Personality Adjustment

Ch 10

"Security Breach"

In Japan the Ancient One continued to train Leonardo. When they were done for the day he sat and meditated. While the Ancient One meditated a vision of Leo's family's destruction came to him and he went to him and said.

"Leonardo you must return home immediately!"

Leo opened his eyes and asked.

"Are you sure that there is no more you can do for me Sensei?"

He sighed and sighed.

"Leonardo your family is in grave danger! You must get back home as soon as you can before it's too late! You have mastered all the lessons I have taught you here. Now go home and use the teachings wisely so you can continue to protect your family!"

Leo bowed to him and headed to the pier and took the boat back to New York where his family was eagerly awaiting his return. To himself he muttered.

'Oh Stacy please protect my family till I return home. I just hope I'm not too late and that my family is o.K. anything happens to them I'll never forgive myself! Hold on tight I'm coming home!'

In the meantime back in New York Stacy slept in Leo's bed and had a vision of total destruction! In the vision she saw Karai enter and destroy his family as she watched helplessly, because she was tied up and unable to move. She also felt Karai's blade pierce her and then everything became black!"

She woke up and screamed out for Leo. Raphael heard her from the living room and ran to Leo's room and held her close. Then he removed her bangs from her eyes and asked.

"Stacy what happened? Why did you just scream out Leo's name? What's wrong talk to me please?"

She felt his arms around her and said.

"I had a vision about Karai and the foot! In the vision she destroyed all of you with the foot's help and then killed me! It was awful Raph; just awful! Then Leo returned and also got killed!"

She got out of the bed and said.

"She's on her way here, because she managed to capture me and found out the location of the lair without me being aware! I'm sorry I should've stayed out of it now all of our lives are in danger and he's not here to prevent it from happening! It's my entire fault!"

He stared at her and wiped the tears from her eyes; and said.

"It's not your fault Stacy. Stop saying that it is. I don't think she managed to get the location of our lair from you, but maybe by some other way. Come on now into the kitchen and have some lunch! It'll be ok calm down!"

After they ate lunch the alarm sounded and everyone froze and looked at Don. When Don ran to shut it off it shut off automatically. He scratched his head and said.

"Either it was a false alarm or someone just turned it off! This can't be good! Stacy I want you to get out of here now! We don't want you to risk your life to help us with the intruder! Just leave and save yourself!"

She ran out of the lair and as she exited she saw the entrance explode and gulped. She unsheathed her katana and snuck back into the lair and assisted them as they fought the foot. Raphael looked at her and yelled as he fought.

"Don told you to stay out of it! It's too dangerous for you to be here! You're not skilled enough to fight Karai and will get killed! Stacy please just leave and get the hell out of here!"

She stared at him with her eyes slanted and said.

"No I won't run! You 3 are like my brothers and I intend to help you defeat this bitch! Your brother Leo taught me everything I know and you are short one brother! Besides I'm just as skilled as him! You need help and I'm not deserting you and that's final; now shut up and fight!"

As they fought off the foot Karai lunged at Splinter and Stacy jumped up and came down with a driving kick knocking Karai across the room. Then she stood in front of Splinter and fought Karai. Their blades crossed and Splinter watched as his sons faced the foot and as Stacy fought Karai. Then he ran into his room and went to grab the ball of his Master Yoshi, Karai seen him and slashed Stacy's arm. Then she knocked her out and ran after Splinter! She used her foot and cracked it. Then she picked up Master Splinter and threw him across the lair. She caused the old rat to hit his back on the wall. Don saw it and jumped up and came down with a driving kick. Then he knocked off the helmet and stared at her with his eyes slanted in anger.

Stacy came to and returned to the fight. She realized the lair was collapsing and yelled.

"We have to get the hell out of here or we'll all be killed! There are too many foot ninjas for us to handle and we're all injured! Besides they gained more strength from the last time we fought them!"

Don yelled to Raph and said.

"She's right bro! You take Stacy and use the battle shell to get out of here. Mike you take Clunk and use the tunneler! As for me and Master Splinter we'll use the shell sub! On my signal let's jet!"

They all waited for his signal and retreated with the foot on their tails. The foot followed the shell sub on water crafts. Don looked and escaped the shell sub with Master Splinter. Then he set the shell sub on auto pilot and watched as the foot blew it up while they hid in the sand at the bottom of the river. Then he and Splinter headed to the surface and took refuge in an abandoned storage area on the shore.

"Mistress Karai the one called Donatello and the rat was destroyed!"

She laughed and said.

"Excellent"

The foot also followed Mike in the tunneler. They shot torpedoes and he grabbed Clunk. Then they both jumped out and watched as the tunneler went up in flames. He sighed with relief and hid in an abandoned tunnel as he held the scared kitten in his arms.

"Mistress Karai the one called Michelangelo has been destroyed!"

She laughed once again

"Wonderful"

Raphael hit the gas and sped out of the lair at top speed with the foot right behind them. Stacy looked out of the window and saw them launch 2 missiles at the battle shell and yelled.

"Raphael we have to get out of here before we're killed!"

He yelled at her and said.

"Will you shut up! Don't you see I'm tryin' to drive here! Stop being a back seat driver I know what I'm doing!"

She nudged him again and said.

"Oh really well look out behind us shell for brains the missiles are heading right for us! Do something!"

Raphael grabbed Stacy and then he shot the shell cycle right out the back of the battle shell. When he looked back he saw the battle shell go up in flames and said.

"Whew that was close! Hold on tightly Stacy we're out of here!"

She held onto his waist tightly as he sped down the street and came to the train tracks. He grabbed her and climbed the bridge. Then when they got over the bridge they headed to Coney Island where he could dress her wounds. He buried his head in his hands and said.

"Oh man I can't believe this! Where the shell are you Leo we need you more than ever!"

She held him tightly and said.

"At least we're alive Raphael. You shouldn't be so hard on yourself it's not your fault."

He just sighed and fell asleep on her lap. She stroked his forehead gently and then fell asleep right next to him.

"Mistress Karai the one called Raphael and Stacy has also been destroyed! Still no sign of the one called Leonardo!"

She responded.

"Well done report back to Foot headquarters!"

Karai entered April's shop and played with a vase. April spotted the stranger in the hat and walked over by them.

"Can I help you?"

She smiled slyly and asked.

"Where's Leonardo?"

April stared at her with fear in her eyes and said.

"He's not here! What do you want with him anyway! Answer me!"

Karai didn't answer and April stormed off back to her register and stared into space. Then Karai approached the register and threw the sign.

"Give Leonardo a message"

April stared and began to stutter.

"Wh--at kind of message would you like me to give him?"

Karai lifted her hat and said.

"Tell him I have destroyed his family and that he's next! Oh yes and I also destroyed his precious girlfriend Stacy! Farewell Ms. O'Neil; make sure he gets the message and comes to receive his fate!"

April stared into space once again and started to cry as she held the sign that once hung on the wall in the lair. Then she also held Stacy's chain close to her heart and broke down into tears once again! Then she muttered to herself.

'Leo where are you? She destroyed your family and wants to also destroy you! She killed my cousin too! Hurry home please!'
