Hello hello hello! Welcome back everyone to my Super Turtles story. I have wanted to do this story for a while for one reason, and that's because I love the Super Turtles. In fact one of my favorite episodes from the 2003 series is "Reality Check", and in a way it inspired me to create my own story with my own superhero. So hopefully, you all will love her as much as I do because she has the power to control nature; which I think is a unique superpower.
This story has been put back up and taken down a couple of times because I could not decide if it was worth having on here. I would read what I had at first and thought it was okay, but then when I would reread it later on I realized that it sounded terrible. It almost seemed like the detailing of it was rushed, and I took it off. However, some of you have been requesting and asking when this story would come back because you seem to really like the pairing I created, and you really wanted to see how it would play out. So I have decided to listen to your requests and give this story one last try. I have rewritten the first couple of chapters that I've previously posted because they really needed a redo, and I think they're okay (at least to me, I don't know about you guys). From there I will continue on with the story, and hopefully it will all work out.
A couple of things about this story before we begin: first, I am basing this story on the episode "Reality Check" from the 2003 series, not the comics. Second, the Super Turtles will be the same age as my OC (which is 21). Finally, I will do the best I can to give as many details to the city as I can base on the episode.
With that said, I am happy to present to you all "A Megatropolis Love Story". I do not own the Super Turtles and the other characters, only my OCs. Please enjoy:).
Chapter 1: The Unexpected Introduction
It is a dark, stormy night in the grand city of Megatropolis. The clouds were thick as the sky cried with heavy rain while the thunder roared across the heavens and the occasional lightning bolts light up the city. The only signs of life that can be seen throughout the city were the very vibrant lights from the large buildings, the sight of the automobiles either driving along the wet streets or hovering in the air, and the many citizens that are walking along the sidewalks with their umbrellas in hand. Megatropolis truly is a beautiful city that's full of life with its wonderful people. From the far side of the city stood city hall, standing so tall that it seems to reach the sky at the very top and as wide as a football field. When the doors of city hall open a small figure can be seen walking out holding a giant black umbrella in one hand and a black leather briefcase in the other. The person steps into the light of a nearby lamppost to fix her umbrella and it just so happens that this woman was Mayor O'Neil's head biologist, Maia Adams. She has long wavy hair as red as a rose, flawless fair skin, and these aqua eyes that shimmer like priceless gemstones. Maia has been working for the mayor for the past year and a half now, and even though she is a young woman she has more than proven herself in what she does; she is a gifted biologist, very intelligent in her field of study, and overall the kindest person you will ever meet.
On this rainy night Maia is on her way home from another busy day at work, and she honestly can't wait to finally kick off her heels and relax within her comfortable apartment. She walks near a large alleyway that is a couple blocks near city hall, which can save her some time and get her home faster than her usual route. Seeing that there is no one else around Maia makes the decision to take the shortcut down the alley. Normally Maia wouldn't be this crazy enough to down such a sketchy looking alley, but since it's raining and really really cold she could care less. It is going well for her until there is a strange rattling noise coming from one of the many trashcans in back of her as she turns around to see if anyone is there.
"Nothing." Maia thinks to herself as she slightly shakes her head, "Perhaps it's just my imagination."
She starts to walk again, but within less than a minute the same rattling noise can be heard, only this time it is closer to her. Now she is beginning to freak out, and to make matters worse she is all alone with not a single person around. Maia mentally kicks herself and wishes now that she didn't go down this alleyway. Just as she's about to turn back a pair of hands grab her from behind, covering her mouth to quiet her screams as they ram her against the wall. From the darkness three thugs appear holding blaster pistols in their hands as they take Maia's briefcase and umbrella and throw them away. The thug leader comes closer to her as his men hold her down, reaching out with his robotic hand and strokes her face.
"Well looky what we got here boys. A little lady walkin' all alone in our part of town." He said as his hand trails off of her mouth and down to her waist, "You know we haven't been with a real woman in a long time, Doll, and do you know what happens to a man when he hasn't had a good fuck in a while?" He asks as his hand makes its way to her breast.
Maia is too terrified to speak to him as she hisses from him touching her.
