Author's Notes:

Here's my latest chapter. I want to point something out real quick. Buffy's boss in my fic is named Sall. However, in chapter five his name is Billy at the start of it. Sorry about that. I don't know why I had him named Billy. I guess I was watching LOTR: Special Edition, when Billy Boyd was doing interview when I was writing that chapter. LOL! Sorry, I'll try to fix it when I can. I just want to go ahead and this fic over with so I can work on some other ones. I don't like to work on more then one multi chapter fic because I usually can't finish one of them. Hope that makes sense. Enjoy the chapter!

Sailor Vegeta: Loving your reviews! It's nice to know I have a few reviews that like my fics. LOL! Anyway, I couldn't help but put that line in about the turtles having their own comics or movies. Love to add lines like that in fics. It's fun. :)

danceingfae: Another great reviewer. Buffy's secret will come out soon. I don't know if it will be in this chapter or in one of the following chapters. Btw: I laughed when you called Buffy Sydney. LOL! Oh well, ten to one I'll probably call her that when I watch some of the eppys that I have on tape. LOL!

Raphaella: Hey, thanks for the review! I know how computers are. Mine can be a real pain in the arse at times.

Chapter Fourteen: Newsflash:

A few weeks later...

Buffy ended up loving the turtles and Splinter after she learned about them. She loved them like brothers and Splinter ended up being like a father to her. It was weird she had to admit, but she didn't mind at all.

The turtles ended up loving her back. What they loved most about her was the fact that she worked at Pizza Palace. So, everyday after work she would bring them a pizza.

At the moment, Buffy was heading down to the den. She had just got done from work and she couldn't be happier. One, the day was over with, and two, she received her first paycheck. She had went to the bank and came back to the Pizza Palace to by two pizzas for her and the turtles.

Sall, her boss joked with her before she left to with the pizzas. "Man, you might beat April for best costumer and you work here."

Buffy thanked him for her paycheck and the pizzas before she left. She was glad she was working at a place where the people were actually nice. Buffy left the Pizza Palace and made it to the den a few minutes later.

"Hey guys!" Buffy called as she entered the den. "I brought ya'll some pie!"

"That's music to my ears!" replied Mikey as he came to greet her and immediately took the pizza boxes from her.

"Thanks Mikey." she told him with a laugh.

Buffy loved Mikey because of his humor. He always could make her laugh. As much as she hated to admit this, he reminded her of Xander. However, she soon put that thought in the back of her mind.

"Hey Sydney," Donnie said as he walked up to her. "I'm guessing Mikey got the pizza?"

"Yup." she answered. "Where are the others?"

"Well, Venus and Leo are up top visiting Casey. April had to work late. Raph should be out in a minute, and Splinter is meditating."

"I see." she replied. "I hope he doesn't mind the pizza. I should have stopped at the

Japanese restaurant or something."

"That is all right my child." Splinter's voice came up from behind them.

Buffy jumped. "Oh, okay. You don't mind pizza then?"

"Not at all," he answered. "Once you've lived with these turtles you learn to love it."

"Hey Sydney, do you want a slice?" asked Mikey who was now in the kitchen.

"Sure. Why not?" she answered. "I'm starving!"

Buffy, Donnie, and Splinter made their way into the living room. Mikey then came out with a few plates that were filled with pizza slices. "Uh, guys? A little help."

Buffy and Donnie laughed. The two went and helped Mikey out. Buffy and Donnie placed the plates on the table that was in front of the sofa. Mikey handed Splinter a plate before he made himself comfortable on a nearby chair. Raph soon came out and joined them. He said:

"Hi," to Buffy before he made himself comfortable on the floor next to Splinter.

"Hey guys," Raph said. "Turn on the tube. April is about to come on."

Mikey turned on the TV and the news just came on. April could be seen sitting behind a desk. She began her report.

"Hello, I'm April O' Neil of Channel Three news, and we have a major newsflash for everyone." April said to the TV audience. "There has been a murder in Central Park. The victim was a teenager. The teenage was killed by two wounds to the neck..."

Buffy ignored the rest of what April was saying. Did she hear her right? Two wounds to the neck? That could only mean one thing: vampire.

"Man, not here." Buffy said under her breath.

"What did you say Syd?" asked Raph.

"Nothing!" she answered quickly. "I was just mumbling to myself."

"Oh, okay," replied Raph, and he went back to watching the TV.

Got to be more careful, Buffy thought. I need to check that victim's body out. She then turned back to the TV to finish watching April's report. "...There were some eye witnessed and one witness said that the wound looked like a really gross hicky..."

A few minutes later, the report was over. Mikey turned it off. "Well, that was a nice report."

Raph then said: "What do you think Master? Should we check this out?"

"No," he answered. "It's best to leave this one up to the above world. I don't want you or the others to get hurt." Splinter continued. "In fact, we should go get Venus and Leo."

That's when Buffy said: "I'll go get them Splinter. I need to be heading back anyway."

"All right," he answered. "Someone should go with you. Just to be on the safe side."

Buffy wanted to argue but she knew better then to mess with Splinter. "I'll go." Raph said first.

"Me too." Mikey replied.

They were all shocked when he said he wanted to go. "What? I can kick some serious shell you know." Mikey said to them as he notice they were all looking at him oddly. "Plus, Syd was nice enough to bring back enough an extra pizza."

"Okay, and I'll stay with Splinter." said Donnie. "Even though I know he could probably beat the crap out of anyone."

Buffy, Mikey, and Raph got up from where they were sitting and headed for the door. Before they were out of the den, Splinter told Buffy: "Sydney, please call us when Raph and Mikey leave. You can never be too careful."

