Stolen Child

A/N: with a lot of debate I have decided to create a sequel to my story 'what was lost, now is found.' this takes place three years into the future. Please read and review no flames please, or I will send them to Shredder for lunch!

Summary: Bishop had spent three years looking for his 'experiment child' he had created. Now he has a lead as to where the missing boy is, now to just get past the adults in his life...


in the deserts of Nevada...

Bishop had been looking for three years now for the child that he had created out of experimentation, he combed every inch of New York City in search of the child that the turtles had taken from him. He looked high and low, but came up empty handed, he knew he should find the child but it seemed like it was not going to happen. He sat in his throne of a chair and studied the image of the child, he typed a few buttons on the control panel and the picture before him aged by three years. He knew he needed to strike soon before those turtles taught the boy jiujitsu, then the child would be more difficult to control...

in the sewers of New York...

Michelangelo woke up early and went to the kitchen, he saw his father sitting down to his morning tea "morning Sensei." "good morning my son, what have you got planned for today?" Mikey looked over at the calender "its Deangelo's Birthday, I figured I would make him a special breakfast. Can he join us for morning training?" since they got the child back Deangelo was always told to stay out of the dojo. Splinter thought for a moment "he is your son, my son, if you wish him to learn the art of ninja then that is up to you. I do not mind if he watches, you may go to the side lines with him and teach him some exorcizes if you wish. I still have your old training gear from when you were his age." in saying Splinter got up and went to the storage area of the lair. Looking around at all of the turtles old things made him smile, he found the old weights he had found back when the turtles first learned ninja. He also found the old mats and training gear, "do you need help with that?" turning around he saw his oldest son standing near him "i could use the help thank you."

Leonardo helped his father carry the gear to the dojo "so Mikey's going to start teaching Deangelo our ways?" "he has made it clear that this is what he wants to do." "that's good. I wonder what weapon will choose him?" "that is far down the road my son, for now he must learn the other aspects of our art." together they sat up an area safely away from where the four teenagers practice. Donnie and Raph both came in hearing the two talk about old days, Donnie spoke up "what are you two doing?" Leo looked up and told his brothers "Mikey's going to start Deangelo's training today." Raph and Donnie looked at each other "that's cool." is what Raph had to say about it, he personally didn't want his nephew to learn ninja but what choice did he have in the matter. Raph followed his younger brother to the kitchen where Michelangelo, Leonardo and Splinter were now sitting. Michelangelo stood up and said "well I better go wake Deangelo up, other wise he will be a grouch all day." Leo and Donnie gave each other knowing looks then looked over at Raph who looked at them and said "don't even say it!" Leo tried not to laugh and asked Splinter "is that why Raph is so grouchy all the time? He woke up to late in the mornings as a toddler?" Splinter chuckled and said "no my son, that doesn't effect how you act later in life." Raph rolled his eyes and got up "you guys are nuts!" as he walked out of the room he could hear his brothers laugh, "Laugh it up you two bone heads!" Raph went to Deangelo's room to see how his baby brother was fairing, he stood in the doorway at watched as Mikey tried to wake his son up.

Raph smiled seeing how hard Mikey was trying "well would ya look at this? Like father like son..." Mikey spun around and saw his older brother standing there, "what are you talking about Raph?" walking up beside his brother he said "you were a hard sleeper too when we were little, I remember dumping cold water on you once to wake you up." Mikey raised his brow and said "wonder how much trouble you got into?" "oh trust me you don't wanna know. Splinter was p- I mean ticked off, I got my butt whooped and had to run extra laps around the dojo." since Deangelo was brought home Raph had to learn to control his foul mouth, Deangelo repeated a certain F word one day that resulted in Raphael getting punished by not just his older brother and Splinter but a hardy lecture from his baby brother as well. He slips from time to time but catches him self before saying cuss words in front of the toddler. "so how did you wake me up after that?" Raph thought about his brother's question and then said "you don't wanna know, but it didn't get me punished again lets put it that way." Raph knelt down beside his nephew and shook him slightly "Hey D, its time to wake up, come on birthday boy! Rise and shine... OK fine then I will open your presents and eat your cake too." this got the little one's attention "no uncle Raphie!" Raph smiled and chuckled at him "do you honestly think I would do such a thing?" Mikey laughed knowing part of Raph's threat was true "yea... you would eat my cake!" rubbing his stomach he said "yea and I am feeling awful hungry..." the small boy's eyes grew wide "no! Daddy!" Mikey looked down at his son and brother and told them "Deangelo, your uncle wouldn't eat it cause for one I would kick his butt, and two he don't want me to lecture him again." Raph stood up and told him "yea, well lets just say your worse then Leo when it comes to lectures." with a sly smile he said "where do you think I learned it from?" looking back to his nephew "well kiddo lets get to breakfast." Deangelo jumped on his uncle's shell as the three went to the kitchen.

