Jas didn't know why Kala was there in her home but said nothing about it as she had her over for a week now and still didn't demand any answers from her, at times she would let Kala go with her to work while at times she did ask Kala at times if something was wrong but never gained an answer to it and simply left her be and went to her work and as Kala simply did what she wanted at the time while feeling bad for ignoring Jas but she was just not ready to tell her the truth for now and only wanted to keep it to herself for now even so she would say sorry to Jas for not telling her anything but she forgave her claiming that Kala could talk when she was truly ready to bring it up to her and doing her work once more as Kala went back to her own work while at times looking at her phone that was still turned off at the moment because she wanted to be left alone at the time when she first left the lair to be with Jas.
"I have to go back to work, there was a problem with an order and I need to go and fix it" Jas said making Kala look at her in surprise as she stood up, and went over to Jas who was at the door at the moment getting ready to leave for work "Could I come too?" she asked making Jas smile softly "Sure but remember that I'm busy so I can't play much with you" she said making Kala nod and get ready to leave with Jas who was still smiling softly towards her at the moment making Kala smile back to her as they then got outside and towards Jassie's car making Kala excited to get going without knowing that four shadow figures were watching her from a roof on the other side of the street getting into the car and driving away with the driver, Kala got to pick the radio channel as the two girls sang together at some of the songs as they got to her work place making Kala smile as they got inside making her smile as she greeted the other workers while going towards Jasmine's office to get her to begin her work as Kala sat on the couch in the office while Jas went to her desk to start work making Jas smile as Kala went to playing her video games there or drawing something making Jas wish to look at it at some point in the day.
Jasmine was more than happy to buy her new games they were out at the moment whenever she found out about them, she would also battle her in pokemon during the weekends with how she doesn't work during that time of the week making Kala happy to be able to have fun with her for a bit "Kala, I need to go to a meeting so then I can take you somewhere to eat alright?" Jas said making Kala look up and nod as Jas walked out of the office to get to her meeting making Kala then go back to her game, Jas wondered if things would be alright with leaving Kala alone at the moment in her office but then she shakes her head realizing she was going a little too far with those thoughts right now as she then kept going to the designing room where some of her workers were right now discussing about a dress they had to finish making Jas sigh as she moved over to the design of the dress that was made in four different ways.
"These details are not needed for the design, and this dress style isn't going with the collection" she said making some of the people look with wide eyes towards Jasmine as they went to work quickly to fix their mistakes, pencil in hand she went to one of the other two dresses that were badly made to look and went to work on fixing it while telling the workers what was supposed to be there instead making them take simple notes and watch her work swiftly and gently on the paper "Now, if any of you make this happen again, you will be fired understood?" she asked and didn't wait for an answer as she then left the room to get back to her office, she wondered how long she had made Kala wait and hoped it wasn't for very long as she saw Kala was looking at some of the outfits Jas was trying to choose for the catwalk that would be going for her fashion show in a few days from now "How do they look?" she asked making Kala slightly jump in surprise from her voice.
Some of the designs had fallen to the floor making Kala panic and move to pick them up with Jas moving to assist her even as Kala said she was sorry countless of times, when they were done Jas had noticed how some of the designs had a few words of thoughts from Kala while others also had minor changes to the outfits and details on color or pattern choices making Jas smile at the few she looked at before setting them back on her desk while Kala tried to figure out a way to be forgiven "Did you get hurt?" she asked making Kala shake her head "I'm fine" she answered making Jas smile to her "Well then, now that my work is done for the day, why don't we go somewhere to eat?" Jas then said making Kala smile and nod to the idea as they then walked out of the building to get going somewhere of Kala's choice to eat making Jas smile as she discovered something new about her once more thanks to this, Kala decided on a simple fast food place which to Jasmine's relief was good as she didn't think she could handle anymore high quality five star place right now or for a while to say the least.
