Unspoken words.
Master Splinter entered the dojo to see Leo practicing with his Katanas. He looked angry for something, the way he was striking with his swords was very…cruel until the moment when they fell from his hands.
-Damn it,- he said taking and throwing them away.
-Leonardo,- Master Splinter called from the door,-kneel my son.
-Sensei I didn't notice you were here,-he responded kneeling in front of his master.
-What's the matter my son? You never act this way and beside what are you doing here?
-I am practicing Master as always.
-Leonardo your brothers seem to appreciate the time spend with their…friends I wonder why don't you do the same?- Master Splinter asked already knowing the answer.
-Master Splinter, you have told me that practicing and training are the most important things and I must focus only at them,- Leo responded emotionless.
-Yes my son, it is true but it comes a time when in your life appear other priorities. You should learn how to balance them.
-I…I don't understand you sensei.
-Then I suggest you go for a walk Leonardo. It will help you think things clearly, maybe you find some help up there too.
-As you say Master,- Leo said leaving the room.
Leo headed to the elevator as his Master said. He couldn't understand his words, what did he mean with other priorities? For him family was all he thought of ,everything that really mattered. So what did Sensei mean with his words.
Suddenly something caught Leo's sight. A small object that was lying in front of the elevator. Leo took it in his hand releasing what it was immediately. What he didn't understand was the reason why it was there. Leo saw the small clip that he was holding between his fingers once more and then memories hit his mind like a bullet.
Flashback:
"God,-Kate said removing a bang from her eyes,-my hairs are becoming unbearable" Leo turned his head to see her fighting with her hairs. He simply smiled watching her "losing" the batle. He approached Kate taking the bag in his hands placing it behind her ear. "I think your hair is very beautiful" He said and she started blushing a little.
"Maybe, it can be beautiful but is really bothering me now" She said trying to fix it.
"Well in that case…-Leonardo said taking a small clip in a rose form,- you can just be practical"
Slowly he put the clip in her hairs and smiled. She smiled back and went in front of a mirror. Kate gently touched the rose and then turned to Leonardo. He approached her smiling warmly.
"Beside,- Leonardo said putting a finger on her face caressing her cheek,- you have very beautiful eyes to hide them behind your hairs." Then Kate made something which made Leo blush.
"Thanks Leonardo,- she said getting on her fingertips and kissing Leo on the cheek,- and by the way I think you have beautiful eyes too."
End of the flashback.
Thousand of emotion passed on Leo's body at that memory. Slowly he touched his cheek like he still felt her lips pressing against them. Suddenly he understood everything.
-Kate,- he murmured to himself and rushed upside.
In a small distance Master Splinter watched the whole scene with a warm smile.
"Good job my son. Now you are starting to understand your other priorities."
(Icy and Raph)
-Okay Raph I am losing my temper. May I turn back now?- Raphael had told Icy to don't turn and see his surprise until he had finished fixing something.
-Just a second,- he said and a loud crush was heard from behind.
-I better like this Raph or else…what in the world are you doing anyway?-she asked.
-There,- Raph said not answering her,-Alright you can turn now.
Icy slowly turned curiously but gasped when she saw "the surprise". She started wondering if her eyes were playing tricks on her. In front of her was standing a huge, wonderful red bike. Unsure Icy approached it, touching like she was afraid it would vanish in every moment. She smiled and turned her head to Raph.
-So,- Raph asked joking,- are you going to invite it on a date?
-I will think about that,- Icy responded playfully.
-Well in that case,- Raph said taking his helmet and heading her another,- I don't plan on waiting you.
Icy smiled taking the helmet. She sat behind him and put the helmet on her head.
-Well I can think on the way,-she said as he started driving.
Icy relaxed on his back and closed her eyes as she felt the wind blowing in her face. This was like a real dream. All her life she had dreamed to go in a motorcycle ride with the guy she liked. Maybe after all Raph was that guy. Suddenly she shook her head.
"What the hell am I thinking? I shouldn't be even imaging those things. I mean we have just met. I should act more like someone my age. But Raph is really cute and awesome even when he is in his turtle form." Icy shook her head at that last thought and only continued to relax on Raph's back. After a while she released that she didn't have a single idea where they were heading.
-Um Raph,where are we going?
-Actually I hadn't anything particular on mind,-he answered a little unsure,- do you wanna go somewhere?
