Good evening my friends! And welcome to a new fic! This time a TMNT Halloween Special!

Even though I'm still working on Sharks and Ninjas, which I hope to complete before Christmas, no promises! I've been wanting to write a Halloween fic as my favouraite time of the year is approaching! Just over Six weeks to be exact!

In this fic, we see the younger generation of the Hamato Clan and the Mutopians enjoy that time of the year they can walk amongst the humans in Chicago, and the Underground City prepare for the Spooky Holiday!

Note: Many characters in this fic belong to my dear friend and fellow writer Tyroth Darkstorm!

October Surprises

Chapter One

It was that time of the year when the seasons had changed, it didn't matter whether it was in the country or the city, but the winds were getting cooler, and the nights got longer.

For some it was a disappointing time as the days got shorter, but for others, it was a time for joy.


Deep, down below the Windy City of Chicago, the mutant sanctuary of Mutopia was bustling with excitement as this was one of the only times they could walk amongst the humans and no-one could tell that they were different, as this was Halloween!

"Wow!" a young teenage girl's voice cried out "This looks amazing!"

"I tell you Kemeko! Mutopia never disappoints at this time of year!"

"Absolutely! They sure know how to make everything look the part for this fantastic time of year!"

Pandora the Turtle/lizard Hybrid lead the way into the sanctuary with her female Japanese human cousin Kemeko whilst their parents and uncles and aunts followed behind.

"Wait for us girls!" An elderly grey rat called ahead "Some of us are carrying heavier luggage!"

"Sorry Grandpa!" the girls called back and slowed down, letting their Grandfather Splinter catch up to them, followed by four adult male turtles, each with a different coloured mask, red, blue, purple and orange, a female mutant lizard with long dark hair held back with a pink headband and two humans, a female red headed woman and a tall black-haired male.


No sooner did they enter the sanctuary than they were greeted by the residents of Mutopia.

Leading the way was a young female chameleon with burnt golden hair and her scales glowing pink as she ran up and embraced the hybrid and human girl.

"Pandora!" she cried "Kemeko! I've missed you!" she cried.

The hybrid hugged her friend back.

"Awww! Missed you too Sonia!" she replied.

"And so did we!" a couple of voices joined in behind Sonia and Kemeko and Pandora looked up to see the Geckolings, Freya and Loki flying over, looking excited.

Freya embraced Pandora as Sonia let go and Loki hugged Kemeko.


Tyroth, his wife Sephie along with Old George and Kate the Viper arrived not long afterwards and Sephie wasted no time in embraced her honoured little sister Monalisa, Kate practically jumped into Michelangelo's arms, Tyroth fist bumped the turtles, April and Casey as well as bowed in respect to Splinter and Old George also bowed to Splinter as well as welcomed the Hamato Clan and their friends back to Mutopia.

"Welcome back guys!" Tyroth grinned "Hope the journey wasn't too bad?"

"No! Pretty smooth!" Casey answered.

"Yet exhausting, and Casey and I shared the driving." April yawned.

"Well, have no fear!" Tyroth recurred the two humans "Your rooms are ready for you both to relax and Louie's prepared some food!"

"That's amazing T!" April smiled in relief "Can't thank you enough!"

"We just know how to look after our guests!" Sephie smiled as she had pulled away from hugging Monalisa and had picked up some suitcases.

She also turned to Sonia and the Geckolings.

"Kids? Why don't you help Kemeko, and Pandora unpack and settle in, then join us in the mess hall for dinner in an hour?"

"Sure thing Aunt Sephie!" Sonia replied.

"Yes mom!" Freya and Loki said together.


As the younger mutants ran off, the grown-ups smiled.

"Pandora and Kemeko have been so excited about coming." Monalisa confessed "Frankly since the beginning of September it's all they've both talked about, especially since now we're going to be allowed to go topside for Halloween."

"I can understand why they're excited!" Sephie chuckled "Freya and Loki have been the same! And because Sonia's practically an adult now, she can make sure they're safe and well looked after."

"That's good to know!" Michelangelo piped up as he looked over at his family, and the other turtles couldn't help but chortle at the fact their youngest brother was covered in lipstick marks from where Kate had been kissing him.

"Well, looks like you were missed!" Monalisa laughed as she looked at Michelangelo.

Michelangelo didn't really care about how funny he looked, as he was happy to see Kate again.

Old George shook his head and chuckled and Splinter also tittered.

"Come my friends!" George gestured with his paw "Let's get you settled in then we shall converse in the Mess Hall."

"Lead the way!" Michelangelo cheered and Kate leaned on his shoulder as they walked together.


Meanwhile, the Geckolings and Sonia helped Kemeko and Pandora with their luggage and helped them settle into their rooms.

