*Chapter 2 *
This is my time to prove the guys that I could be in a mission. On a hurry, April ran through the streets, hoping to find Leonardo. The moon gleamed under her and the cool night breeze brushed against her skin as she ran. I am getting worried to Leo. Where did he go? 'She realized that having her feet on the ground was not enough to find a broken person. He's a ninja. April remembered. The greatest possibility is he is on top of a certain known place.
April stopped as if hitting a brake while dusts from beneath her shoes shoved the ground. She turned her head above and saw a fire escape, waiting for her to climb. She instinctively grabbed a bar, and launched herself up against the pull of the gravity. At the first step, her legs trembled, as if they had their own brains. But as she continued to climb up and thought about great and...pretty things- like ponies and unicorns- her blood pressure lowers making her a bit calm.
She never knew why, but she tried to turn her head a bit. The ground seemed to pull her down, as if she already fell down. She shook herself out of the thought and focused once more. As her foot reached the second to the last step, she unluckily slipped, and fell. But still, it wasn't her time. She quickly grabbed a bar, holding her to safety. Maybe falling down from a building isn't the way I'm going to die. Her heart became extremely heavy, and her hands became sweatier. Despite of the nervousness, she continued to climb up until she reached the rooftop.
She almost worshipped the floor, as she laid her back there, panting heavily. She wiped the sweat out of her forehead and blinked. Phew. That was a close call. She pulled herself up, and wiped the dirt from her shorts and her back. "Now I landed on the rooftop, no bruises, no ninjas around, and no aliens after me. Probably one of my 'Top Ten' achievements," She muttered to herself. It wasn't bad to praise yourself once, was it?
April grabbed her binoculars from her bag and peeked on it. She scanned the other buildings, finding any weird figures or such. She suddenly stopped when she saw something suspicious. She went towards the edge of the rooftop and focused the binoculars to see the silhouette clearer. It was...slim, wasn't moving and seemed to be tied with something. She gasped shortly and recognized it. Is...is that.. Karai? Her eyes narrowed as she placed the hand holding the binoculars to her side.
Thousands of questions entered into her mind. Why is she there? What is she doing in there? There was only one way to know it. April folded her knees, in a half-sitting position. She opened her bag and placed the binoculars back inside her duffel bag. Inside the bag, she also saw the grappling hook that Donnie gave to her. "Now this could be useful," She did not hesitate to grab it. She stood up and squared her shoulders.
April stood straight and aimed the grappling hook at the fine wall of the rooftop where she spotted Karai. The hook flew and suspended in the air, as the claw-like metal held its tight grip on the wall.
"Finally. A not so stupid grappling hook," April grabbed her tessen as she used it to cross through the ropes the grappling hook had made. She held her trusty weapon very tight, not wanting it to slip from her grasp and fall painfully on the ground. She positioned herself at the corner of the rooftop and launched herself towards the other building.
She landed on the concrete floor, softly and swiftly. She wiped the sweat out of her forehead and placed her tessen back into her pocket. She quickly rushed towards Karai, who was tied with ropes and unconscious. April bit her lip and took a step forward.
"Karai? Hey, are you alright? " April placed a hand on Karai's shoulder and shook her gently, trying to wake her up.
The black clad kunoichi moved her head an inch and moaned, an indication of waking up. "Leo..." Karai slowly fluttered her eyes open and saw a figure from her front. She tried to escape from the ropes but failed.
"Leo?" April whispered as she raised a brow. She immediately wondered why Karai mentioned Leo. She quickly formulated an intuition that Leo and Karai had encountered each other.
The kunoichi's vision became clearer, as she recognized the person in her front. "April O'Neil," She hissed and saw that April was in front of her. She wasn't sure what to feel first. An enemy of her was right under her nose, and was trying to help her. How many hours have I slept?
"Why are you doing this? I'm your enemy, remember? I've hurt you before, so why don't you just leave me," Karai bowed down and closed her eyes.
