April went to the lair alone the next day. She had called Holly, but she was still pretty annoyed with Raph and had a lead on a vehicle that she wanted to deal with as soon as possible, so April was alone today. She had woken up later than usual, but that was because she had been up late with Donatello. They had had a pretty steamy make out session and had stayed together almost the whole night. She had barely been able to sleep and he hadn't wanted to go, but they both knew that he would have to leave before the sun came up. Her aunt had banged on her door at ten-thirty to see if she was alright. April claimed that she had been reading and lost track of time, but Carol knew that was a lie. She tried to pry the truth out of her niece, but April wouldn't fess up.
"You know, I don't care if you were up late talking to a boy." Carol finally snapped. "You don't need to lie to me."
"Alright fine! I was up talking with a guy." April felt a flush rise in her cheeks, partially from annoyance, but also as she had not been talking all that much.
"See! Was that so hard?" Carol shouted exasperatedly before huffing away in frustration. Freaking teenager.
April had ran out of her Aunts house as soon as possible, she couldn't quite deal with all the questions she was going to have to answer at that time, so she decided avoidance was better than lies. She took her time getting underground today though, the seasons were starting to shift again and she wasn't sure how many more nice days there were left before the leaves started to fall from the trees and the winter set in. New York City was not the most pleasant city in winter. It got bitterly cold, and if there was a snow storm travel became almost impossible. Not to mention that the snow didn't stay all pretty and white like in the movies, it always turned a dirty gray color that was just oppressive. April looked around and saw a few of the trees were already starting to turn. All the different shades of green were punctuated with flashes of orange, yellow or deep red.
Once she was underground, she ran to the lair. The exercise felt good and helped her to wake up a little. She was hoping to get a training session in today as it had been a few days since she had managed to find the time. School had been ramping up with assigning homework and she was not as organized about getting it done in as timely a manner as Holly. Luckily, Holly usually helped her with the boring classes they shared, so she at least got decent grades which was all Carol cared about.
The guys were up and about when she reached their home. Leonardo was watching his Space Adventurer show. Mikey was wearing his thumbs out playing on his phone. Raph was beating up the punching bag in the corner of the room. She couldn't see Donatello, but she could hear the sounds of him working in his Lab. He was probably already making adjustments to his van. April went and sat by Leo, "Hey."
"Donnie came home very late last night, you wouldn't have had anything to do with that would you?" Leo asked with a knowing smile plastered on his face.
"What!?" April tuned red.
"Hah!" Mikey laughed "You guys were smooching" he and Leo both made kissy noises at her between bouts of laughter. April threw a pillow at them, but she wasn't really mad, just a little embarrassed.
"OK Mikey, be nice." Leo wiped a tear away, "Its none of our business really."
"I am being nice" He replied.
"Just you wait, I am going to make your lives hell if you ever date anyone." April threatened.
"I can't wait to meet the girl who'll put up with Mikey." Raph said from the corner.
"Hey!" Mikey shouted at his big brother indignantly, "At least I wouldn't scare off a girl by being a big jerk".
"Ouch" Leo said and winced waiting for Raph to pounce on their brother.
Raph looked annoyed, but muttered, "Alright, I deserved that." He stomped off to brood in solitude.
"Geese Mikey, that was a bit harsh." April said, but before Mikey could answer Donnie came out of his room to see what was going on.
"What was harsh?" He said, wiping his hands on a greasy rag.
Immediately, Mikey started up with the smoochy noises again and Leo had to stifle his laughter. Donnie shot them a look.
"Ignore them," April said, "What have you been doing?" She pointed at the rag.
"Oh, I was working on gutting firmer suspension on the Van so it doesn't rock around as much." He sounded pleased with himself.
"So, they managed to drive it back OK then?" April said.
"I can drive no problem!" Leo protested.
"Oh yeah, then how did the dent get in the side panel?" Donnie asked crossing his arms over his chest.
"Mikey was messing around and bumped into me!"
"Did not!"Mikey yelled back, "You wouldn't let me pick the radio station!"
"Geese, sorry I asked." April shook her head.
"Do you want to see what I've been doing?" Donnie asked April before Leo and Mikey could continue arguing.
"Sure!" April followed Donnie back to his lab. She sat on his work stool and let him talk about all the changes he was making to his Van. She smiled to herself as he showed her the suspension he was making to replace what was already there. He always got so animated when he was talking about something he was passionate about and it warmed her heart to see him so happy.
