Disclaimer: I do not own TMNT but Emily is mine
Chapter 1: Gone Forever
April was busy cleaning her apartment. It turns out that her sister is coming to the New York for a visit. It's been awhile since the two had seen each other so they though it was time for a little get together. Robyn was bringing her 9-year-old daughter Emily. Emily had medium length blond hair with blue eyes. She looked exactly liked April, except for the blond hair and blue eyes. Her hair was in French braded pigtails. She wore a white tee shirt with pink overalls. Emily was a very shy child; she doesn't normally talk too much.
The Turtles were also over at April's apartment they had offered to help. Leonardo the one wearing the blue mask and Raphael the one wearing the red mask are cleaning the living room. Michelangelo the one wearing the orange mask was cleaning the kitchen and Donatello the one wearing the purple mask was helping April in the bedrooms.
Ring…Ring…Ring… Rang the Telephone.
"Hello, Robyn is that you?" April said as she answered the phone with a huge smile on her face.
"Yea April it's me, we are almost there, just a few hours left" replied Robyn who also a smile on her face.
"Is Emily with you, how is she?" April asked
" Yea she's here and just fine considered I just dragged the poor kid across country," Robyn answered back. " Emily say hi to Auntie April,"
"Hi Aunt April," yelled Emily from the backseat. She slept most of the way. I mean wouldn't you if you were 9 and you had to ride in a car from Seattle Washington to New York City.
"Well we'll let you go, we should be there soon," said Robyn "Take care."
"You too and be careful," answered April
"Bye," replied Robyn and Emily
After the apartment was cleaned the turtle's head back to the lair to do some of their own housework.
"Thanks guys for your help," replied April who was very grateful for their help.
"It's our pleasure April," said Leonardo who was smiling.
Anyways after the turtles had left April headed down to her shop to relieve Casey of shop duty. While the turtle were helping April, he offered to help watch the store until they were done.
"OK Casey the apartment is all cleaned so you are free to go," April told Casey as she came into the shop.
"What and leave a Babe like you alone running a shop by herself," Casey said as he out his arm around her.
"Don't call me Babe," April replied back pointing her finger at Casey.
"So when is your sister coming?" asked Casey changing the subject.
"Oh she should be here in a few hours and she is bring Emily with her. You know my niece. I haven't seen her since she was four years old. She is going to be huge compared to what I saw her as. They grow up so fast." April said answering Casey's question.
Several hours later the phone rang. April was too busy dealing with a customer so Casey had to answer it.
"Hello Casey speaking…" he replied answering the phone. "Uh… April it's for you," handing her the phone.
"Sorry Casey I'm a little busy," yelled April.
" I'll deal with them you need to take this," Casey insisted.
"Hello this is April how can I help you,"
"Yes Ms O'Neil I just want to inform you that your sister has been in a serious car accident and had been killed. However your niece is alive, but had to be taken to the emergency room at the hospital. We would like it if you would come down to the hospital right away." Explained the doctor.
April was in complete shock. She just couldn't believer what the doctor had just told her about her family. Good oh Casey was there with her trying to comfort her as they headed off to the hospital.
Back at the hospital April was almost heart broken when she saw her niece Emily lying in the hospital bed asleep. She had tubes all over her body, along with some cuts and bruises. It looked like it was going to be a couple of days before she was able to go home with April.
April just sat there as tears came running down her cheek while holding Emily's hand. She just couldn't believe this happened.
Casey had left to go inform the guys of what had just happened and to let them know where they are.
The doctor came in to talk to April and Casey about Emily.
"April do you know how I can get in touch with her father?" asked the Doctor.
"No I haven't really met her father. He took off and left my sister right after he found out about Emily," said April with a sad expression on her face as she explained to the doctor about Emily's father.
"Well then you will be able to take her home tomorrow if you like. She will still need some rest, but I think she might like it better to be with family than with complete strangers," replied the Doctor.
"Sure I would be glad to have her with us," said April who was looking forward to be able to spend some much needed time together.
"Yea it be nice to have a little one running around," Casey said who was also going to be glad to have her around. Casey though that having Emily around will help cheer April her up.
