This will be based off the turtles from the last 2 new movies. I was ask to try this and I love a challenge I loved the 2 movies I watched so if this isn't your thing please move on. This will contain a relationship between human/turtle you have been warned. Will be mature.
Bella works at a night club in New York owned by a Purple dragon leader though she doesn't know it. When she witnesses her boss and his men kill a man she runs for her life only to be saved by Raphael. Having no other safe place to go they let her stay in the lair with them to keep her safe and she grows to love the turtles and the hot head in red. Can they show her they will never hurt her like the people in her past what happens when the Cullen's return. Mature content I don't own anything. Raphael/Bella.
Bella sighed as she cleaned the bar up from a long and busy night. She had moved to New York when Charlie was killed by Victoria. Her mother died in a car crash not long after. The wolves took down Victoria for her but Bella just couldn't stay there anymore. She still felt numb from the Cullen's betrayal and then Jake broke her heart again imprinting on a girl from his rez. Everyone she's ever cared about leaves her so she packed up, sold the house and moved to New York.
So far she loved the city but hated the job she found. When her truck broke down after she arrived she found a job within walking distance from the motel she was renting by the week for now. Her boss was an ass and constantly pressuring her to try dancing but Bella refused to do anything more than bar tend and work the kitchen. So far she hadn't met really anyone other than the people that she worked with and none of them she would want as friends outside of work.
Ever since Edward and the Cullen's and then Jake and the wolves she finds it hard to trust people now days. Afraid they would hurt her but in her heart she wants to find friends, find family and maybe one day love again. She just knew it would take a certain special person or people to break her walls again.
"We're out of Gin. Can you go get some before we leave?" the head bartender ask her. Nodded she grabbed her bag and slung it around her body as she made her way to the back quickly to pick up a case of Gin before she left for the rest of the night.
Bella passed a big guard on the way to the back but she hide in one of the rooms until he passed. The men that worked for her boss always made the hair on the back of her neck stand out. She knew she drew danger to her for some reason and maybe she's just being hyper vigilant because she ran with Vampires and Wolves at one time but now it seemed she felt danger everywhere.
Heading to the door of the stock room she opened it and froze in horror.
There stood her boss and several of his men dressed in black suits. There was another man on his knees begging for his life then her boss took a large knife of some kind and slit the man's throat open and Bella gasp in shock giving herself away.
Her boss looked over at her and sighed.
"I really wished you wouldn't have seen that Bella." He said before handing his knife to a man at his right.
"Bring her here, now." he ordered and the men all turned towards her and Bella bolted. She ran through the club and out the back door leading into the alley, the men all following behind her. She felt tears run down her face. How many times would she escape death before it caught up with her.
She darted into the busy street and screaming for help but no one bothered to stop so she kept running.
When she went down what she thought was another street she panted as she groaned. It was a dead end alleyway and now the men were coming towards her.
"Please. I won't tell I promise." She begged as they walked towards her, weapons in hand.
"No you won't. We'll make sure of that. But first. Let's have some fun." One of the men said as he shoved her against the wall ran his hands up her body before gripping her neck tightly with both hands cutting off her airway.
"Let her go." She heard a deep voice say from the side of them and the men all jumped in fear as Bella was finally let go gasping for air she slid to the ground and drew her legs against her.
"It's the turtles." The bad men yelled.
She saw a large figure moving quickly as he fought off her attackers. Half of them ran away but the ones he got to were all knocked out on the ground and tied up.
The large figure walked over towards her but stayed in the shadows so she couldn't see him very well.
"Hey lady. Are you alright?" he ask with a thick New York accent. Bella wiped the tears from face as she stood on shaky legs. She rubbed her neck and knew she was probably already starting to bruise.
"Thank, thank you." She chocked out her voice coming out raw from being chocked.
"Maybe you should go to the hospital." The figure ask and she shook her head.
"No. I don't like Hospitals and they'll find me there. They're going to kill me." She said and burst into tears again. What was wrong with her? She hasn't been this emotional since Charlie died.
"Ah hell." The figure said just as they heard the sounds of tires screeching meaning more men were coming. She was scooped up into large arms and they were flying to the top of the building before he say her down again. Turning she gasp in shock.
