TMNT Story: TGRI Chapter 1: The Beginning. Somewhere near Area 51. 11.30 p.m. The Joker's secret hideout. Bottles with strange looking liquid and mutated little animals are visible all around the room. Pizza boxes and opened cans of food and coke's are lying on the floor. Paper notes with calculations are on the desk with a crashed laptop sitting right next to it. The Joker is pacing around in his secret hideout, thinking about some kind of revenge against Batman. The last time it was him to interfere with his plan to blow up New York City. And he had enough of it. 'Always Batman, Batman, Batman'. "I've had ENOUGH of BATMAN!!!" he said and with his outburst he flings a chair around the room. It crashes on the other side of the room against the wall. He is trying to calm down and sits in another chair right near the desk. He checks all his notes to find anything that is useable for his revenge against Batman. Meanwhile in New York City. 11.30 p.m. The Lair of the turtles. Mikey's P.O.V. Dear Dairy, 'I'm bored, ... B.O.R.E.D.! I finally have a little "holiday" from both of my jobs and all of my brothers are busy. Well, when you can call the next things busy; Leonardo, my oldest brother and leader, is meditating in the dojo. Something what is going to make him a "better leader", he thinks. He's, as Raph would say, a "teacher's pet". Hmm... Maybe he's right about that. Ever since he came back from his "little trip" out in the jungle of Central America, he's been training almost double the amount we do. I'm worried about him, even though he said not to. But we all know he chanced, a lot. We see it, hear it when he talks, while he trains, during meditation, every time we go out. Even Master Splinter is worried about him. He doesn't show it that much, but sometimes when i go down for a late snack, i can hear him, talking, sometimes even crying. Ow great, now i get tears in my eyes. Raphael, the second oldest brother, is out, "playing" around, fighting crimes as the Nightwatcher, again. He's been doing that ever since Leo left for Central America. I can't blame 'm. But he kept it secret until Leo got captured by those stone generals. Because 3000 years ago Williams, then called Yaoru, was on a quest with his "brotherhood" to rule the world, or something like that. Well anyway, long story short: Leo got captured after a big fight with the Nightwatcher, who was Raph, only he didn't know, then... Okay now my head hurts! But he got back, told us, that's me, Donnie and Master, about him being the Nightwatcher. That was so cool, but not the part when Leo got captured. I always admired the Nightwatcher, i only never told Raph. And I never told Raph I loved him since I was 7, But I will, soon. Donatello, the second youngest brother, is locked up in his lab, working on a new project that is sure gonna make life underground more easier for us. That's what he does best. Our braniac. Always working on different projects, making new interventions, keeping us healthy by being our "doctor" when we are sick or when one of us is hurt during training, fight with enemy's or just being ourselves, being a psychiatrist when one of us feels down, always there for you when somethings are broken... Damn, he really is a busy turtle... and his job as an technical support line. He's doing a pretty good job i say myself. I just hope he can help Leo with his new ego... Master Splinter is our father and Master of Ninjitsu. He's been taught by Master Yoshi, his "father", well Master Splinter is a rodent, a rat to be precised. He was Yoshi's and Teng Shen's pet. Two adopted children from The Ancient One. He had another one Mashimi, but he turned evil and worked for The Shredder, Our hatred enemy number 1! He's the leader of the Foot Clan. I'm happy we defeated him and sensed him to exile. Now Karai, Shredder's daughter, is running the Foot. I still don't know why we trust her, sure she helped us destroying the Ultimate Shredder because she was a "link" and helpt us save the world, but i still doesn't trust her. I'm not the only one, Raph thinks so to. But anyway, Master Splinter a great Master and a loveable father. I mean, come on, we're Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, mutated by the Utroms. The Master's of my Master's Master... And really cool friends, cool as in giant pink alien blobs. Sorry about that, Mister Mortu, but it is the truth. They created the ooze, that's what mutated us to what we are. Not only us, also our good friend, Leatherhead, a giant talking crocodile version of Donnie. That ooze stuff is pretty dangerous and creepy, if you ask me. I'm clad they disposed of it. Sure where the only ones left that gots that stuff in our system, well, Leatherhead as well, but nobody's gonna chance like us. The world is better of without it. And me, well... i am Cowabunga Carl, a birthday party provider for parents who wants there little "children" have the time of there life’s by busting and beating the living crap out of me and my custome, personally i really hate being Cowabunga Carl, but i have to do something, right? I couldn't just sit on my butt watching TV and playing video games all day. Actually it was getting boring. Yeah, me, The Mikester, was actually getting bored of my favorite things in life. And i have my job being The Turtle Titan! I also work with the famous Justice Force! That is really cool. More and more super heroes have joined us, the latest was Batman. He started a week ago. He's pretty cool, but also has his own enemy's, like this Joker person he'd keep talking about. Sounds to me like no Joker at all. Like Batman told us he was trying to destroy New York City last time with an massive bomb! Luckily he stopped him from doing that, otherwise i wasn't here right now. But he can tell great story's. I told my bro's about him, Raph is pretty jealous about him, i can tell, every time Batman is in the news he saved somebody, Raph is going out or chance channels. I think Raph is jealous about him being just as big as the Nightwatcher. Well i have to go, it's late enough and i heard Leo talk to Splinter about some "special training" in the morning. So he's gonna wake up early, i just know it. So goodnight my dear dairy. -xxx- Mikey. But Mikey never knew that his life was chancing dramaticly that next day. -x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-
