Venus quickly walked out of the lair, scared out of her mind. Raph has just picked another fight with her, yelling about how she had betrayed him and the family because of what she did. She shuddered, and began to walk towards the place that she was gonna meet Akira and Devon. She had called them and asked if they would take her with them when they fled out of the state. They had both agreed, and she was preparing to go.

She decided to take the shortest way possible to the hiding spot, and was surprised when she saw a figure standing in front of her. She froze when she saw who it was. "Shredder" she whispered, then began to walk slowly towards him, gripping the knife she had in her hand. He laughed and nodded at her, smiling.

"Hello, Mei, how've you been? I see you're brothers a little mad at you, isn't that to bad? He seems to have a little temper problem, wouldn't you agree? O well, I'm sure you were aware of it. I've come to ask that you give up these pathetic little games and come back with me to the clan. It's obvious you don't fit in with those losers anymore, but you could come back to us, we need you."

Venus looked at him for a second, then turned and ran, dropping a piece of paper on the ground. Shredder watched her go, then grabbed the sheet as it went by him. He was surprised to see his name on it, and the note that followed.

Dear lie

You suck

You said you could fix anything

Instead I'm fucked

You made things even worse for me

If I had balls I'd tell you get away from me

Guess I'm not smart

I let you unnerve me

I let you control me

Afraid the truth would hurt me

When it's you that hurts me more

Get outta my mouth

Get outta my head

Get outta my mind

Stop puttin' words in my head

Get outta my mouth

You're nothing but trouble

Get outta my life

Get out of me

Out of me (out of me)

Out of me

Out of me lie

Lie lie lie lie

Dear lie

You're dumb

You think you've got the best of me

You think you won

Misread my vulnerability

I've got your walls

Now get the hell away from me

I've learned your art

Won't let you unnerve me

Won't let you control me

The truth will only free me

And your lies won't hurt no

No more

Lie lie

I've got

Your walls

Now get the hell away from me

I learned your art

Won't let you unnerve me

Wont' let you control me

The truth will only free me

And your lies won't hurt no

No more

Shredder finished the note, then crumbled it and threw it away, vowing on day he would get her back.
