"I'm sick of this!" Jacqueline said slamming her fists down on the arm of the couch. Mikey jumped awake next to her as her younger sisters looked over at her.
"And what do you suspect we do?" Lexine asked crossing her arms.
"Go find her! Fight! Something! This is stupid! We're just sitting here, doing nothing!" She said getting to her feet. Fiona got up as well.
"She's right Lex. If we go there, at least we'll know if she's ok." Fiona said with sad eyes. Lexine shook her head with a sigh.
"What if she's joined them and we go there and lose, we die."
"That's thinking positive Lexi!" Jacqueline said with a sarcastic thumbs up. "Are you kidding me? What happened to miss positive?"
"I'm sorry I'm not all smiles when my sister is gone somewhere and might have joined people that have threatened our lives!" Lexine shot back. Jacqueline growled lighting a ball of flame in her hand.
"Stop!" Fiona yelled stepping in between the two of them. "We're going. We have our powers…If we use them together and maybe for once do what Jade asks of us we'll be able to get her back or at least not die." Jac closed her fist as the flame distinguished as Lexi stood up straight from a stance.
"You're coming." Fiona said turning towards the brothers. Raphael got to his feet as Donatello looked unsure. Michelangelo jumped to his feet with an enthusiastic smile. Fiona walked past her sisters heading for the door as Jacqueline smiled following her youngest sister. Lexine shook her head following.
"So what happens when we find her?" Lexi said as Donnie helped her over a pipe in the sewer.
"We fight." Jacqueline said walking ahead.
"Ok, great. That's super. We don't even know where she…"
"We'll find her."
"Alright, and when we do what if she's with the Foot, what if she's still June and not our sister? How are we going to fight June and the Foot?" Lexi said.
"Well figure that out when we get there." Jac said in an even tone. Lexi sighed.
"We're not even positive what happen. Maybe Jade is walking through the sewer right now with Leo!" Fiona said with a smile. Jac kept walking as Lexi shook her head.
They made their way to the surface as Foot Ninjas waited on a roof top right above their manhole. Jacqueline felt something ripple through her senses as she looked up, seeing figures looking down at them. She stepped aside as the others made their way to the surface. Raphael gripped the hilts of his sais as his brothers stood strong next to him.
She smiled down at them as she nodded her head for the Foot to attack. The six prepared themselves as Fiona went invisible, Jac light a ball of flame to her hand and Lexi ran up the side of the building, spin kicking a Foot across the face landing on her knee. Donnie spun his bo staff, knocking Foot Ninja around him down to the ground. Raphael kicked back Foot blocking their katanas with his sais tossing their bodies to the side. Jacqueline smiled throwing a fire ball towards a group of Foot coming at her as the explosion lit up the small alleyway. Michelangelo flipped back, blocking a katana with the chains of his nunchakus, pushing their body back jumping to a roundhouse kick across their masked face. Fiona fought off the Foot around her sisters created a force field around them as another group of Foot jumped from above. She held it as a loud voice echoed through the alleyway.
"Enough." The Shredder said from above. The six looked up at him as the Foot stepped back, keeping their hands to their katanas. Fiona kept the force field up as the Shredder jumped down in front of them. "I see you came to join your foolish brother." He scoffed as Raphael twisted his sais against his forearms.
"Where's Jade?" Jacqueline growled as she appeared behind the Shredder.
"Right here dear sister." She smiled walking toward Fiona's force field. Jac glared at her through the clear orb lighting a flame in her palm. She smiled, touching the force field as it disappeared. Fiona looked at her hands trying to push her powers to create another one. "Foolish little sister. Take them." She said towards the Foot as they came up behind the six grabbing their arms. Jacqueline struggled to move from their grasp as the Foot behind her applied more pressure. She hissed in pain, giving up on breaking free.
She walked away with the Shredder as her smile disappeared when she turned away from her sisters. Saki looked over at her as she lifted her head up high, walking ahead of him.
The Foot shoved them into a holding cell as Leonardo picked his head up from leaning it against the wall. He shook his head looking at his brothers.
"Hey Leo." Mikey said with a head nod. Leo rolled his eyes getting to his feet.
"So what now Jacqueline?" Lexine shot at her with a glare. Jacqueline glared back crossing her arms.
"I don't know Lexine, we wait around for death?"
