CH 9 Confrontation

Leonardo awoke to a loud banging sound. Opening his eyes the blue masked turtle saw that he was in a cell with thick steel bars. When he tried to move Leonardo found that his arms were shackled to the wall. After pulling furiously on them for awhile Leonardo realized that he wasn't going to be able to free himself. After a little bit he heard the cell door open. Looking over Leonardo saw Karai enter along with Kito.

"Well look whose up," Karai said, crossing her arms and smirking at Leonardo.

"You are going to regret this Karai!" Leonardo cried out, glaring at the teen. "When my brothers find me they'll..."

"Watashitachiha kame to tatakau tame ni anata o koko ni tsurete konakatta (We did not bring you here to fight turtle,)" Kito said sharply. "Watashitachi wa anata to hanashitai dakedesu (We only wish to talk with you.)"

"Sore wa yoi kotoda (That's a good one,)" Leonardo said, rolling his blue eyes. "Soredewa, anata ga shitai koto ga hanashite iru dakenara, naze watashi wa musubitsuite imasu ka? (Then why am I chained up if all you want to do is talk?)"

"Watashitachi wa anata ga koko ni yorokonde taizai shinai koto o shitteita (We knew you wouldn't stay here willingly,)" Kito explained.

"Watashi wa kono Kito o atsukau yo (I'll handle this Kito,)" Karai said. Kito nodded and stepped aside so Karai could take over.

"Look Leonardo we've got a proposition for you," Karai began.

"Whatever it is I'll never do it," Leonardo spat out.

"Anata wa megami no burei o aete shimeshimasu! (You dare show the mistress disrespect!)" Kito shouted, reaching for his sword. But Karai shot the man a sharp look and he quickly withdrew his hand.

"Watashi wa kono Kito o atsukaudarou to itta! (I said I'll handle this Kito!)" Karai growled. "Sono yōna betsu no bakuhatsu to kekka ga arimasu! (Another outburst like that and there will be consequences!)"

"Watashi no aisuruhito o yurushi nasai Karai (Forgive me mistress Karai,)" Kito said with a bow. "Watashi wa chinmoku suru (I will be silent.)"

"Yoi (Good,)" Karai said. Then she turned her attention back to Leonardo saying, "My father has heard of your skills Leonardo. And he wants to speak with you."

"Your father?" Leonardo said, his voice low. "You mean Oroku Saki right?"

"I see your master has taught you all about his enemy," Karai said, her voice darkening when she said the words 'your master'.

"My father told me and my brothers everything," Leonardo declared, putting extra emphasis on the word father. "And whatever sick, twisted plan he has I'll never agree to it!"

"You'll change your mind once my father talks to you," Karai declared. She looked at Kito and nodded. "Kare o watashi no chichioya ni tsureteiku (Take him to my father,)" she ordered.

"Hai, aijin Karai (Yes mistress Karai,)" Kito said, unchaining Leonardo from the wall. The blue masked turtle smile to himself and as soon as his wrists were both free he went into full attack mode, catching both Kito and Karai by surprise. Leonardo grabbed Kito by his wrist and flipped him hard over his head, slamming the man hard into the ground. Before Karai could react Leonardo grabbed Kito by his shirt front and launched him into Karai, sending them both to the ground. Leonardo grabbed the key from Karai and ran out of the cell, locking it behind him, trapping Karai and Kito inside.

"No!" Karai shouted. "Kare o tomete! Kare wa dasshutsu suru koto ga dekimasen! (Stop him! He cannot be allowed to escape!)" By now Leonardo had exited the dungeon and was racing to find an exit. Unfortunately he soon ran into trouble. The rest of the Elite Guards had heard Karai's cry and had blocked Leonardo's path. But the oldest turtle was about to go down without a fight. Letting out a fierce cry he charged, taking down several guards in the process. Thinking quickly Leonardo grabbed a pair of katanas that had been dropped on the ground. By now Bradford had entered the scene and the brown bearded man jumped in front of Leonardo, holding of pair of katanas in his hands as well.

"Now you face me freak!" the man snarled, glaring at Leonardo.

"Bring it on!" Leonardo shouted as he charged towards Bradford. The pair connected and it wasn't long before Bradford got the upper hand. But Leonardo wasn't about to go down that easily. Thinking quickly the oldest turtle used all his strength and launched himself forward, sending Bradford sailing across the room. But the other Elite Guards were there and they grabbed Leonardo from behind, pinning his arms to his side. As hard as he tried to break free the blue eyed turtle wasn't able to do so.

