Finding Sheldon?

Editor not : Lotus has not edit this.

A week had passed by from Mikey's last nightmare. Mikey has had a few more nightmares but he has someone comfort him each time. The gang was still injured but had healed a bit. Leo was still couch-ridden though and the others still wouldn't let him try to do most things on his own. Mikey no longer needed bandages on his arms and hands but he still sometimes has hand twitches and shots of pain. Mikey wore gloves that look and were the same as the other ones he wore but they helped with issues he had with his hands and arms. Donnie has a new battle shell that helped him not feel as sore from his injuries. Raph just took painkillers for his pain and had medical stuff applied to his injured shell. The group also keeps an eye on Raph and makes sure Raph doesn't push himself and takes breaks. The gang was in the living room again, Raph was sitting on the one-seat couch, April, Splinter, and Mikey were sitting down on another couch together, Casey and Donnie were sitting down on the floor on cushions and Leo was laying down on a different couch from Raph and April. A table was in the middle of the living room and they all were around the table. Mikey moves his piece on the board. "Yesss 200 more dollars." said Mikey cheerfully as he takes 200 fake dollars from the board game. The board game they were playing was Monopoly. "Nice one Mikey but just be careful I own most of the plots and if you land on one well you know." said April. "I still don't get how this was actually a game you could play." said Casey puzzled. "Yeah but I'm sure I can win this. It is just you and me now." said Mikey cheerfully. Everyone else that was playing lost already and it was just Mikey and April now. "Yup, it is an actual board game. I'm more surprised that the versions of us used monopoly as a way to tactically plan an attack." said Donnie. "Yeah, wait so you are sure you guys don't bet on resources that you have?" asks Casey. "Ehhhh no we don't although that does sound like something we would do. Plus Leo loves this game." said Donnie calmly. "You guys got this, I believe in you, Mikey! No offense April but you did get me out of the game. Also, it's a good game you can't blame me for liking it." said Leo enthusiastically. "Thanks, Leo." said Mikey happily. "None taken, especially since you did give me your properties after I defeated you." said April as she rolls the dice. "True but I still think we should have played Trash." said Raph. "Trash?" asks Casey confused. "Yup. Oh um it's a name of a card game, not actual trash." said Raph. "Oh, okay, interesting." said Casey, understanding it a bit but mostly confused. Donnie sighs. "I'll explain it better than Raph. So trash is a card game where." Donnie then proceeds to explain how the card Game Trash works to Casey calmly as Donnie looks at Casey. Casey looks at Donnie and was just listening to what Donnie was saying but was confused sometimes." Ooh Ohh. Oh dear? Wait. Yessssss. Just missed it by one." said April as she moved her piece one place in front of Mikey little owned land on Monopoly. "Noooo ugh so close only missed by one." said Mikey. "Ha, and I get a card too. Now let us see. Oh, well that's convenient. Sorry Mikey, but you owe me 50 monopoly money." said April as she shows Mikey the card. "Awe, dang it. I'm gonna be down to 200 monopoly money soon..." said Mikey as he gave April his 50 monopoly money. April puts the card down and takes the 50 monopoly money. "Thank you." said April as she adds it to her monopoly money pile." You got this Mikey. All she gotta do is land on a space that belongs to you and you land on a space that doesn't belong to her and then the game could be anyone's game." said Leo enthusiastically. "True, but the area Mikey is at is all my plots, so it takes a lucky roll to just miss my plots where his piece is at." said April happily and confidently. "True but hey if anyone can do it it's Mikey. He's great at board games." said Raph confidently. "Thanks, Leo and Raph and I got this." said Mikey confidently but slightly worried. Mikey picks up the dice and rolls the dice. Mikey, unfortunately, didn't have luck on his side and landed on April's plot. "Aww dang it how much do I gotta give you April." said Mikey slightly disappointed as he moves his piece to the spot. "Seems like 250." said April as she looked at her card. "Awe, I lost. Welp, good game April." said Mikey as he placed the rest of his money on the board. "Good game." said April cheerfully. "You were so close, Mikey was so close.... Anyways, wanna play another game?" asked Leo. "Do we even have any other games we can play together?" asks Raph. "Uhh we do have cards but I don't think we have all of the cards. Plus the other board games we have we 1 already played them and 2 I'm pretty sure half of us can't even play video games here. Unless you want to play that old Lou Jitsu videogame that Mikey got from the vintage store." said Donnie