Full Title: Lost In Lies Chapter 1 Written Version Chapter 1, The Pizza place TBW: D3ath mentions and mild language. I scout the city. Looking for the turtles. All I really know about them is their species and that they’re mutants like me. The oldest is an alligator snapping turtle, another is a red ear slider, one is a soft shell, and the youngest is a spotted turtle. That’s about all the information Mama gave me. Besides not to tell them I work for her of course. After hours of searching I finally reach an ally. I pant as I sit down beside a dumpster. All that running made me exhausted. I take deep breaths trying to keep my stamina up. I need to keep searching. My brain says. About three to ten minutes later I finally regain my strength. I hop up some stairs heading back to the roof, when I notice something in the corner of my eye. The manhole cover that was in front of me earlier starts to move up. I jolt up to the roof, ready to expect anything. I crouch down behind an air vent onto of the building. “Come on guys! We have to hurry if we’re going to make it!” Someone says. “Leo. We have forty five minutes.” Someone else says. I look down and see the turtles I am supposed to get rid of. I gasp and jump behind the air vent as one looks this way. “Did you guys see that?” One says. “It was probably just a bird.” Another replies. “Come on guys! We don’t want to waste our time on a bird!” The blue one says anxiously. “Alright, let’s go.” The alligator snapping turtle says. I sigh in relief as they keep walking. I have to follow them. So I did. They went to a dumpster and held out one of Draxum’s magic keys. No way. I think as they open the door to the city. They jump in and I follow quick behind. I jump in at the last second and look around. “Woah.” I whisper as I see all sorts of strange things. I slowly follow behind them as they reach a.. Pizza place? They open the door and go inside. Really Mama? These are your greatest enemies? I ponder as I walk into the pizza place. “Hello.” A skeleton like yokai says. “Can I help you?” He asks. “Table for one please.” I say pulling down my mask. “Alright.” He replies grabbing a menu. I remember the time Mama gave me yokai currency for my birthday. She told me to use it when I really needed too. I don’t know how she got it. Probably stealing from Draxum- but I’m not complaining. After I sit down I look at the menu. I mean hey, it’s a pizza place! Why not order some pizza. The waiter comes back and asks “What will you get Ma’am?” I look up from the menu. “A pepperoni pizza with anchovies please.” I reply politely. I don’t want attention drawn to me so I act normally. The waiter writes it down then walks off to the back. I wait about five to ten minutes for my food. The waiter comes out with about five pizzas, drops four off at the turtles table, and then heads over to mine. “Here you are Ma’am.” He says handing me my pizza. Look I know it’s typical for a cat to get anchovies but come on! They’re so good! I pick up a slice and take a bite. Woah! That’s good! I honestly forgot about my mission until I was finishing up. I see the turtles get up and walk over to the counter. “Here you go!” The blue one says handing over a few tokens. The skeleton sighs “That’s not enough. You need two more.” They stop in their tracks. “What do you mean that’s not enough? It’s always enough!” The blue one continues. “I raised my prices. You need to look at the menus harder.” The skeleton says.
