Disclaimer: Don't own the turtles, wish I did, cause then I'd have money.
A/N: Ok, I mislead you guys a little. Lona is a teeny bit Mary Sue-ish, I admit, but she still cool, I think. Now...SHOUTOUTS! I'm gonna do this at the beginning, because I'm too tired to do it at the end.
Visitor: Yeah that was a Mikey thing to do! Of course, I do it to people all the time...but whatever.
Linchi: I'm glad you're looking for more, and I usually don't like romances either, which is weird, since I'm writing this. And don't worry, I would never forget about CatAstrophy.
Pacphys: Good point, but I think the overall shock of meeting a giant turtle hasn't worn off on Lona yet!
Sulwen Undomiel: Here's your chappie!
Dory's Human Replica: MIKEY ROCKS!!! dances
Gemdrive 2000: Oh my god! I forgot the cliffhanger? How could I do that!!?? LOL. Don't worry, I've gotten back in my little cliffy groove now. Yes, making Lona scream is a VERY Mikey thing to do, is it not?
Saturniia: Hey, I like your screen name! Yeah, I admit, Lona is somewhat Mary Sue-ish, but I can't help it, that's how I write. And don't worry. I have a feeling Lona is going to be very....entertaining.
"Guys! I'm home! Guys?" Mikey shouted through the door of the lair, Lona following shyly behind him.
"You live in the sewer?" She asked curiously.
Mikey fidgeted a bit. "Yeah, well, mutant turtles aren't allowed in the Hilton, ya know?"
Lona laughed. "It's okay. You said there were four of you. Where is everybody?"
Mikey frowned. "I don't know. Usually Leo would be all over me cause I was late-"
"You're late, Mikey." Came a voice from the kitchen. Leo stepped out, fooling with his belt. "Who were you talking to, anyway?"
Leo looked up, and froze as he locked eyes with Lona. "Who are you?" he asked somewhat coldly.
"Uh...Lona?" she said, a little intimidated by the giant blue-wearing turtle. This must be Leo...
"Uh huh...well Lona, could you excuse us for just one minute? I need to talk to my brother."
With that, Leo and Mikey disappeared into the kitchen.
Lona looked around the room she was in. A couch...a bridge? What do they need a pool for? Lona made a mental note to ask Mikey later.
Lona finished her self-tour of the living room. Mikey and Leo hadn't come out of the kitchen yet. Curious, Lona tiptoed to a corner near the kitchen and listened. She heard Leo's voice.
"-Strangers into the lair."
"Yeah, but Leo, she had nowhere to go and-"
"Mikey, did you ask her if she was staying somewhere?"
"Yeah, she said nowhere."
"Maybe she meant something else."
Mikey said something Lona couldn't hear, then Leo's shout. "Whatever Mikey, deal with this yourself."
Leo stormed out of the kitchen and nearly bumped into Lona. "Uh...hi?" she said. He merely shook his head and disappeared into another room.
Mikey came out of the kitchen looking embarrassed. Lona looked thoughtfully at him.
"Y'know Mikey, if my being here is a problem, I don't have to be here."
Mikey looked confused. "I thought you said you weren't staying anywhere?"
Lona sighed and played with her hair. "I might have mislead you a little. See, I'm living with my uncle. He's a really nice guy, but I just get frustrated at him sometimes, so I told you I wasn't staying anywhere."
"Oh." Mikey looked a little disappointed. "I guess I'd better take ya home then."
"Yeah, maybe." Lona said. "Tell you what...on the way there we can get a pizza." She stopped. "You do like pizza, right?"
Mikey stared at her. "Are you nuts? I love pizza! C'mon, let's go."
Lona laughed, and Mikey led the way out of the lair. She turned in the doorway for one last look at this strange turtle's home. If all the others were like the blue one, she didn't want to meet the rest of his family. But if the rest of them were like Mikey...she smiled to herself.
"Are you coming or what?" Mikey yelled from the tunnel in front of the lair, his voice echoing.
Lona blinked and followed her new friend.
Mikey studied Lona from under his fedora. She was seated across from him, her black army jacket now tucked neatly into the corner of the restaurant booth. The soft glow from the lights lit up her face and highlighted her brown hair.
"Penny for your thoughts?"
Lona's voice shook Michelangelo out of his daydream. "Huh...wha?"
Lona grinned. "I said, a penny for your thoughts?"
Mikey looked at her blankly. What was she talking about?
Lona rolled her eyes. "What are you thinking, silly."
"Oh! Not much....just trying to decide what to get on the pizza."
Lona studied the menu. "I really like sausage. What about you?"
Mikey gave her his trademark goofy grin. "Chocolate chips, gummi worms, and ice cream."
Lona nodded thoughtfully. "I'll have to try that." Mikey was surprised. Most people got grossed out when he told them his favorite pizza toppings. Soon the waiter came, and soon after that the pizza came.
The extra large pizza was gone in ten minutes. "Now, I really need to get you home, Lona." Mikey said. He was a bit disappointed, because he wanted to get to know her better, but he had been gone too long already, and if Leo didn't lecture him, Master Splinter surely would.
Lona looked slightly disappointed too, but said nothing as she slipped on the too-big army jacket.
Mikey sighed. He really didn't want this to end.
Standing on top of a tall office building, Mikey silently watched Lona disappear into a large apartment complex. He made sure she was safely inside, then jumped down onto the lower level of rooftops and made his way home.
Upon entering the lair, Mikey braced himself for any kind of lecture from Leo or from his sensei. When nothing came, he looked around the living room of the lair, surprised. Where was everybody?
He gently pushed open the door to Master Splinter's bedroom. Splinter knelt in the middle of the floor, meditating. "Sensei?"
Mikey asked quietly. Splinter opened one of his eyes, saw Michelangelo and slowly opened both of them. "Where is everybody?"
"Your brothers have gone to the harbor. There was another disturbance with the Foot."
Mikey winced. He should have been there when his brothers left for battle, but now was as good a time as any. Mikey bowed to Splinter and ran out the door, pulling his nunchucks from his belt.
A/N: I know it's short, sorry. Short chapters seem to be my modus operandi nowadays. Anyway, I'm really tired, so if there's any mistakes, can you tell me? I'm so tired I wrote Splinter's line like this: "Your brothers have gone to the harbor. There was another disturbance in the Force." I fixed it though, obviously. So..yeah, I'm tired, and I like Star Wars. REVIEW!
