, inhaling the scent of jasmine and lilac incense and exhaling to calm my breathing. As I was meditating, my mind began wondering to a certain golden-brown haired hazel-brown eyed girl. She wasn't looking too good today and I'm really worried about her. I hope she gets better soon.
After meditating for what felt like an eternity, I finally stopped; I checked the time and noticed it was six o'clock (only an hour of meditating), almost time for dinner. I stood up blew out the candles and put them away. I then headed out of my room, only to run into (not literally) Master Splinter.
"Ah, Leonardo. I wish to speak with you and your brothers, could you please go and get them, then meet me in the dojo," he said.
"Sure, Master Splinter," I said as I headed off to find my brothers. I found Raph in the living room with Mikey after his workout with the punching bag. The two of them were playing some video games together and surprisingly, Raph's winning, at a car game. "Hey guys, Master Splinter wants to talk to us. He'll be in the dojo."
"What for? We did nothing wrong?" Mikey complained.
"I'm not sure, he didn't say," I answered.
"Alright. Let's get this over with then," Raph continued as he and Mikey headed off to the dojo to see Master Splinter. And I went to get Don, from his safe haven, the lab. As I walked up to the lab, I could hear him hard at work with some sort of invention. I gave a loud enough knock for him to hear but soft enough for the others to not hear, but knowing Master Splinter's hearing, I guess he would've heard it.
"Come in," I heard Don call from inside the lab, so I opened the door and found him with his wielder mask on and his wielder in hand. "Oh, hey Leo, what are you doing here?" he pulled his mask off, after turning the wielder off, so I could see his face better.
"I came here because Master Splinter wishes to talk to us about something," I answered.
"Now?" he asked.
"Yes, in the dojo," I confirmed.
"Alright, I'm coming," Don said as he pulled off his mask and placed both the wielder and mask down on the table. He then walked out the lab with me trailing behind him. We walked in silence til we arrived at the dojo to see Mikey and Raph kneeling before our Master and him standing in front of us. Don and I kneeled down beside our other brothers and waited patiently for Master Splinter to start.
"My sons, I have meditated on this matter for a while now. Since Donatello has created his latest invention, I have been thinking about you four going topside, even during day," he started.
"What do you mean Master Splinter?" I asked.
"I mean, I have had April enrol you into school," Master Splinter said.
"WHAT?!" my brothers and I shouted in unison.
