Please note, we literally wrote ourway out of the season, and so we had to resort on writing by the seat of our pants. The rest of the chapters is our version of what may of happened, enjoy. :)
--------------------
Leo mumbled in his sleep as he heard a noise at the room's door. He yawned opening his eyes sleepily looking up seeing a wooden man standing there.
He sighed as the man beckoned at him, same morning routine as yesterday apparently. He leaned down and kissed Raph's cheek, before carefully climbing out of bed, and getting his gear before following the man.
The man led him down the hallway pass the secret door way to a long stairway instead of letting Leo walk down it the man lifted leo in his arms surprising the turtle as he walked down the flights.
Leo erked, and struggled a bit in the grip before he settled down. As the wooden man got down on the last step he put Leo down leading him to a large marble room Kaiya stood in the middle of the room waiting for him. Leo looked around, this must of been the room the others mentioned finding. "Morning Kaiya." He said, stifling a yawn.
"Morning Leonardo, sorry for waking you so early but I want you to practice a little of your spells before the real training starts" She said. He nodded giving a stretch.
"Thanks, I think I'll need it." He said.
"You will, the other members really want to test you all out," She said. He sighed.
"Great." He said. "And I've had no physical training unlike the others."
"Thanks to my threats of setting them on fire I will be your protector, they started to believe me after I made a tiger out of fire come at them." She said. His eyes widened at that.
"Whoa." He said impressed.
"You'll learn it in do time with your powers so far you can probably make a lion cub or a bird a few sized bigger than a canary." She said lightly.
He grinned. "So, how shall we practice this?" He asked.
She nodded "You might need it today." She said as she conjured up a tiger at her side. He looked impressed, and tried conjuring an animal other then a bird. A small lion cub appeared at his side purring as it snuggled his legs. He smiled lightly.
"Good he's at a decent size close your eyes and think of a older lion." He closed his eyes and thought of an older lion. The lion grew in size hitting the age of a teenaged lion growling as it protected its master from the full grown tiger Leo opened his eyes as he heard the tiger growl back at the lion. Kaiya smiled as the lion and tiger stared each other down not willing to share their owners. Leo chuckled lightly, and reached out to touch the lion's head.
The lion purred as Leo's hand stroked it; the lion nuzzled his owner's hand back.
"I see what you mean by possessive." He chuckled to Kaiya. She smiled at him.
"Be lucky you have more tame ones then I did mine attacked my husband during a mood swing, but all elements eventually get used to other people near you they some times sense you emotions toward the person and will react the same way you do." said Kaiya petting her tiger
"I hope so, I hate for them to take after my brothers." He said. "Eh Heh, I'm kinda glad I'm passed the mood swings."
"Good I'd rather not see your fire animals go at your lover because you're peeved at him." Said Kaiya "Now for the battle its required that you wear one of our robes with helmet included, so I suggest after you get in a little practice you try practicing in the robe." He blinked.
"Everybody's going to wear robes?" He asked, and looked to lion as it lay down.
"No just you, I can't explain other wise I'll ruin the surprise." said Kaiya her arms crossed over her chest unhappy she couldn't tell her friend. He raised an eyeridge.
"Ooook, I feel so special." He rolled his eyes. "Great, I'm sounding like Raph now."
Kaiya chuckled. "well I guess he's rubbing off on you, I am sorry about the robe I tried to not let this happen but they used there trump card on me." She said.
He sighed. "Sometimes I wonder about your...fellow people." He said, not asking what the trump card was, not sure he wanted to know. "Well, I suppose we should get to practicing..."
"They aren't what you'd call social people I've never seen them without their robes." She said. "Right lets get ready, I'd rather you be prepared." she continued petting her tiger.
He nodded. "I noticed, they're a lot...colder then you too." He said.
"I think one of them is a sprit, possessing some one's body, because I have seen him go through walls every once and awhile." She said. "He's one of the physical teachers, he usually rags on your brother Michel"
Leo smiled. "Speaking of Mikey, so he cal fly now huh?" He asked. "Oh boy, wait till his super hero friends hear that."
"He can only fly a little bit, you'll have to help him some on landings and going up, even though air isn't you strongest element you can fly also," said Kaiya
"What is my strongest?" He asked, he had his suspicions, but wanted it confirmed. "Yours seems to be fire."
"Yours is quite jumbled but right now water and ice are the dominate ones for you, there's also some light magic mixed in there." She said.
He hmmed and nodded. "Water kind of makes sense, I am a turtle after all." He said, briefly wondering what his mate's would be, then again he wouldn't be surprised it was fire; he hoped it wouldn't be dark though.