"Do you want to help me?" He asked her
"Really? You trust me to not screw it all up."
"Of course, its really not that hard. It just requires a little muscle and I know you've been working on those" He smiled at her as she pretended to flex her biceps for him.
"Yeah, I am pretty tough" She agreed, and they both chuckled.
They worked together to lift the van and get the wheels off. Donnie then showed her how to use his impact wrench so she could help him get the rest of the assembly pulled apart to get at the springs.
It took them a few of hours, but eventually they had the new pieces in place and had put it all back together.
"That wasn't so hard, was it?" Donnie asked. He had a smudge of grease on his face and April wiped it gently away with a rag.
"No, It wasn't" She was surprised at how satisfying it was to work on the vehicle.
"We'll turn you into a gear head yet." He said and brushed a lock of hair away from her eyes.
They locked eyes for a moment, and just as they were leaning in towards each other, Aprils phone rang. "Terrible timing" she muttered as she checked the screen to see who it was. It was Holly, so she knew she should answer it. "You couldn't have waited like thirty seconds to call me could you?"
"Why?" Holly asked shocked.
"I'm standing here with Donnie and it was very romantic" April scolded her friend.
"Hi Holly" Donnie said smiling at April.
"Oh what, were you guys going get frisky?" Holly asked a little sarcastically. She knew they wouldn't have answered if they were actually having a moment.
"Maybe later," April said, she caught Donnie's expression out of the corner of her eye, a combination of shock and excitement. She laughed. "So whats up?"
"Oh right, I have an old plain white van we can use for the recon, I was going to drive it over to the lair as it needs some modifications before we can all get in it." There were the sounds of a vehicle being driven in the background.
"Are you driving it now?" April asked a little impressed at Holly's law breaking.
"Yeah," There was a pause "How else am I going to get it over there?"
"I just assumed you would have Donnie drive it over, or something?"
"Considering Donnie drove us last night and he can't get a license, where as I have been driving cars around my Dad's farm for the last 4 years, and already have my learners permit, I figured I could risk it." Holly sounded nonchalant.
"Your mom is going to be so pissed if you get caught." April said.
"Yeah, so she's not going to find out." Holly replied.
"How far away are you?"
"Well, that's the reason I called. I need to know exactly where that tunnel entrance was that Donnie made so I can get to you. I sort of vaguely remember, but have him text me the exact location so I can GPS it."
"OK, I'll have him do that now" April looked over at Donnie, who was already sending the requested information.
"Also... I mean, I need him to open the tunnel" Holly stated obviously. A little ding noise indicated that she had received a text. "Ahh! There it is. According to my phone I'll be there in about thirty minutes."
"OK, we'll meet you there." She ended the call and turned to Donnie, "Do you want to test out your new set up?" She indicated at Donnie's van.
"Might as well." They both hopped in and drove off into the tunnels.
They arrived before Holly, which was unsurprising as she had to fight traffic and they did not. But once she was at the tunnel entrance, she called April again to let her know she was there. They waited to make sure the surrounding area was as empty as it was likely to get, and anyone who was around was not paying attention, then opened the wall and Holly drove in. She jumped out of a medium sized van that was exactly as plain and inconspicuous as she had said.
"Well?" She asked, "What do you think?"
"I mean, its certainly a van." April said a little sarcastically.
"Oh ha ha." Holly shot back. "It won't draw anywhere near as much attention as that behemoth" She pointed at Donnie's ride. "Besides, it was practically free and it will get us close enough to that base to see what is going on."
"Where did you get it?" Donnie asked curiously.
"Remember Bud?" Holly asked April, She nodded, "Well after the break in, and kidnapping of my mother, I sent emails to the management company outlining what his job is supposed to be, and how they're grossly underpaying him. So he got a big fat raise and now only has to work one job. He was a painter on the side and so he sold me his van once he realized I wanted it."
"What did you tell him you wanted it for?" April asked.
"He didn't ask, he wanted to give it to me, but I made him take Fifty bucks for it. That way I don't have to pay tax it when I get the title."
"Wait, this is your van now" April asked.
"Yeah, I don't want him to get in trouble if I do get arrested for driving without a license" Holly frowned like it was all obvious.
"So what does it need doing to it?" Donnie said poking around under the hood, "It looks mechanically sound"
"Its fine, but its got shelved and cages installed in the back and there is no room for you lot." She opened the back doors to show them. There was maybe enough room for two adult males to be crammed in between the racks that were in there, so they would definitely have to come out to get all four brothers in there.
