"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Macintosh." Kara greeted Dragan's parents.
"Oh, hello...um..." The father began but looked confused since he had never met her before.
"I'm sorry, hun, but we seem to have forgotten your name.." The mother gave her an apologetic smile Kara noting she had similar eyes like Dragan and wondered if the genes which effect the eye color effect different genders but shrugged it off.
"Oh, duh! We've never officially met, have we? My name is Kara and I'm your daughter's friend. It's a pleasure to meet you, ma'am and sir." She gave them a smile while holding her hand out.
"Nice to meet you as well, Kara. It's good to see our daughter making friends." The mother smiled shaking her hand.
"How did you two meet?" The father asked, shaking her hand as well Kara noting their accents weren't as strong as Dragan's though it seemed they barely had one at all.
"She saved me from being mugged." Kara rubbed the back of her head knowing they would of asked the question sooner or later and already thought up a half lie.
"She did what?!" The mother shrieked in fright staring between Kara and Dragan.
"Och, mum, it's not what ye think.." Dragan crossed her arms in annoyance but had a soft blush on her cheeks.
"Yeah, she was really brave in helping me..I don't know what would of happened if she hadn't been there." Kara looked over at Dragan and gave her a soft smile that turned into a grin making Dragan grin in return.
"I'm just happy you two are safe then. Sorry we can't stay for long we have to make arrangements for our move." The mother said as she walked around them packing things in the living room.
"Oh, yeah, Dragan told me you guys were moving...let me know if this is out of place but..I have a proposition for you two." Kara started off sad but then her facial expression changed completely to that of serious business.
-Later in the Sewers-
Kara was driving her scooter through the tunnels both of them whooping and hollering.
"I cannae believe ye talked ma parents into me staying wi ya! This is fantastic! Woohoo!"
"And all it took was telling them who MY parents were! Who knew having famous parents would come in handy! Can't wait to tell the guys!" Kara hollered some more as she revved her scooter faster both of them zooming through the tunnels. Parking her scooter by the entrance both of them entered the lair and saw the guys gathered round in a circle in the living room with pizza boxes and books piled up, it almost looked like a place in New York.
"Yeah, I'm on board with the whole "Rescue Karai" thing but if we're going through the trouble in invading Shredder's lair we gotta take him down once and for all!" Raph said slamming his sai down to show emphasis.
"It's too risky.."
"What's too risky?" Kara asked Leo noticing he was looking down at whatever they made in deep thought.
"We're devising a plan to rescue Karai." Donnie said giving her a smile.
"Seriously? Oh, so that's what this is Shredder's lair! Wait, won't it be heavily guarded since Shredder knows we'll most likely try to rescue her?"
"So far we've considered every possible predicament and have come up with a solution to most of them." Donnie informed her of what they've come up with so far.
"Hold up dudes, why do I have to be the bait while Donnie sits in the Shellraiser?" Mikey asked clearly not liking the idea.
"Someones gotta be the getaway driver." Donnie told him leaning near the set up to look it over.
"Look, everyone is important here." Leo said starting to get annoyed.
"Disagreement about a mission is never a good way to begin. Leonardo, may I speak with you?" While Master Splinter and Leo moved aside to talk in private Kara and Dragan sat down on the couch. "Soooo, we got some good news to tell you." Kara said in excitement. "Tell them, Dre."
"I dunno..think I should wait for Leo so everyone can hear it."
"Come on, Dre, you can tell him the news when you two are alone. So out with it!" Kara's face showing pure excitement and joy.
"Oh, alright. Ok, Kara managed tae convince ma parents tae let me stay here. I won't hae tae move!"
"Are you serious?!" Donnie said with a smile.
"That's awesome, dudette!" Mikey slurped up some noodles and gave her a smile.
"Right?! She'll be staying with me! I finally get to have a roommate! This is so exciting! Oh, he's alone, go tell him now." Kara said before giving her a shove towards Leo's direction.