Splinter was working on breakfast while his son's went to wake his grandson up, he smiled when he saw them come in. "April brought down a special breakfast surprise for you Deangelo." the small child slid off of Raphael's shell and stood next to his grandfather "really? What did she bring me?" it was a rare treat for any of them, but on special occasions they would have pancakes, Splinter held the frying pan down so the boy could see but not get burned Deangelo's face lit up and he said "PANCAKES! Awesome!" every one laughed as Deangelo climbed up into his booster seat at the table as Splinter took the hot pancake and put it on a plate. After finishing the last of the batter he set out pancakes for the rest of his family, while they ate Splinter also made bacon and eggs as well.

Deangelo ate his breakfast in silence for a moment before asking his father "daddy, can we go to the surface today?" the four brother's looked at each other, they had been lucky for three years now that Bishop had not come looking for Deangelo. But that was because he never left the lair, Mikey looked Leo in the eyes before answering his son "probably not today kiddo, we will go one of these days, maybe when your older." "but why?" Splinter walked over to his grandson and said "Deangelo, I know you wish to go to the surface, but it can be dangerous to such a small child such as your self. Your father and uncles didn't go to the surface until they were 12 years old."

The small boy's eyes grew wide "12! that's a lot of years from now!" Donnie spoke up "its only 9 years away, it will be OK Deangelo, I know it will be hard but you can wait that long." Mikey spoke up next "besides what would you do up there?" "what do you guys do up there?" the four looked at each other before Leo said "well, we protect the city from bad guys, its not as exciting as it sounds. Its dangerous work, we get hurt sometimes doing so." trying to explain things to a three year old wasn't easy, Deangelo looked at his father "really dad?" "yea, it can get interesting." "have you ever been hurt?" they all looked at each other before he answered "a few times." "when was the last time?" Mikey and Raph looked at each other before he said "well, um... its been several years." Splinter spoke up "so, do any of you want any more to eat?" every one shook their heads and said no, Deangelo excused him self to go to the bathroom while he was gone the teenagers talked Mikey told them "i wish we could take him to the surface."

Leo gave him a stern look and said "we have talked about this Mike, he is too young, what if Bishop is still looking for him?" Mikey looked down and said "i know, I'm worried about that too..." Splinter placed a hand on Mikey's shoulder and said "my son I know it is hard to keep your little one from the outside world, you want him to be happy. But my son, I had the same problem with the four of you, you all wanted so badly to go to the surface. Even at the tender age of three you wanted to go up there, I discouraged it as you all are doing so now with Deangelo." the toddler in question came running back in and said happily "daddy? Can I open my pwesents now?"Mikey smiled at him and said "after the kitchen's cleaned up from breakfast OK. We have to train this morning so after that we will open your presents." Deangelo was going to argue until he saw the look on his father's face, "OK daddy." he went to his play room that was just off of Donatello's lab, before he got inside the room his father stopped him "hey, De, um I want you to come to the dojo with me." frowning he asked "why daddy? I not posed to go in there? Member?" chuckling Mikey said "oh I know, but all of us have a huge surprise for you." the young child followed his father to the dojo and saw child size mats, wooden weapons, and small weights. Deangelo ran over to the items and looked up at his family "is this for me?" Splinter walked over to him and said "your father and uncles were just your age when they began training in the art of jiujitsu, now it is your turn to begin training." looking up at his father he said "really dad?" Mikey smiled at him and said "yes, really, Master Splinter is going to help me train you as well as my brothers." Deangelo looked excited and said "what do I do first?" Splinter spoke to him first "the adult turtles will begin their training and I will work with you while they are busy." Deangelo waited patiently for his grandfather to return to him, Splinter first had him do some exorcizes to warm his muscles then began training him in the basics. Michelangelo watched with pride as his father taught his son the basics, Leo stepped up beside him and said softly "reminds me of when we were that age, he reminds me so much of how we all used to be." Mikey frowned and asked "do you think Bishop is looking for him?" Raph and Donnie came up on his other side and Donnie said "i don't see why he would but its possible."

At the old foot headquarters...

Agent Bishop paced around, he was growing tired of waiting, he told one of his men "we need to lure the turtles out of hiding, go tell the Foot Clan that we will team up with them for a price to find the missing child. If I can capture all the turtles I will but I want that child! Do what you have to." the men left and found Hun and told him what Bishop wanted, the alliance was made and a plan was coming together... Little did the turtles know what was in store for them in the very near future...
