On yet another eventful patrol, the calm and ordinary facade quickly faded away as we found ourselves hot on the trail of Snakeweed. This mutant menace had been causing havoc in town, kidnapping innocent people for some reason.
I watched as Snakeweed dashed down the street, his weed form slithering with unnatural speed. Without hesitation, I sprang into action, my two brothers right beside me.
As we closed in on Snakeweed, he abruptly turned around, his venomous gaze meeting ours. A thrilling chase ensued, with Raph and Leo close behind. But just when it seemed like victory was within our grasp, a pizza delivery guy on a speedy scooter unknowingly became a part of the chaos. Snakeweed seized the opportunity, snatching the poor pizza dude from his vehicle, leaving him in an unfortunate predicament.
My heart went out to the pizza guy, caught up in our battle against the mutant villain. It was a reminder that our fight to protect the city often involved innocent bystanders getting caught in the crossfire.
"No!" Mikey shouted. "Not the pizza guy! Take Donnie!"
"Snakeweed's gettin' away!" Donnie called out warningly ignoring his little brother.
We quickened our pace, determined to keep up with Snakeweed. Suddenly, the mutant weed made a sharp turn, darting into the narrow confines of an alleyway. We got him now!
"Somebody help me!" The pizza guy shouted.
"Don't worry dude help is on the way!" I yell
Abruptly, Leo came to a halt, his outstretched hand serving as a signal for us to cease our pursuit. Without hesitation, we mirrored his actions, bringing ourselves to a swift and silent stop.
"We've got him trapped," He said stating the obvious.
"Good!" Raph withdrew his sais. "Then let's go weed whacking!"
"Tree trimmin'!" Donnie said, Bo staff in hand.
"Gardening!" Mikey piped up, looking pleased with himself. "Boom! Haha, oh yeah! Mikey put the sprinkles on that sundae!"
Raph sighed with irritation, as I rolled my eyes. "Let's go!" Raph said, stepping forward before I grabbed him by his shell in annoyance. All muscles and no brain with that.
"Wait a minute, dude," I interjected, disregarding the simmering glare from Raph. "Let's use our brains for a change. How are we supposed to take down a twelve-foot mutant in such a confined space?" I questioned, releasing my grip on Raph's shell and nudging him towards Mikey, who let out a small whimper, at the fire in the hot head's eyes.
Just as Raph was about to retaliate, Leo swiftly stepped forward, positioning himself between us, effectively shielding me from Raph's impending wrath. "Vee's right, Raph. We need a plan," Leo asserted, his voice calm but authoritative. Finally, someone who's willing to listen and think things through.
"Then what are we doing?" Raph snapped irritably.
"We'll take Snakeweed from above..." Leo declared, his gaze fixed on the rooftops. "Tie him up in the clotheslines, c'mon!" With that, he swiftly pulled himself up onto one of the building ledges, and I followed closely behind.
Raph, however, voiced his disagreement not moving from his spot on the ground. "That'll take forever!" he argued, his voice tinged with impatience. A low growl rumbled from Leo, and I winced at the brewing tension between them. "And we need to stop Snakeweed now, I mean, he's kidnapping people!"
Mikey chimed in, his voice filled with concern. "Not just people! People who bring pizza!"
Leo's frustration was evident as he was probably about to snap at Raph before I butted in. "We have to approach this strategically. Taking Snakeweed by surprise from above gives us the advantage. We can't afford to let our impatience compromise the mission." I said before turning to look at Leo, "It's your call bro."
