Sister of Ours

Sister is probably the most competitive relationship within the family, but once the sisters are grown, it becomes the strongest relationship…by Margaret Mead

Disclaimer: I do not own TMNT 2012, Nickelodeon owns them.

In the secret Lair and a home of the Hamato Clan, we see Leo and Donnie in the dojo and they are still practicing the Death Dragon that Mikey had shown them before she left.

But, when she left she had left behind some unsympathetic, unresolved argument hanging on their shoulders, mostly, Raphael who he hadn't said a single word since Mikey left to Chris's dojo. He has a heavy sadness coursing over his face with his heart slowly beating, feeling lost and hurt.

He sat by the tree with his arms crossed, and on placed them on his knees with the most impassive look on his face. People will think that he doesn't care about anything or feel anything but deep down he really screwed up big time. Mikey apologized to him and explained herself to him, and what did he do? He gave her a silent treatment and made his sister feel worse than before.

'I can't believe I did that to my baby sister! But, I was so upset about and she made me so mad at her, that made me don't wanna look at her or speak to her…But, she did apologize to me for what she did and told me her reasons why…Was I really cruel? Of course, I am. I'm such an idiot.' All his thinking about the previous event had done nothing but to give him a big headache.

"Why not stop mobbing and talk to her when she comes back." A voice made Raphael jump in surprise and look up to meet his older brother, Leonardo, with the straight face, looking very upset, and worry altogether.

'Oh great,' quicker than quick, his face turns into a frown, arms crossed, and facing away from fearless. For all, he already knows he's going to lecture him for doing everything wrong and Leo will always be right about everything…again.

"I understand you're still disappointed with her after what she did and done, but you are still in the wrong when you gave her a silent treatment while she was saying sorry."

"I know." Said Raph dejectedly.

"Then you know what you must do?" Leo looks at him with a sincere look on his gentle face. Raph looked up unexpectedly struck with awe because he didn't scold him that much or giving him one of his long, boring, and all-knowing lectures. He merely straight me right, without giving me so much details cause, as much we all know Raphael disliking admitting things, but Raph and Leo had a deep connection that they can read each other's mind correctly as if they are like synced in body and mind.

Raph smiles in gratefulness but quickly wiped that smile on his face, stand up, and poked his finger on Leo's plastron with a threatening look.

"Tell this to anyone, I'll rub the floor with your face, got it?" But Leo did take his threat, instead, he rolls his eyes and smile amusedly.

"Whatever you say, Raph." He said in a voice of amusement and turn around to get back to practicing the Death Dragon with Donnie.

"Why not show you the Death Dragon? That would lift up your spirit, just until Mikey get back." That sounds okay to Raph and it'll make the time go faster and tell Mikey he's really sorry. He shrugged as a yes.

Perhaps Leo is right, everything will work out fine once Mikey gets back from Chris's dojo.

He stood on the sideline as Leonardo and Donatello bow to each other and made a pose. Then, Master Splinter is so happened to enter the dojo in the right time to see both of his sons' training. It fills Splinter with pride to see his sons train and grow strong, but still, have a long way to go.

He watches as Leonardo move first to attack Donatello, but what he saw next made him gape with horror strike on his face.

As if he's dreaming an awful nightmare while in waking moment, Leonardo…or he saw Oroku Saki pushing Hamato Yoshi very lightly, but too stunned to know that it was a ploy. Before Yoshi can predict, Saki did a kick on the back of Yoshi's foot and he fell on the mat and defeated. Yoshi was dazed while Saki looks down with triumph.

Splinter shake the past out of his head, he speedily, and nervously inquires.

"Where did you learn that!?" His yell has caused all three of his sons to look at him with sudden surprise. They never heard from their Sensei this level of tone before, and not to mention, the expression on his face is not used to see on their father's face.

Nonetheless, Leonardo is always, the first to answer.

"Mikey learned it from her new friend." Splinter could feel his heart skip a beat.

"The man, who taught her that kata, is no friend!" Then Splinter turns frown as he speaks the next worst thing.

"It comes from the Shredder."

"SHREDDER!?" All the boys yelled in unison as their heart torn asunder.

"Yes, the man must be one of Shredder's students." He then sighs.

"He must have known that I am alive and he is out there to hunt me down and most worryingly, all of you!" This is what Splinter has feared the most; his arch nemesis is here in New York out to finish what he started it long ago.

Splinter, then, hears nothing. Not a single word uttered from any of his sons. When he looks up to see his three sons are having difficulty breathing, and it worry him to his core.

"My sons, what is wrong?" It worried him, even more, when they didn't reply to him or react. He can sense his heart is swelling so bad it'll explode until Raphael broke the silence with a seething face.

Raphael, Leonardo, and Donatello all dreaded of something like this to happen but they weren't prepared for this. Chris Bradford is Shredder's student and he was pretending to be Mikey's friend to get information, and now he has Mikey captive.

