Machias' Punishment (split from FF.net restrictions)

[terran631]

*Takes a bite from the mango and hands Machias a four leaf clover*

I think you'll need this. I hear Splinter's looking for you over in General Discussion. Something about a water balloon????

[Machias Banshee]

Thank ye kindly! :D

*puts clover in her hair*

Oh dear, you didnt say anything to him, did you? I'm hiding here until its safe again...

[terran631]

Nah, I didn't tell him. Although hiding may be the worse thing you can do

[Machias Banshee]

Sp: Yes it is....

:teek:

Uh-oh....

[terran631]

*Offers half eaten mango to ticked off sensei and smiles innocently*

Mango, Splinter?

[enigma-1]

*appears* She's right. He's headed this way now. But you didn't hear it from me.

[Machias Banshee]

*Splinter looks at Enigma again before turning a stern eye towards Machias*

Oh, I'm in trouble, arent i?

[enigma-1]

*shrugs innocently* Well, you can't blame a girl for trying to warn a friend.

[terran631]

*To Machias*

Yup, you're in trouble all right.

*Splinter turns glare on Terran who chuckles nervously*

Hi, I'm new around here.

[Machias Banshee]

Sp: Yes, i had the feeling. welcome, terran...

*tries to slip out of thread*

Sp: Machias Banshee...

[enigma-1]

Oh boy. This is gonna be a long one, I can just feel it. :roll:

[terran631]

*Whispers to Enigma*

He used her full name?? I'm not sure I wanna witness this.

[Machias Banshee]

*Machias freezes and slowly turns around to meet a very angry Splinter*

Yes....?

[enigma-1]

Think we should go ahead and arrange a funeral?

[terran631]

Hmm....is there such a thing as mango blossoms? I'm sure they would look pretty on a casket.

Splinter: *to Machias* I would have thought you knew better than to hide from me...

[Machias Banshee]

I wasnt hiding, I was.....going for a walk? *nervous grin*

[enigma-1]

*thinks* Oh yeah. Like he's really gonna believe that one.

[Machias Banshee]

*thinks* ~There is NO way he's really gonna believe that one!!!~

[terran631]

*Splinter's eyes narrow even further*

Splinter: And to lie....

Yeah Machias. After the story you wrote, you'd think you'd know not to..uh oh...*Terran clamps hand over her mouth*

[enigma-1]

*sighs, shaking her head* Smooth move. I'll start arranging for the center pieces.

[terran631]

I'm sure they exist in some demension.

[Machias Banshee]

Shut Up, TERRAN!!!!!!

*gulp*

[enigma-1]

*thinks* Let me see. Yeah, in the fourth world from this one, they do have mango blossoms. Purple ones, but that'll work.

[Machias Banshee]

YOu guys are not helping the situation......

[enigma-1]

We're not the ones who made Splinter mad. You are, that's why he's here.

[terran631]

Heh..sorry. My mouth gets ahead of my brain sometimes.

Splinter: We can discuss the lie later. I want to know why I had to track you down.

[Machias Banshee]

*looks to Splinter nervously*

*thinks* ~I'm gonna die...~

I wont say anything for fear of making you more angry....

[enigma-1]

*sighs, thinking to herself* Primus, help me. I know I'm gonna regret this later.

*says something under her breath, then waits*

[terran631]

* To Enigma* Is whatever you're doing gonna make him more ticked off?

Splinter: I'm already angry. I still expect an answer to my question.

[enigma-1]

You might say that.

*hears the sound of thunder in the distance*

And here it comes now.

[terran631]

I want blue mango blossoms at my funeral

*cringes in wait*

[Machias Banshee]

*sighs* I let my anger get to me, and I acted rashly...

[terran631]

Splinter: *taps walking stick against his palm and says clamly* : Continue.

[enigma-1]

*cloud of dust approaches*

Um, maybe I should have reconsidered this.

*cloud stops when it's a dozen yards from the group, the dust clearing to reveal a small gray Naga laughing evilly*

[terran631]

Now you're reconsidering?!!
What is that thing?

[Machias Banshee]

*glares nervously at the walking stick and swallows*

I got angry with Kali reminding you of the katas...which i didnt perform.... and just lost control of myself...

[enigma-1]

*sighs* That's Cooler, one of my Nagas and the most evil little beast on the planet.

Cooler: *hisses, spotting the group*

[terran631]

*Splinter was about to say something else but looked over Machias's shoulder at the approaching Naga. Turns his glare on Enigma*

Splinter: Enigma..

[Machias Banshee]

*takes a breath during the distraction*

[enigma-1]

*shrugs nervously* Hey, it'll give you someone to yell at once you're done w/ Machias. Cooler doesn't listen to anyone, even me or his parents.

Cooler: I rule!

