A.N: So, like I promised here is the first chapter. I'm new to writing these characters so tell me if I seem to make them a little too occ. I also forgot to write something in my intro, some parts of the story will be based off the movie Brave, Treasure Planet, Iron Giant, and other movie's that escape me at the moment. Also, about my transitions to scenes.
This means ))))))))))))2012((((((((((((( trastion to the next scene with the time it coincides. So if it transition to 1997, it's the year 1997
Yep, so that's that and- oh yeah! Thank you Luminesyra (one of my favorite reviewers, by the way), for reviewing.
Chapter One: A Regular Night Out
"We're heading out Sensei." Leonardo said to his teacher, Master Splinter, as he and his brothers started to walk out of the lair.
"Be careful, my sons." The mutant rat man said from his spot in front of the hall.
"Come on Sensei, when are we not?" Michelangelo asked with a smirk. Then his eyes widened as he realized what he said. Raphael, Donatello, and Leonardo all face palmed at their brother.
Master Splinter shook his as he watched Raph drag Mikey by the hand and followed Donnie and Leo out the Lair. Once they were gone, Splinter went down the hall and went into the training room. He walked up to a shelf and looked at the picture of himself with his wife, Tan Sheng and his daughter Miwa. He then looked behind him to check if any of the boys might have come back for something. But when he heard and saw no one, Splinter moved the picture to the side and went to the wall on the back of the shelf and opened a secret little door.
When it opened he pulled out a piece of an arrow. It was only the sharp end of it, the other end was broken and gone. Then Splinter reached in the little secret compartment again and pulled out a photo. There were six beings in the photo. One was of him, his robe a brighter red when they took the picture. Then there was his son's, the turtles, only a year old at that time.
Then, there was a girl who had brown, almost black short hair. She had sea blue eyes and a shirt to match, A black hoodie was tied around her waist. She held Raphael on her lap and Michelangelo was cling on to her around her neck. Master splinter had both Donatello and Leonardo on his lap, Leo was trying to poke Donnie who seemed to be more interested in the camera than anything else. Splinter looked back at the girl in the photo, he took in her every detail, her smile, her posture. It was the only think he could remember of this girl he met fifteen years ago. "Callaby, I want to tell them about you, but I can't break our promise."
)))))))))))))))))))) Still 2012 (((((((((((((((
Leo had signaled for them to stop at the tallest building in the area. They all looked down at the streets bellow, looking for any sign of trouble. All they saw was a stray cat looking for scraps and a few cars drive by on the street. "I swear if nothing happens tonight, I'm going to punch someone." Raph muttered. Mikey, who was standing next to him, did the wise thing and….moved three steps away from him.
"Come on Raph," Leo said, "Master Splinter said that it's good to just enjoy the break we had."
"Yeah," Donnie agreed, "It's like calm before the storm. We saved the world, and the foot ninja hadn't been active, but that doesn't mean they hadn't been defeated forever."
"But one day we'll take them down, right?" Mikey asked.
Leo answered, "Yes, Mickey, we will. Just not tonight."
Suddenly a scream was heard from the end of the street to the right. It was close to the Pizza Parlor where they usually ordered and had April pick it up from there. Raph said, "Finally, some fun."
"Alright, let's go check it out." Leo said, then the four brothers started doing jumps and flips from roof top to roof top. When they got to the end of the street, they looked to Pizza place across the street and saw shadows moving around in the alley next to the building. Without hesitation, the four turtles jumped to the ground and ran across the street to the small alley. They stopped at the entrance ready and looked in.
There wasn't much light coming from an orange worn down lamp on the side of the Pizza building. But there was enough to show a dirty alley with the usually box trash. There was a man in a black ski mask and black cloths lying unconscious on the floor. There was a Pizza box laying crushed on the floor, the pizza itself now on the floor trampled and all over the floor.
Mikey pushed passed his brothers and stood in front of them saying, "I can't believe it, why would someone drop a perfectly good PIZZA?!"
"Um, I think we should more focus on the fact that there is a guy unconscious on the ground." Leo told him. Suddenly, there was a small shadow change that only he noticed. Leo looked up to where the shadow could have come from and saw feet disappear from the edge of the roof
Donatello looked to his right and saw something and tapped Leo on the shoulder. "Um, Leo…"
Leo forgot about the figure and looked to where Donnie was pointing and saw a blond curly haired woman, huddled up against the wall next to the trashcan. Her scared eyes were darting back and forth between the brothers. Leo put his swords away and said, "Don't worry, we're-"
She screamed and got up, running passed them. Raph rolled his eyes and stepped to the side, letting the scared woman get to the sidewalk and run away. Donnie sighed, "There goes our only witness."
"Hey guys." Everyone looked to Raph who had walked to the wall of the building next to the Pizza Parlor. There was an arrow stuck to the wall, and on the ground straight under it was a broken revolver.
"Donnie, analyze please."
"Ok, so by the look of the guy in the ski mask, I'd say this guy attacked the lady that just ran off. She must have been buying pizza but after coming outside with it, he tried to mug her wallet or something. Then someone must have heard her scream and came faster than us, disarmed the man and took him out."
Raph pulled out the arrow and examined it with curiosity. Leo thought about what he said and then looked up to the edge of the building to where the feet disappeared. "I think I know who." Leo walks up under the fire escape end then jumped and grabbed a hold of the ladder.
"Leo, where are you going?" Donnie asked.