calmly. "Yeeeeaaahhhh no. There gotta be something we can do." said Leo as he ponders. The gang then tries to think of what they could do. "We could try that baking together idea?" suggest Mikey. "Uh Mikey you remember how well that went last time?" asks Raph slightly concerned. Mikey has a flashback to that time. "I don't see this going well Angelo." said Donnie as he sat down on a chair in the kitchen. "Oh come on Don it's gonna go great!" said Mikey enthusiastically. "You sure? I know a bit of cooking but Casey hasn't cooked in a kitchen before and well we don't have all the ingredients." said April reading the recipe in the cookbook at the table. Casey was next to April reading the paper recipe that was the same. They wrote the recipe out on paper as well to let everyone read it. "She does have a point. I haven't been in a kitchen since well all my life really. You guys had to explain to me what a stove and microwave were." said Casey calmly. Raph was standing by the door looking at the recipe as Leo was also sitting down in the kitchen. "True, although I'm still in shock about how your version of Donnie didn't figure out a way to make pizza with one of his machines." said Leo. "I'm pretty sure my mom did say he did try once but it didn't come out great and it technically wasn't a pizza apparently." said Casey calmly. "Alrighty and well as much as we all have our doubts on how well this recipe is going to go I'm sure it turns out great." said Mikey enthusiastically. "Uhh, sure bud. Plus your good at cooking so how hard can it be." said Raph as he looks at Mikey with a smile. 20 minutes later. "No Leo put the lid on!" shouted Mikey as Leo and Mikey were at the blender and Leo just turned it on. "I'm sorry wa-" said Leo as Leo gets blasted in the face with blender juice. The blender juice also spills onto the batter Donnie and Casey were making. "Hey, Wa- why we just barely got it right." said Donnie slightly annoyed. Casey sighs. "Why does this have to be so difficult is this like the tenth try?" asks Casey looking at their now soup batter. "Uhhh Raph I don't think it's supposed to be bubbling this much." said April as she looks at a pot on the stove that was bubbling a lot to the point it was about to overflow."Eh um I'm sure it's fine." said Raph. The pot then sets on fire. "Ya oh." said Raph as the gang all looks at the fire. "Ok Raph just-" said Mikey calmly as he goes to try and put out the fire. "Don't worry Mikey I got this." said Raph as he goes to turn off the heat but proceeds to accidentally break the switch on high. The fire then spreads to the counter. The group then tried to put out the fire and after a few minutes, the entire kitchen was on fire. The flashback ends. "Yeahhhh but Donnie was able to put the fire out...." said Mikey a tiny bit sheepishly. "True although I'm pretty sure I rather not have my leg almost set on fire again sooo let's not do that for now." said Leo calmly. "Also I rather not try and figure out replacement stuff if the kitchen catches on fire....or meal plans for the next three weeks sooooo till you guys figure something out I'm going to go back to the old lair and look for Sheldon." said Donnie as he gets up from where he was sitting. "I'll go with you." said Raph as he also gets up. "I'm coming too." said Leo. "No your staying here and healing." said Raph calmly but a tiny bit authoritatively as he looks at Leo. "As I said earlier I'm fine. I'm doing a lot better than before so it should be fine." said Leo as he tries to get up. "You lay back down now Blue! You are not healed fully and you need to rest." said Splinter as he looks at Leo."I agree with dad Leo. If you keep getting up when you are not fully better then it just takes longer to heal." said Mikey worriedly. "Ugh fine ill stay but hey if you guys find any of my action figures that I can't find here can you bring them over?" asks Leo as he stops trying to get up and lays back down. "Sure. Just get your rest." said Raph as he starts to head off."Is there anything else you guys may have left behind?" asks Donnie."Hmm, there was this one box of books that my father used to collect. The last time I saw it was at the bottom of the bookshelf so if you find it can you grab it for me purple?" asks Splinter calmly. "Uh sure. Anyways bye and don't get up Leo." said Donnie as he goes off following Raph. "You two Donnie? Ok fine I won't get up." said Leo with a sigh. "You know you don't need to come with me Raph. I'll be fine on my own." said Donnie calmly as he caught up to Raph. "Yeah I know but with the Krang vines still around in the city, it's just better to not go alone. Plus there are a few things I left behind so both of us should go." said Raph. "I- Fair, fine, we should take the turtle tank it is faster to get there plus if we get the stuff it will be easier to bring back." said Donnie "Sounds good, are we taking the abandon railroad track?" asks Raph calmly. "We should since it's the day plus it