[Seth's POV ~ A few months later]

"Kam, What're you doing here? Why are you-" "THERE'S SOMETHING THERE!" She pointed at the sewer then yelled and ran behind me, I tilted my head in confusion then looked at kami, She looked scared

"There was a big turtle there! I swear I'm not lying!" She gripped onto the sleeve of my sweater tightly while hiding behind me, Then that memory just popped up in my head, I hesitated before lifting the cover off then hopping into the sewer, 'wait, Why did I..?' "Hey parental guardian! You okay there? Can I join?"

I heard kami exclaim before jumping in without letting me answer her, "woah, This place stinks" She covered her face with her hands, I giggled at her, "Can't take it kam?" I teased "Just kidding" she randomly started hitting my arm with her hand while the other was still covering her face, I took off my face cover and gave it her.

"There, Since you're such a drama princess" I laughed at her, "So, What now?", " What do you mean? We're gonna go look for that turtle! To prove I'm not crazy!" She seemed enthusiastic with finding this turtle, Though, I didn't feel happy about it, I didn't want to relive or get a flashback of that awkward moment.

After a few minutes of looking for the turtle, Kami groaned in annoyance while I was just there seeming calm with my hands inside my hoodie pockets, "Wrong way, Maybe try the other way", She said before turning around then walked the opposite side, I continued following her and she would fidget, make random noises or purposely stomp on the floor loudly.

She came to a abrupt stop then sighed "Maybe I was just seeing things.. Welp, Let's go back ho-" We heard something in the shadows, I immediately went into a protective stance and made sure if someone or something were to attack Kami wouldn't get harmed

I hissed at where the sound came from, "We don't mean harm!" A familiar voice rang out but that was least of my worries, 'We? There's more of you?' I backed away,

"How do I know you won't?" I scowled at them, A red-eared slider turtle with a blue bandana came out of the shadows then a box turtle with a orange bandana followed along, I stood up straight but my arm was still covering kami protectively

"Wait a minute, You're-" One of them started, "Yeah, I know" I quickly cut them off, "and if you don't mind, I'm gonna get going. Let's go kam" I quietly muttered the last part to kami

"Wait, Why are you here?" The blue one asked, Kami peaked out from the side and tightened her grip on my arm, "So.. Seems like I'm not crazy afterall, haha.. You're seeing this too right?" Kami dryly chuckled at the end, I felt their grip go loose and slowly slip off

I immediately caught her before she fell, She fainted, again. The second time today, I picked her up and held her bridal style, My gaze moved to the two turtles, "I'm setias, Sorry for the rude greeting, No hard feelings right?." I gave them a weak smile and gently threw kami's limp body over my shoulder "Anyways, I gotta go" *I walked over to the nearest exit/sewer cover and climbed onto the ladder "Oh, And by the way, If you ever want to.. Y'know, Visit, drop by or talk, I'm assuming you didn't forget where I live" I spoke before exiting.

I walk back home and act as if we never went into the sewer, I wanted to save myself from the embarrassment of having to explain to her how they knew who I was or even recognized me.

[A/N: Short and mary sue-ish, I'm probably gonna discontinue this one and make different one]