"I think I saw the person who came here, they went this way." He started to climb up the ladder and Donnie followed. Raph went over to Mikey who had been kneeling next to the Pizza, speaking soothing words to it. Raph grabbed him by the ends of his mask and pulled him away. "Come on."
When Mikey and Raph got to the roof, they saw Donnie and Leo looking around. Donatello asked,"Are you sure you saw something."
"Positive."
"Oh, great." Raph said, "So we're following someone that doesn't exist."
"Raph trust me, I saw someone."
"Did you actually see the person?"
"No but I saw their feet disappear over the edge so-"
"So we're wasting our time."
Mikey caught the smell of something warm and… "Pizza?" He looked down to see foot prints on the ground. Mikey bent down to get a closer look and noticed that the prints were made out of tomato sauce and pieces of melted cheese. He used his finger to wipe the stain and but it to his mouth. His brothers turned as soon as they heard nothing coming from Mickey's mouth. When they looked to see if he was ok, they saw him licking something from off the ground. Raph went over and picked him up by the tip of his shell and said, "What are you doing?"
"Eating pizza prints."
"What?" his brothers asked in unision. Leo looked down and noticed from starting from where Mikey was, there was some prints made out of Pizza toppings leading to the other side of the building. Leo then ran and jumped to the next building in front of them. When he landed, one hand on the ground, he saw right there in front of him was more of the same foot prints.
"This person must have stepped on the pizza while fighting the mugger. Let's follow it."
After fifteen minutes of following the trail it had eventually faded on top of the roof of a bait and tackle shop at the end of the west village. "Great now what? Raph asked.
"Um, I didn't think this part through."
"Of course you didn't."
"Well, we should just look around the area until we find the person."
"Or we could just ask that person." Mickey said pointing down to the side walk. The other's looked over the edge and saw a woman with long black hair leaning against the wall. She had on black everything; black boots, jeans, and hoodie jacket. All that except for her shirt which was grey with the RVCA logo on it. She had a bow leaning on the wall next to her and a pack of arrows with it. All they saw was long black hair covering a face. She was using some old newspaper to wipe the red sauce off the soles of her boots.
"That must be her." Leo whispered. "Let's land in the shadows and approach her slowly."
His brothers nodded and they did as he said. Even though they were trained ninja's and had been learning to land silently for years, it still seemed like it wasn't enough. Once their feet touched the ground, the woman's head shot up and she went for her bow. Leo yelled out, "No wait, we just want to talk."
But the woman had already slung her pack of arrows on her back and had her bow ready with an arrow. She took her stance and asked, "Why?"
"We just want to know what happened back at the Pizza parlor."
The woman's blue eye's narrowed and she took a step back, "How did you know?"
"Pizza prints." Mickey said.
The black haired woman looked down at her feet, "Oh shoot…." Then she started to mumble something under her breath.
Raph then said, "Not so sneaky now, are you?"
"Oh, and like you could do better?"
"Yeah. We already are, we're hiding in the shadows."
"Pfft, hiding like cowards."
Raph got angry and was about to charge to her if Leo hadn't put a hand in front of him. Leo then looked at the woman again, "We don't want any trouble."
"Good, then I'll just leave." She put her bow and arrow on a latch on her back and started to walk away.
Leo sighed and said, "Donnie, Mikey, other side." They both nodded and then ran, gaining speed as they ran along the wall next to the woman. She only saw a blur of green but stopped in her tracks as they disappeared in the shadows in front of her. There was only a little bit of light coming from a lamp hanging right over her, but she managed to see two figures in front of her in the shadows holding out weapons. She looked back and saw two other shadows holding weapons as well. "Why do you guys hide, I already know you're here."
"You really don't want to see us, we're um…. Different looking is all."
"Hey man, you have no idea of the friends I've made in the past, and now if you excuse me, I have to get going." She pulled out her bow and aimed an arrow with an odd shape end at Raph and Leo's feet. It hit the cement and then created some sort of smoke covering. As they coughed and tried to clear the smoke away, the woman turned to aim another gas arrow at Mickey and Donnie, but they had already sprinted into action.
Mikey ran out after her with his nun chucks but when he swung them, she caught that end and pulled. Mikey went forward and she ran around him once, elongating the chain and wrapping the weapon around him. The woman didn't have time to check what her opponent looked like and she just kicked him on his….shell? Not bothering to see why her attackers back was so hard, she turned to face Donnie who was coming inbound. He went for her feet but as he swiped his staff, she jumped over it and at the same time, hit him on the head with her bow. As he went down on the ground she backed away to observe her attackers. Before she could see who was her opponent with the staff was, a huge mass came behind her and pushed her to the ground.
Raph pinned the woman on her back by her arms to the ground and she started to struggle. She tried to kick him but noticed that his knees kept her from doing so. Raph laughed, "Don't even try and fight it."
"I can if I want….." The woman finally took a glance at the turtles and her eyes widened as she saw what they were like. "Oh my god…."
Leo came up from behind Raph and looked down at the girl, "Yeah, we're turtles, we were mutated but there is time for explaining later."
The girl was still looking at Raph with eyes wide and then her eyes traveled to the cracked part of his plastron and that's where things got weird. "I've-I've seen that before-wait a minute." She looked up at Raph and said in a familiar, motherly tone, "Raph-Raphael?"
A.N: Well, as some of you realized by now, I'm a person who likes cliff hangers. It just keeps my readers on their toes for the next chapter. So I'll leave this here, see how many reviews I get. If I get enough in the next week I'll continue. If I don't, well….i'm not going to leave it so I'll update anyway. I'm KikaKatTIOI, peace out!