(hey, what do ya know. he mad at me for a change. g2g. post again later. bye)

[Machias Banshee]

(bye!)

*The naga sees enigma leaving, and quickly goes to follow her*

[terran631]

(See ya!!)

Splinter: *Turns back to Machias his face a little softer* Have I ever been so cruel to you that you would run from me? Even when you have done something wrong?


Whoa, talk about your guilt trips.

[Machias Banshee]

I wanted to behave better, really, but after not doing all the things you told me too, not to mention lying, I didnt want to face the consequences...

[terran631]

Splinter: *sighs* I would have been fair. We could have discussed the situation first and decided how best to proceed. Now you have compounded your troubles.


(Dang, you're really testing my "splinter" abilities tonight)

[Machias Banshee]

*she looked down at the ground, sighing sadly*

I know...

[terran631]

Splinter: Now we not only have to deal with you losing your temper, but now there is running and hiding from me and lying to me. I am at a loss as to what to do. I have never been so tested by any of my students.

[Machias Banshee]

Well, I know whatever punishments i get will be well deserved...thank god i'm too old for a spanking....

[Skeletoncrew]

*pops into thread* Nonsense! You're never too old for spanking!

*Gets a glare from Splinter.*

Uh, oh. See ya later!

*Runs out of thread*

Sp under breath: I'm going to have to do something about her...

[Machias Banshee]

*groans, but stifles it under Splinter's glare*

[terran631]

(I've read the things you've done. You must enjoy having Splinter angry with you. And who says you're too old???? :evilgrin: )


*Terran watches the exchange while still munching on a mango. Suddenly Raphael appears*

Raphael: What's goin on? She blow it again?

Splinter: You can start by meeting me tomorrow morning early for practice. We can discuss the rest of your punishment then.

Raphael: *chuckles*: Yeah she blew it.

[Machias Banshee]

Shut up Raph...*cringes under Splinter's *ahem** Yes sensei...


*The next morning...*

*Machias entered the dojo, bowing slightly. She felt the knot in her stomach tighten when she saw Splinter standing with his cane*

[terran631]

*Splinter smiles easily at her*

SP: You are right on time. We are going to start today by helping you control that temper of yours. I asked for some assistance.

*Raphael steps out with an evil grin*

SP: Raphael is going to give you your lesson today.

[Machias Banshee]

*she takes on the famous 'deer caught in the headlights' look*

No, I'm sorry Sensei, but anyone but Raphael. He literally beat me the last time i was in trouble....

[terran631]

*Splinter turns to Raphael puzzled*

SP: Beat you? I don't understand. What do you mean, beat you?

[Machias Banshee]

Uh...It's kind of embarassing...he--paddledmeforbeingreallyrudetohimandkali....

[terran631]

(Oh I remember. Couldn't remember if Splinter knew or not. Although I still think you should've got something from Donny for that birthday thing.)


Splinter *Glares at Raphael who looks as innocent as he possibly can and then turns back to Machias* Nevertheless, you are here today to learn to control your temper and Raphael is the best one for the job. Do not worry though. I am staying here to make sure Raphael does a good job.

*Hands his cane to Raphael* You may begin

[Machias Banshee]

*Her eyes practically fell out of her socket*

WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!

[terran631]

*Raphael chuckles evily and taps the stick on the ground*

Raph: Heh heh heh...ready to start warming up?

[Machias Banshee]

*she looked nervously to Master Splinter*

What's he gonna do?!

[terran631]

*Splinter shakes his head sadly from a chair on the sidelines*

SP: I am not the teacher in this class. Raphael is. Be respectful and address your questions to him.

Raphael: You can start with some laps around the dojo.

[Machias Banshee]

Oh, i cant believe this...

*she went to the side and started running around the perimeter of the dojo*

[terran631]

*Raphael runs along next to her taunting softly*

Raph: Come on, I know you can run faster than that. Whassamatter? Didn't eat your Wheaties this morning?

*Splinter shakes his head from the sidelines hoping that he's doing the right thing*

[Machias Banshee]

*she tried to focus on the direction in front of her, but her face grew more and more angry...*

[terran631]

*Fifteen minutes later....*

Raph: Okay you can stop now. Walk a lap or two to catch your breath and then drop down. You've got 2 minutes to do as many push-ups as you can. And you better at least hit one hundred.

[Machias Banshee]

*Mutters under breath, which she's still trying to catch*

I'd like to see you do that many pushups, jerk...

*she drops to the floor and starts pushups, knowing she'll be lucky to make it to 50...*

[terran631]

*Raphael checks his watch*

Raph: Times up. I don't think you made it to one hundred. You'll get another chance at the end of practice today.
*He barely contains a chuckle and steps out onto the mats* Come here.