"They can get very rough." The leader purrs in her ear, nipping her earlobe and squeezing her breast hard.
Maia yelps and jerks her head away in rage, "Don't you fucking touch me you bastard!"
"Oh! We got us a feisty one boys!" The leader says and makes the others snicker, "Better not let this one get away. At least not standing on two feet."
She attempts to pull herself free from these creeps, but cannot get out of their grasps as she immediately knows what they plan on doing to her.
The leader rips open her button-up blouse, almost tearing it to shreds, "Now let's cut the bullshit and have some fun with this one boys." He said as the others begin to touch her roughly.
Maia whimpers as she feels them take advantage of her, their hands and lips touching the upper half of her body, "Let me go! Please!" She pleas to them feeling so helpless and scared. Then they begin to touch her below her waist, lifting up her skirt in the process causing her to get angry as her eyes begin to glow white and she decides to fight back, "Let. Me. Go!"
All of a sudden the two thugs that were holding her down are electrocuted by the lightning and they fall to the ground, groaning from the intense pain. Maia takes this chance and kicks the leader in the groin, causing him to kneel on one knee holding his crotch. With the window of opportunity finally open Maia tries to make her escape, but is caught by the leader's robotic hand on her ankle and she falls onto the concrete. The thugs surround her as their leader straddles Maia and holds his pistol against her head, making her stare at him with wide eyes.
He glares at her with a pissed off look, "Pull another stunt like that again and it'll be the last thing you'll ever do." He has one of his partners take his pistol and he opens her blouse to expose her body.
Maia cries as she feels his lips on her body and she continues to fight with all her might, "Get the hell off of me!"
A thug presses the pistol to her head, "Hey! Keep your fucking mouth shut!"
Maia doesn't listen and keeps screaming, praying that someone will hear her through the storm. The leader once again lifts up her skirt, pulls down her panties to her ankles as he spreads her legs far apart, and he unzips his pants and is close to exposing his penis from its confines, "Help! Somebody please, help me!"
Just then Maia hears the sound of a whip cracking through the thunder as the leader is yanked off of her before he attempts to rape her. The leader can be heard being beaten as he fails to fight off the attacker, and soon there is no sound coming from him. The other two thugs pull out their pistols and fire a few shots at a floating shadow that easily dodges them and lands in front of the thugs. Maia's rescuer disarms both of the thugs with their whip, runs up to one of the thugs closest to her, and punches him multiple times until he is knocked out. The last thug pulls out a knife and attempts to stab the attacker, but they see it coming and uses their whip to fly into the air and move swiftly behind the thug. When they return to the ground they grab the thug with their whip and beat him until he's unconscious. This stranger then gathers all three of the thugs and handcuffs them together to a nearby pole, ready for the police to pick up and throw them in jail.
Sensing that the danger is over Maia slowly sits up while pulling her panties back up and finds her rescuer standing in front of her. It turns out that her rescuer is one of the Super Turtles, the courageous heroes of Megatropolis; and to make it even more unbelievable the turtle that's standing in her presence is the leader himself, Graviturtle. He stands there at almost six feet tall, wearing his purple cape with a giant red G on the back, his purple and red mask on his head, and his signature whip attached to his belt.
"Are you alright, Miss?" he asks her with a strong, almost soothing voice.
Maia nods slightly as she tries to cover herself with her ripped blouse and pull her skirt down, "… Y-Yes. I'm alright."
The superhero extends his hand out to her to help her up, "Here."
She looks at his hand then at the hero and she takes his hand, standing up slowly, "I can't thank you enough for saving me from those men, Graviturtle. If you hadn't shown up when you did…" Maia pauses as she swallows the growing lump in her throat, hugging her body as she cannot seem to finish her disturbing thought.
Graviturtle puts his hand on her shoulder being as gentle as he can to ease her, "You have nothing to be afraid of anymore, Miss. These men will be brought to justice and will never hurt anyone else again."
Maia looks at him and lightly smiles, "… I know, and it gives me comfort to hear that. Thank you, Graviturtle."
"You're welcome, Miss." He says and gathers her umbrella and briefcase, handing them to her, "Forgive me, Miss, but I failed to catch your name."
