I'm sooooooooo sorry guys! I had no idea I's take almost 10 months to update! I got so distracted, what with having pretty much the worst summer, then school year of my life. ( my science teacher's a complete b-#$^! And all these loser kids keep bullying me! Seriously I thought I was finally at an age where stuff like that didn't happen anymore! But nooo the jerks just can't leave me alone can they!! T-T. Good things have happened this year though, I joined the band if I didn't already tell you, and guess what? I actually got to play with them in the ST patty's day parade!! It was awesome, were any of you at the parade?
Anyways, I hope the next chapter makes up for my absence, enjoy, I worked hard on it! (it actually took me a couple tries to get a chapter I actually liked and went with.)
Disclaimer: I do not own TMNT. Or Mamma mia's "Lay all your love on me.)
The days after the past events were stressful enough for the girls since they still had to train under their ghost masters teaching. Kayanna was proud of them, but also strict, as she needed to be since the fight with Chicobo would also be a fight for their lives.
But, as all children also need, Kayanna also gave them time to rest, however short it was.
One of those times, was when the girls were hanging out with the turtles in their Den one evening , just doing anything that randomly sounded interesting..
Beccy sighed and stretched her arms above her head, "Nyaa! I'm bored, I'm gonna plug in the karaoke machine kay?"
"Meh." The others grunted in response as she got everything set up.
"Okay who wants to sing with me?! Anybody?....Hello?" Everybody, feeling lazy did not volunteer…until Beccy gave her boyfriend her infamous puppy-eyes.
Mikey grinned at her, "Sure, get it set up and choose a song, I'll sing with you."
Beccy squealed in happiness, "Kay! stand over hear and hold the karaoke mike. "
Wit that Beccy ran over to the play station and put in the karaoke game. She scrolled through the flashy colored song titles before she stopped at one with a familiar rhythm.
"Lay all your love on me?" Wasn't that from Mamma Mia or something." Tawni asked.
Beccy turned, "You should know that little miss Broadway, Hells ya!"
Mikey tapped on the shoulder, "No dudette, you gotta say it right, Its Shells ya!"
Beccy laughed and clicked on the song, selecting it. Muttering a quick warning to Mikey that the guy sang first, she clicked on both mics and got her voice ready for her boyfriend.
Mikey quickly scanned the words while the back ground music played for a moment, before his surfer accent disappeared for a moment when he started voicing said words.
I wasn't jealous before we met
Now every man that I see is a potential threat..
Mike took his two main fingers and put them in front of his eyes then pointed them at Raph, like saying he was watching him. Cam gave Mikey the finger.
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice, he continued,
You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice
Beccy suddenly bapped him on the head, "No smoking! bad!" Mikey laughed then kept on,
But now it isn't true
Now everything is new
And all I've learned
Has overturned
I beg of you….!
Mikey took a breath and waited for Beccy to enter. His girlfriend took a breath and opened her mouth, surprisingly calm. Before she started she grabbed Mikey's hand and looked up at him with her big brown eyes.
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me... !
Mikey stood there a moment, stunned (fortunately, it was Beccy's verse) He had no idea she was THAT good. She sang like a bird! Err…wait..
Beccy winked at him and continued, letting go of his hand,
It was like shooting a sitting duck, She made a wounded face and held her heart
A little small talk, a smile and baby I was stuck.
I still don't know what you've done to me
A grown-up woman should never fall so easily
Beccy held hands with her boyfriend once again and fondly smiled as she sang,
I feel a kind of fear…
When I don't have you near…
Unsatisfied,
I skip my pride,
I beg you dear….!
Mike smiled at her fondly and squeezed her hand
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me
Beccy smiled once again and started again,
I've had a few little love affairs
They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce
Mikey took a breath and took his turn
I used to think that was sensible
It makes the truth even more incomprehensible
Finally both grinned at each other and sang as a duet
'Cause everything is new
And everything is you
And all I've learned
Has overturned
What can I do?
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me …!
"Just the girl this time!" Beccy screamed for her best friends to join in. Ella and Tawni quietly complied but cam just sat there until she had enough of Raph poking her in the ribs for her to sing too.
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me…..
Finally the song ended and Beccy celebrated the finale by jumping up into Mikey's arms and kissing him smack on the lips. Tawni jokingly covered Ella's eyes and Cam rolled her eyes with Raph.
