TMNT 2007: NightWatching Love (Raph X Jamie)

Chapter 8: A Fight Without Teamwork

The next morning was crazy for Jamie and Raph. When they woke up, Skylar and Mikey took pictures of them. They chased them until they swore they would delete them. Then they spent the rest of the day hanging out with each other. And when it was time for them to go to the surface, Jamie and Skylar were told to stay with Splinter. They agreed and the turtles met up on one of the buildings.

"Okay, Leo, I'll bite. What are we doing up here?" Raph asked.

"I told Splinter I'd get this team in shape again," Leo answered.

"Hey, I've been training. Since you left, my video-game scores have, like, doubled," Mikey declared proudly while hanging upside down.

"Right, and while you've been playing games, little brother, this Night Watcher's come into the neighborhood like some kind of vigilante showboat. But his days are done," Leo explained, determined.

"Hey, you went AWOL, Leo. And the Night Watcher was the only guy to pick up the slack," Raph replied, jumped off the ledge he was sitting on, and snapped, "Crime never took a break. You did."

"I heard his bike turns into a plane or, like, a jetpack. Hey, Don, you're so smart, why don't we have jetpacks?" Mikey asked, fully upside down.

"That's good, Mikey. I don't even trust you with a driver's license. Have you seen the way this guy behaves-" Donnie started until a roar was heard, making Mikey fall off but quickly recovered.

"Whoa. Someone's cranky," he said, pointing to a construction sight and another roar screeched through the air.

"Okay, jungle boy. Grab a vine," Raph said, jumping off the building.

"Raph, wait. Splinter told us not to fight," Leo replied, but the others didn't listen.

"'Jungle boy.' Good one," Mikey giggled as he and Donnie followed Raph.

Leo sighed defeatedly and followed them.

"All right. But remember, we're only up here for training," Leo reminded.

"You know what I always say, 'Train by doing, dude'," Mikey said.

"Mikey, when have you ever said that?" Donnie asked.

"You smell that? It's like a monkey cage up here," Raph pointed out.

They all made it to see the Foot were fighting off this huge yeti and let's just say, they weren't doing so great.

"Wow, good news is, there's a bunch of Foot ninjas getting the snot kicked out of them," Mikey commented then the yeti swatted more like flies then roared.

"Bad news is, this thing is gonna run out of bodies soon," Donnie added.

"Yeah, so? You think we should help these guys? I'd rather enjoy the show. What do you say, fearless leader?" Mikey asked.

"We're not-" Leo started.

"I say we stop talking," Raph interrupted.

He charged then the others followed suit.

"Come here, fuzzy wuzzy!" Mikey yelled.

Before Leo could help his brothers, Karai spotted him.

"You," she said and attacked.

"I think we're getting off on the wrong foot here," Leo said, dodging her attacks, then grabbed her sword, and added, "We're trying to help you."

"Never," Karai sneered, flipped, then told her Foot ninjas to retreat in Japanese.

"Wait, the Shredder's dead. Who are you working for?" Leo asked, but they were gone.

"Hey, a little help, O fearless one," Raph commented.

Leo joined in and they managed to make the yeti fall through the floor.

"That was too easy!" Raph bragged, until the yeti jumped back up, then yelled, "Like I said, too easy!"

Then it swung and hit Raph, sending him to the other side of the structure and he hit the beam hard, but shrugged it off.

"Bad dog," he growled.

The yeti snarled and knocked Donnie away. He tried to recover, but his bō staff got caught and he dangled over the edge.

"Look at me. Found the elevator," he remarked.

Then the yeti and three of the turtles fell through the floor.

"Oh, my shoulder. My spleen," Mikey cried.

Raph jumped over the other side, falling beside the yeti and his brothers. He went fast and used his sais to zip line himself down before the others. It didn't take long for them to crash down to the first floor.

"This place needed a skylight," Raph commented.

The yeti got up and made its way to the turtles. They backed up defensively until they saw a gap with metal rods pointing up. They were trapped.

"This is why we need jetpacks," Mikey said.

"Okay, any more bright ideas?" Donnie asked.

"How about this?" Mikey suggested and he and Donnie held each other while screaming.

Then left over debris fell on them as the yeti looked away.

"When this is over, I'm totally calling the architect," Donnie said from under the rubble.

Before the turtles got out, the yeti was captured by these stone generals. When they got out, the yeti was gone.

"Wait a minute. How did something that big just disappear? I mean, it doesn't-" Donnie wondered until sirens got louder as they got close then he responded, "Uh oh."

"Dude, it's the cops," Mikey replied.

They made it to a manhole cover, but Raph stood there, looking at the truck that took it; he wanted to go after them.

"Raph. Raph!" Leo called until finally Raph jumped in then Leo before the police showed up.

"Oh, yeah. The turtles are back, dudes. I give us a 10 for style, an eight for skill, and a two for stealth," Mikey exclaimed before they headed back.

They were definitely not planning on telling Splinter or Skylar (since she was too young) about what happened, but Jamie might need to know.

A/N So, the turtles got to fight a yeti-type creature and they ran into the Foot. What do you think will happen when they get back home?