should be safe again to travel through." said Donnie. "Right well grab the stuff your taking and we can head out." said Raph. "Alright see you in a few minutes." said Donnie as Donnie and Raph headed to their rooms to get stuff. "Welp I got nothing. Do you guys have any ideas for a game we could play?" asks Mikey looking at April, Leo, Splinter, and Casey. "Hmmm. we could play the sweet or bleh game?" suggest Splinter. "Ugh dad no. As much as it's just trying candies We've done that a few times and all we have is the plain grape candies left. Although I don't have any ideas of any other games but please no more disgusting candy trying." said Leo with some complaint. "We could play catch we do have a softball." suggest April. "Uhh maybe although I don't think it will be too much fun since we would be passing it around in the living room and Leo can't get up off the couch." said Mikey. "Why don't we play Still Can?" suggest Casey. "Still can?" asks the group confused beside Casey. "Yeah... Do you guys not know what Still Can is?" asks Casey confused. "Uhhh nope never heard of it." said Leo. "Nope." said Mikey. "Hmmm never heard of it but sounds interesting." said Splinter. "No, but hey maybe it could be fun. What's the game if you don't mind sharing?" asks April curiously. "Well Still Can is a game where you have these cans that are placed on the floor, The cans have pieces of tape around them that are different colors. There are these levels and your goal is to get up to 15 levels before anyone else. The first level is just can stacking a pyramid, the second level is basically bowling, 3 is to land the ball in each can, and so on. You reset the cans each time you complete a level and you're competing with someone else with a different set of cans to get to level 15." explains Casey. "Huh, that sounds awesome, and interesting to play. Although I don't think we have enough cans." said Mikey enthusiastically. "We might we definitely should check." said Leo calmly. Raph and Donnie hop into the turtle tank. Donnie places a bag down by his seat and sits down in his seat. Donnie's bag was a dark green/blue color satchel. Donnie started to get the turtle tank ready. Raph sat in his chair and put an empty red/black backpack down by his seat. "So do you want to drive or am I driving?" asks Raph calmly as he looks at Donnie. "You can drive since I'll have to focus on opening and closing the abandon train station doors." said Donnie calmly. "Alright." said Raph as he gets ready to drive the turtle tank. Donnie opens the garage door and Raph starts to drive. Once out of the garage they were in the abandoned train tunnels. Raph drove down the abandoned train tunnels that were big enough for the turtle tank. The abandoned train tunnels were not in the best shape before the turtles and splinter came but they were a lot better now from Mikey and Donnie fixing them and making the abandoned train station so much better to travel through safely. Donnie opens up another door to the left tunnel of the abandoned train station. Raph drives down the left tunnel turning on his lights so they could see down the tunnel. "So you know Leo was totally cheating at monopoly right?" asks Donnie calmly. "Huh? Really? Nah I don't think Leo- Ok he would absolutely would do that but that would mean he still lost even while cheating. Ha." said Raph. "Yeah. Although no idea how he lost. He took 400 each time he went around instead of 200. I'm still surprised April managed to take Leo out in monopoly. You don't think April was cheating too?" ask Donnie curiously. "April cheat? Hmmm nah she wouldn't do that I don't think." said Raph calmly at first and then not too sure. "True that isn't her personality- hold up the door." said Donnie as he sees a door closed in front of them that was coming up. "Plus as much as she is uh what's the world you used a few days that started with am?" ask Raph as he slows down the turtle tank as they got closer to the door. "Ambitious." said Donnie as he opens the door in front of them as he closes the garage door and the left tunnel entryway door. "Yes, that word. As much as she is ambigis she is honest." said Raph as he gets the turtle tank to go back to normal driving as they go past the doorway. "Ambitious and agreed." said Donnie. "That's what I said Ambigis." said Raph calmly. "No, you are saying AM-big-is it's Am-bit-ious," said Donnie. "That's the same thing I just said." said Raph confused. "No, it's a completely different word....I sigh fine. But yeah Leo totally was cheating and still lost to April." said Donnie calmly. "Good to know. Wanna rub it in his face when we get back?" asks Raph calmly slightly smiling. "Oh definitely." said Donnie with a slight smile. "So how are you holding up?" asks Raph his smile disappearing from his face. "Holding up?" asks Donnie as his smile turned into confusion. "Yeah with everything that happened and not finding Sheldon for his long." asks Raph a bit cautiously but