Splinter stands in front of us during our kata practices. It's another one of our weekly training sessions as Raph quickly performs the finishing move. "Ha! What? Are you fighting a guy in slow motion?" He glances back at Leo.
"I suppose I could do it faster if I ignored my form," Leo finishes off his move next to me. "Like you." He winks at me and I chuckle as I finish my move off.
"Ignore this form!" Raph jumps above Leo and they begin fighting each other. The rest of us stop as Splinter steps up to him. He pressure points both of the fighting brothers. They fall onto the ground and I grin, as I learned pressure points from him a while ago. But seeing it in action is just as hilarious as when I do it.
"Competition is an excellent motivator but not when it turns you against each other." Raph and Leo stand up. "So now, you will spar three on two."
"Okay," Leo grins, crossing his arms. "I'll take Amy and Don-"
"You will take Raphael and Amelia."
The two brothers glance at each other. I get the sense they're always sparring against each other, not with each other. Well...at least he got half his wish?
"You two must focus on working together, not competing with each other. Amelia, you are to make sure that this bond does not break between them. That is why I am placing you with them. Your powers are meant to be stronger when you focus, as they will demonstrate," He gestures to Raph and Leo. I nod in understanding. I haven't been training with my newfound powers for that long, but sometimes he'll ask me to spar with them to see how they work. I've made a little progress, but they'll still go out of control at times.
"Okay, so me and Raph against Mikey and Donnie?" Leo chuckles at the thought. "And Amy's allowed to use her powers? Uh, isn't that a little unfair?"
Whoaaaa, where did that come from? If I were in their shoes, I'd feel personally attacked right now.
"Wait, what are you trying to say?" Donnie places his hands on his hips while Mikey crosses his arms.
"Um, how can I put this gently?" Raph thinks to himself. I'm surprised he actually cares. "Ice princess, you do it."
"Oh no, I am not getting involved in this," I hold up my hands in defense. "And don't call me ice princess." Ever since I told them about my powers, he's been calling me that non-stop.
"Fine. We're...way better than you guys," Raph explains to them.
Mikey scoffs, waving his hand. "At fighting, maybe."
Raph chuckles slightly. "Uh, that's what I meant."
"Oh?" Mikey asks as a vein appears on Donnie's head. "Fine."
Splinter looks between all of us and we take our stances. Leo and Raph grin at their brothers while they glare at the older ones. I hesitantly make my hands chilly. I didn't wanna hurt 'em for their pride, but if I must...
"Hajime!"
Leo punches Mikey and elbows him. Raph punches Donnie and kicks him while I use my powers to knock them down. Raph and Leo laugh, high-threeing before they switch opponents, knocking them down. Mikey and Donnie both have snow coming from their shells, courtesy of me.
"Ya me!"
"You were right, Sensei. Working together is fun," Raph grins at Leo and I cringe, bending down to the two.
"Sorry, guys, but I didn't have a choice."
Donnie and Mikey give me a weak thumbs up.
Later on, Space Heroes is on TV. Leo comes in with two plates of pizza. Mikey and Donnie haven't said much since their little...spat with their older brothers. "Look, guys. Amy, Raph, and I may be better fighters, but you're still an important part of this team."
"Hmm. As important as you three?" Donnie retorts, Leo glancing at Raph. The turtle's reading one of his magazines. They both look at me and I ignore them, looking at the TV. I made it clear that I won't get involved, and honestly, the fact that they're trying to involve me is baffling. I never really cared about who was superior because when I first met them, I already thought they were skilled enough on their own. So, I could care less about this. Leo looks back at his two brothers.
"Very important. We shouldn't compare ourselves. It-It's like apples and oranges."
"Yeah, if apples were way better, which they are," I hear Raph mutter. I pick up a pillow and throw it at him, knocking him off his seat.
"So, the truth comes out," Donnie accuses as Mikey stands up.
"You guys think of us as some kind of...B team!"
