Lost In the Woods
Part 3
Disclaimer: If you honestly think I came up with the idea for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – then you seriously need to educate yourself on all things TMNTs. In simple terms – I borrow them and play with them for my enjoyment and others. I do not get anything out of this, except a little bit of fun. I am sure those who keep nagging me to up-date are a little happier now. Please Read and review…. Poss
"Wake up!" Raph gently kicked Mikey's foot.
"Hey I need my beauty sleep!" Mikey mumbled, grinning at Molly.
"If you slept for a thousand years you'd still be ugly, now get your lazy arse up!" Raphael demanded.
"Is he always as much fun getting up in the morning?" Molly giggled, as Mikey slowly got up.
"I'm not as much fun as Raph is first thing in the morning. I don't recommend throwing iced water over him to wake him up – cos he really hates that!" Mikey told Molly.
"Oh dear, that must have been horrible," Molly said, looking at Raph.
"Add to the fact that it was the middle of winter and bonehead here was bored one morning and wanted something to do," Raph thumbed at his brother.
"Despite the bruises I coped – it was all worth it to see his happy morning face that day!" Mikey chuckled as Raph started to move along.
The three ventured towards the road again to find out where they were. They climbed their way through the scrub using their hearing to guide them. Every now and then, Raph would stop to listen for any one following them. They did not need any unwanted travel companions.
"There it says the New Yorker Mile Road Café," Mikey pointed to a big sign with a huge coffee pot on it.
"Yeah trust you to find the food, Mikey," Raph said.
"Well it's the New Yorker Mile – must be just outside of New York with that kind of a name!" Mikey retorted.
"Right lets go in that direction…."
"Take the left Leo," Donnie cried from the back of the van. He was watching the two red dots on his computer.
"Are they still together?" Master Splinter asked.
"Yeah, they obviously haven't had time to fight yet," Donnie replied.
"No doubt it won't be long til they do start a fight, knowing those two. Mikey will probably want to grab a bite to eat, and Raph will just want to rush the way home without stoping cos he knows he's missing the hockey finals," Leo stated.
"Do not doubt your brothers, my son, they will stay together. No matter how much they upset the other, they have one common goal and that is to head back home. They know that by splitting up it would not be as productive as if they stayed together," Master Splinter said.
"Oh great!" Donnie cried.
"What's wrong?" Leo asked.
"They keep heading west, the two bozos! Why are they going that way?"
"Maybe they are truly lost without any direction," Leo replied.
"Maybe they are not alone and their direction is not their choice," Master Splinter suggested.
"You mean they could be still held hostage?" Leo looked to his father.
"Perhaps, though I hope for their sake they are not," Master Splinter said.
"Man I wish their turtle-coms worked, then I could yell at them for going in the wrong direction!" Donnie cried.
"My son, modern technology is not the only way to channel information to your brothers. I shall try to communicate with them through meditation. Leonardo, make sure you have a rest from driving soon, my son."
"Great one Mikey!" Raph hit his forehead with his hand.
"Well I didn't know!" Mikey cried.
"It's a common mistake," Molly said, as they all looked at the run-down and abandoned New Yorker Mile Café.
"Maybe there's a directory in there?" Mikey suggested to his brother.
"Well you go have a look, I'm not wasting my time looking in there!" Raph cried in frustration. They had spent most of the day walking to find this dump before him. Mikey went into the rundown building, while Raphael and Molly kept watch.
"Boss, we found out where they're heading," A not much left of him Baxter Stockman came into the Shredder's dinning room. Shredder was entertaining a selected guest.
"Well you should not have lost the turtles in the first place, you bumbling fool! Hun please distribute my foot ninjas after them. I want them destroyed!" Shredder crumpled up his plastic cup.
"Yes, master." Hun bowed and left as he did what he was told.