After getting there orders the two girls went back home to eat with the fact that so many people were watching Jas since she was actually famous for her clothes and all of that, either way the girls ate and spoke about anything and everything to simply have time go on for the rest of the day making Kala smile at the moment to the fun she was having "I like those ideas you placed on the designs" Jas said making Kala look at her in slight surprise "I could use someone like you, with your taste in style you could bring in a fresh pair of eyes to the outfits to make them even better then they look on paper" Jas continued making Kala smile at her words "Think you can start helping for now as my intern?" she then asked making Kala confused "What is that?" she asked making Jas giggle "An intern is someone who is going to work somewhere for a year while going to school, they don't get payed but they do get experience in the work life and to see what they want to do when older. Right now your sixteen, i'll call you to a school claiming I have full custody on you and that you are my intern, if things go well until you turn eighteen at school and that the internship doesn't make your grades go bad then i'll let you work for me while still going to school" Jas explained as Kala's smile the whole time grew so wide that she could look almost like the Cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland.
Even so she was happy Kala was going to be able to work with Jas even more now then she does now and Kala couldn't help but thank Jas as she knew she had to tell someone but she knew that the boys would then come to take her and if she told Casey or his wife April then they would tell the boys who would then come and get her, she was stuck so instead she simply ran around and cheered in joy to her new path in life as she went to hug Jas as a simple thank you for now making Jas smile back to her as she promised that they would wait for the weekend first to start filling out the forms to say Jas had full custody now on Kala, then once it's approved they would work together on what school Kala should go to for her studies making Kala enjoy those terms as she could get herself ready for school and also have a bit of fun before then, Jas also promised her that once they start on the papers they would then look for a new board for Kala making her even more excited about it then before it was told to her as Kala explained she wanted a black board simply "Why is that?" Jas had asked making Kala giggle "Because I want to paint it myself" she had said making Jas smile and nod to her.
Jas had brought Kala first to get the paints she would need to work on the board making Kala run around for a bit, she wanted to find the right shades of color needed to work on it right after she gets it right before her first day of school "Do you think I could pick out a board and get a few days before school starts?" she then asked making Jas confused "Why do you need it a few days before school?" Jas then asked "Well, because to paint the design on the board takes time with multiple colors used on a board so it takes longer to dry with how you don't want the colors to mix and make a horrible dark color" Kala explained making Jas nod, Kala picked out a board she thought would be good for her and Jas payed for everything making Kala wish she had helped to pay for the items she wanted to get, but Jas made Kala fully understand that she wants Kala to use her money for herself when she wants to making Kala nod but still wish she did something for Jas.
"Would you like to eat some pizza?" Jas asked as she held in one hand a menu and in the other her cell making Kala smile and nod as Jas nodded back and went to calling to make her order, Kala went to the balcony as she noticed how her hair was slowly growing bit by bit as time goes by making her smiled as she then saw something moving from roof to roof making her try to see as she noticed a few figures making her eyes widen at who they were as she then quickly went inside to look it only for them to stop her halfway, they slowly walked in being Lucky with Jas going into another room so the four turtles walked in as Kala only wanted to run and hide or even call for Jas to come in and help her out with this situation "Where were you?" Leonardo asked but all Kala did was keep quiet knowing that at some point he would give up, but it didn't happen instead all four of them asked her questions about her leaving them and not answering there calls to come back or to explain her reasons but she still kept silent as they all spoke until the room went quiet making her simply go to the couch and lie down on it to read a book Jas allowed her to read.
"We were looking for you all over the city, if it hadn't been for April seeing you and Casey following you here we would still be looking" Leo said making Kala mentally remind herself to look around for anyone watching her or Jas the next time they both go somewhere, but she said nothing only going for the silent treatment at the moment not caring if they get mad at her for her actions as she wondered where Jas was at the moment to not hear any of this and to come back in the main room they were in "Kala, the pizza should be- oh! May I ask why you're in my home?" Jas glared at the four turtles who were now in her home at the moment making them look slightly scared of what she might do about them being there "I would like you four to leave, if you don't I will call the police and make sure that it wasn't me going crazy, but if you do leave I will pretend with my sister that none of this happened in the first place" she then said making the four turtles look at one another about all of this that was just said to them like a prize they couldn't refuse, in the end Leo made his brother's leave while glaring at Kala as Donnie looked confused at her actions, Raph looked worried yet glad for her being safe while Mikey just felt betrayed.
