O.k. here is the next chapter everyone! Hope you enjoy it. Just remember, I do not own TMNT, sadly. *Tear falls down cheek*
Lizzy's P.O.V.
"Video game lesson?" I hear Leo question looking at Mikey.
"Yah. Lizzy and I were talking earlier and it turns out that she doesn't know how to play," Mikey explains. Everyone looks at me with shocked expressions. I just blush out of embarrassment.
"Okay… then we'll let you get to it," Leo said. Then, he walked off to do whatever, and everyone else did too. Mikey ran over to the game station and set everything up, popping a game in, and then ran back over holding two controllers', giving one to me.
"Okay, first, the game system we are playing with is called an x-box 360," Mikey said, trying to sound like a drill sergeant. I just laugh and replied, "Yes, sir!"
"Good. Second, the game we are playing is called Mario Kart," he told me. He then continued to show me what each button does. After 20 minutes, he begins to game. Mikey begins to pick his character, by the name of Mario. Then I pick out Princess Peach. Mikey continues to set everything up. Then the screen pops up. 3…2…1…Go, was all I saw. I press one of the buttons and she goes speeding right out ahead of everyone.
"That almost never happens," I hear Mikey say as I cross the finish line with two laps to go. I feel the corner of my mouth curl up, and soon I am smiling.
"This. Is. AWESOME!" I shout crossing the finish line again with one lap to go. I look at Mikey, who is amazed, until I see an evil smile grow on his face. I look back at the screen, only to see that Mikey had shot what looked like a turtle shell at me. Quickly, I move her out of the way just in time so it doesn't hit me. I see the finish line coming up, so I use a boost I have been saving, and zoom across the finish line. Seeing this, I do a double fist pump in the air.
"I thought you said you never played?" He asked, still in awe that I won.
"I haven't, but I guess I have a really great teacher," I said, implying to Mikey a good job. He looks over to me and smiles, so I smile back.
"Alright, but I'm goin' to win the next one," he said going through options and setting up the next game. We continue to have multiple rematches for the next two hours, until he finally sighs and stops in defeat, but I did not see the giant rat watching us from the hallway.
Splinter's P.O.V.
I was meditating in my room when I heard a bang and yelling. I figured it was just Raph and Mikey at it again. So I continue to sit there for the next hour. When I finally decided to go and tell the boys' it was time for their training, I walk into the hallway to see Michelangelo and Elizabeth sitting on the couch playing a game. I see what a good time they are having, but feeling there was something more than just friendship in their future. I watch then for a little while longer, before glancing at the clock. It was about 2:30 pm. I then decided to cancel the boys' training for the day and let them rest. I walk up to them when they end their game to say hello to our guest.
"Hello Elizabeth, I trust you slept well?" I ask her. She jumps a little, and then turns her head facing me.
"Yes I did Master Splinter, thank you," she replied sweetly. Then a realization comes to mind. I have not told her the story of how we became the way we are, and I see her wanting to ask me that very thing.
"Would you like to ask me a question?" I ask. She seems surprised at this and nods.
"Yes, well… I was just wondering, how did you all become what you are today?" I gave a faint laugh, and smile. I then begin to tell her the story of how we came to be. By the end of our tale, I see her smile.
"That is very interesting. Thank you Master Splinter," she says.
"You are welcome my child. I am glad to see you enjoyed it," I finish walking back to my room. I turn my head before walking down my hallway to see that they were now playing another game. Seeing them together made me happy. Then I continue to walk back to my room.
Raph's P.O.V.
When Mikey said that Lizzy had never played a videogame before, I was shocked. Really, if you think about it, it wasn't all that surprising. Growing up in an orphanage with a lot of kids, and limited toys, having a gaming system in the place was bound to cause fights. So I went to my bean bag chair and read one of my comic books. I would look up every once in a while to see her showing up Mikey. You could have never guessed that she had never played before.
Later, I saw Master Splinter walk over to Lizzy and talk to her. He soon left and she continued to play. I didn't know much about her, but the guys where right. She was pretty nice and she did make the room light up. I also noticed how pretty she actually was. Her eyes were so big and happy, plus that smile of hers.
