Chapter 1:
The Party



“Please Leo! Pleasee! You know you’d want to!” Mikey begged as he held up the flyer he retrieved from the sewers underneath a grate. Leo sighed. He gazed at his brother. “Mikey you know Splinter will say no.”
“Why!? Its hollows eve night! The night where we can go about with no cares and no worries! Come on Leo!” Mikey begged and shot Leo those puppy dog eyes, Leo frowned as he stared down at his baby brother and those puppy eyes. Leo gave a hard sigh and crossed his arms over his chest. “Ask Sensei. If he says no then it’s a no. Got it?”
Mikey jumped up and down rushing off to the Dojo knocking Raph and Donnie off balance as they made their way to Leo. “Whoa wheres the fire!?” Raph growled.
“Whats got him so worked up?” Donnie asked.
Leo looked at his brothers. “He’s wanting to go to a costume party for hollows eve.”
“You mean Halloween?” Donnie asked.
“No Donnie he means Christmas! What do you think Shell brains.”
Donnie glared at Raph and rolled his eyes. “Oh go kick a punching bag Raph.” He retorted before stomping off to his lab and shutting the door.
Leo gave Raph a stern look. “Why did you have to do that?”
“Cause I felt like it.” Raph responded in a sour fashion. Leo was about to lash out on Raph when they heard April rushing into the lair.
“Guys! Tell Sensei I wont be able to train tomorrow.”
“Why?”
“Cause my friend wants me to go to this costume party.” April explained giving the flyer to Leo. Before Leo could tell April they might be going there was a loud excited shriek coming from the dojo, which had Donnie come out of his lab. The turtles and April rushed into the Dojo to see Master Splinter shooting odd looks at his youngest son who was dancing about.
“Whats wrong!?” Leo asked. Mikey rushed up to him and shoved the flyer in his face.
“Guess what bros we are going to a party!”
Raph scowled. “Why on earth would I wanna go to such a thing?”
“Yeah, and I got inventions to finish.” Donnie griped.
Leo snatched the paper from his brothers and curled his lip. “Mikey you cant be serious.”
April took the flyer. “Oh come on guys, it cant be bad, im going and the best part is you guys will already have your costumes.”
Donnie’s eyes light up. “Your attending?” He asked as he got close to April. April smiled up at him. “Yep, my friend is wanting me to go, Im going as this Mona Lisa character that was a cartoon character from a show that aired back in the late eighties.”
Donnie’s imagination ran wild and a smile appeared on his face. He cleared his throat and draped his arm over his little brother. “Well guys it seems we have no choice but to go. After all we wouldn’t want to let out dear brother he be deprived of parties his whole life now can we?”
Raph stared at Donnie in confusion, Leo observed him with suspicion. Mikey looked up at Leo with his big blue eyes and poked out his lower lip. “Please Leo????”
Leo felt the pull of that face, drawing him in, making his serious leader mode vanish slowly, sighing as he couldn’t stand the look any longer he held his head. “Fine, we will go.”
Raph scowled. “Im not going! Why would I want to spend my Friday with a bunch of lame people in costumes?”
April smirked. “Because Raph, There will be wrestling on, the biggest premiere too.”
Raph’s eyes widened and light up, they don’t usually get good connection with that channel. Raph crossed his arms. “Alright fine. Im in.”
Mikey gasped and jumped around the dojo, doing back flips and cartwheels, obviously excited.
Master Splinter only gazed at his son with great concern, but stayed silent.
Let the fun begin.

“Look! Im going as Turtle Titan!” Mikey announced as he rushed out into the living room, showing off his costume he made to his brothers. Leo cocked his head. “Mikey you do know that we don’t have to dress up right?”
“Yeah but whats the fun in going as average turtles?” Mikey smiled big. “Now go get ready, I really don’t want people to laugh at me because im the only one doing this Halloween thing right.”
His brothers rolled their eyes and went to their rooms, twenty minutes later they emerged out and came back to the living room. Raph in boxer gloves and his sais were gone. Leo was in a Captain Ryans Space Heros shirt and Donnie was in a white lab coat with goggles against his forehead.
“Now that’s what im talking about!” Mikey encouraged.
“Lets just get this done with.” Raph barked.
They were heading for the entrance when they were stopped in their tracks. In front of them stood April in a skin tight shirt that shows her tummy and some leather jeans, her hair was up in a high ponytail and a purple scarf with black stripes lay around her neck. Donnie’s jaw dropped a bit. Mikey chuckled and closed his brothers jaw. Donnie realized what he just did and his cheeks went pink as he looked away from April.
“Nice costume!” Leo complimented.
“Yeah, but weren’t you supposed to go at Mona Lisa?” Raph gawked.
“Yes, but my friend wanted to be her really bad, so I let her and made my own costume.” April smiled and went over to Donnie. “So mad scientist how do I look.”
Donnie looked down at him and started twirling his fingers. “You look great April.”
“Really?”
Donnie nodded and cleared his throat. April smiled and started off. “Lets go shall we.”
They headed off.
Loud noises blared through the house, April stopped in front of the house. “My friend should be here any minute.”
“April!” A voice called over from behind them. The turtles turned to see a girl in a skin tight lizard costume with a shell back pack on was making her way over. A pink scarf laid around her neck, hugging her. Her black hair had a pink boa in it. Her big oval shaped eyes light up as the house light loomed over her. Raph noticed the girls eyes were turquoise. He blinked as he felt his body froze as she smiled. His eyes widened. She looks…..awesome! He gawked at her as she introduced herself to his brothers, he heard her soothing voice ring about in his ears. “Hey Im Esme!” She greeted.