"Great. Good attitude Jacqueline. Maybe this isn't quite the time for sarcasm?"
"Maybe this isn't quite the time to snap at me for somethin' that isn't even my fault!" Lexine rolled her eyes as the Shredder's clapping hands echoed through out the concrete room.
"That was beautiful girls." He smiled. Jacqueline growled lighting a flame in her hand.
"Come on Jackie. Play nice." She said stepping in front of the Shredder.
"So what now June? You gonna kill us?"
"Not yet." She smiled. She snapped her head to the left as the Hun barreled his way into the holding cells. She rolled her eyes turning towards him.
"What is she doing in here?" He said inches away from her face. She stood her ground crossing her arms over her chest.
"I'm doing my part." She snapped. He glared at her looking over at Saki.
"How can we trust her? She killed one of my men!"
"If you call that pathetic excuse for a waste of flesh a man." She chuckled turning away from him.
"Watch your tongue girl or…"
"Or what?" She said narrowing her eyes at him. He stepped back from her as she walked towards him. "One, that thing you considered a man was nothing but a worthless piece of shit that should be grateful that was how he met his death. Two, you question me again and you will soon too find yourself in a pool of your own blood. And three…" She stopped and smiled. "Well, I think one and two is enough don't you?"
She turned and walked back over to the cell, opening the door with her powers as Jacqueline immediately threw a flame towards her. She pushed it away, smiling towards Jac. Jacqueline narrowed her eyes lighting another flame.
"Oh dear sister, so much hostility…" She said with a pout. Jac growled punching her across the face. She smiled turning her head slowly back towards Jac's glaring eyes. "Aw, is that how you treat your beloved older sister?" Jac punched her across the face again. She smiled, running her finger tip along the edge of her lip, as her crimson blood dripped on it. She licked her blood off her finger with the tip of her tongue as she slapped Jacqueline across the face. Jac stumbled back and held up a hand.
"Wait. You don't want to go and do something stupid. You may have powers but your dear lover boy doesn't." She said nodding her head towards Raphael. Jac looked back at him and closed her fist with a sigh. "Thata girl." She smiled.
"What are you planning on doing June?" Lexine asked with a fierce tone walking over to her. She smiled looking back into Lexi's piercing green eyes.
"I plan on killing them. Starting with Leonardo. I wanted to wait…" She smirked looking past Lexi at Leo as he squared his shoulders showing no sigh of fear. "It'll be more fun making them watch their hero be brought down by the women he loves."
"I have no love for you." Leo growled from the back of the cell. She smiled softly and walked past Lexi. He didn't flinch, or move a muscle. He stood still, keeping his eyes on hers.
"But for Jade, you do." She smiled. Leo said nothing glaring into her eyes. She turned walking away from him out of the cell. "Enjoy your stay dear sisters. I wouldn't get too comfortable." She chuckled walking out of the holding cell as Saki and the remaining Foot followed.
"What do you have planned for them my dear?" Saki said walking beside her. She looked forward with a straight concentrating face.
"Something better than you I'm sure." She said with a raised eyebrow opening her bedroom door, slamming it shut. She took a breath, collapsing against her door. She leaned off it and sat down on her large bed with a frustrated sigh. She closed her eyes as it pounded behind her lids. She pressed her hand to her head sitting up slowly. She couldn't think of anything but him, her sisters. Leo. Jade's voice echoed in the back of her mind. She got to her feet, opening her door slowly and peering down the hall both ways. Nothing. She smiled closing the door slowly behind her as she made her way down the hall.
Her foot steps were silent as she walked on the thick carpeted halls. She walked down the stairs to the marble floor and stopped, taking off her heels. Her bare feet touched the cold marble as she quickly and quietly made her way to the holding cells. She stopped at a corner looking down it as two Foot Ninja stood guard. She growled softly and put her heels back on walking up to them. They straighten themselves out as Jacqueline jumped to her feet from the bench she sat on holding her sister's close to her.
"Mistress June." The Foot said with a bow. She waved her hand annoyed at their presences.
"Leave." She said looking at Jacqueline.
"But, Master has given us strict…"
"LEAVE!" She snapped as they bowed again, walking down the hall. Jac watched them leave in question as she looked back at her.
"Back for round two?" She said raising an eyebrow and cracking her knuckles.
