Here With Me
Chapter IX: Medicine Girl

"Are you sure this is Mai Li's house?" Michaelangelo slid open the door.
Donatello gave him a look. "Yes. Mai Li said this was her house and this is where the dragons are." Donatello showed him the tracker.
"Are you sure it's working right?" Michaelangelo sassed. "I don't see Suki or dragons."
"Yes." Donatello rolled his eyes.
"Will the two of you shut up?" Leonardo demanded. "I hear something."
Leonardo, Donatello, Michaelangelo, and Mondo Gecko quietly walked into Mai Li's home.
***********************************************
"Found them." Katina turned to the Rank. "Where's the list my aunt gave you?"
"Here Princess." He bowed and handed her the list.
"Alright, I need rhubarb, wormwood leaves, tiger blood, and panda bones."
Katina searched through the collection of Chinese medicines and herbs. Some of the stuff made her sick. Maybe her father should just take Advil like the humans on TV do.
Katina picked up three jars of the ingredients she needed and placed them in the deep pockets of her robes. Hopefully, none of them will break.
**********************************************
"Alright." Mondo Gecko looked around Mai Li's house. "Is this Mai Li lady some sort of a witch or something."
"She's a shaman." Michaelangelo informed him. "Like Venus."
"Oh." Even Venus, sometimes gave him the creeps Mondo Gecko thought to himself.
"They're in there Leo." Donatello pointed to the kitchen door.
Leonardo cracked the door and looked in.
"Last one." Katina said as she stood up with a jar of wormwood leaves.
"I think not." Leonardo said as he slid the door completely open. "Don't you know it's rude to enter in someone else's home without being invited."
"Funny you should said that." The hooded Katina snapped back at him and slipped the jar into her pocket.
Leonardo looked at the hood figure before him. She wasn't well guarded. Guess Tashina wasn't as good of a prophetess as Venus claimed she was.
Katina signaled her guards to attack. Leonardo signaled the others to attack, he was going for Tashina.
Leonardo advanced with his katana in hand. "Tashina. You're mine."
"That's fine with me." Katina dodged a few kicks. She spun around and grabbed his leg. Then, she twisted it sending him down on the floor. "But, the name's Kat."
Leonardo felt embarrassed and jumped up even though his ankle was hurting him. He kicked her in the stomach and ripped of her hood before throwing her down onto the floor.
Leonardo looked at the once hidden assailant. She was beautiful. Her hair was long, black with a slight curl to it. She looked almost human, nothing like the Dragon Lord or the Rank. He began to feel sorry for her. She looked hurt.
Leonardo stepped closer to her. She looked at him through her long black locks of hair. Closer. Closer. He took one more step closer and she made her move.
Leonardo fell on his back. He wasn't sorry for her any more. She had just pulled his feet from under him. Now, she was going to get it.
He jumped back on his feet and looked at her. She stood with out moving a muscle. He decided try another move on her, but before he could get her she disappeared. Leonardo couldn't stop himself and went straight through the wall.
Katina reappeared and gave him a smile. He was kind of cute for the enemy. She called her guards and the three of them disappeared from sight.
"Where'd they go?" Mondo exclaimed.
"There gone." Donatello looked at his tracker.
Leonardo sat on the floor disgusted. "Along with the medicines they stole."
"Damn."
"You OK Leo." Donatello noted as her helped his brother up.
"My ankle. It's trobbing."
"Come on let's get back to Splinter."