"Lets go, I want to get this done today if possible." Holly said eagerly. They all hopped back into the vans and drove back to Donnie's Lab.
Once there, Donnie left his van in the tunnels so that they could get the new van into his shop. He and Holly inspected the cages together while April looked in from the back. They were pretty sure that most of it would come out easily enough, but some of the bolts looked pretty rusty and may need cutting off. Holly got to work without going to let the others know she was here. April assumed it was because she wasn't quite ready to see Raph yet, so she left them to it and went back out to hang out with Leo and the others. She pulled out her computer from her bag and started working on her History essay again.
After a while, Donnie emerged from his Lab to come hang out too. Holly was perfectly happy to pull apart the storage units herself, and it had been quite cramped quarters with both of them trying to work. One of the down sides of having a hard shell on your back is that small spaces are trickier to get in and out of.
"Holly's here?" Raph said once Donnie had relayed all the information.
"Yeah," Donnie replied with a quick look at the others. "You can go in there, if you want to."
"Into your lab? By myself." Raph asked a little stunned. No one was allowed in there without his say so.
"If you think you should" Donnie amended his statement. Raph looked a little worried, but he took a deep breath and made his way over to the Lab.
"Ooh, this should be good" Mikey said rubbing his hands together and trying to sneak over to the door.
"Don't even think about it." Leo said to his little brother.
"Yeah, I think that this one time, he might need some privacy." April agreed.
Holly had borrowed Donnie's full face mask and angle grinder. She had already found a few bolts that needed cutting out, and she figured she's just get them all in one go before she tried ripping out the rest of the shelves. She had her earphones in and the noise canceling turned on so she could listen to her music in peace. As she finished up cutting a bolt free, she shut off the tool and started to bob along to the song in her ears. Raph watched her for a couple moments to see if she would notice him there, she seemed pretty focused and he could see one ear bud so he assumed the other one was probably in her other ear. She pulled the mask off her face and was mouthing along to the lyrics, she scrunched up her face and played air guitar along with whatever was playing on her phone. Raph couldn't help but chuckle at her. She stood up and turned to leave the back of her van with the tool in her hand when she finally spotted Raph. She let out a yell of surprise and missed her step on the bumper and landed in a sitting position with her legs hanging out of the back of the van.
"Jesus Christ!" She yelled at him as she unplugged herself from her song. "I could have cut off my freaking hand."
"Sorry," he grimaced at her, "Are you OK?"
"Yeah, luckily." she took a steadying breath, "You scared the crap out of me."
"Sorry," he repeated himself.
"I didn't think you'd want to talk to me after yesterday." She said him straight forwardly.
"That's actually why I came to see you" He scratched the back of his head unsure how to start.
Holly raised an eyebrow at him, stood up to put the power tools away, then sat back on the back of her van. She patted a spot next to her, to see if he would come and sit with her. He hesitated a moment, but did sit by her. He took a breath to start, "I'm sorry about what I said yesterday. I didn't mean everything I said, although I did mean it when I said I was worried about you getting hurt."
"Yeah, I know." She crossed her arms.
"You do?" He asked, "How?"
"Because I know you." She stated bluntly. "I was pretty furious when I left yesterday, but I thought about what you said and how you said it, and I realized that you were trying to protect me." She nudged him with her shoulder, "It was the worst way to do it, but still."
"I'm not very good at this whole, talking about my feelings stuff" He made a face that even this was pushing his comfort levels to their limits.
She sighed, "Could you at least try a little bit, for me? I don't need you to be all mushy like Donatello is, but just a little hint and I can figure it out."
He jutted his chin out in acknowledgment. She let out a little snort of amusement.
"I just..." he tried to find the words, "I can't..."
"I know" She said again, trying to sound reassuring,
"No, you don't." He stood and faced her again, "You're the only person I have ever cared about aside from my family before." She swallowed not sure what to say. "I could never forgive myself if something happened to you."
"Raph, there are somethings that even you can't protect everyone from." He was getting agitated again and she didn't quite understand why.
"I know that," He took a deep breath trying to keep himself calm, "Its not just about you getting hurt though, what if something happens and you don't want to hang out with us anymore? You don't want to see me anymore?"
