Immortals Beginnings (About 8 months after Years gone by)

They were not doing much, so as he hung and spoke with his brother until Raphie and Dieair took themselves to bed, and over food Mikey keeps his mind and self busy as needed by sketching the tiny Beeyverns, this 'tome' of recycled leathers and handcrafted papers was newly folded together for this purpose, noting the new critters springing up in places that his and Raphael's niece and nephew had travelled into his world.

A brief glance or two at the other new hatchlings sleeping bundled together near his and Lilos eggs in that trolley. Like he and his brothers used to do when so small and new and did on and off throughout life and even now as adult grown turtles may do from time to time when in need of the closeness of their brotherhood for comfort.

His drawings are exact as much as can be from photos snapped and sent. Colors he will add laters. And if Raph or Dieair ask, well he will say what he knows.

Amazing.

Shadow hangs back, watching amazed, if a tad gross at first cause of the weird sounds Yoshi makes as he coughs up and then holds ... And egg.

Tapping Leo's shoulder. " going to stay here a little while whilst that thing is running about to run interference. With Stitch if he agrees to stay with me until there is a horde of Leroys here to help out. Can I have one of your swords? Surely regrowing limbs or a head will slow that thing down." and unlike that thing Shadow has training.

A smile at Chris. " Rick has given me the okay to be here, is there anyone else I should check in with?"

Leo smiles and nodded, grateful Shadow was willing to help more. One hand on Yoshi's shoulder and the other undoing one of his sword holsters to gather it up to give to Shadow. Leaving it to Chris to answer her question even though he could have.

Libby held out her arms ready to get her dragon! She was not expecting Yoshi to vomit up an egg and was sorta grossed out. But soon there was a heavy egg in her arms. She held on to it for as long as she could. But soon she had to gently put the egg down in the soft grass.

Do I have to sit on it to hatch it? Will that make me a mom? DAD! I'm gonna be a mom!

Yoshi rumbles a chuckle and tilts his head a bit, laying himself down to watch, Leo kneels to listen to the egg, a little awed! And gasps a little, " Libby, if you listen you can here the hatchling moving..." peeping noises and scratching, soft for now.

The dragonet inside had felt the change in warmth, seen the difference in light, and was wriggling about to get it's feets up to start kicking its way free.

Shadow is too even as she straps the holster and sword into place.

Stitch is thinking about it, really he should stay until this thing is dealt with one way or other. Shadow can match it in a fight sure. But he was indestructible and more importantly, fire proof. Even dragon flame fire proof!

So he sneaks Leo's Tphone to message his bestie to let her know.

Shen smiles at Spike and shrugs. " probably a good idea to ask yeah, especially when we all know more about them and the other critters... Mmmm not a bad idea Uncle, if we knew what kinda homes they likes." smiling as the little beeyvern closes it's big for its head eyes enjoying the attention, then arcs it's little back.

Erica chuckles, " very protected, may have to give it a name." gentle encouragement for her niece to pick a name.

Chris was equally as grossed out by how the egg was presented. He covered his mouth to mask the small gag but tried to assist Libby with supporting it...but....ewww!! Once the egg was safely on the ground he wiped his hands on his pants....

"Be sure to wash your hands! And ...I don't think you'll need to sit on it, I don't think Dragons sit on their eggs...." It seemed the thing was trying to hatch. Oh boy. He was really hoping to have time to discuss this with Flag. Too late now!


"I'm guessing baby...whatever it is will eat dead things too, right?"

He acknowledged Shadow, shifting his attention to her. "If Flag gave you the okay, then you're good. Though I think Digger is in charge today. Harley's been on Flag's ass about spending more time at home." He told her.


Jade giggled at the happenings around them, and the little bee dragon....oh... it was so cute!! She was giving it all of the affection and pats!

"I've always wanted a pet. Maybe we should call her Poptart! Or...Pooptart..." She chuckled, sticking her tongue out at Spike.

Libby lightly tapped the egg with a finger.

Hello little baby. You need a name....

She thought on it. She didn't know if her dragon would be a boy or a girl though. And it had to be a cool name.

I'll name yoooooou Vlad! Vlad the dragon, Unless it's a girl then I'll name her Vivi.

Yoshi is amused he shakes his head at Chris's question and has to think a moment before lowering his head to make contact with either Chris or Liberty or his own father to tell one of them what this one would eat.