calmly. Donnie was quiet for a bit as he open a door to the right and closed the door that they went through earlier. "I open the door to the right since the left tunnel isn't fixed yet." said Donnie calmly. "K." said Raph calmly as he continues to drive and once he gets to the doorway he turns to the right and keeps driving down that tunnel. "Im doing ok... just still processing everything that happened... as well as just trying to you know fix my tech and help where I can." said Donnie monotonically hesitantly. "Yeah I know about all the tech stuff you've been doing, just know you're not alone in this and we are here if you do ever want to talk." said Raph sincerely. "I'll keep it in mind, anyways how about you? How are you holding up?" asks Donnie calmly. "Oh um I'm doing alright definitely sucks that you guys hid my weights though. By the way-" said Raph as he gets interrupted by Donnie. "I'm not telling you where dad hid your weights Raphael." said Donnie. "What I wasn't gonna even ask that..." said Raph not convincingly. "Really? then what were you going to ask?" asks Donnie curiously as he looks at Raph. "I uh- well you see- I- Uh- Ok to be honest I was going to ask that but come on Donnie. It's just me lifting my weights it isn't like I'm trying to leave the lair." said Raph. "True unlike someone else, but still not telling you, especially not after you tried to pick up the fridge and fell on your back and couldn't get up." said Donnie calmly. "Ok to be fair that wasn't completely my fault, plus we needed to move the refrigerator slightly." said Raph with a sigh. "Yes we did need to move it but we could have done that together, or we could have let me do my Science!! And then it would have moved without you having to be stuck on the floor for about an hour." said Donnie calmly and then excitedly when he said science and back to calm after he said science. "Donnie, don't use any science on the refrigerator, also that is true that we could have all moved it but you guys literary haven't let me pick up most things recently, Im not weak you know just because I got hurt I can still do things." said Raph slightly annoyed. "I'm not saying your weak Raph Im just-Door!" said Donnie calmly then shouts at the end a bit panicked as a door was closed in front of them that wasn't far away as he looks towards the front. Raph quickly and safely stops the car correctly. They then tap the door with a jerk and safely stop. "You ok Donnie?" asks Raph slightly startled as he hits back into his chair. Donnie hits the back of his seat. "Yeah....Um let's go back to talking about that stuff later- I think we should just focus on getting to our old home... and finding Sheldon." said Donnie as he calms down a bit. "Yeah- sounds like a plan." said Raph calming himself down. "Before we go let me check if the turtle tank is ok. It still isn't fully fixed but it's good enough to drive and take a few hits." said Donnie trying to get his breathing to go back to normal as he then opens the door in front of them and the door they went through earlier closes." Ok just be careful we don't know if any Krang vines have made it through these train tunnels." said Raph calming himself down a bit. "I'll be careful." said Donnie as he gets up from his seat and walks towards the door to get out of the turtle tank. Raph opens the door to the turtle tank to let Donnie out keeping an eye out for Donnie. Donnie hops out of the turtle tank reading his bow staff as he goes to look at the front of the turtle tank that tapped into the door of the tunnel. Raph just sighs. 'I should have paid more attention, Donnie and I could have been hurt and with our injuries from Krang not fully healed it could have been worse...plus Donnie has a soft shell as much as he does have a battle shell- I'm not sure if it would protect Donnie fully from a krang attack- Raph focus Donnie is out of the turtle tank looking to make sure we can still drive fine... which was totally your own fault but still focus, Donnie might need me.' thought Raph to himself as he grips the driving control a bit tighter. Donnie was now at the front of the turtle tank and was already checking to make sure it was ok with the hood up. 'Oh, thank goodness it's fine.' thought Donnie as he closes the hood. Donnie then gives Raph a thumbs-up and starts to walk back to the turtle tank's open door. Raph sighs in relief that the turtle tanks fine but his grip stays the same. Donnie hops back into the turtle tank putting his bow staff away. "We are fine to go now, and I didn't see any krang vines." said Donnie as he goes back to his seat. "Well, that's good. Hopefully, those vines don't find a way into these tunnels." said Raph as he closes the turtle tank door. "We can only hope." said Donnie with a sigh as he sits down. Raph started to drive again paying more attention now to driving than he was before. "Raph can we talk for a bit? I can set the turtle tank on auto drive, I managed to fix that a good