"Oh, I see now." Holly finally understood. She bit her lip debating what to say. "Raphael, No matter what happens, you will always be so special to me." She took his massive hand in hers, "You're worrying about something that hasn't happened. Even if I can't fight with you against all this crazy stuff that's going on, you will always be someone I want to be around. I'm never going to stop being your friend."
He was silent, She knew what he was hoping she would say, but she couldn't promise to always be with him, that was just unrealistic.
"Look, right now in this time and place, I love you. I love hanging out with you, I love your sense of humor, I love to be by your side, but I don't know what the future will look like. You're going to have to decide if you think I am worth potential heart ache." He looked at her with shock in his eyes, and she just shrugged at her.
"Of course you're worth it" He spluttered at her. How could she even think that?
"Then we don't have a problem, right?" She asked with a relieved laugh.
He looked at her earnestly, she was right, Splinter was right. He was getting too deep into his own head to just enjoy her company. Raph needed to be more like Donnie, much more trusting with his heart. "No."
She stood and gave him a tight hug. "You really are quite sensitive you know."
"Don't you dare tell the others." He said, and she laughed, he snorted too.
They broke apart, and he pulled her in for a deep kiss.
"Ooooohh!" Came four voices from the Lab door.
Holly laughed, and looked over Raphs shoulder too see everyone else's head poked in the little gap. She could even see Splinter's nose poking out from the other side of the door."Oh shut up."
Raph just let her go and turned to give his brothers a stare that said 'You're all going to pay for this'.
"If you're all just standing around you can help me with this." the indicated at the back of the van.
"What do you need us to do?" Leo asked.
"I've cut the bolt that needed it, now it just needs a bit of brute force to get it all out". Holly said, she grabbed a crow bar and rammed it between the shelving and the frame of the shelving. She threw her whole weight into it and the shelving scraped along the floor of the vehicle about an inch.
April cringed at the noise, "No thanks, I've done enough physical labor today. I'll make something for us all to eat." She left to find some food for them all since it was getting late, and Mikey tried to sneak out after her, but Raph grabbed him by the shell and dragged him into helping.
With all of them working on getting the shelving units out it didn't take much time at all. Holly was greasy and sweaty by the end of it. She wasn't quite as heavy as the guys so it was much easier for them to pry out the storage racks. She instead had focused on getting the mounting brackets off the walls without damaging the aluminum siding. Once it was all out and cleaned up there was just about enough room for everyone and some supplies. It would be cramped, but it was significantly less obvious than Donnie's creation.
"It will work for now, in fact," She checked her watch to see what time it was. Almost 6 pm. "We should get some stuff in there to go out tonight."
"You want to go tonight?" Leo asked.
"Absolutely." Holly said. "How long do you think Donnie's encryption will keep Stockman buys?"
"She's right," Donnie agreed, "I had to make that code in a pinch, it probably wont take him long to remove my command and send the Mousers back into the sewers."
"We should eat, and gather some equipment, but we need to get out there as fast as possible." Holly was aware that it was Sunday night, so her mother would not be thrilled if she we're out late, but they should at least get started if they were going to save Aprils dad.
"Agreed," Leo acknowledged. "But we have to be smart about this."
"If we bring the drone, and some thermal scanners to start we may be able to figure out how many people were dealing with." Donnie scratched his head as they all made their way into the kitchen. April and Splinter were happily talking as April stirred a large pot of something. "We can also do our own scouting once were there, there's no need for us to stay cramped in the Van."
"Of course, I didn't expect you guys to just sit there. The van is just to get you guys close enough without being spotted. The are around the base has very little cover so I figured if we drive by slow-ish you can all pop out while April and I just watch." Holly pulled up a 360 degree street image on her PC. "I think if we come this was, past this old building, you can dip out" Holly showed them all where she had been thinking, "Then I can park around this corner and we can see who comes in and out without being too obvious." She panned over to the section where she thought there was the best cover
"What else is around this area?" Leo asked. Holly pinched the track pad and it zoomed out to a top down view of the block. They all dished themselves up some pasta and sauce and stood around discussing the best places they could potentially see to gain some level of access to the area. Leo had noticed another building that looked abandoned and they could possibly sneak into the back side completely undetected. So they agreed to drive by it to see what was there. Once the dishes had been washed and put away, Donnie and Holly went to see what gadgets they could possibly bring that wouldn't take up too much space while still giving them beneficial information. Mikey went to retrieve the little drone that he had been given and Leo and Raph brought a few basic supplies with them, like rope and a grappling hook. April, unsure how long they were going to be there, packed water and her computer, just in case there was time to finish her assignment before it was due.
