KLUNK'S MISSING
By ilovemyboys
Chapter 12: Klunk's Okay!
"Klunk?" I asked unbelievingly at our family's orange friend, curled up around the baby turtles.
Gradually he opened tired eyes to look up at me, then slowly stood up and walked over, if a bit uneasily.
"Klunk, you're okay!" I exclaimed.
He rubbed his back against my hand, as I stroked his fur. It was then I noticed he had some cuts and bruises, and a little bit of fur tangled up.
Klunk's okay. Thank god! Now to make sure Mikey's alright…
Suddenly the thought of my missing brother brought me back to reality.
I better call the others first. Tell them I found Klunk. Then we can bring him home and look for Mikey.
Taking out my Shell Cell I called Don.
"…." The dial tone rang. "…."
"…..Hello?" Don answered on the other end.
"Don, it's Leo! Guess what! I found Klunk!"
"What! Really?"
"Yeah! He's right here! Any news on Mikey?"
"No not yet I-" RING! RING! "Oh! Raph's calling, hold on. I installed 3-way-calling so you can listen in."
"Okay."
"Hello?" Don asked.
"Yo! Don! You'll never guess who I found!"
"Mikey?" We both asked.
"Yeah I-hey! When did Fearless get here?"
"I was talking to him on the Shell Cell when you called."
"Oh, alright. Well anyway, I found Mikey and he's okay. Just a little beat up, but that's just from him being stupid out here."
"Hey! I heard that!" Mikey's voice called from the other end.
I smiled at hearing my brother's familiar voice.
"Well Mikey, I've got good news for you," I said. "I found Klunk!"
"WHAT! YOU DID!"
"Yeah he's-"
"OH MY GOSH HOW IS HE!?"
"Cool down Mikey! Let him talk!" Raph cut in.
"He's fine," I said, deciding to leave out all the details for now. No need to stir him up again.
"Thank god! We'll be right over! Where are you?"
"Right under Eastman and Laird. There's a big pool of water-"
"We're on our way!"-CLICK.
I stared blankly at the phone that just seconds ago held my brother's voice.
"Guess I'll meet up with you too Leo," Don chuckled.
I smiled. "Sounds good Don. See ya soon."
CLICK.
Letting out a sigh I put away my Shell Cell as I took another glance at Klunk.
If that blood I saw earlier was his, I better see if I can find it. Make sure he's alright.
"Alright Klunk, hold on," I said as I searched for anything out of the ordinary. Just then I noticed some fur missing and a little dried blood. Not a whole lot, thankfully, so he probably just scratched it on something while running around.
"It's okay Klunk, we'll fix you up," I spoke gently.
Klunk gazed up at me with expectant eyes.
"What?" I asked.
He continued to stare.
"Are you looking for Mikey? Don't worry he's on his way."
Wow. I'm talking to a cat. What are you thinking Leo?
Instantly I felt the brush of Klunk's fur against my leg as he curled up next to me and slowly shut his eyes. I smiled down at him as I stroked his fur once again.
Everything will be fine. I can feel it.
