They almost felt like they were some sort of celebrity or billionaires just like the ones we talk about in the newspapers or on TV. It was the first time they had access to this type of privilege.They were more in their element when it came to fighting, being constantly belittled, or having access to the bare necessities such as a bed to sleep in and food. Draxum had only been giving them access to his gym or providing them with proper care for a few months. That's why everything seemed so impressive, so perfect...too perfect for Leo's taste. He saw how money and materialism transformed people into something hateful, selfish and even violent.... he understood it when he saw how Draxum had changed....

Mikey, on the other hand, couldn't stand still, he wanted to see everything and above all to touch everything, from the simple passenger seat to the pilot's controls. Asking a thousand and one more stupid questions than each other, questions to which he often received an answer from their pink partner.

-What's the point of having velor seats? do you always move around in this machine? is he going fast? what is this button for? ....

He wouldn't stop and the other who tried to answer as best he could didn't help matters. So much that it was Raph who raised his voice to put the little turtle in his place.

- Mikey shut up! you are going to give us a headache with all the words that come out of your mouth....

the little green head sighed, a little annoyed and having obtained only half an answer to his shower of questions, he went to sit at a window.

- You're not cool...I'm just curious, it's nothing new....

One detail was a little strange for Donnie , they were supposed to help each other's team but they couldn't even communicate properly cause of this small detail that would definitely create some hard situation to handle. He sat down in front of this pink guard that for some reasons intrigued him.

- Can I ask you something? heh of course I can why do I even bother to demand first... 

The pinkish shrugged, not really reactive to the small reflections of the purple turtle, and being now prepared as it should be thanks to the flow of questions from little Mikey.

- Your boss Big Mama for some reason insisted on knowing our names but .... you never gave us yours.... Like this isn't even a question of curiosity or just to be fair.... if we're going to be partners we need to know your names to properly communicate with each other.

Leo nodded slightly, he too was made this reflection. Raphael and Mikey seemed equally interested in these elements, they had completely forgotten. The four guards or now their new temporary teammates looked at each other, under their helmets a slight tension settled on their faces. It was their leader who spoke, preferring to be frank and not make mistakes when it came to the answer to be given.

- We won't give you our names... but you can call me Sea, the small one in yellow is Vi, the big one in white is Oli and the last one with pink patterns is Z!  happy? can we go now?

Donatello chuckled a little, he thought it was so childish to hide behind such ridiculous nicknames, his laughter was slightly contagious since Mikey and even Raph both chuckled lightly. A reaction that put Sea in a much less cooperative state, he went to start the automatic start of the device, walking with great strides to get as far away from this small group of morons that he must now consider as partners. ..

Leo began to discuss with these famous partners, being quite curious about their way of proceeding or even their fighting techniques. He quickly learned that just like them, all four of them had a weapon of choice that was unique to them. Vi wielded blades and sometimes Nekote claws, Oli had a useful chakram for ranged attacks, Z had a formidable kuzarigama both ranged and in close combat and finally Sea had a Yumi, more powerful than a regular  bow but harder to bend.