---------
Raph grumbled lightly as a knock came at his door waking him, he glared at the door way then looked to where his mate was not seeing him again. He grumbled.
"Great, he's gone, if they've done anything." He really hated this waking up with his mate gone. "Alright, I'm up! Knock off the racket!" Raph got out of bed pulling on his gear before he walked to the door opening it seeing a wooden man waiting for him. He glared up at it.
"If anything's been done to Leo..." He threatened as he crossed his arms. The wooden man nodded knowing what the red masked turtle meant, he used his hands motioning forward wanting the turtle to follow. Raph sighed, and relaxed his arms slightly and looked around.
"Anyone else up?" He asked as he followed. The wooden man gave another nod holding up 6 fingers showing who was up; he walked forward expecting Raph to follow. Raph nodded and followed after him.
They walked down the long stair case until raph saw that marble room for yesterday the tribunal members stood waiting for the last three people awake to come down the stairs.
Leo sat on the floor in light meditation, though he sported a robe similar to the tribunals, minus the helmet, he seemed to be in light meditation, perhaps getting his mind ready for what's coming. Another surprising thing might be the fiery lion cub settled next to him, batting at a bit of the robe in a bored manner.
The lion grew bored before leaping at its own sitting in his lap mewling for love not setting his robe on fire, Raph just looked at the scene amazed that his mate was able to conjure the cub.
"Graduated from birds huh Leo?" Raph chuckled and moved over to the others already there. Leo chuckled and opened his eyes, petting the cub that nuzzled into him; you'd almost think it was a house cat instead of a lion.
Adam and joy walked down the stairs both looking less then thrilled about being awake.
"Nice to see the rest of you decided to join us." One of the tribunal said.
"Not all of us are prone to mornings as you are Jiro" said Kaiya her arms crossed over her chest.
"Hey! What's up with Leo's new get up?" Raph asked.
Kaiya pulled off her helmet looking peeved
"After I tell you promise me that you'll beat Jiro and Haru they thought this would be amusing." Spat Kaiya "They want you to fight against Leonardo and his magic."
"What!" Leo and Raph yelled nearly at the same time.
"Don't look at me like I wanted this, I tried to convince them, but I couldn't get far I thought you dimwits would learn after my trails here" She snapped rounding off at Jiro. Leo got up, after moving the cub.
"You can forget it then, I'm not going to fight my own brothers and friends." He said, and moved to remove the robe.
Haru held out his hand blocking Leo's movement with his magic
"Sorry turtle but we need to test all of your skills against normal fighters." He said. Kaiya glared dangerously at Haru.
"You're nuts." Raph growled.
"I will not save you from another angry husband, you may deal with Raphael on your own," Snapped Kaiya. She snapped her fingers lifting the magic lock protecting the members. "There you go now you have no magical protection."
"Now we're talking!" Raph said and drew his sais.
"Enjoy Raphael, I control all magic in the castle so you now have a free run on them" said.
Kaiya stepped back. "Lets see if he hurts you as badly as Todd wanted to." she continued. Leo took the robe off. Raph charged at Jiro with a growl.
Jiro barely dodged raph's attacks as the turtle came at him full force, without his magic he was useless on offense. Raph knocked him out cold, and then hrred as he looked at the other two tribunal.
Haru shot a look at Kaiya before pulling out his ice tonfa's ready to fight the turtle. Leo brought up his own shields as the cub turned into a teenaged lion.
Haru charged at raph faking him out and throwing a strong ice spell at Leo, raph growled not happy about that his temper raising a fire spell building in his chest without knowing it. He charged at Haru kicking out at him. Leo tried to block the attack, but his powers weren't as strong.
He winced as he felt a bit of backlash; raph was able to knock Haru over grabbing him by the collar holding him up Leo fell back on his shell, the lion running over to help him back up.
"Should we help?" Mikey asked the others.
"What do you want to do? I personally would like to watch Raphael beat the tar out of Haru" Commented Kaiya "besides his fire magic is activating as I speak."
"You know, she's got a point." Joy said.
"Wait, fire, what?" Mikey asked.
"He has large amounts of fire magic, right now he's facing an ice mage he is going to win." Said Kaiya
"I have to agree with you on that" said the other tribunal member walking up next to Kaiya. "I don't know if I should laugh or not." He said.
Leo got to his feet and looked to Kaiya and the others. Raph could feel the heat growing in him.
"Come over here Leonardo, I don't think you'll like how an angry fire mage effects your magic." Said Kaiya, Raph had fire appear around all his anger surfacing.