*Splinter leans forward intently*

[Machias Banshee]

*half dead, she gets up off the floor and walks onto the mat. She wonders why Splinter is leaning forward, but snaps back to attention*

Yes...Sempai

[terran631]

*Raphael folds his arms and grins at the term of address. She was certainly being more respectful than he would have been in her position*

Raph: I wanna find out what you know already.

*Without warning he reached out with the cane and sweeped at her feet*

[Machias Banshee]

*She hit the floor hard, and swore to herself.*

You know, i've not had that many classes with Sensei, you know....

[terran631]

(Sempai means senior student or something such as right? My martial art is Korean not Japanese so the terminology is different)

*Raphael looked down at her*

Raph: There's no room for excuses in the dojo. *He offered her a hand up* You don't know how to fall. Roll onto your side more and don't hit your head this time. Try again. *He swept her feet out from under her again*

[Machias Banshee]

*She fell again, not as bad though, and avoided hitting her head*

[terran631]

(heh heh, I wouldn't call Raphael Sensei, but that's just me. :) )


*Fifteen minutes and several falls and bruises later Raphael stops knocking Machias down*

Raph: Time to warm up again. Start running.

[Machias Banshee]

*She was getting fed up with his continual abuse, so she did her laps at her normal pace*

[terran631]

*Splinter was proud of Machias for the way in which she was handling her temper. Normally if one of his students taught another he would not let them be so harsh. But this was punishment for Machias and it looked like she was learning her lesson well.*

Raph: What katas do you know? *He wondered if she could talk being out of breath and still running*

[Machias Banshee]

I know...a couple...Is that...okay...with you?! *She panted* She was really getting fed up with his patronizing, and it started to show.*

[terran631]

*Raphael's eyes narrowed in as close an immitation of Splinter's ticked off look as he could manage*

Raph: You can stop running now. *He walked slowly over to her* Would you care to repeat your last comment?

*Splinter stood ready to intervene if necessary*

[Machias Banshee]

No, i'd rather not, Sempai... *she said the title in a sarcastic tone*

[terran631]

*Raphael glares at her and brings the cane up to rap her soundly on the head.*

Raph: I don't like your tone.

Splinter: *Warningly*: Raphael

[Machias Banshee]

F***!
*She ducked after the strike, and reflexively punched him*

[terran631]

*Splinter quickly got in between them before Raphael could strike back*

Raph: You stupid....

Splinter: Raphael! I instructed you not to strike her. *He turns to Machias and places a hand on her shoulder* I am proud of you daughter. You were doing quite a good job at keeping your temper.

[Machias Banshee]

*She glared daggers at Splinter before stepping away...*

Why the hell am i learning from a Guy who can't even control HIS temper!?

[terran631]

Splinter: I know Raphael antagonizes you the most and you do the same to him. It was a lesson for both of you in keeping your temper. Machias, people will anger you. You must learn self control and you took a step towards that today.
And as an upside because you now know how to fall correctly, I can begin teaching you more difficult manuevers.

*He turned to Raphael*

As for Raphael, he just gave me my agenda for his own training session today.

[Machias Banshee]

*Machias dropped to her knees, paused, and knelt at Splinter's feet*

*sigh* I am sorry, Sensei...

[terran631]

*Splinter placed a hand on her head*

SP: You're forgiven, Child. And I am proud of you. *Smiles* Although, this does not get you off the hook for lying to me or hiding from me.

Raphael: Heh. Busted.

[Machias Banshee]

*sigh* I know i did wrong, so i know i deserve your harshest punishment...

[terran631]

*Splinter blinked in surprise not quite sure what she was talking about. To Raphael*

SP: Raphael, please excuse us. You and I will talk later during your lesson.

*Raphael looking a bit disappointed walked out*

Raph: Heh, good luck. You'll need it.

SP: *To Machias*: To what punishment are you referring, My daughter?

(Maybe Skeletoncrew should roleplay Splinter and hand out this punishment.)

[Machias Banshee]

I did you a great wrong in deceiving you, so i deserve your strictest discipline...

[terran631]

*Splinter sighs*

SP: I will have to think on this, Machias. It had been many years since I've had to deal with being lied to. And in this case I do not believe that punishment would be...appropriate. Stand up, please. Why don't you go take a shower and change your clothes. You are quite sweaty from your workout. After that you and I can sit and discuss an appropriate punishment.


(I still think I should let Skeletoncrew handle this!!!)

[Machias Banshee]

((there's no way i'd EVER let SC do that to me anyways!))

*Silently, She stood up and did as she was told. A little while later, she came to the entrance of the dojo and waited.*

[terran631]

(LOL...temper, temper. I would never do something like that to you. But I think I'll let you stew for a little while longer. I gotta go for the night. )

[Machias Banshee]

(( :P :lol: see you later! ))

[enigma-1]

*reappears, bearing bandages on her arms* Hey, what's up now?

