A/N: This is the first story that I post and I hope you guys like it... I hope to get a lot of reviews! Have fun!

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters related to TMNT and I don't own TMNT itself! I DO own my imagination =) (one of the characters (Mini,, the 'I' person =P) and the story.)

I looked around in the lair. I sat on the bench and watched the news. I sighed.

It was already a month ago I'd arrived here. And we still didn't know anything. I still couldn't go home.

At first it all seemed an adventure, I felt exited. But now, I really started to miss home. The boys were great, they were really awesome, that was sure. The brothers I never had, but I missed my friends, missed the place I knew and I hated to admit it, but I even missed my parents.

"What are you doing?". I heared Donatello sitting next to me, but I didn't look at him.

I shrugged. "Watching television."

"Heey, we are really working hard to...", Don started, but I interrupted. "I know, I know. And I really appreciate it, really! It's just... well..."

"You miss home," Leo interrupted.

I nodded. I was getting used to their sudden appearances. Time was going fast.

"It'll be alright," Leo said and I nodded again.

I didn't know what to say anymore. Everything was said already, a hundred times maybe.

"You want to go topside?" Leo asked.

I turned around quickly. "Really?"

"Yeah, it'll be good for you," Leo said, smiling. He was clearly relieved he found something to cheer me up.

"Alright!" I yelled while I jumped up.

"If you want to go to get Mike and Raph, then Don and I will go preparing..."

"You get the sourpuss," I told Leo, "Then I'll get Mikey..." We started to stare at eachother.

In the month I'd been here, the relationship between me and Raphael hadn't improved. It was actually the other way around. We wrangled a lot and at times like this, we refused to talk to eachother. Maybe we fought because we were both stubborn, but I didn't care. He was just a pain and very annoying.

"No, you get Raph too..."

"Then Raph's not coming, you know I'm not gonna get him..."

Leonardo sighed, he knew he could not win from me. "Fine, I'll get Raph... Don you get the stuff?"

Donatello nodded. I ran up to Mikey's room, while Leo knocked on Raph's door.

"Mikey!", I yelled when I ran into his chamber, "We're going topside!"

"Awesome!", Michelangelo yelled in turn, while he jumped from his bed. Comic's flew everywhere, just like chips and popcorn. I just caught his bottle of soda in time before it hit the ground. Mickey stared at me and then smiled. "Good reflexes."

I grinned back. "Thanks."

We were on a roof, somewhere in the city. I lost the track of time and place a long time ago, but it was great to feel the wind play with my hair. I breathed in deeply and trough the stench of the many cars in the city, I could smell the evening.

"Watch the edge, kid."

I sighed. "Yeah, yeah...". I did a step back from the edge of the building. "Better?"

"Close your jacket, or you'll catch a cold."

With a bit aggression I closed my zipper. "Anything else?"

"I want to go home."

I turned around fastly and looked at the figures behind me. Leo stood with his arms crossed, staring at me. Don and Mikey were annoying eachother, actually, Mikey was annoying Don. Raphael stood partly in the shadows, leaning against the wall, slightly casting glances on me.

"Guys! Come on!", I said. "I haven't been on the surface in two weeks!"

Don threw his hands in the air. "I didn't say I want to go home."

"No," I answered, glancing at him. "But you were moaning about my jacket..."

"Well," Leo said. "Maybe we should go home..."

"Finally!", Raph sighed angrily. He emerged from the shadows.

"Leo!", I yelled at the same time.

"It is getting late, you should go to bed...", he answered seriously.

I stared at him with unbelief. "Leo... you're kidding me... right?"

He'd tried it many times at the lair. But everytime he tried to send me to bed, something had come in between, so he forgot.

"No," he said, still being serious.

"Come on," Raphael said. "Let's get going."

"Come on, kid...", Michelangelo said and he gestured to his back.

"But... Mikey...", I tried to refuse, but he shook his head.

"We'll watch a movie at home, okay?", he whispered. He gave a wink.

I sighed. "Okay..."

I wanted to jump on his back when there was a sudden 'BANG!'. Suddenly, everything I saw was smoke and darkness. I got thrown on the ground by someone or something, then I felt someone grab me again and I felt that we jumped around fastly. Then I got thrown on the ground again. I felt a wall behind me. In the meanwhile I heard screaming and yelling, I heard people moving around and I heared something that sounded like metal against metal.

