TMNT2 pt16

About 2 and a half hours had passed since Mikey had started to tell me about how he had got his trophy, it was a really interesting story it turns out that there is a nexus; which is a void between dimensions, and warriors come from all across the galaxy to see who will become the champion. Master Splinter was a champion and a few years ago he had to compete in the tournament but since the guys where 15 back then he thought that they weren't ready so he left Leo in charge and told them that he was going on a short recuperation break. But of course the guys being the guys they decided to follow him and soon they where entered in the tournament. Donnie and Leo where put out in the first round, Mikey didn't exactly mention why , he sort of skipped out on the details. "And then I waxed Raph's shell clean out of the arena!" he grinned,

I held up my hand "hold on a sec Mikey, your telling me that you beat Raph in a fight?" I asked raising a brow pointing to the dojo where Raph was most likely training. Mikey's grin widened and he nodded "yeah it was almost too easy" he bragged brushing his hand against his plastron "ok" I said dumbfounded shaking my head "so then what happened?" I asked getting more comfy on the chair "then I had to go against this really big giant ugly purple guy, and we were like fighting but then the Ultimate Ninja and Drako came on the field and the war staff created this mondo huge black hole that started to suck everything up but then the Diamio fixed it and then I beat the huge ugly purple guy" Mikey concluded, I blinked a few times, over a thousand questions on my mind.

But the growling in my tummy told me that I was hungry I looked up at Mikey with a sheepish expression on my face "uhh my tummy's talking to me" I giggled with a blush. Mikey started to chuckle "sounds like you need a Mikey pancake special Ava" he grinned helping me up "a Mikey what?" I asked his face fell "please don't tell me since you've been here I've never made you one of my special pancake breakfast's!" he sighed smacking his forehead, I let out a small laugh before nodding "I think I would have remembered Mikey" Mikey slowly slid his hand down off his face and grabbed my hand, pulling me toward the kitchen "I soo can't believe I never made you one, seriously someone should like knock some sense into me" he said sarcastically. "I wouldn't mind doin that!" came Raph's voice I could almost hear the smirk in his tone. I couldn't help myself when I let out a small giggle, "ha, ha, ha Raph" Mikey snapped back sticking out his tongue.

I didn't get to see Raph's reaction because Mikey practically dragged me into the kitchen and shoved me onto one of the chair's, " now don't move till I get your pancakes ready" he ordered, all I could do was blink and watch him go. In the blink of an eye he was cracking eggs, the next moment he was pulling what looked like cream out of the fridge 'I get the feeling I'm in for a treat' I thought, a small smile coming to my face, it slowly faded when I remembered something looking over to Mikey I asked "hey Mikey, what date is it?" he glanced over his shoulder "uhh it's the 5th of November" he replied.

I slowly nodded before starting at the ground 'perfect' I thought sarcastically, in four days it will be my 'birthday', I had thought that it was the day when people celebrated the day that they where born, to thank that they where so healthy but boy did my aunt prove .

FLASHBACK

An eleven-year-old Ava was sitting alone in the attic, which was where she had to sleep. It was a small room, which was empty with no source of light, she was surrounded by darkness. Ava was staring at the floor biting her lip, she knew what day today was. It was her twelfth birthday and that only meant one thing, tracing her hand across one of her many bruises she prayed that if she were quiet her aunt would forget about the day and leave her alone. The sound of the ladder being put below her made her gulp, her breath quickened as the trapdoor of the attic opened letting the light come in. the light looked like it was painted blood red, it hit the walls making shapes which started to shift as aunt Kuma's shadow began to rise, Ava let out a startled gasp when her aunt's face slowly started to rise through the gasp, the blood red lights casting shadows on her face. Ava started to whimper as her aunt came closer, pulling out a whip she muttered two words "happy birthday", not even a second had passed before she started lashing out at her with the

END FLASHBACK.

I closed my eyes not wanting to recall any more memories of my birthday; a sudden argument came into my mind 'should I even tell the guys that my birthday is in four days?'. "Ava?" came Mikey's voice pulling me back into reality "huh?" I asked looking up at him "you ok cus you kinda spaced out on me" his tone was concerned "yeah I'm fine Mikey I was just thinking about something" I explained "what about?" he inquired his voice now full of curiosity "nothing important" I quickly replied before looking at the table and letting out a quick gasp "wow" I whispered starring at the feast before me, there was a mountain of pancakes topped with whipped cream, chocolate sauce and a few cherries "yeah it's sweet isn't it" he grinned seeing my expression. Taking a fork with my left hand I took a sample off the meal and smiled with delight "Mikey this is delicious" I grinned tucking in. Mikey let out a chuckle "I thought you'd think so" he beamed, within minutes I was finished and patting my tummy contently "wow I guess you really were hungry" he laughed causing a sheepish expression to come to my face "yeah" I replied with a blush. In my mind I decided that I would tell Mikey about my birthday, but only if he would keep it a secret, I know it sounds bizarre but I think my birthday is bad luck. Letting out a sigh I looked over at Mikey again "Mikey I'm gonna tell you something but you've got to promise to keep it a secret" I said, "uh sure" he replied looking slightly confused "taking a deep breath I shut my eyes and confessed "my birthday's in four days"