-Um, actually no but,- she thought for a while and then an idea crossed her mind,- I've got an idea. Head this way.
-Alright but where are we going anyway, -Raph said turning the bike at the alley she told him.
-I am not gonna tell you,- she said teasely,-It's a surprise.
Raph groaned irritate. "Is this girl fighting me with my own words. No one tease me!"
-Do you know how very impish you are for being a girl?- he joked.
-Aww, thanks for the compliment. That was the sweetest thing someone has ever told me.-they both laugh at that comment.
-You are welcome,- after this none of them spoke until they arrived the destination and to say that Raph remained speechless was little.
(Mikey and Kelly)
Kelly laughed so loudly at that part of the movie as the whole room turned their head to her.
-Look!-she told Mikey,- I told you this would happen.
-Whatever, -Mikey said sinking in his chair. They had put a bet on how was going to end the movie and from premises Kelly was going to win,- With my brothers usually I am the one who win in the end.
-Oh but I am a girl Mikey. We are more sensitive at romances. Actually girls always notice if a guy like them or not. Only from their look.
-Oh really!-Mikey said sarcastically.
"Then why haven't you noticed me Kelly? Or don't you want to understand ." he added on his mind. Kelly noticed that something changed on Mikey's face.
-Mikey is there anything wrong. You didn't get upset with me, did you?- Kelly asked worried.
-Of course not duttede. Hey I am going to take some pop corns. You want something?-Mikey asked acting cheerfully.
-No thanks ,go ahead,-as Mikey left this time was Kelly who sank in her chair.
"Oh god, what am I feeling at those moment? My heart is beating so fast, I am feeling so tense and in the same time so relaxed. It's him isn't it?,-Kelly asked herself silently,- It is Michelangelo the one who is making me feel this way. He is so…" She didn't have time to finish her thoughts because Mikey came beside her with an extra size box of pop corns.
-So what did I miss?
-Not too much actually…Only the part when the guy told her the truth that he had lied to her and she forgave him despite everything. Don't you think it is cute?
-Nah,-Mikey said and Kelly froze,- I actually don't like those parts?
-And for what reason?- she asked a little hurt. Those parts were her favorites.
-Because something like that would never happen in real life. I mean if you make a mistake everybody will judge despite your reasons,- Kelly understood that he didn't mean for the movie.
-Does this go for you too Michelangelo?-Kelly asked sincerely.
-Huh?
-Have peoples judge you for what you are?- she asked causing Mikey to shock.
-Where…where did you get this idea duttede?
-Oh come on Mikey. You expect me to believe that what you said goes only for a movie? Hello did you forget? I am a girl we are very sensitive. You are talking about yourself aren't you?- Mikey didn't answer.
-Who has judge you Mikey?- It took a while for Mikey to answer.
-Everybody judge me Kelly. I mean just look at me. I am a total freak.
-To me you look more than normal Mikey,- she said with a serious face.
-Of course thanks to Don's brain,- he answered sarcastically.
-No Mikey, not only today. I am also talking about when you are in your real form. To me you look normal. Michelangelo you judge yourself more than it is necessary,- she saw that Mikey wasn't reacting to her words.
-You say that only to make me feel better, don't you?
-Mikey,- she said putting her hand on his face making him to see her in the eye,- Do you think that peoples haven't judge me for…for what I am able to do? Yes they have, and this has even cost me my family Michelangelo. But I never gave up. You are what you are. It is not your fault. This was the way you were created. I believe that everybody came to this life for a reason, and you have done a lot in yours.
Mikey smiled and hugged Kelly and she returned the hug.
-Kelly you are the best girl I've ever met,-suddenly she kissed him on the cheek.
-Never hate yourself for what you are,-she whispered in his ear and hugged him again,-and by the way You are also the greatest guy I've ever met. And believe me I've met a lot guys,-they both laughed hard.
"I am sure now Michelangelo,-Kelly thought in the middle of laughing,- You are the guy I've always dreamed to meet. I love you Mikey but can you love me back?"
(Don and Mia)
-Okay Mia you can open your eyes now,- he said enthusiastic.
-Don where are we? Why did I have to… Wow,- she said opening her eyes and seeing where she was.
He had brought her in a small but wonderful park. When they were alone in the lair she had told Don that she loved nature but there in New York wasn't much. She never knew this place existed. Mia slowly turned her eyes to meet his.
