Chapter 4: April's house
"Have I really been talked about?" Lena asked the red head looking over at Leo covering his face.
"Yes! It's like you broke them or something!" April laughed and motioned for the two to come into her apartment. April was still in her PJs, since it was 11 at night. April was probably having one of the best dreams ever when Leo's message woke her up. She admitted it was annoying to get a message at 10:45. Lena jumped on April's couch and laid down until Leo pushed her back into a sitting position.
"What?" Lena complained as Leo pointed towards the hallway.
"You cannot sit until you clean yourself up,"
"Awww!" Lena got up and walked towards the hallway.
"Wait! Lemme get you some towels and soap first," April said as she ran down the hallway. Lena watched as the red head pulled out different types of soap and at least three towels.
"Why are you pulling out so much stuff?" Lena asked April as she pulled out a loofa.
"Well, I figured since you look like a wreck, you may want a shower," She answered without looking at Lena. She opened the curtain to the shower and explained it before Lena could protest. April smiled and left the bathroom leaving Lena staring at the door wide eyed. Okay, she thought, now to take a shower. She stripped and took her shower.
She washed off the blood on her arms and the grime on her body, then sort of sat down in the tub and let the hot water run over her body. Lena thought about how nice Leo was to her back on the roof. He still didn't tell her much about them, like where they came from. She frowned and looked at her knuckles, they started to bleed again. She groaned and got up from the tub and turned off the water to get out. She carefully didn't get blood on April's towels and saw she put out some gauze for her hands. Lena smiled and wrapped her knuckles in the white gauze. She put on some fresh clothes April left out for her, when she heard a knock on the door.
"Hey, it's Leo. You've been in there for a long time, everything ok?" his voice sounded worried. She opened the door to find the blue masked turtle reaching for door knob. She raised her eyebrows as he froze in that position.
"Were you going to open the door?"
"Maybe,"
"What if I was naked?" Lena bit her lip to hold back a laugh. She saw Leo's face go red from embarrassment and take his hand back.
"Um," His eyes searched the room until they landed on her hands.
"I see your hands are still bleeding?" He changed the subject quickly. Lena looked at her hands and tightened them into fists.
"Yeah, they sting a bit too. But I'll tough it out," She smiled at turtle with eager eyes. Leo smiled back and gestured for Lena to get out of the bathroom. She walked down the hallway with the turtle behind her and felt a tingling sensation up her spinal cord. Lena frowned at her back as a pit grew in her stomach. She didn't get what she was feeling, if it was good or bad. She rounded the corner to find April on her computer typing away furiously. Leo went in front of Lena and sat on the couch next to her.
"Whatcha workin on, April?" Leo asked the red head peaking over her shoulder. She frowned and pounded on the delete button.
"It's an essay. I was going to ask Donnie for some help, but you guys came over," April smiled at Lena and patted the couch seat next to her. Lena sat down next to the red head and finger-combed her hair. April shut her computer lid and got up, only to turn around again to look at her. She gasped and face palmed herself.
"IKNEWIT!" April yelled her blurred words together. Leo and Lena's eyes widened as they looked at each other. April looked back at Lena and leaned against the coffee table to get closer to Lena.
"You are Lena Caparelli. You are the richest kid in the world,"
Lena's eyes widened even more as she saw Leo turn towards her. Her cheeks filled with air as they burned with anger.
"You're parents are gone and you're running away from the press! That's what you're doing!" April exclaimed excitedly as she pointed at the blonde. Lena blew out all the air from her cheeks and bit her lip. She looked towards the left to avoid eye contact.
April ran over to where Lena was looking, "I thought you looked familiar!" Lena hid her eyes from April and turned to the left to lean her elbow on the armrest.
April peaked under Lena's hand, "Don't hide it! It's kinda obvious when you're on TV all the time,"
Lena's stomach plummeted when she said that. She pulled her knees up to her chest and put her large t-shirt over top of them. She pulled the neckline of the t-shirt and ducked her head inside of it so she couldn't see them. The first time, she had great friends that didn't know about her secret, until now. Tears welled up inside of her eyes, but she quickly blinked them away. She felt her t-shirt above her head pull down and form around her neck.
"You do know we don't care about how rich you are or not, right?" Leo asked the teen. Lena kept her head covered by her knees as Leo sighed. He decided that he would have to change the subject very quickly in order to see her face again.
"What was it that you wanted to ask me up on the roof?" Leo poked the girl making her shift more. She brought her head up and finger-combed her hair nervously.
"How did you guys become what you are now?" Lena looked at Leo with wide eyes.
"Well, it was about sixteen years ago when it happened. Our sensei lost his wife a couple years before hand in Japan so he moved here in New York. He decided to get some pets to keep him company instead of a new wife. So he bought four, baby turtles," Leo smiled at Lena who was listening to him intently.
"When exiting the store, he bumped into a man on the corner of a street. The man dropped his package he was carrying and dumped it on Sensei and the turtles. Sensei ran away from the streets down to the sewers with the slowly mutating turtles," Leo finished his story quickly noticing the time. Lena was frowning at the turtle as she parted her mouth.
"Is that really simplified?"
"Unfortunately, yes," Leo looked up at April who was in front of him. She was about to speak when she heard her door open. A man in a jacket with a white shirt on underneath came in. He had a red beard and hair, like April. He put his jacket on the kitchen chair and turned around to see the three teens in the living room. Lena held her breath for a moment until the man smiled.
"You didn't tell me you had friends coming over!" he laughed and hugged April.
"Hi, Mr. O'Neal!" Leo exclaimed with a smile.
"Hey, Leo! How are your brothers?"
"Great!"
April's father looked over at Lena who was watching Leo with wide eyes.
"I don't think I've met you before? What's your name?" he smiled at the blonde. Lena gasped and looked away from the man. Would he recognize her name at the beginning?
"Lena Caparelli," She smiled and shook the man's hand. Mr. O'Neal looked at the teen bewildered, but smiled back.
"We need to go, now," Leo said leaning towards the window. Lena nodded and followed him out. She waved back at April and her dad and left the room. They went over to a street close to her house and stopped.
"Pull out your phone and type this in," Leo pulled out his T-Phone and clicked 'Add Contact'. Lena pulled out her phone without a sound and typed in the numbers Leo gave her.
"Why do I need this?" Lena finally asked.
"You probably have more questions and if you ever get in trouble. But, I'm pretty sure you won't need any, especially with some Karate on your side," He winked at her. Lena beamed back and did some sort of ninja pose.
"But in my opinion, you should learn ninjutsu. It will make you better prepared,"
"What's the difference?" Lena asked as Leo laughed his head off hysterically.
"Google it," He turned away from the blonde and headed down the street waving at Lena. She smiled and headed towards her house. After a while, she giddily skipped to her front door. She opened the front door, forgetting she snuck out of her house through her bedroom window. She stopped smiling when she saw the house was pitch black. She frowned and headed to her maids room. She saw an empty bed and her maid's working clothes thrown messily on her bed.
"Glenda?"
