"Really? Are you sure?" he worried. "Of course, you can meet my family." she smiled happily.
"Alright then, shall we go?" he insisted. Rachel nodded, happily. "Of course, we shall."
The reunited friends walked out, rachel paid for the meal whilst she waited and handed her helmet to her friend.

Rachel smiled. "I know all the shortcurs and hodden drive throughs to avoid been seen by the police cameras."
Bruce chuckled, glanced rachel and said. "Sly devil. I trust you, always have. 'd never be here if I ignored your wisdom." Rachel smiled and replied. "As I have been told by my father inlaw, it is your own inner wisdom guiding you and teaching you along your journey."
"He sounds like a very wise man. I'd like to meet him."
"You will but dont be afraid of him when you meet him. He is a very kind soul."
"How do you mean, afraid of him?" he asked with a raised brow of worry.
"I promise you, he is very kind. Old fashioned but kind." rachel assured. Bruce sighed and said. "I trust you and I believe you. I will give this man a chance to know him as you have."
Rachel smiled again. "You wont regret this, I promise." Bruce nodded, placed the helmet on as he climbed upon and behind Rachel and they rode to the lair through the street shortcuts.

"We wait fir my brother and we will begin with the next step." The door opened and a trench coat figure walked in, removing his hat.
"Speak of the angel." elena smiled as she stood up from her chair and hugged Donatello. "This must be the tech geek, I assume?" luka asked, curiously.
Donatello looked around, sheepishly smiled. "That is what my sister said about me?" elena chuckled.
"Of course silly, you are the clan brains."

"I promise." donatello smiled. Meanwhile masey's diner. Coming to closing time, selene glanced the lost child. Drenched in wet clothing and hadnt finished eating her cheese and sandwich. Draping her trench coat on, over her waitress uniform. Her boss, Ernie handed over another sandwich and fresh strawberry milkshake Selene smiled and mouthed. "Thank you."
Ernie smiled and nodded, glanced to his right when the little girl had vanished "Selene, the little girl had disappeared."
Selene glanced toward thr seat where Rosie sat and she dropped the sandwich and milkshake, hurriedly ran out and called out for Rosie. "Rosie."
Ernie hurriedly followed and grasped selenes biceps as he stood behind her. Selene continued to call out for Rosie.
"Selene, gotta let her go. If she wishes to stay. She would. Only can pray, she will be safe and find some shelter." selene nodded.

Interrupted the adults, talking as Elena turned and gasped.
