Chapter Three
"Ok, Shredder, are you ready or not?" Master Splinter asked.
"Wait a minute--I don't even want to do this!" Shredder protested.
"Welcome to my world..." Raph commented under his breath.
"Just go ahead a do it, Dad." Karai said.
"You better not laugh at me!" Shredder waved his finger at her.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever..."
Master Splinter turned on the screen. "And...Go."
I
used to think maybe you love me, now baby I'm sure
And I just cant
wait till the day, when you knock on my door
Now every time I go
for the mail box, gotta hold myself down
'cos I just cant wait
till you write me, you're coming around
"What the...?" Shredder stared at the screen puzzled.
I'm
walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa
oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
And don't it feel
good
And don't it feel good
"Come on, Shredder! Sing!" Mikey laughed.
"Shut up or I'll kill you!" Shredder snapped back.
I
used to think maybe you love me, I know that it's true
I don't
wanna spend my whole life just waiting for you
I don't want you
back for the weekend, not back for a day
Baby I just want you back
and I want you to stay
I'm
walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa
oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
And don't it feel
good
And don't it feel good
I
feel alive, I feel a love, I feel a love that's real
I feel alive,
I feel a love, I feel a love that's real
"This is so embarassing..." Shredder shook his head.
I'm
walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa
oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
And don't it feel
good
And don't it feel good
I'm
walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa
oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
And don't it feel
good
And don't it feel good
I'm
walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa
oh)
I'm walking on sunshine (whoa oh)
And don't it feel
good
And don't it feel good
"Ok, Karai. Let's go. Hurry up. Shredder, get off of the stage." Master Splinter said.
"Why are you rushing us?" Mikey asked.
"I want to go meditate! But you came bardging into my room yelling that you wanted a karaoke night!" Master Splinter yelled as a reply.
"Great job, Dad," Karai laughed as she passed Shredder leaving the stage. "You really sang loudly and clearly."
"Shut up," Shredder sat down. "After this, Karai, we're leaving!"
"What! Why!" Mikey asked.
"Why do you want them to stay?" Leo asked.
"Because we all have to pair up after all this! We have to do duets!" Mikey said.
"But we weren't even apart of this in the beginning!" Shredder replied.
How the universe began
What the future holds
Why do fools fall in love
What happens to our souls
Clues to lifes mysteries
Are what we hope to find
All ways reachin' for a reason
Search' for a sign
To know the unknown
(It doesn't mean that much to me)
To know the unknown
(Some secrets are just meant to be)
Don't want all the answers
'Cause one thing is true
As long as my heart beats
I'll always love you
So I don't need to know
The unknown
"She's all ready singing..." Shredder said.
"Yeah, so be quiet." Leo said.
"Who made you boss?" Mkey asked.
"Shut up!" Raph whispered.
"And who made you boss, as well?" Shredder asked.
"Yeah!" Mikey agreed.
"Shut up before I kill you both with my bare hands." April growled.
Shredder and Mikey swaped worried glances at each other and slupped down in their seats.
Is there life on other planets
Why there's magic in a kiss
What do dreams really mean
Who hears us when we wish
Everybody's wondering
Tryin' to understand
But all the revelations
Are like castles in the sand
To know the unknown
(It doesn't mean that much to me)
To know the unknown
(Some secrets are just meant to be)
I don't need all the answers
'Cause one thing is true
As long as the earth turns
I'll always love you
To know the unknown
(It doesn't mean that much to me)
To know the unknown
(Some secrets are just meant to be)
I don't need all the answers
'Cause one thing is true
As long as the earth turns
I'll always love you
"She is really good..." Casey said.
"Oh, so, now your awake?" April asked annoyed.
"Oops."
You don't have to tell me
Just why you went away
Now that you've come back
There's nothing more to say
All I really need to know
Is that you're here to stay
To know the unknown
(It doesn't mean that much to me)
To know the unknown
(Some secrets are just meant to be)
Don't need all the answers
'Cause one thing is true
As long as my heart beats
I'll always love you
To know the unknown
(It doesn't mean that much to me)
To know the unknown
(Some secrets are just meant to be)
I don't want all the answers
'Cause one thing is true
As long as the earth turns
I'll always love you
So I don't need to know
The unknown
"That was great..." Leo smiled at Karai as she passed him.
"Thanks." She replied.
Leo just kept staring at her with a lovely gaze.
Raph noticed and smaked himself in the head. "Oh, great!"
"Is it my turn, yet?" Donnie asked.
"Yes, Donatello. It is finally your turn. Go ahead." Master Splinter answered.
"HIT IT!" Donnie yelled.
"I thought he didn't really want to do this?" Raph asked.
Leo shrugged, still staring at Karai.
"Forget it..." Raph shook his head.

"At least he's having fun,' Leo said. "Unlike someone else I know..."
Raph turned around. "Yeah, Shredder! Start having fun!"
"What?" Shredder asked.
"Not him, you! Idiot..." Leo said.

"MAN! THAT FELT GOOD!" Donnie screamed.
"I never thought that I would hear Donnie say that..." Raph said.
"Oh my God, Raph!" Leo glared at him.
Donnie could hardly breath. "I guess...April could go...Next...If she wants..."
"April? Would you like to go? Or do you want Casey to go before you?" Master Splinter asked.
"I want to listen to Casey first." April replied.
"Alright. Casey, could you come up, please?" Master Splinter called.
"What? Me? I'm next?" Casey asked.
"Yes! Go!" April pushed out of his seat and onto the stage.
"Why don't you want to go?" Donnie asked.
"If I had to go, you have to go, too! Your not getting out of this! And if you are--Tell me how." Raph begged.
"I just want to hear Casey before I go." April answered.
"I know, but why?" Donnie repeated.
"I don't know. I just do." April answered again.
"Ok, what am I doing?" Casey asked.
"He just woke up, didn't he?" Raph asked.
"He woke up when Karai was singing." April replied.
"I was talking when Karai was singing!" Mikey smiled.
"Yay?" April didn't know how to respond to that.
"Is he going to sing, or what?" Leo asked.
"Hold on. I have to find the right song..." Master Splinter got out a random song and put it int he screen.
"Ok, Casey," Raph yelled up to him. "You better have a good singing voice!"
