"Alright fellow mutant ninjas and human companions my sister and I have hid all of the Easter eggs we all have decorated. Some of them will be easy to spot, the rest, well, you'll have to use your ninja/warrior/vigilante skills to find them including the golden egg that contains $1,000, courtesy of my family." Kara was pacing in front of everyone as the guys, April, Casey, and Dragan stood in place like soldiers with Easter baskets in hand. Sara was leaning against the wall behind Kara watching her with a grin on her face enjoying seeing Kara having fun.

"The adults are at my place making the food for afterwards so Sara and I will be the referees to make sure no one causes any trouble, I'm looking at you Raph and Casey." She said pointing at both of them making them chuckle and nudge each other. "The one with the most eggs wins a prize at my place."

"Ok! Here are the rules! Rule One: No using weapons so put them over there in the corner." She grinned hearing groans from Raph and Casey but it turned to a smile seeing the excitement in Mikey when he was the first one to put away his weapon.

"Rule Two: No fighting. If two people see the same or touch the same egg it will be determined by either a flip of a coin or rock, paper, scissors, Capiche?" She looked at all of them as they all nodded their heads.

"Rule Three: Have fun." She said with a smile before raising her hand in the air, "Now, start!"

She watched everyone go in different directions, Donnie, Mikey, and Dragan finding some right away in the living room of the Lair while the others went to different rooms, their priorities being the golden egg.

Kara walked over to Sara leaning against the wall beside her and watched them with a smile on her face. "You think they'd be able to find the golden egg?"

"Possibly, finding it may be easy but getting to it might give them a challenge." Sara said with a soft chuckle.

"I can't wait to taste dad's BBQ after this, I'm so excited." Kara said with a wide grin her gaze softening as she watched all of her friends have fun. Sara looked down at Kara and smiled before putting her arm around her sister and brought her close.

"Ah forget..how many eggs did we make anyways?" Dragan asked aloud while finding one in between some DVDs.

"Five dozen eggs, so by my calculations and the number of possible hiding spots in the lair we should be able to find them all around two hours tops." Donnie said from the dojo, climbing the tree to grab what eggs were there, Mikey beating him to the ones at the top.

"What if we don't find them all?" Mikey asked, doing a flip off the tree.

"Then we'll be woken up by the smell of rotten eggs." Raph said sneaking a peak into Master Splinter's room and blinked finding a regular egg laying nestled on his bed. His face fell thinking they would hide the golden egg in here but grabbed the egg anyways.

Sara appeared beside him out of nowhere making him jump and sigh in annoyance. "Do you always have to do that every time you visit?"

"Aw, come on, just having fun. Besides, you shouldn't just focus on the golden egg. The prize for this egg hunt might be more than the egg itself...what would you do with the money, anyways?"

Raph shrugged his shoulders and went to go look some more. "I dunno, you never know when you'll need that kind of money, right? I could always use it to get better stuff for my brother's and Master Splinter."

"Huh, never knew you could be so sweet." She said with a chuckle and gave him a kiss on the cheek making him flush in embarrassment and anger. "Grr just..just don't tell anyone, ok?!"

Sara laughed more and disappeared to let him continue. "Whatever you say, Raphie."

Raph stood up pointing angrily at where she last was his face now as red as his bandana. "And don't call me that either!" When there was no response he went back to searching not knowing Sara appeared right beside his ear, opening her mouth with a wide grin.

Kara looked up hearing Raph yelling in the other and shrugged watching Casey and April. "So what will you guys do if you find the golden egg?"

"I'm gonna buy more gear for fighting. Maybe even turn my bike into a fighting machine." Casey said with a grin.

"I'm thinking of taking my dad somewhere nice. Somewhere to get his mind off of the mutants and fighting." April said finding another egg and put it in her basket. "It was nice of you and your family to set this up. It's been ages since I've had an egg hunt."

"Yeah, always seemed like it was for little kids." Casey added in. "Forgot how much fun this was." He smiled thinking back on memories making Kara smile as well.

"I FOUND THE GOLDEN EGG!" Mikey shouted from the kitchen.

Everyone ran into the kitchen to see Mikey staring into the freezer. Everyone gathered around him to see Ice Cream Kitty hugging it. When Mikey went to reach for it but Ice Cream Kitty hissed at him hugging it close to him. "Ice Cream Kitty.." Mikey said in sadness but had a determined look on his face and went to reach for it but the same thing happened. "Why are you attacking me? I thought we had something special!"

Kara raised a brow and looked over at Sara giving her a look that said, "please explain."

"I knew since they are at an advantage with their skills I decided to pick a simple place no one would think of except for Mikey but given the relationship between ICK and Mikey..we had a little talk." She said with a smile.

"What did you tell her?" Kara asked in curiosity.

"Alright, ICK, that's my new nickname for you..no offense. Anyways, I'm going to need you to guard this egg with your life, ok? Not even Mikey can get it. If you do this there's a treat in it for you." Sara placed a small batch of catnip inside the egg and placed it inside the freezer. ICK meowed in excitement hugging and rubbing his face on it.

"Oh, nothing important just gave her encouragement to make sure it hard for them to get it." Sara said with a sly smile.

Kara laughed watching all of them trying to get to the egg. Dre stood beside them with a smile. "Is it always like this?" She asked with a laugh watching them try to reach in all at once only for ICK to growl louder and begin to claw at them all.

"Pretty much, fun huh?" Kara crossed her arms, smiling at her. "Think you'll stick around more?"

Dre looked from her then to the others her smile softening with a nod. "Aye."

Kara smiled more at her before looking over at them and sighed. "Alright, new rule! Find the rest of the eggs first then you all can try to get the golden egg. Now, move!"

