Turtles! FINAL CHAPTER!
Title : Welcome To The West!
Chapter 20 : R.I.P. Mr. Jones!
Farm House!
Pasture!
A carriage was moving throughout the pasture. With, April and Splinter in the seats up front. Four other horses were riding behind them with, Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo on them. After a little while of riding, Splinter stated,
" Whoa." He pulled on the reigns slightly and the horses to the carriage came to a complete stop. Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael and Michelangelo then did the same and their horses came to a complete stop as well. Splinter hopped off the carriage and April was about to get off. The old rat held his hand up and took her hand in it. He then helped her down and smiled at his lovely wife. The turtles got off their horses and they all gathered around the carriage. Leonardo flipped the back flap open and they looked at the coffin in the back. The four brothers each grabbed a rope on the side of the coffin and pulled it out the back of the carriage. They walked a few feet from the carriage and set the coffin on the ground. The turtles then backed away from the coffin and pulled out shovels that were strapped to their backs. Splinter and April walked over to the coffin and looked at his sons. The four brothers proceeded to dig a hole in the ground. April smiled at, Splinter's children and then she began to sing, "Amazing Grace." Splinter took his hat off of his head and placed it over his chest. Donatello, Raphael, Leonardo, and Michelangelo tossed some more dirt over their backs. After the song was finished the hole had become deep enough for the casket. Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael and Donatello lifted the casket once again and set it down at the bottom of the hole in the ground. They all stood up and backed away from the hole. When, April finished singing a tear slid down her cheek. The turtles then placed their hats over their chest's. Splinter then cleared his throat, placed his hat over his chest and stated,
" We are gathered here today to honor, Mr. Jone's life. Not only his life…but the life of those who came before like…my father…Hamato Yoshi….was killed by, The Shredder some many years ago. Ashes to ashes….dust to dust." Raphael knelt down when he said this and took some dirt in to his hand. He then dropped the dirt in to the hole and stood up. They all backed away from the hole and picked up their shovels. Raphael, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael proceeded to fill in the hole with the pile of dirt on the side. Splinter and April started to walk away and, Splinter stated, " Don't be late for supper boys." The turtles all nodded their heads at the same time. They all tossed some more dirt in the hole. Raphael then tossed the last bit of dirt on top and smacked it down with the shovel. Raphael then stated,
" The rest of you go on home. I'll take care of the cross." Don, Mikey, and Leo started to walk away. Raphael then asked, " Donny?. Do you have your welder?." Donatello stopped and walked back over to his brother. He then held out his welder to him. Raphael took his welder and his welding glasses. Donatello patted his brother on the back and then started to walk away. Raphael then took out his sai's and tossed one in front of the pile of dirt for the grave. The dirt was hard enough there so it would stand straight up. Raphael then got down on his knees and placed the other sai on the back of the first one so that it formed a cross shape. He then pulled out the welder, got it going and proceeded to weld the sai's together so they wouldn't fall away from each other. When he was done with that he stood up and then walked away. The sai's were welded together in the shape of a cross….in honor of, Mr. Jones.
The End!
