The Encounter

~ Thoughts are italics.

SO MY FRIEND Sydney_Glover GAVE ME AN AMAZING IDEA FOR THIS STORY SO SOME THINGS MIGHT CHANGE! But anyways that last chapter kinda had me in tears. Imagine a nine year old going through that abuse, everyday, for five years. That's heartbreaking and sad. *gathers all orphans* I WILL LOVE YOU!~

Today was the day, the day I'd escape. I packed my bag, it was a small one since I had very little things. I opened the window and had a flashback.

It was me jumping from the window when my mum was killed. The moment I jumped I snapped out of my flashback and death gripped the windowsill.

It's not that far down, but it scared me. I wanted to make a easy escape but I'm afraid I'll slip and land wrong. Slinging my legs over onto the windowsill, I grabbed my bag, and jumped.

The way I landed was pretty cool, it made me feel like a spy or something! I dashed off in a random direction not knowing what to do with my life anymore. So I ran for the sewers.

I ran through the putrid tunnels and nearly ran into a wall. I slowed down to a walking pace and kept going.

My eyes started drooping, either from the fumes or exhaustion. I picked up my pace until I reached a spot that wasn't so smelly. You are sleeping in a sewer. Yuck!

I laid down and used my bag as a pillow. Surprisingly it was kinda warm down here. I curled up and drifted off...

A Special Person's POV

I walked through the sewer tunnels looking for the remaining ingredient. All I needed was a bottle of soap, which apparently is easy to find down here. It's crazy what people flush.

I picked up my pace and kept looking until I nearly tripped over a sleeping girl. Her form was slightly shivering and she had the looks of a fighter. A bag was stuck under her head, possibly a runaway?

I know Master Splinter said to stay hidden, so no one knows who we are... But she looked perfect and seemed like a good addition to us. I picked her and the bag up gently, not wanting to wake her. Slowly but surely I got back to the base.

I didn't know what to do with her so I laid her on the couch. She stirred a little bit then started to lightly snore. It was kinda cut- wait what am I saying!?

I can't like a girl I don't even know! She's a random girl I found out in the sewers. Though she does look vaguely familiar. Distant memories I don't think I want to dig into.

I paced the room, wandering what to do, until Mikey came in.

"Woah dude, who's she?" He asked.

I stopped and thought a second. Should I tell him the truth or not?

"I found her outside of here, just a few tunnels away. She was shivering and looked like a good addition." I said proudly.

"Bro, do you know how much trouble you'll be in? We're supposed to keep on the down low." He retorted.

Mikey shuffled over to the fridge and grabbed some pizza from inside.

"Mmmmhmm..." He hummed in approval.

What am I going to do?
