Note~ Thanks for the reviews, lots of good suggestions that I'll tuck away. I got another chapter typed up. Hope you like it

            "I have to get a job," Nancy said. It was two months later and there had been no sign of Shredder. The foot were appearing less and less as well. The turtles were all concerned believing that a calm was approaching before a big blow.

            It was evening in New York with a slightly overcast sky. Leonardo sat at The Grill, a restaurant, with Nancy. She knew her way to and from the lair from a few different points, but wanted company today.

            "You know you can stay with us for as long as you like." Leonardo said. Nancy smiled.

            "I know and I like living with you guys, but it's not fair for you guys to support me while I am here." Nancy lost her smile. "We don't even know if I'll be able to get home." Leonardo put his hand on Nancy's. She looked up at him.

            "I just hate all the worry my parents must be going through." Leonardo nodded.

            "We'll help you," Leonardo told her. "Any way we can."

            "Thank you." They talked a few more minutes and returned to the lair. Once they got there Leonardo went to talk with Donatello and Nancy sat down on the couch. Michelangelo and Raphael were playing a video game, sitting right in front of the TV.

            "You know you guys are going to mess up your eyes doing that." Nancy's words fell on deaf ears, there was no response from either turtle. Nancy sighed and went into the kitchen. She was pleased to find a radio on the counter. Flipping it on Nancy found a station that she liked. The next song started with a soft beat. Slowly Nancy started to dance and sing a long.

Tell me just what do you want me to be

One guess and whom you're the only one for me

So please tell me why

Don't you come around here no more

Cause right now I'm crying

Outside the door of the candy store

Nancy moved her hips to the beat and closed her eyes

It just takes a little bit of this

A little bit of that

Just started with a kiss

Now we're up to back

It just takes a little bit of laughs

A little bit of blame

I told my babe it's all in the game of love

Whatever you make it to be

So shy, that you could only see

So please can we try

Hand around and see what I'm good for

Ain't saying goodbye

It's knocking down the door of the candy store

It just takes a little bit of this

A little bit of that

Just started with a kiss

Now we're up to back

It just takes a little bit of laughs

A little bit of blame

I told my babe it's all in the game of love

Roll me, control me, console me, please hold me

You've got me, divide me into love

Nancy spun around with her arms above her head and opened her eyes. She was shocked to find all the turtles standing there, watching her. They applauded and Nancy gave them a mock bow with a smile.

            Michelangelo cleared out the kitchen so he could get started on dinner. When the food was ready everyone sat down at the table. As they ate, joked and laughed, Raphael remembered that the TV was left on in the next room. He went to shut it off then yelled from next room.

            "Hey guys, April is on, she's doing a special report." They all filed into the living room. Michelangelo joined Raphael on the floor, Leonardo sat on the arm of the couch, and Donatello sat next to Nancy on the couch. Splinter sat in an easy chair. This was the first time Nancy has seen what April looked like.

            "The light post on the corner of fifth and main fell today onto a pedestrian crossing the street. The pedestrian only suffered a broken leg and a few broken ribs. The disturbing findings in this case are the cut marks at the base of the light post. How and why they were cut is still under investigation. This is April O'Neil, channel three news." Raphael switched off the TV as other news came on, and turned to Leonardo.

            "Shall we investigate, fearless leader?" From Leonardo's look, Raphael continued. "Come on I'm busting for a good fight." With a nod, they went to grab their weapons. Nancy took a moment to pick up the remote. When she looked back around, the turtles were gone.

Note~ the song is Game of Love by Michelle Branch and Santana, which does not belong to me at all. The lyrics might be bit off but that's because I had to listen to the song and write it down at the same time.