"I don't think you're a B-team!" I turn around to them. "All of you are equally skilled, so I don't see why you need to have this argument."
"Good one, Dr. Name-enstein. We'll call you the B-team," Raph replies and Mikey crosses his arms, grinning.
"Thanks," Mikey then realizes what just happened. "I mean, hey."
I drag my hand down my face. "Stop it right now," I tell Raph.
Leo hands me the plate of pizza and I take it silently. "There's no shame in it. Look," He points to Space Heroes, "They've got a B-team too."
Oh wait, I remember this. "We'll need back-up. You two in the shirts, you're coming with us," Captain Ryan orders and they both salute to him. What's weird is that they're wearing an orange and purple shirt respectively. I know one of them is named Rodriguez, and the purple shirt is taller than his comrade. I glance at Donnie and Mikey weirdly. So creepy.
They teleport onto a planet, and not even a second later, those guys are dead.
"Rodriguez, and...that other guy! They're gone!" Crankshaw exclaims in shock.
"Well, that's why we bring them alone."
"Oh wooow," I scoff, turning to Leo. "Not a good example, Leo." I eat some of my slice.
"Thanks a lot," Donnie crosses his arms and Leo chuckles.
"The point is, they had an important function," Leo takes a bite out of his pizza.
"So Amy, does this mean you're on our side?" Mikey asks hopefully and I look around nervously. This is exactly why I don't want to get involved, because I don't wanna choose sides. In my opinion, they're all equally skilled. After all, they ALL saved my life, and April's.
"Umm, I kinda..."
"No way, she's obviously on ours. She took you guys down last week," Raph points at them.
"Doesn't mean we can't have her with us! She likes us better," Donnie brags, crossing his arms.
"But I'm not-"
"Yeah, we're nicer to her!" Mikey pouts to Raph and Leo.
"Does this matter? When I first met you, you-"
"She likes Space Heroes, she's clearly with us," Leo states and they all begin arguing. I rub my temple at their voices, getting annoyed by the minute as a vein appears at my forehead. God, if you can hear me, get me out of this situation...
We hear someone entering to see April walking towards us. The turtles stop arguing to look at her. She looks upset, like something just happened. Yus! At April's arrival, not because she's sad. I'm so glad I got out of that one, because I would've frozen them right there and then.
"April!" We all approach her. "What's wrong? Are you okay?" Donnie asks in concern.
"I just got mugged by the Purple Dragons. They stole my phone!" She explains and I gasp, covering my mouth.
"Oh no!" I hug her.
"Don't worry. We'll kick their butts for you," Leo declares.
"Yeah, we'll teach those punks to mess with April O'Neil," Raph punches his hands together.
"Guys, it's just a phone. I'll get another one," April tells them.
"I have to agree. The Purple Dragons aren't worth it and phones are replaceable," I place my arm on April's shoulder. "And besides, it's not even a major thing to beat them up for." Unless they prove they're an actual threat tonight, I don't think we should do it. I mean, come on, it's the Purple Dragons. What are they gonna do, set a building on fire?
"Come on. What's the point of being a ninja if you can't help your friends when they get robbed?" Donnie asks her.
"The girls are right." We turn to Splinter. He needs a bell one of these days. "It is best to let this go."
"What do you mean?" Leo questions in confusion. "Why shouldn't we get her phone back? We'd do it if it was Amy too."
April smirks at me, elbowing me in the arm slightly. I give her a look that says 'Don't.' I...don't really know my feelings towards him. Not yet. I like him as a friend, but do I like him more than that? I know that we had this connection when we met, but...not sure what it's supposed to mean.
"One cannot predict the consequences of battle," He walks up to us. "Every fight has the potential to stir a hornet's nest. A simple cell phone does not justify this risk."
"What risk? It's the Purple Dragons, even Mikey and Donnie could beat 'em."
"Hey!" They both exclaim and I roll my eyes.
