Okay, so I know another daughter was a bit of a bombshell, but I actually know how I want to end this story. :)
P.S. This is going to be a five part series. They're all gonna be focused mainly on Raph and Bernie, but I promise a ton is gonna be about the others too. I love them all so much. Donnie is my least favorite turtle, not by much, so I don't know why chose him to have Ivy first…oh well, all will be revealed soon!
P.P.S. Thanks for all the reviewage (is that a word)! It was incredible last chappie, and I hope it continues! Please enjoy!
Chapter 11
Shredder greeted his daughter as she got off the plane from Japan.
"Hello, Father." She greeted with her bow and quiver bouncing as she walked. Her long black hair was mostly down, with the exception of two small braids on either side of her face.
"Akita." Shredder said.
"I would have come sooner, but I had to finish my training." Her voice was slightly slurred with Japanese.
"I understand, daughter."
"Where's Karai?" Akita asked, looking for any sign of her older sister.
Shredder's face darkened, "We are not to speak of her again."
"Is she dead?" Akita asked with fear in her voice.
Shredder was going to hit her, but then realized she had been left in the dark. He sighed, and began to explain the whole epidemic.
When his tale was over, Akita asked, "Mutant ninja turtles? Father, doesn't that seem a bit…far-fetched?"
"I understand where you're coming from with that, but it is true. And you are my new second in command. Your job will be to catch Hamato Yushi and his sons…and retrieve Karai."
"Hai, Father. I will not fail you, although I will need, what is called, assistance."
"Of course. Let me introduce you to your new team."
…
"This is what you offer, Father? A band of freaks?" Akita put her hands on her hips as she looked at the giant tiger, skeleton dog, and fish man.
The fish man put on a look of disgust and said, "You are just as disrespectful as your elder sister."
"Xever!" Shredder warned, "Akita, these are my best soldiers. They will not fail you."
Tiger Claw said, "An ally of the Shredder is an ally of mine."
"I like you, tiger. What's your name?"
"Tiger Claw."
"Sore subject, maybe, but can I ask what happened to your tail?"
"It was cut off by an enemy. I swore vengeance that day…" He trailed off.
"So we've got a tiger called Tiger Claw and a fish called Xever, and a dog? Who are you?"
"This is Rahzar, Akita." Shredder said.
Akita gave a small nod. "I will not fail you, Father. And I would hope your team would not either."

Karai stood before her family.
"When I was very young, Shredder had another daughter...we knew that our mothers were different, but we still considered each other sister. Her name was Akita, and for the past three years, she's been in Japan, training."
"Wow." Mikey said, "So we can have another sister!"
Donnie said, "She was raised by the Shredder, maybe even born by him. I doubt she's going to convert."
Bernie said, "Well, Karai did…what's her name?" She was rubbing her stomach. The baby had just kicked for the third time that day.
"Her name's Akita." The name kept ringing in Bernie's mind. She couldn't stop thinking about it for the rest of the day.

Bernie opened her laptop and typed in the name Akita. She knew it meant something. She just couldn't figure out what. She read:
Your name, Akita, gives you the desire to understand and help others with their problems but, at the same time, you can become too involved and worrying as the result.
This name creates a pleasant, easy-going, and responsible nature.
You are good natured and affectionate and enjoy home and family life.
You tend to avoid issues, however, and put off until tomorrow decisions that should be made today.
For that reason, you would find difficulty in achieving success in positions requiring aggressiveness and quick decisions.
Your inclination is to pursue a line of work where you carry some level of responsibility and diplomacy is required in contact with people.
Others can, at times, take advantage of your gentle nature.
The health weaknesses created by this name affect the fluid functions.
The name Akita creates the urge to understand and help others, we emphasize that it causes a interfering, bossy quality.
She smiled at that, the name reminding her of Leo, and clicked the back arrow. She clicked on images, and then saw an Akita dog.
"That's it!" She exclaimed. Mikey and Raph were giving her a strange look. "Sorry. I just found out where I heard Akita before." She turned her computer around and they saw a beautiful dog with tan and white fur.
"Karai's sister is a dog?"
"No you idiot! The dog's name is an Akita." Raph said.
"When I was a little girl, I fed a stray Akita dog. Mom wouldn't let me keep her though." She smiled, remembering before she had her scars.
Donnie walked out with Ivy and Metalhead. Donnie said, "Introducing, the new and improved Metalhead!"
Metalhead walked out into the foyer and Bernie shut her laptop. Metalhead opened his mouth and began to sing an old song nobody knew the words to. Bernie laughed.
"Wow. He can sing incredibly." Mikey complimented.
Donnie said, "That's not all. Metalhead, engage trial run 3.0."
Metalhead began to dance to the song he was singing.
Leo said, "That's cool Donnie." Mikey got up and began to dance with him. Waverly walked in wearing jean shorts with a thin brown belt, a loose fitting spaghetti strap white shirt, with a blue unbuttoned plaid shirt, a faux gold watch, a brown necklace with a triangle attached, and ankle high tan boots. Her aviator sunglasses dangled around her neck. She held two pizza pies and watched Mikey dance with the machine. It wasn't until he turned around that he saw her standing there, her hair up in her hipster glory.
"Waverly!" Mikey exclaimed. He ran over to her and grabbed the pizza. He hugged the boxes and said, "I missed you so much! It's been an entire week!"
Waverly cocked an eyebrow and said, "Um, me or the pizza?"
"You, duh, I had pizza last night. Ooh, come check this out! The baby talks to us!" He set the pizza on the coffee table and grabbed her wrist, pulling her over to Bernie.
"Can I?" Mikey asked.
Bernie smiled, "Go crazy."
Raph said protectively, "Not too crazy, though."
Waverly pressed her ear to Bernie's stomach and heard the small baby moving.
Mikey said in a robot's voice, "Hello, baby, I am your Uncle Mikey. Boo-ya-ka-sha!" Bernie smiled.
"My baby's gonna be attached to the toaster if you keep talking like that."
"That's totally what you should name him!" Mikey suddenly exclaimed.
"What?" Raph asked like he was stupid.
"You should name him Booyakasha. It'll totally fit a little tot around here."
Bernie and Raph exchanged glances. Bernie said, "Well…Mikey…we don't know if it's gonna be a boy or a girl yet. But we'll definitely consider that name…"
"Awesome." He turned his attention to the pizza and his eyes widened.
Waverly stood up and said, "I made it myself."
He shoved a piece of pizza in his mouth, "I can tell. I wuv your pizza. Tastes so much better den Antonio's did."
"What happened to Antonio? He disappeared a few months back."
The guys exchanged glances. Mikey said, "That, my friend is a story for another day."
The End…of this chappie!