"I am just doing this because I heard you mention Leo's name," April just answered, without looking at Karai straight onto her face. She unconsciously stopped for a second, as she closed her eyes.
Leo... Right... My- I mean, Leo..'When Karai heard Leo's name, she closed her eyes tighter and clenched her fists. With few more seconds, the ropes finally set her free.
April stood up, and then looked at the amber eyed ninja. "So where is he?" She watched as Karai slowly opened her eyes.
Karai took a deep breath. "Do you trust me?" Karai asked, as she finally looked straight at April.
"I need to. I need to find Leo, I mean, we need," April suddenly felt heat running up to her cheeks, which later on made her blush a bit. Come on April! Snap out of it! You know you have no chance to Karai.
Karai noticed April's reaction, which made her jealous. She raised a brow and placed a hand on her hips.
The red haired teen became nervous of how Karai fixed her posture. She just gave an awkward smile. The two girls stared at each other for some minutes. The atmosphere was building its tension and the two were like standing at the middle of the desert, with tumbleweeds rolling around them.
"Actually, it was my fault, " Karai was the first to break the utter silence as amber orbs met the ground.
"Your fault?" April asked in confusion, raising a brow.
"I saw him, here, sobbing like a little child, talking to himself," Karai said to April, with a tune of sarcasm.
"Then what happened?" The teen followed the kunoichi as they walk around the rooftop.
"We talked about our private lives and private activities," Karai stopped and faced April, giving her a smirk. A smirk saying, have you ever done that before with him?
April understood Karai, so she quickly added, "Uh... What is it all about?" She asked with a short laugh.
"Some are too personal for you to know," The kunoichi gave another smirk.
The red haired teen's eyes grew large. She just shook the teasing from Karai and inhaled every bit of it. "Please... Tell me... What happened to Leo? " April's tune was begging, her blue eyes were asking for some pity.
Karai clenched her fists and closed her eyes. "That stupid careless brother of him! He makes my blood boil!"
"I already know that," April rolled her eyes below.
"The thing is... Xever and Chris attacked us,"
"What?!" April bolted. "I thought, you were their ally, then why would they leave you here and-"
"I sneaked out from Shredder," Karai cut off April. The red haired teen became more confused for now.
"Wait. Do you still believe in Shredder, I mean..."
"Leo also told me that," The raven haired teen cut off again. "What if you call the others so that they could know what really happened to Leo instead of just standing there and asking about my privacy?" Karai said, sarcastically, raising a brow and placing a hand on her hips. My signature pose.
"Oh yeah, yeah you're right! " April grabbed her T-Phone from her pocket and clicked on Donnie, Raph and Mikey's contact numbers. "Guys, I found someone,"
The red clad turtle was seen standing on a rooftop, one leg kneeled. He checked every building as far as his eyes would take him. Suddenly, from his pocket, he felt a short vibration. A phone call. From his side he grabbed the T-Phone. "Guys, I found someone," It was April's call.
"Someone? What do you mean?" Raph's voice gave a confused tone. He chose between Leo or another something that would surely give them problems.
"It's a long story, Raph. Get in here," April said from the other line, strictly commanding the sai wielding turtle.
"Alright April. We'll be there for some minute," The purple clad turtle said, calmly. Every turtle (except Leo of course) heard the news then turned their phones off.
The night breeze slowly drifted against the orange banded turtle's face, his bandana tails fluttered with the slow wind. "How long would you be lost, big bro?" He sighed. He turned his head above and stared at the night sky, dotted with some stars. He scanned the imaginary dome for a specific star; the brightest star beside the moon.
When they were younger, he and his brothers usually goes in a place somewhere in the sewers. In that particular spot, Leo once showed him that star.
"Look at that, Mikey," He still remembered that time, his brother's voice was clear. He turned his head above, where the gutter of the sewers was placed. From there, they could both see the clear night sky and the bright moon.
"What is that exactly, Leo?" The freckled turtle asked, his eyes were full of curiosity.