Raphael feels like he's fire and thunder. Fire eat his rage to increase the heat because his sister is in trouble, and thunder is roaring from the image of his sister is emotionally hurt by betrayal and deception.

"I'm going to kill him." He said while grinding his teeth.

"What is going on?" Splinter demanded to know and at the same time, he's scared to know. Leonardo sighs through his nose to keep his inner anger contained, once he's sure he's calm he looks at his Sensei and spoke to him steadily.

"Sensei, Michelangela have received a message from Chris and she went there all by herself, but…it was all a trap set for her, and I'm afraid he has Mikey captive." Now Splinter feels like he's falling into a cliff.

This is what he's been afraid of, one of his children been taken from him and it was his daughter, his precious daughter. They have his little girl and his old heart reopen old wound with a new fresh wound.

"Don't worry, Sensei. We will save Mikey and bring her home safely." Said Leo, but this is not a promise, this is an absolute pledge of vengeance to Chris Bradford.

This guy has messed with the wrong family by hurting their hurting their most precious person, and he will not escape until he gets what he deserves.

Splinter is scared, furious, anxious, and overall a heat blazing within his core from his hatred toward the vile monster that continues to torment him from afar like the coward he really is. Hearing his oldest son's assurance of bringing Michelangela home calms him a little, but it's enough to regain his composer. He breathes in and out through his nose and replies calmly and strongly.

"Then go, save your sister, and bring her home…to me." The wise ninja master's voice is laced with terrible worry knowing his youngest daughter is in danger, and alone with Shredder's top henchman.

"We will, Sensei," Leo exclaimed with angry determination and turn to look at his brothers.

"Let's move." And they sprint as warriors with eyes turned white and narrowed, to get their weapons and equipment and save their sister.

And they better hope they don't any trace of hurt on her face because if she has one, then they will maim Chris Bradford.

The city is never quiet in the dark of the night with car honking somewhere, cat yowling, and people walking. But, the ninja turtles are sailing across from rooftop to rooftop without making a single noise as if they silent and swift as the wind.

Their movement and grace are the results of their extreme training, there is neither flaw nor wrong in their moves there is power, fluidity, and resolve of a warrior with iron-will, to get their baby sister.

They've reached the rooftop of Chris's dojo and peer through the glass rooftop window. They see their baby sister with three Foot Soldiers surrounding her, but disgust and fury flood them when they saw she was restraint around her arms and legs, very tightly, that the ropes are hurting her bare skin. But, the worst kind of all that made their blood boil to the brink of explosion, is that what those monsters put on her face.

A dog muzzle! A steel dog muzzle!

They will pay soon enough. But, right now, they need to get her out of this place and Donnie has the device to do so. A bubble gum and drawing tool compass. He is been chewing the bubble gum till it's good and sticky; he removed the gum from his mouth and stick it onto the drawing tool compass.

He, then, stick the gum on the glass window and the sharpness of the needle is cutting the glass like cutting butter. He taps the glass to remove and unlock the lock from the inside.

Mikey is feeling pitiful about herself for letting like this to happen to her, and the muzzle that clamping her jaw is hurting her. She then saw movement from above her and relief washed over her when she saw it was her big brothers, coming to rescue her.

The three Foot Soldier sensed presences and being highly trained by their ruthless master. But, never have prepared them and encounter such sense of wrath coming from their enemy, and made them feel helpless and quiver like being hunted by a dangerous predator.

These three quivering men stood no chance when Leo, Raph, and Donnie, slyly, sneak behind them and knock them out.

Mikey is so happy to see them that if it weren't for that muzzle on her face she would've said something like "Dude, that was sporadic!"

After they have dealt with the Foot, Leonardo freed his sister by using a small kunai to cut the robes, and Donnie is using a paper clip to unlock the muzzle, with an experience he unlocks the muzzle and carefully, remove that awful thing from her mouth. Mikey is opening and closing her mouth to get her jaw working and licking her dry lips. She wanted so much to envelop them in one complete hug, but the guilty shame came back reminding her reason why she is here in the first place, and it's because she didn't listen to them.

"Bros, I…I'm so," she didn't get to finish it because Leo spoke.

"How about we go home first, then we'll talk, okay." He spoke to her with a very gentle face and not mad or upset at her, the same goes for Donnie and Raph. In fact, they are all relieved to see their littlest sister is alright and not harmed.

Mikey looks at them for a moment before she bursts into a smile, her brothers are awesome when they are, well, awesome.

They've left Chris's Dojo and they are on their way home. The rescue mission was too easy, much to their displeasure from three brothers. They expected them to put more Foot Ninja guards or fighting against that despicable Chris Bradford and giving him a piece of their mind.

Or, maybe more sadistic like…removing of what makes him a man.

