Ok so I was so happy about getting three reviews the first day this story was posted, that I thought I'd give all you readers a short epiloue. Enjoy!
Adventures in Dog training
"Ok, Leo I built the protective suit, but I AM NOT wearing it, you gota find someone else for that."
"Thanks Don... hey Raph, will you help me train my dog?"
"Whatdaya need help with?"
" I want to teach her to attack on command, and make sure she'll stop on my command."
"No no no no, NO... You are not sicking your dog on me..." Leo rolled his eyes and glanced down at his dog, it had taken him months but he had taught her to come, sit, lay down, heel, stay and had also taught her to watch fights and the brothers train without attacking. Leo had even gotten her to attack the target dummy on command, but wanted to see how she did against a moving and fighting target. As well as make sure the dog would let go on his command. But neither Raph nor Don were cooperating. That's when Mikey entered the room to see why everyone was in the dojo except Master Splinter witch seamed odd to him.
"Hey, Mikey... Favorite brother of mine, you'll do your big bro a favor wont you?" Leo said wrapping a arm around Mikey pulling him further into the dojo.
"Um... Leo.. did you hit your head or something?
"Please? I'll go pick up, your favorite pizza if you'll do it for me" Leo spoke honestly... 'Mikey'll do anything if you feed him' Leo thought with a smirk.
"Oh... mmm... Pizza sounds so good right now dude, I'm starving! Ok, what do you want me to do!"
"Alright, now all you have to do is put on this nice protective suit,"
"... ... Um... ok" Mikey put on the suit... looking like a turtle wrapped in pillows witch wasn't far from the truth.
"Keiko, Attack" Leo said followed by a quick hand motion once Mikey was fully suited.
"Wait Wait... I didn't agree to this" Mikey said running away from the dog but quite hindered by the suit. Raph and Don laughed at him, as Keiko grabed onto his leg and pulled Mikey to the ground, "AHHH .. Someone get this dog off me!"
"Keiko, Heel" Leo commanded and she released Mikey's leg and ran to Leo's side. Leo fed her a treat. "Yes you are a good girl... See guys not a big deal,"
"Dude.. Not a big deal? That was so uncool... You better get me two pizzas for that."
"I'll buy you Three if you do it once more."
"Three!... uhhhh... ermmm... Ok... but you better not get the toppings wrong!" Mikey spoke, Leo then repeated sending Keiko to attack, letting her attack for slightly longer this time and recalling her back to his heel. "Ok, so I held up on my part of the bargain, I want a Hawaiian, Supreme, and Peperoni! And hurry up I'm starvin!"
"Come on Keiko were going to go pick up Mikey's Pizza." Leo told the Dog next to him, as he hung up the phone, having quickly and quietly sent in a order for six pizzas so that they would be ready when he got there (three for Mikey and three for the rest of them). Leo was glad it was raining ever so slightly he wouldn't look odd in a trench coat. It was late anyway, 8pm, unalikely many others would be out getting dinner.
Keiko and Leo walked though the alleyways headed to their favorite pizza parlor. "Stay" Leo told Keiko as they reached the Pizza Parlor, Keiko obendiently sat down outside the door while Leo fetched the pizza's from inside. "come" Leo told Keiko over 6 boxes in his hands, Keiko instantly followed Leo again. They quickly returned home.
Leo set the pizza's down on the table... "Mikey, Why are you still in that suit?" Leo asked raising a eyebrow at his oddly dressed and running younger brother.
"Hey its safer in here than out there." Raph pushed him, Mikey stumbled and fell... Raph kicked him and Mikey... laughed. "Nah nah nah you can't hurt me." Leo stared after them as Mikey taunted a Raph who was happily using Mikey as a punching bag, Leo shrugged. Then separated out the Pizzas, setting three aside and opening up the other three. A supreme for Don, meat-lovers for Raph and vegetarian for him.
"I think I created a new punching bag for Raph." Don told Leo as he sat at the table.
"You really out did yourself this time Don" Raph compliments, as he chases Mikey.
"I thought you were getting ME pizza not everyone" Mikey complained, Having noticed again how hungry he was, and hobbling over to the pizzas.
"These three are to keep Don and Raph from trying to get into your Pizzas" Leo made a excuse. "I didn't figure you wanted to share your Pizzas with them, those three over there are yours" Mikey attempted to open and eat the pizzas while wearing the suit but ultimately chose to take off the suit in order to eat the pizzas at top speed.
They all ate happily, Leo sharing his with Master Splinter. Mikey and Raph then took over the TV playing some sort of Mortal Combat on their gaming system, Don left for the lab. Master Splitter went back to his room to avoid the noise Mikey and Raph were making.
"Looks like its just you and me as usual, Keiko" Leo said looking down at the dog, then getting a treat up for her, he threw it gently at her. The dog watched the treat fly, it hit her on the nose, landed on the floor and then she opened her mouth to catch it. Leo laughed as she searched for the treat on the ground. "don't worry Keiko someday you'll get that trick." Leo told her, as he grabbed the a tennis ball from his room, and began to play her favorite game, fetch.
Leo had gotten quite creative with throwing the ball, finding it bounced very well, he threw it against the wall in the hall way, makeing it bounce though the door into the dojo, Keiko happily chased after it skiritng the corner quickly, and running into the obsured room. There was a loud crash, Leo chased after her into the room.
"Keiko, what did I tell you about watching where you run..." Leo lectured her about running into the weights and knocking them over, while he picked them up. Leo's brothers watched from the doorway having come to investigate the crash as well. Keiko just sat and watched Leo in perfect attendence, at least for the most part. Leo's brothers couldn't help but laugh when the dog yawned in boredom halfway though Leo's lecture.
"That's just not right, your suppose to be on my side!" Leo chided Keiko. His brothers laughed harder. Leo could barely contain his grin.
"Dudes, I knew Leo getting a pet was a good idea." Mikey said as he Don and Raph went back into the living room.
"I'd have to agree, Mikey, he hasn't seamed so happy in years" Don spoke, the puppy had seamed to help Leo relax, and that made him seam more of a brother to them. The fact that he was found joking with them, and you could even convince him to play a video game or two now was proof enough of that.
"And now were not the target of most of Leo's lecutres!" Raph appluaded. Don just smiled heading back to the lab. Raph and Mikey unpaused their game.
Leo shook his head at the three, as he listened to them from the dojo doorway, but he couldn't argue with them. Heck, He didn't even go anywhere without her, she even came on patrols with them. He took Keiko out for one last run of the day, before heading to bed. Keiko jumping in next to him under the covers once Leo was situated, the makeshift dog bed in the corner having never been used.
Please Tell me what you think, and how I can improve my writing.
