Our Family (TMNT FANFIC)

Coming To New York

Yoshi (master splinter) -

I'm rolling my suit case to the bagging cart,when a young woman walks up to me.

"I'll take that for you sir," she says with a kind smile.

"Yes, thank you," I say handing the woman my luggage. As she takes it away I pull out my passport checking what plane I'm supposed to get on. Flight eight. I tuck the pass port back into my pocket, then find a bench to sit on. I hear the intercom call my flight number so I get up and hurry to the boarding plane area. A man checks my plane ticket then lets me walk threw the entrance. I quickly find a seat before to many people come onto the plane. After a few minutes a flight attendant comes out holding a micro phone.

"Attention passengers we will be leaving in five minutes, so please remain seated and
If you have any questions I will b e here to assist you.." She says exciting to a door way.

As I sit there waiting for us to take off I see a child walking threw the isle looking lost.
She searches around confused then starts to cry. I am the first one to the scene. I get up and gently touch the little girls shoulder. She looks at me in shock continuing to be up set. I start searching around for a flight attendant when I see a woman looking around frantically. I tap the little girls shoulder again and point to the woman. The little girl nods and stops crying.

I start walking the girl to her mother when she suddenly glances my way. She instantly races over to us looking a little relieved.

"Is this what your looking for?" I ask with a smile.

The mother bends down,hugs her child,then looks up at me and
says,"arigatou," which is "thank you" in Japanese. I nod and wave as they walk away then return to my seat. The flight attendant returns and announces for every one to sit down and remain calm as we take off.

Soon after the plane starts escalating into the sky as we head for America.

I stare out the window as the ground shrinks below us. Memories of the fire come to mind.

In a flash she was gone. My "brother", Saki, had struck her with his blade on accident as he aimed for me.
I fought her lifeless body as she feel. Holding her in my arms the ceiling started coming down in flames. Then there was nothing but darkness.

When I awoke I was out side. My vision was foggy but I could still see Saki walking away with a slight limp.

"Noooo!" I scream unable to get up.

I suddenly here an echoing voice interupting my thoughts.

I look up to a flight attendants trying to get my attention.

"Sir," she says.

"Oh,yes.." I answer coming back to reality.

"Would you like to order something to eat. We're having a special on the salad meal,"
She asks with a smile.

"Maybe later,"I reply.

"Ok, just give me a call if you need anything," she says.

I nod and she leaves. I start to fall asleep as we soar threw the air.

After a couple of hours I wake up and order the salad special. Many more hours pass and we finally land in New York city.

I excited the plane and go to the luggage area and find my suit case.

Once I'm out of an air port the bustling city seems a little overwhelming.

I take a bus to an apartment I had pre-rented. I get their at around 12:00 and check in.

"Hamato,Yoshi?" A woman says looking up at me.

"Yes," I reply.

"Your on floor 2-B, go to the very last door on the left," She says handing me a pair of keys. I grab them ,go to the elevator, and press the 2-B button.

I follow the woman's defections to my apartment. I open the door to a living room.
To my left looks like a kitchen it has a sink and cabinets. I'm surprise when I see there's a fridge to. I set my suit case down and explore the apartment. There the kitchen,then a bedroom that's on the right of a little hallway,and a bathroom at the end of the Hall. Last was the balcony that connected to a fire escape.

I go to the bed room and start to unpack. I pull out a picture of my wife and daughter then sit it on the window seal. Once I finish unpacking enough for the day I go out side on the balcony and take a deep breath. Tomorrow I will try to go out and find a job.

It's almost three now I start to get hungry so I order a pizza. By the time it gets here
It's night has fallen. I pay, eat, and get my bad ready.

I have to use a meditation pad,one of the few things I brought from Japan, for to night.
Lighting a candle I start to go to sleep.

Dreaming of what tomorrow will bring.
