Pink Visit of a Pirating Friend
Raph is seen putting on his gear and making sure his sais are sharp and ready for any danger he might come across, but he is also hopes nothing bad happens today because it's just going to be him and Zarya going at the Undercity to meet up with Casey to hang out.
"Well, I'm off." Raph said as he leaves his room.
"Yo, Raph!" Mikey called out while running up to the turtle in red.
"What do you want now, Mikey? Me and Zarya have plans today." Raph was annoyed of this little guy, but he is willing to hear him out.
"Oh, I was just wondering if you want to play video games with us and watch the new episode of Space Heroes where one of the characters is about to meet his old childhood friend, but there is a hint that the childhood friend might've gotten himself into something really bad." Mikey said.
"Yeah… No." Raph immediately turned down the offer and walks away.
"Alright, but just know that we're gonna beat your high score!" Mikey smirked.
Raph went into the living room of the hideout where he meets up with his adopted sister who has a slightly annoyed face on her.
"The girls tried to invite you into something stupid too?" Raph asked.
"Yep." Zarya answered.
"Man, those guys would want to do anything together." Raph rolled his eyes.
"Tell me about it. I love hanging out with them and all, but there are times when I need a break from them and just enjoy myself for a while." Zarya stated.
"And there's no better way to let ourselves hang than being in Undercity with Casey." Raph smiled.
"So, are you finally going to make your move on him today or what?" Raph asked.
"Move? What move? I don't know what you're talking about." Zarya denied of whatever Raph is talking about even though she may already know that.
"Come on, we all know you've been crushing on Casey for a long time since we came to the Undercity years ago." Raph pointed out.
"Not true! And even if it was, I'll go at my own pace." Zarya proclaimed.
"Sure, whatever you say." Raph chuckled as they leave through the door.
(Undercity)
Raph and Zarya just got themselves some Snorg Balls and met up with Casey who roll his way to them.
"Hey guys, glad you could make it!" Casey smiled as he high-fives them.
"Wouldn't miss hanging out with our favorite hockey man in the world. Just wanted to make sure the place is still running even when we're gone." Zarya said, though her cheeks blush a little.
"I'll admit, the place hasn't been the same since you started living with those other guys." Casey said.
"Something just came up that I couldn't ignore, sorry if I made you feel unwanted." Zarya apologized.
"Don't worry, if it's something really important then I get it. Just having you here tells me that you haven't forgotten Undercity." Casey smiled, slightly taking her hand.
"Wow, I'm starting to feel like I just became a third wheel." Raph teased with a grin.
Zarya and Casey look at Raph and then down at their hands making slight contact with each other causing them to realize this, their faces blush and pulls away from each other.
"D-Dude! I'm glad to see you too! No one can bring out the pain like Raph the Red Stripe!" Casey holds Raph in a lock to nudge his fist on Raph's head.
"And I thought I told you that name is not gonna fly!" Raph chuckled and pushes Casey off, the two start having a little fist fight playfully.
Zarya chuckles with Choko who is sitting on her shoulder enjoying the moment she is having with her brother and best friend/crush, this is the kind of thing she could never throw away even when she became a Mysticon.
But her happy thoughts were interrupted when someone in a hood bump into Zarya's shoulder causing Choko to fall from her shoulder, Raph and Casey saw this.
"Hey! How 'bout an apology?" Zary asked, thinking this girl doesn't respect Foz.
"I'm sorry you're so clumsy." The hooded girl apologized mockingly.
"Oh, you must be new around here because we three together are a big deal here in the Undercity." Casey stated as he pulls out his hockey stick from his back.
"So, unless you want your next stop to be at a hospital, you'll apologize." Raph said twirling his sais.
"Oh, I'm so scared." The hooded girl said sarcastically.
"Goongala!" Casey shouted as he and Raph charges at the hooded girl, but she avoid their strikes and caught them in her pink whip wrapping around them then pulls to make them bump into each other.
Zarya runs in to get the hooded girl only that she jumps back and whip her foot to make her fall, she was about to make a run for it but was suddenly struck by Casey's hockey stick then the cape of the hood is pinned to the ground by Raph's sai.
Seeing her trap now, Zarya makes a strong jump for a flying kick to the face to knock the hooded girl down.
"Down here, we rule the streets. That's how a big deal we are." Zarya grabbed the hood to remove it.
"Whatevesies, Zar!" The girl said with a smile.
Both Zarya and Raph gasps when they saw the face of the cocky girl as they know who she is from their past.
"Kitty?" They said while Casey is looking confused on what is going on right now.
"No way, Kitty Boon! I can't believe you're actually in Dark City!" Raph was surprised.
