In between series: Dimensions

Fighting Friends

Yayoi faced away from the others tears streaming from her face as the others argued.

"You never told me your brother hung out with with smarmy dogface!" Akane yelled angrily. "Did they even kidnap Mikey!? Or is that all just a TRAP!?"

"HEY! NO ONE ACCUSES MY BROTHER BUT ME ALRIGHT!?" Raph shot back as he growled warningly at the female hothead.

Akane looked at him with bewilderment, she shook her head and rolled her eyes. "Whatever. When do we get your brother?" She grumped, as she kicked a rock down the hill.

"I don't know, why don't we ask Lion Face!?!" Raph retorted, angrily.

Pop turned to glare at Raph. "Excuse me? I'll have you know, I am a legendary warrior." He scowled.

"The gate will be open in a few hours. So prepare yourself however you do so, and meet back here once the sun sets." He said walking off in frustration.

Yayoi sat on a rock, staring at her open sketchbook sadly.

"Yayoi kuru?" Candy sat next to her, and reached up trying to dry the girls tears. "What's wrong kuru? Why are you crying kuru?" Candy frowned worriedly at the blonde.

Yayoi sniffed, and wiped away her tears. "Nothing, i-it's just that fight.
F-friends sh-shouldn't fight." She whispered.

Reika walked up to the turtles, and the other Precures. She cleared her throat, and caught their attention.

"Ulric is right." She said, making sure to enunciate clearly.

Nao looked at her in disbelief. "Excuse me? Who's side are you on!?"

Reika took a step back. "I-I-I'm not switching sides, I-I'm just saying that he's right. We are friends, we shouldn't fight, we should be able to come to eachother, and..." She looked down, as she shifted uncomfortably.

"We shouldn't have to be afraid to tell eachother the truth." She said softly.

"The truth about WHAT!?! How Donnie is on their side!?! What if he LET them take Mikey!? Ever think if THAT!?!" Nao yelled in disbelief at her own words.

"ENOUGH!" Leo yelled. "I know Donnie, and that is not him. I know you don't like my brothers, but Donatello is a good person, even if he... sometimes... loses sight of what's important." He sighed.

"I'm not asking you to go in there with us. Just let us find him." Leo pleaded with the girls.

"We're going. We started this together, and we'll finish this together! OKAY!?!" Myuki glared with determination.

Akane huffed. "Fine, but I reserve the right to say I told you so." She grumbled.

Myuki shrugged. "What do we do until the moon is up?"

Akane yawned. "I don't know about you, but I am taking a nap." She said, as she plopped back down onto the ground.

Reika smiled. "I think I'll take a nice, relaxing walk." She said, as she casually walked down the hill.

Yayoi clutched her sketchbook tightly to her chest, as she determinedly marched off, the way that Donnie went.

Nao shrugged, and decided to rest. Myuki began to play with Candy, as Leo went off a little ways to meditate.

Donatello was sitting in a large tree, working on his little project. His anger towards the human species grew, as his conversations with Ulric and Akaoni ran through his head unceasingly.