while ago." said Donnie after a bit of staying quiet and them driving for a few minutes in silence. "Uh sure." said Raph as he looks at Donnie. Donnie put the turtle tank in auto drive and looks at Raph. "Do you- Do- Ugh- you know what I'm just gonna come out and say it. Do you think I l- lost- Sheldon again?" asks Donnie struggling a bit to ask the question as he looks at Raph. Raph blinks and stops driving the car and pays his full attention to Donnie. "I don't think so, Donnie. April and Dad did say they didn't have time to reach Sheldon when the Krang attacked the base but you did say you found footage of Sheldon leaving the lair the other route." said Raph calmly. "Well yeah but he doesn't have any communication features yet. I-I was barely able to save Sheldon last time from when Shredder almost k-killed h-him..... I had to make him a new body and transfer him to the new body before I could even finish it because if I didn't his data would have become corrupted..... And the new body wasn't the best and I was still fixing and repairing and he needs to charge many times a day and he wasn't back at the old lair the last time we checked, and April's house is practically gone, covered in krang vines! Also, Sheldon's own head when I came home after the Krang attack was completely destroyed and there is no way to get any memories Sheldon may have left behind or any data from Sheldon's old head to the new body Sheldon is in! Sheldon is also extremely fragile right now and can overheat so easily that I-Donnie starts to panic a bit as he has flashbacks of when shedder came to their old lair killed gram-gram, almost killed Sheldon, him seeing his family get hurt, the events of Krang from the escape pods, to Raph getting infected by krang, getting hit by the infected krang train and almost dying in the turtle tank with Mikey and so much more. "Don? Don, Donnie, Donatello. Hey, it's ok. Just breathe. Sheldon is going to be ok. Sheldon is a smart robot- kid. The krang is gone and as much as the vines are still here they don't seem to do anything. I'm right here ok. It's ok little brother everything's ok." said Raph as he got up and stayed by Donnie not hugging Donnie but just being near Donnie to let Donnie know he is there. Donnie tries to calm down but can't he can hear Raph and he knows the Krang is gone but he can't help but feel scared. Scared that the Krang might come back, Scared that Sheldon might be truly gone now. Donnie was shaking and was hugging himself but as Raph goes next to him Donnie hugs Raph still panicking but he just needed something to hug to try to calm down something to hold and give him some sort of comfort. Tears start to go down Donnie's face as he hugs Raph. Raph gently and carefully hugs Donnie. Ralphs sighs quietly as he tries to comfort Donnie. After 30 minutes the turtle tank stops in front of three closed doors. Donnie breathed out and was no longer shaking. "S-sorry... J-just been a-a lot." said Donnie a bit quietly as he stops hugging Raph and wipes his tears away. "It's alright. It has been a lot. You have been doing a lot too." said Raph empathizing as he stops Hugging Donnie and just looks at Donnie with concern. "I- Yeah, I just need to do something before I can just not- worry about anything and just get things done." said Donnie as his tears stopped running down his face. Donnie then starts to click buttons on the turtle tank to figure out where they were and what door to open. Raph just sighs. "Alright, but I'm holding you to it. Once you're done with all the things you need to do you're taking a break." said Raph as he heads back to his seat. "I've already taken a break Raph.... But you might be right..." said Donnie with a sigh. Raph sits down in his seat. "Bbblleehh, that did not feel right." said Donnie as he shakes the odd feeling away. "Saying I'm right?" asks Raph confused. "Yes." said Donnie, still feeling weird about it as he continues to try and figure out where they were. "Wa? What is that supposed to mean? I've been right before." said Raph confused, and a tiny bit offended. "I mean yeah but like feels odd to say your right about me overworking and pushing myself since that is what you and Leo do...often." said Donnie. "Huh? I don't overwork or push myself Donnie and even if I did it was to make sure you guys weren't getting weaker." said Raph, still slightly offended. "Ehhhhh I can easily disprove that plus when have we- ok never mind scratch that, but still you telling me I need a break when we been telling you to you know to take a break is ironic." said Donnie as he opens up the middle door. "Iron what now?" asks Raph, a bit confused. "Ironic and I don't feel like explaining it right now plus it will probably be easier for you to look it up. Oh also we are almost back to the old lair..." said Donnie as he just starts to prepare to see if he can find Sheldon as he pushes buttons. The buttons pull up a transparent blue screen in front of Donnie and Donnie continues to try and prepare to try and find Sheldon's energy signatures. "I-Uh-ok cool." said Raph, a bit confused at first but then not confused at the end. The turtle tank auto drive then continues to drive down the tunnel. Raph pulls out his phone and tries to search up the word Donnie used cause he wanted to make sure it wasn't anything offensive plus he had time. "It's spelled like Iron but add an Ic at the end of it if you are looking it up." said Donnie. Raph figures it out and just decides to text the group chat to see how everything is. 