Chapter 85: Complicated

Sometimes having psychic powers was complicated.

It was bad enough that she never really understood the jumble of senses she could feel from other people.

But now that she knew more about it and what it entailed, it was even worse having that sense that you couldn't turn off no matter what.

She had been trying to perfect her powers and it seemed to be working, but strong emotions would sometimes lift the wall she had learned to project.

Splinter's death had been one of those times.

She was at the farmhouse and standing with the others as they stared at Splinter's grave.

She could feel the waves of emotion emanating from her friends no matter how hard she tried to tune it out.

She tried to put up the wall, but her own emotions cancelled it out.

Letting the tears roll down her cheeks, she let go of the wall and let the emotions consume her.

A/N: I figured April would feel this way about her powers and the senses she gets from other people's emotions. Feel free to leave a review and have a shelltastic day.