"You better believe I am, red dude." Kitty giggled, using the nickname she likes to call him back in the days.
"Oh, still going with that name." Raph rolled his eyes, never liking that name.
"Wait, Kitty Boon?" Casey felt like he heard that name before until it clicks in his head.
"Raph, isn't she that girl you and Zarya told me about when you were forced to be pirates and taken away by your families with other kids?" Casey asked, wanting to be sure.
"Yep, Kitty here was also one of the victims of the scumbag who destroyed our former homes and our parents." Raph nodded as Zarya helped her up.
"I hope you mentioned some good things about me to this dashing-looking man." Kitty grinned as she walks over to Casey.
"Well, there was this mention about you being able to plan the downfall of the captain who took you." Casey chuckled, blushing a little.
"Oh stop, all I did was pointed out how to get the old bird off our backs, but I am a girl of action if you're interested." Kitty said with a finger on Casey's chest.
Casey chuckles from how this girl is being cute and awesome this girl is with just her words that is making his heart race a little. Zarya was not liking how her old childhood friend was making a move on her guy, not that he is his guy yet or whatever.
"Casey had already seen plenty of action from one girl and that is me, right?" Zarya hugged his arm with a slightly angry grin.
"What's wrong, having trouble sharing a guy?" Kitty chuckled as she leans on Casey.
"Looks like Casey Jones is getting the attention from the girls like he wanted." Raph teased.
"Not helping, dude." Casey muttered.
"Hey, how about I get us drinks and you three can tell me your times together." Casey suggested while getting away from the two girls.
"I have to admit. He's cute." Kitty commented.
"Yeah, he is." Zarya smiled.
"So, Kitty, if you're here then that means your crew is in the city as well." Raph figured that out.
"Of course, what kind of captain would I be if I sail the skies by myself." Kitty answered.
Casey soon came back with the drinks, and they walk together as the three childhood friends told him the story of the last time, they saw the pirate captain.
"Remember how mad 'ol Cap'n Kaos got when we dumped him on that island?" Kitty asked.
"How mad was he?" Casey asked.
"Oh, he was like "By the Seven Skies, ye'll pay for this, ya scurvy dogs!" and all that angry pirate stuff." Raph said with imitating the pirate captain of their past.
"Wow Raph, you actually sounded just like him with the anger." Kitty was impressed.
"Well, he got what he deserved." Zarya said.
"And we got his ship," Kitty added.
"It's still amazing that you two used to be sky pirates. I bet you got to see lots of places in the sky, and maybe the sea because pirates originally started out as sea sailors." Casey said.
"Those days were cool; I was even the heaviest hitter of the whole crew." Raph smirked.
"Yeah, but me and Zarya were the best together." Kitty bragged a little.
"Don't you two ever miss being a sky pirate?" Kitty asked the adopted siblings.
"Yeah, I miss it sometimes. But this is my home now." Zarya stated with the Undercity as her home.
"I always thought Raph was more groundling than you could." Kitty commented.
"Oh, I'm sorry if our fair Undercity isn't to your liking." Casey smiled sarcastically.
"Oh no, it's cool and all. It just the three of us used to rule the skies together, we were like the whole package deal." Kitty explained.
"And now, we rule down here with Casey. We got everything we need. Free food. Good friends." Zarya said and waves hello to some girls running by.
"And the constant roof over our heads 24/7." Raph gestured towards up with top part.
"Yeah, a life of luxury." Kitty giggled.
"Oh, speaking of Luxury, Leo and Arkayna just got some guards and repairmen putting in the new pipes for the watering system. We'll be able to have fresh drinking water very soon, but it's only two streets for now." Casey informed.
"Wow, nice to know the royals came through with their words." Zarya smiled.
"Though I doubt it was easy to convince that twerp king." Raph groaned a bit, knowing how much of a pain Gawayne can be.
"Hold on, hold on, are you three saying that your buddy-buddies with the royals of Drake City?" Kitty asked in shock.
"Oh yeah, we became more famous around these parts while you were having your head in the clouds." Raph crossed his arms.
"Oh my goblins, you guys just became more amazing than I thought!" Kitty was amazed.
"You're gonna have a great time with us around." Casey grinned.
"But first, I'm about to show you guys that I have the stronger brain to handle the cold drinks." Casey grinned while holding his icy drink.
"Oh, you are so on, Casey Jones!" Raph accepted that as a challenge.
"This should be fun." Kitty smiled.
"One… Two… Three!" Casey counted down and all four friends drank their icy drinks together at the same time and drank them fast to see which one of them would finish first.
