Forever Petrified Tmnt

Hockey Boy

Furia's Pov

I stretched and snuggled closer into my pillow. I sighed contently, hmm I wonder why I feel so secure. All of a sudden I felt my pillow move and its arms wrap around me. I opened my eyes quickly, getting ready to fight. But instead of seeing the Krang or the foot I opened my eyes to see a turtle, but not just any turtle, it was Donnie. I blushed a bright red, realizing I had slept on top of him the whole night. I stealthily got out of his grip and stood up. I sighed happily that my head ache was gone. That's when my eyes went wide and I realized I had school today. I glanced at the time, 7:15.

"Crap." I said under my breath. I grabbed my bag and dug through it, looking for something to wear. I pulled out a pair of black jeans, red converse, and a black tank top. I slipped it all on, making sure to hide my tail in my pant leg. And then I looked in the mirror, I almost looked normal. I dug through my bag until I found my black fedora and my black hoodie. I placed my hat on and then my hoodie, not pulling the hood up just yet. I grabbed my backpack, phone, and my journal. Before leaving Donnie's lab I looked back and I smiled widely as I saw his arms searching for something, which I knew was me. I blushed and started to make my way out of the quiet lair and to school.  I slowly lifted the manhole cover, making sure no one was around before slipping my way out. I pushed it closed and started to run to the school. I checked the time 7:27. I groaned and picked up the pace. I only had 3 minutes to make on time, I could see the school in view. I ran faster and faster. There was no way I'd make it. That's when suddenly I felt my eyes sharpen even more and my cat reflex take over. I ran faster than I ever have. The wind felt nice through my hair. I held onto my hat and whooshed past the people hurrying for class, leaving them dumbstruck. Finally I ran into math breathing heavily, right as the bell rang. Mr. Steffin rolled his eyes, annoyed that I had made it. 

"How is it you always make it to class right when the bell rings?" He frowned angrily.

"Just lucky I guess." I smiled nervously as I took my seat.

"One more tardy and you would've gotten a detention." He sighed and started the lesson. Mr. Steffin has always hated me. I am very intelligent, but I don't show it off too much or I get bullied. Sometimes when he calls on me I get the answer wrong on purpose. But I think he knows that I really do know the answer, considering I am a straight A student.

 I could feel my eyes slowly focus to their regular size. That made me wonder. How did I run that fast, Do I have other powers I don't know about? 

I sighed and looked around the room at the students taking notes, fooling around, and talking. I frowned, I didn't have any friends in school, they all thought I was weird because I played hockey, I spent most of my time doodling in my notebook, and no one has ever seen me without a hat for five years. I kinda missed having at least two or three friends. But I had cut myself off from people after becoming a mutant. I was afraid what they would say, I was afraid of rejection, afraid of their reaction, if it would be like my moms. So I kept to myself. Even when someone did try and get to know me, I'd somehow scared them off.

I was brought out of my thoughts when the bell rang. I gathered my stuff and walked to my locker, I grabbed my stuff and shut it with a loud bang. I smiled, Period 4 Science, my favorite. I walked into the science lab and sat at my station. This was the only class I would show that I'm a nerd sometimes. The teacher started the lesson on Cell Theory. One of the lessons I had learned myself at home. I was way ahead of my class in science. I had already read all the college science textbooks, there wasn't much in science I didn't know. And that's the way I like it, I feel if I know everything I'm actually useful for a change. I smiled and payed as much attention as possible. I know, I know, that's what a nerd would do but I can't help it, Science is amazing. I like inventing and experimenting in my free time. Its the only thing that can get my mind off things that worry me, well besides hurting the Krang and foot. I laughed at the thought.