Once the sun had set completely, they all piled into the old painters van. It was cramped for the guys but the made do with the space they had.
Holly drove them out through the Bronx and further into the suburbs. The base was fairly unassuming in the neighborhood. The only thing that really made it stand out was the thick concrete wall that enclosed the property. Otherwise it could be any old office building next to a recycling plant. There were other buildings around, but the back and one side of the base had a park and golf course butting up against it, so the only cover there were the few, well groomed trees that helped New Yorkers feel like there was some nature around them. The side the recycling facility was on had a wide gap between the two buildings, presumably for trucks to drive down with the refuse they carried. The street side of the base had a large steel gate and a guard box wedged in the concrete wall. There were flood lights and cameras mounted to the wall which all looked new. April and Holly pointed out these things out to the guys as they drove by.
"Drive down that road and see if that garage is still there." Leo pointed, and Holly complied.
The garage they had seen was still there, and it did look empty.
Holly pulled up and cut the engine. "We'll stay here and watch for anyone coming in, we'll call if its anyone to worry about."
"Stay out of sight." Leo warned them.
"We will," April said, "You guys be careful."
The guys were gone without another word, the sprang into the shadows and disappeared up the side of a building. April and Holly got back into the van to watch the front gate.
Nothing much happened for a while. Mikey killed the mini drones batteries and came back to the van to see if there were spares. There was not, so Holly made a note to make sure to put some in a bag for later. Donnie was sending April the pictures he was getting with his thermal imager for them to take a look at. April opened them on her lap top to be able to open the images on the larger screen and they examined them in as much detail as possible. Unfortunately the images didn't give a whole lot of information as the walls of the building were thick, but they could see where a lot of energy was being used as there were brighter spots in the images. There was a guard sitting in the booth, but both Holly and Donnie noticed that he was unusually still.
"I've been watching him for a good 20 minutes and he hasn't budged an inch," Donnie said over the phone to the others.
"I know, its really strange" Holly agreed.
"Maybe he's watching a show, or reading a book?" April offered.
"No," said Donnie, "I can't see anything in his hands or the flicker of a screen on his face."
April shrugged at Holly, " I don't know then, maybe he takes his job really seriously?"
Holly didn't respond. She was frowning at the guy hard trying to figure it out.
The sound of motorcycles interrupted their conversation. The turtles on the roof could see them coming long before the girls could. There was a group of black motorcycles driving towards them. They were each driven by someone dressed from head to toe in black. Some had multiple riders, but they all had a an ornate metal dragon head sculpture on the front of them.
"Geese, I wonder who these guys are?" April said sarcastically.
"They should basically just be flying a flag that says 'We're the foot clan'" Mikeys voice crackled over the little speaker in Aprils phone.
"The flag that one guy is carrying, does say that." Leo interjected, and sure enough one of the bikes had a big black with red Japanese characters on it.
"They know were here, or at least that we will be" Holly said. They all watched as the bikers slowed and the gate opened in to allow them to enter the base. "Did any of you see the guard move?" She asked the others.
An assorted mumbling of 'No' came back through the phone.
"Why don't I go get a closer look?" April asked.
"You know that the Foot probably know what we look like, right?" Holly said.
"I'll wear a disguise." She rummaged around for an over sized sweater and pulled it over her head. She threw the hood over her hair and snatched up her phone. She hopped out of the van before Holly could protest more and walked over around the corner and approached the booth.
April knocked on the glass, "Hey buddy, you got the time" She asked in a gravely voice that sounded so fake, and both Holly and Donnie slapped their foreheads simultaneously. They guard didn't respond. April tired again, "Can you hear me?"
"You should not be in this place." The guard replied, his voice was almost metallic sounding and he had no inflection in his tone. He turned his head towards April, but his eyes didn't seem to focus on her.
"What the hell?" Raph asked as they all heard the guards response though their phones.
"I'm just looking for the time, bro" April tried again.
"You must leave this place as you are not allowed to be in this place." The guard said again.
"Alright, I'm going man." April said, she hurried away felling thoroughly spooked. She climbed back into the van and shuddered.
"Are you OK?" Holly asked.
"I don't know," April replied. "Something is very wrong with that guy."
"Yeah, that's why I didn't want you to go over there." Holly said. Before they could get into an argument, they were saved by Holly's phone. "It's mom," She answered the phone.
"Where the hell are you?" April could hear Stacey even though she wasn't on speaker.