"Yes Master Splinter." she replied. Then she, Mikey, and Raph made it out of the den.

In Casey and April's apartment, Leo, Venus, and Casey just turned off the TV. April's report had just gone off.

"I hope they catch this killer who's on the lose." Venus said.

"I'm sure they will." replied Casey, but he sounded doubtful. "I think I better go to the Channel 3 station and pick up April. Just to be on the safe side."

"We understand." Leo told him. "We better get back to the den."

The three were about to leave when they heard a knock at the door. Casey went to the door, and answered it. "Hey Sydney, what are you doing? Did you hear the report? It's not safe to be out."

"Don't worry. I had protection." she said to him as she pointed at the window.

Casey turned to the window and Mikey and Raph were coming in. When they were in, Raph said to Leo and Venus: "All right you two love birds, Splinter said you need to be back at the den."

"Okay, let's go." he said. Before he and the others left, he turned to Casey. "Call us when you and April get back here. We want to know if you guys come home all right."

"No problem," Casey replied. "You guys know your way out." with that said, he left.

Buffy was still in his apartment along with the turtles. "Well, I'm going too." she said to them.

"Thanks Raph and Mikey. I owe you one."

"Nah, don't worry about it." said Raph.

"Says you," Mikey told them. "How about you owe us a pizza?"

Buffy laughed. "Sure. No problem." she said. "See ya." Buffy left.

The turtles left a few minutes after Buffy did. They were heading out the window back down to the den. However, Raph stopped them.

"Hey, what's the hold up?" asked Mikey.

"Guys, I think I'm going to watch Syd for awhile." he answered Mikey. Raph turned to the others. "I got this weird feeling." It was true. He did have a weird feeling. Raph couldn't tell if it was a good kind of weird or a bad kind.

Leo rolled his eyes. "You're just saying that because you're starting to like her."

"I do not!" Raph yelled at him.

"Oh really?" asked Leo. "Well, if I remember correctly this is what you did with April when you started to like her!"

"Leo!" Venus hissed. "Enough! Both of you!" she continued. Venus turned to Raph. "Raph, if you feel you should stay, you should stay." Then she turned back to Leo. "We are going to talk when we get back to the den."

"Someone is trouble." teased Mikey.

"Yeah, and that someone is going to be you if you don't shut it!" Leo warned.

Mike went silent. "C'mon guys," Donnie replied. "Let's get back to the den." he turned to

Raph. "What should we tell Splinter?"

"Tell him the truth." answered Raph. "Like I said, I have a weird feeling. Tell him I'll come back as soon as I know Syd is safe."

They agreed. Well, all but Leo but he couldn't do anything about it. Raph watched as his brothers disappeared in the shadows. When they were out of sight, he made his way back to Sydney's apartment. He watched her from the window. Raph made sure he was out of sight.

Inside Buffy's apartment, Buffy was so angry she could scream. She had to deal with vampires in Sunnydale. Now, they were in New York. It's not fair! Buffy thought.

Buffy then knew there was only one thing she could do. She had to stop them. Buffy knew she couldn't run from her destiny. She thanked the Gods that she packed some Slayer weapons.

Outside, Raph watched as Buffy went to an old trunk that was in her living room. Raph watched her open it and pull out some strange objects. Stakes, crosses, and veils of water. What the hell? Raph thought. He then watched as Buffy put the objects in a small book bag that she had got. Then before he could blink, Buffy was out of the apartment.

"Now, where is she going?" There was only one way to find out. He was going to follow her.

Below, the others made it back to the den. Splinter noticed that Raph wasn't with them. "Where is Raphael?"

"He's still at Sydney's." answered Leo. There was annoyance in his voice.

"Why?" Splinter asked.

"Because he had a weird feeling and he wanted to stay to make sure she was safe." answered Donnie.

"Well, I hope he makes it home soon." Splinter replied.

Above, Raph had followed Buffy into Central Park. He had no idea why she wanted to be here. After all a murder was on the lose.

Buffy made her way to the murder scene. The police were gone, and no one was around. She walked around the murder scene awhile, and at first she didn't sense any vampires but a few minutes later, she sensed them.

Buffy was not going to put up with this. "Okay, you blood sucking creeps from beyond the grave! Show yourself so I can stake you and get it over with it!"

A few random vampires came from out of the darkness. They smirked at her. "It's about time we met Slayer." one of them said.

"Oh please," Buffy told the vampire. "Get over yourself and let's deal with this."

"Fine by us."

The vamps charged at Buffy and it became a full out battle between the Slayer and the undead. "I can't believe you things are here!" she hissed at them. Punch! Kick! Stake! "I mean I come here to live a normal life!" More kicks and punches! "But no! You things can't leave me alone at all can you?"

There was only more left. Buffy was going to have fun with this one. "You guys really tick me off!" with that said: she punched, kicked, flipped, and finally staked. "Another one bites the dust." she sang happily as she washed the vampire's ashes fly away with the night wind.

"Now, that's over with..." Buffy said to herself. "I can go back to being Sydney."

She started to walk back to her apartment, when she felt that someone or something was watching her. It wasn't a vampire. Buffy knew that for certain. She stopped and said: "Who's ever here, show yourself!"

Raph came out of the darkness and Buffy couldn't believe he was there. "Raph, how long have you been there?"

"Long enough." he answered. "Could you tell me what the hell just happened?"

"I... uh..." Buffy didn't know how to answer him. She was in trouble. Buffy had some explaining to do.
