Randi blinked at Leonardo, 'Okay,' She thought, 'they're obviously not from them... this is good.' Her pupil's, that had been normal, dialated to an impossible size for a moment before retracting to two small dots before returning normal. With a deep sigh, she put away her guns, "Its the other way around... uh..." She gave Raphael a questioning look, not wanting to search his mind for his name. "I-I'm... Randi..."

Leonardo relaxed a little. "I'm Leonardo, and these are my brothers, Raphael and Donatello," he said, gesturing to them as he said their names. "And this is Oni."

Oni gave a little nod. So much for that idea...

"Now," Leo said. "You mind telling us what you're doing down here?"

BlitzTurtle · 12-22-2001, 10:03 PM

Randi frowned, "Prolly the same reason why you are down here, Mr. Da Vinci." She crossed her arms, "To keep out of site from the... Human population."

**Kali** · 12-22-2001, 10:11 PM

Leo had to fight the urge to glare at her. "Okay, but why at full speed, hmm?"

Oni looked over Leo's shoulder. "Was that you I heard screaming?"

Dr. Terminus · 12-22-2001, 11:58 PM

I heard the scream to.

The Rat King · 12-23-2001, 10:43 AM

The sewers are brimming with more activity than normal. The sounds of many footsteps have echoed and sloshed through the numerous areas. That, and the fact that the sewers are a vast place, there were certainly many steps which were probably unheard by the hear.

But there are also eyes.

Eyes that take in every occurence in these murky metropolitan depths. One pair of these eyes takes a few sniffs. A moment later, a group of a dozen darkly-clad individuals almost silnetly whips their way through the much. Satisfied that the immediate danger is gone, the creature gets up on its haunches, taking a few more sniffs. It is just an ordinary sewer rat, with fur as black as the darkness it sits enshrouded in. In another moment it is off, scurrying down one of the sewer tunnels.

The rat meets up with another rat and relays what it had seen before returning to its post. The new relay rat now carries the message to a few more, from there, the message spreads like wildfire.

*Intruders in the master's domain!*

In one of the deepest, most secluded areas of the Manhattan sewer system, a man sits in relative solitude. It had taken him a good many years to find just the perfect place to establish his kingdom, but since he had, he had gone relatively undisturbed ever since. The only company he now enjoys is that of his rodent companions. He has a rapport with them that is unexplainable by modern science. He is their king. The Rat King.

Soon the pensive creatures are in quite a state of anxiety as the message of intruders has quickly made its way back to the center of the rat kingdom. The King sits on a makeshift throne of old plywood and various gold and jewels that have been seemingly lost in the sewer system. He wears a tattered cape that also has similar baubles sewn into it very crudely. He himself is covered with a similar black fur, like that of his rats. It is not real though, and his all too human head, fingers and toes poke out of their respective areas. His head and other parts of the attire are partly wrapped in old bandages. One of the rats climbs across a pipeline and onto the king's shoulder. He frowns, curious as to what exactly is the cause of his friends nervousness. The lone rat tells him of the new intruders within the sewer depths.

"Intruders are not uncommon." The Rat king says calmly. "But we cannot simply let every one who winds their way down here leave without paying a tax...now can we?"

A grin spreads across his face as he tosses his cape to the side and proceeds through one of the rear exits of his lair.

BlitzTurtle · 12-23-2001, 12:34 PM

"Me? Scream?" Randi shook her head, "No, I didn't scream," She lied and added, "and my reasons for running are none of your concern."

**HorseTechie** · 12-23-2001, 12:46 PM

Raph looked at Randi dubiously. At least Oni sounded way more truthful about her purpose here. "Yeah, right... it was a sewer rat instead, huh?"

BlitzTurtle · 12-23-2001, 12:54 PM

Randi frowned at him and then shook her head, "Look," She said as she began to walk in the direction that she had been headed in before she collided with Leonardo, "I really can't stay in one place for long..." She turned and began walking backwards to face them, "Soo, I'll be quick and tell ya what you really need to know: If you see uniformed mutants running around... feel free to kill 'em, ciao!" She then turned to run.

**Kali** · 12-23-2001, 02:10 PM

"Excuse me!?!" Leo ran to Randi and stood in front of her. "You mind running that by us again? 'Uniformed mutants'?"

This could work out after all...
Oni looked around at the tunnels. "Does anyone else feel like we're being watched?"

BlitzTurtle · 12-23-2001, 02:19 PM

As Randi narrowed her eyes at him, the crystal brown star that surrounded her pupils grew and almost envoloped every bit of aquagreen in them. "Exactly like I said Uniformed--..." Mid scentance, her eyes widened nerously at what Omi said and her pupil's grew until only a rim of aquagreen could be seen before retracting to thier normal size. She turned to Omi, "I think we are being watched..."

Dr. Terminus · 12-23-2001, 05:30 PM

Please???

Dr. Terminus · 12-23-2001, 11:20 PM

Somethings happening to me someones in my head its hurting

**Kali** · 12-23-2001, 11:39 PM

Leo tuned out the others for the moment and scanned the area. Yes, there was definitly something out there. But what? Those mutants Randi was talking about...? Or maybe something else. He set his swords back into defensive position.

Oni held her hoko in front of her and slipped a few shuriken into the other hand. This just keeps getting better and better.

BlitzTurtle · 12-24-2001, 07:58 AM

Randi backed up against the wall of the sewer tunnel, "No, Leonardo, it is *not* the mutants I was talking about." Her hands hovered over her guns waiting for a better sign to pull them out.

The Rat King · 12-24-2001, 09:29 AM

From nowhere, a pleasantly toned voice seems to creep from the murky depths of the surrounding sewage.

"Hmmmmm...several visitors to my blackened kingdom. How marvelous!" The voice says curiously.

The TMNT and their friends turn to exactly the place where the voice had originated from, but noone is there. Sonn a miniscule squeak can be heard. Then another. Then the sounds of many, growing like a tidal wave. Soon the denizens of the sewer, the rats, begin to swarm into the area. They crawl along the walls, the celings, and pratically carpet the floors, but they are careful not to touch anyone within the room.

From the shadows also steps their king. The Turtles and company are in a fighting stance, but the Rat King simply grins, looking over those who are now surrounded by his minions. A pair of rats scurry up from the crowd and climb up to sit on each of his shoulders.

"Well, well, well, what have we here? A curious gathering, yes? No..they have more business here than that, my little ones...I can feel it. Regardless...I am curious as to what brought you...here."

**HorseTechie** · 12-24-2001, 10:14 AM

"Well.. I don't think it was you personally," Raph sneered.

BlitzTurtle · 12-24-2001, 10:18 AM

Randi now had her guns out and aimed at the the human, "Damn... this just gets better and better every second!" she hissed angrily

**Kali** · 12-24-2001, 11:40 AM

Leonardo faced the Rat King. "We're just passing through," he said coldly. Then he added, "Actually, we're looking for a threat."

Oni looked in shock at Leonardo. Why would he tell this... human what they were up to?