The larger turtle giggled softly and stared back at the sky. "Those little stars; they may be small from here, but I know that they are big. Maybe a lot bigger than the city above," He pointed at the twinkling stars above with a very unique smile.
"Hmmm?" Mikey raised a brow and stared at the stars. "No, they can't be," He shook his head and pouted.
"Do you know what they could do?" Leo smirked at Mikey. The freckled turtle shook his head again.
"What?! Come on, tell me!" The little turtle leapt from where he was sitting. He couldn't hide the excitement on what was he about to hear.
"They could grant wishes," The older turtle grinned and pointed his finger at the brightest star.
"Really?! Wow, amazing!" He rolled his eyes at the direction where his brother was pointing.
"That star; just try to find that and whenever and wherever you need help, somebody will come," He smiled at his little brother.
The freckled turtle smiled the largest, his eyes the size of platters. "Have you ever done wishing?"
"Yes. You, Raph and Donnie came at my aid," The older turtle grinned once more and patted his brother's head.
"Wow!"
"I know. So if ever you need my help, find that star and I will surely come,"
"Okay!"
"Remember that, Mikey,"
"I will!"
He sighed of remembering the memory. He looked at the bright star and closed his eyes. Come to us, Leo.
He raised his head and stood confidently. He knew he must keep searching for his brother. He turned around, hoping to find him. His baby blue eyes roamed from left to right, still no sign of his eldest brother.
Jumping from rooftop to another rooftop, he could feel his legs getting heavier. He's being exhausted and worn. "I think I needed some pizza break," Mikey stopped for a while and decided to sit down for a short while.
From his side, he heard his T-Phone ringing. "Ohh! Finally! News! " The nunchuck wielding turtle grabbed the phone and saw April's incoming call.
"Guys, I found someone," Someone?
"Someone? What do you mean?" It's Raphie's voice.
"It's a long story Raph. Get in here," April is kinda, commanding Raph. Whoa, cool dudette.
"Alright April, we'll be there for some minute," Donnie assures that we'll come for April. Suddenly, the phone's screen turned black. "Hey! I'll ask some more! How could I know where is April ?!" Mikey panicked. He circled around, finding answers in his 'hollow' brain.
From nowhere, Mikey spotted a familiar silhouette. He focused his eyes to it. "It's Raph!" Phew. I thought I would be stucked in this place forever. "Raph! Raph! Hey dude! I'm here! Your cutest brother! " The freckled turtle shouted, waving his hands, and calling his older brother for attention.
"Raph! Raph! Hey dude! I'm here! Your cutest brother! " Raphaelheard his name being called. He rolled his eyes around, finding out that it was from his little brother. Mikey.
He went to the building where his brother was currently on.
"I'm glad you heard me!" Mikey said with glee.
Raph rolled his eyes and frowned. "What's your problem huh, Shellbrain?"
"Uh.. Uhhm.. Mmm… Uh..."
"Quit thinking because it's no use! Just tell me your problem, you dork!" The sai wielding turtle raised his voice, annoyed with Mikey.
"Fine," Mikey rolled his eyes. "You see… My T-Phone died. I heard April's call and she said we must come to her. The problem is… I don't know how."
I don't know if I'd kick, punch Mikey, or what. When Raph heard this, he just sighed. "Okay. Let's talk later about how well you saved your phone's battery," The forest green turtle grabbed his T-Phone from his back. "See this dot?" Raph pointed at the screen.
"Uh...Huh" Mikey answered with a nod.
"This is what Donnie calls the GPS."
"G-P what?"
"Stop asking or I'll slice your shell into two! This is where April could be seen. We must keep following this, understood, numbskull?"
"Yes," Raphael raised his non existing brow.
"Alright, follow me," The two teenage ninjas started jumping from building to building using high jumps and back flips.
The two turtles reached the building where the GPS lead them. From there, they spotted their brother Donnie with April and…
"Hey wait… is that… ?" Mikey gasped in surprise, seeing Karai.
Raphael gritted his teeth. From his back, he grabbed his twin sai and then twirled it, as he went nearer to Karai. "Karai! Where is Leo! Where did you take him!"