[terran631]

*appears next to Enigma*

Ummm...looks like Machias has thrown herself on the mercy of the court.
What happened to your arm?

[Machias Banshee]

(hmm, must have been cooler...)

*She tensed as she saw Splinter sitting in the dojo, seemingly in deep thought. She coughed softly, and froze*

[terran631]

(Vicious little creatures aren't they?)

SP: Come in, Machias. Sit down.

[Machias Banshee]

*She walked in silently, and knelt on the floor before him, watching his face wrinkle in thought.*

[terran631]

SP: I have given this a great deal of thought, My Daughter. But I wish to hear your thoughts first. You have promised to stay out of trouble but you are finding that harder than you realized. What can I do to help you keep your promise?

[Machias Banshee]

*Hmph* I dont think ANYthing will help me, not even if you talked to the Fates...I guess i just get too caught up with the others. I used to be better, but then i got, like, corrupted or something...*sigh* Its up to me, I just cant seem to do it yet.

*She paused, looking down at her hands, and then gave a lopsided grin*

Having Raph torment me didnt exactly help my anger either...

[terran631]

SP: *chuckles*: Perhaps not, but you handled yourself quite admirably. *Thoughtfully* Your session with Raphael was punishment enough for getting yourself "caught up" in the mischief with the others and for losing your temper. But *He gives her "The Look"* I do not like being deceived. I must be able to trust my students. How should we handle that situation?

[Machias Banshee]

*She shrank under his look and shrugged* I dont know, I honestly dont know....

[terran631]

(Why do you say that)

SP: *sighs* No matter what the punishment, you must work to now win back my trust. That will not be easy. *He thinks for a moment* Therefore, I leave it to you. You are old enough to decide the consequences of your actions in this situation and I leave the punishment to you. I am 'trusting' you to think of something appropriate. I will give you to the end of the day. You are dismissed.

(Heh heh you gotta hate me :D . And I gotta go. Be back later)

[Kali]

((I decided to split this into it's own thread. Continue on.))

[Machias Banshee]

(Oh geez, its a new thread now! Grr, you ARE evil! Lol, see you later...*walks away grumbling* what the heck am i gonna do now?)

[Skeletoncrew]

((I'm so flattered that my name was mentioned when doling out punishements was discussed! :evilgrin: ))

[Tinselcat]

*pops head in* did someone say "punishments"?

[Kameko]

((( :P Machias got in trouble! Machias got in trouble! :tlol: It's a habit with you, isn't it? :wink: )))

[HorseTechie]

(( scary to see how they pass their time, no? :lol: Reminds me of that one fic Leah-nardo wrote, where Raph was training her Mary Sue char, with equally strict standards. ))

[terran631]

(LOL! You gotta admit Kali picked a real attention getting title for this thread.)

*notices Machias dejected look as she leaves the dojo*

That bad huh?

[Machias Banshee]

Aww, man......I knew that would attract the likes of TC and SC.... :goofygri:

If anyone EVER tries to do THAT type of punishng to me, *waves fist of Death* I'll take my revenge!!!

[azure turtle]

(( Oh yes, plenty of attention! It's even caught my interest! :evilgrin: Omigosh!! Terran, I didn't realize you've come back to the forums! Welcome back! I see you're already having lots of fun. *snicker* ))

[HorseTechie]

Aww, man......I knew that would attract the likes of TC and SC.... :goofygri:

If anyone EVER tries to do THAT type of punishng to me, *waves fist of Death* I'll take my revenge!!!
*looks down at spurs and lunge whip* Awww man..... :goofygri:

[Machias Banshee]

:teek:


*looks at Azure* I'm STILL in trouble for your bandanna, if i'm not mistaken....

Well, now i gotta figure out a punishment for myself, or who knows what Splinter's gonna give (or do) to me...

[HorseTechie]

what...? Are you a glutton? Six pages of torture has gone by, and you;re still looking for more?

[Machias Banshee]

I'm Not LOOKING for it!!! i just cant think of anyting...hmm, maybe i'll go clean my room or something--NO, I cant do that. *sigh* I've lost Splinter's trust in me, and i have to find a way to earn it back....

*sits in the corner to think*

[terran631]

(*waves to Azure*

Yeah I'm back. For like two months I couldn't log on to the forums. I tried everything short of tossing the computer out the window. But I was having fun torturing or eh watching Splinter torture Machias.)

*sees Machias sitting in a corner*

You're gonna hurt yourself thinking that hard.

[Machias Banshee]

Nuh uh! its from the stress of the situation! NOw i have Azure and Nturtle on a rampage after me for hte death of their MrRules book, and Martin the talking bag of sawdust. If word of that reaches here...

[terran631]

Hmm...maybe if you confess Splinter'll let you off with your life. Hey, it may prove he can trust you again if you bust yourself instead of letting him hear it through the grapevine.

