Chapter 8 – Quality Time
"Alright girls, first of all I want you to defend yourselves against these robot soldiers. Begin!" Sir Albert yelled before an army of robot soldiers appeared in the castle gardens and surrounded Kimberley, Riley, Violet and Lila.
"Uh, is this really a good idea?" Mikey mused as he, Leo, Donnie, Raph, Master Splinter and Sir Albert stood on a balcony over looking the castle gardens.
"Fear not, Michelangelo." Sir Albert smiled, "I've trained these girls myself. They can handle themselves."
"Princepessa Potere!" The girls screamed before each of their pendants started to glow and engulfed them in a bright white light.
When the light faded Lilly was wearing a white bikini top with matching short shorts that had white silk hanging from the back of the shorts and reached her ankles. She wore very tall white boots that reached the middle of her thighs and had the ying and yang symbol on them. She had elbow length white gloves and the same silk around her hips surrounded the rest of her arms that went around her collarbone and drifted up to form a tall silk collar. She also wore a tall tiara in her hair, which was now tied high up and flowed down her back. In her left hand she held a small white shield and had a small white sceptre in her right hand that had gold wings near the end of it.
Kim revealed to be wearing a short dark blue and white dress that reached the middle of her thighs with a long dark blue cloak that reached the back of her knees and was tied around her waist with a black belt and had a small collar. She had dark blue, elbow length gloves with black armour on and had three rings on each hand. Her hair was curled, let down and flowed as it did and had dark blue ribbon around her head in her hair with the Phoenix royal gem in the centre of the ribbon, her chest, the bottom of the blade of her sword and at her belt. She wore tall, thigh high dark blue boots and had a long black case for a sword at her hip. In her left hand she held a tall, thin sword that was designed with blue and silver steel and had a gold and blue handle that swirled around itself to the butt of the sword.
The light faded to reveal Violet in a short light purple and dark purple dress that reached her thighs with a light purple and dark purple scarf wrapped around her collarbone. She had purple gladiator sandals on and had gold bracelets around her wrists. Some of her hair was pulled back and tied with a dark purple bow, the hair on the sides of her face was tied and most of the hair flowed down her back. There was also a gold and purple decorative hairpin on the right side of her head. In her hands she held a big purple bow and had a big bag of arrows across her back.
Finally, Riley was wearing a red ¾ shirt with matching red short shorts as the light disappeared. Her arms were covered in white fabric and the same white fabric was tied around the back of her shorts and drifted down to the middle of her legs. Her shorts also had a pure gold belt and buckle. She wore thigh high red leather boots and her hair was let down. Her shirt stopped below her bodice and brown leather straps drifted across her rib cage and met at her chest bone then went up and formed a brown leather collar around her neck. In her hands she held a new pair of tall sais made of pure silver and the handles were made of pure gold and were shaped in the heads of dragons with red gem stone eyes.
"The princesses' own royal weapons." Sir Albert muttered proudly at the weapons.
"They look hot." Raph said bluntly
Everyone looked over at him and he shrugged with a grin.
"What? They do." He said
The girls stood back to back in the centre of the robot soldiers, watching them, waiting for them to make the first move. Lilly looked over at Violet and winked.
"Do they have a plan already?" Donnie gasped
Leo watched as Violet winked back at Lilly and laughed. "It would seem so." He remarked, leaning against the brick of the balcony.
Within a matter of seconds the soldiers jumped into the air and Lilly used her powers and literally blew them away.
"GO!" Kim screamed as they each jumped and separated from each other.
Lilly landed the closest to the balcony and stayed in a crouched position. She eyed the soldiers surrounding her until her ears perked up on something and she quickly back flipped into the air, grabbed hold of an outstretched arm and was pulled around in a circle and kicked at all the soldiers.
The arm released her and she flew through the air, stretched out her right arm to spring her from her fall to the ground and flipped back onto her feet. Lilly giggled and turned around and gave thumbs up to Violet who smiled and waved back at her.
"Impressive." Sir Albert said with a smile.
"Riley, look out!"
Riley gasped as a giant vine came past her holding one of the soldiers. She looked over her shoulder and saw Kim standing there with her glowing green eyes. Riley smirked at her and jumped over Kim's left shoulder and took out three soldiers that tried to sneak up on her sister.