After they left Kala turned to Jas who simply smiled at her "No worries, tell me when you're ready to talk" she said simply as she went for her purse to get the money needed to pay for the pizza making Kala simply sigh in relief to her words at the moment as she turned the TV on to look at the news that should be there right now, yet to her shock she was the main subject, as the title was all "Mickayla Neutrino found!" or "Mickayla actually alive this whole time!?" on the screen making Kala panic a bit about it as Jas came over to her side quickly "Paparazzi, they keep looking for a scoop and now that they saw you the orphanage you were in is trying to figure out where I live to get you back" she explained making Kala nod as she trembled in fear until she saw Jassie's phone making her look at it confused "But I got your adoption papers filled in and they are now approved, even if she does find you she can't take you back now that your under my name" she explained making Kala smile to her with joy to the good news.
A few days later Kala was happy to be able to go to Roosevelt high now with Jasmine as she had now full custody on Kala, Jas explained that Kala would leave around lunch to join her at her work to be her intern making Kala always have a lunch with her to eat on the way to Jasmine's workplace making her always be done by the time she walks inside making Jas smile and explain to her what she would do for the afternoon, sometimes Kala would need to stay at school due to needing to know something or having a test but she would take back the time she missed at work on the weekends with Jas to simply watch and learn what some workers do making Kala take notes of it all and sometimes ask question to some people and or to Jas making them more than happy to take a small break to answer her questions, when they get back home Kala would do her homework, study for school, take notes on something, work on projects or even do a design for her internship at Jasmine's job as Jas would always tell her "Don't push yourself if it's too hard, take a break to relax your mind from time to time as I don't think it would be good if it fried" anything to make Kala laugh a bit from her awful jokes and make her do as she said.
"Kala! Someone called to talk to you, they say it's important!" Jas yelled, Kala was in her room at her desk doing some studying on old secrets of Japan that she would need to present as she chose the subject first as Jas then spoke to her about an old way they used to send to others certain secret products without others knowing making Kala want to know more about it, she stood up and went over to the phone that Jas held in hand making her sigh as she spoke "Hello?" she asked "Kala? It's Donnie. Look I know you haven't spoken, contacted or seen in some time but, Mikey is right now refusing to do anything if you don't come over for at least an hour" Donnie explained as Kala sighed as she looked through her new cell for her calendar "Can't, I need to see some classmates in an hour for a group project, then tomorrow I need to present a new fashion collection idea while also needing to work on secret trading technique from Japan. I don't have time to see him right now or tomorrow" she explained as she heard the faint voice of Leo asking about her as Mikey then spoke as Don gave them an answer "Kala, if you want tomorrow, they could meet us in my office for an hour and come over here for dinner?" Jas suggested as Leo came on the line "Will be there, just tell us the address and time" he said making Kala hand Jas the phone to speak to Leo about the info.
Kala went to get her things to meet up with three other students from her class at the library to work on the project they had to bring out on Monday, she took the papers she had prepared with the notes she took to help the trio in understanding what she discovered and prepared for the presentation making Jas smile to her as like she always did when going out, promised to be safe and left quickly for the library where the others were right now making her almost run towards the building as she faintly saw them going towards the entrance until she heard them making her hide "It's so cool that there letting us join!" one said "Yeah! But the initiation job is pretty weird" another said "True but come on! Once we get Kala to join and bring her there were in the Foot clan!" the first said making Kala's eyes widen as she quickly ran back home while blocking their numbers to do any sort of contact to her, she ran straight for her room leaving Jas surprised and confused about her actions "Kala? Is everything alright?" she asked but she was left with silence making her walk in to see Kala curled up in her bed making Jas sigh in worry for her "Did something happen?" she asked as Kala kept quiet making Jas sit at the edge of the bed as Kala lightly nodded to her question making Jas move to join her in the bed "It must have been very bad if you're in such a state right now" she continued making Kala once more nod making Jas close her eyes in thought before speaking once more "I'll call the school on Monday claiming you're sick, but you need to come with me to work at least and to talk to me about what happened to make you like this" Jas said making Kala nod to her words as Jas then nodded, kissed the top of Kala's head and then left the room.
