~Have fun! Great now what do i do?~

MikeyC: *groan* I cant believe i got grounded again!

SpC: You brought this upon yourself, my son. When we finish here, you will be dismissed to begin your duties.

*Machias looked at Don for a moment. He hadnt been involved in any of it. He wasnt responsible for any of the stuff that had happened. She had to wonder what Splinter would do with him. She was just grateful for the ice pak he gave her...*

Master, what about Donatello? He didnt really do anything wrong, either.

*Don looked a little nervous for being put into the spotlight, and looked up to Splinter uneasily.*

SpC: That is true, Machias. Donatello was not involved, although he could have tried to prevent some of this from happening.

*Don blushed a little, and lowered his eyes. Splinter looked at him, Kali and raphael, and then made a decision...*

~I am evil!~

~Yes, you are!~
Splinter: Raphael, you will be putting in extra practice. Double the usual.

*Raph's jaw dropped. That was harsh. And he'd hardly ever be able to see Kali.*

Splinter: Donatello, I believe this has taught you enough so that you will make a better decision if something like this happens again.

*Don lowered his head and nodded. Splinter knew that his guilt was his own worst enemy.*

Splinter: And girls, you must rest up while I'm gone. And stay out of trouble. You are all dismissed.

*mike was sent to his duties, Raph was sent to the dojo, and Don sat silently, his guilt eating at his insides. (man this sounds familiar!)*

Are you leaving now, Sensei?

*Splinter turned to Machias and sighed softly. He could tell something was bothering her. Maybe it was being near Raphael with him not there, maybe it was the dino-nervousness...*

SpC: This evening, yes. Leonardo needs to be taught how to control his anger, as his actions has shown us.

*Machias blushed a little, the bruise making it seem stronger. it had spread to the entire side of her face, and the area around her eye was swollen.*

SpC: have courage, child. things will improve. Now, i must go and prepare. Rest yourselves and heal.

Yes, Sensei.

*Splinter departed and left Don alone in the room with the two girls.*

*Kali cleared her throat* Don, what exactly did Leo tell you?

*Don looked up* Just that he told you that he liked you, and that he kissed you. He wasn't very detailed, and I didn't pry.

*sighs* Thanks, Don. *walks over to Machias* Come on, that ice is starting to melt, let's go get you another pack from the kitchen.

*Machias stood up, her tail sore from sitting. 'raptors dont sit they crouch' she told herself. they walked into the kitchen to see mike stuck sweeping the floor. Kali pulled another pak from the fridge, and Machias sat sideways on the chair, touching the bruise lightly with a finger.*

*sigh* this is gonna take forever to heal...

*Mike looked at her while he swept, a wave of pity washing over him. He loved Machias deeply, and he felt awful for letting her get hurt like that. Seeing what Leo did to her made him angry, but there wasnt much he could do. Machias saw him looking at her, and he turned away sharply, sweeping faster.*

Mike... I just wanna say--

Mikey: Im-Im sorry...Im so sorry. I--I gotta go.

*at that word, he left the kitchen to do chores in anothe part of the lair, leaving Machias sitting sadly, and Kali looking clueless. Leo entered and looked at them, and turned to leave when...*

Leo wait!

*Leo stopped but didn't turn around*

Is that what you're going to do from now on, just avoid me?

Leo: It's the best for everybody. Until I work this out, I really can't come near you. *He glanced towards Machias* I'm sorry, I don't know how many times I have to say it, but I am. I hope you can forgive me eventually.

*Machias felt angered, but the fearful feeling lingered and grew stronger*

you can say sorry... and you can avoid us... b-but it--it wont help anything.

*she turned he face away, feeling hot tears flood her eyes. Don appeared at the entrance and watched, the feeling like watching a lightning storm from a buildingtop.*

Don: Is..everything alright in here...?

Leo: Yeah. Yeah... just fine.
*Leo frowned and stalked out of the kitchen. He could hear Splinter callng for him...*

*Kali frowned* Hey, Don, could you leave us alone?

