Chapter 7

In the turtle's lair

Over the next few days Leonardo and Electra kept their distance from each other since they both wanted time to sort out what they were feeling. Luckily for them Leo's brothers were not aware of what was going on between them, however, each of them was starting to grow affection towards Electra themselves and would constantly try to get her to notice them.

"I'm telling you, she totally digs me!" Mikey told his brothers.

"In your dreams shell for brains, she totally thinks I'm the most handsome" Raph came back.

"Guys, I hope you know that most women per a man that has high intelligence, that being said, she is more attracted to me!" Donny added.

"What are you guys fighting about?" Leo asked as he walked into the living room where his younger siblings were argueing.

"Leo, dude, I'm glad your here! Tell these guys that Electra likes me!" Mikey said point to himself. Leo didn't want to deal with this right now and it was disheating to know that his brothers also had feeling for Electra.

"Why don't you guys just ask her who she likes and be done with it" Leo told his younger brothers. Each of them looked at each other and they all shrugged. Leo just sighed and started to walk away when Raph stopped him.

"So fearless leader, how do you feel about her?" Raph asked.

"It's none of your business, If she likes anyone of us she will let you know, until then just let it go" Leonardo hissed. He looked at each of his brothers then sighed and walked up the stairs to his room and shut the door.

Electra was in dojo but could hear every word that was being said. I need to leave before I cause a rift between them Electra thought to herself. She went through some more katas and felt that she was back at top form when she heard someone walk into the dojo behind her. Electra turned around and was not surprised to find Leo standing against the wall.

"So, how much of my brother's quarrel did you hear?" Leo asked pushing himself off the wall and walking towards her.

"Not much, just from she thinks I'm the cutest till the end" Electra said smirking. She couldn't help but find it a little funny that each of them had a crush on her, it was not everyday that she was the center of attention.

"So, what are you doing in here at this hour?" Electra asked, walking up to him.

"Couldn't sleep, I just thought I would come in here and get some practice in" Leo told her as he walked over to the practice weapons rack and grabbed a practice sword and walked back to where she was standing..

"Up for some sparing?" Leonardo asked her.

"Is that a challenge?" Electra asked him back.

"More of an invitation" Leonardo replied, standing straight in front of her.

Electra cocked and eyebrow and quickly struck at him with her sai. Leonardo side stepped the strike and struck at her side with the sword but she was to quick and did a no handed cartwheel to put some space between them. The two combatants circled each other until Leonardo came at her and slashed his sword at her, Electra dodged the attack and struck him with a kick to his side making him off balance and then sweeped his legs from under him. As Electra tried to pin him to the ground Leonardo grabbed her by the arm and slung her over him making her land on her back. He quickly got back to his feet in time to turn and see Electra get back to hers and make a quick strike at his midsection only to see him flip over her and land behind her before sending a kick to her back. Electra fell face first on the floor and before she could recover she felt the sword at the back of her neck.

"Looks like I win again" Leo said smiling.

"I have to work on a few things I guess" Electra said, accepting the hand that was offered to her. When she got back to her feet she couldn't help but notice how close they were to each other. She didn't know why she did it but before she could stop herself she leaned into him and kissed him on the lips. Leo was surprised but it didn't take long for the shock to wear off and he deepen the kiss. It only lasted for a few seconds before they parted.

"I need to go, I have to think about this" Electra said walking out of the dojo and into her temporary room.

As Leo watched her go he couldn't help but think that he was falling in love with her. He decided to go through a few more katas and then he would have a long talk with her and finally set the record straight.

Foot Headquarters

"Enter" Saki commanded.

The Elite Guard walked into the room and bowed to their master. "Everything has been set into motion master" One of the Elites told Saki.

"Good, now prepare, tomorrow night we put our plan into action" Saki said.

The Elite Guard bowed then left Saki alone in his dojo.

"I am going to enjoy watching those freaks beg for their lives before I kill them one by one" Saki said to himself as he walked over to where he kept his battle armour and took out a sword and began practicing.

Back In the Lair

.

Electra sat on her bed thinking about what she should do. On one hand she thought she should leave to keep the peace, she didn't know how the others would take it when they found out that she liked Leonardo. On the other hand she didn't want to leave without give Leo an explanation, that would have been cowardly and she was no coward. She also knew the other reason she didn't want to leave, She had fallen for Leo and it would break her heart to leave, even if it was for the better good. She just didn't know what to do. While sitting there she heard her door open and saw Leo standing there looking at her.

