When I'm Not Working...
If I were to be in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: Radical Rescue with my best friends Yoshi and Luma, I would probably take on the role of a Fantastic guide. I would help Yoshi navigate through the challenging platform sections with his jumping ability, and Luma would assist us with his magical powers to find secret passages. Together, we would help the Turtles defeat Shredder and save the day! And after a long day of adventure, we would all enjoy a delicious pizza. Haha! Now that would truly be Fantastic!