"I'm Maia," She says, holding out her hand this time to him, "Maia Adams."
Graviturtle takes her hand and shakes it, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Adams."
"The honor is all mine, Graviturtle." Maia lets go of his hand and soon feels a chill run down her spine, "I should get going."
"Hold on a minute, I can't let you walk home like this. Not in the condition you are in. I'm giving you lift home." He says to her.
"What? Oh no! I'm fine, Graviturtle, really. I can walk the rest of the way, and besides you've done so much for me already. It just wouldn't seem right." She tells him.
"It's not a problem, Ms. Adams. Either way I wasn't planning on letting you walk all alone, especially in this weather." He says in a very serious tone.
They stare at each other for a few moments until Maia sighs, realizing that she isn't going to win this argument, "Alright. You win."
He nods, "Good."
She sees him take out his whip and hold out his arm, waiting for her, "What are you doing? I thought we were leaving."
Graviturtle couldn't help but chuckle, "We are, but I need you to wrap your arms around me."
"Why?" Maia asks, giving him a confused look.
"You'll see." That's all he tells her.
Maia walks a couple of steps towards Graviturtle, still not understanding why he wants her to touch him. However, she does what he's asked and hesitantly wraps her arms around his neck as she holds on to her belongings. Graviturtle cracks his whip as it circles around them making him fly in the air, and also causes Maia to freak out as she holds onto him tighter. The fly out of the alley and around the city with Maia directing him on where to go, seeing Megatropolis shine brightly in the night through the heavy rainfall. This city really was glorious, despite all of its problems.
Eventually they reach Maia's apartment on the top floor of one of the most expensive complexes in the city. Graviturtle sets her down on her balcony as she straightens herself out, doing her best to cover up any exposing skin. She digs into her briefcase and pulls out her keys, but accidently drops them due to her cold wet hands. Before she could reach down to get her keys Graviturtle bends down and picks them up, going to the giant glass door and unlocking it for her. As Maia takes a step forward her legs give out from being exhausted and freezing, but Graviturtle catches her in time and carries her bridal style into her home. He sets her down on her bed and goes to lock her door so the cold air won't get in. After Maia takes off her shoes she goes to stand up only to plop back down on the bed, feeling so drained from the cold rain and being attacked by those men.
Graviturtle walks up to her, "Try not to get up. You need to regain your strength."
"I know. I was trying to go to the bathroom to get in the shower. The warm water should help me feel better." She tells him as she sounds tired.
He puts his hands under her legs and on her back, carrying her in his arms again, "I'll take you there."
"Thank you." She tells him and he walks to the right side of the bedroom to her bathroom, setting her down on the toilet. As he's about to leave, Maia stops him, "Graviturtle. I hate to ask this, but could you stay here with me until I'm done? I know it sounds ridiculous, but after what I've been through I don't want to be alone right now."
The superhero stares at her in almost disbelief by her request. No one has ever asked him to do something like this before, but how could he leave this woman alone after ordeal? It goes against everything he fights for. With this in mind, he nods his head in agreement, "Of course. I'll be outside in case you need me."
Maia lets out a breath of relief, "Alright."
Graviturtle leaves the bathroom to give Maia her privacy as she gets ready to take her much needed shower. She takes off her drenched, torn clothes and looks at herself in the mirror, checking her body for any kind of markings that could have been made by those thugs. Seeing that she had no marks on her skin Maia turns on the hot water in the shower and steps inside, relaxing as the water touches her body. Maia soon warms up as she is washing her hair and skin with her apple scented shampoo and conditioner and lavender body wash, the bathroom instantly smelling fresh from the soaps. Several minutes later Maia turns off the water and steps out of the shower, drying herself off and having a little energy return to her. Maia puts on a clean pair of panties, a long white nightgown, and her fluffy white bathrobe and leaves the bathroom.
When she walks into her bedroom she sees Graviturtle standing in front of the glass door, staring off at the city and having a strong focused look planted on his face. He hears Maia come in and sit on her bed, taking his eyes off the city and turn to her. She definitely looked a lot better than what she was before, that gives him comfort knowing this and not worry too much.
"How are you feeling, Ms. Adams?" He asks her.