"Cut the tough girl bullshit Jacqueline." Jade said irritated at her sister. Jac stopped and looked at her. She was different, she was…Jade. Jacqueline's eyes filled with relief, happiness, and sadness. She wanted to just rip the doors from their hinges and wrap her arms around her sister.
"Ja…Jade?" Jacqueline said in a cautious tone. Jade smiled and rolled her eyes.
"Let's get you guys outta here." She smiled as she closed her eyes opening the door. Her powers were just as strong as they were when June took over her mind. Jacqueline wrapped her arms around Jade as she smiled, holding her sister tight to her body. "I missed you Jackie." She whispered as Jacqueline clenched her eyes shut off from tears.
"I did too Jay." They broke their embrace as Fiona got up walking slowly over to Jade. Jade smiled over at her as Fiona's face lit up.
"It really is you." She said rushing over and wrapping her arms around Jade in a tight hug. Jade had to hold her hand out, gripping onto one of the cell bars from Fiona's force. Lexine was next hugging her sister.
"I looked at you earlier and something just told me." Lexine said with a smile.
"I know brainiac. That's why I had to change my game up and stop looking at you." She smirked messing around her sister's hair.
"So what the hell was that speech earlier?" Raph said crossing his arms.
"They think I'm June…"
"Apparently." Donnie snorted. Jade looked over at him with a raised eyebrow.
"Anyways. I had to give off the persona that I was June so they didn't suspect anything. If they found out otherwise, they'd kill you. All of you. That's not happening." She looked over at Leo who still sat on the bench, arms crossed and glaring at Jade. She frowned and walked over to him. He stood up gracefully, keeping his eyes on hers.
"You almost killed me with that love line." He said as his eyes softened. She smiled looking down.
"Yeah, sorry about that." She chuckled.
"Well isn't this a beautiful reunion." Saki said in the entry way of their cell. Jade turned around quickly, narrowing her eyes. She stepped forward, pushing her sister's back as Leo kept close to her. "You're a stupid girl." He said keeping his eyes on Jade. "Now, everything you worked so hard to protect will die because of your foolishness, you're actions and you're choice." He said shutting the door and locking it. Jade smiled as the door sung open.
"And you're a stupid man." She smirked walking towards him. "You forget, June and myself are the same. Her powers are mine. She owns nothing." Jade growled fiercely. "I am not going to let anything step in between my family and our connection. Thinking differently was your first mistake." Saki slowly moved his feet back as she moved towards him. She never backed down, never showed fear.
"You could have had everything." Saki said. She smiled and shook her head.
"I have everything and more. More than you ever will." Jade closed her eyes taking deep steady breaths as she opened them and the Shredder, herself and the six behind her were on the building's roof top. Jade opened her eyes with a smile as wind blew over her body, her hair falling out of its loose bun, flowing around her neck.
The others looked around themselves as Lexine held tightly onto Donnie. They stepped away from each other as they regained their bearings. Fiona and Mikey hugged each other tightly, as they opened their eyes looking around as Fiona still kept Mikey's arms around her. Jacqueline stood next to Raphael as he kept his hands on the hilts of his sais. Leonardo put his arms back on the hilt of his katanas as he looked around him at the City lights, looking before him where Jade stood.
"You're not going to win." She smiled as Saki looked around his surroundings.
"You don't have enough hate in you." He smiled, knowing he wasn't going to face his death. She nodded her head.
"I don't. Not like you. But, you fucked with the wrong family." She said as she held out her hand, tossing Saki's body from the building. His body flew through the air, as it disappeared in the darkness ahead of her. She sighed as the wind around her died down, having her hair settle around her face. She fell to the cold concrete roof top, as her exhaustion took over her body. Leo rushed over catching her in his arms as she smiled up at him. He managed one back, moving a piece of hair away from her face.
"Hi." She said softly. He smiled wider.
"Hi." He said as she lifted her head up, moving her hand to the back of his neck and pushing his lips to hers. Wind rushed over their bodies as she pulled back with a smile. The feeling that ran through his vines burned through them again. He picked her up in his arms. "Let's get you some where safe." He said as she nodded her head collapsing against his body.
Alright. I know the shredder's exit is on the lame side, but Jade is really powerful and the Shredder basically has strength and thats it so hes kinda lame. And, this story isn't over yet kiddies...DUN DUN DUN