"He brought me here. He remembered what I told him. Oh how sweet. He is really such a sweet guy." She smiled at Don who seemed a little tense.
-So do you like it?- he asked shyly. As a respond she threw herself in his arms and he welcomed her with his full desire.
-I love it,- she said when they pulled apart.
-I am happy you like it,- he said.
Suddenly Mia took his hand. Don blushed all over from her touch. A small shivering passed his body but fortunately Mia didn't notice anything.
-Let's do a walk,- she said pulling him.
-Alright,-Don said fulfilling her desire.
They both started walking through the park. Frequently Don passed his eyes to Mia's face wondering what she was thinking.
"How came that I am beside this angel? What have I done to deserve this? I am only a freak but she…she is so lovely, such a awesome person. Clever,beautiful,storng. I wonder if she thinks that I am only a monster." Mia noticed the worried look on Don's face.
-What's the matter Donny,- she asked.
-What? Nothing, nothing at all.
-Come on Donny. I am not stupid. You seem worried about something.
Don didn't know how to answer her. " Should I tell her the truth? She seem really worried but… Oh my mind is really a mess." Finally he decided to talk with Mia.
-Look Mia. I was just wondering what are you doing beside someone like me?- suddenly Mia stopped walking shocked.
-What do you mean Donatello? Don't you like my presence here?- she asked a little afraid.
-No Mia,no. Don't misunderstand me. I appreciate your presence here more than everything else in the world but...I am wondering what is someone as great as you doing beside a freak like me,- now Mia got really angry.
-Don't you dare to call yourself a freak Donatello,- she said, you are clever, strong and everything else . I can't understand why you call yourself a freak because you are not.
- Thanks Mia,- he said smiling at her. But she saw that he still didn't believe her.
-Look Don. If you were a freak, like some other people could think you than I was supposed to be some kind of witch or something. Now do you think that I am a witch?
-Of course that not. You are to innocent to be a witch,-he told her teasely.
-Excuse me what? - she said putting her hands on her hips.
-I mean witches are supposed to be impish and so. But you, you are so innocent. In my opinion you can't hurt a fly.
Suddenly seeing a small pond there ,a thought passed her mind. Slowly she approached Don.
-So you think I am innocent don't you?- she told him ciming around him like she was seeing some kind of statue at the museum.
-Mia?- Don said backing up.
- I am not impish huh?
-Mia what are you…- he didn't have time to end his sentence cause with a single push he ended up on the cold water. Mia approached the pond smiling in a devilish way.
-So do you still think I am not impish?-she asked again.
-Impish?Impish? You girl are the devil himself,-he said and she laughed triumphal offering him a hand to get out of the water.
-You can be a devil Mia,- he told her,- but I am a scientist.
With a fast move he pulled Mia inside the water. She screamed a little and the begun to laugh.
-Donatello you are really a monster,- she said punching him playfully on the arm.
-Hehe, I know,-Don said and Mia splashed him. The splashing battle begun and in the end Don won. They both started sneexing from the cold.
-Do you know Mia? You aren't that good as i thought,- he said helping her to get out from the water.
-You too I would say,- she laughed and took Don's hand,-Come on let's sit down there. I am really exhausted. And it is all your fault.
-My fault? Hey I wasn't the one who dropped you in the water?
-Yes you weren't but you gave me the idea.
-After this Mia I can totally say that you have great premises for an evil scientist,-they both laughed and their voices echoed in the night.
-Thank you Don. I had a really great time. Despite the risk of taking a cold that could long for a week or so.
-Oh but who told you it that this is the end.
-Why is there something more?
-Just wait some other minutes and then you will find out.
-Alright then I will wait. Only hoping I don't get sick.
-Oh but it won't be my responsibility if you do.
-Hey,-Mia said,-did you forget that I can heal myself.
Don laughed and took Mia on his lap. She placed her head on his chest and stayed there for some minutes. Waiting for the other surprise to come.
"Even if you weren't able to heal yourself, I would heal you Mia." Don thought feeling the soft touch of her hair. He would never let something to happen to this angel. Never.
Please don't get mad at me for not writing about Kate. Believe me the other chapter will be dedicated to her( but also to the others :P. After all aren't you curious to see Icy's and Don's surprise?).
So tell me what you think of this chapter.
Please,please review. It would make me really happy.
