Chapter 3: Big News
Back at Aprils, the turtles were looking at a very stressed out Casey. His eyes were very bloodshot, his skin was very pale and his body was very tense. A tapping of a walking cane could be heard behind the turtles. A warm authoritative voice spoke. "Boys let me through so that I may speak to Mr. Jones." The turtles separated to reveal a large rat.
The Rat looked a bit shocked to see the state Casey was in. He said, "Mr. Jones, you wished to speak with us? I heard it was of the utmost importance that we came here quickly." Casey nodded but never broke his gaze with the floor. He let out a heavy breath before telling the rat, "Yes, it is important Master Splinter."
Master Splinter walked into the Living Room with April and Casey and sat down in a large brown recliner. The turtles followed their sensei and slumped down on a couch.
"There's gonna be some new people coming here soon." Casey began but he was interrupted by a gasp. "April's pregnant!" Casey looked at April then at the Purple banded turtle. "No Donnie April's not pregnant. Just let me finish what I was saying" Casey said letting out a sigh of relief, 'I'd rather be a legal guardian than a father.' He thought.
Casey looked back at April who gave him a warm smile. He returned a small one back at her then turned to face the turtles and Master Splinter. He felt nervous and his throat felt dry but he had to tell them so he cleared his throat and began to speak "Those people are my three nieces from Ohio. I would have had April call you guys if the gurls were just commin' in for a quick visit but…." Casey stopped unsure of what to say.
The turtles and their rat master looked very confused. The red banded turtle spoke up. He had a rough Brooklyn accent. "But wat you bonehead? Spit it out."
"Alright Raph, You see my older brother and his wife died in a car crash. My pops and little sister called me to see if I would take care of the Gurls," Casey paused, took in a deep breath the continued. "My little sister said she didn't have enough money to feed three more mouths and my pops just barely has enough money to feed himself. It was either I take them in, or dump them in an orphanage somewhere. So I decided I was gonna take care of them." Casey paused again struggling to finish.
April looked at her boyfriend and spoke up. "Because we moved in together and our Apartment is big enough to fit four giant turtles and a rat, Casey asked me if his nieces could come and stay with us. We talked about it and last week I went with Casey to finish out the adoption papers… So now the girls are his."
Casey smiled at April then looked over to a blue banded turtle that had an all business expression on his face. He said "I know what you're gonna say Leo. My pops told me all about the girls and they don't have a criminal record. So they aren't a threat to your family."
Mater Splinter looked at his eldest son and gave a look of understanding. He said, "Mr. Jones you understand the threat against my family, but if you say those girls are harmless then I will trust your judgment."
Casey bowed "Thank you Master Splinter." The old rat smiled and asked "When are we going to meet your nieces?" Casey let out a nervous chuckle and replied "In a few hours."
The moving truck pulled up in front of a small shop called Second Time Around. 'This place looks pretty nice.' Sam thought as she got out of the truck. She looked around. 'Well we defiantly aren't in Ohio anymore.' She was right New York was a busy city it was called the city that never sleeps. There was constant traffic and she saw most people walking on the sidewalks. She looked back up towards the shop. In a second story window there was a young red haired, green eyed woman. She looked like she couldn't have been any older than about twenty-five. The woman looked like she could hardly contain her excitement.
Sam laughed and pointed to the window "Hey Syd, Madi, I found April." They looked up and giggled April opened the window and shouted down to them "Just leave your things in the Truck. Casey will get them later." The girls looked at each other then back at April. "Okay" They replied.
April closed the window and the smile on her face disappeared when she turned around and saw four teenage mutant ninja turtles and their mutated rat father. "You have to hide." She said frantic. There was a knock on the door April went to answer it she hesitated and turned back around to see the turtles and Master Splinter were gone.
She ran to the door and flung it open so hard she almost broke it off its hinges. There stood three very surprised girls. "Come in! Come in!" she said excitedly grabbing them and bringing them into a hug squeezing them tightly. "April! We can't breathe!" April pulled back and giggled "Sorry"
"Where are those gurls." A husky voice asked. April shook her head. "There in here Casey." The girls saw a very muscular man with unruly black hair come out from another room. "Uncle Casey?" Sam asked the man. Casey opened his arms "Come e're." The girls ran into Casey's arms and embraced him. When they let go Casey walked over to April and whispered in her ear, "I'm gonna bring the gurls into the living room go find the turtles and meet me in there." April laughed and pointed up to the ceiling "Found them"
Casey brought the girls into the living room and motioned for them to sit on the couch. When they were seated he began to speak "Gurls I got some friend and their really important to me and April. Well since you're gonna be ere a while I thought it would be best that you met them." The girls looked at each other confused then looked back at Casey and gave a nod that said okay.
April walked in, looked at Casey then at the girls. She added to Casey's comment "You see our friends are different from me, you, and Casey."
The girls had a really puzzled look on their face. Sydney asked her, "What are you talking about April?"
"Sydney, it would be better if I show you." April replied. The girls heard soft feet land on the floor, from the ceiling? Next they heard soft footsteps and the tapping of a walking cane coming towards the living room. What they saw next shocked them.
Well what's going to happen next? I guess you're going to have to read more to find out. Chapter 4 will be up soon Read and Review.
