Here's Ch 5 of AW- Enjoy the weekend. Toodles-K&K
DISCLAIMER: OK Shredder, it's all yours! First, thank you to Mr. T. for the use of the Angels. Thanks to everyone else who is letting us use their creations. How was that, Yuri? Great! Oh yes it was, Kei! Well, we left you up in the air so let's get to Chapter 5 without further preamble:-
Chapter 5
'Revy's Raiders' or 'Turtles and Reapers and Ninjas- Oh My!'
Meanwhile back at Kei's office or the hallway outside of her office--
"Just where in the shell are we now, guys?" asked Donnatella (Donnie's and his brothers, pals and sister have been here before with their sensei- Master Splinter- aboard the 'Angel' and the shuttles-remember? In 'Xmas with the DP' of course!).
"Dunno where we are, bro but it sure as shell must be Mikey's fault!" grumbled Raphael.
"Why is it my fault that we're lost? You guys didn't have to come in here ya know! Hey April! How ya holding up, sis? Lucky for you that I wore my new cycle jacket today, wasn't it?" shouted Michaelangelo.
"Will you three try and keep it down to a dull roar, please? I'm trying to listen!" complained Leonardo who had his ear to Kei's office door.
"Quiet down, my sons. I could have almost sworn that I just heard Miss O'Halloran's voice." said their sensei (teacher/mentor/father figure) Master Splinter who was leaning heavily on his staff.
"Hey! Look here 'Shredder' dude- if ya don't shut the Hell up I'm gonna gag ya besides keeping ya tied up! Yell all ya wanna but I still ain't gonna untie ya!" said Casey Jones (adopted by the turtles as a brother), brandishing a 5-Iron golf club in his fist.
"All the Hell I said was 'where are we now?', you dumb jackass! If we're on my world you're all in deep shit so you'd better release me! If you do I'll see that no harm comes to you when my foot-Ninjas show up to kick your asses! How about it, boys?" wheedled mankind's worst nightmare known as the 'Shredder'.
"At least you guys weren't in the middle of taking a bath when we got sucked in this time! I even lost my towel! Thanks a lot, Mikey. It's nice to know that chivalry isn't completely dead and that some of you still behave like gentlemen! Master? Where in God's name do you think we are now anyway?" asked a dripping wet April O'Neal who was clutching a way too short black motorcycle jacket around her kawaii (lovely) shivering form. (April had also been adopted by the boys as a sister and she like the rest thought of Master Splinter as a father). "Dammit all! My feet are freezing! (April was barefoot) Hey guys! This place looks like a school of some kind. Maybe that's a supply room, Leo. Hurry up and break down the door! I need clothes guys!" yelled the redhead from the Bronx of Terran New York City.
"Sheesh April! Do you ever shut the shell up? All you've done since we got here is yap! Wherever 'here' is!" complained Raphael.
"Any ideas, Sensei?" asked Donnatella.
"I wish I had some, my son. Perhaps you should try and open that door, Leonardo." he said.
"I tried and it won't open, Sensei! There seems to be something keeping it shut!" replied Leonardo.
"Duh! Maybe it's locked, guys?" offered a sneezing redheaded April.
"Maybe sis but I tried ramming it with my shoulders and it still won't move! Not even an inch! Hey Donnie! This sorta looks like one of those portals they had back on the Boss's ships, don't it? Can you work your magic, bro and short circuit the controls or something or pick the locks maybe?" asked Leo.
Donnie fiddled with the code pad and suddenly the door swished aside! "Now how the shell'd I do that I wonder? I didn't touch anything." wondered Donnie aloud.
"Well hi there fellas. Won't you all come in- please!" invited Revy Roberts who was cradling a heavy plasma rifle in both arms.
"Get yer sorry asses in here right now!" yelled Neko Olson, firing a disruptor blaster bolt into the wall right behind April!
"Jesus H. Christ! You don't gotta tell me twice! C'mon bros- don't ya know that it's not polite to keep a lady waiting!" said the barefoot redhead as she scurried past evryone and into kei's office. Grumbling the other guys followed her in.
Revy did a double take! "Oro the oni kinda weapons are they? And just oro the Fxxx are you guys anyway?" she growled. While Revy kept her rifle on them, Neko and Edna quickly disarmed the group and frisked them.