[Machias Banshee]

Thats it! I'll show that i cna be trusted to tell him the truth, even when i know i'm gonna get in trouble for it...NOw i just have to find splinter before they do...

[terran631]

*Meanwhile Splinter is watching Raphael and Michaelangelo spar to finish their training session for the day. Both are exhausted but Raphael more so after being tortured as much by Splinter as he tortured Machias.*

Splinter *To himself*: Why am I getting an uneasy feeling that my other students have been up to mischief again?

[Machias Banshee]

((Jeez, he knows me too well....Man, i wish i could have seen Raph lessons :evilgrin: ))

*Machias looked around her nervously before approaching the dojo. she bowed quickly before stepping inside*

[terran631]

(That you've been up to mischief?? Doesn't take a psychic to know that. You thrive on it. :) )

Sp: *looks up at Machias's approach and starts to smile until he sees her nervous look* Please tell me that you have not been causing more trouble....

*Mike and Raph both stop sparring and chuckle*

[Machias Banshee]

*she blushes at the sound of Raph and Mike chuckle and looks back to Splinter*

It was an accident...really....I placed Azure's and Nturtle's items in close proximity to the bonfire, and they burnt to a crisp...

[terran631]

(Accident my eye :lol: )


Sp: *frowns*: What items and where are Azure and Nturtle now?

[enigma-1]

Last time I checked, Azure was on top of a pyramid and Nturtle was heading for that vent shaft again.

[Machias Banshee]

Um...*hopes that NO ONE SAYS THAT SHE DID IT DELIBERATELY!!!* it was on old book and a bean bag of some sorts...

[terran631]

*Splinter looks over at Enigma who appeared out of nowhere and nods a thank you. Then he glares at Machias as if trying to see through her*

SP: Tell me, how is it that you came into possession of these items and "accidently" got them too close to a bonfire.

[enigma-1]

Correction on that. They're both in a shaft, looking for Machias.

[terran631]

Sp *sighs and can feel a headache coming on*: Perhaps if we can get Azure and Nturtle here, then I can find out just what is going on.

Raph: Kind of obvious isn't it? She screwed up again.

Mike: Leave her alone, Raph.

[Machias Banshee]

*glares at Raph*

Youre not exactly the perfect being either, Raph...

[terran631]

Splinter: *glares at Raphael*: I did not tell you to stop sparring.

[Machias Banshee]

Raph/Mike: Sorry, Sensei...*they dropped to do twenty-five pushups before continuing their sparring match.*

[terran631]

Splinter *Turns back to Machias and takes a deep breath* : Now, how did you come into possession of these items and "accidently" incinerate them?

[Machias Banshee]

well, they just kinda left them on the ground in the middle of nowhere, and then Enigma said to set them really near the fire... I wasnt too keen on it, so i set them on the table near the bonfire. I didnt realize how volatile their things were til i saw them...uh--explode....

[terran631]

SP: *nods* : Very well, when Azure and Nturtle get here, we can try to rectify the situation. Raphael, Michaelangelo, you're dismissed. Machias and I have something else to discuss.

[Machias Banshee]

s-something...else?

[terran631]

SP: Sit, My Child. I am curious if you have decided on a suitable punishment for yourself for your earlier deceit and flight?

[enigma-1]

WHAT!? :x

In case you forgot, Machias, I didn't make you do anything. I considered something similar, but I didn't do anything.

*glares and vanishes*

[Machias Banshee]

*BIG EDIT!*

Um... *sweatdrop* oh dear...

[enigma-1]

*reappears, tapping her foot and looking more than a little PO'd* What can I say? I don't like things being pinned on me.

*disappears again*

[terran631]

(geez Machias if you're gonna bust yourself at least tell the whole truth!! :) )

[Machias Banshee]

*drops her head to the floor, trying to bang it*

[enigma-1]

*reappears again, actually looking calm this time*

[Machias Banshee]

*She looks back up, tears welling heavily in her eyes*

what else have you come to throw at me?!

*She runs out of the room, trying to hold back the flooding waters of her eyes*

[enigma-1]

Oh boy. :roll:

*calls after her* I didn't come back to yell at you. I came to help.

[terran631]

Sp: *sighs and looks up at Enigma*: Perhaps we should follow her and straighten this out?

*Mike was minding his own business eavesdropping when the blur that was Machias flies by him*

Mike: Whoa. Hey, Machias. Where's the fire?

[Machias Banshee]

Leave me alone! Dont talk to me unless you want something to happen to get you disowned!!!

[terran631]

Mike: *laughs* I can do that on my own. I don't need help. *puts his arms around her* Hey, it can't be that bad.

[Machias Banshee]

*She looked at him sadly, before removing his arm*

I haveto go...now. *she turned and left him...*

[terran631]

(Boy when it rains it pours don't it)

*Splinter watches Machias walk away from Michaelangelo and calls out to her*

SP: *looks at her softly* Machias. Please, we must talk.

