A.N: I am just tired man…..dead….so much school. Anyway, I'm here to remind you that if you missed my update Wednesday, go ahead now and read chapter 34. Also, my friends now said they want to be ninja turtles with me for Halloween because they loved the movie so much. You know how exciting this is!
Kame Otaku: No, but it's ok. I just need to know so I know how to write the next few chapters.
Nightmaster000: Thank you :).
Amyanime4: Seeing her off.
Ericaphoneix16: Yeah, Karai know how to fix up problems. Partly true about the knowing too much but they had something they wanted. I can't say anything, I'm just seeing how I need to write the next few chapters.
Beawolf's Pen: No, Karai stays. Filly becomes a filly, lol. And it doesn't stop there. Um, ATLA reference? Robin Williams will be missed.
I don't own TMNT
(Translation)
CHAPTER 35
Fillien and Karai snuck into the cargo house that connected the parking lot to the air field. They stuck with the shadows, ducking behind boxes as people walked by. They got to the warehouse exit and poked their heads out. They looked around for their next hiding spot and found a shadow area near a building lined with gates to board the planes. To get there they walked along next to a moving cart transporting luggage and used it as cover. Then they jumped into their shadow area. "Oh, man, we're so close to humans, Karai. What if I get caught and get sent to a science lab."
"You'll be fine, just use your training."
"I'm half cat, not exactly in ninja mode all the time when I can't cartwheel. Or maybe I can, I should try that."
"Shhh." A group of men passed by their hiding spot and fortunately didn't notice the two intruders. Fillien looked up to another building. There was her plane, and it looked like they were finishing up loading the last of the luggage.
"Karai." Fillien hissed. "We have to cross over to that building."
"Then let's go."
"But we're in the light."
"No one will notice a flash of black and bage running from one building to another."
"I'm not as fast as you."
"Just try." Karai hissed, getting annoyed.
"Ok, ok." Fillien said with a bit a fear. Fillien and Karai crept along the wall and stopped just at the edge of the building. Karai looked at the other side and saw metal bin. She smiled and rolled across the open area between the buildings. She landed quickly on the other side and hid behind the bin. Fillien moved her feet up and down, her shoulder blades doing the same when cats were ready to pounce. Fillien took a breath, crouched, and then leapt across. She landed next to Karai and hid in the shadows. They waited there a minute until they were sure no one spotted them.
Karai looked over the bin to the plane. She looked at the wheel and the metal that held it to the compartment on the bottom of the plane. Karai looked around seeing some workers working to shut the luggage storage door and then do last minute checks around the plane. Karai looked at Fillien and said, "Ok, when no one is around the wheel, make a break for it and climb inside."
"Ok and what about you?"
"I'll be fine. I'll find a way back to the hideout. You're the one who's traveling."
"I've traveled before. Just a whole new way of doing it."
"Good Luck."
"Thanks." Fillien held her hands up for a hug but Karai returned it with a confused stare. "Sorry, I forgot you don't do hugs." Fillien and Karai looked at the plane again and waited for the men to clear out a bit. When all of their heads were turned, Karai said, "Now."
Fillien didn't think twice. She ran as quickly as she could and then flew into the compartment.
Karai made a fist pump. "Yes…."
Fillien landed in the compartment and laid on some metal rods that connected with the leg of the wheel. She hung there like a cat. It was bit hot, but Fillien knew she couldn't do anything about it. She sat down and waited. About a few minutes later, she felt the plane moving and she looked down to see the ground moving below her. Then she saw the familiar smooth path of a runway and Fillien hung on to the metal leg as she felt the plane start to run fast on the path. The wind blew hard but she stayed there, holding on tight to the rails. She felt the plane lift off and she saw water below. Fillien admired the view of where the ocean met the big city for only a few moments. Then the wheels began to fold in. She flew up in the compartment and waited for the wheels to go fully in and the doors to close. She landed on the wheel and then lied down. "Six hour flight across the Atlantic. Time to be a night owl again."
Fillien slept all of the flight since she didn't get any sleep beforehand. She was rudely awakened when she heard the sound of the doors opening. Fillien jolted awake got herself ready. She spread out her wings and waited for the right moment. She looked down in her home city and saw the Eiffel Tower. "Let's go." Fillien flew out of the plane and dove down into the city. "Woohooo!" She screamed as the night air flew by her. She spied an alley way and flew into it. Then she landed in a skid at the back of the alleyway and stayed up straight. "Hah! Pete, will be so happy I finally got those dives down." Fillien then flew up onto a roof and looked at the view. She gasped. "Wow."
The city lay before her with twinkling lights. She could see the tourist hotspots all the way from where she was. She looked down to see a roundabout and cars weaving in and out. People were walking by and she could hear the people talking in her native tongue. She looked up at the sky and realized how much clearer it was here than in New York. It was still a bit smoggy though. She took a breath and smelled the rich scent of food and flowers in the air. "Home." She said.
))))))))))))) At the Hideout. ((((((((((((
The next night Karai was walking down a hallway when she saw Bradford walking by with Xever slung on his back. Baxter took the front with a box in his hands.
"Um, what is going on?" Karai asked.
Baxter explained. "Well, thanks to the Nero transmitter you gave me, I have developed a way for Xever to have feet again."
"Really, because it looks like Bradford is carrying Xever because he can't walk."
"We're taking fish boy her to Baxter's lab for last minute fixing." Bradford answered.
"If you call me fish boy one more time, I will drop kick you to the next state." Xever threatened.
"Oh, I'm scared." Bradford said sarcastically.