"Jūbun'na! (Enough!)" a voice cried out. Leonardo looked over and saw Karai standing there along with Kito, having been freed by Keno. "Watashinochichi wa kare no heya ni kare ga hoshī! (My father wants him in his room!)" Karai commanded. "Ima sugu kare ni tsurete ikou! (Bring him now!)"

"Aijin no meirei o shite kudasai! (Do as the mistress commands!)" Kito shouted. "Imasugu! (Now!)" With that the Elite members dragged Leonardo out of the room. Kito went to follow but he was stopped by Hiro.

"Kito Watashi wa anata to hanasu koto ga dekimasu ka? (Kito may I speak with you?)" Hiro asked.

"Watashi wa imaya isogashī Hiro (I am busy now Hiro,)" Kito declared. "Soshite, anata wa hokanohito no mawari ni watashi o masutā Kito to shite sanshō suru hitsuyō ga arimasu. (And you are to refer to me as Master Kito when around the others.)"

"Watashi wa Kito masutā o rikai shite imasu (I understand Master Kito,)" Hiro said. "Sorehodo jūyōde wanai ka to tazuneru koto wa arimasen. Watashi wa ikutsu ka no hijō ni jūyōna nyūsu (And I would not ask if it were not very important. I have learned some very important news.)"

"Kekkō (Very well,)" Kito said. "Kono jūyōna nyūsu wa nanidesu ka? (What is this important news?)" Hiro opened his mouth to speak but just then they heard Karai's voice call. "Kito Sugu ni koko ni kite! (Kito come here at once!)"

"Hai, aijin Karai (Yes mistress Karai,)" Kito called back. Then he turned to Hiro saying, "Kore wa matanakereba narimasen. Shujin wa watashi o hitsuyō to shite imasu. Soshite, anata mo kurubekidesu. (This will have to wait. The master is in need of me. And you should come as well.)"

"Mochiron (Of course,)" Hiro said. With that Kito turned and went inside the other room. Hiro sighed to himself. "If only I could talk to Kito alone," he thought. "I know I could convince him to help me. After all Hamato Yoshi is the true leader of the Foot. But until then I have to obey what Shredder says. Even if I know it is not the right thing to do." With these thoughts Hiro followed Kito into the other room.

Meanwhile Leonardo had been drug into the other room where he saw a man wearing silver armor, a mask, and sharp blades on his hands. "Father I have brought the turtle I told you about," Karai said, as she kneeled before he father.

"So I see," Oroku Saki said, walking towards Leonardo. Then he said to the guards, "Kare o kaihō suru (Release him.)"

"Hai masutā shureddā (Yes Master Shredder,)" the guards said as they released Leonardo. The oldest turtle got up and started to run towards the door.

"You could try and run," Karai said, crossing her arms. "But that would be seriously stupid on your part." Karai nodded towards the Elite Guards, who were standing at the ready, hands on their weapons. Leonardo stopped, realizing he wouldn't be able to escape. "That's what I thought," Karai said with a cruel laugh.

"Silence Karai!" the armor clad man shouted. Karai was instantly quiet. Then Shredder turned towards Leonardo saying, "I've been watching you turtle. Your skills are very impressive. I could use a young one with talents like yours."

"I'll never join with the likes of you Oroku!" Leonardo shouted, taking a step towards Shredder.

"Oroku Saki is dead," the Shredder declared. "There is only the Shredder. And it would be very foolish of you not to join me."

"You can go straight to Hell!" Leonardo snarled, taking another step towards Shredder. The Elite Guards began to reach for their weapons but Shredder held up his hand saying, "Watashi wa meirei o dasanai kagiri kōgeki shinaide kudasai! (Do not attack unless I give the order!)" The Elite immediately withdrew their hands. However Leonardo used this distraction to his advantage and lunged for the Shredder, tackling him around his waist. Shredder threw the blue masked turtle off of him and swung his blades. But Leonardo was ready and dodged the attack. Thinking quickly Leonardo grabbed a sword that was on the wall and held it in front of him. Letting out a loud cry he charged towards the Shredder, who held his blades out. The two connected but it wasn't long before Leonardo was on the ground.

"Don't be a fool turtle," Shredder said, kicking Leonardo hard and sending him skidding across the ground. "You are far to valuable for me to destroy. Join me and that won't happen." As Shredder was talking he delivered kick after kick followed by a swift blow with his blades.

"I'll...never...join...you," Leonardo panted, wiping away the blood from his mouth.

"Then so be it," Shredder said as he raised his blades and struck Leonardo hard in the head, sending him into a world of darkness.
