Hello everyone, I just wanted to say sorry for the long wait for the prologue, I just had too much to think about when trying to think about some ideas. I have too much to think about and even need sometime to plan which episodes of TLH and stories of TMNT to adapt here, so until I work it out, this story may take a while.
I would also like to give credit to writeroffanfiction (From Tumblr) for helping make this into literacy format and writing some of the dialouge.
"Prologue"
3 MONTHS AGO
It was a sunny day in the Big Apple, it all started casually at the moment with nothing really special going on until the Channel Six News came on and the news anchor lady with a yellow suit and brown hair with a ponytail, Catherine Savino, was making a report about the recent crime activity:
"So far, there have been more reports of disturbances and theft in our fair city. These are obviously much more than just a series of small, isolated incidents. It's apparent that an organized criminal element is at work, and at the moment, business is good. So good, in fact, there appear to be no eyewitnesses to any of these crimes. With complaints ranging from purse-snatching to breaking and entering, police switchboards have been swamped with the angry voices of more and more citizens, who have fallen prey to the recent surge of crime that continues to plague the city."
It then shows a bunch thugs taking in a bunch of departed goods away from a truck and onto their getaway truck.
"Instead of getting better, things have gotten worse. Even more alarming is the baffling and often bizarre nature of these crimes. From my research, I've found that merchandise of every size and description, from phones and televisions, any many other electronic appliances have been disappearing from store shelves and storage areas at an alarming rate. Even the victims themselves rarely glimpse the thieves. Sometimes people don't even know they've been robbed until it's too late. In fact, it seems that police don't even have any eyewitnesses yet; only a few reports of young boys or teenagers to the scenes have been filed."
A man reading the newspaper was pickpocketed by a young teen but didn't notice it. The wallet switches hands and other crimes are happening throughout the city. A man delivering packages helps unload one of the boxes but as soon as he turns to the truck everything is gone. A middle-aged black woman turns away from her TV to pick up something and it's pulled off the balcony, the only thing she sees is a teenager running away.
"But whoever is behind these crimes, one thing is certain; these are much more than just a series of random incidents. Who are we gonna call? Unfortunately, the police are the only ones available to help fight off what people are now calling 'The Silent Crime Wave'. But maybe the most disturbing silence is that coming from City Hall. This is Catherine Savino on channel Six News"
Meanwhile, there was a van in the middle of the Manhattan driving around. Inside the van contained a family of 13 people; 1 father, 1 mother, 10 sisters, and a brother.
The mother was named Rita Loud, who wears a pink shirt with a white collar and cuffs and purple pants and has big blonde hair. She was concerned about their new home. "I still can't believe that you had to get a job transfer here at Manhattan. Do you know what kind of street crimes happen here both day and night?" said Rita.
"I know, I really hate to move." A brown haired man in a green sweater, plaid cuffs, and collar, and khaki pants named Lynn Sr told his wife.
A white-haired eleven years old named Lincoln Loud wearing an orange shirt and jeans muttered he was the only brother in the Loud family and display's an interest in video games and comic books: "I rather do that than live here."
"Do what, little bro?", asked Luna Loud, who wears a purple t-shirt with a skull, torn crew neck and triangular sleeves, and a plaid skirt. She had a passion for music, especially Rock 'N' Roll. She is the closest to her brother and a role model big sister to him as well.
The boy told her, in a tone rather bitter "Move back, I didn't want to leave to a new city and leave my friends behind back at Michigan."
The girls and the parents looked rather worried considering when they moved Lincoln had too many things behind. Lynn Sr. intervene, "Son, I know you don't like this but look on the bright side you'll make new friends, experience new things and—"
Lincoln interrupted his father by saying "And getting mugged or robbed?" The rest of the sentence died in his father's voice.
"C'mon Linky, I don't think it will be totes bad. Like, I'm looking forward to seeing all the tall buildings, the clothes and shoe stores, the malls, and this big apple that everyone keeps talking about. Hopefully, we get to taste it!" said Leni Loud, who is kind-hearted, but also not very bright. She wears sunglasses and had a sea foam green dress. Like Luna, she was also closest to her brother. "Now can you please show us that adorable little smile of yours again?" She asked.