Dragan blushed before straightening herself up and walked over to him noticing his upsetting look. Before she could say or do anything he walked past her making her blink in surprise and watched as he moved towards his brothers and Kara. Dragan sighed softly but decided to try and tell him later, following him to the others.
"So is that a no go on "Operation: Rescue Karai"?" Mikey asked him, everyone standing up.
"No, Splinter is wrong, we can't wait any longer."
"You guys gonna need help?" Kara asked with a grin.
"Not this time, bringing more people would just bring unwanted attention to us. Sorry, but it's best if you two sit this one out." Leo said.
"Alright, but I get to go on the next one." Kara said with a playfuly wink.
"Let's do this." Leo said as the four brothers put their hands in a circle and ran off to go rescue Karai.
"Alright, if thare's nothing else for me tae do guess I'd better heid back home an start packing." Dragan said turning to leave.
"Are you going to need any help?" Kara asked moving to stand beside her.
"Nae, I like packing a certain wye but ye can help me move once I'm done. Plus since ma parents are home for once I cannae stay out as late as I use tae. Just until work calls them again." Dragan gave her a smile before walking off deciding to take the shortcut through the sewers.
Kara shrugged before laying down on the couch and decided take a nap while waiting for them to return. She stirs in her sleep feeling as though someone was shaking her when she threw her arms up to stretch while yawning and blinked awake hearing a, "Yeow!" Sitting up she rubbed her eyes and looked to her side seeing Donnie holding his chin. "Wha..Donnie? Oh, you're back." Letting out another yawn she swept her legs over the side of the couch and stretched her arms again. "How'd your mission go? Did you get hurt?" She asked noting him rubbing his chin.
"Not exactly. Have to remember to wake you up at a distance." He said under his breath with a chuckle before kissing the top of her head.
Kara smiled and got up to see Raph getting out the first aid kit and Mikey with a slightly bleeding arm. "Woah, what happened? Are you ok?" She moved over to him to make sure he was ok.
"Yeah, Rahzaar got lucky is all. It's just a scratch so nothing to worry about." Mikey said reassuringly making Kara smile more and gently pet his head. "So, I'm guessing the mission was a...success.." Kara looked up to see Karai and Leo enter while talking to one another and stood in the middle of the room and in Karai's path. She stopped in front of her and everyone grew silent as the tension in the air became thick. Both of them stared at each other in silence and just when Karai opened her mouth to speak, Kara held out her hand and smiled. "You showed your worth when facing Tigerclaw. You have my respect, friend." Everyone blinked in surprise but smiled when Karai gave a small smile to her and gripped her hand making Kara grin. "Welcome to Team Awesome. We're not recruiting anymore members but we'll be able to open a spot for ya." She said with a chuckle.
"It's actually..not bad." Karai looked around before turning to Leo.
"Awesome, right? This calls for a family hug. Bring it in-ow.." Mikey cringed in pain, holding his arms.
"Michelangelo! What happened?" Master Splinter walked in seeing his son was injured.
"It's just a scratch, Sensei. You should see the other guy." Mikey said with a cocky grin.
"What have you boys done? I thought I told you.." Master Splinter walked closer to them while Kara, Mikey, and Leo moved aside to reveal Karai to him.
"Miwa?" Master Splinter spoke soft in surprise.
Karai looked away, holding her arm as she slowly and nervously walked towards him before putting her arms around him. "Father.." She closed her eyes laying her head against his stomach.
Kara smiled softly knowing this was a lot for Master Splinter to take in but nodded her head once he held her back. She moved over to Donnie's side and smiled up at him, linking her arm around his and laying her head against his shoulder.
"See Sensei? I told you my plan would work." Leo said with a smile.
"Perhaps some things are worth the risk." Master Splinter let Karai go and looked down at her with fatherly love making Kara smile brightly. "Oh, this is too exciting. Welcome back to the family, Karai!" Kara shouted before going over to her and giving her a hug. Karai blinked in surprise but smiled and soon everyone else joined in on the hug making her laugh.