Then the screaming stopped. I didn't hear metal clashing, I didn't hear people moving anymore. I hadn't feel fright, not even a second. Everything had happenend so fast. My brain hadn't had enough time to register everything, but now my brain finally started to catch up.

And the more my brain caught up, the more fright I felt. Suddenly I understood that we had been under an attack and that the silence maybe meant that the turtles... that my friends...

I shook my head, that was not true. No, it couldn't be true.

I felt the urge to scream, to call out their names. But there was a certain mood in the air that stopped me, like the air got heavier and loaded with anger and hatred. I felt someone else was here too.

I was suprised of myself. I really felt that way? Could I really sense all these things?

In the meanwhile the smoke got thinner and thinner and I started to see some lines. Eventually that lines turned into figures and even later that figures turned into people. In front of me were the turtles. They were in a fighting stance, I had seen them doing that while they were training with master Splinter.

They weren't facing me though, they were facing someone else.

At the opposite of us where men in ninja suits, their faces hidden. There was also standing a woman in front of them, but you could see her face clearly, her swords reflecting the moonlight slightly. Her hair was short and black, a red band around her forehead and she wore the same suit as the men behind her.

Apart from the ninja-men still standing, there were plenty that were lying on the ground. Their weapons laid next to them, beaten.

I stared at the scene with big eyes, my heart now beating in my throat. I was frozen.

"Well, well," the woman said. "Turtles."

"Karai," Leo growled. His voice startled me a bit, I'd never heard him that angry. And I'd never felt that much hatred around me.

"What do you want?", Raphael yelled at the woman, apparently named Karai.

"I want the girl," she said, while she pointed at me. I froze even more, if that was even possible.

I saw the turtles getting closer to eachother, in order to protect me. It only made it for me impossible to see what happenend.

"Why?" Don asked. He sounded worried, but I felt he was curious.

Again, I was surprised I knew that, but I blocked it out of my head. I had to concentrate on what was happening here and now.

"Why would I tell you?", I heard the woman ask amused.

"Never mind," Raphael said. "I don't wanna know, just back of, or we'll kick the shell out of you."

I heard the woman laugh, but it wasn't a warm one. It sounded cold hearted and sharp, it gave me goosebumps. "Like I'm afraid of you..."

I heard Raphael growling. It only wasn't the annoying growl he always gave me, it was different. I realized this one was a growl of anger and hatred. My heart slowed down a bit, it meant he did care about me a bit and it made me feel more save somehow.

It started to become a stare competition. Nobody moved, you could only see that they weren't statues by their body's moving up and down by every breath they took. I felt the tention in the air grow every minute that passed by.

Suddenly there was a sound. It wasn't loud, but it was clearly audible in the silence of the night.

And as reaction, like the startsign of a game, everything started to move. The other ninja's attacked. Mikey, Don and Raph took the hits from the ninja's and Leo run towards Karai. Soon, ninja's started to fly through the air.

I looked at Donatello. He had his Bo in his hand and turned and twisted it with simple movements. Between the turns, he hit many ninja's, without them hitting him.

Suddenly I heared a scream, I turned my head and saw Michelangelo fighting. His Nunchakus flying around dangerously, taking out ninja's one by one. The fast, twisting Nunchuks made me a bit dizzy, so I turned away and watched Raphael.

I know I did much complaining about Raphael, but I had to admit, he could fight. His sais' flashed threatening with every move he made, and with each flash, a couple of ninja's colapsed.

I heared laughter. It was a sharp, mean laugh. The woman. My eyes rushed over the rooftop, searching for Leonardo and the woman he was fighting. Then I saw them. They were pushing their katana's against eachother, neither of them wanting to give up. I saw they were talking against eachother.

Probably trashtalk, I thought. But I felt they were discussing something importent. Again a feeling that I couldn't explain, but I just felt the urge, the need to hear what they were talking about.

I didn't had many time to think of it, though.

I saw something black entering my vision and I could get out of the way just in time, before a ninja in black fell on me. He hit the wall instead of me and he didn't move. He was so close now. I could see his chest rise and fall with every breath he took. It was a slow, steady breath and on my knees I approached slowly.

Suddenly, he shook his head and I fell back, slowly creating more distance again, between me and the killer machine in front of me. Which was now too close for comfort.

He slowly rose his head and seemed a bit dazed. He looked around, like he didn't know where he was. I froze, afraid that he would see me. His head then seemed to lock on the battlefield before him. I figured he probably remembered what was happening around him and what he was meant to do.

But all the sudden, he turned his head fastly and he looked right at me.