Soon, they've escaped into the sewers via a storm drain, but what they don't know is that they are being watched by Bradford and Xever.

Chris is wearing the same armored attire and watched through an advance binocular. Those freaks escaped with their other freak, and through the sewers. Clever, hiding just beneath the street away from humans like rats.

"Perfect." He muttered with an evil smirk, and Xever is smirking as well. As much as he despises that gorilla man, at least he helped him find those freaks and he'll have the pleasure to cut them into ribbons and display their heads on his wall as trophies.

"Let's go get them!" said Xever with Foot Ninja behind them. They got them right where they want them.

But, too bad for the bad guys, the Turtles are not so easily fooled for they have set them a trap just for the Foot.

The boys briefed their plan to Mikey while she tried to hold in her evil giggle but her brothers her eyes twinkling with evil glee that would make Raphael proud.

Bradford, Xever, and the legion of Foot are in the sewer tunnels tracking down the turtles, but they somehow lost sight of them. But, despite it all they move onward to look for them that will lead them to their Sensei and these fools are supposed to be highly ranked Ninja they should be aware that something is not right, because the turtles silently yanking the Foot, one by one, into the darkness binding them with rope before they had the chance to notice them.

Bradford and Xever and two remaining of Foot Soldier has reached the dead end of the circle tunnel, separating Bradford, Xever, and one Foot Soldier from the other Foot Soldier on the other side. But soon, they realize too late that their bands of Foot Soldiers are gone, swept away in the dark without a whisper.

They are never the ones to get nervous and uneasy in a situation like this they are prepared to face to an enemy, but they are trained by a powerful and masterful Ninja Master whose skill is evenly matched with the Shredder.

And then, their nervousness and uneasiness have increased when two remaining of Foot Soldiers have been yanked into the darkness, gone from their sights. Xever brings out his flare and lights it, and to Xever and Bradford's complete surprise they found their band of Foot Soldiers hanging helplessly from the ceiling of the tunnel.

Shocked but outraged that these freaks have defeated the most skilled soldiers they have, and they are teenagers. They were been underhanded by amateurs. Xever has had it with a little game of hiding and seeks and start to shout.

"SHOW YOUR FACES!" he demanded and he got his answer.

The three brothers and sister rise from the waters, weapon at their sides, and ready to pound into submission. The men are shocked to find them in an embarrassing predicament.

"They trapped us!" Yes, rather than trapping the turtles, they are the ones who are trapped. They more than outraged they're pride have been wounded by humiliation. They will make them pay.

"Take them down!" Xever usually argues for ordering him but not this time, not when he wants to skin those freaks alive.

The battle begins. Bradford goes against Leo and Raph and Xever against Don and Mikey.

Bradford try to lay a punch and a kick on Raph but Raph keeps on avoiding his attacks, Leo is sneaking behind Bradford with two swords ready to strike him on his back but Chris has sensed Leo from the start that he grabbed Raph by the shell and spins him around toward Leo, knocking them both. But Leo and Raph will never stay down as they recover their footings. It would seem taking him down is a lot harder than they've anticipated.

As for Donnie and Mikey, they are having trouble defeating their enemy, as well. Xever is actually dancing as if there is music in the air. Both mutant turtles are confused at his strangeness of the man's fighting style but there is no time for watching it is time to fight. Donnie is the first to attack as he spins his wooden staff, Xever has his palm hands placed on the ground and using his legs to swing and block Donnie's attacks. Donnie is starting to growl in frustrating that not only the man is playing with him but he is also taunting him, with a cry he swings his staff to Xever's hands to knock him out of balance but Xever has anticipated this that he jumped off the ground and land on Donnie's shoulders but he didn't stop there. With his feet on each side of Donnie's head, he gripped it tightly and Xever did a somersault while lifting Donnie with his surprising strength and Mikey was right behind Xever when she tried to help her brother but she got hit under her chin from Donnie's foot, knocking her down. Then, once Xever's hands landed on the ground and still gripping Donnie he spins the mutant and throws him toward Mikey, knocking her again with Donnie on top of her.

The brother and the sister are not having any luck of beating this guy while he is smirking smugly at them, and neither are Leo and Raph. Chris had pushed Raph to the ground, the Foot Elite is looming over Raph with his two large hands entwined together into one fist and about to bring Raph into a world of pain but Leo jumped up to stop him and save his brother with his twin blades pointed down. But Chris already sensed his presence that he seized the swords with both of his index fingers and thumbs, Leo gasped in a surprise of the guy's fast reflexes and Chris, then, flung Leo straight to the wall but Raph was quick to see and sprint fast and catches his brother.

Leo and Raph are not getting the upper hand here, even when they tried to combine their strength to beat the bastard but the bastard has countered every single attack they make. Even Donnie and Mikey are having a problem with beating the Brazilian guy; he's agile and fast that he bested Donnie and Mikey's speed and agility.

