A/N: I'm going to try to bring in some bad guys. A reviewer asked me if I am going to bring in some PR baddies. I just might. You just never know. Sorry if this seems short. Wanted to post a chapter before I went into work or else it would've bugged me all shift.

Chapter 10: Fan Club:

Deb was more then pleased with Adam when everything was said and done. The place was empty now except for her new act and his friends. "How did I do?"

"I'd say pretty damn good for your first time." Deb answered as she pulled out some cash for him. "Keep that up and I might give you one hell of a raise."

Adam thanked her for the money. "I'd say celebration is in order!" Casey announced.

Adam laughed. "My treat."

"No, no," April argued. "We're going to be treating you."

"Aw Ape," Casey pouted.

"Nice Casey, just take money from the poor kid." April rolled her eyes.

"I really don't mind." Adam assured her. "Look at all you've done for me in the past couple of days."?

"It doesn't matter." April warned him with a pointed finger. "It's your night." She turned to Casey. "I'll meet you guys outside. I need to talk to his boss."

"Please don't scare her." Adam pleaded. April had a bad habit of doing that to people.

Casey pulled him off.

"What's up?" Deb asked April.

"I want to talk to you about Cafe Green." April answered.

Then Deb Winters recognized her. "I know you," she replied with a smirk. "You're that reporter chick from Channel 6." Deb shook her head. "I ain't talkin'."

April put up her hands. "It's off the record," April assured her. "How have things been around here?"

Deb was hesitant to answer that. She knew about Dawson and The Watchers, Mac and The Immortals. Dawson always came to visit her when Mac was in town. At first she thought it was because of her but after learning that he had a girlfriend on his hands that idea went out the window. Later she learned it was just to take in the music scene. It seemed he had his own bar on the other side. It was by accident she learned about Mac's identity though. She was cleaning up when she saw a fight between Mac and his enemies. Things were always interesting when Mac was here but lately there were no dead bodies to count. She was thankful for that. It was bad for business.

"Snoozeville," she answered.

April crossed her arms. "I don't believe you."

Deb leaned over the bar. "Look, I wouldn't have hired the kid if things were nasty around here."

"That doesn't mean he won't be in any danger." April stated.

"I'll make a deal with you," Deb said. "If I think it will get ugly, I'll send him your way."

April shook her head. "I'm not done with you just yet."

"I figured you weren't."

April gave her one more warning before heading out to meet up with the boys. Casey and Adam were joined now with the turtles who had come out of hinding.

"My new boss is still alive right?" Adam questioned April as soon as he saw her.

"For now." Ape answered.

Raph was the first one to congratulate him. "You did good."

"Seriously?" Adam asked. He was glad that it was dark or the turtles would've seen him blush.

"Dude!" Mikey took care of that answer for him. "You were hacking awesome!" Mikey then went about to air guitar. "You so got to teach me how to play like that!"

Donnie laughed. "You've been practicing Guitar Hero some uh?"

"Not really Don," Adam said with a laugh. That's when Adam noticed that there was one turtle short. "Where is Leo?"

Raph didn't know how to answer him. He hated to say that his brother hadn't shown up. Raph didn't have to. Leonardo answered for himself. "I'm right here."

Adam's eyes lit up at the sight of him. "I thought you wouldn't be here!"

"What made you think that?" Leo asked him.

Adam shrugged. "I don't know, figured that you'd be off patrolling or something."

"So did I." followed Raph giving his brother an odd look.

Leo brushed him off. "I'm here. You did really well."

"And I got it all on my camera!" Don brought out his new toy.

Adam face palmed. "Please tell me you didn't!"

"Oh, I did!" Donnie showed him the footage he captured. "This is so going on YouTube!"

"Oh, no it's not!" Adam argued.

"All I got to do is upload it!" Donnie teased him.

"Can you run really fast Donnie?" Adam asked him.

Don didn't have to ask why. He bolted with Adam right behind him. "Hey, what about dinner?" Casey asked as he ran after the two.

"I said I'll take care of dinner." April reminded him.

Mikey, Leo, and Raph were left behind. "After you," Mikey offered Raph.

"If you insist." And off Raph went.

Mikey followed.

It was just Leo. He didn't run up with them just yet. He had a bad feeling. It was if someone was following him. He didn't like it. Leo saw nothing in the darkness that surrounded him but just because he didn't see them didn't mean they weren't there.

"Leo!" Mikey called back at him. "You comin' bro?"

Leo gave one last scan of the area before catching up with his brothers. Just as he turned a pair of red eyes flashed in the darkness. They weren't alone.