Watching everyone depart Kara looked down hearing her phone go off and answered it. "Hello? Oh, hi daddy! Yeah, everyone is having a great time! Oh, it's almost done? Ok, we'll be done soon. See you later. Love you." She hung up the phone and looked over at Sara.

"Dad is almost done making the food. What should we do about the golden egg?"

"We'll think of something but for now let's just focus on the egg hunt right now."

-An Hour Later-

"Alright! Time to get me the golden egg!" Mikey shouted running to the kitchen with the others right behind him.

"Not before I get it first." Raph grinned grabbing Mikey's shell and pulling him backwards to get to it first, all of the boys fighting to reach the freezer first.

April snuck around them and opened the freezer to see Ice Cream Kitty hugging a ball with a note attached to it.

Confused, April took the note and closed the freezer. "Guys, listen! They took it back to Kara's place and hid it there!"

"WHAT?!" They all shouted at once.

"Yeah, Dre went with them to hide it."

"What are we waiting for? Let's go!" Raph and Casey shouted at once both of them running out the Lair, the others following.

-At Kara's place-

"Wow, Mr. Sharper, yoor barbeque smells amazing." Dre said to him with a smile. All of them on the roof setting up the table for when the others arrived.

"Why, thank you Miss Macintosh. I do make a mean steak."

Mrs. Sharper walked over to Dre carrying a large bowl of potato salad and leaned over to whisper to her. "Sometimes not in a good sort of way." She said with a smile making Dre giggle and went over to the table where Kara was setting the plates and utensils.

"I see your cooking skills have gotten better, my friend." Master Splinter said with a smile helping Kara's mom with bringing food from inside.

"Ha! I said I would beat you at something. Who knew it was cooking."

"Wait, you mean Master Splinter can't cook?" Kara said in surprise staring at him and her dad.

Before any of them could speak Sara interrupted them. "Hey, they're coming!"

Everyone watched as they landed on the roof April on Donnie's back and Casey on Raph's. They all blinked in surprise at all the food and everyone there waiting for them.

"Happy Easter, kids." Mrs. Sharper came up to them giving each of them a hug and ushered them towards the food. "I know you all must of worked up an appetite searching for the eggs so help yourselves."

Mikey looked up at her with big, anime eyes. "R-Really?"

Mrs. Sharper blinked but nodded with a smile. "Of course, sweetie."

Mikey smiled wide and gave her a hug before running over to the table and found himself a spot before filling his plate up with whatever he could fit on it.

"Hey, don't take all of the food!" Raph shouted at him following after and soon everyone was digging in. Everyone sat at the long table, chatting away and having a good time, the guys, April, and Casey seeming to have forgotten about the golden egg.

Kara ate silently watching over her family and friends having a good time and smiled softly, closing her eyes feeling nothing but joy at how she wasn't alone in fact, she glanced over at Dragan and Casey, her circle of friends was starting to grow which made her smile grow as well.

Hearing her father call her name she looked up at laughed as he made a funny face with his food which made her laugh.

Once everyone was full and satisfied the clean up began, the kids helping out the parents, Mikey and Dragan did the dishes, Master Splinter helped Mrs. Sharper but away any leftovers and take the dishes to the kitchen, Leo and Raph helped Mr. Sharper put away the chairs and BBQ pit back on Kara's balcony while everyone else cleaned up the mess they made on the roof.

Donnie was sweeping while Kara was picking up bigger items and throwing them away when she looked up at the setting sun. She let out a soft sigh and stared off into space.

"Something the matter?" Donnie came up to her asking softly yet with concern in his voice placing an arm around her.

She shook her head, leaning against him. "Just thinking of all the fun we had today. It was a great day."

Sara looked over at them and smiled before nudging Casey and April, ushering them to give them some privacy and followed behind them.

"You know" Donnie began as he slid both of his arms around her giving her a gentle squeeze. "I could use the money, if I found the golden egg, to take you on a date you deserve so much." He gave her a soft kiss on the cheek making her smile and place her hands over his arms.

"I don't need a fancy date just hanging out with you makes me happy."

"But you deserve something much more than just being stuck in my lab watching me work."

"I suppose you're right but even if I knew where the egg was I wouldn't tell you. No cheating, besides, Sara hid it when I wasn't looking so I don't know where she put it but it doesn't matter. Just being here with you matters."

She turned around to face him each of them staring into the other's eyes before leaning in, their eyes slowly closing til their lips made contact in a loving kiss.

After a few seconds though, their moment was killed when Mrs. Sharper called them down to see who the winner was of the egg hunt.

Both of them departed and smiled at each other before heading back down into the house.

"Wait, we're not done yet. We still haven't found the golden egg." Mikey said in a panic.

"Or did you?" Sara said with a grin before pointing at the baskets. "You all should look inside them."

April, Casey, and the guys went over to their baskets and dug through them and they all jumped up to see the golden egg inside it but when they opened it up there was only two hundred dollars in each of them.

"Since you all were having fun and helped clean up we decided to split the reward with all of you, though we had to add in a couple hundred to make it even." Mr. Sharper said walking next to Sara and placed his hand on her shoulder.

Mrs. Sharper moved to his side holding his arm with a smile on her face. "You all did such an amazing job it was only fair.

They all looked at each other before running over to them, giving them a large group hug making everyone laugh.

"Now, who wins the prize for the hunt?" Mrs. Sharper and Sara began counting the eggs while Kara and Donnie were in the background watching them and holding hands.

When it was announced Mikey won he hollered in joy and was super excited. When he as given his prize his eyes widened in awe having a gift card to a popular pizza place that had just opened up. Mikey overloaded with excitement that he eventually fainted.

Donnie and Kara looked at each other and smiled as she layed her head against his shoulder, enjoying the moment.