"I'm not THAT adorable," muttered Lincoln.
"I'm looking forward to the stand-ups, some of the greats performed here. Just remember when it comes to crimes in New York, try not to get city reckless! Ha! Ha! Get it?!" A girl with brown hair and a ponytail in a white shirt and yellow plaid skirt, with a flower on the shirt, told her brother. This is Luan Loud the resident jokester of the family but she tends to either go overboard or the puns fall flat. The rest of the family groaned at her joke except for Lynn Sr.
"Well I for once side with Lincoln, It's unbelievable that we had to move out into the city, I LITERALLY had to leave all my friends, my school, my good old life!" said Lori Loud, who is the oldest sibling in the family. While sometimes pushy and abrasive, is truly a caring sister, and leader at heart.
"How do think I feel. The lawsh in New York City will make it impossible to get the materialsh for my experimentsh!" A four-year-old with huge glasses wearing a light green sweater and purple pants complained to her older sister. That's Lisa Loud she's the brains of the family although she's four and sometimes slightly obsessed with the pursuit of science.
"But aren't you excited about living in the city with the largest sewer system? I mean, it comes in handy for your science stuff, especially with you poop studies! I just wanna chance to explore it!" The six-year-old twin excitedly stated. Her name was Lana Loud, she was a tomboy who liked animals and getting messy. She wears a red baseball cap backward, white sneakers with blue stripes, and a murky green t-shirt under dark blue overalls.
"Puh-lease as if any would want to live in the trash capital!" A blonde girl wearing a pink glittery dress and a tiara complained. That prima-donna was Lola Loud the princess and spoiled brat of the Loud family. Though she does have her moments of kindness.
"Poo-poo, ee lak nuv yak!" The babbling came from the youngest sibling Lily Loud. She was just a baby but she loves her entire family and could understand them somewhat.
"I like the city at night." A black haired girl wearing a black dress, her bang's covering her eyes. "AAH!" The entire family jumped at her entrance. This goth gal is Lucy Loud the dark influence of the Louds with a love of the supernatural especially vampires "All the buildings in the dark reminded me of old castles, especially the ones with the gargoyle statues."
Then the girl with a red and white sports shirt and brown hair with a ponytail has a baseball bat with her. "Whatever you say spooky, I'm hoping to actually meet some sports teams like the New York Yankees!" Her name was Lynn Loud Jr., and she was into anything sports related.
"Now we all know it's a big change for us, it's hard but good. And you kids are going to love our new home, we're almost there" said Lynn Sr. Just as he said it, the Vanzilla broke down like it usually does.
"This is why we should get a new car," Rita told her husband who wore a sheepish look. They realized that Vanzilla broke down in a rather shady part of New York.
Lana grabbed her toolbelt with a determined look, "Don't worry guys, I'll see what I can do about the engine! If not, we're pushing her!"
"And the moving truck will beat to the house." groaned Lynn Sr.
Lori looked worried, "Still, why did we have to stop in one of the darkest places in Manhattan!"
Unfortunately, they didn't notice a group of teens was slowly walking towards, all of them screaming trouble. The led teen, wearing a red vest, black shirt and ripped jeans asked.
"You folks need some help?"
The Loud Family turned around to see them and all of them were soaked with nervousness. "Ummmm, that's okay! We got everything under control here!" Lincoln stated nervously.
Rita then intervened, "Shouldn't you kids be back home with your families at this time?!"
A bigger teen, wearing a muscle shirt and shorts, just leaned against Vanzilla and told them."Come on we love helping people out." Another teen wearing a blazer and kakhis answered: "Oh, they won't mind especially if we bring them something." The teen brought out a knife and the other teens followed his suit.
Lynn Sr. gulped at this, along with the rest of the family, knowing that they are in deep trouble, "Muggers! Alright look we don't want any trouble, just stay back before we get the authorities involved."
But Leni stated, "But why dad? They just offered us a free knife." The rest of the Louds facepalmed at Leni's comment.
The teens just laughed at what he said. "Pops, you haven't noticed the authorities are too busy with other things. Anyone want the dumb one?" The larger teen raised his hand "I always liked how she smelled." The Loud family began to shake in fear what the teens would do to them.
