Officer: "We found one of the...uh... turtles."
Interrogator: "Bring them in. Perhaps they can give us more information than these girls are."
Officer: "...it's the yellow one..."

The girls finish up their breakfast and run outside to meet the yellow-masked turtle who was wandering around. "Hello!" Alice purred.
"Hi!" said the turtle.
"What's your-"
Annalise grabbed the turtle by the front of his shell, growling. "Who are you?"
45Please respect copyright.PENANAo4jqZTTQXE
"My name's Mikey," The turtle replied, surprisingly unfrightened, "What's your name?" Annalise growled, staring into Mikey's eyes. "Release the turtle, Anna," Luna said. Anna exhaled deeply, releasing him. "My name is Alice! Nice to meet you!" Alice purred.

"Oh, and these are my friends; Luna, Penelope, Jessie, and Annalise!" she said, introducing her teammates. "If anythin' I'm just yer babysitter..." Annalise muttered. "Nice to meet you to!" said Mikey.

Mikey looked around. These people...er, nonhumans...mutants? They were friendlier than his brothers made them out to be. There was one house that was full of people. Some were even sitting on the porch conversing with each other and they smiled as a woman brought them a glass of orange juice.

Everyone was so...happy. Okay well maybe Annalise wasn't so happy. But then the words that Leo said earlier came back to him. "Don't believe their smiles." Perhaps Annalise knows something.

Mikey's gaze darts over to a police car that parks by the entrance of the neighborhood. What were they here for? Mikey turned back around. The girls had disappeared. Many others started going into hiding as well, leaving Mikey out in the open by himself.

Mikey looked around. A werewolf was motioning for him to quickly come inside.

Meanwhile...
Two officers were sitting inside the police car. One was a rookie, one was...well...not. Aiden and Brandon were their names. Aiden stared curiously. Like Alice, he had blue eyes and blonde hair. Today was his first day going on patrol. "Why are they hiding?"
45Please respect copyright.PENANAraNDmjghsA
Brandon shrugged. "Dunno." Brandon, like Jessie, was an African American and could be quite mouthy at times. "You think they might be doing something illegal?" Aiden asked. Brandon looked at Aiden with a raised brow. "You really think an entire neighborhood would do something illegal?" "I mean...you never know..." Aiden said, seeming a bit unsure.
45Please respect copyright.PENANA8wvOzgUaBe
There was an awkward silence. "You really thought you'd be gettin some action on yo first day, huh?" Brandon asked. "Kinda..." Aiden murmured. A few minutes go by. No speeding cars...no broken tail lights...no reckless driving either.
45Please respect copyright.PENANAhrkd8xsERw
"Any luck on that search for your daughter?" Brandon asked. Aiden shook his head. "Sorry man." Brandon murmured. Aiden sighed. "It's fine." A woman knocks on the window and Aiden rolls it down. "Are you alright ma'am?" Brandon asks.
45Please respect copyright.PENANA0mJwSYWvuR
"Yes I'm fine," the woman replied, "I just had a question for you guys."
45Please respect copyright.PENANAw4jFTLAFf5
"...okay..." said Aiden.
45Please respect copyright.PENANAINcPspy5fC
"Are you here to execute the freaks that live here?" the woman asked. Brandon and Aiden stared at the woman, visibly confused. "The...freaks?" Aiden wondered. "Yeah. The werewolves, mutants, dragons and all those other nonhumans." said the woman. "Uhh...No ma'am. We are just here for patrol." Brandon replied.
45Please respect copyright.PENANA3dMZI8M6mu
"Oh," said the woman, "Well I apologize for interrupting you two. Have a nice day!" Brandon and Aiden watched as the woman walked away. A few more minutes pass by. A person slowly peeks out of one of the houses.
45Please respect copyright.PENANAYmBYzjj9nN
"Why do I hafta go first?!" Annalise complained. "Reasons." That was a werewolf's simple answer. Annalise sighed deeply, and muttered a few words before walking outside.
45Please respect copyright.PENANAWayUIOH5Pf
Brandon and Aiden look at each other. "....Get out of the car," said Brandon. "What?!" said Aiden. "Listen, here's the plan, okay? I stay in the car, you go say hello to the extremely angry-looking teenager over there. And if all goes south, I'll be here to help you make a quick getaway." Brandon explained. "That teenager looks like she could be the Hulk's child..." said Aiden.
45Please respect copyright.PENANAuVfReKxr6D
"Oh, stop your complainin', and get yo ass out there." said Brandon. Aiden huffed. "Whatever. But if I get injured I'm sueing you." Aiden opened the door, slowly getting out. Other 'nonhumans' seemed to be peeking out of their houses. "Uh...hi?" Aiden said sheepishly.
45Please respect copyright.PENANAFpq7um8ZdJ
The teenager nodded a greeting towards him. Aiden took a deep breath. "I...don't... I'm not going to hurt anyone..." "Someone will." said the teenager. "Who?" Aiden asked.
45Please respect copyright.PENANALfo0gugZin
The teenager was silent for a moment before she finally said "You should go." "Listen kiddo, I-I..I'm on patrol duty okay? And unfortunately I don't get to choose where."
45Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2HyQ1eme1
"Well you should ask your deputy to send you somewhere else before someone gets killed."
45Please respect copyright.PENANAbWZLdjlxk2
"I'm just a rookie. He will NOT listen to me even if I had found the GREATEST evidence they could use for--."
45Please respect copyright.PENANAmPP8uT1aac
"EXCUSES! EXCUSES!"

Everyone in the neighborhood goes back into hiding as a man opens his door. The man looks around. "What are you doin here?" He asks Aiden with a slight growl to his voice. "I was just...well...supposed to be on patrol, but my partner and I saw everyone hide and he sent me out there to figure out why." Aiden explained. The man smiles and chuckles. "Ah. Yes. Now you see, they have a bad history with humans down here. You see, those humans, they come down here and try to kill em'."
45Please respect copyright.PENANAAtSJXSbZVD
The man walked down and stood in front of Aiden. Aiden's eyes glowed a golden yellow. "You blend in well with them humans. Its no wonder they ain't tried to kill you yet," said the man, "but I'm curious, of all the things you could become, why a police officer?" "Well, I don't know how to fly for one. And was hoping that by becoming a cop I could find my daughter." Aiden explained. "Oh dear. Well I certainly do hope that you find your little girl." said the man sympathetically.
45Please respect copyright.PENANAtzvxfGFwju
"I'm trying my best," said Aiden. "I'm sure you are," said the man.

The day went by. By the time it was night, the two officers had left. But everyone remained hidden inside, except for Luna, Jessie, Annalise, Alice and Penelope. They had to leave their shelter and go back home.

The girls stood in a line beside each other. Tsunami and Nova couldn't stay still for one minute. "Tonight you will be taking something from the Kraang," said the master. Frost looked at Nova speaking a few silent words to her. Nova gave a single nod.