As Kemeko and Pandora had considered Mutopia their second home almost, they had been given their own permanent rooms.

Pandora grinned as she entered her room and looked at the many posters of Metal Bands she liked, Anne Stokes Art and horror themed video games.

Kemeko was also happy to see her Mutopia room as well, which unlike Pandora's Rock Chick style, she had posters of New Age and Bohemian Art as well as Crystal ornaments and Bansi trees and Aloe Vera plants.

"Oh yeah!" Pandora grinned "Just the way I left it!"

"Well, it has been dusted, both rooms have when you're not here!" Loki informed.

"That's okay then!" Pandora smiled as she started to unpack her clothes and place them in the chest of drawers and wardrobe.

Kemeko did the same and as she opened the wardrobe she gasped.

"So that's where it was!"

"Where was what?" Freya asked as she walked over.

"My black and blue leotard!" Kemeko answered pulling it out of the wardrobe "I was looking for this!"

"Ah well, now you found it!" Freya laughed.

"Hey girls!" Sonia announced, "When you're unpacked, shall we converse in the Cave before we go and meet the grown-ups for dinner?"

"Totally!" Pandora called before she emerged from her room having finished unpacking.


Sonia then led her cousins to the Cave.

Since she had gotten a lot older, what was her playroom as a child, she now called it her Cave.

It was a room that she could share with her friends and cousins to play games and have movie nights as well as have slumber parties and social time away from the adults.

Leading them inside, she gestured them to sit on the beanbags or large cushions and she went over to a mini fridge near some shelves of books, DVDs and games and got them some cans of fizzy drinks.

"So!" she asked, "You guys excited about Halloween?"

"Hell yeah!" Pandora cheered.

"Oh yes!" Kemeko agreed.

"And so are we!" Freya and Loki said in unison.

Sonia walked over and handed everyone a can of soda each then sat down on a cushioned stool so she could talk with them.

"I'm excited too!" she said, "And I've picked out my costume!"

"Me too!" Pandora grinned.

"And mine too!" Kemeko added.

"What have you all decided on?" Sonia asked.

Kemeko giggled.

"Mine's a surprise!" she said, "But I'm excited to show it off!" she looked at Pandora who gave a knowing look at winked.

"Awww!" the Geckolings groaned.

"Don't worry!" Pandora winked "You'll see soon enough! Me though I'm gonna be Cheetah!"

"A cheetah?" Loki asked confused.

Pandora rolled her eyes.

"Not A cheetah, you dork!" she said "Cheetah! You know? Wonder Woman's nemesis?"

"Oh yes!" Freya exclaimed "Nice! Well suits you to a T!"

Sonia agreed with a nod and Loki looked a little annoyed at being called a dork.

Pandora smirked and nodded her head as well as held up her fingers.

She wasn't wearing her metal claws which were her primary weapons apart from her meteor hammer/rope dart Mr Swinger, but she still clawed her fingers and bared her teeth.

"What about you Sonia?" Kemeko asked "What's your outfit this year?"

Sonia smiled.

"I'm going to be a cowgirl!" she said.

"Yeehaw!" Loki cheered.

"And how about you two?" Pandora asked as she looked over at Freya and Loki.

The Geckolings looked at each other, then smirked at the hybrid.

"We're gonna surprise you!" they announced together.

"Aww really?" Pandora asked with a groan.

"Yep!" Freya said "Like Kemeko, we're gonna make it a surprise!"

"Well in that case!" Pandora smiled "I can't wait to see!"

"Likewise!" Kemeko agreed.

"Well, now we've discussed costumes." Sonia said, "I can tell you about what's going on topside for Halloween!"

"Oh yes?" Pandora asked excitedly.

"Well, for the whole week during the Halloween Holiday." Sonia announced excitedly "They're having Street parties and parades! And we can go to the Navy Pier funfair!"

"Sweet!" Pandora cried clapping her hands.

"Fantastic!" Kemeko agreed "I remember last time we went, of course the grown-ups came with us, but we had so much fun!"

"Well Uncle Tyroth has now decided we can go up ourselves now!" Sonia grinned "As long as we stay safe!"

"Finally!" Pandora cheered "Freedom!"

Kemeko sighed as she looked at her Hybrid cousin getting excited over going up topside without their parents, as she knew Pandora had been waiting for the day, they could have the independence to go topside alone.

"Oh, I can't wait!" Loki grinned "This is gonna be the best Halloween ever!"

"Let's hope so Brother!" Freya said.

"Well, it's going to be dinner time soon." Sonia said looking at the clock "And I'm sure the grown-ups will want to talk to us more about the upcoming holiday."

"I wonder what Louie's cooked up today?" Loki questioned as he licked his lips.

So everyone's excited about the upcoming holiday! I know I am!

Stay tuned for more coming soon!