The larger teen was approaching Leni, but Lincoln went right in front of her and told the teen off, "Don't you dare lay a hand on my sister, or you're gonna be sorry!"
"KILL THE LIGHTS!" yelled the mysterious figure. Just then a sai was thrown at light pole making the whole are pitch black. Soon screams and punches were heard making the Louds completely scared.
Soon, sirens were heard and the police arrive at the scene with them holding flashlights and sees the group of teens beaten to the ground and all tied up.
The Loud Family was rather surprised by all work that had been done, even Lucy was amazed by the occurrence. "What just happened?"
Lincoln stated, "I have no idea."
They all decided to go back to the Vanzilla to check the engine but was surprised by the fact that it had already been fixed. Lana was astounded by all the handiwork, "Woah, the girl just magically fix herself!"
All the Louds saw the work and were amazed as well. "Ohmygosh, our van is magic!" stated Leni.
For the Louds, it was like a miracle. But what they didn't notice was a 3 fingered hand coming out from under the manhole cover to retrieve the sai that was thrown without anyone looking.
Soon, after driving down the street they stop at the two-story brick house. "Guys welcome to our new home. Most of you'll still have to share a room but there are two bathrooms."
After getting out and start to unload Vanzilla they see a redheaded teenage girl with a ponytail wearing a yellow jersey like shirt with the number 5 and wearing red pants; and even though she was still young, she had a very curvy figure, most noticeably her buxom chest. She was riding her bicycle and stopped when she saw that there were some new neighbors, "Are you the new neighbors who bought this house?"
Some of the older Loud sisters noticed her assets and quickly became a little jealous, while Lincoln was lovestruck. He had never seen a girl that looked so beautiful and angelic, her voice was even heartwarming every time she spoke. With a dreamy tone, he answered. "Yes, and you beautiful angel?"
She blushed by her question and even giggled before she answered, though she was rather shy by looks she was getting by the sisters. "My name is April, April O'Neil." She then bent down to Lincoln, "And who might you be cute little boy?"
Lincoln blushed by April's compliment and making him shy as well. Lori then rudely separates them and tells April "His name's Lincoln."
April didn't flinch from that, considering she's used to this and asks "And you are?"
Lori states "Lori, Lori Loud, he's my brother and the rest are my sisters." She continues to look at April's chest area seeing how big it is and reluctantly asks, "So you seem…..young, how old are you exactly?"
"Oh, only 15." Lori's jaw dropped along with the older siblings and their jealousy grew even more. "So you have a big family must be crazy?" April asked trying to dissolve the tension.
While the older siblings were still trying to process, Rita intervened, "Yeah, we get pretty rowdy at times and things get chaotic, but we manage." Rita then decides to get to know April a little more "So what about you dear, you live around here?"
"No, just a couple blocks down with my family." This peaked the interest of the Loud siblings considering they didn't see any other kids on the block. "I mean, I live with my dad, and four brothers."
Lincoln was astounded about April's mention of her family. "No way, so you're the only sister?
"Yeah, pretty much."
"So what's yours like?" Luna asked.
April was looking nervous and wanted to choose the right words to answer with, "Oh…believe me, my family….is unbelievable."
Meanwhile, deep within the sewers of Manhattan, noises were heard. Another was heard as if someone clicks on something. Soon music started to play and it was a famous song from 1974 by David Bowie called "Rebel, Rebel":
"Rebel, Rebel"
Doo doo doo-doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo-doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo-doo doo doo doo doo
You've got your mother in a whirl
She's not sure if you're a boy or a girl
Hey babe, your hair's alright
Hey babe, let's go out tonight
You like me, and I like it all
We like dancing and we look divine
You love bands when they're playing hard
You want more and you want it fast
They put you down, they say I'm wrong
You tacky thing, you put them on
Rebel Rebel, you've torn your dress
Rebel Rebel, your face is a mess
Rebel Rebel, how could they know?
Hot tramp, I love you so!
Don't ya?