'Hi, how is everything going for you guys? Did you figure out a game to play?' texts Raph. 'We are totally fine, don't worry about it. How is looking for Sheldon and the stuff left behind going?' texts Leo. 'We haven't made it to the lair yet but we are almost there now. Are you sure everything is fine? You better not be up walking around Leo.' texts Donnie as he now was multitasking. 'Indubitably everything is completely fine.' texts Leo. "Leo just texted Indubitably he is lying isn't he?" asks Raph not looking up from his phone. "Oh definitely." said Donnie, still multitasking not looking at Raph. 'Leo you texted Indubitably what's wrong what happened.' texts Raph with a sigh and slight concern. "Oh actually before I forget again how is your eye doing? Do you need me to rebandage it later?" asks Donnie as he stops multitasking and looks at Raph. "It's doing ok, It sometimes gets blurry from time to time though." said Raph calmly as he looks over at Donnie. "Uhh yeah I'm going to rebandage your eye when we get home." said Donnie. "Alright. Oh question so Mikey said you were a spaceship earlier and I never got a clear answer from what he meant by that." said Raph slightly confused. "Ohhh right. Mikey did say he was going to mention that to you. So basically you know the Krang now destroyed ship?" asks Donnie calmly. "Yeah?" says Raph still slightly confused but now slightly concerned. "Ok so when Krang's ship was you know not destroyed and I needed to hack into the system of the ship's control panel, But there wasn't a control panel just some gross icky vines and I realized that the vines were the thing that controlled the ship. So to fly the ship back through the portal I got consumed by the vines and became one with the ship. Which was pretty interesting in itself but also extremely complicated at the same time, not only could I move the ship with my mind but I could control different vines inside the ship." said Donnie a bit grossed out when talking about the gross vines but esthetically as he talks about him becoming part of a spaceship. "Uhhhh cool?" said Raph confused. "It indeed was although extremely gross and Im never controlling a ship like that again unless I absolutely have to." said Donnie. Raph's phone buzzes 2 times. "Um ok?" said Raph, still confused about what Donnie was talking about but got the gist that Donnie did something to control the Krang ship. Raph looks at his phone and sees that he has 2 messages in the group chat. 'Yup everything is completely fine.' texted Leo. 'Blue is telling the truth everything is fine here you two just focus on what you're doing we are fine here.' texted splinter. 'K.' texted Raph. "Well Dad says they're fine." said Raph as he looks back up at Donnie. "Huh surprising since Leo texted Indubitably. Oh, we made it through, though it did take a bit longer than normal. Do you want to park it or should I?" asks Donnie as he stops looking at Raph and taps buttons again to continue to see if he can get any signatures from Shelldon." I can park it." said Raph as he puts away his phone. "Ok." said Donnie as he continues to push buttons. Raph turns off the auto drive and drives the turtle tank up next to a sewer pipe. Raph then parks the car next to the sewer pipe. Raph once parked stops driving and grabs his bag next to him. "Ready?" asks Raph as he gets up. "Uhh, just give me like five minutes." said Donnie. Raph opens the door to the turtle tank. "Alright well I'll be waiting outside the turtle tank." said Raph calmly as he starts to walk towards the now open turtle tank door. "Ok shouldn't take that long anyways." said Donnie as he continues to push buttons. Raph hops out of the turtle tank and looks around. The area around was a bit odd the tunnel they were in was an abandoned train station trolley but to the right side of the tunnel, the wall had collapsed that made a way into a sewer system. Raph checks to see if there were any Krang vines around not going into the sewer tunnels and not going too far from the turtle tank. Raph does not find any vines and sighs in relief. Raph goes back next to the turtle tank and Donnie hops out of the turtle tank with his bag. Donnie then clicks the button on the turtle tank closing the turtle tank door. "Find anything?" asks Donnie as he looks at Raph. "Thankfully no." said Raph as he stands beside Donnie as he looks at Donnie. "Well, that's good. We should go now though." said