Chapter 32
Collision
Sybil was blank-faced as she looked at the commercial break.
Mara was talking, but to Sybil, she could not hear what her sister was saying.
Mara finally screamed," SYBIL DELUGE, YOU ARE NOT GOING TO GO COMATOSE ON ME!!!!"
Sybil still wouldn't look at her sister. She was in shock.
Mara groaned, and softly sang," We have fallen
We have fallen again tonight
Where do we go from here
When they're tearing down our lives?
When all they want is
When all they want is
For us to live in fear
How long can we hold on?
Can we hold on?
Hold on!
Sybil seemed to stir from her shock and murmured the chorus,"
There's something deep inside
That keeps my faith alive
When all you can do
Is hide from the fear
That's deep inside of you
Something, something, something
Something, something, something
To hold me close when I don't know
There's something deep inside
That keeps my faith alive
Mara smiled briefly as she took her sister by the shoulders and implored,"
We are healing
But it's killing us inside
Can we take a chance?
When faith and fear collide
We can make it
Step out and take it
We can't live feeling so numb
How long can we hold on?
Can we hold on?
Hold on
Together, the two sisters, as unlike in appearance as a fish from a bird, allowed their voices to blend, as they sang out,"
There's something deep inside
That keeps my faith alive
When all you can do
Is hide from the fear,
That's deep inside of you
Something, something, something
Something, something, something
To hold me close when I don't know
There's something deep inside
That keeps my faith alive
Sybil took a shaky breath and demanded," Mara, what happened?"
Mara then explained the story quickly," Mom and Dad finally called the police. They didn't say, at first, that you weren't human. But then, as they began to proclaim the date of your disappearance, your name, your job, well, then this guy came out of nowhere and told us that there had been a sighting of you. At first, they didn't believe him, but then, he knew too much… and yet he didn't know enough."
Mara growled slightly as she added," I didn't trust the man. He was too cool, had all the right info and all the wrong answers, if you know what I mean. I didn't like him."
"Mara… Bishop was the one who kidnapped me in the first place!" Sybil sobbed.
Mara groaned," Well, that's just fan-f'in-tastic!"
Sybil nodded grimly as she asked," So, what did they tell you?"
Mara had so many more questions for his sister but hurriedly went on," Bishop told our parents that he'd help us find you… which is when I lost it. I told him off, upon which our parents sent me away to cool off."
Sybil groaned slightly," I don't believe this!"
"Believe it. As far as I know, they're just looking for you now. I don't know why. I don't know how. And I wish for the life of me I knew what the hell this Bishop guy was planning! What's in it for that slime ball?! What is his purpose?!"
Sybil frowned as she thought back to her capture.
Mara growled," Now, sister, talk. What happened?"
Sybil sighed," Okay, listen. When I went out to the rooftop, you know, to cool off, that's when I was nabbed, so to speak. I'm not sure how they snuck up on me, but they did. Sheesh… anyways, I was put in this cage with NO privacy, and while they did allow me stuff, like a toilet and a bed, it was so embarrassing cause I was under surveillance the whole time."
She paused, thinking back carefully," I asked questions, but no one talked to me. I do remember the word 'Eve', being used a number of times. But I couldn't be sure if they were talking about me or not."
Mara listened enraptured, as Sybil told the story of her rescue.
And when Sybil came to the part when Mars had burst into her prison and set her free like a caged bird, Mara gave an uncharacteristic squeal and asked, "SERIOUSLY?! Omigosh!"
Sybil blushed as she remembered the Sea-Turtle and the fire-eaten look on his face…
"Well, we got out, along with eight other mutant turtles, like us."
Here, Mara stood up and ran a hand through her short brown hair," Okay, this is too weird… it's, it's"
"Impossible. I know." Sybil grinned wryly as she looked into her sister's eyes," So now… what do I do?"
Mara frowned as she thought about it. Then, she looked at her sister's face," I'll call mom and dad and tell them that you're okay, and to get the hell away from Bishop."
Sybil nodded as Mara went to get the phone.

"Uh, dudes?"
Mikey was staring at the TV… again…
They all stared.
"Oh shell…" Daphne whispered.
Nerissa blurted," What are they thinking?!"
Leonardo frowned, his eyes widening as he spotted an all-too familiar face in the background.
"Damn it…" the cool headed turtle muttered as he saw the brief, smug expression on the agent's face," What do we do now?"
Andromeda growled softly as she, too, spotted Bishop.
Horatio moaned," Oh gods… those poor, misguided fools…"
Eos squeaked," Sybil went back home! We should go and bring her here before someone spots her and decides to turn her in!!!"
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Mikey went and answered it.
He blanched as he looked up and responded," Uh, dudes? We're too late."
Yep they're in trouble... again...
Daphne: The Coffee did it.