Leo took it upon himself to intoduce his brothers. “Im Leo, Donnie, Mikey and---”
“Hey whats with Raph?” Mikey asked as he waved a hand in front of his face. “Yo, Raph!”
Donnie noticed that look, a smirk appeared on his face. His big brother was love struck. Oh this is pure gold, Donnie thought. Donnie smacked Raph’s head knocking Raph out of his daze. Raph glared at Donnie intending on hurting him when Donnie pointed at the Esme. “Introduce yourself Raph.”
Raph scowled at Donnie then looked at Esme, he curled his lip up and pushed past her and rushed inside. He didn’t have time for stupid girls or letting that strange feeling consume him again. He leaned against the stair case and crossed his arms. He watched his brothers enter and separate, April went with Donnie and Mikey while Esme went to stand beside Raph.
“What do you want?” Raph growled.
Esme raised a brow. “Standing here isn’t allowed?”
“Not near me it isn’t.”
“Well guess what, get over it, im standing here.” She retorted, crossing her arms across her chest. Raph stewed in silent. His eyes shifted over to the girl beside him. Her black hair laid upon her shoulders. He beautiful eyes light up as the lights changed colors from above, her costume fit her in all the right places. Raph felt his face getting hot. He covered his cheeks with one hand. Is he blushing?
“Hey!” He jumped at the sudden outburst from the girl beside him. Her eyes were on him. “Why did you even come if your gonna just stand around.”
Raph hated feeling like this, he sat his hands on his hips.
“And what business of that is yours?”
Esme scowled. “Sorry,  just asking.” She smirked a little and got closer to him, close enough to where their hands were touching. Raph backed up against the wall, surprised at what this girl was doing to him. “So why are you here?”
Raph looked away. “My little brother wanted to come, and I was told they had wrestling here.”
“Wrestling? You like that as well?”
That caught Raphs attention. “Yeah! I cant believe you do.”
“And why is that?”
“Because well you’re a girl, don’t girls usually like you know girl things.”
Esme narrowed her eyes at Raph. “That’s so sexist.”
Raph cocked his head. “Well, I didn’t know girls liked that stuff.”
“Not all girls, but most.” Esme smiled a bit. “Wanna go watch upstairs?”
“Upstairs?”
Esme nodded and hugged his arm. “Lets go tomato boy.”
“Hey! I am not a tomato---”
“You face says different.” Esme giggled and led him up the stairs and into a quiet room. Esme went for the TV and got to the wrestling station. She sat on the bed and looked up at Raph, who was confused onto what to do next. “You do know you can sit. I wont bite…..much.” Esme winked. Making Raph’s cheeks turn bright red. She laughed.
Raph crossed his arms and turned his head away. “Oh come on tough guy, stop being a sour puss and sit.”
Raph hesitated at first before he plopped on the bed beside her. She gazed at the TV while his eyes were on her, he knew they should have been on the TV but he couldn’t shake off this feeling. Oh god was he falling in love with this girl, that cant be, no way in hell. He hardly knew her plus she was human, he wasn’t about to suffer like his little brother. No way. He needed to get out now, wrestling or no wrestling. Raph got up and rushed out the bedroom, he was out the front door in seconds, ignoring the girl who followed him. “Hey where are you going!” She caught up to him and grabbed his arm, he pulled back in a fast motion. She frowned up at him.
“Look don’t be friend me, I don’t need friends, I got enough to deal with.” He snapped. Esme felt a ping of sadness, along with anger, that anger inside her won and she growled up at him in defense. “Who said I wanted to be your friend anyways! I was just trying to be nice you jerk!”
“Well who said I wanted you to be nice to me, don’t you have some barbies to play with or something.”
Esme scoffed. “No, that must be you since your acting like the girl here.”
Raph glared down at the human girl. “Leave me alone.” He told her before walking off. Esme watched him go with irritation. How could she ever fall for that infuriating man? He was just such a jerk. Esme went back to the party and met April at the drink stand. April looked over at her. “Hey what’s wrong? Your face is red.”
Esme growled. “That guy is the most infuriating, insensitive, wimpiest man I have ever laid eyes on!”
April laughed. “Don’t worry about Raph Esme, he tends to be ornery with a lot, come have a drink with us.”
Esme smiled at April and shook her head. “Thanks but I think im going to head home.”
April frowned. “Ill walk you home---”
“Thanks but no thanks. I need to cool off.” Esme said before walking through the crowd and out the door.
April had a bad feeling about letting her friend go, and usually her bad feelings are right.
Esme untied her scurf and sighed. Three weeks of being here and she already hated it. She leaned up against a wall of a book store. She wished her mother were here to help her through this, at least her mother was there for her, unlike her stupid father Esme shook her head as she recoiled up some past memories. She started walking. A few moments later a robot landed right in front of her making her yelp in surprise. As she backed away she felt a solid object encounter her. She looked up to see another blue robot. She turned around to that robot and looked back at the other. She looked side to side, robot to robot before doing a back flip and standing her hands her legs split, knocking both robots onto the ground. Once she was back up on her feet she made a run for it.
She didn’t get to far, She felt a sting go into her back and spread through out her body, looking up through her blurry vision she saw a robotic man in a black suit and another blue robot.
Who were these people? Esme thought before darkness consumed her.