Doo doo doo-doo doo doo doo doo
You've got your mother in a whirl 'cause she's
Not sure if you're a boy or a girl
Hey babe, your hair's alright
Hey babe, let's stay out tonight
You like me, and I like it all
We like dancing and we look divine
You love bands when they're playing hard
You want more and you want it fast
They put you down, they say I'm wrong
You tacky thing, you put them on
Rebel Rebel, you've torn your dress
Rebel Rebel, your face is a mess
Rebel Rebel, how could they know?
Hot tramp, I love you so!…(continues in backround)
"That was awesome! I can't believe we did that under 3 minutes!"
This sounded like a group of people that we're celebrating their first victory ever. They even sounded young as if they were teenagers, which they are, but they actually turn out to also be something stranger and not even human, they've revealed to be giant humanoid talking turtles!
"Man how dope was that!?" The turtle asked wearing an orange bandana while running with three other humanoid turtles. His name was Michelangelo and he was a gullible yet lovable turtle who wielded the nunchaku and his sides. He also had stickers around his shell and had an "M" intial on his belt buckle.
"I more amazed at the fact that Donnie didn't shut down at the sight of a girl." The one red joked to the expense of his brother in purple. His name is Raphael, and he wielded the sais on the back of his shell. He was known to be the cool but crude guy who packs the most muscle. He has a pretty violent temper and always taunts with sarcasm and teasing. He looked like he had plenty of cracks on his shell and scars on his scales, and even had a bone sticking out from his left shoulder.
"They were in trouble that's all. Besides, it's a good thing none of them saw me." The one who defended and wore the purple mask is Donatello, he wielded the bo staff, which had a blade on one end. He is a scientific genius with an IQ over 600, but he was a very nervous, timid, and kind of a clean freak. He also possessed gynophobia (fear of females), but is still used to April.
Just then the turtle in the blue mask named Leonardo, who was the leader of the four turtles wielded the katana blades on the back of his shell. He was also the one who was most familiar with Japanese culture and is a major music fan. He was the one who even played the song by Bowie. "If you didn't want to stick around for them to see you, then why were you willing to haul his ass around back there to fix their van, what were you thinking?!"
"That van was an almost new 1957 Volkswagen van, I can't let something like that gets sent to the junkyard." Donnie, the one who does machines, answered.
"There are plenty of "special" vans back in the junkyard! You should've just let them handle it so we wouldn't risk being caught!" Leo retorted.
"And you guys always called me the clumsy one!" Mikey stated. "But still, shouldn't we be worried about the fact that we didn't tell Sensei we were going out?" his brothers' faces grew scared and worried looks about telling their Sensei about their little adventure.
"Damn! Maybe we can get April to cover for us! Otherwise, we'd be going back to the Hashi!" Raph suggested.
"We mainly end up in the Hashi because of you!" Leo told Raph. After running down the sewers they stop at a large area and quietly tried to put back everything the way it was unfortunate they were arguing most of the time.
Donnie had a vexed tone when he asked, "Seriously Mikey, you need to stop making a mess here with your marshmallow and sausage pizzas!"
"Don't hate on my wonderful creations!" With all their arguing and making noise they didn't notice that one of the doors in the area opened.
They only knew of it when a tail launched out of the dark and wrapped around Raph's neck. "So, you are all up, can someone explain?" the tall rat had asked the four turtles. He is Master Splinter, he wears a red and black robe and carries around a stick. He is a highly trained ninjutsu master and adoptive father of the turtles and April.
Leo started to plead, "Sensei, please. We're just watching a—"
Splinters' tail then quickly jabbed Leo in the gut. "Ah, look Mikeys' sleepwalking totally sleepwalking." Splinters' tail knocking him off his feet.
"Anyone?" Splinter was still waiting for an answer, but no response. So he has decided the appropriate action, "Very well, into the Hashi!" They all groaned.
Author's Notes:
As an apology for the long wait, I will reveal some stuff.
This prologue is based on scenes from the 1990 and 2014 TMNT movies.
writeroffanfiction's character Drooler will be in this series.
The ironic relationship between the turtles and the Louds I was talking about is going to be Donnie/Leni.
I plan to have Slash originally be a pet of Lana's named Snaps.