The tapping makes the hatchling within squeak in answer cracking it's shell as it kicks it's back legs, long cracks that dribbled the clear fluid.

Leo takes Yoshi's answer and smiles at Chris, then at Libby, " Yoshi says your new little friend may be a bark eater, leaves, grasses but mostly bark. And those are some good names. And don't worry about the blood here, see the inside of the shell has veins that help get air and water from Shell surface to the hatchling." answer, and then in a gentle tone as the cracking egg leaks the clear fluid and then a little blood explains what is happening so Libby does not worry. Her little friend will be okay.

And a almost Dinosaurian head, a a raptors, with large emerald eyes blinks through its goop covered face at Libby, the almost bird squeak one of delight!.

Yoshi stays still and quiet watching.

~

Over there the Beeyvern is having the best time getting pats!.

Shen grins at her cousins giggles. " suppose couldn't hurt to offer Pop-Tart a home to stay int at your place if Uncle Donnie doesnt mind helping us make one, and I can grow a patch of flowers for it to forage in." a grin back at her mother and curious look at Spike not sure if he'd want to help but she doesn't see why not.

Vic gave Mikko a squeeze. "Well, the closer it gets to baby time, you're gonna be too full of baby to want to venture out " He teased with a small kiss.

[color=red["We'll get stuff, don't worry."[/color] He tried to sound convincing, even though he was worried that thing would hang around until she took what she wanted, or was dealt with.

Libby nodded. She looked up at Leo and Yoshi.

He'll eat plants? Only plants? Will he still eat the bodies of my enemies?

She didn't really care...Too much. It was just cool to have a dragon! She gave the egg another light tap.

Evelyn rocked Devon in her arms watching her mom and Vic. You don't have to worry, I'll be with her to protect the group. She assured. Though doubted that Jesse woulle let her go.

Mikko smooched Vic once again and nodded. Whoever is out there, we can take her one. But just in case I'll stay home. Might have to protect the house.

The still air above the farm was suddenly desturbed by the sounds of three large, black helicopters. Bishop hovered over the farm for a bit scoping out the place. Then, from on of the copters a metal net fell. It was large enough to catch one of the dragons. The net was set to capture Yoshi.

Libby let out a scream and hugged her egg.

Digger was seeing Sherry and the kids out when Bishop showed up. He pushed the three of them back in the house and grabbed his boomerangs. Stay here He told everyone and ran out the house to see what was going on.

Erica was all relaxed.

Then not.

" Donnie,Jade get anyone out side in side. Shen with me." racing off towards her son Shen right on her mother's heals.

Leonardo stiffened, surpressing a growl, patting Libby's little shoulder gently. " it's okay, Shadow will carry it go get inside and stay safe." Shadow would indeed help reaching to grab up the cracking squeaking leaky egg to take it wherever Libby lead.

Stitch races for Yoshi with Erica the two climbing up his leg.

The three wyvern swooped from on high shrieking, Greyworm swooping into the net. The other two angling down to swoop up Shen and Leo as Yoshi blasts a warning streaming of flames upwards aiming for any of the choppers, so hot he will melt and twist any metal not made for his heat, his mother aiming a shot at a chopper window with a armour piercing arrow head. Not letting loose yet though until close enough.

Digger ran into the commotion. No one take down those choppers! We don't want them falling into the farm!

The choppers were high enough that the flames didn't reach them. Two of them shot at the dragons flying. the chain net tightened around Yoshi. Pinning his wings to his body. his flames would do little to the heavy metal netting.

Shooting at Claw, Greyworm and Bob do nothing, their already dead things. Failing to get himself captured Greyworm howls angrily.

Erica curses, turning to Shen and Stitch as the net comes down, " off! No, go back to your siblings, help Shadow here Stitch..." as the net tightens she calls for Yoshi not to struggle, don't potentially hurt himself, pulling off her armour and shoving it and her weapons at Shen, at Stitch.

Leo now knows Boomer thinks that poorly of them, as if after helping with that thing they would go out of their way to perform aerial combat right over The Farm! Risking them all, including his own brother and niece.

Yoshi didn't even roar! And his flames had only been an warning shot up in the air!

He doesn't answer, just rushes for his son and wife as Shen and Stitch drop clear caught by Claw and Bob, Leo hurrying, hoping to catch the net to go along!