"Even if it's just to get your brothers here all riled up," I jerk a thumb at Mikey and Donnie. "I still don't think we should do it."
"Sorry Amy, but it's four to one," Leo shrugs at me. "Don't worry, Sensei. We'll be careful. Come on, Amy."
I sigh in defeat as we leave the lair, leaving April and Splinter behind.
Raph kicks Sid, the largest member, into a wall. Their hideout is the Fortune Cookie Factory, so they're not that hard to find, really. Fong spits out his drink.
"The turtles and Pinkie?"
"Sup?" Raph asks casually as we land next to him.
"Waaa!" Mikey does a karate pose.
"My name is not Pinkie!" I yell at them. "It's Amy!"
"Get 'em!" Tosi growls as he jumps into the air.
"Bring it!" Mikey pulls out his nunchucks.
"Coming through!" Raph kicks him away, Mikey growling at him. Fong and Donnie charge at each other, but Leo gets in the way.
"I got it!" He kicks up in the air, hitting Fong in the stomach. Donnie protests as a vein appears on his forehead.
"Let's get out of here!" Fong and Tsoi run, since Sid was already knocked down from before. Raph and Mikey stand in front of them, blocking their way. They turn around, only to be stopped by Leo, Donnie, and I. Leo pushes Fong to the wall, trapping him.
"You punks stole a phone from a friend of ours. We want it back," He demands and Fong scoffs at him.
"Whatever. We steal a lot of phones. Impressed?" He winks at him and I gag, disgusted. Leo squeezes his throat slightly, shocking the rest of us as Fong starts to choke a little. "Ack!"
"Well, let's see 'em. Now!" Leo orders, gritting his teeth. He looks really annoyed and angry all of a sudden...I wonder why.
We look at all the stuff they've stolen lately. Electronics, paintings... Donnie points to something on the table. "Hey, that looks like it." There's a red phone leaning across something with a charm at the bottom.
Suddenly, the place starts shaking and we look around, wide-eyed. "Does anyone else feel that?"
"What's going on?" Sid asks in confusion and our curiosities are died down as these weird silver robots with big mouths crash through the floor.
"What the heck?" Leo wonders as they start stealing from the Purple Dragons. They then take the items back by jumping into the hole and disappearing.
"Hey, those things are stealing the stuff we stole!" Sid exclaims in protest.
"Better them than you!" I retort to him and Leo looks around. Something wasn't right.
"Wait, where's...?" He looks up to see Fong running up the stairs, laughing. He holds up the phone, saluting to us. "He's got the phone! B-team, get him! We'll handle the metal!" Leo pulls out his swords.
"Hey, we are-"
"Just go!" Leo yells to them.
"If you guys can't handle it, don't be ashamed to call for help," Raph points to them, following Leo. Mikey looks offended by that and pouts at me.
"Amy, you're going with them? I thought you were on our side!"
"I'm on my own team. Wait a minute, this shouldn't even be a conversation!" I back away to follow Leo and Raph. Personally, I never wanted to deal with the Purple Dragons regardless, and they'd be too easy for me to fight. That's why I'm going with the robots so I can actually have a challenge...and have a chance to try out my powers.
"Traitor!" Mikey points at me dramatically. "Maybe you should call us for help. Or don't call us, we'll call you. Wait, I mean-"
"I think they got it," Donnie assures him and I hear a raspberry. Oh yeah, real mature.
Raph throws one of his sai at a robot, knocking it to the wall and shutting it down. Leo cuts one into pieces, kicking one away. He lunges at another one, cutting into pieces. I point my hand at some, freezing them. I turn around and slice one in half. Some of them run away down into the hole, one of them screeching until Leo disables it.
"Come on. Let's see where these things are coming from." Leo suddenly grabs me into his arms and I shriek in surprise as the two jump down the hole.
I hope Donnie and Mikey have better luck with the phone.
