Author's Note: Ok I am writing a sequel to this story but before I put that story up. I decided to fix all my mistakes with this story, add in more detail to make it more interesting (I hope), and change the title to better fit with the story. As soon as I have the updated version of this story out, I will start putting up the sequel, Conspiracy II: The Aftermath. And as you all know that I don't own the tmnt!
Ch.1 - Escape
Freedom. That was the only thing on her mind as she ran towards the 10ft barbed wire fence away from everything that she knew. Away from all the scientists who injected her with all those chemicals and made her do all those tests. Never again would she be used as someone's lab rat. She would get away this time. She didn't care if she made it out alive or not as long as she escaped.
She was almost to the fence when she felt a sharp pain in her right thigh. She fell and landed in a huge puddle of mud. Glancing over her shoulder as she got up she saw some security guards running after her with guns. Then she realized that they'd had probably shot her. A mere gunshot wound was not going to keep her from her goal. So she got up and started running again, this time with a slight limp as she fought the pain in her leg.
At last she made it to the fence that had been built to keep her in. It was a 10ft tall barbed wire fence that encircled the whole building complex with only one opening at the front. This was heavily guarded all the time just so she couldn't escape. Though they never figured she'd actually try to climb over the fence.
However she did and made it. But now she had bad cuts all over from the fence. She knew that just because she'd made it past the fence it didn't mean that she was safe so she kept on running.
She ran down many alleys and streets only looking behind her a few times to see that the guards chasing her were starting to catch up to her. Thanks to the gunshot wound in her leg. She ducked behind another alley where she noticed a manhole cover. Realizing that they would eventually catch up to her if she kept running, she lifted the manhole cover off and climbed down into the sewers, replacing the cover back to cover up her tracks. She ran or heavily limped at this point down the sewers, not really caring where she ended up. At last the pain in her leg grew too strong and she collapsed.
Whhrrreee-whhrreee! The sound of an alarm going off echoed through the halls of the building complex. Inside the monitoring room, a bald middle-aged man looked frantically at the screen while shouting at the people responsible for watching the monitors.
"How could you people let her escape! Do you have any ideas what this means!" He yelled.
"We're sorry sir, if we had any idea that she'd be able to find the cameras so quickly—"
"Well she did and because you all just had to take a coffee break at the moment, you gave her more time to get away! You better hope that Lt. Nitwite and his team are successful at recovering her or else," He said through his teeth while just inches away from the younger man's face.
"I still don't get why we have to practice so hard everyday" A mutant turtle with a red bandana said. The turtle in blue, who had been doing some martial arts moves, stopped and turned to face the red one, and said, "A true ninja is always prepared"
"I am prepared! Shredder's dead and the foot are gone! It's been that way for 3 years now" The red one yelled back at the blue.
"You won't be prepared if you don't practice, Raph" The turtle in blue sharply said as he was getting quite annoyed with his hot-head brother.
"That doesn't mean we gotta overdo ourselves, Leo" Raph shouted at the turtle in blue.
During this whole fight the other two turtles, one in orange and another in purple, just stood there watching the other two while trying to stay out of the way. Although they were prepared in case a fight broke out between the two eldest brothers.
"We have to be prepared for anything. You don't know what new enemy could rise" Leo angrily said at Raph while glaring at him.
"Fine! You go practice to your heart's content! I'm outta here" Raph yelled as he grabbed his trench coat and hat and left before his older brother could get in another word.
I know us ninjas have to be prepared but Leo's going about it all wrong. The way he makes us practice, if a new enemy did come, we'd be too tired to fight! All I'm saying is that he tone down the intensity a bit. And of course he refuses to accept the idea that I may be right! Maybe when Splinter gets back tonight from his vacation in Japan, he'll set Leo straight.
Had the turtle not been so engrossed in his own thoughts, he would've noticed the young female lying in the sewers before he tripped over her.
"Geez! What the hell" He yelled as he quickly got up and looked to see what he had tripped over.
"What's she doing down here" He asked himself as he saw that he had tripped over a young female probably in her twenties or so. She had golden brown hair which was tangled up and went past her shoulders a bit. She had on a pair of blue scrubs and she was pretty dirty and bloodied up. Knowing that she needed help he picked up and made his way back to the lair. It was when he picked her up that he noticed that she'd been shot.
"Who the hell would shot a girl who obviously just came from the hospital" Raph muttered to himself since he assumed that she probably had just been released from a hospital when she ran into some trouble and got trouble. Little did he know that his theory couldn't be farther from the actual truth.