Don: Okay, sure. Just holler if you need anything.

*Once Don left, Kali sat across from Machias* Okay, now this is beyond just holding a grudge for hitting you. I can tell there's something else. Are you really that afraid of him?

*Machias looked at Kali. Why did she have to ask??*

Its nothing...honest. darn dino hormones, thats all.

*she wiped the tears from her face, wincing form the pain in her cheek. She didnt want to talk about it, so she got up and left the room. she wandered until she found the living room, where Splinter and Leo were finishing preparations to go to the farmhouse. She saw Leo and spun around to leave, when Splinter called her name*

Umm, yes Splinter?

SpC: Im sorry to ask you, but could you help Leonardo load our luggage into the truck?

A-actually, i uh, i gotta go do some--

SpC: It will only take a second, *he said, looking at her*, please.

*She didnt want to be anywhere near Leo after what he had done. She could have just turned and left, but that would be disrespectful, and she didnt want to go through that guilt trip again.*

*sigh* Okay, i'll help. What do you need moved?

SpC: Thank you child. *he patted her shoulder and pointed to two bags.* It will help you will feel better and it will give you something to do.


*Meanwhile... Raph had come into the kitchen to get a drink when he saw Kali sitting at the table, lines of concentration etched into her forehead.*

Raph: Whats with you?

*sighs and sits back in her chair* Nothing really, I'm just trying to figure all this out. *rubs her hands over her face*

*Raph walks around and starts to massage her shoulders* Anything I can help with?

No. Ya know, sometimes I think it would have been better if we'd never come here.

Raph: That's stupid!

Is it? I mean, Machias and I seem to be directly or indirectly responsible for everything that's happened.

*Raph squeezed her shoulders* Stop it. You know I'd be totally lost without you. It ain't your fault.

*Don heard Kali's comment from the kitchen, and slipped away to think.*

*Machias finished helping lug stuff into the truck, and sat on a treestump to rest.*

SpC: thank you Machias. You were an immense help.

*Machias sighed and nodded absentmindedly. Splinter raised an eyebrow, and knelt before her looking into her red eyes.*

SpC: I can see something is bothering you-and it is not just the bruise on your face.

*Machias nodded and looked up to him, tears running freely now.*

I just- i dont know...bad childhood memories are flooding back to me.

SpC: Come, let us walk and then you can tell me.

*Machias and Splinter moved away from the truck and spoke privately.*

When i was younger, i was attacked by a bunch of boys... with metal bats. i didnt know how to defend myself from them, and just grew very fearful of them. I think its happening all over again...with Leo.

SpC: You can be assured that he never meant to hit you, though it seemed to be just the opposite. He was angered and embarrassed greatly. He is very sorry for what he did, and said that he wanted to make up for it if you would just give him the chance. Take the time while we are away to think about it.

I will. thank you Splinter, you've helped me feel a lot better. *She hugged Splinter and bid them farewell with the others when he and Leonardo left.*

Mikey: now what..?

Don: YOU get back to your chores, Raph gets practicing, and the girls heal up.

Raph: Who called you boss?

Don: Master Splinter did. He told me to keep things going straight while they were gone.

*Mike dragged himself away to his chores and Raph cursed and went to the dojo.then he turned to the girls with a shy smile.*

Don: can i help you ladies with anything?

*Kali smiled* Gee, I'd respond with something naughty, but after today, I don't think it'd be very funny. I'm fine, I think I'm just going to relax for awhile.

*Kali slipped away and wandered around for awhile before deciding that what she really wanted was a soak in the hot tub* That'll melt my worries away!

I think i want to go for a latenight swim. What are you do, Donnie?

don: I'm gonna just chill and read. Ive fixed everything in this entire place, and the others arent here to bug me, so... *smirk*

Okay, but you can join whenever you want.

*don nodded and with a smile, left the room.*

Ahh, this'll be nice.

