It's been about three weeks since I and my brothers went topside, and it's safe to say life has been pretty good. Aside from the occasional crime-fighting, nothing too interesting has decided to show up. Currently, my and bros are jumping across some rooftops in the city, challenging each other to see who can do the absolute best flips, leaps, and somersaults...you get my point.
"Check it out!" Donnie shouted.
The purple-banned mask turtle lunged forward, running past all of us making me speed up a little in an effort to catch him. Sadly he jumped off the rooftop and flipped, letting out a loud and happy "Yee-hee!" Before I could catch him. Donnie landed neatly on the opposite rooftop, sliding to a stop and waiting for us with a smug look.
"Well played, Donatello!" I yelled with a shake of my head watching the genius turtle do a small victory dance.
"Oh please, let the real turtle show you how it's done!" said Mikey.
My youngest brother jumped and bounced off the side of a rooftop water tower. He flipped in midair before rolling onto the opposite rooftop, landing right next to Donnie. Mikey laughed as he punched his fist into the air, and Donnie clapped. The rest of my brothers and I all skidded to a stop at the end of the roof. We looked down to see the drop was pretty far down but it's nothing ninjas couldn't handle.
"Top that, turtle chumps!" Mikey shouted as Donnie smirked at us, making challenging gestures with his hands.
"Oh, you bet your shell we will Mike!" I taunted, grinning at the younger turtle whose expression dropped to a pout.
"Alright guys, let the master show you how it's done," Leo grinned cockily. "Check this out!"
The blue-masked turtle took several steps back, then darted forward. He did a couple of front flips before jumping off of the roof. He did a few more flips in the air before landing on his feet on the opposite roof, finishing off with a midair cartwheel. All in all, it was great but now it was my turn.
I applauded tauntingly before smirking Leo's way in a silent challenge. "Wonderful, my dear brothers. Wonderful. Now get a load of real talent!" Backing up a couple of steps, I ran forward, launching myself off the roof. I did a couple of corkscrews, before doing a front flip and landing on my feet in front of my loser brothers who looked gobsmacked at my amazing performance.
"Awesome bro!" Mikey yelled giving me a high three, while both Donnie and Leo nodded with him in agreement.
"Now let's see what Raphael can do!" I jeered, watching the hothead of the family smile before he cracked his neck as he took a step back. Then he ran to the ledge, jumped, and shot forward I and the rest of my bros had just enough time to see him coming like a bullet before he crashed into us.
I let out a small scream, groaning in slight pain as all my turtle brothers landed on top of me. I heard Raph laugh as he got off of us with a new kick in his step. The red-masked turtle sat on the ground and smirked cheekily at us as the other boys all stood up with me still on the ground glaring at my older brother.
"Not cool, dude," I groaned as I sat up with the help of Mikey.
"Hey, what was that?" asked Donnie. "You didn't do any flips."
"Oops." Raph grinned shamelessly.
A sound drew our attention to the other side of the rooftop. Leo darted forward, leaning against the wall, me and the guys following close behind. He held up a hand, while the rest of us were waiting for him to give the signal. He held his hand up, telling us to wait. Then he reached back and slowly unsheathed his sword. At once I reached down and took out my kusarigama as the others all took out their weapons. We waited a couple of seconds before jumping out from behind the wall only to stare in surprise at what appeared.