After a moment everyone conquered that Beccy rocked at singing and clapped for them when they heard the lair doors swish open.
"Master Splinter? That you?" Raph asked not turning around. Suddenly his eyes widened and he quickly caught a huge gloved hand before it could hit him.
"Aw man!" A Brooklyn accent said form behind them.
Beccy, not skipping a beat leapt over the couch and took a defensive stance towards the intruder, "Who goes friend or foe!!"
"E-err Friend! Friend!" The man with shoulder length black hair said, holding his hands up in surrender. A woman with violet/reddish hair came up behind him.
"Woah, Casey ,April how's it going?" Donatello asked as Mikey managed to coax Beccy off the couch. Ella glanced at him curiously.
"T-these are y-your friends Donatello?" Ella asked, cocking her head to the side. April smiled in a friendly way.
"You must be the girls we've heard so much about, we've been waiting to meet you for a while! My names April." She introduced herself, shaking Tawni's hand. The girls introduced themselves as well, with Casey managing to get his name in there too before they joined the others in the den and sat down to talk.
"So what's the deal? How come it's taken you guys this long to introduce these girls to us?" Casey asked, sounding kinda miffed.
"Sorry, some things came up that we're kinda still in the process of taking care of. But it's great to see you." Leo explained, before April cocked an eyebrow.
"Things? What kind of things?"
Leo glanced at Tawni fro a moment as if asking for permission before Tawni nodded and started to explain. The entire story.
The parts with Chicobo surprisingly had no effect on the two whatsoever, which confused the girls slightly. It was easily explained when they told them stuff like this is normal for the turtles, so they weren't surprised in the least.
"And…u-uh…M-me and Leo are um…dating now…as well as the others with each other….so yeah...." Tawni finished blushing like no tomorrow. Leo smiled but turned a little red himself.
April jumped out of her seat, "that's so great guys! I'm so happy for you, I mean no offense but I never thought this would actually happen!"
The turtles smiled, they knew April didn't mean anything by that, seriously how likely was it that they would find girls for all four of them that mad them this happy? Not at all likely, but it happened.
In the duration of two hours, April and Casey became something of an older brother and sister to the girls. Beccy even told Casey that he reminded her of Ryan…sorta.. April was overjoyed that these girls had accepted the turtles like she had, and even managed to find love with them. She could tell all four of them and her were going be best friends as time went on.
After a while, The two decided it was time to go, so the girls and turtles said their goodbyes, while Master splinter had a quick word with them before they settled back into he den….now feeling quite bored.
Not for long XD
Cam had gotten up to get a glass of water, and was in the process of walking back over the bridge on the pond to the den ,when a giant shining portal erupted just to the side of her. Needless to the say the water didn't stay in her mouth for very long.;
"Gah! What now?!" she screamed, flipping with newfound kill to the other side of the pnd while the turtles and rest of the girls ran behind her.
Ella clung to Donatello's arm and got into a defensive position with the other girls. The boys just kind stood there amused, already knowing who it was.
Sure enough, out of the portal came a large humanoid rabbit in samurai clothing, after walking out of it the portal shortly disappeared.
"Ohayo, Leonardo-san, Donatello-san, Raphael-san, Michelangelo-san." The rabbit said bowing slightly.
"EYAHH! JAPANESE EASTER BUNNY OF DOOM!!" Beccy screamed, jumping behind Mikey and shuddering. Mikey immediately burst out laughing, almost falling over a the look on Usagi's face.
The poor rabbit blinked in surprise at the girl's reaction at his entering, "Uh….."
Leonardo finally stepped forward after snickering himself, "Sorry about that Usagi, we haven't been able to tell the girls about you coming yet."
It was Usagi's turn to chuckle when Leo's normally gentle girlfriend slugged upside the head.
"You mean you knew he was coming! Jesum crow Leo I about had a heart attack!"
Leo rubbed his head and smirked, "sorry, sorry, we wanted it to be a surprise."
Tawni stopped glaring at him long enough to look curious, "surprise?"
Donatello, took over, stepping up to his rabbit friend with Ella in tow, "Girls, this is Usagi Myamoto, a friend of ours. He comes from a different dimension-"
"Yeah why am I not surprised!" Cam interjected, holding a hand over her heart, still calming down form the shock.