April went to Raph, stopping the raging terrapin. "No, Raph, wait,"
From behind, Karai placed a hand on her hips and stared sharply to Raph. "So you already know that you are the reason why Leo is not here, right, Raphael?"
"Would you, get out of this!" The emerald eyed turtle pointed the tip of his sai to the kunoichi. The girl just rolled her eyes.
"Calm down, Raph," Donatello went to his older brother and tapped his shell to cool him off.
"Karai can help us," April turned to Karai.
"Xever and Chris took Leo," Karai became more serious.
"What?! Fisface and Rahzar?! But why!?" Michelangelo yelled and panicked.
"Their real mission was to get me back to Shredder but when they saw Leo, they took the chance," Karai explained the details further to the turtles.
"Wait. Let me clear myself to you. You, went out of Shredder?"
Donnie stepped forward and raised his nonexistent eyebrows. This gets more confusing the longer I ask.
"He just wanted everything to be done. But that's not important for now. We need to get Leo back. I'll spy Shredder,"
The purple masked turtle picked something from his side. A T-Phone. The bo wielding turtle handed the phone to Karai. "Use it."
The kunoichi grabbed the phone from the turtle's larger palm. "What is this?"
"T-Phone. We use it for communication. Our numbers are registered there, including Leo's," Donatello gave a little smile, and Karai responded with a nod.
"You have an extra one Donnie, sweet," April tapped Donnie's shell and smiled.
"Uhh. Heh Heh!" Don smiled, revealing his gap between his teeth and blushed. "I made it just in case Mikey breaks his own, " The purple clad turtle scratched the back of his head.
Raphael gritted his teeth. This is not just right. I will not trust this witch. "Do you really think we could trust this woman?" The red clad turtle crossed his arms across his plastron.
Her amber eyes rolled at the turtle in red. "Leo trusted me to tell what he feels, especially about a rude brother. I expect that you would trust me also,"
Raph breathed out. There's nothing I can do. "Fine. But I'll go with you," The red masked turtle stepped forward.
"No. You must not," Karai stepped back and held a grip to her tanto at her back.
"My brother's safety is in there and it's my responsibility to bring him back!" Raphael clenched his left fist and then raised his right hand.
The kunoichi unsheathed her tanto blade from her back and then pointed it to Raph. "If you go there, you are also risking Leo's life at the same time! You're not the only one who cares a lot for Leo but I also do! So back off Raphael!" Her amber eyes flashed with anger and her raven hair swayed with the wind.
Raphael gritted his teeth once more and crumpled both of his fists.
Karai placed down her weapon and sheathed it to her back. She then stepped back and went away, jumping from rooftop to rooftop.
"Karai is right, Raph. She also has a point. We'll just wait," Donnie went beside his older brother and tapped his shoulder.
So it was proven. Karai cares a lot for Leo. That's it. Game over. "Awesome!" April said, making everyone turn to her.
"What's so awesome, April?" Mikey raised a brow.
"Karai is really concerned for Leo?! Oohh!" The red haired teen smiled and chuckled.
The orange banded turtle turned back and whispered. "Leo scored a lot to Karai unlike Donnie to April," Mikey used his hands to cover his mouth while giggling then closed his eyes within 2 seconds. He then rolled his eyes to Donnie to see if ever he heard it.
A meter farther than Mikey, Donnie's ears captured the whisper of his little brother made. You! Pukehead! Donatello turned to Mikey, clenched his fists and narrowed his eyes. "I heard that!" Don gritted his teeth, revealing the geek's gap between his teeth.
Raphael, from the back, stepped forward and smacked Mikey. "Aw!" The shortest turtle rubbed his back and stared sharply at Raph.
Nobody noticed that April heard what Mikey said. She looked at the purple clad turtle and smiled. At least, Donnie's still there.
The amber eyes of the kunoichi rolled around. A sight made her stop. Shredder's van. Something... Or maybe someone's in there. Karai decided to follow the said vehicle, locking her eyes to it.