Standing there looking down at her was a very large turtle with human features, a red bandana on his head and two large forked knives in his belt. Bella knew she should be freaked out and scared but for some reason she felt at complete ease with her savior.
"Wow. This is a new one even for me." She said as she reached forward and touched his arm. When he flinched but didn't move she threw herself into his arms and thanked him over and over again.
"Thank you so much. I was so scared. They're going to kill me and I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't of come. Thank you." She said over and over and Raph just stood there eyes wide, unsure what to do. His three brothers landed on the roof next to them and stared at the scene.
"What's going on here Raph?" Leo demanded and scared Bella out of her mind. Raphael growled at his brother as he shushed Bella who still hadn't let go of him yet.
"I saved her from a beg group of Purple Dragons. For some reason they want her badly as they came back a few minutes later with more men so I brought her here. She keeps saying they're going to kill her. That's all I know." Raphael told his brothers who just shared a look as they watched the petite brunette cling to their brother.
After a few moments Bella finally calmed down enough to pull away from Raphael and wipe her face.
"I'm sorry. I'm not normally this weepy but everything just caught up with me I guess." She said and Raphael just shrugged it off not sure what to say. Crying women was not his thing, even if they were very beautiful women like this girl was.
"Ma'am." Leo said and Bella turned and looked at his three brothers. She let her gaze run over them all and they were shocked when she gave them a small smile and never once seemed scared or freaked out by them.
"Sorry. I'm Isabella Swan. Bella for short." She said tucking some hair behind her ear.
"I'm Leonardo or Leo, These are my brothers. Donatello or Donnie, Michelangelo or Mickey and the one behind you is Raphael." Leo introduced and they all gave her a wave. She chuckled at Mickey he seemed just happy with life in general.
"Why do you think the Purple Dragon's are going to kill you?" Donnie ask and Bella frowned.
"What's a Purple Dragon?" she ask and they frowned.
"A large group of gang members that is running rapid through this city. The men I saved you from where Purple Dragon Members." Raphael told her and she nodded.
"I'm sorry. I'm new to New York. I've only been here a few weeks. They were chasing me because I just saw my boss and some of his guards murder a man in the back room of the bar I worked in." she told them and they nodded.
"Do you have somewhere safe we can take you?" Leo ask and she shook her head and wrapped her arms around her body, shivering in the cold.
"No, I'm here alone and I don't know anyone yet. My boss knows where I live so I don't think I can stay there now. Why does this always happen to me?" she ask herself and they all shared a look.
"Use to being saved by handsome turtles baby cakes?" Mickey ask her and she chuckled.
"Not exactly. Use to being saved by no human entities though." She said and they all wondered what she meant.
"Why aren't you freaked out by us?" Raphael ask her gruffly and Bella just shrugged.
"You're not the most unusual creatures I've met that's for sure. Plus you saved me and I feel safe with you which is odd for me since I hadn't felt safe in a long time." Bella said with a shrug.
The turtles weren't sure what to do as they watched the dark haired human walk over towards the ledge of the building and over look the city.
"I don't want to keep you any longer. Thank you gentlemen for helping." She said and Raph looked at Leo in alarm. No way in hell could he leave her to the purple dragons. Raph felt sick just thinking about it. Leo and Raph stared at each other for a while before Leo sighed and nodded.
"We're not going to leave you out here alone while you're being hunted. We'll take you back to our place with us. We can keep you safe there. We can take you to get your things first and then head to the lair. I'll go ahead and talk with Sensei about what's going on. You three go get her things." Leo ordered and before Bella could argue he was jumping to the next building and gone from her sight.
"That's not. I don't. I. I don't want you guys to have to do that. I don't want to cause you trouble." She told Raphael who just shook his head and walked closer towards her.
"You're not trouble. We wouldn't offer if we weren't sure. We couldn't live with ourselves if something happen to you because we left you up here unprotected. Please?" he said and she saw the other 2 nodding in agreement as Bella stared into Raph's eyes for a while before she nodded.