"This is too easy!" Riley cried out with a laugh as she took out more soldiers.
"Lets take this up a notch then." Sir Albert grinned before he clapped his hands and purple energy sprang from his hands and surrounded each solider, tripling each one and increasing their speed, agility and skill.
"Gee, thanks Riley!" Violet yelled as she froze a group of oncoming soldiers.
Kim was surrounded by at least a two dozen soldiers and was a little apprehensive. She ducked out of the way of an arrow and flew through the earth and appeared out on the other side of the group and held up her arms and wildly moved them, controlling the vines from trees and the earth to grab hold of each soldier. When they were all gone Kim breathed a sigh of relief before she clenched her eyes tight and grimaced.
'Something's wrong.' She thought, looking around at her sisters in panic.
Master Splinter noticed the sudden change in Kim and raised an eyebrow. He turned to Sir Albert and realised he didn't see the change.
"Something is wrong." He said
Kim looked around and saw more soldiers running over to her. She narrowed her eyes and waved her arms around and saw her powers weren't working.
"What?" She whispered before she quickly pulled out one of her katanas and blocked a few ninja stars.
Riley saw a group of soldiers advancing on Violet and Lilly quietly and ran over to the group and prepared to scorch them. But when she raised her arms up, a massive explosion engulfed the gardens and blew the surrounding soldiers, as well as Violet and Lilly, into the side of the castle.
Sir Albert noticed this and quickly clapped his hands together and all of the soldiers disappeared. Kim was going head-to-head with a soldier and they were forcing their katanas against each other when the soldier suddenly vanished and Kim fell forward onto her stomach. She looked up and saw Riley staring at her hands in fright and Lilly and Violet were slowly getting to their feet with the help of Donnie and Mikey. She stood to her feet and walked over to everyone by the castle.
"Are you two alright?" She asked
"Yeah, just a headache." Lilly grumbled, clutching her head.
Riley snapped out of her daze and ran to Violet and Lilly and threw her arms around their shoulders tightly.
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" She cried
"Hey don't worry, Riles." Violet comforted, "No harm done. We know you didn't mean it. Besides, I remember freezing you and Kim when I first got my new power, so consider this pay back."
"But I almost killed you!" Riley screamed, pulling back from the hug.
"Almost." Lilly giggled, "Focus on that. We're fine and we're not dead."
"I think that's enough training for today girls." Sir Albert said as he trotted over.
"That's enough training for the week." Lord Drake chuckled as he walked over.
"Lord Drake!" Sir Albert cried and bowed, along with Master Splinter and the guys.
"Please don't bow." Drake smiled at the group. "That's so formal. Anyway, I just wanted to come over and congratulate my girls on their training. They've done a fine job in such a short time. You've done well, Albert."
"Why thank you sir." Sir Albert said
"Now I better let you all run along. You must all have plans with each other." Drake said, "So have fun and I will see you girls later tomorrow."
"Where is it?" Riley growled as she crawled further under her bed. "How hard is it to lose a giant, hard cover, metal bound multicoloured folder?"
Riley had just arrived back home when she had a sudden urge to write. She had kept a journal that contained everything from songs to poems and just day-to-day entries from when she was 4 up until yesterday. Sure, she obviously had multiple folders that she kept hidden in her wardrobe, but this was the most recent folder and she was determined to keep it hidden and away from certain eyes, Raphael's. It wasn't that she was embarrassed by the entries, some of which were misspelled by her 4-year-old counterpart, but…okay she was embarrassed. However, Riley also didn't want Raph to learn first hand what she and her sisters had to go through in the past. It was the past, after all. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called "the present."
"Dammit folder! Where are you?" Riley growled, punching the bedpost on her left before crying out in pain. "And now the bed's damaged my hand! Stupid bed!"
Raph snickered as he watched his girlfriend from outside her apartment window. He found it amusing watching her have a fight with inanimate objects whilst under her bed.
A thought occurred to Raph and he smirked, beginning to slowly open the window, surprised that it was open. When it was wide enough for him to squeeze through, he carefully jumped into the room and landed gracefully on the carpet before slowly shutting the window behind him.
"I swear if Lilly took it she's dead!" Riley cried angrily as she scooted further under her bed. "'Don't worry Riles, I never snoop. Trust me!' Ha, yeah right." She scoffed, imitating her younger sister as she did.
