Now here's a big change for me...going from Final Fantasy...to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?! Yeesh...what is this world coming to...? Ha, well anyway I've been getting new inspiration after new inspiration lately, so before ya know it, I'm gonna be trying to update ten fan fictions all at once...that'll be fun. --sigh-- Lets see, how many fan fictions am I writing that I haven't posted on here...there's my FFX fan fic...my Star Ocean 3 fan fic...my pokemon fan fic...yea, you heard me right...pokemon... My gosh, I need to get a life! There's also my Rocket Power fan fic (Hey, it was a good show damn it!), and my Naruto fan fic. All of which are not posted on here...Damn, if I posted every single one of my fan fictions, I think I would commit suicide from the pressures of updating...in fact, I'm amazed I haven't yet --sweat drop--

Anyway, this story is suppose to take place after the 2007 movie (not that it really matters) and it revolves mostly around...well, actually it doesn't revolve around anyone really...there's more than one couple in it and pretty much all of the main characters play a part in it, plus my four OCs.

Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters (yadda yadda yadda) other than my four original characters whose names I can't say yet cuz that would take the fun out of the story, so don't even ask! And if you feel like suing me over crap like that, then you're a lowlife jerk that just cares about money and doesn't give a rat's ass about the well-being of those around him...I pity you for being so shallow...have fun in hell, loser!

Chapter One
Kidnapped

Detroit, Michigan
March 23, 2007

The alarms blared loudly, lights flashing red all through the halls of the science research center smack-dab in the middle of downtown Detroit.

"Where are they!" voices yelled out to each other. "I can't find anything either!" other voices answered the distressed calls.

A slash of a blade, the sound of a gag...then the lights came back on...

The guards gasps at the sight of all their blood covered comrades, most of which were dead, scattered throughout the hallways. "Did anybody even see who attacked us?" One man asked, solemnly gazing at the corpses.

"No..." another answered. "Whoever they were, they must have been well trained...they moved like ninja..."

"Attention everyone!" a voice came over the loud speaker. "It brings me great sorrow to tell you...that one of our prized specimen has gone missing...Aphrodite..."

--meanwhile on a ship crossing Lake Erie--

"Ugh, shut the damn thing up already!" shouted one of the ship's crew members as he worked on some maintenance. A little red fox caged in the corner of the storage room thrashed about her cage, yipping and growling and throwing herself against the cage walls in a futile attempt to break free.

"Well, what'dya want us to do about it?" another called back.

"Yeah," the second guard, a short, stout man added. "We was told to keep guard over the thing. We're not gonna lose a limb in the process."

"Why?" the maintenance man taunted. "Don't tell me you're scared of a cute, little fox."

"I sure as hell am scared of the little beast!" the first guard hastily replied. "If you're so brave, then you shut it up yourself."

"Yeah..." a feminine voice said from within the cage. The men all turned to look at the fox who had now transformed into a fox/human hybrid. Her body was that of a highly attractive woman, but she had the ears and tail of a red fox. "Just try and shut me up..."

"Damn..." said the pudgy second guard. "She's hot. You think the boss would mind if we uh...played around with her a bit?"

"Only one way to find out," the first guard replied.

The maintenance man just glared at the two men. "Well, you two sure got brave all of a sudden..."

"Well, look at her," the taller, more muscular guard answered. "She's just a woman, what can she do to us?" He unlocked the door to the cage.

The moment the cage door slid open, the man made a slight gasping sound...then his head tumbled off his shoulders, rolled onto the floor, and his body fell beside it.

The other two men gaped in awe as the stunningly beautiful woman in the cage revealed an elaborate iron fan.

The woman smirked at the remaining two men. "He asked," she said blatantly. The men just stared at her. The guard had only fear in his eyes while the maintenance man had a blank expression. "I'm not gonna kill you, okay," the blonde haired woman said. With that, she folded her fan back up and placed it in the sleeve of her blush pink kimono. She then laid back against the back of her prison and closed her eyes to relax while the cage door remained wide open.

The blonde woman had lost track of time before the ship finally arrived to wherever it was headed. A few men came down from the top deck to carry out their cargo, but of course, they halted once they saw the decapitated body and the open cage.

"Wh-what happened?" one of the men stuttered.

"He tried to rape me," the woman answered as she got up from her spot in the cage and began to walk past the new men. "I suggest you don't do the same thing..."

