Chapter threeeee! Welcome back! Hope you guys like this chapter!
Coro woke up in the morning, his scowl still printed on his face. He got out of bed and walked out to where his daughters were all talking, or well, most of them. Isabella was still missing. Micah looked up to see her father and she walked over to him. "Father!" she said energetically. "We found her! We found Isabella!" Coro looked at her, then at Carmen and Ninalia.
"Where is she, then?" he asked. Ninalia walked over to the portal and flipped on to Earth.
"She's there, Father," she said softly. "New York City, to be exact." Coro nodded once, then turned to his room.
"Good work, girls," he said flatly, walking towards his room and shutting the door behind him. Micah frowned and turned to her sisters.
"So," she said, "how are we going to get her back here? She always said that she'd leave the minute she got the chance and then never come back." Carmen shrugged and put a hand on Micah's shoulder.
"Father will figure it out," she said. "Everything will work out fine. Izzy will come back and everything will be how it used to." Ninalia chuckled bitterly and sat down.
"I doubt it," she said as her sisters sat with her. "She hates Father. If she was ever going to come back, we'd have to drag her here." She sighed and looked up at the other two.
"I hope she's okay," Micah said. Carmen put an arm around Micah's shoulders.
"We all do," she said.
…..
"Donatello!" Isabella cried from her bedroom. Donny came rushing into the room quickly and opened her door. Isabella was standing there, holding an alarm clock that was going off nonstop. Donny walked over to her and pushed the off button on the clock. Isabella sighed and put it down. "Thanks…" she said, blushing. "What is that thing?"
"It's just an alarm clock, Izzy," Donny said as he rubbed his forehead.
"Oh," Izzy said as she sat on her bed. Donny looked at her then sat next to her. "I'm sorry if I woke you, Donatello."
"You can call me Donny if you want," Donny said. "Now, what's wrong?" Izzy looked up at him and sighed.
"I don't know," she said with a shrug. "I should be really happy, but I can't help but feel guilty. I feel like I failed my sisters."
"Why did you leave your dimension, anyway?" Donny asked, curious and concerned. Isabella bit her lip and looked at Donny.
"My father's a bit… abusive," she said with embarrassment. "Ever since I was little he's told me how much he wishes I wasn't born and how I'm too much of a disgrace to my family name to be considered a Cialis. He's even…well…hit me more times than I care to count." Donny's eyes widened as he saw Isabella's eyes filling with water. He reached out his hand, but hesitated. He bit his lip and touched her shoulder, her soft skin shivering slightly at his cold skin. She stared at him and sniffled a bit, leaning so she could rest her head on his shoulder.
It felt nice for her to be comforted. She was used to a pat on the back or an encouraging statement, but she had never actually been held. Donny put his arm around her and rubbed her back. She was so fragile, it was scary. Donny touched Isabella's hair and then something happened that made him jump in shock. Her hair began to glow. Donny stared at her hair in confusion as Isabella looked at him.
"Sorry," she said. "It does that during pure emotions." Donny's eyebrows raised and he smiled a bit.
"What's the feeling now?" he asked. Isabella smiled and looked down, blushing.
"I'm actually happy for once," she said. She looked at Donny again and smiled, more than she had in awhile.
"Am I interrupting somethin'?" a voice asked from the door. Raphael was standing there, leaning against the door frame with a bottle in his hand. "Donny, it's trainin' time. Say later to ya girlfriend and get movin'." Donny glared and stood, Isabella following him. Raphael smirked and left, heading for the dojo.
"Well," Donny said, "I got to go train for awhile. Do you want to stay in here?" Isabella smiled and shook her head.
"Can I train with you?" she asked, excited. Donny thought for a moment. "Please? I can fight pretty well. Please?" Donny smiled and rolled his eyes.
"Fine," he said. Isabella's face brightened and the two headed for the dojo.
…..
An hour or two had passed since the turtles and Isabella had been training and Donatello was way past impressed. Izzy wasn't even tired and was sparing with Leonardo.
"You have excellent skill, Leonardo!" Isabella shouted in adrenaline. Leo smirked and continued his movements. Isabella dodged, kicked, blocked, and punched, not letting up for a second. Leonardo was even getting impressed with the girl's skill. She was a highly and rather well-trained ninja.
In his distractions, Leo had forgotten to block a kick from Isabella and he went down once a foot hit his knee. Isabella jumped on top of him and pinned him with her foot on his chest.
"Whoa!" Michelangelo shouted as they all rushed over to her. Isabella put her hand out and helped Leonardo up. Michelangelo grabbed the girl's shoulders and shook her playfully. "You are awesome, Dudette! You are the most ninja-esque ninja ever!" Isabella laughed a bit and looked at Donny, who was smiling softly. She returned his smile, until her eyes slid to Raphael. He was looking at her with his smirk, but that didn't bother her. It was his eyes that made her slightly uncomfortable. They were slightly lidded and darker than his normal color. Isabella looked away and smiled again.