The rabbit samurai stepped forward and bowed respectively, "I am pleased to meet you finally. You must be Cameron-san. Let's see if I can guess the other girl's names."
Usagi Stepped forward a little closer to Tawni, Her bowing awkwardly in respect and he smiled, "Tawnia-san…am I correct?"
Tawni smiled and nodded, "It's nice to meet you."
Beccy started waving her arms and pointing to herself, "Me, me! Who am I?"
Usagi smiled, "Ah, the strange one, I knew right away you must be Rebecca-san."
Beccy grinned, "That's right! But seriously Mr. Bunny, don't call me Rebecca Call me Beccy! Or Bec! Or strange one, even that's better than Re-blech-aa!" She grimaced, mispronouncing her name in a joking manner. Usagi could only blink at her and wonder what in the world was wrong with her name as It was.
Finally his eyes came to the shyest girl, "Eleanor-san." He said bowing respectively and smiling.
"Y-Yes, I-I'm glad to meet you Usagi." She said, looking at hr feet and shying next to Donatello. The nervousy of meeting new people had yet to leave her.
"Yeah, yeah glad to meetcha, now would you four like to explain just why the heck he's here?" Cam said, glaring at her smirking boyfriend.
Donny snickered again, "well, we were talking to Usagi the other day, and he said he knew of a hot spring in his world near a beach, perfect for relaxing. And well, with the recent events we figured you girls could use a lot of relaxation. So…we asked Usagi to come back over the weekend and show us the hot spring…our treat of course."Donny finished, looking kinda shyly at Ella.
The girls looked at each other, the boys went to this much trouble just to help them relax? And now they wee offering to pay their way into a hot spring?
Beccy was the first to react.
"YOU RULE MIKEY!!" she shouted for the entire world to hear, making Mikey blush but extremely happy when she kissed him repeatedly on the cheek. The others simply hugged or kissed their boyfriends as well, making them smile and Usagi smirk awkwardly at the outward display fo affection.
"I'll be back tomorrow morning to pick you up then. See you later."
Everybody drifted off while Leonardo stayed to say goodbye to usage.
"Sorry about the craziness that just happened Usagi-san." Usage stopped him by holding up a hand.
"think nothing of it, though I am curious as to what I saw between you and Tawnia-san just now."
Leo blushed a bright greenish crimson and Usagi laughed, "You can explain later, Farwell Leonardo-san." With that the rabbit opened back up the portal and walked through leaving Leo embarrassed and happy a the same time. (BTW Leo didn't tell him they were dating.)
Everybody started to pack and as the day went on, increasingly became tired after packing and un packing and packing again for three days (they couldn't decide what would be there and what wouldn't.) Pretty soon everyone was ready to go to bed, except for one, who showed no promise of getting the proper rest she'd need.
Ella, who had been bent over her recent favorite book since the invitation was presented by Usagi, still leaned over the small printed letters, squinting as her eyes grew tired but refused to put the book down. Donatello, trying to help remedy this attempted to pull the book away. Silly turtle boy.
Ella clung to it like it was hot glued to her hands, looking up at him with sad puppy eyes (I wonder if she's doing it on purpose…),
"No, come one Ella it's late, your tired, and we need to get up early tomorrow if we're gonna go…" slowly the puppy eyes were wearing the genius down.
"P-Please Donatello, I'm at the best part, as soon as the chapter's over…?" She asked hopefully, shining the big lilac eyes until Donny sighed in defeat.
"Alright, alright I give…."
Ella smiled gratefully, "Thank you Don, I-I'll go to sleep soon I promise." With that she leaned forward and kissed him softly on the cheek. Both of them blushed like mad but since they had no audience this time managed to stay conscious.
Donatello flipped up into the upper levels of the lair, and for an hour or so everything was quiet. However, the hypnotic power of the printed page had Ella reading way past the chapter she had finished in five minutes. Thankfully, the soft clacking of splinter's cane managed to stir her out of her stupor.
The old rat looked surprised seeing her still up, before his expression quickly turned soft, "Ella? What on earth are you doing awake child?"
Ella blushed a little and closed her book ashamed, "Please don't tell Donatello..S-sensei I didn't mean to loose track of time."
As she apologized, the aging master had come forward to sneak a glance at the book cover, "Singing the dog star blues…I see.."