But a quick moment later, they all stop slurping with their eyes widen and the sudden extreme sensation of cold zapping within their heads gives them one thing that happens in moments like this.
"Brain freezes?!" Casey and Raph screamed at the same time as the girls are also feeling it, though Zarya seems to be powering through.
"Come on, let's go!" Zarya said as she pushes them along.
"Icicles jabbing brain!" Kitty exclaimed.
"Why do I keep doing this with you guys?" Raph asked.
(With Leo and Others)
The girls are riding their griffons with their turtle brothers sitting right behind them over the city for a patrol around Drake City because of some bandits in the sky.
"Keep your eyes peeled for sky pirates. There's been three raids this week already." Emerald informed.
"Worried they're gonna steal your twenty pairs of wool socks?" Arkayna asked with a chuckle.
"Which I need to point out was unnecessary to waste some of your money on." Donnie pointed out.
"There was a sale!" Emerald said.
"At least you don't have to worry about getting dragged into sales, right, Topaz?" Donnie petted Topaz who nods.
"Shiver me timbers!" Piper gasped.
"Sky pirate straight ahead! And it's parked at the royal castle!" Mikey alerted as he pointed at the flying pirate ship.
"A pirate raid? On OUR balcony?" Arkayna was angered by this.
"Let's go what they're doing." Leo said as they flew over to the balcony.
When they got down on the balcony, they see the sky pirates are little younger than they expected as they are about their age and wearing some pink clothing for some reason, and they are having a party on the royal balcony such as having drinks, and one pirate jumps from the couch and into the water for a cannonball.
"Excuse me, pirates! The prince and princess of Dark City would like to know your business of being here." Leo called out to the pink pirates, but none of them have noticed him yet.
"Whoo!" Malvaron shouted while dancing with one female pirate.
"What are you doing here?" Arkayna asked Malvaron and felt a tiny bit jealous that he was dancing with a girl.
"Who? Me? I got a glyph there was a mega-party on your balcony." Malvaron answered.
"Who send the glyph?" Leo asked.
"Heads up, ya scurvy foz!" Zarya shouted.
Suddenly one of the cannons fired at the group though it was not a real cannonball as this one was more fuzzy, it hits Leo and that ball turns out to be Choko who pointed towards Zarya Raph and Casey dancing together with a girl who may be the leader of this pirate group to Leo.
"Zarya and Raph?" Arkayna was surprised to see them hanging out with pirates.
"And Casey is here too." Donnie added.
"Doesn't that hurt their necks, or heads, or everything?" Emerald asked, concern for her friends throwing their heads up and down like that.
"Not unless you know the proper way to do that without hurting yourself." Donnie said.
"This is awesome!" April shouted with excitement as she and Proxima are being carried together by some pirates over their heads before setting them down to the others.
"You guys are here too?" Mikey asked in surprise.
"I noticed that Proxima was overworking herself, so I thought I bring her to the party here." April explained.
"Of course, she forgot to check that it was being hosted by sky pirates on balcony of the royal family and I was about to take my leave… But one of the pirates said eyes looked pretty and decided to stay. Just to make sure they don't trash the place." Proxima blushed a bit.
"Hey guys, glad you could make it." Raph waved hello as the four walked up to them.
"Hey Piper, doesn't that girl remind you of anyone?" Mikey asked.
"Really? What makes you say that?" Piper asked back.
"Gang, meet Kitty Boon, Captain of the Pink Skulls. Me and Raph were sky pirates back in the good old "bad" days." Zarya introduced her to the gang who are very surprised to learn that she used to be a sky pirate.
"Wait a minute, as in THE Kitty Boon who was known to the most pink and adventuring pirates in the seven skies?" Mikey asked gasp.
"The Kitty Boon who fought off nannies and savage three-headed dogs to get her hands on a giant birthday cake for Raph and Zarya!" Piper smiled widely with excitement.
"And got Raph sign up to win a tournament then helping Zarya with her arrow shooting when her right arm was broke!" Mikey smiled widely as well.
"Whoa, have you two been telling stories of our adventures together to these two?" Kitty asked.
"Mikey wouldn't stop bugging us to tell them a bedtime story when they were younger, so we told them about our times as sky pirates without leaving any detail behind." Raph explained with a smile.
"Hey, how come you're not all fluffy and have those cute little cat ears?" Piper asked as she looks up at Kitty's head.
"And where's your blue lightning skull head guitar that shoots lightning bolts?" Mikey asked, looking at back.
"Raph?" Kitty looked at Raph, knowing this was his doing.
"Well,… I may have exaggerated that you were a were-cat in the stories." Raph confessed with a nervous chuckle.
