Ann: Here is chapter 1 for "Runaway Turtle". In this, I'm married to Donny and we have a daughter named Hope.

Chapter 1

"So you want to play Bulls-Eye Ball?" the Bulls-Eye Ball machine asked.

A little girl nodded her head.

"30 seconds on the clock...GO!"

The girl kept on bouncing the little metal balls into the three targets. Then she missed, and it dropped on the floor.

"CUT!" I yelled.

"Again?" the camera guy asked.

"I said, cut." I glared.

"Sorry." Hope said.

"Hope, I told you to practice! That way you wouldn't drop the balls! Didn't you practice?" I asked.

"No." Hope admitted.

"Why?"

"Because I didn't feel like it."

"What? You didn't feel like it? Oh for God sakes!"

"I said I was sorry."

"I know that! What take are we on?"

"34." the camera guy answered.

"Great. We'll take a break. Go to your room, and don't come out until we're going on the set again. And do your homework while your up there!"

Up in Hope's room...

"I don't want to do work. Mostly because its for school! I hate school! And I'm begining to hate this whole commercial business! I want to go outside and play. Have a little bit of fun for once in my life." Hope complained.

So that's just what she did. She took her sheets from her bed and tied them together to form a little rope. Then she threw it out the window and climbed down it.

Down at the lair...

"Donny will you play with me?" Mikey asked.

"I'm working on a project. Go ask Raph." Donny answered.

"Ok." Mikey walked into the kitchen"Raph? Will you play with me?"

"No. I'm training. Now leave." Raph answered.

"Ok." then Mikey went into the living room"Leo, will you play with me?"

"I can't. I taping this show for Master Splinter. Besides, we're 25 years old. Don't you think that we're a little too old to play games and do all of that stuff?" Leo asked.

"Yeah. I guess your right." Mikey was really sad so he decided to runaway because he thought that nobody liked him because nobody would play with him. So he did the same thing that Hope did. He grabed his sheets from his bed, tied them, and threw them out the window to form a rope.

Back at the commercial place...

I yelled up the stairs"HOPE! YOU CAN COME DOWN NOW! WE'RE GONNA DO THE COMMERCIAL AGAIN!" I walked up staris and she wasn't there. "Hope?" Then I saw it. I saw the rope. "Oh,no!"
