Gone

Healing

Orphic~
A few weeks went by as I spent more time with the turtles.Leo taught me meditation and we do often with Master Splinter.Sometimes,I would stay deep in thought afterwards.

I would usually watch Raph beating up his punching bag or fighting with his brothers.On rare occasions,he would talk to me or teach me defense.Just last week,he introduced me to his pet turtle,spike.I find it quite ironic for a turtle to own a turtle.

Donnie would check on my wounds from time to time,but mostly would be at his computer in his lab.He showed me some of his experiments,like this little robot he built called Metalhead.Other times,I would read his blueprints and point out mistakes.It's funny when he realizes he's been corrected by a child.

Mikey helps me understand what things are,such as the tv and video games.More oftenly(Counting it as a word.),He would show me how to work these things.The first week he taught me how to eat 'pizza' as he and his brothers called it.Let me say it was hot and burned my tongue.But I got the hang of it.

Master Splinter and I would talk sometimes.He would bring a tray of tea and would share about his past life.About how he lost his family in a fire caused by a battle with his brother/friend.It made me feel sad,but he would cheer me up with one of his tales about the boys when they were little.It always made me smile.

Smile.I got used to doing it.These people.These turtles,I mean really helped me.And just today,I was gonna meet their friends.Human friends actually.

Just then,I heard voices coming from the tunnels.I felt nervous but excited also.And a little scared.It's been a long time since I've seen or talked to another human.

"Leo! We're here!" Well here goes nothing...