Raph tried desperately to silence his chuckle and was close to breaking point. He slowly stepped up behind Riley, careful not to get hit by her legs and bent down so he was right by her hips.
"Hi there." He said
Riley yelped and jumped before whacking her head against the bottom of the bed and whining in pain. Raph couldn't contain it anymore, he started rolling on the floor in hysterics and couldn't stop when all he saw were twitching legs and hear multiple curses.
His attention was quickly brought to a multicoloured folder that was slowly being pushed out from under Riley's bed as she moved further under the bed.
"Riley? I think-"
"Stupid ninja turtle, think this is funny, huh?" Riley growled
"Riley is this what you're-" Raph started, picking up the folder.
"I'll show him. Oh, I'll show him." Riley continued
June 25th, 1989
As years go by
A lonely heart
Although you've gone
We'll never part.
As days go by
A silent tear
Sweet memories of you
I hold so dear.
A mother so strong, so caring and true
These are the memories I cherish of you.
Your spirit you left
A part of me
Yes I can feel it more constantly.
It guides me through, day by day
The heartache I've felt, since you went away.
Once again, together we'll be
Only this time it will be for eternity.
"Riley…what is-" Raph gasped
"We'll see who'll be laughing."
Raph took advantage of the distraction and flipped through the folder some more and his eyes widened at a particular page.
Feburary 2nd, 2007
If love hadn't brought us together, would we be content now? Would we be better off if we hadn't met on that day? Questions like these are useless to ask. But I wonder anyway.
'This was written a month after we met.' Raph thought in surprise.
"That's it! I give up!" Riley announced as she slowly squirmed out from under her bed. "I cannot find my-" Her eyes landed on the folder in Raph's hands. "Folder."
Riley gasped and quickly snatched the folder out of his hands before he could even blink.
"What are you doing here, Raph?" Riley demanded as she walked over to her desk by her door and placed the folder in the top draw.
"W-What was that?" He asked
"Nothing you should be concerned with." Riley replied softly, not moving from her desk with her head down.
Raph smiled sadly and gently walked over to Riley. He was about to place his hand on her left shoulder when she quickly lifted her head and faced him with a forced smile plastered on.
"So, what can I help you with, Raph? What brings you here?" She asked
"C'mon." Raph said, gently grabbing Riley's hand and bringing her close to him. "You can't fool me, Kitten."
"I don't know what you're talking about." Riley replied
"'Sweet memories of you I hold so dear.'" Raph recited in a whisper, causing Riley to flinch. "You want to talk about it?"
Riley sighed and opened her desk draw, taking out her folder and handing it over to Raph without looking him in the eyes.
"This is one of the many folders I have. It contains songs, poems, thoughts and diary entries ever since I was 4." She explained softly. "That one was about my mother's death."
"Oh." Was all Raph said, "What about the other one?"
Riley's head shot up. "You read another one?" She asked as she stared at the wall in front of her.
"…Yeah, I did. I'm sorry I did, but I want to know everythin' 'bout ya. So I looked through it."
"Which one?"
"'Questions like these are useless to ask.'" Raph recited
"'But I wonder anyway.'" Riley finished with a smile.
"You wrote it a month afta we met."
Riley finally looked over at Raph and nodded. "Yeah, I did." She walked over to the edge of her bed, sat down, and patted the spot next to her.
Raph wordlessly followed the silent command and sat down with her. Riley brought her legs up and crossed them underneath her. She took the folder out of Raph's hands and flipped to a different page.
September 13th, 2007
Do you ever wonder if we make the moments in our lives or if the moments in our lives make us? If you could go back and change one thing about your life, would you? And if you did, would that change make your life better? Or would that change ultimately break your heart? Or break the heart of another? Or would you choose an entirely different path? Or would you change just one thing, just one moment? One moment that you've always wanted back.
"What was this one?" Raph asked softly, his arm wrapping around Riley's waist.
"This one was something I wrote-"
"I can see that." Raph chuckled
Riley poked out her tongue and giggled. "Recognise the date?"
"No. Why? Is it significant?" Raph asked
"It should be. I wrote this the day you and the guys found out we had powers. The day you ripped out my heart and I left to live with April and Casey." Riley replied
Raph's heart clenched at the answer he received and pulled Riley closer, kissing the top of her head.
