I wake up in a ufamiliar place. A new place does make sense to not know where you are at first. I remember the feeling of being free. But what do free people do once they wake up?

I turn to my side to see another bed with a body laying in it. I hear Máno laughing at me by me.

The person next to me must be Griz.

I get up and bring Máno to the kitchen with me.

I make a few eggs and check what time it is. 7:38.

A surprise breakfast would be nice to make for the mutants who took us all in, in an instant.

I peak in the fridge and get some eggs and bread from the cabinet.

I break the eggs shells and put them in the bowl.

I instantly find a pan and turn on the stove.

I dip the bread in the pre-scrambled egg and put it in the pan to fry.

While waiting I get a serving plate and stack the rest on there.

Right when I was begining so set up the table I hear a few shuffles and closing doors.

Leo Donnie and Raph walk in along with Mikey.

"Morning guys. Breakfast?"

I ask.

"I made French toast with bacon and if that isn't enough I can make more."

I say chirpy.

Mikey takes a whif of the acent of my cooking.

"Smells great dudette. What is it?"

I stare at him with a 'whaaaat?" Look on my face.

"You never tried French toast befor!?"

I said I'm shock.

"It's bread dipped with raw egg and fried on a pan. You put syrup or peanut butter on it. I prefure putting jelly on mine."

I say as a request.

"Cool!" He responds.

I see all four turtles sit down and take one bite.

"Can we keep her!?"
Don asked. I giggle at all four of them react to my cooking. I'm surprised it came out good. It's been a while since I even picked up a actual cooking tool.

They all looked like there mind just blew up and chowed down.

Before you knew it-

"More please!"

I make more and extra for the girls when they wake up.

Right while I was thinking of I should check if they were alive or not they all walk in the kitchen.

Kri helped cooking up the rest while I sat down next to Máno and ate my french toast.

¤~¤~¤~¤~¤~

I think about dinner while sitting down chowing on my bacon and think...
Red Chilli Tamales!

Wait.... that can be tomorrow. Tamales need a lot of preparing overnight. But for now I want to taste a lot of foods I haven't eaten for this past two years.

I start to miss my New Mexico home every day.

Who knew a vacation would turn out to be a lifetime.

I shake my head to go back to earth and focus on Máno.

He is all dirty and full of jelly.

I smirk and lift him from the chair and wipe him up a bit.

Horrible memories hit me Like a truck. The torture of being a lab rat.

"Are you okay Shado?"

I look at Donnie and smile and nod.

"Just a bit of a headache." I exclain.

"Oh! We have ibupofine." I see him leave to his lab and follow. He reaches out to a cabinet full of medical supplies and gives me two ibupofine.
"Thanks Don" I smirk and leave with the pills in hand. I grab a water from the kithen and take them.

Máno was with Mikey again on the floor playing with toy cars that seem to have appeared out of the blue.

Máno sure does like to spend time with Mikey.
He hasn't spoken at all sinse yesterday. Maybe Mikey can get Máno to talk again.

This situation reminds me of a book I have read once. It's called Listening For Lucca

And is about a girl who has visions and moved to a beach where she recognizes a house and tries to make her brother Lucca talk while solving the "ghost" problem with the house.

Well... maybe only the brother trying to talk part really. They found a boy the girls age and he plays with Lucca and the whole family belived maybe a new person for Lucca to play with is the solution.

Point is, what if Mikey is that someone Lucca needs in order for him to talk.

"Hey Shado!" I hear Griz call my name.

"Oh! Hey Griz."

"You were kinda daydreaming there. You okay?" She asks in worry.

"Hmm. Oh! Yeah. Just thinking. I tend to zone out a lot. Being locked in a cell for about two years didn't help it at all..." I sigh.

After that it was silent for a bit.

"Oh! I forgot to tell you but want to go out and get new stuff for our room. All it has is two beds and a nightstand. Seems kinda dull don't cha think?" She asks.

My only question was...

Where did the money come from??