No rest for the wicked. The sounds and earth shaking vibrations from the helicopter alerted to the intrusion. Flag was quick to hand Blaze over to Harley with stern orders for her to stay inside and protect the kids....but Harley was never good at taking orders. She accompanied her kids to the bedroom, but she had no intentions of staying put....

"Star, you gotta keep an eye on your sister and little brother, can you do that?"

Star was terrified, but gave a small nod. Harley kissed the top of the girl's head, then rushed outside to join Flag...

It seemed that Bishop had doubled back and was trying to capture Yoshi. Flag rushed to help Leo and Erica anyway he could, ordering those of his people who weren't fighters inside. Jade was also quick to help escort others inside, offering to take Libby when Chris made it known that he was staying to help defend the farm and try to help free Yoshi.


Harley had headed off to the armory and soon joined the chaos, a bazooka thrown over her shoulder. She took aim at the helicopter, but hesitated firing the weapon. She realized that if the copter crashed inside the fences, lives would be at risk....

"HEY BISHOP! LET THE DRAGON GO! COME DOWN HERE AND FIGHT!!"

Digger thought he had everything well under control. Kinda. But he did appreciate Flag coming out to help. He spotted Harley and ran over to her.

Do not shoot that in here. We're not taking down the choppers. Too dangerous. Wait. You should be watching the kids!

Libby went with Jade and Shadow back to her house.

Bishop had caught his fish so to speak, he was reeling the dragon in. Sorry, we can't stay. He said on the loud speaker. A tranquilizer was shot at Leo and one at yoshi.

When Mikko heard the commotion she looked out the window to see what was going on.

Damn. Bishop is back, looks like he's after the dragons.

She turned to Evelyn and Vic. No one is going out there until he leaves.

Sam was also drawn to her window. She watched what was going on in awe.

Someone is trying to kidnap one of those dragons. Should we help?

Lucky was quick to stand and help Daisy up. He took her hand and ran back to his house with her. Lydia took Gabe's hand and attempted to do the same with him.

We should get out of here.

Don had a small EMP. and electromagnetic pulse. He could take down one of the choppers machaincs with it but there was no way to reach them.

I need to get up there. close to the one Bishop is in to attach this to his Chopper.

Digger might have been against taking them down, and he understood why, but they had to save their family.

Harley glanced over at Digger, frowning. "Yeah, but Bishop don't need to know that!" She had hoped the threat of being blown from the sky would be enough to get Bishop to abort mission, but that didn't seem to be the case...

"The kids are fine. I left Star in charge. You worry too much. It's kinda cute.."

Directed by Stitch Claw swoops towards Donnie, the little alien waving his free arms, all three and calling out to the tall turtle. " ride?" Offer is there for what ever Donnie needs.

Leo nods at Rick glad, but also not to see him in this mess... Sword slashing fast upwards catching that dart and flicking it back on its path, either it will hit where it came from or miss - just wasn't hitting him! " not over the houses Donnie!" maybe out over the water sure but not near the homes. A tap against Flag to join him as a now rider less Bob and Greyworm swoop around coming to Leo's call for them. Grab a ride or not, Leo puts his swords away to hurry and gather Erica's tossed down bow and arrows. Greyworm swooping him off his feet and into the air!

And the other tranq bounced off Yoshi's scales. Though the young dragon glaring up at the choppers, his warning fire blast was nothing to a full throated furious inferno and if he gets out that's is what he is turning on these choppers! Erica lays flat and still against Yoshi.

Bob drops Shen in the pond and she swims deep to the floor reaching to gather and grow and gather and wind the long reeds around herself, building a beast of reeds, the water churning as the beast grew, then reed monster breaching the surface like some muddy green golem shaped blue whale, one of its arms swinging out trying to catch her brothers netting as Bishops voice announces he is leaving!

Hopefully no gets a lucky shot at her here in the reed monsters 'heart' controlling it!

Don hopped on the offered ride and soon was in the air and towards Bishop. He held the device in his hand and lifted himself up a bit to reach. But before anything could be placed on the Chopper, Bishop's men opened fire at Don, hitting him multiple times with large bullets.

Don dropped the EMP and fell off the dragon, falling to the ground.

Guns were soon pointed at the thing that climbed out of the pond. Bishop ordered the men to shoot everyone but Yoshi. And soon there was gun fire aimed at everyone.

Digger grinned at Harley. But he wasn't going to let her take down the birds. That was until they started shooting up the place.

Ok you win. Take em down. Just try not to blow up anyone's house.