"Ok. I trust you. Don't make me regret it. Please." She told him and Raph had the feeling someone had hurt her badly in the past for her to fear trusting someone. He nodded and picked her up again and she told him where she was living.
When they arrived Raph was glad she was coming with him. She was living in a rent by the week motel and there was a drunk man passed out on the side walk. It was not a safe place.
"We'll keep watch. Pack fast." Donnie told them as he and Mickey went to the roof to keep watch as Raph led Bella into her room quickly and helped her pack. She didn't have much and within moments she was packed and ready and they met his brothers on the roof where they took her bags as Raphael carried Bella towards the sewer.
"Were going to need to blind fold you until Master Splinter says it's ok." Raphael told her and she nodded and closed her eyes and allowed him to gently place a blind fold on her face. She felt him jump down and she gasp as her stomach dropped before they were running again.
"Is your Sensei a turtle too?" she ask him as they ran and she felt him shake his head.
"He's a rat." He told her and she nodded.
"I had a pet Rat once when I was in middle school." She said and he chuckled as he slowed to a stop and she heard a large metal door slide open and then close and she was sat on her feet.
"Welcome to our crib girl." She heard Mickey's voice and she chuckled.
Raphael removed the blind fold and she looked around.
"Wow." She said as she took everything in. The water flowing in the room from the large pipe. Make shift furniture sitting around, a kitchen area and tons of computers along the wall of a cubbyhole.
"This is great." She said in awe and Raph was glad she liked it.
"Welcome to our home Miss. Swan." She heard and looked over to see an ageing Rat in a robe walking towards her. She smiled and shook his hand, which pleased him that she didn't mind touching them.
"Bella please. Thank you. I tried to tell them that I didn't want to impose I hate to think I'm a burden to your family now." she told him and he patted her cheek lovingly and pulled her with him towards the dojo.
"Non sense. I'm glad my son's offered you our home. It's nice to see them make a new friend. We tend to stay hidden and only have a few top side friends we can trust. I would have been up set to learn they left you up there in danger. Please have a seat and let's talk." Master Splinter told her and she nodded and sat on the pillow with him.
He told her of who they were and how they came to be. Told her about April, Casey and Vern there only other friends in the human world and about being Ninja's. She was amazed by their story and felt the need to tell them her own.
She told them about the Cullen's and the wolf pack and her parents being killed and then she told them about how to got to New York and started working at the club. They were amazed that she had dated a Vampire and best friend with a wolf before finding them.
"Wow. No wonder seeing us didn't shock you. Vampires and Wolves. That's impressive." Donnie told her and she blushed and shrugged.
"If you say so. I'd rather wished to never have met either of them really. Not after being betrayed twice." She said and they nodded in understanding.
"Well, you don't have to worry about that here. As Ninja's honor and loyalty are very important to us. We will not betray the gift you are giving in befriending us." Master Splinter said and the Turtle's all nodded in agreement.
"Now I'm sure you are tired from your day. My son will show you to your room. Raphael she will be your responsibility and will be rooming with you. If your both ok with that. Leonardo has already moved a spare mattress in the room." Master Splinter said and Raphael nodded as he helped her stand.
"I don't want to invade your space. I can take a couch or chair I don't mind really." She said and Raphael and Splinter both shook their heads no.
"We'd never ask a female to sleep on the couch. Come on. I don't mind." Raphael said and she nodded and followed behind them after saying good night to the others.
He took her up a set of small concrete steps and down a tunnel like hall and into a room. When Bella step inside she was shocked to see how homey and clean it was. There was a large California King that appeared to be new. Another smaller mattress for her off to the side piled with her blankets from her hotel room and some of theirs and a few pillows.
"I really am sorry about invading your space." She apologized again and he grunted.
"It's fine. I don't mind so stop apologizing." He said maybe a little too harshly but she didn't seem to mind she just bit her lip and nodded.
"You can use those 3 bottom drawers. There empty and bathroom's across the hall. Make yourself at home." He said and she nodded as he left to go talk to his brothers again.
She unpacked her things quickly, made her bed and went to shower throwing away her work clothes as she would have no use for them now. When she was done she tossed the towel into the hamper in the bathroom and made her way back to Raphael's room with her hair damp to see Raphael coming back towards her.
