Mystic Mayhem: Part 3

{Photo above is Aria's new mystic weapons; Their powers are similar to that of Thor's hammer or Captain Boomerang's boomerang; They always return to the person that threw them}

Third Person POV:

The turtles are now in the lair, crouching behind Splinter's chair in the middle of the living room. All four of them keep their eyes trained on a cabinet on the wall to their right labeled "Do Not Touch". It contains personal items belonging to Splinter, who's sitting in his chair, his eyes never leaving the TV as he watches his favorite show, 'Scorpion Treadmill'. On that shelf is a compass-like object that bears the same 'M'-shaped logo as the wall that Aria fell through. They need to get the object, but how can they grab it without attracting suspicion from their father?

Raph: "You're right. It's just like the symbol those creeps have."

Mikey: "Should we just ask him for it?"

Leo: "And what do we say if he asks why we want it? That we need it to go after our sister, who disappeared into a wall after our priceless weapons were destroyed by mystical jogger guys?"

Raph gently hits his brother over the head at the lack of restraint in his words. Splinter might hear everything he just said. Luckily, he's too enthralled in his program.

Raph: "Shh! Ok, here's the plan. We gotta get Splinter out of the room."

The four of them then slide in front of the TV screen as they bow their heads in respect to Master Splinter. Raph raises his head to look Splinter in the eye as he speaks.

Raph: "Hey, Pop. Any chance we can have the living room tonight?"

Splinter slurps milk from the carton through a straw as he begins to laugh hysterically in response.

Splinter: "And I thought Purple and Grey were the funny ones."

Donnie turns toward his brothers with an 'I-told-you-so' look.

Donnie: "I told you guys Aria and I were the funniest. What if I hooked it up so that you could watch in bed, huh? Wouldn't that be even lazier?"

Splinter: "No, my butt is asleep, just how I like it. Now, leave me be! They're about to break out the scorpions! "

Splinter then turns his gaze back towards the TV as he laughs at the show's antics. The turtles then slide back to crouch behind the chair as they try to figure out a new plan.

Raph: "Plan one didn't work. New plan. All right, listen up."

Raph grabs a sheet of paper with a crayon, and slams them onto a table as he begins to draw up a blueprint of his plan.

Raph: "We need ten chickens, a gallon of rubber cement, and-"

Leo then rises his left hand into the air to reveal that he has the compass.

Leo: "Leon's got it."

The others look to him in astonishment.

Raph: "How'd you get it?"

Leo shrugs his shoulder with his signature sly grin in response.

Leo: "You know he always passes out after milk and cake."

The four of them peek over the chair to find that Leo was correct. Splinter is now fast asleep, his meal on the ground, as he snores the rest of the night away. So, the turtles immediately run back to the construction site where April is impatiently waiting for them. As she gives them a grateful smile, Raph steps towards the wall with the compass in hand, ready to solve the mystery of where his little sister had gone.
