Disclaimer: I do not own Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but I own my fabulous OC Maddie

Chapter 1: In the Dark Alley

It was a normal night in New York. It was cool out; a few clouds here and there. Besides that it was quiet, well except for the sounds of a siren blocks away and a few drunken kids stumbling across the street.

There was nothing weird about this night, unless you call a girl who's drunk and holding a joint in her hand weird.

Well then that girl is me.

I coughed. The smoke I was inhaling began mixing with the taste of whiskey in my mouth. I felt sick. Then again I always feel sick.

I leaned against the alley wall. I wasn't ready to walk out onto the street just yet. I dropped my joint into a puddle to put it out. Then I reached into my pocket and held onto something. My knife. No way was I gonna go anywhere without it. It was the only way to protect my self on the dangerous streets of New York. After all I was only a 15 year old girl. The streets were no place for me, but this is where I ended up.

I made my way out onto the sidewalk, sort of tripping around from the mix of alcohol and weed. I tried to compose myself. If a cop saw a teenager walking around in the middle of the night he would surely approach me. I didn't need that kind of trouble.

I kept on walking along, putting up my black worn out hood as I passed stores and people. I didn't want anyway one to see me. Not like this.

I was about to turn the corner when I saw a shop. It had tons of mirrors, even in the front windows. I walked over to it and looked at myself in a mirror.

I looked awful. My dark jeans had rips in them, my black sneakers looked old and worn out, and my tshirt was filthy. I pulled my black hoodie closed to try and hid the stains. I continued to look at myself.

I looked up at my face. It was terrible. I was pale, my violet eyes were puffy and bloodshot, my lips were chapped, and my long dark brown hair with pink highlights looked tangled and dirty. Overall I looked like a mess.

I shook my head and kept on walking. I went inside a bar. Normally they don't serve minors, but the bartender is a friend of mine.

"Hi Maddie! What can I get for you today?", said Jennifer, the bartender.

"Hey Jenny, just a beer please.", I said pulling down my hood and sitting.

"Sure thing hon.", Jenny said.

I've known Jenny for two years, she was 15 when I met her. She taught me how to take care of myself out on the street. She's like an older sister to me.

"Here you go sweetheart.", Jenny said putting a beer in front of me.

I reached into my other pocket and took out all the money I had. 8 bucks left. I sighed and handed my money to Jenny. She put her hand up.

"No, it's on the house.", Jenny said.

"I promise I'll pay you back, I swear.", I promised.

But I know I probably can't pay her back. I owe too many people money especially for all the alcohol and drugs.

She just replied with a quiet, "Okay."

I finished up my beer pretty quickly and went back out. I pulled my bottle of whiskey out of my pocket and put it up to my mouth. I took a big gulp, a chill of disgust rushing down my spine. I put the bottle away and proceeded down a dark alley. All of a sudden I heard a scream.

I walked towards it. I wasn't at all shocked to see what was going on. Some poor girl, definitely younger then me, was being cornered by those jerks who called themselves the Purple Dragons. My first instinct was to walk away. I know to never get involved in a scene like that because it could lead to getting yourself killed. But as I turned to leave I heard the conversation between the girl and the gang.

"Please don't hurt me! I'll give you all my money just please don't hurt me!", The girl said, tears streaming down her face.

"Now who said we wanted your money?", said the skinny guy who I guessed was the leader.

I cringed at that thought. I knew exactly what they were going to do to her.

The girl started crying harder and screamed at the top of her lungs as they began closing in on her.

That's when I snapped.

"Hey asshole! Get away from the girl.", I screamed and then quickly covered my mouth.

Crap. I guess I'm a part of this now.

The guys backed away from the girl and looked at me. She ran away. I knew she'd do that.

"You're welcome!", I screamed at the girl in a sarcastic tone.

My attention turned back to the men walking towards me.

"You think you're so tough babe?", The skinny guy said flipping out his switch blade.

My heart skipped a beat. I began to reach for my knife.

"Come on man, we don't need to do this. What do you want, drugs? Money?", I asked as I clung to the knife in my pocket.

"I think you know what we want.", He said walking up to me, grabbing my waist and pulling me closer.

"Let go of me you pervert!", I yelled trying to squirm out of his grasp.

"Now now, no need to fight back.", He whispered as he put his blade to my throat and moved his other hand to my thigh.

This is it, I'm gonna be raped and killed.

I shut my eyes as tight as possible. Just then I remembered my knife. I slowly pulled my hand out of my pocket.

"Good girl, now you won't feel a thing.", said the man with an evil grin on his face.

"You're right, I won't...", I whispered and then quickly slashed his face with my knife.

"GAH!", He screamed as he fell backwards.

I got into a fighting stance and waved my knife around. He got back up, wiping away the blood.

"You little bitch, we were gonna go easy on you, but I guess we could just beat the shit out of you instead!", He said as he grabbed my wrist making me drop my knife.

He then punched me in the face. Hard. I fell down.

When I opened my eyes he was standing over me and then began kicking me in the stomach and started punching again.

My body became numb and I was about to black out when everything stopped. I closed my eyes.

I heard a few punches being thrown and the sound of metal weapons. I heard a, "Let's get outta here!", and the sound of footsteps running away.

I couldn't move. I tried to open my eyes but I was so exhausted I couldn't do it.

So this is how I'm gonna die...

Then I heard some voices.

"Guys we can't just leave her here."

"Leo we can't bring her home."

"But if we leave her here she's gonna die!"

"Fine, do what you want, but it's your problem."

That was all I heard as I blacked out.

So what do you think? I know it is completely different but I like it. Anyway review please!
