Chapter 74
In the lair...
"Hi, Saph." Leo hung up his coat.
"Hio's!" I said.
"What did you do?"
"Me? Nothing! What makes you think I did anything?"
"I didn't say you did anything...I'm asking if you had fun or not. Did you finally beat Mikey in that--thing?"
"You mean SSBM?"
"...What?"
"You mean SS--never mind. No, I didn't. But I will."
"So then what did you do today?"
"Nothin'."
"Yeah, right!"
"It's true..."
Leo peeked in the kitchen closet. "What room did you lock them in?"
I gulped. "What makes you think I locked them somewhere?"
"Because I know you too well."
"Well I didn't!"
"Ok then, where are they?"
"I don't know!"
"I thought you knew everything. At least that's what your always telling us."
"I do know everything! Just not this time." I went back to my book.
Leo put it down. "Good book?"
"Yes. Very." I put it back in my face.
Leo took it and flipped it over. "Really? I didn't know you could read upside down..." Leo handed it back to me.
I smiled.
"What'd you do to them?"
"Nothing!"
"Then where are they?"
"I don't know! I left to go to my school, you and everybody was here, then I came home, I knew you were at work, but I didn't know where anybody else was because they weren't here, either."
"And you didn't bother to call April and Casey to see if they were at their house?"
"No. It's been quiet. I like it."
"How could it possibly be quiet with you here?"
"I'll take that as a compliment!" I smiled.
"Sapphire..." Leo slapped himself.
Ring! Ring!
"That phone has been going off all night!" I glared at the phone.
Leo walked over to the phone. "Ever wonder if it was my brothers?"
"Yes. But I didn't feel like getting up..." I smiled again.
Leo glared at me then picked it up. "Hello? Hi! Where are--Raph, calm down! She what?" Leo glared at me again. "Don't worry...we'll be right there! Bye!" Leo hung up the phone. "Let's go, Young Lady!"
"Wow. Young lady. Since when did you say that? The only person who calls me that is Raph. That's weird...he told you to say that didn't he?" I glared at Leo.
"Just get your coat on!"
"Fine!"
At the school...
"Wait, if it's locked, how will we get in?" I asked.
"That's a good point." Leo said.
"See? I know everything!"
"Shut up!"
"Hey, look!"
"What?"
"I see Mikey's face pressed against the window smiling at us! He looks funny! Where's the camra?"
"Sapphire, be quiet!"
"I can't be quiet! I'm hyper!"
"Shut-up!"
"Why?"
"I'm not going to do this with you now! Shut up!"
"Mikey's face is gonna get stuck!" I pointed to Mikey trying to get his face off the window.
"It's not going to get stuck! It is stuck! Joy..." Leo glared at Mikey.
"Maybe I don't know everything...wait, if I knew everything, then I would have gotten straight a+'s on my report card...hey, Leo! Guess what? I'M DUMB!"
"And your proud?"
"Yes!"
"Maybe you should've stayed home..."
"Did you listen to me? No! I did suggust that, but noooooooooo!"
"You never said anything about that!"
"Wow. I really am dumb...I GOTTA TELL THE WORLD! HEY, PEOPLES!"
"Sapphire! Be quiet!"
"I'M DUMB!"
"This is sooo embarrassing..."
"Embarrassing? Leo, there's nobody here!"
"Can we just get my brothers and go?"
"I don't care."
"Hold on!" Le broke through the glass window.
"THAT HURT!" I blurted.
A loud beeping broke through.
"What's that?" Mikey asked.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, the school has an alarm system...just like the battle shell." I smiled.
"Then why don't we get out of here!" Raph started running for the door when the bars came down blocking all exits.
"Hee, hee! Look!" I smiled at Raph. "Their the same bars as the battle shell!"
Raph glared at me. "I hate you..."
