A/N- My computer deleted the original chapter 2 so instead I decided to make this chapter two. So to keep it short for those who have never seen the 2003 series the turtles go topside and encounter a fight with the purple dragons and then the foot ninja. They escape in an armoured van and are reunited with Master Splinter who takes them to their new lair.
Cat's POV
My family adapted well to life in the new lair. It didn't take us long to clean the place up and make it liveable. We had already collected the necessities that we needed from the old lair. The kitchen was fully fitted and each bedroom had the owner's bed. There was only a few things left to retrieve which Leo and Raph were currently doing.
While I was waiting on them I had spent my time doing Katas. The exercise was not only about balance and flowing movements but also concentration and focus. With Mikey wandering around setting up dozens of TVs causing distractions every 5 seconds I was defiantly working that aspect today. I was being to wonder where he got all those TV's from. It certainly wasn't the old lair.
I was vaguely aware of my brothers having a discussion about what to call the new lair.
"Turtle cave? The Shell-ter?"
"The sewer of solitude?"
"Terrapin Station?"
"The school for gifted reptiles?"
"The hall of ninju-stice?"
All their suggestions made me wince. It was a good thing that these two would never be fathers. I couldn't imagine all the terrible names he would come up with. Luckily Master Splinter came up with a sensible answer.
"My sons, we will call this place home"
"Catchy!" Mikey said his ever bright personality shinning through.
"It's better than what you two came up with" I replied earning a brief glare from both turtles.
"What is keeping Leonardo and Raphael?" Master Splinter questioned.
"They went to collect the last of the stuff from the old lair"
"And with the way the new sewer slider is performing they should be back any minute now" Donnie continued on from what Mikey had said. He had just got the words out of his mouth when the robot leg he was working on began to spark.
"Why I am I suddenly nervous?" I asked earning a glare from Donnie. We both turned towards the entrance when we felt the rumble of the Sewer Slider's return. As Raph set the vehicle down Donatello gave me a smug grin as if to say doubt my abilities will you.
"Good news Mikey, you're DVD collection survived" Leo announced as he jumped down with the box in his hands. He tossed it over to Mikey who caught it with ease. Naturally Mikey wanted to put on a horror movie straight away.
"Awesome, lets throw in something light on story and heavy on gory" Using the remote the turned on the TVs which happened to been the news channel. He went to change it but Donnie stopped him.
"Wait, I want to see this"
The news anchor was talking about some scientist named Dr Baxter Stockman who was unveiling his new invention. We all gasped in shock and surprise when the curtain was lifted. There on screen was one of the annoying metal robots, apparently called Mousers, who destroyed our old lair. We all watched in horror as it was released into a maze filled with half a dozen rats and ate them all one by one.
"Man, I'd sure hate to be a rat in this town" Mikey said instantly regretting his words, "Sorry Sensei"
"I need to sit down" I muttered and plonked myself down on the couch. I could already feel my face going pale.
Immediately Leo placed a hand on my forehead checking my temperature. Donnie and I may be the medics of the family but Leo is the mother hen.
"You're as white as a ghost Cat"
"No she is as green as us" Raph chuckled. I rolled my eyes at my brothers laughing at my expense.
"Let us return to our training" Master Splinter regaining control of the boys, "Come join us when you feel better Caterina"
Nodding my head I closed my eyes and sunk back in the sofa. I must have fallen asleep because next think I know I am been shook awake by Donnie.
"Cat wake up! I got one working!"
Donnie, Mikey and I started chasing the Mouser out of the lair and into the sewer tunnel. It wasn't long before we spotted Leo and Raph who had obviously gotten into another fight.
"You guys have 10 seconds to catch up before I come and beat both of your arses!" I threatened as we passed them. They caught up fairly quickly keeping pase with me one at either side. The 5 of us continued to follow the mouser to an open section of the sewer. One wrong move and we would plummet to our deaths.
The little robot continued along the pipe until it reached the end. Instead of stopping like we thought it would the little bugger started climbing up the wall.
"Resourceful little critter" Donatello said.
"So what do we do now?" Raph asked as if the answer wasn't obvious already.
"As Master Splinter always says, a ninja is always prepared" Leo pulled out his set of Shuko spikes and the rest of us followed in suit.
I already knew that would be Leo's answer but part of me just wanted to give up and go home. Then again, I could never abandon my brothers.
"I thought that was the boy scouts?" Mikey asked so smacked him across the head.
"Ow, it was just a joke Cat" he pouted.
"I'll show you a joke if you don't start climbing" I threatened and he took the hint. He started climbing up the wall alongside Donnie. I was in the middle with Leo and Raph below me.
