Three weeks later.

Leo awoke shifting slightly and then tensing, he stayed still for a good five minutes hoping he hadn't woke her but of course he had. Venus looked up at him and smiled at him laying her head back onto his plastron.

"Morning Venus" Leo whispered gently stroking his girlfriends head.

"Morning Leo" she said yawning looking up at him. She sat up and stretched, swinging her legs over the side of their bed. Leo watched as Venus went over to the wash basin and splashed her face, quickly brushing her teeth and putting her hair up in a pony tail before strapping her gear on. Venus turned to look at Leo who was just tying his mask, she smiled softly and walked over to him looking up into his eyes she smiled softly at him and then walking hand in hand down to begin training as they did every morning. The two slipped downstairs silently, switching on all the lights in the lair and then making their way to the dojo.

They quickly warmed up and practiced a few katas before they bowed to each other and sparred for a good hour. They were both sweating Venus smiled at Leo and bowed to him Leo returned the gesture and they walked into the kitchen to have some breakfast. Leo looked at the clock, it read 10:30 (remember that the guys sleep during the daytime).

"They'll be waking soon" Venus said sipping her tea

"They better practice starts at 11:00" Leo replied taking a large gulp of tea Venus nodded

"My sisters should be up soon" just on queue Belladonna walked into the kitchen

"Morning all" she said yawning she put the kettle on and grabbed two cups from the cupboard; one for Donnie one for her

"Training starts at 11:00 Bella so don't be long," Venus reminded her. Belladonna nodded and walked out of the room with the coffees in her hands. Venus rolls her eyes and Leo chuckles at her expression. They both walked into the other room where Emily and Mickey were playing a video game. Emily had stuck her tongue out slightly in concentration. Venus and Leo sat on the couch and watched with amused expressions as Emily came in first, she jumped up

"Oh yeah" she said triumphantly punching the air "you just got your shell handed to you by a girl." Mickey laughed

"Out of three?" he challenged

"Oh you are soo on Mickey" Emily said cracking her knuckles and grabbing the controller and getting ready for round two. After a few minutes of 'hardcore gaming' Venus cleared her throat making both young turtles jump

"Jeez sis' give a girl a heart attack why don't ya" Emily whined hands over her heart. Venus raised an eye-ridge

"You 'sis' need to work on your sensing ability I could have been an enemy" she lectured while Leo and Mickey watched from the sidelines

After training Venus and Leo agreed that a patrol would be a good idea since Mickey and Emily were practically bouncing off the walls and annoying Violet in particular who usually set things on fire when she lost her temper, (which was often.)

"Guys" Leo called out "we are going on patrol now" Donnie and Bella made their way out of his lab reluctantly, Violet and Raph walked out of the dojo and Emily and Mickey ran out of the living room.

"Yes finally!" Emily cried hi-threeing Mickey.

"Not you" Venus said shortly

"What! Why" Emily moaned

"Because you can't fight" Violet mocked

"I can so fight you guys have been teaching me" Emily pouted. Venus looked strained

"No means no Emily go and do some more practice" Venus said. Her sister turned on her heel and strode out of the room, Venus watched with sad eyes as her baby sister left the room. After they got onto the roof Venus had suggested they head north and they did.

"Where are the foot when you need them" Violet spat swinging her scythe dangerously

"right here freaks" came a voice from behind them. 50 foot ninjas faced them and Violets smirked gripping her other scythe

"You just asked for a world of pain" she snarled and lunged for the foot, within minutes they were swallowed by a wave of foot. Venus swung her blade at a nearby ninja knocking him out almost instantly. And that's when everyone heard it a familiar scream filling the night air. A wave of water smashed into a small group of foot knocking them off the side of the roof. Venus felt the colour drain from her face.

"EMILY" she screamed. Her little sister was huddled in a corner her eyes glowing orange, all the ninjas around her were being catapulted off the edge of the building. Venus ran close to her a felt herself begin to fall.

Leonardo ran to the side of the roof jumping and catching his girlfriend bridal style.

"Leo" she screamed over the noise "she can't see me all she can sense is fear and anger it's too much for her to handle" Leo looked over at the scared young mutant. The foot had now turned their attention to Emily. Soon no foot were left on the roof.

"Em its okay" Bella whispered she was a safe distance away but Emily heard her

"B-Bella?" Emily asked

"Yep it's me and Donnie and Raph and Vi and Ve and Leo and Mickey just calm down its okay now" Everyone followed her lead and eventually she lowered her forcefeild. Mike was the first to her, she clutched to him burring her face in the crook of his neck. Mike pulled her close to him making shushing sounds and stroking her hair. She took a few deep breaths,

"V-Venus I-I'm s-so sorry, I just c-couldn't b-be on m-my own" she stuttered. Mickey looked up at Venus; she had a look of concern in her eyes

"Emily why did you follow us?" Belladonna asked laying her hand on her sisters'. Emily looked up at her immediate older sister guilt washing over her,

"I j-just needed t-to s-see what it l-looked like." She whispered

"But you haven't ever followed us before, why now?" Belladonna persisted. Emily looked down and began to tremble again.

"I d-don't know I can sense something was going to go horribly wrong, resulting in me losing someone close to me." Everyone looked at her. They all knew she possessed psychic powers, if she sensed something bad was going to happen it was. Venus looked around making eye contact with Leo. The two seemed to agree on something and Leo looked up.

"Let's get to the nearest man-hole cover, now" Leo commanded, everyone agreed and ran to the nearest alleyway. Mickey carried Emily down and lowered down into the safety of the sewers the others right behind. Once they entered the lair Violets spun on Emily her anger finally spilling out.

"Are you completely crazy" she screamed right in her little sisters' face "you could have been hurt or died or got one of us hurt trying to defend your sorry butt!" Venus stepped in-between her sisters.

"Back off Vi, go and blow off some steam" Venus looked straight into her cold red eyes.

"Move Vee or I'm gunna have to pulverise you too" Violet hissed

"Violet go and cool off now" Venus repeated in a calm voice. Violet balled her fists her hair catching fire,

"VIOLET!" Venus shouted, Violet pushed her sister away from her. When Violets hands made contact with her sisters skin a horrible sizzling sound could be heard. Emily and Mickey winced, Bella gasped and Leo Raph and Donnie could only stare at the fourth-degree burns shaped like Violets hands. Violet stormed out of the lair and Raph followed her. Bella rushed forward and caught her sister before she hit the floor. Leonardo was at her side in a flash, she was biting her lip hard trying to keep the tears in her eyes from flowing.

"Emily go get my medical kit now!" Bella shouted

"Mickey go get some ice packs from the fridge" Donnie commanded both young turtles rushed off and did what they were told.

What felt like hours later Venus was patched up, she had let a few tears slide when they had to put disinfectant on the burn, but everyone pretended not to notice. Leo had held her hand throughout the whole ordeal. He could tell something was bothering her, and it wasn't her burn.

"What's wrong?" he asked squeezing her hand gently. She looked up at him,

"Luckily it was me that got burned and not Bella or Em, but it could have easily been them. I angered her to the point where she would unintentionally burn into muscle. It would have been my fault if either of them would have gotten hurt." Venus said quietly laying her head on his shoulder. Leo looked down at her, he sighed and shifted making room for her on his lap, he pulled her on gently and stroked her head soothingly. He felt her relax in his hold slowly letting go of the guilt that had hold of her, soon her sighs of content changed into deep breaths. She had fallen asleep; Leo carried her up to her room and tucked her up in their bed.

"Goodnight Venus" he whispered kissing her on the forehead gently and leaving the room.
