Hey guys long time no see! So I know I haven't posted in a couple weeks and I knew I shouldn't have started something else but I had this wonderful idea and I couldn't resist! Oh and in case you get confused this takes place in a alternate universe so it won't be completely canon. If you have any other questions about it you can pm me in private.

Now on with the story!

I make my way over to Murakami's noodle shop with a huge grin on my face and a bit of a bounce in my step.

"The guys will love this!" I say to myself.

Father or "Master Splinter" as my adopted brothers affectionately have dubbed him ever since they first learned to talk, agreed that I could pick up a special treat for them today.

Pizza Gyoza.

Mmm... Just that one word makes my mouth water for it.

And the reason for the delicious treat tonight?

Raph, Donnie, and Mikey had all been working very hard on their katas all week. This morning during training when Father had each of them demonstrate their katas for him, they totally nailed it!

Father knew how much they liked Pizza Gyoza so he had me pick it up this afternoon. "But please," he begged me before I left this morning, "keep it a surprise for your brothers." I had chuckled and promised that I wouldn't say a word.

I open the door to Murikami's and the little bell rings. "Miwa chan!" Murakami exclaims as I walk in, "How very nice of you to come by? For what do I have the honor of having you here?"

"It's for my brothers," I reply, "Do you happen to have some Pizza Gyoza ready?"

"As a matter of fact I do." he answers and brings out a big cardboard box. Inside were 26 small pizza gyoza ready and piping hot from the oven.

"Thanks Murakami!" I say and hand him the money.

"Any time." he replies with a warm and friendly smile.

I walk out the door and make my way past Murakami's and into the New York sunlight. I walk for about 2 blocks making sure no one is following me. At Tennison Square I make a right into a deserted alley and make my way to a man hole cover. Making sure no one is around I quickly take off the cover, take my groceries and slip the cover over my head.

Though I have lived in the sewers for most of my life, the sound of small rodents still worries me.

"You think you wouldn't though considering your father is a rat." I think to myself as I walk through the sewers.

The trip in the sewers isn't too terribly long and I soon jump over the turnstiles with ease. I look to my left and then my right making sure my brothers aren't around. I make it all the way to the kitchen without being seen.

"Hey Miwa, where have you been?"

I turn and gasp to see my baby brother Mikey standing right behind me.

"Hey Mikey," I say while trying to subtly hide in front in of the box of pizza gyoza. "Umm how long have you been standing there?"

"I just got here to get a can of soda, what are you hiding behind your back?"

"Hey uh I think I hear Donnie calling you right now, I think he needs your help with a experiment or something?"

"I'm on it!" he yells and vanishes with a purple smoke bomb.

I feel the warm hand of my father resting on my shoulder. "Thank you Miwa for doing this for your brothers."

"It was nothing Father. Though Mikey almost blew my cover."

"You did well to distract him though."

"Hai Sensei." I answer.

The moment is quickly interrupted with the sound of Donnie yelling at Mikey.

"MIKEY! UGH DONT TOUCH THAT- DID YOU SERIOUSLY NOT HEAR WHAT I SAID! STAY OUT OF MY LAB YOU STUPID-"

"Should I bring them all here?"

"I think that would be wise." Father answers.

15 minutes later I somehow managed to bring them all around the kitchen table. "I still don't know what is so important that I can't finish feeding Spike." my hot headed brother Raph retorts.

"Oh cheer up for once Raph your always alone with Spike."

Raph was about to blow his top off at me, but one look from Father and he is quiet. "My sons, you have improved vastly in your training, so I have decided to reward you all."

I flip open the box with a grin to reveal the steaming pizza gyoza.

"Aww thanks Sensei you shouldn't have." answers Donnie.

"Ya thanks Sensei you da the best!" Mikey quips.

I turn and give a small glare at Raphael.

"Um ya thanks Sensei." he quickly answers a tad with his eyes downcast.

The boys soon quickly dig in and enjoy the food. I only take one or two and put in on my plate. Too be honest I'm not that hungry right now and there was a grand lunch special at my high school today. I end up pushing my food around on my plate.

"Sensei?" Mikey asks with his mouth full of gyoza to mine and my brothers disgust. However Father doesn't seem to notice or care and instead answers his youngest child's question.

"Yes my son."

"Can you tell us the story of how we became to be and about us having Miwa as a sister?"

"Michelangelo I have already told you the story many times I-" Father turns to see all three turtles giving him the puppy eyes.

"Very well. When I was a young man I was in love with a woman. Her name was Tang Shen. But there was another man who loved her as well."

"It was Oroku Saki,the Shredder. He and I had a long and bitter feud over her but in the aftermath Tang Shen had chosen me."

We later had our first born child, a beautiful baby girl and we decided to name her Miwa."

At this Father looks at me with a warm and genuine smile. I look down and blush.

"But Shredder felt he could not go without giving one last blow. He struck in the middle of the night and burned down our house."

"I lost my beloved Tang Shen..."

"Thankfully I had hidden you Miwa outside in a special hiding place where I knew Shredder could not find you. I knew I had to leave or Saki would never stop trying to find you and me."

"I took you to New York and for your first birthday Miwa I got you three baby turtles. Alas it was just the beginning for us."

"As we were walking back to our small apartment I bumped into a strange man on the street. Something felt off about him so I decided to investigate. They were holding a strange glowing ooze and talking about it. Unfortunately I accidentally stepped on a rat which gave away my presence. They attacked and the ooze splattered on me and the three baby turtles."

"I had hidden you Miwa behind a trashcan so you were safe and unharmed. The ooze transformed me into a rat and the turtles into humanoid turtle children. I knew I could not leave them there alone with no one to care for them so I took them and you Miwa in the sewers to live. From there I taught you all ninjutsu and trained you so when you were ready to face the world you would be ready."

Everyone is silent after Sensai finishes and I ask Father if I could be excused. He nods and I quickly bolt to my room trying to block out any tears. I shut the door and flop down on my bed with a sigh.

Even though I had heard the story a million times each time it hurt more and more. I had never even gotten to know my own mother. You would think even it would be easier to forget, but it never was. But as Father would say, "Life must go on." and for the most part it did.

Master Splinter did train me and my turtle brothers in the art of ninjutsu from an early age and gave each of us the weapon which fit us best. For my brother Raph the sai, for Donnie it was the bo staff, for Mikey it was the nunchuck.

Father had designated two special gifts for me. The tessen and the tanto. He told me they were my mothers and that she would be proud to know her daughter was using them.

I smile fondly to myself as I remember those words. Right now though it sure would be nice to take my mind off these memories and go out for a patrol right now. My dream is quickly answered as I hear a knock on my door. I open it to find an excited and flustered Raphael.

"Miwa, come quick to Donnie's lab, something crazy is going on!"

"Alright I'll be right out!"

I grab my ninja gear and soon make my way to my dorky brothers lab. As I run to the familiar location I can't help but think, "When did my life start getting so complicated?"

So ya that's the first chapter! I hope you enjoyed it! Please review and tell me what you think! It motivates me to write more. I will see you all soon!