"Sai? I ain't seen them since last time I was in Roanispur! ('Sai' are a weapon but they are really a tool for harvesting rice and as such they're quite useful in disarming a foe. In appearance, they resemble a cultivating fork or a garden weeder although a sai (pronounced like 'sigh') has two prongs rather than three. They are usually carried in pairs and in an expert's trained hands they are deadly and Raph was an expert of the highest calibre!). Katanas too? Are you dudes from a martial arts exhibition or something? (A 'katana' is a basic Samurai sword about a meter in length and sharp only on one side of the blade which is squared off and not pointed like European and Western swords). Wow! 'Numchaka'! Now they can put a serious hurtin' on ya! (Leo carried two katanas while brother Mikey used a set of 'numchakas' sometimes called 'numb chucks'. Resembling a South American 'bolo' they were two weights usually iron attached to a short chain. Wooden handles were similarly attached to either end of the weapon) Oro? All you two bozos got are plain old sticks? (Actually Donnie's 'stick' was called a 'bo' staff and was not unlike a 'bokka' which was a wooden sword used in early Samurai or katana training. Sensei Splinter's 'stick' was an ordinary wooden staff or pole which the old boy could handle with great dexterity, precision and force despite his advanced age!) Aw! You've just gotta be kidding! Golf clubs? And oro the Fxxx are ya all dolled up for- Hall-o-we'en? Who d'ya think ya are- Jason Voorhees? (Casey Jones wore a hockey mask a la Jason in the old Terran classic flicks 'Friday the 13th' and there were ten of them or so! His preferred weapons were golf clubs- woods and irons and a hockey stick!) I see that your good tomos here have already packaged you up for us and is that really 14th Century Terran Samurai body armour? Oro the Hell'd they do- catch ya heistin' a museum? (The 'Shredder' resembled an ancient Samurai knight from the era of Musashi (the greatest Samurai warrior of all time), however, the 'Shredder' was, in fact, an alien from a faroff world. He was an evil alien- and a deadly one to boot! At last Revy came to April O'Neal and stared googly-aizued at her!) Wow! I can see that you ain't hiding anything in that get-up, Honey! Rio, take her next door and rep up some 'fuku' (clothing, outfit, etc.) for her! No need to do a further strip search on ya- is there, kid? (April shook her kawaii locks and almost manged a smile before she remembered that they were prisoners!) OK. Here's how this is gonna work! (Revy pointed out Naomi Armitage and Suba (Subaltern- like a Terran military warrant officer- somewhere twixt a first and second lieutenant!) Marina Oki) You're gonna tell them your names and where and when ya hail from. We're gonna be gettin' ya home just as soon as we can, folks. Until then you're gonna have to be our guests." rumbled Revy, spitting out her cigarette stub and lighting up another.
In another part of the building--
"Ichigo! Are you sure you know where we're going? This 'gi' (gee prounounced like the g in go) of mine is very uncomfortable in this stifling heat! This does not look at all like the 'Rukkan District' or the 'Seretai' although we might be in a taboo part where I'm not allowed to go! Man it's hot in here!" said Rukia Kuchski, a 'soul reaper' from the 'Soul Society' city. Ichigo Kurosaki (a 'substitute' soul reaper from Terran Japan) grinned.
"Then why don't you just take it off, Rukia?" he suggested.
"Ha. Ha. Very funny. I can't because all I've got on underneath is a tee shirt and my unmentionables! And I'm not doing that in front of you, boyo!" replied Rukia. A long bang of her black hair hung down across her face and bisected it to the left. Ichigo also wore a 'gi' but his hair was orange in hue. Both reapers carried 'zampatous' or swords although a reaper's sword was actually an extension of their own spiritual energy 'chi' and each seemed to have a mind of its own. In appearance most did not even resemble katanas or cutlasses or even Scottish claymores for that matter!
"Who the Fxxx are you two and oro the Hell are ya doing in here? This is a sensitive area ya know!" demanded Vegeeta Brief and surprisingly he appeared to be unarmed! Ichigo reached behind and over his back for his 'Zengetsu' (all reapers' 'zampatous' have names to release their true powers!) while Rukia reached for hers before realizing that it was back home in her room in Japan! Vegeeta began to 'power up' preparatory to a 'spirit bomb' attack!
