Chapter 6: The Next Day
L's pov
During the night I did fall asleep for a few hours. It was about 5-6 in the morning when I awoke, my back still hurt but it was a bit better. I climbed out of bed and went up to the door. I decided to go out there so I opened the door and walked out. It was quiet except for the sounds of someone practicing and snores from some other room. I walk closer to the person practicing and found Leonardo, he looked at me and smiled. "Good morning how are you feeling?" Leo asked, I shrugged and winced... I should really stop shrugging with a back injury. "Why are you bent over like that? Doesn't that hurt your back?"
"No it doesn't hurt my back" I answered, I heard mumbling coming from the living room. I walk towards the living room and find Rose fast asleep, she's talking in her sleep. "Monkey" she says, I tilt my head to the side and ask "what?" "There's a monkey in the room... By Corinne's hobo" Rose mumbles, I hear Leo come over "what she say this time?" He asks "she was saying how there's a monkey in the room by some person named Corinne's hobo" I reply. "Well that's not the weirdest thing she has said" Leo answered "you guys really shouldn't be watching me sleep" Rose murmured, opening her eyes.
"Sorry Rose, you talked in your sleep again" Leo said naturally like this had happened before. "Oh really? What I say this time?" Yep this had happened multiple of times. "You said there was a monkey in the room... By Corinne's hobo" I replied.... Rose looked confused, then she started laughing. "Must be from my asl story Corinne and I made" Rose replied after she was done laughing. "Who is Corinne?" I ask "she's one of my few friends I have" Rose replied standing and walking towards the bathroom.
"Rose how many times have you talked in your sleep?" I ask when she comes back towards the living room. "5-6 times, usually it's about random things like an adventure I already had or now about school from 9th grade" Rose answered sitting down on the couch. "Ryuzaki do you know the man that attacked you? Or what he looks like?" Rose asks "I don't know the man, but I did see him, he's tall, I could barely see his face but I did notice he had brown or black or some dark hair color... When he spoke he sounded to be in his 30's, he was covered in shadows" I answered as I sat beside Rose.
"That's ok... hold still" Rose said as she touched my shoulder, I froze in place. When Rose took her hand back I asked "why did you do that?" "I was getting... Well I'll call it a sense... In a way if I feel the same presence near me or in yards of me, I'll know it" Rose explained. I nodded and heard Mickey yell "hey I'm making breakfast!" Rose groaned then "what?" I asked her "Mickey cooks only scramble eggs" Rose said standing up and stretching "the guys don't have candy or sweets.. You think you can deal with toast? I can put peanut butter on it" Rose said "yes, thank you" I said, Rose nodded and left towards the kitchen.

I head in to the kitchen and Mickey sees me getting bread and peanut butter out. "Hey what are you doing! I'm cooking"Mickey said annoyed "Ryuzaki only eats sweets, so he can force down toast with peanut butter" I explained "why?" Mickey asks "because sugar keeps him going, also black coffee" I explained "wait he only eats sugar, but he doesn't gain wait?" Mickey asked confused "yes Ryuzaki said if you use your brain you can work off the muscle or something" I explained.
"That's weird" Mickey said, I shrugged "hey that's how family is, I always want to make card decks go in order, and by a certain order" I said "I spent an hour working on 3 decks" I continued. "Wow" Mickey said getting back to working, by then the toast came up and I spread the peanut butter and brought it out on a plate to Ryuzaki. "Here" I said giving him the plate "thanks" Ryuzaki said disappointed "hey cheer up soon you will be back with Watari and eating your sugar like always" I said, trying to cheer him up, Ryuzaki looks up and gives me a small smile "yes, thank you."
Later during the day
I made Ryuzaki stay on the couch even though he didn't want to. I went up to go get the pizza Mickey had ordered, again. Each day was the same when I'm with them, I don't mind it much... Well if I was busy and Mickey wanted a comic book or something and I was in the middle of something I always get mad, but I go anyways. I left the lair and walked to the right man hole (forget what i said in chapter.. I think 4, i had said pot hole but I realized my mistake.)
I climb the latter that leads into an alley, I walked to the front of the building and entered the place. I had to wait 5 minutes, I paid them and grabbed the pizza and when I left the pizza place I felt something weird. 'Huh? Whats that feeling? I know I've felt it before' I thought, but I couldn't place it. I shrugged my shoulders and continued on my way, I got all the way to the door when I remembered! 'OMG! That feeling was that guy that attacked Ryuzaki!' I yelled at myself 'ok I gotta be calm so I don't freak Ryuzaki out' I thought as I calmed down, I went in and Mickey grabbed for the pizza and I gave it to him.
"Thank you!" Mickey screamed from the kitchen, he already had half a mouth full of a slice of pizza. I looked at Ryuzaki and walked over to him "do you want some pizza?" I asked, he shook his head "what would you like?" I asked "is there any sugar here?" Ryuzaki asked "not much, the guys don't really use it" I answered, then I continued "oh I have some chocolate bars that I bought for you" I said giving him the chocolate. Ryuzaki grabbed them and opened the first one and started eating it. "Take it easy, you don't have many left and I am not just going out to buy you candy" I said, Ryuzaki nodded and I left to eat some pizza, after taking the toppings off.
The day went by normal for the guys, all goofing around. Ryuzaki stayed on the couch and watched Mickey playing video games. I went with Donny to help him if I could. Ralph punched his punching bag, Leo was also watching Mickey play, and Master Splinter was in his room for the rest of the day.