"I'm thirsty," she said as she turned to walk towards the door. Both Donny and Raph took a step forward to follow her. They looked at each other until Raph shrugged and turned away again. Donny walked out and followed Isabella to the kitchen. She was standing at the sink, staring at the faucet with a confused look in her eyes. "How in the world do you work this thing?" Donny chuckled and reached around her, flipping up the water lever and filling her glass. "Thanks. In my dimension we have a little button that lets you choose what you want to drink." She drank her water and when she was done she put her glass down. She looked over at Donny again and smiled. "Can we go outside?" she asked in excitement. "I wanna explore the city." Donny shrugged and chuckled.
"You seem pretty excited," he said.
"Of course I am!" Izzy said. "This is my first time out of my dimension! It's awesome!" Donny smiled broadly at the girl in front of him. She seemed so energetic, much more than she was when they had met a week ago. Donny grabbed her hand and led her back to the dojo.
"Hey, Leo," he said, making the blue-clad turtle look over at him, "Izzy and I are gonna go outside, okay?" Leo shrugged his shoulders.
"It's fine with me," he said. "Just be careful."
"I'm comin' with ya," Raphael said, walking forward. Izzy looked at him and frowned a little. There was something about Raphael that she didn't really like. Donny smiled and nodded.
…..
Isabella was having an absolute blast outside. They were running and jumping over building gaps and it was the most fun thing she'd ever done. She was, however, a little behind Raphael and Donatello. Donny looked back at Izzy and smiled.
"How are you holding up, Izzy?" he called to her. Izzy laughed and continued on.
"This is amazing!" she cried happily. "I've never done this before! It's awesome!" Donny chuckled and Raphael smirked.
The three soon reached a larger building to take a rest and Izzy was still bouncing around. Raph looked at her and crooked his brow.
"Do ya ever get tired?" he asked, exasperated. Izzy looked over at him and chuckled with a smirk.
"Not usually," she said. Raph huffed and took a seat on the side of the building. Donny chuckled and walked over to Izzy.
"How are you not tired or sweating?" he asked curiously. Izzy giggled and looked at him.
"I don't have sweat glands," she said. "It's one of those nice traits in the gene pool. My mother had sweat glands, but Father didn't, so he had the top genetic." Raphael suddenly groaned.
"What's with all the nerd talk all of a sudden?" he asked, making Izzy look over at him with a small glare.
"That's rather rude, Raphael," she said indignantly. Raph looked up at her and smirked.
"How so?" he asked. "I was just askin' a simple question." Izzy crossed her arms and took a step towards Raphael.
"You shouldn't enter a conversation when you don't know what we're talking about," she said. Raphael stood up, returning the girl's glare.
"What makes ya think I don't know?" he asked in a low growl. Donny was watching the two argue and he kept looking for a time to intervene, but there hadn't been one quite yet. "Ya barely know me at all."
"Oh, believe me," Izzy said, narrowing her eyes, "I don't need to know you that much to know that you have no idea what we were saying." Raph walked over to her and ended up nose-to-nose with her. He craned his neck a little, considering how short Isabella was. Izzy stared up at him, glaring right back and not backing down an inch. "You're in my space," she said with a small smirk. Raph's fists clenched, making Donny finally step forward.
"Enough, guys!" he shouted. Izzy looked at him and sighed, stepping away from Raph and moving over to Donny. Raph rolled his eyes and the three began to make their ways back to the lair.
…..
Micah was walking through the palace, just taking a small stroll out of boredom. She soon heard her father's voice coming from the phone room. She walked over and stood next to the door, listening and hearing her father talking to a raspy female voice.
"I need you to do this job for me, 6," he said. The other voice was quick to answer.
"What do you want, Coro?" she asked.
"My youngest daughter, Isabella, has ran off to another dimension and I want her back," Coro said. "I know you of all people can do it."
"What's in it for me?"
"Name your price."
"You know exactly what I want," the voice said. "I want the medallion." Coro groaned and glared.
"Fine," he said. "I'll give it to you. Just bring my daughter back. Dead or alive, I don't care." The other voice soon evaporated and Micah ran through the palace to her sisters' room.
"Carmen! Nini!" she shouted when she got there. The girls looked up at her. "It's father!"
"What's wrong?!" Nini shouted, getting up from her bed. Carmen stood from her chair and walked over to the girl. "Is he alright?"
"He's sending 6 after Izzy! I heard him talking to her!" Carmen's eyes widened.
"He wouldn't do something like that," she said. "6 could kill Izzy."
"He told 6 to bring Izzy back dead or alive," Micah said. "I'm telling the truth." Nini and Carmen exchanged glances and Nini nodded.
"If Micah's saying it, it must be true," she said softly.
"What should we do?" Carmen asked. Nini sighed.
"We need to go get her," she said quietly.
"She would never come back, even if we asked her to," Carmen said.
"We have no choice," Nini said in annoyance. "It's better we do it than 6."
"Okay then," Micah said. "We'll go tomorrow."
Well, there's chapter three! Hope you liked and I will have chapter 4 up soon!
