~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Each one of the non Foot/Hamato clan members receive letters right at their mailboxes. The Foot Clan has a stack load of letters delivered, while April has enough letters delivered to her to bring her and her friends on the Cruise. Casey has his letter delivered to his house instead of with April.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A messenger arrives at Shredder's throne room with the letters, delivering them to Shredder personally, having found no weapons or other hazards inside.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shiro's hanging with Karai, playing on her PSP.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mikey's humming as he's cooking a pizza.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kirby's making breakfast for him and April.

[Lethal Lullaby]

April walked into the kitchen rubbing her eyes still a bit sleepy. She saw her dad making breakfast and smiled at him. "Morning, Dad. What you making?" She asks before noticing the mail on the table. There was a lot invitations it seemed.

The red head reached out taking one of the envelopes and opening it. She then started to read the letter. "Hmm. A cruise? This looks interesting."

~*~

Fish Face went up to Shredder’s Throne room as he watched a mail carrier bring quote a few envelopes to Shredder. "Ehhhh Shredder. What are those letters?" He asks.

Meanwhile Rock Steady stood against a pillar with his hands up behind his head. He was also curious about the letters they recieved.

~*~

Shilo was in her kitchen doodling when her cousin dropped an envelope before her. "Hmm?" She took it and immediately opened it. She gasped when she saw what it read. "Ooh. I always wanted to go on a cruise." She says before getting up and going to get ready.

Shredder receives letters and he opens them.
"Hm, Invitation from T.C.R.I? What have Kraang up to now?

I have not time for that!
My Revenge goes first." He says aloud.

[Shiro Kame]

Kirby: Good morning, April. I'm making bacon and eggs with toast.

As Kirby was coming over to place a plate of toast on the table, he glanced over and saw the invitation.

Kirby: Cruise huh? Why would they give so many invitations...? Wh...wait...? TCRI...?!

Kirby dropped the plate of toast, causing it to shatter on the floor. He just stared there with a look of traumatized shock. After his ordeal of being kidnapped and imprisoned by the Kraang for a year, and mutated for nearly year TWICE, he was understandably traumatized and horrified. What were the Kraang up to this time? He knew that it was highly unlikely that the Kraang were doing this out of benevolence, so WHY the cruise?

[Metroid]

Casey was at home when he received the invitation, he decided to call April and tell her the good news, so he dialed her number and placed the phone next to his ear.

Rahzar walk into shredders throne room.

"Hey boss, look what I got!"
Rahzar says as he holds up his letter, wrapped in a pink envelope

[Spirael]

After checking the chore chart for the morning, Donatello noticed it was his turn to collect the mail. Grumbling sleepily to himself, he headed out to stick his head topside and stealthily retrieve the letters from the mailbox he’d set up a safe distance away from the lair.

Occasionally they had small packages delivered of ordered items, but as far as Donnie was aware there was nothing due to be arriving at the moment. He’d expected to find maybe a letter for Splinter from one of the old friends that he occasionally wrote to, but instead he discovered five near identical corporate looking envelopes.

The only difference was the names on each one. Hamato Yoshi, Hamato Leonardo, Hamato Raphael, Hamato Michelangelo and, of course, Hamato Donatello. They were post marked with the TCRI logo.

“Well this can’t be good.” Donnie murmured to himself, quickly sticking the envelopes into his belt and melting back into the shadows before returning swiftly back to the lair.
He headed into the kitchen, where Michelangelo seemed to be preparing breakfast pizza.

“Smells good.” Donnie commented, as he helped himself to some coffee. “The others up yet? We’ve got some, uh… Interesting mail. Here…”

He set Mikey’s letter down on the countertop next to where he was cooking, then dropped the rest on the table before sitting down to open his own.

~*~

With his breakfast chocolate bar clutched in one hand and slowly being dissolved by the stomach acid he’d just spat over it, Baxter Stockman walked over to retrieve the mail that had just been delivered.

Bills, more bills, the latest copy of Evil Scientist weekly, a reminder to visit the dentist and…

“What izzzz thizzzz?” Stockman buzzed, walking over to drop the other letters onto his desk and sucking down the liquefied food as he did.

With both hands freed up, he then proceeded to open the TCRI branded envelope and read the message contained within.

“A cruizzzze? Soundzzzz like fun.”

His latest evil plan forgotten, he headed off to pack.

[Electric]

Raphael rolled out of his bed at the smell of his brother cooking breakfast. he walked through the main room and into the kitchen, following the scent of whatever Mikey was making. If he had to give his brother credit for being good at one thing, his ability to make a decent meal out of whatever scraps they could find and the groceries April brought over was pretty impressive.

He walked in and slopped down on one of the barstools, noticing Donnie was here. Not unusual for him to be up at this time, as raph was pretty sure he didn't sleep most nights, just unusual for him to be out of his lab.

He then saw the letters on the counter. "Did we just get...mail?" He said in disbelief "I didn't know they sent junk letters to mutant reptiles living in the sewers, but whadoyaknow" he picked up the one addressed to him, then noticed the Kraang insignia on it. "Oh shell..."

[Lethal Lullaby]

April looked at her dad with a frown knowing that there was no way he would want to do anything pertaining to TCRI. "Hey dad don't worry. We don't have to go probably. Let's just see if there's a number we can call.." She said to him as she checked hers if there was a R.S.V.P note with a phone number by it.

~*~

Fish Face grabbed the envelope which had his name on it. He half hoped it was a letter of admiration, but knowing his current luck it wasnt. He opened it and pulled out the invitation.

"A cruise ehh? Interesting." The mutant fish says thinking about all the things he could do on a cruise. Especially if they're traveling over seas. He then noticed the costume part and laughed to himself. Well I guess I can say that I am wearing my costume.

