TMNT meet Frog-boy (for ateveryonesfeet)

It was another day in the sewers for Splinter, Donatello, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Leonardo.

"Another boring duty day," Raphael grumbled as he went out with Mike.

"Lighten up dude," Mike commented, "At least we can have it easy for a while."

Raphael snorted at Mike's comment and kept walking.

Splinter, Leonardo, and Don were back at the lair doing some training.

"Faster attack with the bow my son," Splinter said to Don, "And Leonardo, swift strokes with the katana is all it takes for this exercise."

"Yes Father," Don and Leonardo replied.

Casey Jones was wandering the town above the sewers and thought that he saw something duck down into the sewer.

[ateveryonesfeet]

The small figure, no bigger than a toddler, covered in dirty rags, quickly scurried into the big hole.

"Darn it..." he uttered, landing on the floor of the sewer. "Who was that freak wandering around?"

Well, he mused, after all he himself was considered a freak by the few people who knew him...

"I just must avoid him and find a safe place where to eat" he again uttered to himself, gripping the satchel full of stolen food.

Raphael and Mike continued to patrol the sewers.

"Why it is that I always get stuck with you?" Raphael asked in annoyance.

"Maybe because you need to loosen up," Mike replied.

Raphael just snorted an glared at his brother.

Splinter kept watching his other two sons with their training.

Casey Jones shrugged and went on his way since he had a few errands to run before meeting up with the Turtles again.

[ateveryonesfeet]

The little being heard Raph and Mickey's voices approaching, and cursed under his breath.

"Who the hell could wander around here?"

He quickly turned to ran away from those voices, but the ground was wet and slippery...

"Ouch!" he moaned, falling forward, while a few apples rolled out of his satchel and one of them fell to splash into the slimey water.

"What was that?" Mike asked as Raphael grabbed his sais.

"An intruder perhaps," Raphael replied.

Both Mike and Raphael made their way towards the area where they heard the noise and stopped short when they rounded the corner.

"Who are you?" Mike asked, "And what brings you down here?"

Raphael placed his sais back into their holder on his belt.

[ateveryonesfeet]

"Ahhhh!" the small creature jumped up in fear.

Well, he was not scared by the looks of the two ninjas... he had seen plenty of mutants, and he was one of them for that matter: barely 2 feet tall although aged nine, he was a mix of a boy and a frog, with dark brown-green calloused skin, huge black eyes and long olive green hair... what scared him was the size of the newcomers, who were more than three times taller than him and well muscled... beside being armed!

So the kid used the only weapon he owned: SPEED!

And turning with a fast move, he sprinted away.

Mike and Raphael just looked at each other and shrugged.

"Well that was rude of him," Raphael commented, "Racing off and not answering simple questions."

"He seemed to scared to answer," Mike stated, "Poor guy."

[ateveryonesfeet]

The boy-frog ran further into the tunnels, glancing back to see if the turtles were following him, and not realizing he was going to a part of the sewer territory he didn't know.

"Well," Raphael stated, "We better go find him."

"Agreed," Mike commented as they walked off in the direction the frog-boy took.

Don and Leo were still training under the watchful eye of Splinter.

[ateveryonesfeet]

Only when the little one's legs were too tired to allow him to run, he realized he was totally lost!

"Oh no!" he panted. "Where can I go now? Where can I find a hole?"