"Wh...where do you think you're going...?" the man asked her, glancing back and forth between her and the body.

"Well, I assume you came down to get me, right?" she asked, looking back at him with a look of what almost seemed like seduction. "I just figured I'd help myself. I'm curious to know where I am after all."

Once on the top deck of the ships, the woman found the ship was docked at a large harbor. People were scattered about the ship doing numerous tasks to prepare for their departure on land.

"Where are we?" she asked as the other men below, including the remaining guard and the maintenance man, followed her up the steps.

"Tonawanda," one of the new men answered.

"Who's Wanda?" she asked.

"No no," the man laughed. "Tonawanda...it's a city. We're in New York."

The woman paused for a moment. "New York! Why would you bring me to New York!"

Several more hours passed as the kidnappers made their way down Interstate 90 going east. They had shoved the young woman in the back of an RV, placing hand cuffs on her ankles and wrists. And now they knew of the iron fans she had hidden in her kimono, they took those away from her as well. She watched curiously as the men in the RV with her would walk into another room and come out in an all black outfit that covered part of their face. Who are these people? she silently asked herself.

--meanwhile, traveling north on Interstate 87--

"I GOT SUNSHIIIIIIINE, ON A CLOUDLY DAY!!!!"

"Mikey, would you shut the hell up already!"

"But...but this song's a classic..."

Raphael glared at his little brother. "...No, it's not...and either way, do you really have to sing to it?"

"Aw, come on, Raph. You know, you wanna join me." Mikey nudged his brother with his elbow. "I guess you'd say, what can make me feel this way?" He grabbed Raphael's shoulder and started swaying back and forth with him. "My girl, my girl, my girl. Talkin' 'bout my g-"

"Get off'a me!" Raphael yelled.

Leonardo sighed, shaking his head at his two younger brothers. "Don't make me turn this car around," he threatened. The antics were funny at first, but after hours of Mikey tormenting Raph in the back seat...well, lets just say it got old fast.

"That'd be kinda hard for you to do, seeing as you're not driving," Donatello joined in. "You made me drive, remember?"

"Yeah, well I would be driving if you guys hadn't wrecked my van," Mikey half joked.

"We're not the ones who wrecked it, stupid," Raphael pointed out. "April did."

Mikey ignored the comment. "Ooh, ooh, leave that song on!" Mikey yelled as he started to once again sing to the music. "Cuz every time we touch, I get this feeling. And every time we kiss, I swear I can fly!"

"First off, Leo," Raph started, "Please just turn the damn radio off! And secondly...Mikey shut up!" He smacked Mikey on the back of the head.

"Ugh..." Leonardo glanced over at Donatello. "Donnie, I don't know why Master Splinter had to send us all the way to Albany just to get him that special cheese he likes so much..."

"I'm sure he's trying to teach us some sort of lesson through it, Leo," Donnie pointed out. "If I had to guess," he looked back at Mikey and Raphael in the back seat killing each other, "I'd say the lesson is patience and tolerance..."

"Hear that, Raph," Leo said to Raphael. "Patience and Tolerance."

"Patience and tolerance my ass," Raph said back as he put Mikey in a headlock.

"Hey!" Donnie yelled. "Put your seatbelts back on! Do you want us to get pulled over?"

Master Splinter, Leo thought to himself, rubbing his head which was starting to pound from his brother's antics. Sometimes I think you're trying to punish me, forcing me to spend endless hours locked in a car with my brothers... He gave a loud sigh, placing his head back against the headrest.

--Albany, New York--

"They've finally arrived, Sir," a man in black said as he looked away from the camera monitor that guarded the front door of the office building in downtown Albany.

"Let them in," a man with a large scratch on his face said.

The blonde haired woman was lead into the building and into that very room. She still had the hand cuffs on her wrists, and two men held her arms just to be sure she wouldn't try anything.

"She managed to murder one of our men on the way here," the captain of the ship reported to the scar-faced man.

"One less man won't hurt us at all," the man coldly replied. He walked over to the woman and stared her straight in the eyes, startling her. "What is your name, sweetheart?"

"...who wants to know...?"

The scar-faced man stared her down with a look of fearlessness and curiosity. "My name is Oroku Saki..."

"Aphrodite..." she glared at the man with resentment. "Nice to make your acquaintance..."
