The Last Grand Adventure ____________________________________________________________ day 1 That day when I told you the dragons came was 2 days ago. We don't know where Angeline went, or what happened to her, and I don't think it's good. But, let me tell you from square one. When Leo tugged at me, I wrote my last words, and turned you off, and closed you. Then, I picked you up, as well as the key to the crystal's room that Angeline gave us, and ran. We all ran down corridors to the end of the hall, but before we could turn to the dark room, Dragon Lord grabbed Emma. She fought him off, but when we all turned around after Emma returned to us, the dragons were pointing lasers at us. They were holding Angeline, who was struggling. "Give us the key." demanded Dragon Lord. Angeline shook her head violently. "No!" shouted Leo. Then, a fight began, and we were all forced to a part of the building where there was a large, pink-watered, shimmering pool surrounded by a brick frame. Dragon Lord said that if we don't give him the key, he'll throw us into it. Angeline got her mouth free from one of the dragons, and shouted to us, "Run! Run or you'll be doom . . ." the dragon got her again. We didn't give up the key, so one by one, we were thrown into the pool, except it wasn't a pool. We kept sinking further and further down, and the liquid was thick and pink, and only if you breathed through your mouth, you could breath in a sweetish smelling substance. There was the sound of a pretty, but weird, sort of music that made you fall into a trance that makes you stop struggling, and just let go. I saw you floating slowly around, but it didn't register to grab at you. After a few moments in this weird sort of trance, we fell, hard, onto a concrete surface. Everyone threw up pink goo, so I guess we must've ingested it too. Then, right before my very eyes, everyone disappeared. It was only me and you. I started shouting after I finished coughing up goo. "Venus! Jasmine! Geri! Where are you?!" I shouted. I got answers from all over, everyone could hear me. I soon found out that we were all in a maze, each one scattered in a different part, scared and worried. After seemingly hours, we discovered each other, all except for Vicky. She found us though, and her black eyeliner seemed a bit darker than usual. She gave us a queer look, and shot a laser at us. "Hey stop that! It's only us!"said MelB. She then turned to MelB, and shot at her, wonderfully missing. Then, I noticed that had a necklace with a blue pendant on. I told Venus, who successfully knocked it off, and Victoria fell. "What happened?" she asked after regaining some strength. "You were trying to zap us into fried chicken." said Mikey. We told her about the pendant. Nobody could identify the weird thing. Then, we heard a deep grumble in the distance. Leo said it was time to "Book". To where? We found a small, dark cave. It had bats in it, but they were more interested in the fruit that they had. We all hid in there until the next day. The next day, Raphael looked outside and saw a tall iron door on one wall. We all came out and saw that the door had a groove in it. Geri took the blue pendant chain out of her pocket, and saw that it matched the groove in the door. "What do I do?" asked Geri. "Stick it in I guess." said Donatello. She did so, and the door opened wide. We all carefully walked inside down a long corridor with marble flooring. Then, we heard an eerie sound that you could not hear, but then you could. It whispered in your ear and sent chills down your back, or shell. It was weird. Then, we saw a holographic figure of Angeline. "I had only enough time to record this message for you and send it with the secret door. The Dragons think I'm grabbing possessions. The door to the room where the crystal is, is down the hall, to the left. It has the words Inus Tanus Carpara written on the door. Open it with the key, but be careful, because inside is a worrier sworn to guard the evil so that it may wreak havoc again. He may be dead, or alive, but he's sneaky. (Gasp) I must go, the dragons are entering the room. Be safe my friends." said Angeline, and she slowly disappeared. All of us were scared, but we were together, so we had each other's strength, and we walked on, glancing behind us every step of the way. We reached the door with the inscription on it, Venus opened it with the key. Well, the worrior was dead, and there were a bunch of rats all over him. It was a really gross site. The stone was on a leather strap in a light, on a satin black cushion. Venus picked it up quickly and was about to destroy it, then Raphael, our door guard, warned us of dragons. I took out a velvet pouch that I got new earrings in from Angeline, and told Venus to stuff it in the pouch. She did, then we split, and ran to the nearest door. It was an iron one that was bolted shut. The dragons were just a few corners away, their scary voices could be heard ringing through the corridors. Dragon Lord bellowed out loudly when he found no stone in the room. We were all in a fix. Then Victoria showed us a cellar door that was open (shocking for her to be helpful), and we all ran through it. The door closed loudly, sending a boom through the corridors, and the dragons followed it. We raced down a winding staircase until we got to a room with no windows and only one really strong door. It was closed, and Mikey lit an old lamp. This is where I'm typing from now. Well, I have to cop some Z's before the leatherheads return, or find us. I just like to keep ya updated buddy. Night! ___________________________________________________________________________ day 3 I couldn't write for a day because of more adventure. While I was getting ready to sleep, we heard the dragons again. They found us in the closet-like room after Vicky undetainably sneezed from the dusty closet. We were cornered. Everyone backed up so far, that we fell into a trap door. We landed painfully on a stone surface that had big pools of lava all around. There were stone bridges and more. It was really odd, and creepy. The