"I'm sorry." He whispered
"That's okay. I'm over it now. Besides, I have you now." Riley said quietly, looking up at Raph and kissing his lips softly.
"Why are you showing me this? I thought you didn't want me to see it." Raph asked as he took the folder.
"Well I didn't, at first. But, I want to know more about you too. It would only be fair if I told you more about me. What's better than showing you this?" Riley explained
"What's this one?" Raph asked as he pointed to the final entry in the folder.
Riley looked at the entry Raph indicated and raised an eyebrow.
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush.
Of quiet birds in circled flight
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there, I did not die.
"There's no date on this one." Raph murmured, "When did you write it?"
"I-I didn't." Riley stuttered
"What do you mean you didn't write it?" Raph asked, looking over at Riley.
"I mean…that's not mine." She looked up at Raph. "I didn't write it." She looked back at the entry. "And that's not my handwriting."
Riley sprang to her feet and ran over to her desk again and grabbed a piece of paper. She ran back over to the bed and held up the paper to the folder.
"This is a letter Violet wrote to me a couple of weeks ago." Riley said
Raph looked over at his girlfriend with a raised eyebrow.
"What? We weren't talking, so she decided to apologise via a letter." She explained before scanning the two notes. "This…this is Violet's handwriting."
Knock, knock, knock
"Hey guys." Violet greeted, poking her head through the room. "I made lasagne for dinner and I'm just heading down to see Donnie. Is that okay?"
Raph and Riley stared with their mouths open at Violet who smiled nervously.
"What? Do I have flour on my face?" She asked
"No. No you don't. I-it's just…you're here." Riley replied, shaking out of her daze.
Violet raised an eyebrow. "Yes. Yes, I am. But now I'm going to help Donnie with his new invention so I'll…see you later." She said in confusion before she shut the bedroom door.
"Right!" Riley cried, snapping her folder shut and placing it back in her desk draw. "This means nothing, it's okay. Let's forget it."
Raph nodded and walked over to Riley, wrapping his arms around her waist. Riley sighed in content and leaned back against his plastron.
"Thank you." Raph whispered before he started kissing her neck.
"No, thank you." Riley replied before she spun around and kissed Raph on the lips and walked both of them to her bed.
Lilly smiled as she watched Mikey skateboard along the pipes in the sewers. She laughed when he waved at her during a tricky move and knew he was showing off for her, but she didn't mind. She liked that he wanted to show off to her. She smiled once more and sat down on the pavement of the sidewalk and looked down at the sewer water below.
"Hey Mikey, do you ever have those days where you look at your reflection and hate what you see?"
Mikey paused in his skateboarding and listened. His left arm was keeping him up on a pipe and his right arm was clutching the bottom of the board.
"I mean really hate it? You see nothing but your shortcomings, your failures. Nothing but your faults."
"That's only because you are looking into sewer water, babe." Mikey chuckled before he noticed the serious look in Lilly's eyes.
He jumped off the pipe and ran over to Lilly, skidding to her side in seconds. He gently lifted Lilly's head up and looked her in the eyes.
"I see no faults."
Lilly smiled and kissed the palm of his hand that was covering her cheek.
"What's up, Lilly? Where'd this come from?" Mikey asked worriedly.
"Nothing. Just something that's been bugging me for awhile." Lilly replied
Mikey removed his hand and sat against a wall, pulling Lilly to sit on his lap. He placed his hands on the side of her face, kissed her lips and leaned his forehead against hers.
"I'm all ears, babe." He said softly.
"You're so good to me, Mikey. And after all that's happened and all I've done." Lilly whispered
"What are you talking about 'all you've done'? Babe, you've done nothing wrong."
"Do you want a list?" Lilly giggled
"There's no list."
"I lied to you about my powers, I lied to your family about who I am, I got you involved with the Shredder again, the foot followed us to your lair and destroyed it, the foot and the Shredder captured and hurt you guys and caused a lot of emotional hurt to you and your family and friends." Lilly cried
Mikey just looked at Lilly before he leaned in again and kissed her.
"None of that was your fault."
Lilly raised an eyebrow at him. "The lying was."
"Only because you were worried about how we'd react. And it was justified by my stupid older brothers." Mikey chuckled, "Those aren't faults. You have none."
