RPG: DIA DE LOS MUERTOS -->CONTINUATION WEEK from HELL & - Page 64

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-08-2002, 09:14 PM

*Mike hung on, grateful that he'd ridden pillion before on a motorcycle and knew how to lean with the turns. As it was he was pretty certain he'd left his stomach behind about the time that Raph had cut Leo off in the van.*

*Leo slammed on the breaks to avoid running over the bike as it cut off close enough they could have reached out and touched the front bumper.* Damnit Raph!

*He was about to follow, then remembered, that was why MIKE was with him. No jacket, no way to follow them inside, it would be useless. He sighed, and turned the van towards home.*

*kyabetsu* · 12-08-2002, 09:23 PM

Raph checked the gauges on the bike. Glad, he'd topped off the tank before he stopped at the diner, Raph settled himself onto the bike and felt its engine purring beneath him. He'd taken good care of his bike, and unlike his other pursuits, his care here had paid off well.

R(interanal): the bike don't love me. but it don't hate me neither.

With his brother at his back and his sense of self worth firmly between his knees, Raph pulled out onto an interstate ramp and opened the engine out full.

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-08-2002, 09:33 PM

*Mike just hung on, and enjoyed the scenery. He had no idea where they were going, or even where they currently were, and conversation was impossible over the wind.*

*Leo drove home slowly. He was worried about his brothers. His mouth twitched. He was ALWAYS worried about his brothers. It was his job. He just hoped that Mike could help where he couldn't. There were times he really missed it when their biggest enemies had been tangible.*

*Don got the cocoa made and passed out mugs to everyone before taking a seat at the table with them.*

*kyabetsu* · 12-08-2002, 09:44 PM

kya gratefully accepted the hot cocoa with a smile and a mild cough.

kya; Vespera? that was really fun. The dancing. Thank you.

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-08-2002, 09:50 PM

Ves: Glad you liked it. I was having fun too. We should hit the clubs together some night Kya, it'd be fun to have a girls night out.

*kyabetsu* · 12-08-2002, 09:57 PM

kya looked a bit unsure.
kya: um, a girls night out sounds nice Vespera.

it was hard to say if the idea made her uneasy or if she just wasn't sure what kind of clubs Vespera meant. It might have been both.

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-08-2002, 10:02 PM

*Leo pulled into the garage and shut off the engine. He leaned his head against the steering wheel for a minute before getting out of the van, and slamming the door. Feeling only slightly better, he entered the lair.*

*kyabetsu* · 12-09-2002, 06:46 PM

kya accepted the cocoa with a smile, but looked up sharp at the sound of the slamming door. She looked ready to take off again but the footsteps where too close now, and she swung the other way instead. She sat very still.

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-09-2002, 06:57 PM

*Donatello looked up at the sound of the slamming door, and a few minutes later Leo came around the corner.* Leo, keep it down will ya? The last thing I need is to have to rehang the doors on the van.

*Vespera saw Leo come in the kitchen.* Hey. Take a seat, fill us in. What happened?

*kyabetsu* · 12-09-2002, 07:10 PM

Leo: it was the garage door, not the van.
Leo rolled his shoulders and sat down heavily next to Vespera.

Leo: what happened?... I'll tell you what i know in exchange for a cup of that cocoa, how's that?

kya snapped her head up.
kya: (clearly relieved that Leo seems calm, and intent on keeping it that way) cocoa? I got it!

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-09-2002, 07:20 PM

*Vespera reached out one hand and massaged at the tense muscles she found at the back of his neck, and watched Kya get up for the cocoa.*

DOn: I'm assuming you and Mike went to chase Raph down. Did you find him?

*kyabetsu* · 12-09-2002, 07:33 PM

Leo shut his eyes and let Ves push the knots out of his neck.
L; thanks Kya.

He opened his eyes and smiled a small 'thank you' to Vespera, before taking her hand in his and pulling it away from his neck. It felt great, but Donnie and Kya were in the room too and Don was trying to talk to him. Leo held on to her hand though and didn't let it go.

L: it took an HOUR or so.. but we found him. Mike went into the diner to talk to him. the place didn't explode. I guess that means it went well. (kya hands him the hot mug. Leo lets go of Ves' hand reluctantly to accept the cocoa.) thank you. anyways, Mike came out like twenty minutes later and the two of them got on his bike and rode off. (Leo takes a tenative sip of the cocoa and then drinks deeply).

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-09-2002, 07:51 PM

*Don leaned back in his chair.* So Mike's with him? Good. I don't know half of whats happening there, but I can't remember the last time Raph stormed off twice in less than 24 hrs.

*Vespera frowned a bit.* He takes off like this regularly? Just not this often usually?

**Kali** · 12-09-2002, 07:59 PM

*Splinter had to place the ice pack back on Kali's head as she started regaining consciousness and stirring.* Kali, can you hear me?

*Kali moaned again and opened her eyes. They didn't focus and she was staring up at two Splinters. She tried to push herself up using her left arm, and the pain shot from her back all the way down her arm. She fell back down, her shoulder landing on the break.* O-ow! *She sat up using her right arm for support and look over her shoulder at her wing through tears of pain. The wing was limp, useless, but at least it hadn't broken skin*

*Splinter helped her sit up. He thought about chastizing about about her reckless actions, but decided against it, since he didn't know her emotional state at the moment*

*Kali looked over at Splinter* I'm still alive?

*Splinter nodded* Very much so.

What happened?

*Splinter started to speak, but stopped* There is plenty of time for that. We should set that break.

*kyabetsu* · 12-09-2002, 07:59 PM

Kya sat back down and sipped her cocoa without asking any questions. Her equilibrium was settling but she had no intention of prying into things. She let Don and Vespera do the asking. Leo still seemed worried and he knew more about this than she did. She held her peace and said a short silent prayer that Mike and Raph made it home safe.

Leo wiped the cocoa mustache off his face with the back of his hand.
L: yeah. Mike's with him. ... so how's the OTHER half of the argument? how's Kali?

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-09-2002, 08:06 PM

*Don looked up* Kali? Meko said that she was with Splinter... she got hurt somehow. He had an icepack on her head, and would ring that bell Kya gave him if needed a hand.

*Vespera looked troubled* You don't think Raphael...

*terran631* · 12-09-2002, 08:08 PM

SP: *sits back a little* I will however require help to set it and to get you to the infirmary. *he stands and retrieves the bell from his desk and rings it to draw DOnatello's attention*

*kyabetsu* · 12-09-2002, 08:08 PM

Leo shook his head.
L; there was only ONE slapping noise, and HE was wearing the mark. I can't believe he'd hurt Kali....

kya kept very quiet.

*Vespera Blaze* · 12-09-2002, 08:15 PM

*Donatello looked up sharply at the sound of the ringing bell.* Speaking of, I've just been summoned. Excuse me.

*He got up quickly and left for Splinters study.*

*Vespera noticed Kya studying the tabletop intently* Anything wrong?

*kyabetsu* · 12-09-2002, 08:21 PM

kya's head snapped up, a smile on her face.
kya: no. nothing. would you like more cocoa?