We land into Baxter Stockman's lair, where the robots are surrounding him with all the stolen things. "Dexter Spackman," Raph narrows his eyes, spinning his sais into his hands.
"Baxter Stockman," I whisper to him.
"It's Baxter Stockman!" Stockman exclaims.
"I was close," Raph shrugs carelessly.
"So you're here to stop me again. Well, you don't stand a chance against my MOUSERS." One of them snaps its jaws at us.
"Mousers?" Leo asks in confusion.
"Mobile, offensive, underground, search, excavation, and retrieval sentries," Stockman explains and I glance at Leo.
"Seems a little forced," Leo comments.
"More like lame," I cough into my fist.
"Since my test robbery was successful, it's time to move on to bigger targets. These are about to make me very, very rich," He grins evilly.
"And we're gonna make you very, very hurt," Raph threatens and we walk towards him. He pulls out this bottle and sprays us with it.
"Acid! Protect your eyes!" Leo calls out and we cover them, coughing, but nothing's happening to us.
"Wait. We're fine," Raph turns to Leo, who coughs before he realizes that he only sprayed us.
"Wait, what?" I ask in confusion as my eyes aren't irritated or anything.
"You're right." But he must've done something. Why spray us to have nothing happen? It's not like him. "Get him!"
"Get me? No, you will be the ones who will be getting got! ...Gotten? Get them!" The robots run towards us, but we defeat them easily, landing at the top of the stairs.
"Ha, all gone!" Raph brags.
"Aw, did we break your little toys?" I tease him.
"Good thing I made extra," Stockman presses a button from his remote and a hatch opens up. We look down to see plenty of Mousers, all of which we can't fight at once. They stand in front of Stockman and we glance to each other, jumping into battle. We start slicing left and right, but there's too many of them to take down.
"I'm calling it. Time to go!" Leo takes off.
"I'll allow it," Raph says nervously.
"You got my vote!"
We jump down from the platform as Stockman is laughing at us. "You can't laugh forever. Soon the Mousers will crush your bones in their jaws. Such is the fate of anyone foolish enough to trifle with Baxter Stock-" I don't hear the rest because something interrupted him. Good, because that monologue was getting boring.
The two turtles and I are running across the rooftops, trying our best to get those Mousers off our backs, or shells. I jump onto a fire escape and leap to the roof nearby. Leo and Raph slide to a stop and I press my back against the wall, a little exhausted.
"You think we lost them yet?" Leo asks and we look down the street to see the Mousers having already found us. Raph turns to us.
"I'd say no."
"How are those things tracking us?" Leo wonders as we jump to the next building.
"It's gotta be that stuff he sprayed us with," Raph deduces, and I think he's right as they didn't start chasing us until after we were sprayed.
"I've seen this kind of tracking before, but I can't put my finger on it..." I murmur, rubbing my chin. I know that I've seen it, since my mom briefly did an experiment with it, but I don't remember what it does...
"Oh yeah, real helpful, ice princess. And this is coming from the daughter of not one, but two scientists," Raph calls out and I glare at him.
"Alright, we better call Donnie," Leo suggests and Raph turns to him, not happy about it at all.
"You wanna get bailed out by the B-team? Forget that."
"Hey, it's not a crime to ask for help!" I yell as we jump to another building.
"Maybe we won't have to," Leo is talking about a water tower up ahead. "Whatever this stuff is, we'll just wash it off," He cuts off a pipe, spraying us with water.
"Aah, cold!" Raph shivers slightly and I smirk at him.
"You don't know cold, buddy," I comment as I squeeze my hair dry and he grunts.
"That oughta do it."
We hear a shriek behind us and we see more Mousers climbing towards us.
"Or not," I murmur in shock.
"Of course, we could call Donne just to say hi," Raph says nervously.
Leo calls Donnie, who answers it. "I'm kind of in the middle of something."
"Is that Leo? Tell him my operation names," I hear from Mikey.