"You should let Donnie take a look at you. Make sure you're alright. Your Neck's pretty bruised." He said and she nodded and followed him back to Donnie's Lab.
"Hey have a seat." Donnie said scrambling nervously to make room for her on the chair. She chuckled and sat down as he scanned her with his goggles that apparently he created and could tell him things Doctors wished they knew. Bella was impressed.
"Does it hurt to swallow?" he ask probing her neck with one of his large fingers. She tried it and shook her head.
"Not anymore. It did right after but now it's fine." She said and he nodded fixing his glasses.
"Everything looks fine you just bruise easy." He told her and she blushed some but nodded.
"Yeah. I've always been like that. Cause I'm so pale." She said rubbing her arm and Raphael and Donnie looked down and saw a bite mark.
"What caused that?" Donnie ask looked down at it and she shrugged.
"Vampire bite." She said and they shared a look. She had survived a Vampire bite. Wow.
Later that night Bella woke with a start. She had a bad dream about the murder she witnessed and she set up gasping causing Raphael to wake as well.
"What's wrong?" he ask sleepily but concerned. She took a few deep breaths and sighed.
"Bad dream. I'm so sorry to wake you." She said and he huffed.
"Seriously stop apologizing. It's ok." He said and she nodded.
"Your safe here Bella. We won't let anything happen to you." He told her and she nodded again. Slipping back into sleep with one thought. Raph will keep her safe.
The next morning Bella woke up feeling much better and she actually woke up before Raph so she slipped out quietly and tip toed into the kitchen.
"How did you sleep?" she heard and gasp and spun around and laughed when she saw Leo sitting at the table with coffee in his hand.
"Better. I woke one from a bad dream but after that good. I thought as a way to start thanking you guys I could see if I could make you all breakfast." She said and Leo stared at her surprised for a moment before smiling.
"That would be very nice thank you. We keep it pretty stocked. But Bella. You don't need to do anything to thank us." He told her and she smiled and nodded.
"That's what Raphael keeps saying too. I can't help but feel like I need to though." She said and she nodded as he watched the human girl start moving around the kitchen finding everything quickly.
"Well I don't say this often but Raph's right." He said and she chuckled at the brother rivalry as she started cooking.
Leo offered to help but she refused wanting to do it alone as a thank you and Leo knew there would be no arguing with this women. She was hard headed he could tell but he enjoyed the smile she brought to his brother's face and she was a really sweet girl.
"What is that amazing smell?" Donnie ask coming out of his lab obviously having fallen asleep I there again as he saw what was going on.
"Bella is making us breakfast as a thank you." Leo said taking a sip of coffee. Donnie smiled as he got some coffee of his own and sat next to his brother to watch the girl flitter back and forth in their kitchen.
It didn't take long for Mickey and Raph to smell the food and Master Splinter came out to sit at the table as well when the smell of food reached him in his room. Bella was a little shy with them watching but she wanted to thank them and she did love to cook.
"What's going on here?" Raph ask as he sat at the table.
"Your girl wants to thank us by cooking breakfast." Leo whispered and he shot him a glare.
"Why are you just sitting here watching like she's a servant or something?" he hissed at his brothers and Leo rolled his eyes.
"Because she told us to. We offered to help but the woman is head strong like you. There was no changing her mind." Leo told him and Raph just hummed in thought and watched.
"Are you sure you don't want any help Bella?" Raphael ask her as she was stirring eggs and taking homemade biscuits out of the oven. His mouth was watering at how good everything looked and smelled but he didn't want her to think she had to do this.
"You can get plates out if you want and silverware. I'm almost done and I don't know what you all like to drink." She said and the boys all moved quickly to help her. Raphael got the plates as Leo got the silverware while Donnie and Mickey got out juice and coffee and cups for everyone and handed Sensei more tea. By the time they were done Bella was carrying plates of food and sitting them in the middle of the table. When she was done Raphael pulled her chair out and pointed for her to sit and eat too. No way in hell were they eating without her when she just spent all morning cooking them a delicious smelling meal.
"Sit and eat with us Bella. We will clean up." He told her and she nodded.