The vehicle lead the raven haired teen to a familiar structure; the TCRI building of the Kraang. Those slimy aliens? What are they going to do with Shredder?' She placed her metal mask on, covering the half of her face.
Rahzar and Fishface were the ones who exited the van. Fishface opened the back of the vehicle and then he entered. Karai focused to what she sees. When the mutant went out, from his back, the mutant fish was carrying Leo, tied with chains, still not regaining his consciousness.
Leo!' When Karai saw this, she suddenly stood up from where she sat.
Rahzar and Fishface entered TCRI, bringing a number of footbots with them.
The kunoichi regained her focus, and turned again to her mission. Those freaks! They'd pay for what they did!
"I'm just wondering," Fishface started to speak, while he, Rahzar and other footbots were on a lift. He broke the utter silence and tapped his robotic foot on the ground, just to create another sound. Pretending he did not hear, Rahzar just rolled his eyes to Fishface. "Does this turtle eat so much meat?" The mutant growled, carrying the blue banded turtle from his back.
"I don't think so," Rahzar answered his partner's question.
"Then what makes him so heavy?! I think I'm not carrying a teenager. I think I'm carrying an overweight snoring panda," Fishface protested, as he rolled his green mutant eyes to the turtle.
"Keep your voice down! If that turtle wakes up, we'll be churned by Master Shredder's gauntlet! Stop your non sense compliment, just carry that freak 'cause I already know that feeling!" Rahzar responded, his teeth were gritted.
"Tingg!" The mutants reached the floor they must be on. They both saw Shredder talking with a Kraangdroid.
The blue banded turtle started opening his eyes. Carefully, little by little. When he finally regained his senses, he felt cold. Water had been around him. No, I am in water! He panicked, but realized he could breathe inside. Huh?
He saw himself inside a vat of liquid, as clear as water. A tube was placed on his mouth, making him breath under. His azure eyes spotted a roaming Kraangdroid which turned to him and checked the monitor beside the vat.
Well let's see who's there. Kraang and me. Sweet. He looked above and saw no exits. They're now sealing me in here, huh?
A metal clinging was heard. Footsteps were coming nearer to him. He turned left. Metal pants. From his left, he saw Shredder. Both of his non existent eyebrows met at the center.
The villain's sight turned to the turtle in blue. "So now, you're finally awake, kame,"
Leo just narrowed his eyes, and gave his sharpest stare he could ever give.
"Don't worry, Leonardo, right?" Shredder stepped forward while the katana wielding turtle locked onto Shredder as he walked around. "You can speak from there. Tell me, what can you say about where you are right now?"
"I haven't noticed," Leo said, sarcastically. "What do you need to me anyway huh?"
Shredder stopped for a while. " Can you see my friends, the Kraang,"
"I see. They are really cuddly and slimy. Great choice of friends," The azure eyed turtle released a smirk.
Upon hearing this, Shredder laughed, shortly. "You have a great sense of humor huh, Leonardo? Did Hamato Yoshi teach you to be a clown by the shadows?"
"Actually, my sensei has nothing to do with that. I just learned that by kicking your clan's butts," Another smirk was given by the blue clad turtle. I am enjoying this one.
"Oh, really?" Shredder responded.
" Since our conversation has gone too far, why don't you answer my question, Shredder? " Leo swum towards the glass and leaned against it.
"So Hamato Yoshi did not teach you how to respect the elders?" The villain stepped forward, nearer to the vat of liquid.
"He did teach us, but also told us not, on time like this, being caged in a vat of who-knows-what kind of liquid while having a tube sucked in your mouth, without knowing where am I and what am I doing in here," Leo said, crossing his arms around his plastron.
"I just let the knowledge of Kraang study your way of thinking, and on how would I gain control of it," Shredder said.
"As far as I am concerned, this is my mind and I am the only one who could control it," Leonardo raised a brow and gave a skeptical look.
