An Adventure's Beginning By: DaPrincess aka Y.M.G. ___________________________________________________________________________ day 1 pt 1: Spice Girls meet Turtles Well, the title describes it. Our favorite singers met our favorite heroes. Victoria fainted, but the others stopped and stared. Geri said that this is "mad." But after a while, (a long while), everyone got acquainted and was well on their way to becoming good ole "chaps." ___________________________________________________________________________ day 1 pt2: The Thunder While in the evening playing a game of cards, there was a rumble. Outside was a large Dragon Lord saying some kind of junk about "taking over the world". Donny is planning on uncovering his untested travel ship so that we can scram somewhere to make a plan. I had only enough time to write this, ya know, keep you updated. But now Jasmine is yanking my shirt, it's time to pack, we're leaving tonight. ______________________________________________________________________________ day 3: Donatello bundled us all into the ship along with food, clothes, blankets, sheets, maps, and a whole bunch of other necessities. Vicky complained about not getting enough sleep, but she soon started fearing for her life like the rest of us when Donny put on the ship. Master Splinter went to stay at Andre's house. He's a blind man who gets no visitors (poor guy) he'll never suspect a thing. So anyway, the ship zig-zagged through sewer tunnels, and we almost crashed like a dozen times, and he couldn't get the thing out of hyperspeed. We ended up at the cottage smashing upward from the ground. We all looked terrible! Us humans' hair was all every which way. The Turtles were all looking shocked and what not. It was a sight! Kinda funny now if you think about it. But we were all glad about being safe. ___________________________________________________________________________________ day 1: In the wilderness This uninhabited cottage has only bedrooms, and there are 12 of us. 8 girls and 4 boys. Us girls took the larger bedroom, but some of us still ended up sleeping on the floor. Jasmine, I, and Victoria got the bed last night. Venus, MelB, MelC, Emma, and Geri got the floor. They all had blankets though. Tonight I'm on the floor with Jasmine, MelC, Vicky, and Venus. The boys don't really used the bed for much more than something to lean against. We asked if we could have it, but they said no. Raphael is the only one who really gets on the bed to sleep. ________________________________________________________________________________________ day 3: Today we began brainstorming on what Dragon Lord was doing. A small team of 5: Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, Venus, and MelC, all went to check out the area around us yesterday. They found a large brick building on a water edge that felt hot to the touch. When they looked inside, they saw Dragon Lord and his army. It was a more complex compound than the one in New York. Donatello is now creeping around the building charting the exact locations of things, and how heavily guarded the areas are. We're all worried about him, and hope that he's all right. But I think he will be, he's pretty good at being stealthy. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ day 5: Donny got back safely (thank goodness!) Us ladies take turns being in the bed at night. I fear that we'll soon starve to death because of the shortage of food. It's partly Mikey's fault because he keeps going for a midnight snack. He didn't eat one last night, so today he took one of Emma's doughnuts. She went all karate on him, and started shouting at him and getting all mad. Then Emma put the doughnuts in the cupboard and stamped out of the kitchen to go cool off. Mikey's learned something; don't mess with Emma's doughnuts! ______________________________________________________________________________________________ day 7: We have found out something about the Dragons. Dragon Lord has found a legend of a crystal that had pure evil energy. Venus confirmed it to be the stone of Hunkai (?) Weird name, but she knows how to destroy it . . . if we can get to it first. You see, even though it's evil, the stone itself is only as strong as a rock. So Venus broke a rock, she can do the same to the stone, which might be only a tad stronger. Victoria looked very displeased when Jasmine said that we might have to go on another trip. Sometimes I think that we should've left Victoria back in New York, but then again, what would the girls' agent say if he saw only one Spice Girl? Naw, Vick is stuck with us (sigh). ________________________________________________________________________________________________ day 9: Tomorrow we're setting out to find the stone, apparently the dragons are too. So we have to get a move on. The food we packed is 100 times less than scrumptious: Old, hard bread, warm orange juice, tree bark that contains some sweet sap for the bread, stale doughnuts, rotting cheese (Mikey'll love it), and salami. We each have to carry a heavy backpack on us. Venus, MelC, and Geri were able to somehow make 3 blankets into sleeping bags. We already had 9 sleeping bags, we just needed the extra 3. Leo had to stop Vicky from packing a whole lot of make-up, brushes and combs. So, all of us girls, except Venus, helped each other get our hair into a ponytail. This way it's neat (hardly a concern on a mission), conventional (I suppose), and easy to manage. Thought I don't know why we'd even be worrying about our hair at a time like this. Well, time to to to bed, we have to go out to some pretty far places tomorrow. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ day 10: morning Everyone is up, and we're eating the last hard bagels with some sweet sap on them. Since I want to write, and there's nothing else to write, I'll just tell you what all us peoples are wearing. And it goes: MelB: Jeans, cotton T-shirt, jean jacket, socks, hiking boots Emma: Short dress with tough leggings, socks, hiking boots, and a polyester jacket Geri: Jeans, polyester T-shirt, leather jacket (I told her not to bring it though), socks, hiking boots Vicky: Stretch pants, sweater, suede boots, light jacket, socks MelC: Stretch pants, Tank top, light jacket, boots, and socks Me: Jeans, cotton T-shirt, hiking boots, socks, and denim jacket Jasmine: Jeans, Cotton T-shirt, hiking boots, socks, denim jacket Someone slid my backpack on for me just now, it's time to go. I'll take you along with my dear little laptop. Let's just hope that all goes well (as if it ever does!) ______________________________________________________________________________________________________