"What's the matter? Oh don't tell me the A-team needs our help," Donnie brags and I glance down from my spot.
"Uh, no," Leo chuckles nervously. "No, of course not. No, we're great. I-I'm just, you know, checking to see if you guys need any help." I roll my eyes at their pride. They're so confident that they don't even wanna ask their brothers for assistance...
"We got this. We followed Fong to the defunct futon factory on Fifth."
"Say that five times fast," Mikey calls out.
"Anyway, we've got an awesome plan to get the phone. How are you guys doing?"
"You know, good...ish." He doesn't mention the fact that we're on top of the water tower, as the Mousers have surrounded us from down below. They start chewing on the support of the structure and Leo's eyes widen. I raise my hand, causing icicles to form underneath the Mousers, impaling them. We all sigh in relief...until more of them show up. "Whoops, call waiting! Gotta go!" He hangs up, turning to Raph. "You were right."
"He was?" I ask in confusion.
"We've gotta beat these things on our own if it kills us."
"Uh..."
"Okay, bad choice of words."
Suddenly, we fall through the water tower, crashing.
We're fighting more of the Mousers. I can't tell how many we've fought so far, but it's too much to count. Leo slices through some and he looks down at us.
"Look guys," He holds up his swords, showing five robot heads attached to his swords. "Mouser kabobs."
I chuckle until four more lunge at Raph and I. Raph grabs them and throws two down onto the street below. I spin around, kicking them the other two into a trash can. Raph pants as he looks up at Leo.
"These things are a cakewalk."
"Someone just do it, end me. End my life," I pant as I place my hand on my knees. I'd rather be dead than do all this...
We jump down a fire escape, landing in the alley as another Mouser is there. Raph kicks it away as we all hold trash can lids as shields. I throw one into another trash can and hear a shriek, turning around. We tilt the trash can up so that the Mouser that was gonna attack us lands inside. They claw at each other and we look down to the alley. Another freakin' wave of Mousers...yaaaaay...
They run towards us and we seal off the trash can, planting our feet against it.
"Now!" Leo signals and we kick it towards the group. It only knocks out ONE as the others maneuvered around it. "I could do this all day."
"Me too," Raph says as the two of us are fending off the robots with our shields. He knocks one into the air, but a truck is headed in his path.
"Raph!"
"Get out of the way!" I screech as his eyes widen. He rolls out of the way just in time, with the Mousers getting destroyed by the passing truck. I stare down the vehicle, shaking my fist. "Hey, you idiot, normally people stop if someone's in the street! Road hog! You don't deserve no driver's license!"
Raph is laughing by the time I get over there. "That was so fun," He deadpans at almost being run over, Leo and I offering our hands. We help him up and I want you to guess what happens next using your context clues.
We look down the alley, to see more of them...! Just how many did this guy make? He must've had a lot of time on his hands...he needs to get out more.
"It's almost too much fun," Leo pants and we run off.
"Yeah, so freaking fun I wanna jump off a building," I smile widely as one of my eyes twitches.
We turn a corner, stopping at a lamp post. "Okay, this is crazy," Leo states, "Maybe we should call-"
"We can do this," Raph interrupts as he takes a breath.
"How?" I ask him in disbelief and he looks up.
"I got an idea. Ice princess, when I tell you to, use your powers."
"But I still can't control them!" I call out as I see more Mousers.
"Just do it!"
"Rrgh." I don't have much a choice, since they're still chasing us, one. And two, what do I have to lose? The Mousers screech at us as we're standing on the lamp post.
"Up here, Metal Mouth!" Leo eggs, tapping his sword against the post. One of them starts chewing on the pole and Leo pulls out his other sword. Leo nods at us.
"Amy, now!"