"Ha!...ha! ha! ha! ha!" Shredder laughed which made Leo to be more confused. He's out of his mind.. Only if Sensei could see this..
"What a pathetic animal! How could you be so sure about that huh?! Did your sensei teach you about hypnosis?"
Yeah. Right. Hypnosis. Great. Just. Freaking. Great.'The blue banded turtle rolled his eyes then swum backwards, against the glass wall.
"I'll just leave you there for some more minute," Shredder exited the place.
Now, how will I get out of this aquarium?' Leo looked around, finding any way of escape.
From above the dark ceilings of TCRI, Karai sneaked in, carefully putting her steps on to the metal bars with no heard sounds. Ninja Stealth.
"You're finally awake, kame," A known voice stopped her in her tracks. She placed her ear to the ceiling, finding where the voice exactly was.
"Don't worry, Leonardo, right?" Leonardo? Leo's in there!' She quickly drew her tanto blade and carefully sliced the ceiling, forming a circle, enough for her to peek on.
"...right now" Karai missed some words from Shredder. From right where she was, the Kunoichi could see a container, a big one where she saw Leo. The raven haired teen also saw Shredder talking with the blue banded ninja.
" I haven't noticed."
"What do you need to me anyway huh?" You three toes. Still pathetic. Karai continued to listen between the conversations.
"...really cuddly and slimy. Great choice of friends"Upon hearing this, she barely laughed out loud but managed just to release a silent chuckle.
"...sense of humor, huh Leonardo? Did Hamato Yoshi taught you to be a clown by the shadows?"
She continued to watch the show between her 'father' and Leonardo.
"...ha! ...ha!...ha!" Some words weren't clear because of the sounds of the equipments below. This place sucks!
"...hypnosis?" Wait, what?! Hypnosis? Father will use hypnosis?! To whom?! Why?! When Karai focused again to Shredder, she saw him walking out of the room. Great. Haven't heard the most important details.
Her amber eyes peek on to the circle she had made. No signs of Kraang, footbots or Shredder. Just me, and Leo. She unsheathed her tanto blade and continued to make a bigger hole where she could pass through. There. Perfect.
The kunoichi slid out of the ceiling, entering the hole, and landing swiftly on the floor. She silently went near the vat where Leo was in.
"Who's there?" Splinter taught them to sharpen their senses, including hearing. Leo's azure eyes narrowed and rolled through the place. He was alerted of the soft sound Karai made when she landed. "Hey, fearless leader," Karai walked and went in front of the vat. She placed her hand on her hips and smirked.
"K-Karai?!" Leo swum and leaned on the glass as he saw Karai, with her signature smug look. "Wait. How did you-"
"Shhh," The kunoichi stepped forward, placed her right hand on the glass, concealing the turtle's mouth from her sight. "Quiet. I'll get you out of here," Karai said, whispering, then took a step back. The raven haired teen went to the equipment beside the vat and pressed a button.
The water inside the container drained, and the glass wall went down. Karai rushed to Leo. "Hey there, are you okay?" She helped Leo put away the breathing apparatus.
"Better," The azure orbs and the amber ones locked on to each other. "Thank You," Leo said and using his left hand, he gently swiped Karai's hair away from her face. The blue clad turtle held the kunoichi's waist, tugging her nearer to him. The raven haired teen wrapped both of her hands around Leo's neck and gently leaned on him.
The two ninjas closed both of their eyes, as their heads were going near to each other.
"Well. What do we have here," The teenage ninjas stopped, and then rolled their eyes to where the voice came from. It was from the super mutant, Rahzar, accompanied by Fishface and a dozen of footbots.
"Oh... Did we interrupt?" Fishface stated, giving both of them a smirk.
"Oh! We...Uh.." Leo suddenly let go of Karai. He felt heat burning down his cheeks, making his terrapin skin turn into red. Karai let go also then stared sharply on Rahzar and Fishface. She also blushed a lot, making the two foes laugh.
