'Finding Home'

[Jade Green]

The sound of the sirens grew in volume, the police were getting closer; but Raphael took the time to knock down the last of the purple dragons before Leonardo shouted, “Ninja vanish!” All four figures melted into the shadows moments before red and blue-lit cars screeched to a halt in front of the pile of unconscious goons.

There had to be more to life than this.

On a roof not too far away, Donatello watched the scene along with his brothers. The police were able to pack away most of the beaten up gang into two black and white vans; however, the sounds of a different sort of siren told the turtle that some of them needed medical attention. He heaved a deep sigh and looked to his brothers.

There had to be more to life than this.

Raphael, the psycho of the group, was staring up at the smoggy sky. Even on a clear day the stars were barely, if even, visible. There was too much pollution, too much trash, too many people and not enough nature. He stretched his arms, interlocked his fingers and rested them just under the knot of his blood colored mask.

There had to be more to life than this.

Green toes hugged the edge of the old building as Michaelangelo stood facing the way opposite the crime seen. He was eager to leave, to go back home and maybe play some games or read a comic. Those heroes had it good. They were feared and loved, recognized for their good deeds while the turtles’ work went unnoticed.

There had to be more to life than this.

“Let’s go home.” Leonardo spoke softly and his brothers nodded in agreement. They headed off towards the direction of home, using every trick in the book as the moved from rooftop to rooftop. The sound of shouts up ahead forced them to halt their progress. Donatello wasn’t completely sure, but the shouting sounded somewhat like military jargon.

“What’s goin’ on?” Michaelangelo asked.

His question was immediately answered by a figure clad in a long black coat and fedora landing a few feet away from them. The person stood up, letting out a sharp curse and giving away their gender: a woman. From inside her coat, the woman pulled out a pair of guns and aimed them at the turtles. They only had enough time to pull out their weapons before the woman instead turned to the way she had come and began to fire.

Leonardo was confused until he realized, much to his disdain, that they were surrounded! Strange looking bottles scattered at their feet. “Ninja scatter!” His words came a moment too late, the sleeping gas had already taken his brothers and he was falling under its power as well…

The turtles and taken away and placed into cells two by two while the unknown woman got a cell of her own. They would be miles in the air before any of them woke up.

Alright. As you can see, the turtles and -- you guessed it -- Graysight have been captured. By whom? The Mutant Militia. They are going to be taken back to the Benning Islands. A covert mutant country located in the Pacific Ocean.
The islands are a diverse place. Mutants and humans walk freely and are citizens. The government is democratic and they Mutant Militia is the the countrie's military system.

If you play a fan based character, I ask that they do NOT know the turtles. Your character can already be on the islands or maybe they were discovered during the huntdown of Graysight...
