Excerpt we read: “Are we there yet?” Mikey asked, for the 43rd time. Leo, who was driving, gripped the steering wheel tighter, the muscles flexing in his forearms.
“Mikey, if we were there we wouldn’t still be driving, would we?” Leo said through gritted teeth. Mikey groaned and threw himself against the back of his chair, folding his arms across his chest impatiently. I grinned.
“Donnie,” I said, trying to get rid of what I knew would soon be a tense moment, “Tell me more about the farmhouse. None of you have been very specific and it’s driving me crazy!” Donnie jumped at the chance, eager to avoid all awkward situations, especially when all five of us were jammed into the same van. April and Splinter had insisted on driving on ahead to get the house ready for us.
“Well,” Donnie began, “It’s not a new house, but it works just fine. There’s the main house, then the courtyard, and in the back is the barn. After the barn is the forest that surrounds the place. The forest used to be well-kept by April’s family, but once they moved away the forest was allowed to grow naturally and became unkempt. It’s a little creepy at night, but we love to explore the nearer regions during the day.”
“Hey, guys. Guess what?” Leo called from the front. “We’re here.”
I unbuckled and scrambled over Raph to look out his window. The countryside flew past too quickly for a normal person to see clearly, but I caught every detail. Bare branches were covered in the first hints of what promised to be a very white winter. Frost was painted on each branch, their black fingers reaching up to tickle the bellies of low-flying clouds. We were on a dirt road that used to me well-used, but had been claimed by nature as time went on. The sky was overcast and heavy with clouds. It would storm later today. Despite this, a watery sunshine fought its way through the clouds and lit the earth beneath with a soft glow. The whole scene was beautiful.
“Can you PLEASE…get your wings…out of my face?!” Raph growled. I looked back at him and giggled at the sight of him trying to move my wings, which were indeed pressed up against his face. I smirked and fluffed out my feathers a bit so they tickled him. He gagged and shoved me away, spitting some black down-feathers out of his mouth.
“Eww! I didn’t know you shed. That’s disgusting!” Raph complained, still spitting out feathers. I blushed, not knowing how to react.