"Next time lets leave the wall climbing to the guy in the blue and red tights" Sadly I wasn't within reach to smack Mikey this time.
"Mikey if you don't stop I'll throw you off this wall and make you climb up all the way from the bottom again!" This time he took me very seriously knowing fine well that after I make a threat twice I will defiantly carry it out the third time.
Eventually we made it to an ope pipe and crawled in one by one. Once everyone was there we began running after the home wrecker once again.
"Just curious Don, what's to stop old turbo jaws from munching up another 6.2 on the Richter scale?"
I had to admit, I was curious about this also but Mikey beat me to the question.
"I shut down it's jaw servers, it couldn't even chew through a stick of gum!"
As if to prove him wrong the little bugger began eating through the pipes standing in it's way.
"You were saying?"
"But I'm sure I shut it down"
"Aw poor Don's lost his techno mojo, sad really" Mikey teased and once again I smacked him over the head.
"Ow Cat, what's with all the hitting today?"
"One, you are being annoying" I replied counting with my fingers, "And two, I'd like to see you do half the things that Donnie can do!"
Donnie gave me a brief smile before something else caught his attention.
"Uh oh!"
"What do you mean uh oh?" I asked starting to freak out slightly.
"If I'm not mistaken that is a serious water main hanging above our heads and our little mouser friends just ate through the pipes support!"
Leo grabbed me around my waist just in time before the pipe burst. The massive wave of water washing back down the tunnel and over the edge again. As we were falling Donnie pulled out his Bo staff over a small pipe and grabbed a hold of the other end so that he was hanging from it. Leo grabbed a hold of Donnie's ankles while I had my arms wrapped around his neck so that I wouldn't fall. Raph followed in suit grabbing on to Leo's feet when Mikey grabbed his.
"Ow, watch where you are pointing those Shuko spikes Mike!"
"Keep your shell on Raph, I got an idea"
"Mikey, wait!" Leo shouted but he was already swinging. Eventually the momentum was too much for Donnie and he let go. Luckily the angle of release sent us straight towards the wall.
"Guys you okay?" Donnie asked once we were all attached the the wall once again.
"Peachy" replied Raph.
"Next time you go to pull a stunt like that Mikey, don't!" I shouted.
Eventually after a lot of climbing and running we caught up to our little friend again. He had reached the subway now and was wandering on the other side. Raph went to chase after him but Leo pulled him back just seconds before a train flew by.
"Whoa robo-Houdini!" Mikey said.
"Wrong, robo-hitchhiker" Leo replied pointing to the robot that was now attached onto the train that had just gone by.
"We'll never catch him now" Mikey said defeated.
"Two can play at that game" Raph replied before jumping on to another passing train.
"Ok I am not doing that!" I stated but as usual my brothers did not listen. Once again Leo grabbed me around my waist before jumping on to the train. Now that I think about it he has been grabbing a hold of me quite a lot recently.
After what left like hours our little friend let go of train and so we all jumped off as well. When we landed I didn't catch my balance straight away and I tripped over. Luckily Leo's hands were still on my hips and he pulled me back up.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Next time I say that I am not doing something, listen to me!"
Leo chuckled but didn't let go. We continued to follow the robot's path of destruction. The only problem was that now there were multiple robots wandering around.
"Who invited them?" Mikey asked gesturing towards the second robot.
"I got it" Raph said as he pulled a star out of his belt and threw it at the robot. The only problem was that it had no effect on it.
"This is not good guys" Leo said stating the obvious.
"Neither is that, these chromosomes are a lot tougher than the last batch" Donnie said.
" Yeah and there is a lot more of them too" Raph continued and he was right because we were surrounded.
As already stated these robots were a lot harder to kill than the last lot. Leo and Raph were going okay with their blades but Donnie, Mikey and I were struggling.
"Guys the only way to stop them is to slice their heads off" Leo said.
"Well isn't that great news for the turtles with the blades" Mikey complained.
"Drive them this way, we'll slice and dice" Raph suggested and I kinda like the idea.
Two of the little buggers were chomping on the ends of of my bow. I swung it towards Leo and with one fluent motion he had sliced both their heads off.
With this strategy it was a lot easier to take them down. Donnie asked us to keep one fully intact but he wasn't quick enough as Raph was already destroying the last robot.
"So much for tracing them back to their source" Leo muttered.
I went to reply when a woman's scream filled the tunnels.
"Stay here!" I shouted to my brothers and charged off in the direction of the scream. Why I expected them to listen I'll never know.
When I located the woman my brothers had caught up and started destroying the robots that were surrounding her.
While the woman said her thank yous Mikey made the mistake of stepping out from the shadows. Instantly she fainted.
Mikey lifted the woman into his arms and turned to face us.
"So can we keep her?"
