Prologue
The beginning—Two Leonardo's: (young terrapin tot—Leonardo, 5/adult Leonardo, 23)
The day has began, like any other day—but for the young Hamato family. Living in the sewers since have mutated from the mutagen of a broken canasta only a short time before. The newly profound, foster father knew that the surface world would never understand of their appearances. Let alone, mayn't understand how they came to be.
Fearing of what would or could happen if discovered—wanting to keep his newly adopted terrapin sons to be and remained safe, unless the world will learn to co-exist with mutant citizens but until then. Living and remained in the shadows of the sewers is the only life that they will have and know unless the world changes.
Playing outside the lair, chasing after one another—giggling and laughing out loud, enjoying their tag game when they were softly requested to return inside by a familiar fatherly voice. "My sons, come—time for your training."
Without reply, all but Leonardo followed as he caught a glimpse of unknown shadowy figure standing close by, around the corner near the lair. Uncertainly glanced the shadowy figure, walking slowly towards the hidden stand by watcher then suddenly remembered to never speak to anyone that is not familiar.
About to return back to the lair when the visitor pleaded for halt. "Wait." The reassuring voice called. "I shouldn't be talking to strangers." Young Leo answered, abruptly and uncertain.
Stepping out of the shadows, revealing himself and softly reassured his younger self. "I am no stranger young ninja."
"Who are you?" Young Leo asked, confused. The older Leo softly, reassuringly smiled and knelt down—reassuringly grasped his tiny shoulder. "I am you—I know you are afraid and don't understand what I am saying but one day, you will but until then—always know that you are not alone. Go on, better get back."
Young Leo nodded, turned around and ran fast as he could to the lair's entrance then turned back—saw nothing standing or hiding in the shadows.
"Leonardo—my son, who're you talking to?" Splinter warily wondered. "Talking to my friend, sensei." Young Leo replied, walking inside.
The old rat watched his son walked inside the lair, looked out and sniffed for any unwanted guests but then realised—his son may be just going through the stage of having imaginary friends. Softly, warmly smiled—closed his eyes and turned around then joined his sons, beginning their training.

..To be continued in chapter one...
Wow! What a prologue! Not a easy to begin as this will be one hell of pain in the ass to create. As if you hadn't noticed, this is an inspirational fiction of the movie—Rachel McAdams & Eric Bana,'The time traveller's wife' after watching the movie, gave me a idea of writing another ficcy. Which was originally meant to be about Donatello and April then I immediately realised that there are too many fictions of that pairing and also knew that where would I begin so, I decided to choose another pairing—for instance, Leonardo and Karai.
This is my second pairing fiction and I do sincerely hope this will make you wanna to know what happens in the next chapter as I, the author—Do not know what will happen in the next chapter. Love or hate me but not my fiction as I will try my best to please and hope for reviews as some of other fictions are not exactly going very well which they will be on hiatus.
Also, I apologise for the immediate inconvenience to those may or are interested after the first chapter but I will only update and continue this fiction, if I have 5—6 or possibly maybe, which maybe a long stretch and wishful thinking; 10 positive reviews for each chapter from now, if not. It will be discontinued unless on request!
Reviews are greatly appreciated, feed the desperate hungry author. Until next time—stay tuned, read and review. Tootles. Enjoy everyone.