"Wait a minute...I just realized something.." Mikey said a loud in thought pushing everyone out of the way and moved Kara beside Karai. "...You two have the same name! Only need to get rid of the "I" in Karai's name then BAM, we have two Kara's." Mikey pointed out making both of them look at each other.
"Huh, what do you know...never thought of that." Kara said looking from Mikey to Karai with a grin making her smile.
"We have a lot of catching up to do but for now, it's late and we all should be heading to bed." Master Splinter spoke looking at everyone as they groaned disapprovingly.
"He's right. I should head home before it gets even later." Kara waved bye as she headed towards the exit but blinked when she felt a hand on her arm and looked back to see Donnie. "It's already too late and dangerous now that Shredder is out there hunting for us and Karai. If he finds you I don't know what I would do if he caught you..please stay over for tonight." Donnie gave her his sad, worried look which made her cringe at how adorable he looked and sighed but smiled, giving him a nod.
"Alright, I'll stay. Probably for the best, I suppose." She stretched her arms before giving him a kiss on the cheek. "I'll sleep in the living room tonight with Karai though, if that's ok with you?" She glanced over at Karai not wanting to make her feel uncomfortable or anything.
"Uh, sure. I guess." Karai rubbed her arm shyly not knowing what to do in her new home.
"Follow me, I should have some extra night clothes hidden here somewhere.." She muttered to herself while walking away. Everyone else was doing their own thing to get ready for bed, Leo getting extra pillows and blankets for both of them.
When both of them came out they both had changed into night clothes, Karai wearing panda pajamas, white tank top with a panda face and black pants with white paw prints, and Kara wore her plain, long sleeved, baggy shirt and shorts.
Leo's eyes widened at Karai, his face turning a pink tint which didn't go unnoticed by Kara making her grin but it soon disappeared remembering Dragan had a crush on him. She looked away wondering what exactly his feelings were for her.
"Well..um...g-goodnight." Leo said before leaving to his room. He glanced over at them with his hand on his door. "If you need anything d-don't be afraid to ask."
"We got it, ok? Goodnight Leo." Kara rolled her eyes and smiled at Leo as he began to close his door.
"Ok, just remember-"
"Goodnight, Leo!" Kara said more sternly making him shut his door all the way. She shook her head and let out a soft sigh making Karai chuckle.
"Is he always like that?"
Kara shrugged as she sat down on one side of the couch, laying the blanket over her lap. "Being a dork? Yeah, most of the time. Wait til you see him watching his favorite show. He goes full nerd on ya." Kara said with a smile before hugging her knees and laying her head against them. "I know this must be hard on you..starting a new life and all..how are you feeling?"
Karai looked her way nervously never having to be able to share her feelings before, which Kara could clearly tell. "You don't have to answer if you don't want to."
"It's just that..I've never told anyone how I felt..not even my fa...Shredder. I was always taught to keep it in. To stay focused. Be strong.." Karai lowered her head, burying it in her knees.
Karai looked up feeling something on her shoulder and saw Kara with her hand on it and a smile on her face. "We're here for you, Karai. That's what families are for, to help one another. Give it time and soon you'll come around."
Karai gave her a smile as she went back to the other side of the couch and laid down. "Now, we better get some sleep. I'm pretty sure we have a big day ahead of us. Goodnight."
"Goodnight." Karai said softly before following her lead, closing her eyes to sleep.
Next morning everyone was up and called for training in the dojo.
With new eyes watching them, the guys were getting into their training to show what they were made of, well, almost all of them.
Kara sat beside Karai as they guys sparred, Donnie and Raph in one side and Mikey and Leo in another.
Kara grinned as it was obvious Leo was taking it more seriously than usual while Mikey, well, Mikey was just being himself and having a goodtime.
"Come on, Mikey, focus." Leo said before charging and attacking with one sword but Mikey kept evading having Leo bring out his other one but he still couldn't hit Mikey, who gave a slap to Leo's face.
