Okay so, I reviewed what the original author asked of me when I adopted the story. She asked me to keep it to the movie as much as possible so I will but as I said, I will be changing a few things. Anyway, on with the story.
Donatello continued to follow the trail of ice until he noticed the royal family so he hid behind a few rocks along with his pet, Chompy. "Please help! It's my daughter!" King Yoshi pleaded to the rocks surrounding them. Donnie looked at Chompy, who just shrugged back with his tongue still out. Soon, they watched in awe as the rocks started to rolls around towards the royal family. 'Cool.' Donnie thought to himself as Yoshi pulled his wife closer.
Donnie gasped in delight as the rocks started to glow and they each turned into different creatures. There was a short female fox with a purple outfit, a female blue salamander in a blue outfit and many more different types of humanoid animals. "It's the king," A large blue-green turtle with spikes said in awe. A white-furred rabbit in a blue cloak walked through the multitude of creatures. "Whoa! This is so amazing!" Donnie said quietly amazed. He gasped as the rock he was leaning on turned into a grey meerkat.
"Shh!" She told him in a high voice. She grabbed the little turtle and his pet. Chompy licked her cheek and she smiled at the idea in her head. "Cuties. I'm gonna keep you." Donnie smiled a little. 'I have a family.' Donnie and Chompy have been alone for several years now and it felt great to have a family to call their own.
"Your Majesty," The white Rabbit greeted. He gently grabbed Leo's hands and asked, "Born with the powers or cursed?" Yoshi told him, "B-born with them and they're getting stronger." Usagi took April from the Queen's arms and touched her forehead. He sighed in relief with the revelation of what had transpired. "You are lucky it wasn't her heart. The heart is not so easily changed... but the head can be persuaded." He told them. Yoshi nodded and said, "Do what you must."
Usagi sighed and told them, "I recommend we remove all magic." He gave her back to the queen and with a wave of his hand, with magic that not even Leo could understand, he put images in the sky. Leo recognized them as some fun moments of them playing in the snow with his magic. There was a picture of him pushing April on a sled in the ballroom, their normal playroom then Usagi changed it into an outside, snowy scene. "Even memories of magic, just to be safe." He changed skating in the ballroom to skating on a frozen pond, sitting with Mikey, just that night, outside in the winter. "But have no fear. I'll leave the fun. She will be just fine. She will awaken in the morning as if nothing ever happened."
Leo looked at his hands then back at Usagi. "So, she won't remember I have powers?" He asked Usagi as he put the new memories back into an unconscious April's head. April smiled signaling that she is okay and is sleeping soundly. "It's for the best," Yoshi told Leo soothingly.
\Usagi looked at Leo and told him. "Listen to me, Leonardo." Leo looked at him with round eyes. "Your powers will only grow stronger." He walked a few steps away and with a wave of his hands, put a blue silhouette of a grown-up turtle. 'Is that... me?' Leo thought to himself. "There is beauty in it.." Usagi said as he showed Leo showing off his powers to the members of the kingdom. The image then showed Leo putting a giant snowflake in the sky.
"...But also great danger." The snowflake quickly became red and distorted. Leo gasped in fear. 'That... could happen... to me?!' He thought to himself fearfully. "You must learn to control it. Fear will be your enemy." The people around Leo's silhouette turned blood red just like the snowflake. Leo's silhouette started to scream as the people began to pounce on him. The young Leo hid in his mother's robe. 'I don't want that to happen to me. I don't want to hurt people. I already hurt April. I don't want to hurt anyone else. "No! We'll protect him! He can learn to control it, I'm sure!" Yoshi said with confidence that his oldest could control his magic.
Until then... we'll lock the gates.
Throughout the entire day, April had no idea what was happening. She frowned as the gates to the castle closed so she asked her father timidly, "Daddy, what's going on?" Yoshi sighed sadly and told her, "You will understand when you are older."
We'll reduce the staff.
"Daddy, why are they leaving?" April asked sadly and confused as many of her friends walked out the door with their suitcases. "You will understand when you are older," Yoshi told her once more.
We'll keep his contact with people... and his powers hidden from everyone. Including April..."
April sighed sadly as she sat by herself in her own room for the first time. Leo's bed and items were moved to another room with no explanation. All her mother told her was that Leo needed his own space. April ran out of her room and went to Leo's new room, which was previously a storage room. She watched as Leo closed the door and she didn't even notice the tears streaming down her turtle brother's face. 'Sorry, April. I don't want to hurt you again.'
About a week later, April looked out the window and saw that it was snowing outside. 'Yes! Snowturtle time!" April ran out of her room giggling happily as she went to her brother's new door. She knocked and said, "Leo! It's snowing outside! Do you want to build a snowturtle! C'mon, let's go outside and play!" She turned and leaned her back against the door and said, "Please, Leo. I never see you anymore." April then looked under the door and she didn't even see his green feet. "Please, Leo! It feels like you've gone away forever."
She ran back to her room, grabbed her dolls, then came back and sat down in front of his door. She then started to move the dolls as if they were speaking to one another. "We used to be best friends... and now we're not." She sighed sadly as she flopped down on her back and said, "Can you please tell me why?"
She stood back up and faced the door. "Do you want to build a snowturtle?" She put her mouth to the keyhole and then said, "It doesn't have to be a snowturtle. It could be a snowman..."