dragons jumped down too, so we climbed up a rocky hill, and ended up in a "hot" situation. There was a thin rock bridge to cross over where below us was a huge pool of molten (<- however you spell that) lava. The bridge was only as wide as the armrest on my sofa! So, we all had to cross one by one, or the bridge would break. It was hurry walking since the dragons were climbing up the hill, clumsily, but climbing anyway. Everyone made it across, but I was last. I had trouble crossing the wood bridge in the park over grass, how was I ever going to cross this thin little bridge over lava? I began to cross, but then I fell on my knees, clenching on to the bridge. I was scared and almost frozen. "Come on, hurry!" shouted Leo impatiently. "Guys, you wouldn't believe this, but I can't move." I said shakily. Then, since she was the lightest, MelC climbed on to the bridge, and took my hand. "Come on, the dragons are coming." she said. I slowly stood up, and crossed along with her. Before we left, we all helped Raphael throw a boulder onto the bridge, and it broke. Now, the dragons had to find another way to cross. We then ran to a cove where there was some rocks (I got tired of these hard things). Lava splurted up all around us. The dragons were heard coming our way. Then we all ran through a maze of rocks, and ended up on a rock hill that was still underground, and we were face to face with the dragons. I almost fainted. Vicky let out a loud shreik. Then, a huge fight began, we tossed the velvet pouch with the stone in it all the through the fight. When Emma got it, a dragon pushed her over, and took away the stone, gave it to Dragon Lord, and that's when the really bad stuff started happening. Dragon Lord put the stone to his armor, and he began glowing with a dark sort of light, then he was trying to destroy us all (like he never did before). He got Vicky, who had a third degree burn on her leg, and she went into shock, which scared me half to death. Geri knew how to care for a situation like that, if only she wasn't busy trying to fight the dragons. But she shouted out directions to me. Vicky awoke in a few minutes, but I had to use my sock to wrap the burn. One dragon tried to attack me, but I stood up, and beat the mess outta him. The dragons often underestimated me for being a sissy, but they always found out otherwise. I went back to Vicky, and had her hide between some rocks. After that, seeing that Dragon Lord was distracted with something else, I tried to take the stone off of him, but he blew me to the edge of a cliff. Luckily, Venus helped me up. Near the end of the fight, all hope seemed to be lost, but Venus thought of something. The stone drains its host of its independence so that it can't live without the stone. So if she destroyed the stone, she could destroy Dragon Lord too. It's like killing two bugs with one stone. She told me, and anyone who she could get to talk to about her idea, except the dragons o'course. So to clear her path, we fought harder and stronger, and one by one, more dragons fell. We tossed the ones that were too weak, into the lava. Venus then started concentrating on the stone, and with one burst of energy, struck the stone, and it broke apart like a building just collapsed. Dragon Lord began quivering and bellowing, and electrical currents ran over him. With one big push, we pushed Dragon Lord into the lava as well. By the way, lava doesn't kill dragons, they bathe in the stuff! But it acts like water on them, if they are in it too deep, and too long, they drown. Wick was still left over to destroy. He went over to Vicky to try to attack her in her lame state, but she was at least strong enough to toss Wick into the lava, and she did so. All was over with the dragons. We went back to the spot where we got underground, and got back up. We left the secret door, and got sucked back up into the pink gooey pool. We spit-up goo at the top, and entered the castle again. We were searching for Angeline. By this time, you had burn spots on you, and your handle was broken, but Donatello promised to fix you. He knew how important writing in my laptop was to me. We found Angeline tied up in chains with a lock, the key was on the door. Leonardo untied her, and she got up, although unusually weakly. "I'm drained of all of my energy, the Dragon Lord took it because of the energy he lost during his journey." said Angeline weakly. "Will you be okay?" asked Emma. "Just fine. I'm glad to see you all alright. Have you destroyed the stone?" asked Angeline. "Yep, and Dragon Lord, his army, and his little servant too." I said. "Very well done. I must go, take the path northwest to go home, let the weather be with you." said Angeline. Then she left to her energy chamber. We all went back to the cottage, we used the dragons' buggy though. And that's where I'm writing from now. Tomorrow we're going back to the sewers. This has been an eventful 3 weeks to a month. Bye! ____________________________________________________________________________ day 1: home sweet home Yesterday we chilled, and packed out stuff. Today we came home on the underground travel ship. The Spice Girls said "bye" to us after getting to the sewer, then called a cabby. Then Jasmine and I said "bye" to the Turtles, and we went home through this vortex thing that Donny invented. Master Splinter went home, and my mom freaked out when she saw me after a whole month went by. The Spice Girls were announced back in a second on television. My mom asked where we were, and a whole bunch of other things, but Jasmine and I just said, "Oh, nothing." My mom gave us a queer look, so we told her a false story about monsters from Calamazoo. She was mad, but ceased her questions. My dear laptop, out there, you took a lickin' and kept on tickin'. Donny was also great help with maintaining your working order. Oh well, I'll write to you the next time we have a whole new adventure, but I hope it's not anytime soon!! Bye-bye! _________________________________________________________________________________________ That was a camping trip!!!!