I move my hands around as snow surrounds them, causing little glaciers to form around the Mousers' feet. This traps them into place. Leo jumps down and lands on one of their hands, jumping around and slicing one in half. He jumps up into the air and slices some more, landing on a fire extinguisher. My mouth opens in shock at his moves. He's so fluent and fast. A Mouser that was not captured jumps, landing at the extinguisher and causing it to open. It explodes, washing them all. The pole is close to snapping, but Raph grabs me and grabs a rope, hollering as we jump away and land in front of a store. The pole falls down, shocking them all and disabling them.
"Told you we didn't need those guys," Raph replies and we hear a noise, our eyes shrinking. We look down the street...not again...
"Oh come on," Leo groans in exhaustion as we run off again. I end up tripping since I'm so tired of running. "Amy!" Leo grabs me and carries me over to a warehouse. They shut the doors and barricade it shut. "You okay?" Leo looks down at me and I nod, leaning against the door between the two. They're trying to break in by ramming the door.
"Okay, I admit it. I wish Donnie were here, I bet he could find a way to get these things off our tail," Raph tells us and a Mouser claws its way through the door below me. I shriek, jumping into the air. "Make the call!"
Leo calls him, but no answer. "He's not picking up!"
I call Mikey, only to get the same result. "Mikey's not answering either. I think something happened to them."
"I should've known they'd need us to bail them-" The Mousers push down the door. I turn around and close my eyes, feeling the snow from my hands. They erupt and when I open my eyes, all the Mousers are frozen. I sigh in relief, pulling out my T-Phone.
"Amy, that was amazing!" Leo exclaims in shock.
"Heck yeah! You kick butt!" Raph cheers as I'm doing something with my phone. "What are you doing?"
"I'm trying to pinpoint Donnie's last known signal. Huh, says here their phones are offline..."
"So?" Raph asks, standing up.
"So, that means that they were either broken, or something broke off their signals. I'm guessing they got captured and their phones were broken in the process, or Donnie self-destructed them. And if I use that satellite," I point to a satellite dish across the street. "I can use it to track their last known location."
"You can do that?" Leo questions in surprise.
"I'm the daughter of two scientists. That's like saying Mikey can't eat pizza," I snort, "Donnie showed me how to do it once." I finally get something. "Ah, they're still in the futon factory on Fifth Avenue. They must've been seen. Let's go!"
We crash through the rooftop window of the factory, landing in front of Dogpound and Fong. "The turtles and the girl!"
"Not so fast, Dogpound!" Leo declares, but there's someone else there too. "And Dexter Spackman?"
"Baxter Stockman!" He shouts. What's he doing with Dogpound? Dogpound growls and runs towards us. Leo spins above him and runs. Raph runs up to the dog and kicks him. Leo stops Stockman from taking April's phone. "How did you escape my Mousers?"
"We didn't," Leo simply says as the Mousers jump in from the roof. Some of them land on Stockman and Dogpound. While they're distracted, Leo and I cut the B tea—I mean, Mikey and Donnie—free.
"We're here to save the day, as usual," Raph brags and I throw a snowball at him.
"Oh yeah, looks like you guys were doing great," Donnie retorts as Raph brushes the snow off his face.
"You try fighting off 2 thousand robots!" Raph points to the Mousers.
"Let's beat it!" The Purple Dragons escape, good riddance to them. The rest of us fight off the Mousers, Dopgound growling at us.
"Mikey!"
Mikey turns to Leo. "Keep away!" He throws the phone to Mikey, who jumps and catches it in his hand. Dogpound chases after him, Mikey jumping over the stairs. He screams as Dogpound doesn't relent in his chase.
While we're fighting the robots, one of the heads splits open and Donnie pulls out a camera from it. "Whoa! A gamma camera!"
"Now I remember. Don't those detect radioisotopes?" I call out as I turn around and slice a Mouser in half.
"Yeah, that must be what he's tagged you with."
"Oh," Raph retorts, stabbing a Mouser through the head with his weapon. "How do we get it off?!"
