"Uh, Kim, what are you doing?" Raph asked as he made his way over to the sewer slider with Leo.

"What does it look like I'm doing, Raph?" Kimmy asked from her spot on the floor. She was sitting in a lotus position on the floor. Her hands turned into fits and pressed together in front of her.

"Uh, something stupid probably," Raph said shaking his head. "I mean, it looks like ya meditating, but that can't be right."

"As a matter of fact, Raph, I am meditating," Kimmy said opening her eyes and looking at Raph. "Something amazing happened last night, and I'm trying to recreate it. So far it hasn't been working."

"Then, give up. That's what you normally do when things get difficult for ya." Raph said chuckling.

"I do not 'always' give up," Kimmy replied sounding insulted. Mikey laughed while Raph and Leo just rolled their eyes and drove off.

"Yeah ya do, sis," Mikey said, Kimmy glared at him. "You have never completed a puzzle before. If it starts to aggravate you, you immediately quit." Kimmy thought about what he said as Mikey walked off. She huffed and went back to meditating. A few hours pass, the others are still busy getting the place set up and livable.

"What's the matter, Mikey, can't decide what to watch?" Donnie asked, causing Kimmy to open her eyes and stand up. Mikey had about twenty TVs set up in the living room. Kimmy walked over and leaned over the back of the couch that Splinter was sitting on. Master Splinter is sewing up an old training dummy and Mikey adding the last TV we got on to the pile of TVs.

"I need more power captain. The turtle cave must be set for maximum entertainment potential." Mikey said before plugging in a cable, the room darkened just slightly.

"Great job....I love living in the dark." Kimmy muttered the lights came back on and Mikey picked up the remote and turned on the TV. WHite noise blared from the TV causing Kimmy to step back and cover her ears. Mikey quickly turned off the TV.

"Aww..." Mikey sighed. Donnie made his way over as Kimmy regained her composer.

"The turtle cave?" Donnie asked chuckling. "That is so lame."

"What would you call our new digs? The shellter?" Mikey asked.

"How about the sewer of solitude?" Donnie asked.

"Misfit mansion?" Kimmy suggested.

"Terrapin station?" Mikey asked.

"The school for gifted reptiles?" Donnie said.

"Ninja HQ?" Kimmy added, enjoying this game of name-the-new-lair.

"Okay. How about, the hall of ninjustice?" Mikey suggested Splinter cleared his throat and they looked at him.

"We will call this place: home." Splinter said they seemed to agree with his choice.

"Hmm catchy," Mikey said Don ran off to his little work table. Mikey picked up a couple things and walked off. Kimmy yawned and stretched, she had been trying to recreate that trick all day.

"Now what is keeping Leonardo and Raphael?" Master Splinter asked.

"They just went to get the last of our stuff from the old lair," Mikey said.

"And with the way to new sewer slider is performing, they should be back any minute now," Donnie said as he worked on his tiny robot he took apart, it started smoking.

"Great! Can't wait." Kimmy muttered before floating into the air and flying into her room, she lands on the floor and looks around. "Time to add my own personal touch to this room."
