Chapter 4: Sewer Tunnels and Funny Turtles
Authors Note: Each turtle gets their own POV!
Words strung together indicated slurring. Once again regular italics indicate words in someone's mind.
RAPH'S POV: So we've been travelin' these tunnels a lot slower than usual to get home, cuz good ol' Mikey got himself shot with a dart! Sure, scaring me half to death with his eyes staring off into space and not respondin' to nothin' wasn't bad enough. Now he's startin' to talk about who knows what! Last I checked it was butterflies flying around his head…All I can hope now is Don can get him back to normal. And soon…
MIKEY'S POV:
WOW….this tunnel is HUUUUUGEEE…..Lucky me! There's so much to explore!
"Donnie! Can welike….gothrough all these weird…color-pattern things?"
What is this? Everything'sssswirling around….
"No Mikey, we have to head back to the lair."
"Awww, COME ON!"
"You heard him bozo. We gotta get ya home."
I turned my head slowly to Raph's direction. His bandana swirled a bit, then it turned normal again and I saw his regular, happy face. Haha.
"You reeeeeally ought to put a s-smile on, R-Raph…McDonald saysso…."
I think Leo and Don laughed….Why? I only told the truth….
"Shut up."
"Raph. That is not good language." I scolded him. Scolded? Have I ever done that before?
"Zip it goofball! You're just lucky you're-"
Raph didn't finish his sentence. I think Leo gave him one of his stares….
... ... ... ...
We keep walking through these tunnels...Suddenly I notice something bright fly above us.
"Wait!" I stopped. The others stopped too.
"What is it Mikey?" Don asked me.
"Something…flew-above-us…"
"Probably just a fly," he said.
"No! No! No! It was…brighter…" I smiled at that. I think it was fairy….
"Um…let's just keep going Mikey. If it shows up again we'll get a better look at it." Leo said.
Don't those two have any imagination! If could be ANYthing!
Finethen... I'll keepa lookout for it...
DON'S POV:
Mikey's arm I'm supporting with my own right now is really starting to take its toll. He can't walk fast at all in his condition and in case his legs give out again I gotta be ready to catch him. Though I'm still not sure exactly what got into his system, I'm certain it involves some psychoactive properties based on how he's acting-
"Wait!"
Mikey suddenly stopped.
I sighed.
Great…another hallucination….
"What is it Mikey?" I asked him tiredly.
"Something…flew-above-us…"
"Probably just a fly." I said reasonably. If he did see anything it's probably just blown out of proportion from his point of view.
"No! No! No! It was…brighter…"
A big smile went on his face.
"Um…let's just keep going Mikey. If it shows up again we'll get a better look at it." Leo said, trying to offer some sense in the matter.
We had been walking only 2 minutes when he mentioned it again.
"There it is!" Mikey shouted excitedly.
I glanced over at Leo and Raph. They looked up at me with a look of "Have you figured anything out?" I shook my head.
I just needed to double check some of my theories in the lab before I proclaim anything, although I am leaning toward-
"I'LL GET YOU!" Mikey suddenly dashed from next to me down the tunnel ahead of us.
"Mikey!" we yelled, running after him.
Great! At this rate we'll never get home!