Donnie as he goes towards the broken sewer pipe. "Yeah, hopefully, we can find some stuff that was left behind and Sheldon." said Raph as he follows Donnie. "Yeah... But hey this time I brought my E.S.T. with me." said Donnie not enthusiastically at first but then enthusiastically when he was talking about E.S.T. Donnie then jumps down into the broken sewer pipe. "E.S.T?" asks Raph as he hops down into the broken sewer pipe as well. "Yup aka Energy Signature Tracker." said Donnie as he starts to walk down the pipe into the sewer system. "I'm assuming it's gonna help us find what we are looking for?" asks Raph as he follows Donnie. "Yup. It will mostly help with trying to help me find Sheldon. Since Shelldon's energy source is different than normal energy because his new body relies on regular energy and a bit of elastic energy." said Donnie as he took out what looked like an old mp3 player but it had this antenna at the top. The old mp3 player had this black and blue futuristic look to it and it didn't look old but looked re maid. "Ok well that's good, hopefully, we find something." said Raph as he continues to walk but he was now walking next to Donnie. "Yeah, hopefully, it does. I've done a few tests already but there are still a few things I got to fix. I'll try and fix it when I have time." said Donnie as he turns on the E.S.T.The mp3 player aka E.S.T screen turns on. The screen had many numbers of code show up throughout the screen before it switched to a light blue screen that looked like a radar. Donnie checks the E.S.T. to make sure it's working. After a few minutes of walking through the sewer system, they made it to the old lair. The old lair was still destroyed but there were now these man-maid pillars to hold up the ceilings of the more destroyed rooms. There were piles of debris and destroyed furniture. Raph and Donnie had walked into the main area of their old home. The skateboard ramp they used was destroyed and not usable. "Dad wants us to try and get a box of stuff he left behind I'm going to look for it as I search for Shelldon." said Donnie as he looks to see if the E.S.T. was picking up on anything. "Ok did he say what type of box it was?" asks Raph as he looks around the area. "Uhh, no just a box of books. He also said it was at the bottom of his bookshelf." said Donnie not looking up at Raph. "Alright well I'm going to go look for the stuff I came here for if I see the box or any hint if Shelldon did come here I'll let you know." said Raph as he starts to walk away looking to see the makeshift ramp was still there. "Ok and thanks." said Donnie as he doesn't see anything on the E.S.T. Raph found the makeshift ramp that they made to get up to their rooms a while back. It was made of some wooden boxes and wooden flat pieces. Raph checks to see if it was stable to walk on. Once Raph knows it's good to walk on he walks up the ramp. Raph makes it up the ramp to the hallway.The hallway was a bit damaged and destroyed but mostly ok. Raph makes his way to his room watching where he steps avoiding the debris in the hallway as he kept an eye out for Shelldon and the box. Donnie sighs and heads to the projector/ Splinters chair and Splinters bookshelf room. The room was half collapsed on the left side and the doorway was half destroyed by the debris. Splinter's chair and projector were gone and the desk, small bookshelf, and books were on the floor. Donnie barely fit through the half-destroyed doorway to get into the room. There was a wooden pillar next to the debris holding the ceiling room up. The desk was flat-faced on the floor and the bookshelf was empty laying on the floor of the right wall. Donnie checks the E.S.T. The E.S.T. doesn't pick up on anything. Donnie looks around the room to try and find the box that Splinter said he left in this room. Donnie doesn't find anything and ends up deciding maybe the box was inside the desk since he hasn't looked inside the desk before but he wasn't completely sure if the others checked it either when they came back here a while back. Donnie puts the E.S.T. back in his bag in an inside compartment inside his bag. Donnie then tries to lift the desk struggling slightly as he makes two metal arms come out of his battle shell and help him lift the desk. Donnie successfully lifts up the desk and the two desk doors open outward. One door hits Donnie in his leg but it wasn't too hard. Donnie feels a force leaning on the door as he put the desk back to normal. The other desk door that opens drops a few items, a book, a cup of pencils and crayons, a bouncy ball, a small teddy bear, paper, and a small camera turtle. The camera turtle hits the floor not hard and just spins on the floor. 