"It's really a good book! N-not many people know much about it…b-but I really like it," Ella went on to explain the plot to master splinter who had taken a seat beside her and patiently listened.
"I will have to read it while you and the others are at the hot spring, it seems like a very interesting book."
Ella smiled, glad she had been able to increase the book's popularity just a little, when master splinter's kind look turned stern, "However, you really must go to sleep now, it will be a long day tomorrow, you will want to get some rest."
Ella was about to protest when the old rat flipped away. Ella looked down at her lap noticing the weight change and found the books was gone. She looked up when she heard the old rat chuckle and hold the book up, "Off to bed with you."
Ella blinked for a moment then smiled, Master splinter had truly become something of a father figure to her and the others in the time they spent here. But it seemed like he was like that with everyone the TMNT befriended. Although he would seem reluctant at first, he eventually seems to embrace those around him. Of course Kayanna was there, but it was hard to take a floating replica seriously even for her.
"A-alright, I'm going now…..goodnight M-Master splinter."She bowed respectively while he patted her on the head.
As he watched the young girl walk off again, the Master splinter shook his head, "Kids.."
Later ,the next morning…
"Master splinter are you sure we should be going so suddenly? What about the city-" Leo started looking worried when he was interrupted by a look form Master splinter.
"It will be fine my son, the fact that you are worrying so much tells me you need this trip more than ever. The only thing I ask of you and your brothers is to take care of Tawnia and her friends. They may be warriors now, but they have never been to another dimension as you have."
Mikey snickered, "Not often you can say stuff like that with a straight face, huh?" Raph bapped him on the head.
A few seconds later, a bright shining portal appeared in the middle of the room just as it had the day before, Usagi once again walked through and smiled at his old and new friends alike, "Everything is ready, are you all ready to go?"
The eight nodded, and the first to approach the portal was of course, Bec.
She stuck one leg in the portal but stayed where she was laughing, "Look, my leg's floating in another dimension, Mwahaha phantom leg! BEWARE!!" she finished before squawking when Cam shoved her in.
"Just get in there ya goofball!" she shouted, running in after her .
Raph and Mikey shortly followed, with the other four waving good bye and shaking their heads as Usagi led them through.
Ella had closed her eyes nervously and clung onto Donatello's arm. Travelling to another dimension is very nerve wracking for a young warrior you know. He smiled an patiently guided her as he looked ahead and saw the other girls had similar reactions, hell, even cam had stuck extremely close to Raph until he finally grabbed her hand in a comforting gesture.
Finally, the vortex closed behind them and Don gently nudged Ella, "It's okay Ells, we're there now."
Ella cautiously cracked open an eye, then both opened in wonder as she looked at her surroundings. They had gone from a dark sewer lair to a wide open grassland in a feudal type Japan, Usagi's world.
"Welcome, all of you. I hope this world seems welcoming to you for your stay."
"It's beautiful Usagi, look at all of the cherry blossom trees!" Tawni gushed, looking absolutely ecstatic.
Beccy immediately laid down and rolled around "Grass! Actual grass! Last time I saw grass like this was when we went to the beach last summer! And those were just weeds!"
Mikey smiled, even with the parks it was hard to find grass soft enough to roll around like that in New York. They had to take them up to Casey's farm house sometime.
"Ella, you have to paint this got it? This scene right here!" Cam said, gesturing to the clearing they had landed in.
Ella blushed and nodded in agreement, whipping out a sketch book out of her small bag on her shoulder.
"U-Usagi, i-is it okay if I quickly sketch this place before we go?"
The rabbit nodded, "We will need to find a days worth of food and water before we set out anyway, it will take a good portion fo today to just get to the hot springs. I am sorry I couldn't transport us directly there, but sometimes the portals can be unpredictable, only getting allocation half right."
"That's fine Usagi, that shouldn't take too long anyway."
"Woohoo! Let's go Mikey! We're off to find food, You too Mr. Bunny!" Beccy screamed, grabbing both boy's hands and running into the direction of the woods.
"M-My Name is Usagi Rebecca-san, in case you have forgotten!" Usagi stumbled, still unused tot his girls extreme behavior as he struggled to keep up with her pace of running.
"If you'd remember not to call me Rebecca ,maybe I'll call you by the name you want to, Kay Mr. bunny?"
The ones left behind laughed when they heard Usagi groan in response.