Leo kicked Mikey away making Mikey hold his arm in pain. "Ow, dude!"
"Sorry, I didn't-"
A water balloon was thrown at Leo's face making Kara fall to the floor, pounding on it to try and keep herself from laughing so hard at his expression.
"Aw yea, son! Never underestimate the water balloon arm!" Mikey danced around Leo humming a song while pointing at him.
Leo glanced back at Karai who let out a giggle while Master Splinter smacked his face before Leo glared at Mikey and tackled him, both of them rolling around the dojo bringing Donnie into it.
Raph stared at them before shrugging his shoulders, while dropping his weapons, and dove right into the chaos. All the while Kara was down in tears, laughing at them all.
"Is this how training always goes?" Karai asked a loud.
"Yame! My sons, and daughters." Master Splinter glanced over at Kara and Miwa with a small smile, Kara now at full attention. "That is all for today."
Kara and them bowed their heads before she stood up and followed after the guys, putting her arm over Leo's shoulder. "Wow, you really showed Karai, huh? Acting all tough and serious." She said in a baby voice while poking his cheek making him glare at her and run after her, Kara laughed and ran away from him.
He eventually gave up making Kara smile triumphantly before she looked away in thought and gently placed her hand on his shoulder. "We should talk..come with me."
Leo took her to the only place he knew there would be privacy, his room.
Closing the door and turning the light on he looked at her. "What is it?"
Leaning against the doorway she thought of her words carefully before looking up at him. "What're your feelings towards Karai?"
He blinked in surprise at the question and rubbed the back of his head, his cheeks turning a shade of pink. "I uh..don't really know how to answer that..I mean..I like her and all but.." He didn't know how to finish his sentence. Yeah, he had a crush on her when they first met but now that they were siblings he didn't what he felt.
"I'm just saying..if this goes beyond crush to you have feelings for her..well.." She rubbed the back of her neck trying to think of a way to explain Dragan's feelings without mentioning her name. "There's someone who has a crush on you and..it'll be best if you think over your feelings before that person shares theirs and they get heartbroken."
"Wait, someone has a crush..o-on me?" He blinked in surprise the shade of pink growing darker. "Who?"
"I can't tell you their name, dork, but I can tell you..you've given them a good impression." Kara smiled before leaving him be.
She walked past the dojo and was able to hear Master Splinter and Karai speaking.
"After all of this time haven't you wanted revenge?"
"After all this time I have learned that revenge only leads to more pain." Master Splinter spoke calmly to Miwa.
"But I've seen you fight, father. You can take him out."
"We are safe here and we are finally together, my daughter. That is all that matters. Not revenge."
Kara looked down in thought knowing revenge was on Karai's mind she knew she would want to act on it but didn't know when.
Waving bye to everyone as they retired to bed she walked out and to her scooter but leaned against the wall where it was and waited patiently in case she happened to act tonight.
Thinking she wouldn't tonight, Kara went to climb on her scooter but stopped when she heard Leo speaking.
"Going after Shredder alone is a bad idea." Kara peeked over the side of the wall and watched Leo jump down and land in front of her.
"Don't try to stop me, Leo."
"I want to go with you."
"What?" Karai looked surprised.
"You're right, Shredder will never stop hunting us. The only way for us to be safe is to take him down."
"So much of my life has been about revenge. I can't ask you risk your life too."
"Let me help."
When Karai looked down Kara thought she was going to give in and let him join her but blinked as she moved close to him, placing her hand on his plastron, and was face to face with him.
Kara sighed in annoyance knowing what she was doing and knew Leo was falling for it.
"Sorry, Leo." Karai punched his plastron before slamming an egg against her calf as powder exploded from it and threw it upwards at Leo's face causing him to cough and pass out.
When Karai ran past her Kara let her know she was there.
"Nice trick, Karai. Though I doubt it'll work a second time." Kara hopped down beside her and crossed her arms.