[Machias Banshee]

*she kept her back turned, trying to dry her face*
No...you dont want a liar like me around...

[terran631]

Sp: *smiles gently*: I do not believe you to be a liar, Child. And I could not imagine not having you around. Please, come back here so that we can talk.

[Machias Banshee]

*She shook her head, talking out loud to herself*
I try...I try so hard...why does this happen to me-e-e-e-e...
*her last words crumble, and she breaks down, crumpling to the floor*

[terran631]

( :cry: )


*Splinter kneels next to her and puts a comforting hand on her head*
SP: I am here, My Daughter. Cry all you need to and then when you are done, I will still be here.

(Ah! Dang hormones!!!)

[Machias Banshee]

*she spun around slowly, and leaned into him, staining the front of his kimono with her tears*

(Oh jeez, now i'm crying! Never do this while listening to sappy music! Gnad hormones!!!)

[terran631]

(And the Academy Award for the best dramatic scene done with a four foot rat goes to.....)

Splinter *gently rubs her back trying to calm her down* Do you think that you are the only one of my students to give me headaches?

[Machias Banshee]

*She sniffed, and tried to push her hair out of her face, her eys red and flooding still...*

I dont give you headaches...I give you migraines...

[terran631]

SP: *smiles*: Perhaps. Sometimes. But I wouldn't honestly trade you or any of my students for anything. I may become angry with you, but that doesn't change how much I care for you. No matter what you have done.

[Machias Banshee]

*She curls up, sitting sideways in front of him, wiping her eyes.*
But how...how do you still trust me, even after ALL the trouble and lying i've done to you...? I dont deserve your love...

[terran631]

Sp: *looks at her seriously* Trust is a fragile thing and once broken it must be earned back. But the love I feel for all of you, is yours forever. You do not have to do anything to deserve it or to keep it. You must not worry that it will disappear because it never will.


(See I told you I was writing all mushy stuff! 2 months and 15 days to go!!!!!!!!)

[Machias Banshee]

I dont deserve anything from you except your anger...I lied to you-purposefully...I had no legitimate reason, i was just scared to accept the consequences. *she buried her face in her hands again, shaking uncontrollably* You have to hate me...you have to....

[Nturtle]

ARGH!!!! *charges in with peanuts and tofu* is this the thread? *sees Machias* You!!!! You evil 2 timing reptile!!!

[Machias Banshee]

*Machias screeched in shock, and skidded herself away from him, slamming into the back wall. she hit the floor, cowering*

I'm sorry...I'm so sorry...!

[terran631]

*Splinter stands quickly to get himself in between Machias and her attacker.*

Splinter: What is the meaning of this?

[Machias Banshee]

*Machias felt like she couldnt breathe from the sudden shock. She stayed still, hands over her head, tail curled up beside her*

[terran631]

*Terran munches on popcorn from the sideline. Dang, this is really getting good now.*

[Machias Banshee]

*Mike strolls up beside her*

Mike: Ben and Jerry's and Dills, madame?

[terran631]

* :lol: No thanks. I gotta try to keep my weight at a somewhat respectable number*

[Machias Banshee]

*Raph and Leo look at them evilly*

Raph: Hey, we're trying to watch a soap opera here!

[terran631]

Terran/Mike: Sorry

Mike: Uh..but speaking of which, where did the homicidal attacker disappear to?

Leo *grins at his brother*: I dunno. Hey, Raphael, you wanna stand in for him?

[Machias Banshee]

Raph: Eh why not, I'd enjoy traumatizing Machias... :evilgrin:

[terran631]

Splinter: You have done that too much already I should think.

*Terran offers the traumatized Machias some popcorn*
Well, speaking of Raphael and traumatized...how goes the new fic?

Raphael *mutters*: shut up, Terran

[Machias Banshee]

*Doesnt answer, just staggered breathing, and whimpering*

[terran631]

(Um...do we pretend he disappeared into thin air?)

[Machias Banshee]

((Um...he struck hard, and faded away...?))

[terran631]

(Ok..where were we...)

Sp:*goes over to where Machias is cowered against the wall and draws her closer to him*: Am I to assume this was Nturtle? One of the people you angered?

[Machias Banshee]

*she clung to him like seaweed to a rock (nice simile, huh?), hyperventil-sobbing*

Oh my God Oh my God, he's SO mad at me...!

[terran631]

(like seaweed to a rock huh? I'll just bet anyone who reads that won't have a hard time extracting some perverse connotation from it. IE: TC...Kali???)


SP: Yes that appears to be an understatement. You've gotten yourself into quite a dilemma this time.

