New muse, Voice testing - Turtles of all variety welcome.

[notyourfight]

Kinda jumping the gun on this one aren't we? [She lets out a weak laugh. She'd smile a little more but she's still worried about her father.]

Well, whatever. I mean as long as you promise to help me get my Dad back from those creepy brain guys in those robo-suits it's not all that bad right? ...Okay, Okay maybe you're right. Maybe I am just better trusting the guys to help me out instead. They're ninjas, Ninja turtles and you...you're not a ninja anything!

I just hope they'll let me fight alongside them too, I'm not some little girl who needs to be rescued all the time despite what those other versions of me you mentioned have done before.

...Seriously? A Yellow jumpsuit? How is that even fashionable?

[spider_kisser]

Wow, I actually think I might know EXACTLY how you feel here. My mun's mentioned how I have to be rescued all the time too.

He's also told me something about me wearing a purple yellow sweater, purple jeans, and cowboy boots. And I'm just...huh?

[notyourfight]

Wow, No offense but that sounds super lame. The Cowboy boots especially.

That getting kidnapped all the time thing isn't something I'm planning to let happen to me. Not when I've got to rescue my dad.

[spider_kisser]

I know, right? I don't know how anyone could think I'd look good in that. I don't know how anyone COULD look good in that?

Oh God, I can only hope it doesn't happen to me, but I might not have the drive like you do.

[notyourfight]

Thanks.

[theangryturtle]

[ hooboy. ]

Trust me, it could be worse. You could find out you're -- uh -- [ NOT REAL, thanks stupid alien rock ] marryin' that total dweeb Casey Jones.

[goddamnbatsman]

Or you could be stuck with Raph's ugly mug for the rest of your life.

[theangryturtle]

[sup bro]

My ugly mug is nothin' compared to yours, my man. I mean, why else would you wear a mask? 'cause if you went around beatin' up criminals bare-faced you'd scare 'em away!

[goddamnbatsman]

You might not be aware of his, what with lackin' one and all, but some of us have ta worry about getting our noses broken.

[theangryturtle]

Casey, a broken nose ain't really gonna hurt your good looks none.

Hell, it might improve 'em.

[notyourfight]

Raph? [Well this is odd.] You look kind of different, Older even.

My mun's being a jerk and won't even tell me who that Casey Jones guy is. Ugh, If I come across him I'm totally not marrying the guy.

[theangryturtle]

It's.. for the best. You'll, uh. Know when you're older.

[notyourfight]

Never mind, I think I just met him.

[theangryturtle]

...yeah, I can, uh. See that.

He's not so bad. Really. I wouldn't have any other guy at my back who wasn't my brother. Casey's -- family.

Even if he is one of God's own special children.

[goddamnbatsman]

Well, this is more'n a little bizarre.

[notyourfight]

...Should I know you?

[goddamnbatsman]

Well, not yet, since you just met the guys, and I don't do that until later. I'm Casey Jones.

[notyourfight]

Casey Jones?!

Wait a sec, You're telling me I'm going to wind up getting married to some weirdo in a Hockey Mask?! Eeew!

[goddamnbatsman]

You'd think a girl who hangs out with giant talking turtles would know not to judge a book by it's cover.

[notyourfight]

Okay, you make a valid point.

But seriously? I can't help but still feel a little weirded out here.

[polyturtle]

...The Utroms kidnapped your-

[Wait a second.]

April!?

[notyourfight]

Donnie-!?

[What happened to him? He seems like way older than the turtle who recently saved her life.]

Whoa, You are Donnie right?

[polyturtle]

Um...yeah.

[He could ask the same of you, young lady! Even though he's only about two and a half years older then his Paulsen-esque counterpart.]

Hi?

[notyourfight]

[Do not freak April, Do *not* freak!]

Hi...?

I don't understand, What happened to you?

[polyturtle]

[Indeed. How did Don lose the gap in his teeth!?]

Nothing, actually...however, I do believe I'm an alternate version of the Donatello you know. Not impossible in a place like this - I've already met a different Raphael and and Leonardo, and three different Michelangelos.

[notyourfight]

Like some kind of multi-verse thing? Sure I guess that's believable. I mean I did get rescued by four giant turtles afterall.

