*nervously paces around the room*

Sensei, I'm a little worried about SC. No wait, I'm a little afraid of the "tricks up her sleeve." Do you think she'll be all right?

Splinter: Of course, child. She is strong and is very capable of taking care of herself.

If you say so, Sensei. I was just thinking about following her...

Splinter: No, my son. You should stay here. In case something comes for Machias, I may need your assistance. Now sit and join me in meditating. Pacing will do you no good.

Yes, Master Splinter.

*walks back to the couch and joins Splinter in meditating*

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-30-2002, 03:32 AM

*Meanwhile at a nearby cemetary Skeletoncrew is wandering among the crypts.*

Lets see...was it the one with the weeping angel on top of it, or the one with the wreath? Ahh...here it is!

*She digs in her pocket for a moment and pulls out a set of old-fashioned keys. Unlocking the door, she steps inside and lights a couple torches. She heads over to a full bookshelf and rumages for a moment.*

Ahh here it is! Necronomicon ex Mortis!

*begins flipping through pages*

Alright! Home defense...mumbles...looks like I'll need some damiana, dragonsblood...oooh...I'd better make a list!

*Skeletoncrew returns to the caves several hours later, finding Splinter and Azure still meditating. Not wanting to disturb them she heads off for a shower.*

~lost again

Nun sat and wondered how she managed to get stuck in the closet.

She remembered jumping in to hide when the whole Dinosaur thing blew up. She really should have checked before shutting the door. Now she was locked in! How long had she been in here? Embarrasment had stopped her from calling out, but now she was beginning to panic. What if she ran out of air?

She thumped her head back on the walls of the closet. "Nun you are such a stupid coward!"

"HELP ME, SOMEBODY! ANYBODY?"

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-30-2002, 01:56 PM

*hears cry for help and stops on the way to the shower*

Hmmm...that sounds like someone locked in a closet!

*find the closet and throws the door open yelling*

Friend or Foe?

*Nunchucker tumbles out on the floor*

Oh hi Nun! What were you doing in there? Say, are there any skeletons in there?

SeaThreePeeO · 03-30-2002, 03:10 PM

Nun untangled herself from the heap she had landed in. She flung her arms around SC's neck.

Oh thank you, thank you!

I got stuck in there when the whole Manchias, dinosaur thing happened. Some how I got locked in side! Is everything back to normal?

Nun finally released her death grip on SC.

<koff> *regains composure* Skeletons?

**Kali** · 03-30-2002, 03:29 PM

*Don walked up to Nun and SC* Hey, so this is where you got to. You both okay?

**Leo and Mike checked around the front entrance of the cave. They hadn't caught sight of anything suspicious yet.*

Mike: So, Leo, you gonna spill about your latest confrontation with Raph?

Leo: None of your business Mike. This is about your girlfriend, so keep focused.

Mike: Right. *he was silent for a few minutes* But what do you think about the Splinter angle?

*Leo turned and glared at Mike*

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-30-2002, 08:12 PM

Oh hi Don! We're fine. I've been out digging up some back-up for us, just in case. And apparently Nun got locked in this closet here.

Don: Ahhh.

*Looks at Nunchucker*

I was asking about skeletons because, well, you never know who might have skeletons in their closet!

*grins while Don and Nun groan*

Now, if you'll excuse me, I really do need take a shower.

*Both notice that SC has an awful lot of dirt on her, and that she was nice enough to take her shoes off at the front door.*

**azure turtle** · 03-30-2002, 10:06 PM

*finishes meditating and notices Nun and Don watching a dirty SC walk away*
Uh...dudes, what happened to her?
*stands up and joins Nun and Don*
Oh hey, Nun! Long time no see!

**Kali** · 03-30-2002, 11:14 PM

*Don smiled as Azure came over to them* Hey Azure. SC's been doing some dirty work. Though if it's skeletons she's looking for I think she should check out Kali's closet.

**azure turtle** · 03-30-2002, 11:27 PM

*snickers*
You better be glad she's not around to hear that comment, Don-san. Otherwise, you may end up locked in her closet.

Did you go on patrol with the others? Find anything interesting?

SeaThreePeeO · 03-31-2002, 06:25 AM

Why do I have the feeling I will hear closet jokes for a very long time now?

*Folds her arms and glares at Azure*

**Kali** · 03-31-2002, 10:34 AM

*Don clears his throat* Hey, we've all got secrets in our closets. Even you, blue dude. And to answer the question, no, I was not on patrol, I was checking up and upgrading the security systems. I found that quite a few sectors had been less than satisfactory, but I fixed that now. The others should be back from their patrols soon.

**azure turtle** · 03-31-2002, 10:31 PM

*sees Nun glaring at him and nervously laughs*
Uh...heh heh heh. And you're right, Don. Everyone's got secrets. Just don't go snooping into my closet any time soon!

Glad to hear that the security systems are a-okay. I hope the others are all right...

**Kali** · 03-31-2002, 11:05 PM

*At that moment Leo and Mike came in from outside. Mike is pestering Leo about something, but shuts up as soon as Splinter and the others are in sight*

Splinter: Anything?

Leo: Nothing that I could see.

*Kali and Raph come in from the back* We found something. *Kali hands Splinter a glass and metal canister* We found it attached to our water system. At least we know they didn't contaminate our water supply just to get it in here.

*Splinter frowns as he examines the container. He was expecting a label of some kind, but there was none* Whoever it was, they didn't want us tracking them down.

**azure turtle** · 04-01-2002, 01:09 AM

*scratches chin in thought*
So if they didn't plan on getting into the lair in the first place, then what did these "invaders" hope to accomplish by getting mutagen on Machias?

*Skeletoncrew* · 04-01-2002, 01:28 AM

*walks into the room wearing fresh clothes and a towel on the head*

Do we know for certain that the mutagen was intended for Machias? I do understand that someone is after her, but adding mutagen to the water system isn't exactly an effective way of targeting one person.

*Donatello begins to speak but Skeletoncrew interrupted him*

Wait. I just thought of something. Have we swept the area for surveilance devices? What if someone dumped that stuff into the water so they could sit back and observe its effect?

SeaThreePeeO · 04-01-2002, 09:13 AM

*Nun shivers*

That is an awful thought! Who would want to do such a thing?

**azure turtle** · 04-01-2002, 10:46 AM

Hmm...you've got a point, SC. Maybe Machias wasn't the intended target...maybe we were all targets. Perhaps we should do one more sweep of the area to make sure there's nothing "funky" going on...

**Kali** · 04-01-2002, 12:46 PM

*Leo shook his head* Perhaps, but Machias seemed convinced that someone was after her specifically.

Don: AND, that mutagen would only have effected her hybrid cells. It's wouldn't have done anything to the rest of us.

Still, they went through a lot of trouble. We better be on full alert to see that they don't succeed, whatever their plan is.

~I just figured out that I did somehow miss a full page! I couldn't read #32 for some reason...now that I have it explains a lot!~

Okay. I wasn't quite clear on that point. So why would someone have wanted to turn her into a full raptor? Were they hoping that she would attack the rest of the household? Or were they hoping to flush her out?

Don: If someone is trying to capture her it would be a LOT easier if she were out on her own.
