Well, enough keeping you waiting! It's the turtles' first day living with the Titans, I know you don't wanna miss this! Anyway, thanks for the reviews, I hope there will be more!
DISCLAIMER: I do not own TT or TMNT...but why? Why! Ahem Sorry.
Chapter 5: New Home, New Experiences.
The big doors of Titans Tower slid open, and the Titans led their new friends, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, into the common room. The turtles seemed to like the idea of living in this tower, even if only for a little while. One marvel stood out to one turtle, though...
"Whoa! Awesome big screen TV! I call it first, Raph!" yelled Michelangelo, rushing to the couch to get the remote.
"Oh, no you don't!" cried Raphael, chasing after him, then gave him a trip that sent Michelangelo onto his shell, and spinning into a wall, causing a loud crash.
"Ow!" cried Michelangelo.
"Told ya, Mikey!" said Raphael, plopping himself onto the couch, grabbing the remote, and leisurely flipping channels. BeastBoy was on the ground, laughing his head off.
"Well, we know that BeastBoy's going to have some good friends. This is going to make meditation more difficult than it already is..." spoke Raven, holding her head. She was getting a headache just thinking of the trouble this would cause her.
"Ah, don't sweat it. They're kept in line...most of the time." replied Leonardo.
Meanwhile, Donatello was examining Cyborg's outer machinery. "This is really quite incredible. Mind if I have a more intensive look?" he said.
"Yo! No way! What to you know about machines!" exclaimed Cyborg.
"Oh, I know a little bit." said Donatello, beginning to walk away. Turning his head around, he said "Oh, you might wanna get that weak spot to the left of your heart checked out. It could be a problem." Cyborg looked in disbelief, but obligingly began to tap on the mentioned spot. Sure enough, a little of Cyborg's tapping caused it to begin cracking deeply.
"Whoa...I guess you do know a lot." whispered Cyborg.
Splinter was exploring the rest of the tower with Robin. "You are certain that our staying here is not an intrusion?" he asked.
"Not at all. It's a big tower, and we're just five teenagers. It's not like the place is exactly packed to bursting." he joked.
"Hmm...very well. As long as it is not a problem. I warn you, though. Sometimes my sons are a lot to handle. Even I have difficulty many times."
"Well, we're not exactly the most house-rule-abiding bunch, either."
Splinter chuckled to himself. These days were going to be quite different from the days in the sewer.
Meanwhile, back in the common room...
"Hey, guys. Let's eat something special to celebrate our new buds! How about...pizza?" said BeastBoy.(AN: He said the magic word!) No Titan in the room had been prepared for what happened, but Splinter, who had just walked in with Robin, and had heard BeastBoy's query, knew exactly what was going to happen. In an instant, all turtles were silent, frozen, for only a split second. The next instant, they were all right in front of BeastBoy.
"PIZZA!" they all cried. The next minute, BeastBoy tried to descern about a hundred different toppings onto several different pizzas. Splinter was laughing to himself, both at BeastBoy's dilemma, and the other Titans' reactions. Cyborg looked amazed at anything moving at that kind of speed, Starfire was giggling in delight, Robin's mouth was gaping widely, and even Raven looked shocked, though she maintained her usual calm air somehow. Once the phenomenon was over, the turtles went back to doing whatever they were beforehand. BeastBoy tried to name off the list.
"Okay, so that 3 anchovies, 2 supremes, 5 extra cheese, 4 pepperoni, a half-dozen--ugh!--Meat Lover's, and 3 Veggie's. Is that right?" he asked hopefully.
"Yup, sounds about right." said Michelangelo, not looking up from the video game he and Raph were playing. It was Super Smash Bros. Melee, and Raph was Mewtwo, and Mikey was Bowser. They were playing a team battle against the team of Ness and Ganondorf. Raph and Mikey were well ahead of their foes. "Come on, Ness! Try that PK Flash again!" laughed Mikey, as Ness's yell of a lost live was heard.
"Hey, Ganondorf! You wanna try that Warlock Punch again!" yelled Raph, as Ganondorf screamed the last breath of a life.
"Well, they are going to be good friends with BeastBoy and Cyborg..." said Robin. BeastBoy left the room with the list of pizzas. "It's a good thing they allow us to have all the free pizza we want." muttered Robin.
"Guys, don't forget. 5:00 AM for training tomorrow!" yelled Leonardo. Cyborg gaped.
"You train at 5 in the morning sometimes!" he exclaimed disbelievingly.
"Every day. Why? Don't you guys?" Leonardo asked.
"Uh...umm...Y-Yeah! Sometimes earlier!"
"Well then, would you like to join us?"
"Uhh...s-sure?" Cyborg said uncertainly.
"Alright! Remember, 5 AM sharp!" said Leonardo, and walked to the training room, to train by himself for a while. Michelangelo paused the game, and turned to face Cyborg.
"You don't ever get up that early, do ya, dude?" he said.
"Noo..." whined Cyborg.
"Nice going, Cy." grumbled Robin. "You'll just have to go tell them that you lied. I imagine they won't take it well, considered their ninja ways deal with honor as the highest regard. And lying is very low on the list."
Cyborg gulped, and trudged off, preparing himself for the worst...
Later...
"Guys, I got the pizzas!" called BeastBoy from the door to the common room. A second later, he came in as his gorilla form, because it was the only one he had with the strength--and opposable thunbs--to lift all the pizzas. Activity stopped for the turtles again, and they rushed towards the pile of pizzas, each taking off their respective pizzas from the pile, and nearly devouring them instantly. They did leave some for the Titans, though, who took their pizzas with a bit less enthusiasm. Everyone stared at the turtles.
"What can I say? They love pizza." said Splinter, watching his sons with amuzement.
"Well, I just hope they can eat more than that." said Robin, still staring.
Later that night...
The layouts had been done. The turtles did not need much room, so they took the common room as their sleeping quarters. Later, after the Titans had gone to their respective rooms, people who were looking around would have discovered 5 new shapes in the common room. Leonardo took a corner to himself, the same place he would meditate occasionally. Michelangelo slept on the booth that made the dining table, Raphael had the couch, Donatello slept against the couch, and Splinter slept next to the large windows in the common room, leaning against a wall. It was the turtles first night in the Titans Tower, and it was one of the best nights of rest they had ever slept. They knew they were going to have a great time with their newest friends.
AUTHOR'S NOTE
Kind of a sappy ending, do you think? I just thought it would be a good little ending to the first experiences the turtles had in the tower. What do you think?
And for you fans wondering where the romance is, I've already done a bit of the RobxStar, but the turtles' effect on BBxRae will be next chapter, hopefully.
Don't forget to R&R! See you soon!