[Machias Banshee]

*she sat on her legs, tryng to rub the hurt out of her eyes*

Everyone's mad at me...I should just leave--I cant DO this anymore...!

[terran631]

(I thought that was a requirement for this forum)

Splinter: *a bit sternly*: You are one of my students, Machias. And my students do not run from their troubles.

[Nturtle]

(sorry about dissapearing :embarass: )
Well if YOU hadn't BURNT Mr.Rules book and Azure's bag of sawdust then you could of stayed out of trouble!!!! But nooooooo!! You had to pick them up while they were playing with each other and kill them!!!!!!! :flaming: NOW DIE!!! *raises tofu to whack Machias with* :x

[Machias Banshee]

YOU DONT HAVE EVERYONE PUTTING YOU ON THEIR SH*T LIST!!! *she almost shouted, trying hard to control her breathing*

Everytime i think its getting better, something else comes up to screw me over! *her lower jaw trembled, and her eyes were now deep red. She looked down to hte floor, trying to regain her bearings...*

[terran631]

(heh no problem)

Splinter: *raises his walking stick to block Nturtle's strike and pushes him back*: Enough of this! It will solve nothing!

[Machias Banshee]

*She dropped from his range, almost resting her chest on the floor, squeezing her eyes shut.*

[Nturtle]

But she burnt up Mr.Rules book!!! *sniff* :cry:

[terran631]

*Splinter lowers his walking stick slowly*

SP: What is or was Mr.Rules Book?

[Nturtle]

he was my best friend!!!! and she also burnt up Azure's best friend too!!!! :cry:

[Machias Banshee]

*She didnt move from her spot on the floor, dreading what Nturtle was about to say...*

[Nturtle]

and she said they couldn't talk!!!! WAAAAHHHHAAA!!!! *bursts into tears*

[terran631]

Splinter *stares down at Machias in disbelief*: You burned live people?

[Machias Banshee]

*she was speechless*

They werent alive! I swear!

[Nturtle]

They were too!!! shes evil I tell you!!!! :x

[Machias Banshee]

*she looked up at Nturtle from her position on the floor*

A bag of sawdust and a book?!

[terran631]

*Splinter shook his head wondering when he fell down Alice's rabbit hole.*

SP: They were not alive? These were.. objects that Azure and Nturtle say spoke to them?

[Machias Banshee]

*She looked up at Splinter, shaking her head*
I think its the mangoes talking, or something!!! They've lost it completely!

[Nturtle]

have not!!! have not!! *stamps up and down* They were too alive Sensai!! We left them to play together and when we came back Machias burnt them alive!!!!! They may LOOK like a book and a bag of sawdust but thier real!!!! :x

[Machias Banshee]

You live a sad existence, Nturtle...

[Nturtle]

HEY!!! there she goes again!!!! :x so what if YOU don't have a best friend I DID!!!!!

[terran631]

Sp: Machias! You are in enough trouble already. You may want to hold your temper. *turns back to Nturtle* I'm assuming these friends can not be replaced in any way...so I ask you Nturtle, how would you like this situation to be dealt with. And violence in this case is not the answer.

[Machias Banshee]

*She quickly held her tongue, regretting her comment*

[Nturtle]

awww..... *puts down Peanuts and tofu* :(

[Machias Banshee]

*She uses her mental abilities to zap a message to Nturtle's mind*

~You cant say physical discipline either...!~

[terran631]

(Hmm..I've never been attacked with peanuts and tofu before :) )

SP: Thank you, Nturtle for being reasonable. I will let you and Azure have a say in how Machias is dealt with seeing as how she wronged you. How can we solve this problem?

[Machias Banshee]

((*snicker* You'd probably eat them all!))

[Nturtle]

(thier very effective! :P )
hmmmm... we could burn her best friend :evil:

[terran631]

(I resent that!! Humph! I bet Splinter still has a paddle left over from when the turtles were younger :evilgrin: )


SP: *to Nturtle*: Um..I would say that would be considered violent. Any other suggestions. You do not have to decide now.

[Machias Banshee]

NO, cuz, unlike yours, Mine is a living being...

[Nturtle]

Mr.Rules book was alive too!!!!! :x

[terran631]

SP: Machias, you were in the wrong here regardless of your feeling towards their friends and Nturtle, I'm afraid you will have to come up with a...different solution.

[Machias Banshee]

*she laid her head back onto the floor, knowing it was only a matter of time gbefore things would get crazy...*

[terran631]

(heh heh...you just watch your comments or you'll find out...... :) )


SP: *sighs* Everything will be fine, Machias.

[Nturtle]

well then I want Mr.Rules book back!!!! :x

[Machias Banshee]

*She sat back up, her head unwilling to let her eyes leave the floor. She was in for it, big time, and everyne was going to inevitably find out...*

[terran631]

SP: *to Nturtle* :Is that possible? To get him back? Or to get a...new one??