"Even me being a freak with powers who is a princess of an unknown place?"
"Ohhhh." Mikey said, "Is that what this is about?"
Lilly nodded and leaned against Mikey's plastron.
"For starters, you're talking to a giant turtle whose been called a freak many times before. Trust me when I say you're not a freak, you're special. Now, so what if you are a princess of another dimension? I only care about you."
"But I've ruined your life. If I was the eldest, you would have to marry me."
"Why?"
"Because the law states that a queen cannot rule without a king. If something happened to my sisters, I would have to become queen. I couldn't deal with the fact that I'd be forcing you into a marriage and a life and position you never even wanted or asked for. That wouldn't be fair."
"You're acting like you have to be queen."
"But there's always the possibility!" Lilly cried, "I could be queen one day and you could be king. We could be forced to marry and you would have all these responsibilities and have no time for your family and-"
Lilly found herself unable to speak by Mikey's lips crashing onto hers.
"If, and that's a pretty big if by the way, you had to become queen, I'd become your king." Mikey said as he pulled away.
"R-really? You'd do that for me?" Lilly gasped, looking into Mikey's clear blue eyes.
"Of course, babe. I love you more than anything. I want you in my life, and if that means being a king and helping you rule Rayon, then I'll do it. You're important to me."
"But what about your family?"
"They'd understand." Mikey sighed, "Besides, I could sneak away back to Earth when we both wanted. You know magic. Maybe you could just freeze the world so we could go home and unfreeze them when we came back."
Lilly giggled. "I love you, Michelangelo. More than anything."
"I love you too, Lila." Mikey replied before he pulled Lilly to him and kissed her.
"Hey Leo? Are you okay?" Kim asked her boyfriend as they sat on the couch in the turtles' lair and watched another movie.
Leo blinked out of his daze and looked over at Kim's concerned face.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Why?"
"Because I've been talking to you for the last 5 minutes and you haven't said anything." Kim explained
"Yeah, she even started saying weird things to get your attention like how she's in love with Raph and was only dating you to make him jealous." Violet called from Donnie's lab.
"Mind your own business!" Kim sang loudly.
"No promises!" Violet sang back before she shut the door.
"So, you like Raph huh?" Leo joked with a smirk.
Kim slapped his arm. "Ew! Yeah right. And stop changing the subject." She added, "Now what's eating away at you?"
"Nothing, honestly."
Kim raised her eyebrow at Leo and Leo sighed.
"Nothing gets past you, huh?" He muttered
"You could say that." Kim replied before placing a hand on Leo's shoulder. "What are you thinking about?"
"Just the future is all." Leo finally admitted after a moment's silence.
"The future? Why?"
Leo looked into Kim's eyes and smiled gently.
"I do that a lot when something major happens in my life." He explained
"Major?" Kim mused before she gaped. "You mean me? Or do you mean my being a princess?"
Leo looked down and didn't say anything. Kim sighed and moved over and sat on Leo's lap, gently grabbing Leo's face to look at her.
"This is about our fight the other day." She said quietly
"No…yes, I mean…no…" Leo sighed and hung his head again. "I don't know."
"Are you thinking about the future and what it will be like since I'm the heir to the throne?"
Leo didn't say anything and Kim's heart clenched.
"Are you thinking whether or not I'm in that future?"
Leo's head snapped up faster than the speed of light. "No!" He cried
Kim blinked in surprise and confusion and Leo calmed down.
"I mean, no I haven't thought about whether or not you're in my future, because I know you're there. I want you in my future." Leo explained
Kim smiled and got off Leo and stood up, taking his hands in hers and pulling him up to stand too.
"What I said the other day…about having a choice and giving up the throne…I didn't mean it!" Leo cried, pulling his hands away from Kim's. "I don't want that."
"Then what do you want, Leo?" Kim asked before walking over to Leo and placing her hand on his cheek. "Please tell me what you want." Leo said nothing. "Leo, please. You know I'd do anything for you. Please tell me what it is you want me to do to make you happy and I'll do it. Leo, please tell me." She begged with tears threatening to fall.
"I-I…" Leo sighed and dropped his head. "I don't know."
Kim dropped her hand and backed away from Leo, a few tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Well…when you do know, come find me." She whispered before she orbed away, the wind and leaves shaking Leo out of his staring contest with the floor.