"Hi, I'm just helping April with some last minute homework" She lied and grimaced at April, who immediately began clacking the keys on her PC to make it sound like it was the truth.
"I don't care what you're doing, its almost eleven o'clock on a school night!" Stacey was furious.
"I'm sorry, I'll get home as soon as I can."
"You'll get home now or you can kiss your social life goodbye" Stacey hung up on her daughter.
"Great," Holly said sarcastically.
"You can go home, we'll find our way back." Leo said.
"No, you guys keep the van, I'll get a cab" Holly said to Aprils phone. "Do you want to come with me, or stay here?"
"I'll come, chances are I'll be getting my own call here any minute." April said.
"I'll leave the keys tucked up in the visor," Holly told the guys, "Don't crash my ride." She smiled as she heard Leo and Mikey begin to argue.
They called for a cab to pick them up a few blocks away, and started to walk in that direction. They said farewell to the guys and hung up their group call as another group of vehicles drove towards them, this time it was an assortment of vehicles, mostly old and beat up, but all of them driven by Purple Dragon members. April and Holly pulled their hoods up to cover their faces and hastened their pace to get out of sight. A couple of the vehicles slowed, and when they got around a corner, they ran to get out of sight. Not a moment later, one of the cars came back around and Fong was leaning out of the window looking for them.
"What are you looking for boss?" Said one of the other goons in the back seat.
"Shut up" Fong snapped back.
The girls pressed themselves back against the dumpster they were crouched behind and texted the guys just in case they needed them.
"Go to the next street," Fong ordered and the car pulled away to the next street.
"He saw us." Holly said softly to April. April nodded her agreement, and they waited for an extra minute to make sure the Purple Dragon car was gone before they continued on their way to find their cab.
April and Holly ducked down a shady alley way to wait for their cab, and April was in the process of calling Donnie to let them know that they had been spotted. Holly poked her head out to see if she could see either their cab, or Fong and his bunch of idiots. The street was still empty, but Holly thought she could see the dark outline of a car parked down the street.
"I think that's their car, it looks like the right make and model" Holly said. Behind her she heard a squeak of surprise and the sound of something hitting the floor. Holly tried to turn around, but before she could a calloused hand clamped down over her mouth and a beefy arm grabbed her around the waist, pinning her arms to her side. She was dragged bodily backwards and she blinked in surprise as Fong stood with his hands on his hips and a smug grin plastered on his face. Holly glared at him with as much anger as she could muster. April was thrashing in the arms of another henchman who was struggling to catch all her limbs.
"Well, well." Fong gloated, "Look what we found, a couple of princesses snooping around."
April muffled something back and kicked the guy holding her in the shins. He momentarily let go of her mouth and she screamed "DONATELLO!"
Fong rushed over and hit her across the back of the head with the blunt end of his knife. She fell limp and the hench-guy threw her over his shoulder. "You keep your mouth shut unless you want the same treatment" he shot at Holly. She tried to get her mouth free to call him every name she could think of but her head was clamped into the chest of the guy holding her.
"Get them in the car, we'll take them to DogPound." Fong lead the way, he knew the Turtles would be around here somewhere so they needed to get out of there as fast as possible. He opened one of the back doors and the guy carrying April placed her in the back seat before closing the door again. Holly was shoved less carefully into the other back seat and the door was slammed in her face. She waited for her guard to turn his back before she tried to open the door to run, but they had put the child locks on so she couldn't open the door from inside. She cursed under her breath.
"We ain't that stupid" Fong said from the drivers seat. One of his buddies was sat in the passenger seat and the last guy was stood awkwardly outside on the sidewalk.
"Where am I gonna' sit?" He asked stupidly.
"You can take a cab back to the city, or go into the base with the Krang, I don't really care." Fong said to his man. He pulled away without waiting for an answer and as they rounded a corner Holly saw the guys on a roof top. She immediately began banging on the window and screaming for them.
"Guys! We're in here!"
"Hey! Knock it off" Fong yelled at her, "Do something about that". The other gang member reached back over his seat and tried to contain Holly. She bit him as he was reaching out for her, and started to punch at body part that came too close to her. She managed to fend off a few arms but eventually Fong had to shut her up, he punched her in the gut as hard as he could and she collapsed as the air went out from her lungs. She looked up one last time to see the Turtles watching the car driving away. They tried to chase after it, but Fong sped away far too quickly for them to chase on foot.