[Nturtle]

*reading Machias's thoughts because she forgot to turn off her thought zapper* finds out what???? :evil:

[terran631]

( :lol: Busted again!!! Terran grabs the pickles Mike offered earlier)

[Machias Banshee]

(That my a$$ is grass, and Splinter is the lawnmower!))

Huh? I didnt say anything...

[terran631]

(My parents used to say that to me...well something similar anyway)

[Nturtle]

~ok what did ya do now!!!~

SP: :blanksta:

[Machias Banshee]

((Oh boy...I'm in trouble when i sound like YOUR parents... :D ))

[terran631]

(Ohhh boy, I'm confused now.)

SP: Machias, is there anything else you have to tell me before a punishment is decided?

[Nturtle]

~hey!!! you better give Mr.Rules book back or you'll be in even bigger trouble then for whatever you did!! :x ~

[terran631]

( What's that supposed to mean??? *Tosses jar of pickles to Leo and storms out to make sure Splinter's paddle is in a very obvious place where he can easily reach it*)

[Machias Banshee]

Just that i am very sorry...
*she got up and dusted herself off, standing nervously beside Splinter*

[terran631]

SP: *to Nturtle*: Machias is going to make this up to you and Azure somehow. If there is any way of replacing Mr.Rules book, she will do it. If she can not, then she owes you a great debt if you can forgive her.

[Machias Banshee]

((Oh man! Youre joking, right?!))

[terran631]

(*Starts throwing out old junk from a box in a storage room.* It's gotta be here somewhere

Raphael: *holds up a small wooden paddle*: Looking for this?)

[Machias Banshee]

((NO!!!!As long as its not displayed publicly, i guess...))

[enigma-1]

Oh boy. I have a feeling that this is never going to end.

[terran631]

(*follows Raphael to Splinter's study*

Raphael: It used to be hanging up in here. *he puts it on a nail in the wall*

*Giggles* Excellent. *waves* Hey Enigma!!)

[Machias Banshee]

((Hmph, so much for "I wouldnt do that to you..."))

[terran631]

(Hmmm...you've gotta point there I did say that didn't I??? Well, I'm not gonna do anything. Splinter would. :) )

[enigma-1]

Hi Terran. OBTW, Machias. I forgot to give these to you earlier. I'm still a bit annoyed, but I still don't like to see a friend get into trouble.

*holds out a bag and a book*

[Machias Banshee]

((And I'M the two facer...!))

[enigma-1]

( :roll: )

[terran631]

(*sighs* Alright, alright. You got a point. *Takes paddle down and hands it back to Raphael* Go on and put it back where you got it.

Raphael: Wuss

Terran: Shut up. Where did you find that anyway?

Raph: *walks out and calls over his shoulder* Donny's room.)

[Machias Banshee]

((I Still dont trust you...))

[enigma-1]

*taps her foot* Hey, you want this stuff or not?

[Machias Banshee]

*sigh* Dont even bother. NTurtle and Azure will be happy, but i will still have to face Splinter for the lying offences...

[terran631]

Sp: *To Machias*: These objects that Enigma gave you..are they the ones supposedly destroyed?

[Machias Banshee]

they cant be...I saw them burn, i saw the ashes fly!

[enigma-1]

*blushes a little, her metallic skin turning gray* Um, technically, they are the things that burned. But I... Never mind. I just got them so you wouldn't be in so much trouble anymore.

*hands them over* I'm still a little upset myself, but I'll forgive you. I don't like seeing a friend so upset like you were earlier.

[Machias Banshee]

It still doesnt change the fact that i destroyed, pillaged, lied and hid from the truth...

[terran631]

SP *a bit sadly*: No, it does not. However, I am sure Nturtle and Azure will be quite happy their "friends" are being returned.

[enigma-1]

*shrugs, not knowing what else to say* Well, I guess I could always take the lumps w/ you. I mean, part of this is my fault if you think abou it.

[Machias Banshee]

*she knelt on the ground, trying jto clear hermind. So mauch had happened. She had hurt so many. There was no excuse for what she had done, and she knew it.*

No, I did the wrong, I will take the consequences for them....

[enigma-1]

*tries to think of something else to say but is at a loss*

[Machias Banshee]

*Slowly, she turned to Splinter and frowned sadly.*

Do what needs to be done...

[enigma-1]

*wonders exactly what that means, but says nothing*

[terran631]

(paddle? what paddle?)

SP: *to Enigma* It is very honorable of you to accept the consequences for your part in this. But I am afraid this time I do not have all the answers. *speaking to both culprits* For your acts toward Azure and Nturtle I would suggest you both apologize and do whatever you can to make it right. But the lying...I still do not know. what to do about that.

[Machias Banshee]

But Enigma didnt lie, i did. She shouldnt be any more at fault than you are...