Kala went to bed that time and waited for Jas to call her for diner and when she did she promised to tell her what happened in her office on Monday making Jas smile and nod, they ate together in slight silence with having the TV on it brought a bit of sound in the home they live in together making Kala at times see what show was on before going back to her food as Jas simply wished Kala was alright but she knew it wasn't possible at the moment from what might have happened to her to make her like this at the time, when the meal was finished Kala took the dishes and went to work on cleaning everything leaving Jas to take a bath first before Kala goes in to get cleaned before the next day comes, Jas decided to go to her computer and try to figure a few things out for the source of Kala being like this right now just as her phone rings making her wonder who it was "Who is this and how did you get this number?" she asked quickly "It's Leonardo, my brother's and I went out earlier and saw Kala going to the library. She saw some kids and then quickly left" he explained making her nod to his words "Yes, she came back earlier than planned when she had a project to do with some kids from her class, she wouldn't tell me what happened so I'm trying to figure something out on...line" she said as she then figured it out.
"Leonardo, there this group called 'the Foot clan' who are allowing young teens to join them, but they need to do something before they can join. I'm trying to figure out more and maybe if those kids are there but I'm blocked out from there website" she explained as Leo then said something to someone "I'm passing you to my brother Donnie, tell him the site and he'll figure out the rest" Leo said making her accept at that moment, she told Donnie everything and he went to work making her wonder what was going on for Kala to be like this at the moment "I'm in there site and at the same time I'm in the database for the school Kala goes to so I can know who is with her on the project to figure out if something is truly linked" Donnie said making Jas nod to herself as she waited for more info from about his discovery making her look at times towards the bathroom where Kala was at the moment "Okay, the three students who Kala is within the project went to join the Foot. But in order to join they had to get Kala to join with them" Donnie explained as Jas gasped to the news as Kala walked out and to her room to get dressed making her sigh when the door closed before looking to the phone in her hand "But why Kala? Why her of all people would need to join?" she asked making the faint sounds of voices be heard as Jasmine wondered what was going on.
"It's most likely due to a failed attempt in getting info from her. The Foot have been on us for years and they must still be after our lives even now after all this time being left alone" Donnie explained, Jasmine was having a slightly hard time in understanding all of this but when Kala walked out of her room changed she knew she had to protect her now from them making her sigh as Kala went to the kitchen "Alright, we can talk more about this at my work place" she said and hung up to then turn to Kala who watched her confused "Did they call again?" she asked making Jas nod to her question "Nothing important really to my luck" Jas explained making Kala smile and nod before sitting next to her on the couch as Jas had removed the Foot clan website before Kala walked out of the bathroom, with the TV still on the silence was removed with the daily news making them listen to it while Jas worked a bit as Kala was kept distracted at the moment making Jas thank the gods in her mind from the help she had just gained in being able to work a bit on a few things other than her job making her hope Kala would go to bed soon so she could fully work on that.
"On other news, mysterious crimes are being done around the city of New York, no one knows who does this or why but when people are caught on the act or fleeing from it they are then captured only for them to die later on leaving the message 'The dead shall never tell' on their body leaving families in despair from losing parts of their family, on the crimes scenes we can find the same thing: red spray paint making a foot and the message 'We shall rise to finish the war' beside the scene. More shall be explained once more info is collected" the reporter said making Kala shiver at the images and recording collected making Jas worry for her and place a gentle hand on her shoulder "Get some sleep, you had a tough day" she said making Kala slowly nod and went to her room making Jas glare to the TV and call Leonardo for the news that came on just now "I know, we saw it just now. Donnie is looking into it right now" Leo explained after the first ring most likely waiting for her phone call "Kala was trembling from this, I don't know what I can do to help her right now" she said making Leo sigh as Mikey's voice could be heard talking to Leo about something "Will come by right now if that's alright, but Donnie will need to set a few things up just to be safe for the both of you" Leo said making Jas accept and then give him a bit of info as to where they should come through to get inside her home.
