Sorry about the long wait for this chapter i am trying to get my webpage up and running. Please read and review!
Stunned didn't quite cover her reaction. Her mind had barely registered the shock when he reached down a plucked off the ground like a small child. He chuckled at her stunned response " Well what have we here" He questioned in a mock tone " It's a little ninja" He laughed loudly at his own crappy joke.
Ninja? No not really she hadn't been training long enough for that but there was one thing she had learned from an early age to protect her self from the bigger kids. A large smile slowly spread across her face as the though came to her, she pulled her leg back and kicked out at him as hard as she could and like all men who've been kicked balls her attacker dropped to his knees in agony releasing his grip on her on the way.
As soon as her feet hit the ground she ran as fast as her legs would carry her back the way she came. She tried to calm the panic that rose in her chest, there was no other way off this floor but up, she had to go to the roof.
Her mind raced faster than her legs as she climbed stair after stair headed toward what might be her own death. She shook her head and the last word , no she wasn't going to die she knew better this time around she was ready she'd be careful. She repeated the positive thoughts to herself as climbed on not believe for one minute that any of it was true.
Finally she found herself face to face with a red door marked exit, she paused for a moment to enjoy the irony of the fact that an organization as secret and evil as the foot was up to code.
She starred at the door knob, right now she would much rather stick her hand into a pit of snakes, but taking a deep breath she pushed her fear aside and flung the door open.
The scene before her ripped images forward from the depths of her mind, she had been here before but never while she was awake. There before her the fight scene from her nightmares was playing out before her eyes, she watched in stunned horror before a flashing whirling fighter caught her attention.
Damn it all to hell! She cursed to herself I thought I told him not to stop to fight!
"Mikey" She called to him over the sound of clanging metal but he did not hear her, in fact no one seemed to notice her at all , they were all to engulfed in the brawl to pay mind to her.
Moving to plan B she began to scan the ground for the illusive and deadly red light attached to the bomb that would ruin everything. After a few moments she saw a tiny red flicker and began to carefully inch her way toward it. She wasn't sure what she was going to do when she got there but she needed to see it.
Half way there a strong hand grabbed her shoulder and whipped her around, she prepared to fight back only to find it was Raph.
"What the hell" He yelled over the noise " I thought tha' you weren't supposed to be here"
"Change of plans" She yelled back " We need to move this fight, there's a bomb" She continued pointing to the flickering light for emphasis.
She watched the surprise on his face turn to quickly to anger " Fuck" He cursed before calling out to his brothers.
Raph's angry yell was for more affective than her effort, within a matter of seconds they were gathering in.
"Leo we gotta move" Raph called easily throwing his opponent to the ground " There's a bomb"
With that they began cutting a path to edge of the roof, she felt a hand on her shoulder and turned to see Mikey following so close behind her he was almost stepping on her heels. She gave him a weak smile, he said something but the ever rising wind blew it from her.
"What?" She yelled as the group reached the edge and Leo started scanning the area for a way down.
He opened his mouth to speak but the sound of a high pitched ringing beep caught his attention. They all looked back to see that the flickering red light was now flashing in a menacing way.
He quickly closed the space between them pulling her in to his chest before whispering in her ear.
"I love you"
And with that the red light extinguished and an explosion ripped its way up from the building below their feet.
