Just so you know I got a bit tired of putting (....) says this, he tells me, etc, etc so instead i am just going to put their their name then what they say. For example;

 Leo: "what is happening?"

If you don't get it then pls let me know and I will explain it to you.

(Y/N)'S POV:

This is taking forever. Do they really live that far away from my old house. 

They have just stopped. Do they know that I am following them? Have I blown my cover already? What do I - wait. The turtles are heading down into the sewers. Of course, that is the perfect place for giant turtles to live without people finding out about them.

Carefully, I climb down, remove the manhole cover and jump down quickly but quietly; to ensure that they don't know I am there. I hear faint voices in the distance, however I am so cautious about me slipping or them locating me, that I can only make out certain things of what they are saying. Then, suddenly...

SLAP!!

Mikey: "Ow. Hey, would you stop that," obviously someone had just slapped him. After a while, I hear someone...skateboarding. Wow, I didn't see that coming. It sounds like Mikey, who knew he could use a skateboard? 

Leo: "Mikey stop messing around."

Mikey: "Relax bro, it's the sewers, it's not like I could break anything down here."

Donnie: "You can break anything, anywhere, at any time Mikey. It's you," the skating sound stops suddenly. 

Mikey: "Hey!" 

I carry on listening to their conversations, but still making sure I keep my distance. I see a light coming from the other end of the room, or this part of the sewers anyway, so I decide to check it out. They couldn't have gone anywhere else.

Could they?


Peering inside, I see an old subway station, filled with,wow, everything you would need to call it home - even a game machine. I could get used to living here in a heartbeat. Leo, Raph and Mikey are on the couches: Leo and Mikey watching,  oh my god, Space Heroes. They really like that (stupid/awesome) show. Raph is sat to the side of them feeding...a pet... turtle. Cause that is not weird. I carry on looking around. 

Strange, Donnie isn't anywhere to be seen. Maybe he is in a different room.

Unknown Voice: "My sons, come to the dojo now," who is that? 

Even though I am still confused, I quickly forget about it and notice the boys get up off the couches, and Raph leaving the leaf he had in his hand next to his pet. Donnie walks out of a different room and they all head in the same direction. Swiftly, I follow them. Through the gaps between the doors, I manage to peek inside. 

There, standing in front of the turtles, is a giant talking rat. This is getting weirder by the minute. 

The rat begins to talk to them about ninjutsu, how stealth is very important for a ninja and how they must never be seen by anyone except their enemies if need be. Well, looks like they failed that part because I have seen them. 

I don't know why but I am getting the urge to just go out into the open and talk to them all - I really am acting very different today. Every now and then, I hear the turtles call the rat 'Master Splinter', so I am guessing that, that is his name. A few seconds pass and the urge to walk over there has been building and building inside me, it gets to a part where I can not take it any more. Therefore, I stroll in and say:

Me: "For ninjas you sure don't know when you are being followed," everyone's gaze turns to my direction. The turtles where almost as surprised as Splinter to see me. 

Almost.

Splinter: " Who are you and how did you know that they are ninjas?" I walk a bit closer to him.

Me: "(Y/N), a friend. And two things: 1. I heard you mention it to them, and 2. they told me, when I met them earlier," I turn to the boys and so does Splinter.

Splinter: "She saw you?!" They rub the backs of their necks and stare down to the ground. I can tell that they are not going to answer him. But I will. 

Me: " More like they saw me," Splinter's attention focuses on me again, "I was just helping out a poor woman from being beaten up the PD and they just jumped down in front of me to ask me a few questions. I had no clue they were there until they blocked my path." I  see a nervous look spread across their faces. To add to this, to look on Splinter's face showed how angry he really was. 

Splinter: "I will deal with you boys later, right now I have to talk with this girl," oh no he didn't.

Me: "Hey!" I yell to get his attention, " this 'girl' has a name you know. And I thought you would be the nice one of the lot."

Splinter: "My apologises, I am just angry at my sons here. Anyway, my name is Master Splinter, and you have a beautiful name (Y/N). But I must warn you that now you know about us, you must keep us a secret from other humans. We don't want people to find out about us."

Me: "Yeah, yeah, whatever." I start to walk around the room, inspecting every part of it. However, there is just one thing that catches my eye the most: a tree. A tree in a room, in the sewers. A tree in a room, in the sewers without a pot. That is just. you know what I am not going to even finish that sentence. 

Splinter: "I see you are a curious one (Y/N), how old are you exactly? If you don't mind me asking," obviously he has just seen me looking at the tree in a odd way.

Me: "Always have been, and I'm 15. You can ask me whatever question you want and I will answer them as long as they are not too personal."

Splinter: "Okay, what exactly was so important that my sons had to speak with you personally and expose themselves to you?" I turn back towards him.

Me: "Actually, that I do not know. You will have to question them yourself for that."

Splinter: "Boys would you care to explain?"

Leo: "Well, you see Sensei, we sort of wanted to know where she learnt those moves she used on the PD," Raph finishes the sentence for him.

Raph: "But when we asked her about it, she didn't tell us."

Me: "A. Stop it with the 'she' and 'her', I have a name. And B. That is because I don't know. I have got no clue how or when I learnt to fight like that. I just wanted them to stop hurting that defenceless, old woman and I made sure they did. For now at least."

Splinter: "Hum," he strokes his goatee "let me see these moves, then I will know how impressive they are."

I nod, wait why did I nod. 

Splinter: "You will face Michelangelo first. Hand to hand combat." 

Great.

I'm in trouble.

Sorry if this is too long a chapter. 

I know most of my other chapters are not as long as this one, however it was very important that I put a lot of information in it, so you understand things later.