"It looks amazing Bella." Splinter told her and she blushed at the praise and thanked him. The boys let Bella get her food first and then Master Splinter. After they were done the 4 brothers descended and damn near inhaled the food. Bella was so pleased they loved her food and she felt like she was starting to thank them for what they are doing for her.
"Once you're done cleaning the kitchen meet in the dojo for training." Master Splinter told his son's.
"Yes Sensei." They all replied at the same time.
"Can I watch?" Bella ask him and he nodded.
"Of course my dear." He said before walking into the Dojo. Bella helped them clean even though they told her not too but like Leo said she was hard headed.
Bella sat off to the side as she watched the boys fight and she was amazed at their skills. She watched the whole time with her mouth open in shock. Raphael knew he was showing off some but he wanted Bella to be impressed and the look on her face told him she was.
"Wow that was amazing. You guys are awesome." She clapped when they bowed to Master Splinter who called training to a close. They all smiled at her praise.
"Just wow. I wish I knew a 10th of what you just did. Wow." She said standing and brushing off her pants and the boys shared a look.
"If you'd like to join in Miss Bella. I'd me happy to teach you as well." Splinter told her and she stared at him in shock.
"Seriously?" she said and he nodded. She squealed in delight and gave him a big hug she couldn't wait.
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
For the next week Bella had a new goal. To learn as much as she could from Splinter and the guys. She refused to be a weak human anymore and was more than glad to learn to be a ninja. Splinter even promised that if she could master this she could patrol with the guys and she was determined.
Raphael wasn't all that happy that she'd be putting herself in danger as a ninja but the happiness in her eyes when Splinter told her that made him bite his tongue. She really wanted this and he couldn't find it in his heart to take it from her he just promised himself he'd be at her side the whole time making sure she stayed safe.
She was learning very quickly too. Raphael remembers when they tried to teach April but her heart wasn't in it and she only learned a few basic's but Bella took to his with gusto. She like Donnie preferred the Bo staff and he created one for her much like his own only with pink handles.
A week after Bella had been a part of their family she finally got to meet April, Casey and Vern. They came over after training one day to meet the new member of the turtle lair and Bella was nervous.
She showered after their training and cleaned the lair to keep herself busy. Once she was done with that she started to fidget and Raphael chuckled from his place beside her on the couch where he was watching a movie with his brothers but Bella kept moving around and bouncing her leg it was distracting him.
"Will you calm down. It's not that big of a deal." Raphael told her placing his large hand on her bouncing knee. She gave him a funny little glare and rolled her eyes.
"It's a big deal to me. What if they hate me?" she said and Raphael snorted and then rolled his eyes while his brothers all chuckled.
"April will love you I'm 100% sure of that. Casey will probably flirt and I'll have to knock his teeth in for him. The human nerd will just go along with anything we tell him but he'll like you too so please stop freaking out." Raphael told her and she took a deep breath and tried to calm her nerves.
"Hey guys." they heard a female voice and Mickey jumped up and ran towards the pretty red head coming in the door with 2 human male's behind her.
"Angel cakes." Mickey yelled and hugged there friend and April just laughed and hugged him back.
"Swamp things." Casey yelled but Bella could tell he was just joking and the brother rolled their eyes but fist bumped him anyways. Raphael pulled Bella up to stand as they all hugged April and greeted Casey and Vern.
"Damn. And who is this?" Casey said giving Bella a once over as he walked towards her but Raphael's large hand on his shoulder stopped his progression.
"Don't even think about it Jones." He growled as April walked forward and hugged Bella.
"You must be Bella. I'm so glad to finally meet you." She said and Bella relaxed and hugged her back.
"Likewise." Bella told her when they parted.
"Bella this is April, Casey Jones and Vern." Donnie pointed out and the 2 guys waved at her not wanting to piss Raphael off who had glared them down before walking back over towards Bella.
"Well now that's over with. Who wants Pizza?" Mickey ask and they all laughed and Bella was glad the tension and nerves were gone. Raph was right. It was all going to be ok.
(well? Please be nice. Just getting the first part out. More to come as i figure this out. thanks)
