TMNT 2012 - Run of the Nightwatcher (Decided to redo this since it had a lot of things wrong with it.)
(Note: The Nightwatcher is NOT an idea of mine. It is the persona Raph took up in the 2007 Ninja Turtles movie. But this is my idea of what would happen in the 2012 cartoon series on Nick, if the Nightwatcher was a whole other chatacter.
This would also be the debut of my gender bender counterpart, Cindy Bennett. I'm gonna use her for a lot of other stuff besides Ninja Turtles, like Skyrim, DBZ, Mass Effect, etc. So expect some more stories from me that go with those titles too. And with each one, Cindy's named differently for to better fit in that story. In TMNT stories, she is named Angie Marie. In DBZ stories, She's a Saiyan named Elery. Skyrim stories, she's named Fira. And finally with Mass Effect stories, she's known as Melissa Shepard.
Hope yall enjoy. :D)
~Nightwatcher's POV~
I smashed another Purple Dragon thug in the jaw with a punch, and he flew backward into a wall. Near where he landed, two more of them were laying beaten and scared. I cracked my knuckles as I made my way toward them slowly. I then spoke from under the mask I wore. "I thought I told you boys to lay off the crimes, or else you'll get some major beatdowns from me. Hehe, no matter though." I said cooly as I grabed one by his shirt and lifted him up as I raised a fist to punch him.
"Today's punishment will be worse then last time. In fact, Let's make it 10 times as worse then last time." I said, as I then punched the thug in the nose. Then again... and again... and again.
Nothing beats a good old fasioned beatdown...
Oh, hello. My name is Angie Marie. But you can also call me...
The Nightwatcher.
I was raised by a good man and master, my sensei. But then he was taken from me. Those Purple Dragon thugs had burned down the dojo where Sensei had trained me ever since I was a little girl. And with that, my life was changed... forever.
I swore to Sensei that I would get my revenge. No one would stand in my way for getting vengeance over the loss of my master, Hamato Yoshi.
I spent the last few years training and homing my skills, keeping my master's spirit alive. In time, I was able to make this full outfit: A bodysuit with a special mask that goes over my face. I made it out of metals and leathers I managed to find among junk and scraps over at the junkyard. It took time, but I finally build the perfect outfit for my new persona. Then, I give myself a fitting name... The Nightwatcher.
"Wherever there's prey, running around though the night... I'm always there, watching and hunting..." This became my calling card.
And so I began my hunt for the Purple Dragon... And ever since, I've been tracking them down. And I will hunt down every last one of them, till they are wiped out from this city and this world.
And no one... NO ONE... will stop me in my quest for vengeance...
~The Lair - Normal POV~
Master Splinter was watching the news on TV: The top story that was being broadcasted troubled him...
"In today's top story, it would seem that the "Nightwatcher" strikes again. A trio of Purple Dragon were found today in a allyway, terribly beaten with one having sustained a broken nose. Police are on the lookout for this new and up-rising crime-fighter, in a attempt to bring him out into the public and find out who he really is. If anyone has any infomaton about this man, please contact-" The newsman was cut off there as Splilter turned off the TV.
"My sons, come in here." Splinter said, as four walking-upright turtles came over to him and kneeled down. The master ninja stood up, grabing his cane and turning to one of them. It was Raphael, clad in a red mask and looking up at Splinter with sharp green eyes.
Raphael quickly spoke up. "Before you say anything Sensei... No, I have nothing to do with this I swear to you." He said, holding his hands up. Splinter noded his head. "I am aware, Raphael. However, I am also aware that we need to find out who this Nightwatcher really is, and why he is attacking the Purple Dragon. Leonardo, I want you and your brothers to go out tonight. See if you can track this Nightwatcher down. Find out about him in anyway you can." Splinter said, his eyes looking down at the blue-masked turtle. "Ha, Sensei." Leonardo said, bowing his head. Raph did the same, along with the other two turtles; Michaelangelo, the one in orange, and Donatello, the one in purple. All four turtles then rose and turned to head up to the surface (As they all live down in the sewers).
Splinter watched as he sons left. He himself was a human-like animal, A giant clothed rat. To anyone, it wouldn't make sence for a human-like rat to have four human-like turtles as his sons. But he raised Leonardo and his brothers ever since the incident with the mutagen, the same stuff that changed him from who he once was; Hamato Yoshi. And the turtles were simply pets before the mutagen changed them, as well. But ever since then, He and the four turtles have become known as the defenders of New York, even having human friends as allies: April O'neil and her father Kirby O'neil, and Casey Jones as well.
As his sons left, Splinter spoke in a hushed state...
"Good luck my sons... And be careful..."
~8:45 pm the next night - Nightwatcher's POV~
I had cornered an entire group of Purple Dragon tonight, this group having at least 5 or 6 members. It seemed like an unfair amount of numbers for me to handle. But I was trained for this moment. I paced myself for this. And nothing was gonna stop me now...
"So you're that Nightwatcher we've been hearing so much about. Well, we got news for ya, pal. We ain't afraid of ya, and after what you're done to one of our brothers by breaking his nose, we ain't gonna play so nice. We're gonna have to break something of yours." The leader of the group said, as he whiped out a baseball bat. His crew all then hustled close, ready to gang up on me.
"Let's take him out by breaking his legs. That should make him squeal in pain." One of the thugs said. "Well, let's not stop there. Let's break both of his arms after that." Another said. "Hmm, sounds good boys. Then I'll get the pleasure of smashing that tiny little skull of his into the ground, cracking it wide open." The leader said, getting hoops and hollers from the others.
I just stood there in front of them with my arms crossed over my chest. "Are you quite done, boys? Because it's time to punish you now." I said, my mask not covering my mouth up fully. My voice no doubt must have stunned the thugs, for they looked at me with puzzled looks as I cracked my knuckles.