'What the?' thought Donnie as he lets go of the desk and puts one of his hand on the door that hit his leg to hold it closed. Donnie looks at the camera turtle and realizes that it was a camera turtle that he put back together from some destroyed parts. Donnie puts the metal arms from his battle shell away and looks back at the desk door he was holding. Donnie then carefully opens the desk door open as he tries to make sure nothing else fell out of the desk. Donnie manages to open the desk door and catches a box that was against the desk door. A bit of dust comes off the box and Donnie coughs a bit from the dust. Donnie puts the box down on the floor. The box looked like an office cardboard box. The office cardboard box looked well-taken care of just a bit dusty. Donnie then carefully opens the box lid and the camera turtle stops spinning on the floor. In the box, some books and papers looked decently old but they were well taken care of. 'Are these the books Dad was referring to?' thought Donnie to himself. Donnie then carefully picks up one of the books inside the box. The book was very dusty and the dust cover the text cover. The book Donnie had picked up was a dark tan color. Donnie set down the cardboard lid on the floor. Donnie then held the medium size book in his hand as he looked over it. Donnie could tell there was text on the spine of the book and the front cover. 'Let's see.' thought Donnie as he carefully wiped the spine of the book with his left hand's thumb. The dust of the spine came off and left a residue of dust on Donnie's thumb. Donnie got a clear view of the text it was written in a different language but fortunately, Donnie knows how to read this language. 'Huh. Guess dad's teaching us multiple languages was useful.' thought Donnie as he read the text. The text said the history of the Hamato clan and its possible alliances in the shadow ages. 'Huh, I believe these are the books then. I don't think I've read this one before. I think I've seen this box before but I'm not completely sure. Ehhh Iv'e probably have seen it when Dad put it away or something.' thought Donnie to himself as he put the book back away into the box. Donnie goes to grab the lid but stops as he looks at the camera turtle. 'Should I? Ehhh yeah, I should.' thought Donnie as he moves and gently picks up the camera turtle. 'I remember finding these parts one day in the sewers when I first started to invent things. I believe this was my first put-together of destroyed machinery took a few tries but I did eventually sorta fix it. It wasn't ever usable but I think that's because the remote isn't with it. Still have no idea who would drop the parts in the sewer. I should probably take this stuff back too.' thought Donnie as he looked at the camera turtle and then at the other stuff that fell out of the drawer. The camera turtle looks like the baby camera robot turtle from Search for Splinter season 1 episode 25 from 2003 TMNT that Donnie made to infiltrate the TCRI building. Donnie takes out a small box from his bag. The small box was made of plastic and was a light blue color. Donnie opens the small box and inside the small box, there were compartments. Donnie puts the small camera turtle in one of the compartments in the small box. Donnie then looked at the other stuff now on the floor that fell out of the drawer. There was a book, a cup of pencils and crayons, a bouncy ball, a small teddy bear, and paper. Donnie looked at the small book at first, The small book was covered in dust but it had a dark blue cover and white text on the front cover and the spine of the book. The small book was dusty but Donnie could at least read the text on this book on the front cover. Magic for dummies says the text on the front cover of the book. 'Magic for dummies? Ooooh, wait this was the first book Leo read when we were younger. Leo always had a thing for magic. I should probably take this with me to give it to him.' thought Donnie. Donnie then put the book into the small box in another compartment. Donnie then looks at the cup of pencils and crayons, a bouncy ball, a small teddy bear, and the papers on the floor. After a small, while looking at them Donnie put the pencils, and crayons in their own compartment in the box then closed the small box put it back in his bag, and ended up taking the papers that had old drawings from Mikey and some old drawings of his first inventions and put them carefully into his bag. Donnie then grabbed Raph's first teddy bear and also carefully put that in his bag. Donnie then sighs and finally grabs the cupboard lid and puts it back onto the box. Donnie then picks up the box and gets up off the floor. Donnie then takes out the E.S.T. from his bag and checks to see if he got anything. Nothing from the E.S.T. again. Donnie sighs and starts to make his way to the half-destroyed door. Donnie managed to get the box out first through the half-broken door. Donnie then made his way through the half-broken door. Donnie sighs, getting the box again and making his way back to the main room. "Raph you good?" calls out Donnie in the main room. "Yeah, I'm good. Hey, Don do you remember this?" Calls out Raph as Raph stood in the hallway by his room. Raph was holding a broken kiteboard.