"Let me guess, you want to help too?"
"Wow, you've only been on this team for half a day and you can already read my mind." She said in a light sarcastic tone before looking away. "I do, and I agree with Leo, but it's more personal for me."
When Karai didn't say anything but gave her a confused look, Kara looked down before lifting her shirt up, revealing her scarred stomach.
"Here's a reminder since you forgot. Shredder almost took my life away. Deep down I have always wanted to get back at him for it but I knew there were other things that were more important. Either way I'm coming with you so you're pretty much stuck with me." Kara crossed her arms with a grin on her face.
Karai stared down at her wound recalling when she told her about it but didn't want to believe her at the time. She looked up at her in sorrow before rolling her eyes and sighing in defeat. "Fine, you can come, just don't get in my way."
"Alright, I can do that, but I have a faster way of getting there." Kara showed Karai her scooter before both of them climbed on and drove off. "This ends tonight..." Karai said in determination under her breath as they sped off through the tunnels.
Hiding her scooter a ways from Shredder's lair, both of them climbed the top of the building next to it. "Now, I may not be a ninja but I'm pretty good at the parkour stuff so you won't need to worry about me slowing you down. By the way, what you did to Leo..hilarious." She whispered with a laugh as she and Karai jumped to the roof of Shredder's lair.
Seeing the footbots guarding the roof Kara snuck around the side and took out one while Karai took the other two down from above.
Kara let Karai go down first, seeing Shredder sitting at his throne and waited for her to take him out but noticed Karai didn't move.
"Karai." Shredder's voice came from the shadows and Kara narrowed her eyes as he revealed himself.
"Shredder.." Karai blinked in surprise when the armor sitting down moved and grabbed her from behind.
"You arrived sooner than I expected."
Karai loosened the armor's grip on her and slipped her arms out of its grasp before stabbing her sword into its stomach causing it to malfunction. "The time has come for me to say goodbye Shredder." She did a cartwheel before bringing out another egg and threw it at Shredder before going to attack.
While they were fighting Kara began to lower herself inside and landed on her feet but stumbled to her knees. Shaking it off she slipped on her gloves and waited for the right moment to intervene watching as Shredder was mainly blocking and evading her attacks.
"Foolish, child, I have taught you everything you know! You hold no surprises for me." Shredder said as he caught Karai's sword.
Thinking this was a good time Kara ran at him and jumped up, planting her feet lightly on his back before pushing herself upwards and over him, sending a kick across his face, twisting herself to land on her feet and her hand. "But I do." She said with a smirk on her face.
"I thought I said not to get in my way!" Karai shouted at her making Kara smile childishly at her.
"Just because you said it doesn't mean I have to listen. Besides, friends help one another." Kara said, holding out her arm, her hand balled up in a fist.
Karai gave her a small smile, touching her arm with Kara's, Kara taking a step back to let her continue.
Karai managed to get a hit on Shredder but something seemed to snap in him as he yelled out in anger and slapped her away causing her to fall on her back.
Slamming his weapon near her face he shouted in anger. "This has gone far enough!"
Kara ran at him and raised her fist to attack but he grabbed her fist with his other hand and threw her into the middle of the room. She moved to her feet, the lights in the room beginning to turn on one by one revealing the room was filled with footbots and Shredder's henchmen.
"Still no sign of the turtles." She heard Tigerclaw say.
"They can't be far behind." Shredder threw Karai to Tigerclaw. "Take her to Stockman. It is time to begin the experiment."
"What about her, Master Shredder?" Tigerclaw looked over at Kara as she stared at the enemies around her, mentally counting how many footbots were in the room.
"Teach the girl a lesson." Shredder stared down at her.
Kara felt his eyes on her and she turned her head staring right back into his eyes, glaring darkly at him.
"Make sure there's barely any life in those eyes when you are through." He said in disgust before walking away but stopped a moment. "Let Karai watch. She needs to be reminded where her loyalties lie."