Fighting fire with fire can only leave you a nasty burn, but fighting with the opposite element can bring a great advantage.

Each turtle team is nodding to each other as Donnie is singling it is time for an old switch-a-roo.

Leo and Raph made a dash to Chris and evade his every attack then Leo and Raph are running while Chris is chasing them while growling like a dog. The same goes for Donnie and Mikey when jumped out of the away from Xever's deadly kick and they run while Xever chases them.

Chris and Xever have no idea that they've entered the world of pain.

The turtles have switched their opponent, Leo and Raph are fighting against Xever while Donnie and Mikey will deal with Chris. Chris wanted to laugh at the stupidity of these turtles, they think that a little team swap could make a difference, they are fools.

But, Chris is the real fool. He is a ravaging beast towering over them while they backing away until their shells hit a pipe and they are trapped. He grinned and lunches his mighty fist to break their faces. Did I mention Donnie and Mikey are trapped? Well, they are not. They led Chris right where they want him to be.

Chris let out a savage battle cry as he fires his fist, and just like Mikey and Donnie had predicted it and, on cue, they jumped back behind the pipe but Mikey, the girl turtle landed on the pipe when Chris saw her, his eyes flash with vengeance and he fires another punch but she saw it coming that she avoids his punch and grabbed by her Nunchaku and jumps behind the pipe as she pulls him. Chris cursed as he tries to pull back but he had forgotten the other turtle, Donnie. Donnie knocked his feet under the pipe by using his wooden staff making him land on his knees and while he's distracted Mikey used the opportunity to land a punch right on the face, a very solid punch that she broke his tooth.

Revenge is so sweet.

Xever is also having troubles when his face strikes with fright. He is still fast but these two other freaks are much stronger than those other freaks. The anxiety he feels rushes his body to avoid those blades from the blue freak before it can touch him but he can't land a hit on him. Xever is so focusing on getting away from the blue turtle that he forgot about the red turtle. Raph has always been going for offense but in this situation when his family is on the line he will protect them as a shield, for that he bypass Xever and when he saw the darkly tanned man touched the floor with his hands Raph knocked him down and Leo kicked him in the gut.

The Turtles have outwitted their opponent and the result is to see Xever and Chris are backing away from them till they cornered them in front of sewer tunnel.

"They knew we were following them!" His exclamation came too late and Mikey replies to him with a satisfied smirk.

"That's right, Bradford." She hissed at his name.

The man is filled with boiling fury that he blindly launches his fist but Mikey blocked it he tried again but Mikey is just too fast when she grabbed his other hand, he lunches another punch for the third time and got blocked again, then Mikey launch her punch, kick, and then palm punch under his chin. But, Mikey is not done yet, not when her heart got broken because of him, treated her like trash, and made a fool out of her. With the hurt, she feels it's time to bring the hurt Chris Bradford. She kicked him in the stomach and Chris felt like the air has blasted out of his lungs but then Mikey grabbed him by the face and she hit his nose with her knee, she can feel she had broken his nose, in which, ruining his beautiful image.

Now, it's time for the big finish. It's time to bring the Death Dragon onto Chris, the very same Kata he taught her, and thanks to his teaching she overpowers Chris and sending him pummeling to Xever.

Both men are down, groaning, and humiliated. But, not humiliated enough. Mikey turns to see Donnie and Leo next to the wheel and she exclaimed.

"Hit it!" Donnie and Leo turn the wheel and torrent of water are come crashing down on Xever and Chris as they are helplessly screamed of terror as the water flushes Xever and Chris over the side of a nearby ledge.

Now, they are completely humiliated. Raph stood next to his sister, grinning, and said.

"Well, that doesn't look fair at all."

"Nope, it doesn't," Leo replied and they all laughed as they head back home while rubbing their little sister's head tenderly so they can know that she's okay.

However, she's more concern with her Father; she bets on her shell that he'll be so mad his fur will flare up.

They've returned home with a little injury and they see Master Splinter waiting for them by the entrance. But he has his eyes set on his only daughter who she has her head down. She is scared as she walked up to him while keeping her head down. Her mouth is opening and closing like a fish not knowing what to say.

Then, she was engulfed by a warm and comforting hug from her Father the softness of his fur tickled her nose and one hand on his shell and the other on her head. She blinked in confusion, she thought he'll be mad or something, then the kind words from her Father had made her cry.

"I am so glad you're safe in my arms, my darling daughter." She choked and sobbed as she clutched her Father's robe afraid to let go while she is saying "sorry" so many times.

DONE IT! Okay, guys, it is done but it's complete yet. Only one chapter left for this story to finish. Are you guys excited or sad? Well, be prepared for the upcoming chapter of First Crush, Old Enemy.
