I own my OC ( Artemis Jaelyn Roberts ) but I DO NOT own any of the TMNT characters. (Leo, Raph, Donnie, Mikey, Splinter, April, Casey, Shredder and any other TMNT world characters that may be mentioned.)

Leo's POV

"Guys, shut up." I hiss down at my brothers.

"I'm not happy to be staring at your butt Leo." Mikey grunts from below me. I roll my eyes and carefully move the manhole cover. The main manhole that we used was in a small alley between two apartments. Naturally, we had to be very careful. Though, the one occupied apartment, the man was hardly ever home. If he was, he was sleeping or so Donnie thought. Donnie was usually right. The other apartment was unoccupied... Until today.

As I pull myself up from the manhole, I see a moving van in front of the apartment. My brothers follow me out and all of us are interested in the moving van. That apartment had been empty for years, why move in now? Maybe the price had dropped down and some needy person bought it. However, we all stay in the shadows. We had to know if this person would be a threat to us or not.

"Dudes, we have ourselves a new neighbour." Mikey grins.

A car pulls up behind the moving van and as a woman steps out, I rethink my 'needy person' idea. Or maybe she was needy but she most certainly didn't look like it. Her eyes were hidden behind big black sunglasses and brown waves of hair cascade down her back. She's wearing a shirt that stops at the waist and a pair of black leggings. Her heels were bright red, matching the red of her lips.

"The parking lot is around back ma'am." The man in the moving van says as he gets out.

"I know, I just want to take my fish up!" She giggles, reminding me of a child. "Could you grab a table and bring it up for me? Please? It doesn't matter what one as long as it's big enough to hold my fish." The man nods at her question and goes to the back of the truck with another man. They take out a table and start taking it up. The girl goes to the backseat of her car and opens the door, in the back is a fish tank that stretches across both back seats and is up to the roof of her car. It was full of water and colourful fish. She was not going to take that up by herself. The men come back down and go to help with the fish tank. They move that in while she goes to the back of the truck and pulls out a box labelled 'books' in big black letters. She stumbles with it's weight before regaining her balance and starting to walk upstairs.

"That is one pretty lady." Mikey smirks.

"Yeah, but what if she's a threat?" I ask him pointedly.

"That little thing a threat?" Raph snorts.

"Leo, I doubt she'll be a threat. She's quite small for what I assume her age is. I'm thinking she's about five foot two and about seventeen years old." Donnie says. "She won't hear us unless we're loud enough, and if you saw her lift the books... Strength wise she is quite weak."

"I know, I know." I sigh. "But we can never be too careful." The girl comes out again and we quiet down. She gets into her car and drives around to I assume the parking lot.

"Can we just patrol? It's almost nine." Mikey whines. "I want to skateboard too tonight."

I roll my eyes. "Yeah, let's go patrol."

So that's going to be my prologue. :3 I hope you all enjoyed.