He left the room leaving them all behind as Kara placed her hands on her hips and let out a sigh. "I have to fight you all, huh? Guess I have no choice.." She tore the bottom part of her shirt off all the way around showing off part of her stomach as she began to tie the large strip around her eyes.
"You know there's a saying to never underestimate your opponent? Well, you all are in for a huge surprise." Kara said with a smirk on her face she got into her fighting stance.
"That look.." She heard Fishface say but wasn't able to finish his train of thought as Tigerclaw roared for them all to attack.
As they all got closer her smirk widened, she clenching her fist and moved to attack.
-With Shredder-
"Stockman, is the mutagen ready?"
"Prepared to your spezzification. This zzzerpent DNA is ready."
"No, you wouldn't!?" Karai's eyes widened with fear, Tigerclaw taping her mouth shut.
"Make sure she is secure." Shredder ordered Tigerclaw as he locked her in the cage, a footbot hoisting her up.
"You're more ruthless than I thought. Mutating your own cub."
"I have no intention of mutating her. She is bait. When the turtles attempt to rescue her I will drop them into the mutagen. This will mutate them into mindless serpents. I want Splinter to witness his own pupils become one of the rat's deadliest predators then when his spirit is broken I will shatter his body."
Tigerclaw's ears twitched hearing the softest of groans and glanced behind him at a shadowed body. "And what of her? I know you saw her fighting back at the lair."
Shredder glanced over at the girl before up at Karai. "There may be hope for her after all."
Tigerclaw turned away and sniffed the air. "I smell the rat." Tigerclaw brought out his weapon and shot it up at the roof as the light luminated the area around it, revealing Splinter before he jumped to the ground, landing on his feet and hand, the turtles following his lead.
"Welcome, my old friend."
"Let my daughter go."
"You are welcome to rescue her if you can." Shredder said as footbots began climbing out of different hiding spots. "It is not Karai you all should be worried about." Shredder continued before nodding to Tigerclaw who walked away and picked something up. When he came back he lifted up the mangled body of Kara by her head. Bruises, cuts, and claw marks covered her body. Her clothes were torn, even her gloves were damaged to the point that they were no longer useable. In her hands were pieces of her taser and pepperspray. He ripped what was left of the strip from her eyes as he stared at the shocked faces of the turtles and the rat.
"She fought bravely, I give her that, but it was futile in the end." Tigerclaw stared at the girl hearing the short gasps of breath as he recalled her standing up despite her injuries.
Kara panted heavily, her body worn from all the fighting as she stepped over the fallen footbots she had taken down, clenching her taser in one hand and her pepperspray in the other, staring at the remainder of her opponents. Hearing the struggle and cries of Karai she turned her head towards her and gave her a smile. "Stay strong." She mouthed to Karai. "Our friends will save us." She managed to mouth out before Rahzaar attacked, letting out a scream as he slashed at her arm before she retaliated with her taser.
He tossed her towards them, Donnie rushing to her side and moved her away checking to see if there was a pulse. "She's barely breathing.." Donnie looked up worriedly at the others. Feeling movement he looked down to see Kara barely opening her eyes. "D-Donnie.." She said barely above a whisper.
He leaned down smiling wide to see her awake, tears forming in his eyes. "Yes, what is it, Kara?"
"S-Sa..ve..K-Karai.." She slowly closed her eyes and passed out but was still alive. He made sure to move her out of harm's way and glared angrily at Shredder and Tigerclaw, bringing out his weapon.
Splinter leaped towards Shredder, the guys following behind as they all begin to attack.
"Yes! Fight me, Rat!" Shredder shouted crossing his weapons together, charging at him.
The guys were handling their own well.
Donnie attacked a footbot, distracting it with his staff before slicing it in two and glared towards Tigerclaw, taking a step towards him but blinked in surprise when he was suddenly trapped in a triangular box, Raph and Mikey meeting the same fate.