"Go away, April," Leo told her from the other side of the door trying to not sound sad. April frowned and with tears brimming in her eyes, said, "Ok, Leo. Bye." Then she left sadly.
A few days later, Leo was watching the snow fall outside from the window in his room. He loved the falling snow especially playing in it. He leaned on the windowsill but soon gasped in fear as ice covered a wide section of the window seal. He held his hands close to him. 'No... I can't...' Later that night, while April was sleeping, Leo went to his parents and he explained his fears. They made three-fingered gloves for him since he was probably the only kappa in the kingdom. "The gloves will help," Yoshi told him as he slipped the gloves on. Leo looked at his hands. "See? Conceal it."
"Don't feel it," Leo said back as he looked at his father. This mantra had been repeated to him for a least a week now and he had it completely memorized. "Don't let it show," They said together.
Several years later, April decided to try and play with her brother once again. She knocked on his door and asked, "Hey, Leo! Do you want to build a snowturtle? If not, we can ride our bikes around the halls." She said as she grabbed his bike and rode around the hallway. "Come on, Leo. I really think you need some company in there. Please, I'm going crazy talking to no one. I've been talking to the pictures on the walls even!" She looked up at the picture near Leo's room with another female turtle with a light blue mask on and she was kissing her true love. "You better hang in there, Venus."
She went back to his door and lied against a nearby clock. "Please, Leo. I'm feeling really lonely and I know you are too. All these rooms are empty and I'm just watching the hours tick by..." Her feet moved with the swinging pendulum in the grandfather clock as she clicked her tongue with each passing second. After another few minutes of silence, she sighed sadly and went to go annoy one of the few servants in the castle or study. Whichever to keep her mind busy. 'I wish you would open your door, big brother.' April thought to herself with a tear falling down her face. Later that day while April was with her tutor, Leo's was talking with his parents about his power. "I'm scared!" He said fearfully. His powers were getting out of control and he was scared that he would hurt someone again. "Father, Mother, they're getting stronger!"
"Leonardo, calm down, my son. You know getting upset only makes it worse," Yoshi told him gently. Yoshi walked closer to Leo in order to comfort him but Leo drew back. He held his hands closer to him and shouted fearfully, "No! Don't touch me! Please... I... I don't want to hurt you..." Leo whispered the last part as he remembered hurting April on accident all those years ago. 'No one can touch me. I'm a monster. My powers are dangerous. I already hurt April. I don't want to hurt anyone else.' Leo thought to himself with tears falling down his face.
About eight years later, April skid to Leo's room about was about to knock on his door again but decided against it. 'I've been trying this for years. What difference will it made this time around?' April ran to her parent's room and gave them a big hug. "See you in two weeks!" She said as they hugged her back. As Yoshi and Teng Shen were about to leave, Leo went to the bottom of the stairs, bowed at them, then asked sadly, "Do you really have to go?" Teng Shen walked over to her eldest son and told him with a loving smile, "You will be fine, Leonardo."
Down at the docks, the captain of the ship greeted them. "Your Majesties." He took their luggage and followed them as they got onto the boat.
Sadly, no one knew that this would be the last that anyone would see of Teng Shen and Hamato Yoshi because in the middle of the night. This boat was struck by a fierce storm. that no one saw coming. The waves were relentless. Yoshi and Teng Shen knew that they weren't coming out of this alive. They held each other close as they waited for their inevitable deaths but at the moment, they were not worried about themselves. They were worried about their children. April would be alone and Leonardo would have no one to help him control his powers and there wasn't a soul in the entire kingdom who even knew about them.
The boat soon began to tip into the water and the two lovers held each other close as they waited for their time to die.
April fell to her knees, crying her eyes out at the news delivered to her. Just a few feet behind her, Leo was fighting back his own tears. His gloved hand covered his mouth. 'They're... gone. I don't have anyone to help me control my powers what am I going to do now?...' Leo looked at his sister and shook away his thoughts at the moment. He took several deep breaths then walked over to April and put a comforting hand on her shoulder. April gasped at Leo's put his hand on her shoulder. Leo smiled at her and April could tell that he was trying to control his emotions since he was just as sad as her. Leo held his hands out and immediately, April threw herself into them. She cried on his shoulder and Leo hugged her back all while controlling his emotions. 'This... this is the first time I've touched someone in... years...' Leo thought to himself. That evening, there was a funeral for the royal parents. Everyone in the kingdom came in black clothes to mourn the loss of their king and queen. One big picture of the king and queen was covered in a black cloth since their bodies were never found.
A few weeks later, April and Leo were still mourning the loss of their parents but they had their own ways of coping. April was speaking to the other servants in the castle but Leo shut himself in his room as usual. April walked to his room, still in her black dress with a black cloth on her head. She knocked on his door and said, "Leo? Please come out. I know you're in there. Everyone has been asked where you are. I know you're hurting just like I am." April swallowed a few tears as she continued to speak to him. "Everyone is telling me to be brave and I'm trying. I'm trying so hard. Leo, I'm right out here for you. Just let me in... please." She leaned against the door and told him, "Leo, it's just you and me now." She started slid down the door and asked him, "What are we gonna do now, Leo?" Tears were now in full force as she choked out, "Do you want to build a snowturtle?"
In Leo's room, Leo was also leaning on his door with tears streaming down his face as he looked at his room. His room was mostly covered in ice and he had to stop the snowflakes from falling. 'I have to hide my emotions now. I can't let you in, April. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.'