Fishface was stopped by seeing Leo. The mutant saw the blue banded turtle with a raging anger. Both of his fists were clenched very tight, so were his eyes. The mutant fish used his hand to call Rahzar's attention. "Psst." Rahzar stopped from laughing then turned to Fishface.
"Why?"
"Do you remember what Master Shredder said about the turtle's anger?"
"Yes. Why?"
"J-Just asking" Fishface gulped then pointed at Leo which made Chris turn to the leaf green turtle.
The raven haired teen heard what Fishface said and turned also to Leo. "Leo? It's okay. They are just some mindless freaks who both lack in companions," Karai said worried. "Leo?"
The blue clad turtle opened his eyes. Instead of seeing a clear, compassionate azure eyes, they saw bright red eyes full of rage. He suddenly ran to the two other mutants with an unknown speed, then gave both a kick at the same time, knocking them on the ground.
The leaf green turtle turned to the footbots as he grabbed two and then crushed their heads at the same time using his bare hands. He turned to other bots and did the same thing.
At the corner, Karai's amber eyes narrowed at the sight. She was dead in her tracks as she watched Leo rampaging around.
All of the footbots had been crushed. "How about you?" Leo tilted his head and walked slowly to where Rahzar and Fishface were lying down.
"No. Please. Go away!" The two mutants said at the same time. Leonardo grabbed them both by the neck and pinned them against the wall. "After all you've done to ME and MY BROTHERS?! NEVER!" He continued to squeeze the mutant's both necks, as they tried to inhale oxygen.
At the back, Karai was still dumbfounded. She heard someone had been watching. When she looked back, she saw Shredder, witnessing everything. "Father?!" She hissed.
Shredder walked towards Karai and grabbed her, holding both arms as he placed a short knife near the kunoichi's neck. "Father! What are you doing!"
"Don't worry, Karai. This won't hurt. I just need to catch that turtle," Shredder's cold voice replied.
From the other side, Leo heard Karai's yell. He turned to it and saw what was going on. This made him lose the grip from the two mutants. His eyes turned to normal again.
"Follow my instructions or else I'll slice her neck!" What?! Father, why are you doing this?!'
"Father! You can't do this to me!"
"I can, Karai. It is for our revenge against the Hamatos don't you remember, my daughter?" The blade of the knife was getting nearer to her neck.
"Tell me what to do," Leo's trembling voice said.
"You'll come again with me," Shredder replied. The blue clad turtle did not respond. "You think I can't do this to my daughter?!" Shredder pierced a little skin from Karai's neck, making a small amount of crimson blood to flow down. The raven haired teen rolled her eyes down, and felt the cut.
The turtle's eyes shrank. "Fine! I'll go with you! Just let go of her!"
"So we have a deal. Xever! Bradford! Get up!" Fishface and Rahzar stood up and walked to the direction of Karai and Shredder.
"Go home now, Karai. Your mission here is now over. Don't ever try to go against my will again, understood?" The villain whispered on Karai's ear and let go of her.
"Yes, father," The raven haired teen bowed down and closed her eyes. "I have recruited a new member of our clan. He's stronger than Tiger Claw and would more likely to finish Hamato Yoshi's disciples once and for all,"
Rahzar and Fishface grabbed Karai. "What will you do to Leonardo?" The amber eyes of the kunoichi rolled to her 'father'.
"Nothing. A few tests, maybe?" Shredder went to the place where the blue masked turtle was standing. "Follow me."
Leo did what Shredder said. I don't want you to be hurt, Karai. It will rather be me cause I-... Following the villain's footsteps, he bowed down and clenched his fists.
The amber orbs and the azure ones stared at each other for the last time, both shimmering with worries.
D'Arvit. I just used "glare".. Instead of the freaking word, "stare." Back from the last time. D'Arvit... So embarrassing.
A/N: Leo was captured... Again.. What do you think? Sorry, I'm not good at 'those' scenes. You know what I mean.
-I've recently watched the TMNT 2014 Movie! And it was so freaking AWESOME!
"Let's go play Buck-Buck"- Leo 2014