So that Raph I met earlier, he was one of the alternate versions too I bet.

[polyturtle]

I think so. I've met him before.

[notyourfight]

So what about the turtles from my universe? Where are they?

[polyturtle]

I'm...not entirely sure.

Though...if your turtles are relatively, er, small, I think I may have met two of them already.

[notyourfight]

Well my mun mentioned I should probably bump into Mikey sometime soon, But as for any other the others?

[She sighs.]

How am I supposed to rescue my dad, if I haven't got you guys to back me up?

[polyturtle]

...What is happening with you and your dad? The April from my world didn't exactly...have the same problem, I don't think.

[notyourfight]

He was taken away in a helicopter by those weird robot brain guys I was talking about! They woulda taken me too if if weren't for yo-- The other you. The you from my world.

I don't know what they want from my dad but I'm gonna do whatever it takes to get him back.

[polyturtle]

If the "brain guys" are where I think they were...we call them Utroms where I come from. But...that's weird because Utroms aren't generally hostile like that. They actually helped us a couple of times...

[Frowns. It might be a break-off group of Utroms, maybe led by someone like Chr'ell, or perhaps...]

What did your dad do for a living?

[notyourfight]

He's a scientist but--

What do they want from him?

[polyturtle]

A scientist...

[He frowns.]

Well, I'm only going by my own knowledge of my own universe, but its possible they want to use his knowledge to get back home? The Utroms back home spent years trying to perfect a teleportation device to try and return to their homeworld - maybe that's the case here and they just don't understand they have to ask someone to come with them first?

[Optimism! Why not. The alternative - that the Utroms in this world are evil - admittedly unsettles him a bit.]

[notyourfight]

And what if they're not?

[Sorry Donnie, as fun as optimism is there's still that naggling little thought in the back of April's head that this could still go terribly wrong.]

[fearless_leader]

Brains in robot bodies? You mean Utroms?

[notyourfight]

Yeah, Or at least that's what the older Donnie said. I think they were actually calling themselves 'The Krang' or something weird like that.

...Lemmie guess, You're the older Leo?

[leader_in_blue]

April... I'm not gonna say no to you wanting to fight to save your dad. If it were me, I'd wanna do the same thing. But you gotta realize, my brothers and I trained for fifteen years, and you saw how many problems we had fighting the Kraang.

If you're serious about this, then maybe you should start training with us. I'm sure Master Splinter'll say yes. Especially if the rest of us vouch for you.

[notyourfight]

[Finally a face she actually recognizes from her world.]

I know, And I admit whatever goes down it's not gonna be easy.

...Wait. Train with you guys? [Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh.] Seriously!? That'd be awesome! You really think your Dad will let me do that?

[leader_in_blue]

[Leo's happy too. So far he's just seen you and Mikey, and you make for far better conversation.]

Sure! I'll talk to him, but I'm sure he'll say yes. If he finally let us go up to the surface, anything's possible.

[And even if he doesn't, they have their secret weapon: four-way puppy dog eye barrage!]

I think it's a done deal though. My mun says your action figure comes with ninja weapons.

[notyourfight]

Oh man, don't tell my mun that! She spends enough cash on those brightly colored ponies, transforming robots and those freaky monster dolls. If gets wind there are action figures of us she's gonna go bankrupt!

[She hasn't seen Mikey around yet - To be honest she may or may not be holding out for a certain other brother of yours. One of the scientific obsessed variety.]

How hard can being a ninja possibly be anyway?

[leader_in_blue]

Heh. My mun still buys those robots, and he buys atleast one video game a month and waaaay too many comic books every week. He couldn't resist buying my action figure though.

[..... Raph?]

Harder than it looks. It takes extreme discipline of body and mind, absolute focus, and the ability to pass unseen.

..... don't ask me how Mikey got to be a ninja though.

[notyourfight]

If Mikey can be a ninja then I'm pretty sure I'll do just fine...

Hey Leo? Thanks.

[leader_in_blue]

The term "ninja" with Mikey is pretty relative, but I think you'll do fine too.

[He smiles.]

We're friends right? That's what friends do.
