This is my first fan fiction so please take it easy on me. Also will soon be publishing my series of fan fiction on here so reviews on this would be awesome. I am sorry if the characters seem out of place. I made this as quickly as possible top test out the website. Anyway I will stop jabbering and let you read. Enjoy!
Karai had never felt so free. She ran on the rooftops with the wind blowing behind her. This was how things were supposed to be. She belonged to no one. She could live in this moment forever. She was so caught in the feeling of the stars watching from above, Karai almost forgot why she was here. A shadowed figure had been running off to her side for quite some time. She rolled her eyes. Karai had forgotten long ago that he was there. However, there was no mistaking the blue lights smiling at her from the darkness. He wasn't trying to be stealthy. What was the point if she was already aware of his presence?
Sometimes she wondered why he tried so hard to befriend her. She was the last person on earth that deserved love of any kind. No one had ever loved her. Karai had never loved anyone either. That emotion meant nothing to her.
Karai stopped running as the cathedral appeared ahead. Her eyes narrowed. This had once been her home. The Shredder had pretended she was his daughter. She could almost hear his voice, gruff and low.
"Well done Karai."
"Dispatch of them immediately."
"The consequences would be...unfortunate."
Hands clenched in fists, Karai let her follower catch up. He wasn't tired, he simply didn't want to get his head lopped off if she didn't want him there. Karai knew why he was hanging back, but she didn't bother herself with saying she wouldn't kill him as soon as she saw him. Leo finally walked up next to her, taking in the cathedral with the tassels of his mask fluttering in the breeze. One of them flicked Karai in the face, but she didn't say anything about it. She needed him. If she scared him off now, which she didn't think was possible because he always came back, she would never take down the one man she hated the most.
Karai glanced at her friend, or the closest thing she had to one. She had lead him here, hoping he would catch on to her plan. Instead he looked at her with eyes that seemed to stare straight through her, to see past her secrets, her barriers, to see who she truly was through the masked emotions. She met his gaze with her hard amber eyes.
"What is this about Karai?" Leo asked. Karai crossed her arms.
"So you follow me all the way here just to ask me a dumb question that has the answer blatantly staring at you?" Karai smirked as she spoke.
"If this is about stealing something you can count me out." He said. Karai sighed. Did she have to spell it out for him?
"Leo, I brought you here so I could…" Karai stopped herself. She was awful at this kind of thing. "...Ask you for help." Leo raised a nonexistent brow and gave her a smirk of his own.
"Help with what?" He asked slowly, clearly waiting for her response. Karai rolled her eyes. He was so stupid, so dorky, but he was still; adorable. She looked at the cathedral for a second so Leo wouldn't see the surprise in her eyes. Where had that thought come from? Karai shook her head and focused her eyes back on Leo.
"I need to take care...of Daddy Dear." She said finally. Leo stopped grinning and gave her a hard stare.
"Not alone." Leo's voice was so stern, she felt a sudden image to comply to his wishes.
"That is where the 'help' part comes in. If you're up for it, we could take Shredder down." She responded. He gave her a look that said, 'Yeah, no.' "Come on.'' She searched for the right words. "I've seen you fight, together, we can take him down." Leo blushed a bit, but didn't waver. Karai sighed. "Look, I know you don't have a reason to attack Shredder, but I'll bet your hothead brother has been pestering you about it. He always wants to jump into that kind of stuff." Leo sighed and met her gaze with those shocking ice blue eyes.
"If you come down to the lair tonight, we'll go over it with my brothers."
"I thought you were the leader." Karai scoffed.
"In a situation like this, where someone could get killed, I would rather have their opinion than not." Karai nodded as if she agreed. However deep down inside, she was brewing up a recipe for revenge.