I glance over to the clock and see that it was around 6. Soon it would be time to go out for patrol. I hear the sound of the game shutting off and normal TV popping back on, and then a few whispers from Mikey and Lizzy. 'I wonder what they are talking about… wait no I don't,' I think.
Looking up at them and see Lizzy standing up, using her crutches, and she grabs her bag. She begins to head toward the bathroom and is soon out of sight. Then it becomes quiet… too quiet. I quickly put down the comic and stand up. I look around and see Donnie, April, and Leo. Lizzy went to the bathroom, and Mikey is nowhere to be seen.
"Booyakasha!" I hear someone scream, and then I feel something wet hit the back of my head.
"Yah! Dr. Prankenstine wins again," Mikey shouted as I'm realizing that Mikey hit me in the back of my head with a water balloon.
"MIKEY! You're so going to get it now," I scream and begin to chase Mikey. This goes on for a minute or two until I finally catch him.
"HELP!" Mikey screams in terror. I just laugh holding him in a headlock.
"What he'd do now?" I hear someone ask. I look up and see Lizzy, who was now dressed in a pair of pajamas. The pants she wore were yellow with turtles on them, and her tank top was a plain green color. Her hair had been put up into two, high pigtails, letting her long, blonde, flowing hair drape on her shoulders. She began to look from us, too where I was sitting only moments ago. She notices the pieces of balloon left on the floor.
"Nice p.j.'s," I say smirking. Lizzy ignores me and sighs.
"Mikey, I said it was a bad idea to throw a water balloon at Raph, not a good one," she sighed, placing her head in her hand. 'So that is what they were talking about,' I think.
"Oh… sorry Raph," Mikey apologized, adding a laugh to the end. I glared at him, but let him go. He raced over to the couch and flipped through the channels. I get up and walk towards Lizzy. Reaching out, I grab her bag.
"Raph, it's okay. You don't have to do that," Lizzy tried to convince me. I just shrugged my shoulders and made my way over to the couch, setting her bag down beside it. She sighed and followed, sitting down next to Mikey. I head back to the bead bag chair. After about 20 minutes of them watching Teen Titans, Leo gets up.
"Guys time to patrol," Leo said getting up. The rest of us follow.
"Hey, could you guys drop me off at home. I have a tone of homework to do," April questioned.
"Sure," Donnie said.
"Cool. Well bye Lizzy, nice seeing you," April waved.
"Yah, nice seeing you too. Bye," Lizzy smiled waving. Then we all head out for our nightly patrol.
Leo's P.O.V.
We had just come home from the patrol around 10 o'clock. There wasn't much action tonight, so we were home earlier than usual. When we walk through the entrance, Mikey yells, "We're HOME!"
"Michelangelo, please be quiet," Splinter demanded. He is standing over by the couch, looking down with a smile. We all walk over by the couch, only to see a sleeping Lizzy, clutching an old, faded pink, teddy bear. It had yellow ribbons tied to its ears looked much loved.
"Awwwaaa, she looks so cute when she is sleeping," Mikey whispered. To tell the truth, he was right. She was lying on her side and her hair was now down from earlier, so is rested nicely on her side until it draped down her back. Her eyes looked relaxed and her lips were slightly curved upright, showing a faint smile. That's one thing Lizzy always did. Smile.
Smiling, I looked around at my brothers and see a smile on their faces, along with Master Splinter.
"Come my sons. Elizabeth has the right idea. We must all rest now, you have training in the morning," Master Slinter said in a hushed tone.
"Yes sensei," everyone chimed. Then we all headed to our rooms, except for Mikey. I look back to see Mikey whisper something to the sleeping Lizzy, and then lean in and kissed her head. He began to get up, so I quickly head to my bedroom and shut the door. I get into bed thinking, of how Mikey had kissed her. At first I was surprised, and then I thought that it was sweet. I soon drift off to sleep for training in the morning.
I hoped y'all enjoyed this chapter. I do not own Mario Kart or Teen Titans either. Well anyways, my spring break is coming up and I will not be able to post anything during this time because… wait for it… wait for it… on March 31 I going to… ITALY!*Double fist pumps in the air* Just for the heads up, but I will keep writing my ideas so I can post them when I get back. BYE!