The footbots began restraining Splinter with rope, forcing him to his knees as the sling rope around his wrists and neck.
Leo struggled with two to three footbots as they force him back into one of the traps but was quicker, using his sword to keep the trap from securing and freed himself before slicing at a chain and lifted himself up to Karai.
"Hang on Karai!" Leo shouted as he landed on top of the cage and removed the tape from her mouth.
Karai smiled up at him, thanking him. He smiled down at her but blinked hearing Master Splinter shouting his name and looked over to see Shredder flying at him.
He ducked down as Shredder's blades sliced the chain off, the force throwing Leo and Shredder to the sides and Karai down into the mutagen tank.
"Miwa!"
"Karai! Noo!"
Everyone watched in horror as Karai's body began to mutate, the cage being thrown out of the tank, and soon, a serpent mutant climbed out of the tank and fell over the side. Splinter managed to free his arm and sliced one of the footbots before throwing his sword at another, catching Miwa's mutated form in his arms.
"Miwa...my child." He stared down in sadness at her.
She woke up and smacked him away before slithering down to the ground and attacking everything in sight.
Leo took this opportunity to free Donnie, both of them going to free their other brothers.
Suddenly the place caught on fire and everything was exploding.
Donnie ran over to Kara and picked her up in his arms. "We gotta get out of here!"
"Not without Karai." Leo said staring up at her.
"What about Kara?! She's severely injured!" Donnie said angrily.
"Karai! You must listen to me. We must go!" Master Splinter shouted up at her.
Karai hissed and wrapped herself around him, ready to strike.
"Daughter..please." He looked up at her with pleading eyes making her stop and stare at him.
"Father...?"
He gave her a hopeful smile but she let him go and slithered off, spraying acid at Raph's face making him scream and fall over, fleeing into the city, Leo following after her.
Mikey held onto Kara while Donnie quickly helped Raph to clear the venom from his eyes.
"Argh, stop, I can see fine now." Raph said in annoyance.
Everyone piled into the Shellraiser, Raph driving while everyone sat in the back, Donnie holding Kara close to him on the floor.
"This is all my fault. Should of stopped her when I had the chance. I'm sorry, Sensei. Sensei?"
Master Splinter said nothing, just sat in Raph's chair staring down at the floor.
"You can make a retromutagen for Karai, right?" Mikey asked Donnie.
"I dunno, Mikey. I hope so.." He gently stroked Kara's cheek.
When they finally returned to the Lair Donnie had Raph and Mikey bring Kara into the lab while he prepared to heal her injuries.
"She's lost a lot of blood. Mikey, wash your hands and press down on her open wounds. We'll need to stop the bleeding." Donnie ordered.
"Will she be ok?" Mikey asked worriedly.
"The wounds are not as deep as last time but she's been out for some time now so the wound hasn't been able to properly close but don't worry, she'll be fine. Just listen to what I tell you, ok?"
Mikey nodded as they began to work on her, Raph helping in whatever way he could.
Leo and Master Splinter were left alone to let them deal with what happened to Karai.
It wasn't til later in the evening when they decided to check up on Kara.
"How is she doing?" Master Splinter asked quietly, looking down at her.
"None of her vital organs are injured so she'll be fine. She's lost a lot of blood so we'll have to feed her liquified foods for the time being.." Donnie spoke softly staring down at Kara's sleeping form. Her breathing had returned to normal as well as her heartbeat.
Master Splinter placed his hand on top of Kara's head and sighed softly. "Get well, Kara." He said before leaving them be.
Leo gave Donnie a small pat on his shoulder before leaving as well.
Donnie stared down at Kara and took her hand into his and gave it a gentle kiss, watching her sleep, falling asleep himself by her side.
Sooo? How'd I do? Betcha you weren't expecting that, were ya?! Hehe. To all the Dragan fans don't worry, there will be more of her in the next chapter. Hope you all enjoyed it! Please rate/comment. All feedback is appreciated! :D