"Can I come in?" He asked.

"Yes, Please do, I think we need to talk" Electra replied.

Leo walked in and shut the door behind him. He sat down on the bed and looked at her, really looked at her. She was very beautiful, he had always thought so but looking at her now he couldn't help but feel the desire to kiss her. His honor would not allow him to make the first move without knowing that she wanted him to so he just sat there and waited for her to say whatever it was that she wanted to get off her chest.

"So, what do you want to talk about?" Leo asked trying to break the ice even though he already knew what she wanted to talk about.

"Leo, how do you feel about me?" she asked. Leo was taken back by her question, he really wasn't expecting that question and it took him a second to respond.

"Well, I think that you are an amazing warrior. You are very passionate, and I see much honor in you" Leo stated honestly.

"That is not what I meant" she told him. He knew what she meant when she asked but he was afraid to tell her, he didn't know why he was but he was.

"I really care about you, I have never met anyone like you. You don't run at the sight of me or my brothers, you accepted my me and my family for who we are. More importantly you gave me a peace of humanity that I thought never possible" Leo told her.

"What peace is that?" Electra asked him, tears forming in her eyes. Leo wiped away the tears with his hand and cupped her cheek and made her look up at him.

"You gave me love, for the first time in my life I have someone to love that is not my brother or father, or even a friend, I find that I can be myself around you and not be the fearless leader that my brothers call me or the perfect student that my father wants me to be. I can just be me and know that someone like me for me and not for my abilities or my looks, you looked past my appearance and looked at what I am inside" by this time Leo was on the verge of tears as he continued," I love you and there is nothing I wouldn't do to keep you safe or make you happy" he finished.

Electra looked up at him again and smiled,"You have been nothing but wonderful towards me and when I look at you I don't see a turtle, I see a warrior who wold give anything to keep those he loves safe from harm."

Electra positioned herself in his lap and kissed his lips. Leonardo wrapped his arms around her and pulled her down with him as he laid back on her bed. As he kissed her he let his hands move under the back of her shirt and started rubbing all over her back. Electra broke the kiss and smiled as she sat up and pulled her shirt over her head and tossed it to the floor. Leo undid his weapons Belt and laid his katanas next to the bed. He rolled her over and got on top of her as she undid her pants and slid them off and tossed them to the floor as well. After a moment Electra grabbed Leo and rolled him back onto his shell again. Straddling him, she removed her bra and leaned down to kiss him once more.

Down stairs Mikey, Donny, and Raph were involved in a game of cards when they decided to ask Electra if she wanted to play.

"She said she was going to the dojo to do a few katas, so that is probably where she is at" Raph said to Donny as Donny made his way to the dojo. When he got there he looked inside and seen it was empty.

"She's not in there" Donny said to raph.

"Check upstairs she might be in the bathroom or in her room reading, and ask Leo if he would like to play" Mikey told him.

"Ok" Donny said as he walked up stairs to find Electra and Leo. Once he got to the top he noticed the door to the bathroom was open and nobody was in there, so he decided to check on Leo and see if he wanted to play. When he got to his room he knocked on the door but received no answer, Donny looked inside and saw Leo's room was empty. Hmm, I wander where Leo is, probably on another run Donny said to himself as he approached Electra's room. When he got to her door he heard noises coming from inside and decided to peak in to make sure she was ok. He cracked the door open just a little bit and what he saw took his breath away. He stared wide eyed as he saw Electra sitting on top of Leo with not clothes on, thank God there was a sheet over her waist obstructing his view or he would have got more than he wanted to see. Donny instantly shut the door and made his way back down to where Mikey and Raph were waiting.

"So did you tell them?" Raph asked.

"Not exactly, umm, guys there is something I think you both should know" Donny said to his brothers.

"What is it bro" Mikey asked.

"I think I know who Electra likes" Donny said, still trying to get the images out of his head.

"Really, who?" Mikey asked, he was curious to find out if it was him she liked.

"Leo" was all Donny would say.

"How do you know?" Raph asked, he really did think Electra was hot and he wanted to make sure that Don wasn't messing with him.

"Well I don't think I should tell you how I know, I just know,ok?" Donny said.

"Hell No! I want to know how you know this" Raph yelled.

"Because I just walked in on Leo and Electra having sex!" Donny yelled.
