Turtles Forever

Moon Eyes Part Three

"Man, how long is this storm going to go on? It just won't let up. I have to find Alopex. Please, let her be okay." Mikey shivered.

"Huh?" Mikey had a feeling that he was being followed. "Anybody there? Mokoshan? If that's you, I'm not in the mood." A loud growl and Mikey quickly turned around. Mikey made a girlish scream as he came face to face with a giant polar bear. It was abnormally large as it stood on its legs, towering over Mikey and let out another aggressive roar. "AW SHELL!"

Mikey quickly ducked out of the way as the bear swung its claws at him. Mikey quickly pulled out his nunchucks and the bear smacked Mikey back, knocking him down to the ground. Mikey quickly scrambled to grab his weapons as the bear started to inch closer to him. "Ow, my back! I gotta get out of here!" Then Mikey felt himself being lifted up by his hood as the bear grabbed him by his claws. "I don't suppose we could talk this out?" Mikey smiled sheepishly. Mikey felt the hot breath from the bear's mouth as it snorted in his face then it flung Mikey as it threw him. Mikey screamed as he was falling over a cliff. This was it. His entire life was over. He was going to become a turtle pancake and probably become that freak of nature's dinner! No one was going to find him. Mikey felt his shell hit something hard and slammed his head.

"Ali...I'm sorry." Mikey murmured softly and blacked out as he heard the large bear above him, peering down as it let out a roar.

"Moon eyes." Alopex slowly opened her eyes, blinking them in the darkness. She saw a figure sitting in front of her as they held a candle in there and saw a wolf woman wearing a light-yellow top and blue pants, barefoot. She set the candle down on the table by the bedside. "He calls you moon eyes. I doubt you know what that really means."

Alopex saw the woman glaring at her eyes filled with jealously. "I do. I know what it means, especially to me. Here let me check your bandages." The woman grabbed Alopex's injured shoulder roughly tugging on her bandages.

"AARGH!" Alopex cried out in pain.

"Dear sweet, Moon eyes."

"Alopex!" The door busted open and Mokoshan rushed into the room, seeing the two. He was wearing a blue vest over a white shirt and red pants, barefoot as well.

"Oops." The wolf woman pulled away, seeing him.

"Out. Revyen. NOW." Mokoshan ordered. Revyen made a small bow and brushed the alpha wolf, sharing a glance with him and he stared her down. She closed the door behind her, leaving. Mokoshan turned and walked over to the bed to Alopex and checked her bandages, readjusting them.

"M...Mokoshan?" Alopex said, weakly.

"I'm right here. Just go back to sleep." Mokoshan said, softly.

"T-That woman, who w-was she?" Alopex murmured, struggling to keep her eyes open. She felt like she was fading in and out. Where was Mikey?

"Never mind her. Just sleep and get well. The storm will pass soon." Mokoshan said to Alopex and he pulled the blankets back on her. Alopex felt so tired and drained, and she closed her eyes going back to sleep. Mokoshan watched over her as he sat by the bedside until he got up and left the room as Alopex rested.

"Listen, do you hear that?" Donnie asked.

"I don't hear anything." Venus said.

"Exactly, the storm's over. We can head out and find Alopex." Donnie said and opened the flap of the tent, crawling out. Venus followed behind him. The blizzard had passed, and snow was still falling gently to the ground. Donnie walked over to Leo and Yuuki's tent to tell them that the storm had passed. Venus went to wake up Raph, Mona and April and Casey. As Donnie approached closer, he was startled to see Leo open the tent stepping outside.
