Saphira stared at the turtles, examining them with care. "You creatures…." She said, "You are not Alagaesian, are you?"
"Alagaes-what?" Raph said, looking at the dragon, "Who the heck are you? WHAT the heck are you?"
"I am a dragon. " Saphira answered, "It is quite obvious, I should think."
"I think the better question is, what are YOU?" Eragon asked, walking up to Raph,
"We're turtles dude!" Mikey exclaimed, jumping up next to Eragon.
"Mutant turtles, nonetheless." Donnie added.
"Mutant turtles…." Eragon said, "I believe you're right, Saphira. We aren't in Alagaesia anymore."
"What is this Alagaesia you keep mentioning?" Donnie asked.
"It is my home." Saphira said, "Our home."
"Wait," Eragon said, "Do you mean to say you've never even HEARD of Alagaesia?"
"Nope." Leo said, "This is New York."
"That portal must've brought us to another planet!" Eragon exclaimed, "Or another galaxy!"
"I don't think you come from anywhere near us." Donnie said, "Dragons are mythical creatures around here, as far as we know. Yet you speak English….This is puzzling, very puzzling."
"I think it's AWESOME!" Mikey shouted, dashing next to Saphira, "When are we gonna have another chance to meet a DRAGON?!"
"Possibly very soon." Saphira said solemnly, "We did not come here alone. An evil wizard by the name of Galbatorix is the reason we are here, and he has a dragon of his own in his service, Shruikan."
"Wait wait wait, WIZARD!" Leo exclaimed.
"A Dragon Rider, technically." Eragon stated. "Dragons and wizards and Riders, oh my!" Raph said with a smirk. Eragon eyed him confusedly. "Never mind." Raph said. "So, you are mutant turtles." Eragon said to Leo and Donnie, "What other creatures live in this world?"
"Humans, mostly." Leo said, "But you've got the basic selection of animals: lions, tigers, giraffes, deer, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera."
"Hmm…." Saphira said, "It seems you are the only non-Alagaesian creatures here."
"Oh, and Kraang!" Mikey exclaimed.
"Kraang?" Saphira said, "Now that is something new."
"I wouldn't expect you to know about them." Donnie stated, "They're from this place called Dimension X. In a twisted sort of way, we are too." Eragon and Saphira looked at him oddly.
"You are an alien to this world?" Saphira asked.
Donnie replied, "Kinda. We were normal turtles at one point, but we were coated in this stuff from Dimension X called Mutagen, and now we're this. Half human, half turtle."
"Interesting. It seems similar to what happened to me." Eragon said, running his fingers along his partially pointed ears.
"So what are you?" Raph asked, crossing his arms, "A mutant elf?"
"In a way, yes." Eragon said.
Raph stared at him, dumbfounded; "I half expect you to start saying that there are fairies and leprechauns running around this place too." He said.
"No." Eragon answered, "Dwarves and Urgals, yes, but no fairies or leprechauns." Once again, Raph gazed at him in open-mouthed speechlessness.
"Wow. You managed to make RAPH shut up." Mikey said, "Nice job, dude."
Raph regained his senses, rocketing off toward Mikey. "You're gonna get it!" he shouted.
"AAAAAAH!" Mikey screamed, hurtling over Saphira's back and sprinting into the woods. Leo sighed and stared at the ground while Donnie facepalmed and dragged his hand down. From a distance, you could hear Mikey screaming, "Raphael is all wise and powerful!" "
And….?" Raph's voice asked threateningly.
"And he's better than me in every possible way!" Mikey added in a terrified cry.
Eragon and Saphira looked at each other with a tinge of a smile. "It seems we have much to learn about this dimension." Saphira said, starting to grin.
"Yes." Eragon answered with a slight smile, "Yes it does."
"So, what's the deal with this Gal….Galba….how do you say his name?" Leo said.
"Galbatorix." Saphira said, "He is an evil man who has enslaved his dragon with magic and decreed himself king of Alagaesia. The only places free of his control are the elfin forest of Du Weldenvarden and the country of Surda."
"We are part of the Varden, a rebel group whose main goal is to end Galbatorix's reign." Eragon said.