"I'm sorry, Kim, but I just don't know." He said
"Leonardo."
Leo turned around and saw Master Splinter standing there behind the couch. He motioned for him to follow as he walked back to his room and Leo did as told. The two walked into Master Splinter's room and Leo kneeled in front of his father as his father lit some candles and sat down in front of Leo.
"What is troubling you, my son?" He asked, "Because I have just witnessed an unusual event between you and Kimberley."
Leo sighed for what felt like the hundredth time and stumbled on what to say to his father.
"Well it's…it's everything, Sensei." He said
"What is 'everything'?" Master Splinter asked
"Everything!" Leo cried frustrated before calming down. "Lord Drake the other day talked about our relationships with the girls…and the future."
"Your future when Kimberley takes her place as queen." Master Splinter assumed
Leo nodded. "Yeah. I-I just don't know how I feel about that. I mean, I knew she was a princess and wasn't from Earth, but I…It never occurred to me that…that she…"
"That she would become queen and would need a king to rule by her side."
"Yeah." Leo sighed shakily.
"Tell me, Leonardo. What do you think of Kimberley?" Master Splinter asked
Leo smiled. "I think she's the most perfect girl in the world. She's smart, funny, caring and she genuinely likes us for who we are. Whenever she smiles…she somehow manages to brighten my world. I love her forest green eyes, her infectious laugh, the way her hair frames her face and blows in the wind, making her look even more beautiful. I love how much she cares for those around her. I love how passionate she is about music, her family and friends, and the honour and rules of ninjitsu…and the other arts of fighting she has learned. I also love how she sticks to her morals and principles and keeps her promises. But what I love most about her is the fact that she loves me for me…even after how I've treated her in the past. I cannot believe I just said that to my father."
Master Splinter chuckled. "My son, do not be ashamed of your feelings. I think it is very special what the two of you feel towards one another. The sisters are very rare and special girls indeed."
"I know, father. That's why I don't want to mess up what I have." Leo sighed, hanging his head.
"Let me ask you this, my son." Master Splinter said, "Do you love Kimberley?"
"Of course, Master. I love her more than anything." Leo replied without a second thought, looking his father in the eyes.
"Do you want her to be in your future?"
"Yes, I do. I know she's in my future."
"Then, what is the problem?" Master Splinter asked in confusion.
"I-it's just, Lord Drake thinks we should get married for Kim to be queen, and I love her, but I've never thought further than next week."
"Leonardo, my son. Do not think about what Lord Drake thinks. Listen to yourself. What do you want?"
Leo didn't say anything for a few minutes. He didn't know what to say, what to do, what to think. He didn't know what his father wanted him to say.
"All I want you to say to me is the truth, Leonardo." Master Splinter said, reading his son's thoughts. "If the time came, would you like to marry Kimberley? Is it your wish, or is it Lord Drake's? Do you love her enough to make that commitment? Or would you just be marrying her for the sake of her duty as princess?"
Master Splinter kept silent the whole time Leo took to arrive at his answer. When he did, Leo felt a serene feeling come over his soul at finally coming to a decision. He looked up at his father and smiled.
Leo was about to give his answer when a cry came from the living room. Master Splinter and Leo looked at each other and ran out of Master Splinter's chambers. When they ran outside they saw a young woman standing there clutching her head. The woman had light brown hair with dark brown highlights, green eyes and a few small freckles around her nose. The girl was crouched on the floor and she quickly stood up a little shaky and looked around frantic.
"Who are you and what are you doing here?" Master Splinter demanded as Leo took out his katanas.
The girl looked up and froze. "Uh…hi!" She greeted
"What's going on?" Violet asked, running into the living room with Donnie.
"Emily?" Violet asked
The girl turned around and smiled. "Princess Violet!" She cried, "Thank goodness I did the spell right."
"Who is she?" Leo asked
Violet smiled. "This is Emily. She's been helping teach Kim in Rayon."
Leo, Donnie and Master Splinter relaxed and Leo put his katanas away.
"So this is the famous Emily." Donnie said, walking over to Emily and shaking her hand.
"Nice to meet you guys, but I really need to see Princess Kimberley." Emily hurried out.
"What? Why?" Leo asked
"Because there is an important meeting taking place about her future in Rayon."