Leo nodded and moved over to the others and turned to watch. Haru blinked and backed up. Raph growled, and launched his fire at Haru. Haru yelped as the fire attacked him his ice failing at fending it off his hands getting burned, he threw ice at raph only making his fire stronger.
Leo grinned and cheered along with Mikey, Don and the others.
"Well Haru did say there was going to be a battle today." Said the other member amusement in his voice; Raph's magic took shape of a large bird going at Haru.
"You almost make it sound like this was part of the plan." Leo said. Haru tried to block the bird with ice. "Anybody else see the irony in Raph's being fire?" Mikey remarked and owed as he got a smack from his mate.
"No its not planned, Haru wanted you and your mate to face off, he enjoys others pain,
"Last time he was saved by young miss Kaiya she stopped her husband Todd from killing Haru." Said the member. "Even though I would have enjoyed seeing Todd have a whack at Haru."
Leo cringed. "I could never fight Raph, I mean we've had our arguments, heck our whole relationship started off on a bad foot, but..."
"Its alright, no one wants to fight there loved ones, I barely remember what its like but its still there." said the member. Raph knocked Haru over his firebirds looming over the man each squawking angrily pecking at him
Leo turned to watch Raph, willing him to calm down; it was obvious that the man had had enough.
"Raph, calm down, he's down..." Raph backed off after a moment his powers going down as he headed back to the group his fire birds growing smaller his temper going down bit by bit. Leo's lion growled slightly as Raph approached, but Leo quieted it.
Raph's birds chirped eyeing Leo before flying near him to investigate him to see if he was trustworthy. Leo offered his hand friendlily to them in invitation. The lion turned to eye Raph, and shrunk back to a up before cautiously approaching.
The lion sniffed raph before rubbing his legs, liking the other turtle smelling his owner scent mingled with this turtle. Raph crouched down and petted the cub. The birds circled Leo for a moment before landing on his arm, and nuzzling his hand.
"Looks like the elements recinogize how important you are too each other, it usually takes longer for the elements to accept others" said Kaiya impressed
"Maybe we're just special." Raph chuckled, and acked as he got pounced playfully by the cub.
"So...what's this mean for our training?" Donny asked.
"Hey! What's Don's element? And Joy, Adams, Faranchi and Torra's?" Asked Mikey.
Kaiya smiled. "Well Donatello's element is earth, Joy's is fire and air, Adams is earth and water, Faranchi is also earth a little of ice included and Torra's is ice and fire" She answered feeling there elements. The others murmured softly.
"So...what's this mean for our training?" Leo asked Kaiya and the other.
"Your training will continue, i can guess these two have learned their lesson, so things will go back to the schedule from before, now since that's settled you all go have what you call free time." Said the other member. Leo watched the birds take off and fly to their owner.
"You may practice your magic if you are curious, just be careful not to wear yourself out." Kaiya said. Leo nodded to Kaiya, his lion walking back to him purring as it wrapped itself around his leg,
"The blue turtle will continue to train seperately from you." The other member said.
"Aww but we have magic too." Grumbled Mikey wanting to train in magic.
"Your magic is still not your strong point as it is with your brother."
"Okay" He said nodding to her.
"Hey donny you want to explore this place some more?" He asked his mate his intentions not all inoccent for their exploration.
"Well, I dunno, I mean we already saw..." Don paused at a nudge from his mate. "Well, okay." He chuckled. They walked out of the room holding hands mikey smiling at his mate a mischievously, Leo smiled lightly at their departure.
Don leaned in to kiss his mates head when they were out of view. Raph stood up.
"So, what shall the rest of us do?" He asked.
"Anything we want I guess" said joy shrugging
"There's a library here right?" She asked feeling like reading.
"Yes there is, it's up on the second floor, I can have our guards show you to it." The member said. Joy smiled at the member
"Thanks" she said as a wooden man walked in the room ready to help her. Joy moved over to the wooden man to follow him.
"I guess I'll practice with you guys if you want to that is." Said Adam looking at Faranchi and Torra. Faranchi and Torra nodded. Leo smiled.
"So Leo want do you want to do?" Asked Raph his temper now cooled his fire birds, perched on his shoulders, nuzzled him.
"Ummm, I dunno really." Leo responded, and considered his options.
"We can practice some more magic if you want" Offered Raph. Leo chuckled. "Probably a good idea for a while." He said, and looked to the other three men. "If you don't mind us joining you."
"Of course not" said faranchi a smile on his lips.
"Its very interesting to see magic in the first place seeing you two making fire animals is astounding." Leo chuckled.
"You just have to focus and picture the animal. Kaiya can do a tiger." He remarked. "But you can also make weapons out of ice."