"Hold it... You're a-" The leader said, but he never got the chance to finish. For I nailed him right in the jaw, and then kicked him right in the gut. I then grabed his arm and threw him away, smashing him into the wall. His buddies were shocked.
"Whoa. You ok Boss?" One said as they all hustled to help their leader up. "What do you think? The leader growled as he shook off his crew. "A girl, ehh? I never would have believed it until you spoke up like that. This day just keeps getting better. Heh, You got lucky there girl. But you won't be so lucky next time." He sneered, as his crew drew out baseball bats and knifes. Slowly, they circled around me. I just grinned underneath my mask.
"Two can play at that game." I said coyly. Then without a warning to them, I pulled out my secret weapons: Long chains that were about a foot long each and had heavy iron balls on the ends of them. I sweeped them low to the ground, catching ever single one of by surprise. I caught them all and tripped up the others and slammed the leader up against a wall. With the leader stunned, I swung one chained iron ball over my head. "Time to pay." I said softly, unaware of the leader's crew sneaking up from behind. But then, they were suddenly attacked themselves. Looking over my shoulder, I thought I saw human-like creatures attacking the thugs. They all were like ninjas or something: One had twin katanas, another had twin sais. I saw two more, one fighting using a pair of nunchucks, and the last one using a bo staff.
When they were finished knocking out the 4 thugs, they came out from the shadows. "Great... It's them Ninja Turtles." The leader in front of me groaned as the one with the katanas made his way toward me, his weapons drawn on me. From underneath my mask, my green eyes watched him as I took a defensive posture. "Hey, what are you lot doing here? This has nothing to do with you. This is between me and The Purple Dragon." I said sharply. But the turtle-like creature didn't stop. He came a few inches closer then stopped. Then to my surprise he started talking...
"Now, now Mr. Nightwatcher... We're not here to harm you. We're here to ask you some questions. Ether tell us why you're going after the Purple Dragon, or we leave no choice but to force it out of you." He said with a cool, collected voice. He must be the leader of the group.
The Purple Dragon leader then spoke up. "Hey, reality check Turtles! That there's a girl!" He said to them, and I then turned to face him and a grined. "Oh, really now? You're quick to catch on boy!" I said, yelling as I charged toward him and kneed him hard in the head. He was knocked out cold from this, and I was satisfied with that. But then, the turtle with the sais rushed in and tackled me to the ground. He was strong, as it actually hurt the way he slamed me to the ground. He no doubt was the strongest of them... turtles.
"Hey, Lady! Dude! Whatever, that's doesn't matter right now! What's your problem with them Purple Dragons?" He said in a rough, manly sounding voice. I pushed him off and stood up as I took off my mask. My long brown hair, which was tied in a ponytail, coiled down from where it was rolled up nice and snug underneath my mask. I looked to all four of the turtles with sharp emerald green eyes. "I ain't resting till I get my revenge on them. They'll pay dearly for taking Sensei away from me." I said coldly. "And ain't no one's gonna stop me." I added.
As soon as I said "Sensei," The four turtles looked to me with puzzled faces. "Who... you had a Sensei? Who was it?" The one with the katanas said softly. He must have thought I was talking about a ghost, as if he had seened my sensei before. It was odd, but I decided to tell them. "His name is... Hamato Yoshi." I said, pausing just for a second. I then stood back, waiting to see their reaction.
All four of them looked like their mouths were gonna drop or something. I raised an eyebrow at them, not sure what to think about it. Then the one with the nunchucks spoke up. From the sound of his voice, he no doubt was the youngest of them. "Dudes... she had no idea..." He said, pressing his hands to his cheeks. I then looked at them like they were crazy. "What are you talking about?" I asked them.
"Come with us. We... we know who you're talking about. And... He's alive. And he's our sensei too." The one with the bo staff said. It must have been because of the fact he seemed like the smartest of the four of them, but I believed him. I doubt someone as smart as him could make something like that up. So I followed them, down to the sewers for some odd reason. But I didn't question it or anything. Just went along with them in silence.
When we got to what looked like a lair, the turtles took me into the back area where there was a dojo. Odd, I thought to myself. There was a giant rat in a kung fu like robe sitting in the middle of the room. The turtle with the twin katanas bowed his head to the rat. "Sensei, we bought the Nightwatcher. And it seems... she knows who you are." He said, as I looked to him and then to the rat. Then my eyes widened in shock as I realized who the rat was and walked toward him slowly, my eyes starting to water. "Master... Yoshi?" I said, my voice shaking a little. The rat then looked to me with wide eyes and stood up, turning around to face me. "Angie... It is you." He said, speaking my name. I knew then and there it was him.
I had thought I had lost him. I had thought he was gone forever...
When all along he had be living under my nose... And had four more pupils it would seem, even if they were giant mutated turtles. And he himself was now a giant mutated rat.
I rushed to Sensei, and huged him tightly. Tears rolled down my face, as I burried my face in his chest. "Ohh, Master Yoshi! It's you! It's really you! I... I thought I lost you..." I cried, weeping and bawling like a baby right there in front of him and the turtles.
Sensei just smiled, and he ran his long clawed fingers over my ponytail. "Hush, Angie. It is me. But I am no longer Hamato Yoshi. I am now Master Splinter." He said warmly, as he used his other hand to raise my head up to he could wipe my tears. I looked up to him with watery eyes. "Splinter?" I said, repeating the name.
"Yes. Come... Sit down, Angie...
It's time you knew the truth." Splinter said, his eyes narrowed.
I knew he wanted to explan everything to me.
So I followed him, without question...
I was ready to hear... everything.