"Yet another bad guy who named himself!" Mikey said, appearing from the woods with a few new bruises, Raph trailing behind him. Eragon looked at Mikey strangely.
"Mikey has this thing where whenever the Kraang mutate another creature, he has to name it." Raph said.
"Yeah, and I'm really good at it!" Mikey exclaimed, "There's Snakeweed, and Spider Bytes, and Dogpound, and Fishface, and…."
"While I'm sure this guy would love to hear the list of all the mutants you named…." Raph said, slapping a hand over Mikey's mouth, "I don't, so shut up."
"I'm also sure 'this guy' would prefer to be called by his name instead of 'this guy', Raph." Mikey said, his words slightly muddled through Raph's hand.
"Yeah, what is your name?" Leo asked. "I might be able to trace your place of origin through the name's roots…." Donnie said, pressing buttons on his T-phone.
"My name is Eragon Shadeslayer," Eragon said, "and this is…."
"Saphira Brightscales." Saphira interrupted, standing a bit straighter.
"I'm Leonardo." Leo said, gesturing to each of his brothers in turn, "This is Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo."
"Yep." Donnie said, finishing a bout of T-phone key-smacking, "There is no way you're from this planet." Eragon and Saphira glanced at each other nervously. "The names Eragon and Saphira…." Donnie continued, saying with a slight hesitation, "….don't even exist."
"What does this mean, Donnie?" Leo asked, "Are these guys Martians or something?"
"I don't believe they come from anywhere within the Sol system at all." Donnie said, "I think these guys are from another dimension."
"That would explain the dragons and the elves." Raph said.
"There seems to be some type of dimension with that consists of a continent nearly twice the size of Asia. A land where dwarves and dragons are natives and humans live alongside elves, and whatever the heck Urgals are exist." Donnie said, glancing up at Saphira when he said "dragons".
Eragon stated, "Yes, that seems like a rough description of Alagaesia. And to answer your question, Urgals are large creatures with horns that are akin to trolls or ogres." Mikey grimaced, sticking out his tongue.
"So," Raph said, "You're a human/elf mutant, who has a pet dragon, who came here trying to kill a wizard that also has a pet dragon, and you live in a dimension where dwarves and elves and dragons and magic all exist?"
Saphira stomped over to Raph and leaned ominously over him. "I am NOT a PET." She growled, snorting tendrils of fire.
Raph replied, "You're not a pet. I never called you a pet, so please don't burn me.", but he was speaking so fast it sounded more like, "You'renotapetInevercalledyouapetsopleasedon'tburn me."
Saphira smirked and said in a deep snarly voice, "You will learn not to get on the bad side of a dragon, Raphael." Raph squeaked and shrank back, his head threatening to hide in his shell.
Mikey peeked around Saphira's head and stared at Raph's face. "Whoa." He said, "You are good!" Saphira smiled; Raph glared and turned fire engine red. "High three!" Mikey declared, holding up his hand. Saphira cocked her head and stared at Mikey. "You don't know what a high three is?" Mikey said in horror.
Saphira shook her head.
"Well, humans do this thing called a high five…." Mikey explained, "But we only have three fingers, so it's a high three. You kinda just smack my hand….with your hand….we'll just demonstrate!" High three!" he shouted to his brothers. Leo, Donnie, and Raph smacked his hand with theirs. "See?" Mikey said, "Easy! So….high three!" Saphira held up her paw and wiggled her toes.
"But I have four fingers." She said.
"Oh….yeah." Mikey said with depression.
"What about high three-and-a-half?" Donnie said.
"That will work." Saphira said.
"Alright. High three-and-a-half!" Mikey raised his hand. Saphira held up her paw and smacked it into Mikey's, the force sending him flying into a tree. He moaned; you could practically see the cartoon stars and chirping birds spinning around his head. He lifted his arms, even though they were shaking like crazy, and formed thumbs up.
Saphira said in confusion, "What does that mean?" All four turtles simultaneously groaned.
So, how did you like the high three-and-a-half? And as requested by mbh040, I added a situation where Raph attacks Mikey due to his annoyance factor.