Without another word, the guys began to walk away. Karai just rolled her eyes. "Well, at least Baxter said thank you…in some form or another."
))))))))))))) Paris (((((((((((((
Fillien got up and she heard the sound of honking in the distance. Fillien had been having trouble sleeping since she got here. The problem started when she got hungry after coming in from the plane ride so she ate the food that was packed for her. Feeling sleepy again she slept, but in the morning realized her mistake in doing so had woken her up two hours later when the sun came up. She couldn't do anything when it was day and people were out. She didn't feel sleepy at all so she had to stake out in and abandoned hotel and watch people walk by from the window. The mixed up hours were killing her. "Stupid Jet Lag."
When the sun was finally reaching the horizon Fillien got out. She couldn't do much until it was actually night, so she went into an alley to look for the nearest trashcan. Fillien hadn't eaten since early this morning when she ate all the food that was packed. Now it was time for her to scavenge. She lifted up the lid of a metal can and looked in to try and find something. As she did she heard voices, mixed with a few cooing sounds. She looked up behind her and saw just over a building there were a line of pigeons sitting on the edge. The seemed to be eyeing her and whispering among themselves. Fillien got agitated and she said, "Si vous avez terminé de parler de moi ..."(If you are done talking about me…..)
The birds got shocked. One of them, "Vous êtes un chat, mais vous mangez des ordures ..." (You are a cat, yet you eat garbage.)
"Je ne mange pas les oiseaux, si c'est ce que vous demandez." (I don't eat birds if that is what you are asking.)
"Mayeb il est car du coup elle est mi-oiseau."(Maybe it is because she's half bird) said one to another.
Fillien called out "Je peux encore vous entendre." (I can still hear you)
One of the pigeons, one bigger than the other two, flew down first to her. Fillien left the bin and stood in front of the pigeon who said, "Excusez mes amis, ils ne sont pas utilisés à des étrangers. Je suis déligneuse. Puis-je demander qui et ce que vous êtes?" (Excuse my friends, they are not used to foreigners. I am Edger. May i ask who and what you are?)
"Fillien. Je suis euh ... un mutant ... c'est une longue histoire." (Fillien. I'm um…I'm a mutant….it's a long story.)
""Vous parlez français mais vous agissez comme si vous ne vivez pas ici." ( You speak French, yet you act as if you don't live here.)
"J'ai grandi sa toute ma vie comme un être humain. J'ai juste été un absent pendant deux ans et dans le même temps je me suis tourné sur la question. Je suppose que vous avez raison. Je suis un étranger dans ma propre maison." ( I grew up her all my life as a human. I've just been a away for two years and in the meantime i got turned into this. I guess you are right. I'm a stranger in my own home)
"Ne vous inquiétez pas, et bienvenue à la maison. Je pense que vous devez savoir à travers, tout noir et jaune est mauvais." (Not to worry, and welcome home. I think you need to know through, anything black and yellow is bad.) Edger pointed to the trashcan. Fillien understood he was talking about garbage food.
Fillien nodded. "Merci."
Edgar turned around and began to fly off, "Je dois quitter Mlle Fillien. Ne prendre soin." (I must leave, Miss Fillien. Do take care.)
"Au Revoir, Edgar."
When the pigeons were gone, Fillien went back to looking for food. She started to think of the nice conversation she had with Edgar, and she missed talking to people like that. And he was right, too. She shouldn't be eating from the garbage. Fillien sighed. She couldn't stay hiding. She knew she had to go to someone. And she knew just who.
)))))))))))))))))))) At the Hideout. (((((((((((((
Karai took a lesson that day and trained some ninjas. A few minutes in she was already getting bored, watching the ninjas practicing their fights on each other. Fillien would always make a comment, but now that she was in Paris, things were quiet. Out of sheer boredom, Karai cut the class early and she left for her dorm. As she was getting there, Bradford, Xever, and Baxter walked in with annoyed looks. Wait, Xever was walking? He had the same metal legs that Baxter had made for him a few days earlier, but this time they seemed to work and weren't going hay wire. "Wow." Karai said, "I didn't think I'd ever see the fish out of water."
Xever growled and marched up to her. He pointed at her and said, "Why don't you just learn to keep your mouth shut girl."
Karai smelled something, a mix of trash and sweaty clothing. She gagged and held her nose. "Ugh, what is that smell?"
Bradford laughed, "Sushi boy here got pelted by one of the turtles new weapons. Balls of Garbage."
Karai laughed and in between laughs she asked, "That is so sad really, please tell me they had more stuff."
"If you count a big truck size car made from a subway cart….." Baxter said.
"Shut it, Stickman." Xever told him.
Karai laughed harder. "You were defeated with trash, how incredible. Next they're going to fucking kick your asses with tooth picks." Karai laughed at her joke.
Xever wanted to ram his fist in her face so bad, but this was the Shredder's daughter. He would get wrangled for just touching her. Xever grumbled and marched away. Bradford followed behind and said, "Hey, who knows, she could be right sushi boy."
"Stop calling me that. You fat gordo este." (This fat one).
Karai had stopped laughing and she looked to Baxter who was still there. "And you?"
"Me? I'm just the tech guy." Baxter then walked away. Karai was thankful for the exchange that went on, she liked it when everyone made fun of each other.
A.N: As you can tell, this took place during the episode the Pulverizer. The plane thing worked but it doesn't help the jet lag. Fillien's missing out on the fun Karai was having. Well, at least she made another friend. And who is Fillien going to? Find out next time, I'm KikaKatTIOI, peace out!