~*~

Shilo was in her shower listening to some R&B as she thought of what to dress up as. "Maybe I should be a pirate, ooh or a penguin!" She said to herself outloud.

[Shiro Kame]

Mikey: Beside Sensei, I think we're the only ones up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``
Mikey opens his letter: Awesome! It's an invite to a cruise...! Wait, why does the guy's name on the bottom look Kraang-y?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shiro sighed and went to check her messages.
She then opened found a letter from TCRI, causing a growl to form from her.

Shiro: What do those bastards want...? A CRUISE? Is this some sort of JOKE!? Just what are they up to?!

Due to being kidnapped, mutated and experimented on by the Kraang as a child, Shiro HATED the Kraang and possessed the desire to have them all exterminated.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kirby sits on the floor in a featle position, going into PTSD.

[Spirael]

“Because it’s from the Kraang, Shellbrain!” Donnie retorted to Mikey, as he ripped open his own envelope and skimmed the letter contained within.

“They’re inviting us on a cruise?” he then commented, incredulously. “Somehow, it doesn’t seem likely that this is an apology for trying to kill us numerous times and take over the planet.”

It was far too early to have to think about this. Or possibly far too late. What time was it anyway? Donatello took a long slurp from his coffee, then stood again and walked over to the kitchen doorway.

“LEO!” he yelled, in an effort to summon the last turtle. “You’ve got mail!”

~*~

Baxter Stockman hummed happily, as he fished out his suitcase and started loading it with all the moth eaten holiday clothes he’d not needed for years. He threw in a few Mousers as well, just in case.

"So you got one to, Bradford." Grumbled Shredder.

[Shiro Kame]

Shiro enter the throne room.

Shiro: He is not the only one. I also received an invitation from the Kraang. Did anyone else receive one?

~~~~~~~~~~~

Mikey: Aw, man...! I wanted to go...!!

[Lethal Lullaby]

"I've got one as well." Fish Face comments to Shiro holding his invitation up. He then looked to Shredder. "Hey who knows? Maybe our enemies got invitations as well." he says knowing that Shredder would take any chance to strike at the turtles and Splinter.

~*~

Shilo got dressed into her normal clothes: a green tank top with a pair of skinny jeans. Earlier before she went into the shower she had packed up all she thought she would need for the cruise. She then went downstairs grabbing herself a cereal bar.

"Bye Auntie and Uncle! Bye Cous!" Shilo says waving them off as she ran out the door with her suitcase and backpack.

~*~

April dropped the card when she saw her dad going into PTSD. "Dad?!" She dropped by his side grabbing his shoulders. "Dad it's okay. You and I are both safe right now." She says to him trying to calm him down.

[Electric]

"If those brain blobs sent us a personal invite, I say we go on their stinkin ship and kick their squishy buttss overboard" raph said slamming his fist into his open palm. True, he thought it was odd the Kraang were inviting them to anything at all, and it was most likely some kind of trap, but they were more than capable of handling them. Shell, they'd personally stopped their invasion, and Crushed them everytime since.

He had a feeling Leo would not be quite as willing though, and waited for the impending lecture on how this was a bad idea.

----


Karai was leaning on shredders throne.

"We all got them" she said tossing her letter down on the floor in front of them. She didn't know what to think of this. They'd allied with the aliens before, but it was always instigated by the foot out of sheer benefit, and never carried past what was absolutely necessary. An invitation to a cruise was completely out of place.

[Shiro Kame]

Shiro: I don't like this. I know the Kraang. Whenever they set a "legitimate business", it's usually a cover for something else. Like how TCRI is their home base and where they house the main portal. I don't see how a tourist trade business could cover or benefit them. They have to be up to something not good. I think it's a trap.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kirby breathed in and out slowly, calming down.

Kirby: I...I know, April... Just remembering my past encounters with the Kraang... *gets up* We're not going on that cruise... *picks up the tickets and throws them in the garbage* It has to be some trick to get a hold of you and hurt you again. I'm not chancing that ever happening.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mikey runs to Sensei, holding his letter and talking like a six-year-old high on sugar.

Mikey: Hey, Sensei! Guess what! The Kraang invited us on a cruise! Even you!

[Fang Wolf]

Splinter open his eyes when Mikey come in.
"That sound bad...if that come from Kraaang...so it bad."

[Metroid]

\_Shredder's Throne room

Rahzar nodded to Karai

"This smells fishy"
He growled as he read over his invitation again.

[Lethal Lullaby]

Kenny looked at his invitation and grinned. He was really hoping that they could go. It was already figured out in his head what he was going to wear. He pictured the fluffy pink scarf, black haltertop, and pink shorts.

Seeing the grin on his younger brother's face, Benjamin knew exactly what the purple haired teen was thinking. He narrowed his eyes at him slightly shaking his head, 'no'.

Benjamin then looked to Shredder. He was hoping that Shredder would decide otherwise and not have them attend some suspicious sounding cruise.

~*~

April watched her dad as he tossed away the invitations in the garbage. "I thought the Kraang would've been a bit smarter then that. Did they honestly think sending us an invitation on a cruise was going to have use go like, 'Oh boy a cruise! Sounds great!'" She asks and says sarcastically.

[Fang Wolf]

"Hm ... Splinter perhaps on the cruise ...
I want my revenge ....

We leave soon for the cruise..." Shredder says.

[Shiro Kame]

Mikey nods: Yeah....to bad. I really wanted to go on that cruise.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

Kirby smiled: Yeah, it's as if they're not even trying to lure us into a trap.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shiro sighs before leaving to pack, which could take a while.
