"wow, I've been gone so long that I actually miss these old sewers," Leo said to himself as he walks down the familiar sewer halls. Leo didn't know what to expect when he got home, he was little nervous to see his family and happy at the same time but when he turned the corner he stopped in his tracks.
"Oh, no the lair!" he hissed as he tossed his bag behind some debris from the destroyed door. Leo pulled out one of his swords and slowly made his way into what was once his home.
"no what happened here!" he whispered to himself as he scanned the lair, he didn't make it far taught as a huge robot looking thing jumped right in front of him.
"You dare come into my home and do this!" he shouted getting over is the shock. Leo jumped in then ran and grabbed his second katana and cut the machine down in two simple blows. Then he opened up the down machine only to find a man inside Leo sliced the buckle.
"the foot." Leo growled seeing the all too familiar symbol. "my family, where are they?" Leo demanded in an icy cold tone. As he lifted the man out to the sit and closer to his face.
"you will get nothing from me!" the man said as he reached a red button on his console. Leo looked down to see what the guy did only to see the red flashing button that what getting louder with a shrill whine, realizing what it was Leo dropped the man and ran for his life back towards the entrance only to fly the next couple of yards when the foot bot blows up destroying what was left of Leo's already destroyed home.
"I need so answers," Leo said to himself as he picked himself from the rumble, he grabbed his bag and looked for a safe place first to collect his thoughts and come up with a plan.
One hour later
"foot one to base we have activity at turtle sight five." A ninja said as he started at a figure walking towards April's shop.
"get a clear scan of that kids face see if we have a file on her." Another man said that was looking at another screen.
"on it." The first guy said as the figure walked into the antique shop.
"yo miss, miss I got your pizza your ordered."
"pizza? What… angel?"
"yeah that's mine name doesn't wear it out." "do you want this pie or not." The girl said winking at the confused April. Angle opened the pizza box but there was no pizza just a note April grabbed the piece of paper and carefully read the short note
'lair is destroyed have you heard from the others?' -Leo
April almost wanted to shout for joy that Leo was back and alive but she had to control herself, she didn't want to give anything away to the foot that was watching her.
"I ordered a pizza but this isn't it, this is the third time this month that you delivered the wrong pizza, I am writing a note to your boss and you better take it to him. This is an outrage an outrage!" she shouted and wicked at Angel. As she placed a new note and the sewer sign in the box.
"whatever lady." Angle smiled and walked out of the shop dropping the pizza box in the phone booth outside the shop.
"foot one to base it is just a pizza delivery kid she's clean." The first man said,
"roger that foot one stay alert." They both went back to watching the screens.
When Leo got the pizza box, he greedily opened it to find the sign and a note which he opened hastily
'Leo I'm so sorry I'm not sure what to say… Karai said she got them all she left this. and said if you wanted to see them again that you needed to give yourself up. please be careful.'
"no, it can't be, Karai… I will find them and bring them home."
"Mistress Karai we just received the report that the shredded not unit stationed in the turtle's lair was destroyed." A ninja said quickly as the new shredder returned from her trip.
"Leonardo…" she said distastefully "deploy all available foot ninja search the city and bring him to me!"
"this night my beloved father will truly be avenged," Karai said as she looked to the stars.
Inside Karai was meet with three turtles all in foot gear and bowed
"Mistress Karai." They said in unison
"I was in Japan and Leonardo was not there." She hissed
"we were unaware…" Raph started off but was cut off
"no matter Leonardo is apparently back in the city and what you to go to your positions and get ready for his arrival." She said they bowed and walked off to get ready for Karai's plan.
Leonardo was heading back to his new hiding spot when he came across a tow truck struggling to get the battle shell back on its wheels to hall away cop cars had the street blocked off their flashing lights illuminated the surrounding area. 'the battle shell looked like it took a missile or two.' Leo thought and he tried to take in the scene. that's when he noticed outside of the blocked off area, he saw a separate set of tracks that looked like Raph shell cycle tracks so he ran across the rooftop until the tracks came to an end, he got down to street level careful not to be seen as he tried to guess which way His younger brother would have gone. Taking his best guess, he walked for a little while then he came up to Raph's helmet, which was cracked and misshapen.
Leo picked up the helmet and closed his eyes as he let his thought flow through his head then an image like a movie began to play in his head he watched as Raph was driving trying to avoid the missiles then when the first one hit Raph grabbed an injured-looking splinter and escaped in the shell cycle. Leo watched as Raph tried to get away as fast as he could and watch when Raph though down his helmet and ran towards the train tracks.
"Coney Island," Leo said realizing where Raph and hopefully Master splinter was he searched all the places Raph would mostly hide with an injured Splinter. He had searched for two hours before he saw a giant rat tail that could only belong to master Splinter. Running over he fell to his knees and ripped off the old cloth that had covered his father and let a small gasp escape his lips. The old rat was coved in semi-sticky blood; dried blood caked the gray fur and Splinter wasn't moving.
"master Splinter?" Leo asked he didn't get a response he checked to see if the old rat was still breathing and he sighed in relief when he got a sign that his father was still alive if only barely.
Leo carefully picked up Master Splinter and disappeared into the night heading to what would be their new home.
"my son…" Splinter tried to hope his eyes only to shut them again
"I'm here" came a voice that sounded far away
"Raphael?" he asked as he tried to open his eyes again
"no Master, it is me Leonardo." When Splinter finally opened his eyes, he was meant we worried blue eyes of his eldest
"Leo-Leonardo." Master Splinter as in weakening joy
"yes, master Splinter? Are you ok?" Leo said as he watched his father struggle to keep his eyes open
"Leonardo your brother Karai-"
"I know…" Leo said sadly cutting off splinter "don't worry Sensei everything will be ok. I promise"
"Leonardo where… where am I?" he asked trying to sit up and the pain in his chest was making it very difficult
"Master Splinter please lay still you are in a safe place for you to rest and recuperate that is far from the old lair." Leo said as he gently lay his father pay in his bed, he nodded trusting in his eldest son
"Leonardo now that I am safe…" he started only to be cut off again
"I am already on its Master Splinter I will bring them home." And with that darkness filled Splinter's vision once more.
Leo sighed "Don't worry I will bring them home" he said more to himself then the sleeping rat. With that Leo left the lair to search for his brothers.
