A/N It's Talkumi here, I am back literally almost two years later, gosh, I took a writing course in my Hiatus so here I am back and improved. To celebrate me coming back, I'll be continuing The Huntress. But for now, here is a new story.

Disclaimer: Don't own the turtles and probably never will.

Chapter One.

Leonardo took a deep breath and put his hands together as he sat in a lotus position. It was a precious moment, he hardly ever got time to just be be by himself. He valued these moments much more than he let on to his brothers. Leo sighed, happily and opened his eyes, they almost glowed as he stood up and stretched. Since when did this peace descend on him so easily? Especially with the current tension in the Liar. It wasn't a fight with Raphael, as it normally was, but a fight with the youngest of the brothers. It had started out as a normal patrol, no sign of trouble...

"Come on, dudes! Let's go skateboarding, we've got the chance to!" Michelangelo exclaimed at his brothers. It was like everything he had been hoping for. The sixteen-year old had started feeling cooped up in that stuffy Lair. He spent his days working on his unique artwork, or testing his exquisite skills at video games and cooking. But Mikey sought the surface. Mikey couldn't stand the unearthly smell of the sewer, or the noises down there; sometimes he wondered if it really was just LH under there.

Raph rolled his eyes at his little brother, " Ya jus' don' want ta head back home." Mikey chuckled and his eyes fell on his amber-eyed brother," Dude, of course I don't want to head back. It's been mondo boring down there"

Raph snorted and ran next to Mikey, to get a better view of his brother, it was strange, ever since they defeated Shredder the previous year, everything has been quiet and reserved. No worries, and it has helped Raph's temper. Oh, don't get him wrong, he'll still blow up at you. But not enough to cause physical pain, or enraged arguments. Currently the four brothers were running across the rooftops of their favourite city, just enjoying each others company. Donnie mumbled something and then looked at Leo.

"We can head to the Junkyard, since Mikey wants to go skateboarding, I need parts for the ShellRaiser anyway."

The Leader looked at his brother and shrugged, he smiled and then answered," Sure, why not? What could happen?"

Leo sighed as he headed out of the Dojo, their sanctuary, his sanctuary. How was he to know that the trip would go so haywire?

A/N Soooo? Tell me what you guys think, I'm super excited for this story. I'll probably add another chapter soon. With The Huntress, I'll try and get to it as soon as possible.R&R