Donnie holds up his staff as a Mouser bites onto it. "You can't. It wears off gradually. But if someone else got sprayed, they'd give off a stronger signal." Mikey yelps as he jumps down from the stairs, the phone sliding to a stop. Dogpound is about to attack him, but Donnie jumps up and smacks him with his staff. "We gotta get Stockman's spray. It controls the Mousers."
"You mean that thing?" Mikey points to Stockman's bottle in his hand.
"I'll handle this, dog man," He holds it up, about to hit us with it again! "One spritz and they're Mouser chow."
Raph throws two shuriken at it, causing it to explode and spray the two villains. The Mousers stop attacking us and since the two were recently just sprayed, they go after them. Dogpound tries to defend himself against them, but several of them start chomping on his tail. He screams and the two run away. Stockman trips and Dogpound grabs him, April's phone ringing. I don't know who would be calling her, but she told me once about a friend from school I haven't had the chance to meet yet. Donnie throws a kunai at the phone, causing it to break into pieces.
Dogpound growls at him. "Hang it up, Dogpound. Your call just got dropped," Donnie says and I laugh, high-threeing him.
"Good one."
"Thanks," He winks, Raph and Leo glaring at him for some reason. Dogpound smashes through the wall, taking Stockman with him. He'll probably take him to Shredder...another villain we gotta watch out for...
We watch as the two run. "Nice job, guys," Leo congratulates.
"Yeah," Raph wraps his arms around them. "From here on out, you're the A minus team."
"That's probably the best we're gonna get out of him," Donnie comments and Raph starts rubbing Mikey's head.
"Ow! Hey!" Leo and Donnie wrap their arms around each other, following them. Leo takes my hand and I blush, feeling content.
Mikey plays some music from a stereo, tapping his foot against the floor. He bops his head to the beat before he starts dancing around. He does some impressive moves for a turtle. Raph is feeding Spike while Donnie and I are watching Leo play pinball.
"I hope you all see that by choosing your own battles poorly, you created your own crisis," Splinter says and I grin widely at them.
"Yeah, there's definitely some irony there," Donnie agrees.
"Okay, it got a little out of control, but we learned our lesson," Leo replies, "And at least we got April's phone back."
"You did?" April just happens to arrive. "Sweet!"
Donnie holds out the phone...which breaks into pieces. She looks up at us, confused by what could've happened.
"Uh, the important thing is it didn't end up in the wrong hands," Leo points out.
"Yeah, that's true," I murmur as April didn't look so grateful.
"Gee...thanks guys."
"Aw, don't worry, April. You can have one of my custom-built T-Phones," Donnie holds up a T-Phone. She takes it in excitement.
"Ooo, cool!"
Mikey pops up between April and Leo. "Just don't say T-Phone, self-destruct." Both hers AND mine break apart. "Or else that happens."
"Thanks a lot, Mikey..." I sigh slowly. Though, I do wonder what happened with Stockman. No doubt he's in the hands of Shredder...
I glance at Leo, who I can't believe almost could've killed Fong. And for what? It's not like Fong spit in his face or something. "Hey, what was that with Fong?" I ask him and his eyes widen.
"What do you mean?" April wonders, curious.
"Leo here started choking Fong after he started flirting with ice princess," Raph calls out as he feeds Spike another bite of the leaf.
"You did what?!" Aptil exclaims as Leo is backing away.
"U-Um, well...he keeps flirting with her even though she clearly dislikes it. Raph would do it too!" Leo stammers, pointing to Raph to try and get the attention off of him.
"Doesn't mean I'd go that far and almost kill a guy," Raph retorts back.
"Will you be okay?" I ask in concern as I'm not even worried he did that for me. I'm worried that the next time he sees Fong, he might do something risky and his brothers need him...
"Yeah...he just better keep his mouth shut," Leo growls slightly. This is so weird, I've never seen him like this...the other turtles and April glance at each other, as if they know something that I don't. Does it have to do with Leo? If so, what?