It didn't take long for them though, once they knew where to land they moved in making Jas jump n surprise from them, Donnie got to work while using her laptop just to make sure no one tries to hack her or anything at the moment and to be safe from any viruses that may come their way "For now just try to delete any previous websites you go to in your history so that no one can use them against you" Donnie explained making her nod to his words and made sure to do so every once in a while to be safe, she sat at the couch and watched as the smallest turtle went into Kala's room while Raph simply stayed near the balcony making her wonder what he was looking for at the moment "It would be best to keep you both safe, one of us should be close by to you and Kala at all times just to be safe nether of you get captured" Leo explained making Jasmine nod to his words as Kala stomped out of her room in anger as Mikey followed after her, but her was stopped by Leo who shakes his head no to the youngest as Kala sat on Jasmine's lap on the couch making Jas wonder if something happened earlier in the room for her to be like this right now.
"Alright, I think I found something" everyone turned to Donnie at that moment "I hacked into the Foot base computers, it was easy with how powerful Jasmine's laptop is, anyway I was able to hack in to try and figure out there plans with all of this and it looks like Karai is desperate in taking us and sensei out now with how Oroku Saki is dying slowly from his age" Donnie explained making both Kala and Jas confused "Saki is known by the name of Shredder, he and our sensei Splinter who was before Hamato Yoshi were friends until both of them fell in love with Tang Shen, our sensei married her and had a daughter named Miwa. Filled with jealousy Saki attacked and instead of killing Yoshi he killed Shen and took Miwa away making our father believe Miwa died" Leo explained making the two girls nod as Jas looked a bit shocked at the story "But Saki raised her and named her Karai, when he discovered our sensei was alive and training students he wanted us all dead then and there, but he failed many times until our sensei died some time ago" Leo finished making Jas slightly look down in thought that no one noticed.
"Well, now Karai needs to do two things, first she needs to find young teens who would join and make them believe that were the bad guys, second that we kidnapped Kala and she needs to be rescued since those kids failed to bring her and third capture Jasmine, for what it doesn't say at all, it's like it's confidential or something" Donnie explained making them all turn to the girl who was looking down at the moment, no one said or did anything after that only kept quiet as they each did something as Donnie worked on Jasmine's laptop as Leo tried to understand what his brother was doing, Raph watching outside as Mikey played some video games, Kala slept and Jas was on her phone looking at something that was there at the moment making Leo, Donnie and Raph wonder about it as they at times looked at her from time to time but did nor said anything about it "Is there a way to figure out why they want me?" Jas then asked making them all look at her as Kala still slept at the moment "If we could get in their base to collect the info then yes but nothing else could be done if we don't figure something out" Donnie explained making her nod.
Jas stood, knowing it was late she told Kala to get to bed making her then move to do the same "I have some extra blankets and pillows you can use if you all stay here for the night, just be sure not to stay up the whole night and to close the lights and anything else you use before going to sleep" Jas said making them nod as she then closed her bedroom door making them look at one another in silence she got to her bed and looked over to her closet and sighed before getting to bed "Should we try and spy on some of the member's to figure more out or even figure out which one is the prize member of the clan?" Leo asked making Donnie and Raph look at him "It would be effective, since some of them might talk about them highly we could then try to find them and capture them so to make a deal with Karai" Donnie explained making them nod as Raph covered Mikey in a blanket as he was sleeping "But it was weird how Jas reacted to what we told her?" Raph asked making Leo look to the door in confusion at the moment, it was truly strange with her she reacted since they never saw her before now making Leo wonder about it all.
"Maybe if we go back to the old lair, we might be able to scavenge a few things and figure something out" Leo said making them all nod to the plan as Mikey turned to the side in his sleep, Leo went over to the balcony to think "But it doesn't make sense with why Karai also wants Jasmine" he said making Donnie look at him "Maybe there's a connection she discovered that we don't know about" Donnie said making Leo look at him in slight surprise "Maybe it's something important, and now Karai wants it to get her revenge on us all" he continued making Leo close his eyes for a moment to think, it would make sense to her reaction from what they had said earlier but why did she say nothing then? Leo wondered about it for a moment but the decided to leave it be "Will figure more out when we go back to the old lair to find some info" Leo said making his brother's nod to him in understanding.