*Machias had changed into her suit (however it fit with the tail), and glided into the water. she snaked thruogh the water like a giant crocodile, and felt the tension leave her muscles. She felt gooooooood.*

*Don found Mike cleaning the bathroom, glaring at the drain with a look of disgust.*

Mikey: None of us have hair, and yet the clog's full of it! i know Splinter sheds, but this is ridiculous!

*Son grinned and stepped forward.*

don: Remember, the girls have been here, using the pool, the hottub, the [i]shower[/]. It comes with the business.

mikey: Maybe we oughta shave their heads or something.

don: good luck. *Don paused for a moment and looked to Mike with a serious eye.* Say Mike, has Machias ever said she regretted ever meeting us?

Mike: *looked at Don like he had two heads, and shook his* No dude, she's never said that. Why?

*Don shut the door behind him and sat down on the toilet lid.*

Mike: *smirk* You know Don, if you need to go that bad, you just have to ask.

Don: Shaddap! Anyways, I heard Kali say that she wished that her and Machias had never come here, cuz bad stuff seems to happen whenever theyre around.

Mike: thats not true! If they werent here, i'd be bored out of my skull!

Don: it got me thinking, what if we take the girls out for a night on the town? Show them how much we appreciate them? then they wouldnt feel so bad...

Mikey: Yeah that sounds like an awesome plan! *snicker* But who exactly are you gonna ask to be your date?

Don: I'll just have to go alone unless... *he looked at Mike mischeivously.*

*mike held up his hands, shaking his head.*

Mike: Oh no you dont! I said thatthat was the LAST time i'd ever dress up in drag for anyone! I still cant believe you dragged me out in front of Splinter. I STILL have bad flashbacks from that!

Don: Well, it WAS funny, and Raph said you looked pretty good, Michelleangela.

Mike: *pout* okay, when are we gonna do this tho? We cant just up and go you know...

Don: We can figure something out... now get back to work.

*Don left Mike to his work and went to the dojo to talk to Raph*

*spotting Machias and Kali in the hot tub she runs over, a look of delight on her face*

~Im in the pool, but that's okay. ~

Oh, hey, SC. Sure, we got room. take your pick! There's a changing stall over there behind the rocks.

*Machias exited the water, her scales glittering in the moonlight. the swimming was putting her back onto a good mood, and that was a good thing. She took a drink of her mango lassie and slipped back into the water, silent as a pin dropping.*

~Oh gnad, i gotta get going. its 1 am over here and i have class tomorrow. I'll see ya later!~

~Thanks Machias, I was a little unclear on that since Kali mentioned the hot tub~

*Skeletoncrew heads over the stall and changes into her purple swimsuit. Putting her hair up she settles slowly into the water next to Kali*

I'm glad to see things have finally quieted down around here. I'm ashamed to say I was avoiding the area. I picked up an awful lot of angry vibes...and I just feel inadequate trying to help people sort their problems out.

Nunchucker entered the caves/lair. It had been a long flight from the UK, but it would be worth it to see the surprised looks on her friends' faces. She set her cases down, always one to do someting on the spur of the moment. She scanned the caves/lair for any signs of life.

"Hello? Any one home?" She called out into the emptiness.

Yeah, we seemed to have a excess of angry vibes the last few days. Long story. *hears Nunchucker's call* Hey, it's Nun! *jumps out of the hot tub and grabs her towel* Let's go say hi.

*Don walked into the dojo where Raph was practicing* Hey, I need to talk to you.

Raph: No, I gotta practice, remember, boss?

Don: I heard what Kali said about the girls causing us problems.

*Raph stopped and looked at Don* Dude, does everyone in this place eavesdrop?

Don: I was thinking that maybe we could do something nice for them. To show them how much we appreciate them.

Raph: What'd you have in mind?

"Kali!" Nun squealed. "Surprise!" "How are you? Where is everyone?" *Scans the caves* "I knew I should have phoned first!"