Maia smiles at him, "Much better. A little worn out, but better."
"That's good to hear." Graviturtle says as he stares deeply into her aqua colored eyes.
Now that she's safe from harm, he begins to really get a good look at Maia. There's no doubt in his mind that she is the most beautiful he has ever seen in his life. Her skin looked radiant, her hair a vibrant red, soft pink lips, and her eyes… they were mesmerizing. She was a natural beauty, a literal goddess that had fallen from the heavens. His eyes catch hers and they just stare at each other, almost getting lost in the others eyes, his dark brown against her aqua blue. A moment later Maia looks away from Graviturtle, a light blush painting her cheeks while the gravity hero rubs the back of his neck and clears his throat.
"Graviturtle," Maia grabs his attention, "I… thank you, for everything."
He nods at her, "You're welcome, Ms. Adams."
"Please, call me Maia." She tells him and asks him one last question, "Will I ever see you again?"
He smiles and chuckles, "I think so. Only fate can tell."
"I see." Maia sees her hero walk to the door and she stands up to see him off, "Farewell, Graviturtle."
"Until we meet again, Maia." Graviturtle says to her and cracks his whip, flying away into the night.
With the Super Turtle gone and out of sight, Maia locks her door and climbs into bed to get some rest. Tomorrow was going to be a long day and she needs all of the sleep she can get.
One Week Later…
The Super Turtles are waiting for the arrival of Mayor O'Neil as they are attempting to solve the strange activity of a super virus that's been spreading throughout Megatropolis in the past few days and mutating some of the plants and animals it infects. This has been a very weird situation for them as they can't seem to figure out where it's coming from and what's causing it. What will be interesting for the turtles is working with the biologist from the mayor's office that is assigned to this case.
"I hope this scientist isn't such a stick in the mud like the last one." Griddex says sitting on the long curved couch.
"He was only a stick in the mud because he wanted to solve the problem with the city's main water supply." Shellectro said, reminding his larger brother about a situation in the past.
"At least we're dealing with a virus this time around." Bloboid says.
Griddex gives his youngest brother a weird look, "You're making it sound like it's a good thing."
Bloboid shrugs his shoulders, "I'm just saying."
"Stay focused guys." Graviturtle brings them back to reality as the hangar opens, "The mayor is here."
The helicopter lands down on the platform as the Super Turtles wait for the mayor to step out. When the doors to the helicopter open, two security guards walk out, then the mayor's assistant, and finally the mayor herself. The mayor's biologist is collecting their paperwork as they wait for the mayor to call them.
"Super Turtles," Mayor O'Neil begins to speak, "Megatropolis needs your help to stop this virus outbreak before it becomes unstoppable. You must get to the bottom of this."
"We will Mayor O'Neil." Shellectro said.
"Yeah, but we're going to need your biologist to help us out on whatever it is we're dealing with." Griddex tells the mayor.
"Right. Adams!" Mayor O'Neil calls to her biologist who is still waiting in the helicopter.
Not even a moment later a familiar young woman steps out the helicopter wearing a white collar blouse, a black dress skirt that reaches to her knees, black pumps, and a gold necklace with three white opal stones. It didn't take Graviturtle too long to recognize the woman in front of them, her aqua eyes shining in the distance. Mayor O'Neil's biologist is the same woman that he saved around a week ago, Maia Adams. She walks to the mayor and stands by her side, shocked to see her hero again face-to-face in a professional manner. Regardless of that thought, Maia is going to keep everything that happened to her out of her mind for the sake of this case.
"Gentlemen, I would like for you to meet my head biologist, Maia Adams. She is the one that has been working on the virus since it first broke out." The mayor introduces her to the Super Turtles.
Graviturtle goes up to her and shakes her hand while keeping his composure, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Adams."
Maia gives him a sweet smile as she remembers this moment from when she introduced herself to him, "The pleasure is all mine, Super Turtles."
Whew! Finally done with the first chapter! What do you all think? Do you like my pairing with Graviturtle and Maia? I'm hoping you all enjoyed the rewrite of this chapter with the added stuff I put in, but as always you are my judges. The next chapter will be rewritten and coming soon, that I can guarantee you, so be sure to stick around.
