After a bit of packing the group was ready to go. They all started to make their way to the surface where they were greeted by a large, stout, muscular man. Casey Jones grinned at Raph as the turtle greeted his friend “Heya Casey, what’s shaking?” Raphael said with a matching grin on his face. “Not much man, what’s going on, what’s this I hear about going to Tibet, don’t ya think it’s a little too cold a spot to pick a vacation?” Raph grinned again and said “nope, perfect weather to chill out in.” “You got that right.” Casey said. “Hey…who are your friends?” Oyuki stepped forward. “Hi, I’m Oyuki Mamisha, and this is Ninjara.” Shaking her hand Casey said “Well hello, Oyuki and Ninjara, it’s nice to meet you both.” “Likewise.” Ninjara said. “So this is the guy you keep saying is your best bud, I suppose you two spend every Sunday guzzling down beer and watching football eh?” Casey laughed as he said “Something like that. So this is the girl you were telling me about eh? You’re right, she is a feisty one, man. Got to watch it around her” Ninjara stuck her tongue out at him playfully as she helped Mike and Oyuki load the rest of the bags in the truck. “Yeah I got a friend in the Private Plane business that will fly us to a small town near where you’re talking about going, from there we can just hoof it.” Said Casey “Sounds like a plan to me man.” Raph replied.

“So” Casey said “You want to tell me what’s going on and why we are flying to Tibet?” “We’ll explain on the way dude, no big we got lots of time on the flight” Mike replied. “Sounds good to me, unless I fall asleep first from your long overdrawn stories” Mike shot Casey a glare as Oyuki giggled. “Well I guess we don’t need sleeping pills now that we got Mike with us.” Mike stuck his tongue out playfully as Ninjara and Leo loaded the last of the bags into the vehicle. “Well that’s it guys. Who’s riding with Casey and who’s riding with April?” After a little bit of arguing and a little scuffle between Mike and Raph on who rides Shotgun with Casey the group embarked on their journey to Tibet.

After an hour drive to Casey’s friend’s plane runway, the group loaded up and took off, headed toward the mountains of Tibet. “”Ya know” Casey said “This might be one of our Older Enemies traps, say Shredder’s or hell I wouldn’t even put it past Krang to pull a stunt like this.” “No” Oyuki said “It’s too….real to be any type of trap from anyone of our old baddies.” “When it spoke to me, I knew that it wasn’t some warped reality or some illusion of magic or anything like that. I just…knew it was true.” Casey looked at her questioningly. “How did you know?” Oyuki looked at him, smiled slightly and said “I felt it in my heart………..

Four Hours later the gang was still on their way, almost everyone had fallen asleep by now save for Casey and Raph, who were playing poker and were too occupied with claiming their opponent was cheating to sleep at all. Ninjara, Splinter, April, Mike and Don were curled up in separate cots fast asleep. Leo was sitting trying to meditate. Oyuki sat there and watched everyone for a little while until her eyes began to get heavy. She found an empty cot and curled up under the blanket and fell quickly asleep.
