Jade groaned with discomfort as she rolled onto her stomach on the metal flooring of the battle shell, where she and Leonardo had spent the night. He leaned up slowly as he tilted his head from one side to the other, his neck pop with each movement as she grimaced.

"Do you always have to do that?" She said with annoyance, putting her hand to her forehead and then through her knotted hair as he looked over at her with a furrowed brow.

"Morning to you to, love." He said getting from the floor to put his pads back on. She sighed clipping her bra back over her breast, taking her shirt from the floor beside them.

"Sorry. I'm just…" He smirked a little falling to his knees next to her and kissing the side of her head.

"You're head is all over the place, I know." He said softly as she nodded her head with a sigh. She placed her hands on either side of his face kissing his lips.

"I love you." She said looking into his eyes as he smiled.

"Love you too. Now, lets go get breakfast or something, I'm starving." He said helping her to her feet as she smirked.

"Wonder why." She kissed his lips again as he followed her out of the back of the battle shell.

Leo wrapped an arm around her shoulder as she smiled to the slight tug he gave her body, gliding it under his strong arm and closer to his. She grabbed his hand with her own, holding it over her chest as she leaned her head down and kissed the top of it.

Jade furrowed her brow slowly turning her head over her shoulder as she stopped in her tracks feeling a rush of confusion crawl through her. Leo's arm fell from her shoulder as he kept walking before turned back towards her as she looked down the long driveway. She leaned forward a little to see towards the road.

"What is it?" He asked as she shrugged.

"Don't know. Just feel, I don't know." She sighed turning back towards him. "Something doesn't feel right, it's all around us in the air. Close, but, I can't figure it out."

"Is it a threat?" Leo asked looking in the direction she just was. She shrugged again and began walking back towards the house.

"I don't think so." She said looking back at him as he followed her.

"We should just be careful." He said, placing an arm back around her waist as she nodded her head, both of them looking around the vast woods around the house cautiously.

The two made their way into the house to be greeted by Donatello, April and Lexine sitting around the kitchen table with coffee mugs. April smiled at the two as Donnie got from his chair and took down two more coffee mugs for them, filling Jade's with coffee and Leo's with hot water.

"Tea is in the cabinet." He said taking a seat back down next to Lexi as she smiled putting her hand back in place on Donnie's thigh. Jade sighed with the hot mug in her hands drinking the liquid black as Leo grimaced at her.

"What?" She asked innocently, after licking her lips slowly.

"Nothing." He shrugged as she stuck her tongue out at him.

"Where did you two end up last night?" Lexi asked with a mischievous smile as Jade rolled her eyes.

"Outside." She said as the five all turned their heads to the wooden door on the porch slamming against its frame. Michelangelo and Fiona both shuffled into the living room, stretching and yawn on their way. Jade and Lexi looked at each other with growing smiles before the eldest twin got from her chair and poked her head out at the other and Mikey laying on the couch, Fiona on his plastron as he lay on his shell.

"Rough night?" Lexi chuckled as Fiona waved off her sister's comment. "Where'd you two sleep?"

"Hay loaf." They both grumbled as Lexi snorted in laughter.

"Is that what that smell is?" She said as the others in the kitchen starting laughing. They both groaned too tired for a rebuttal smart-aleck comment. "Go shower and then I'll give you food." Lexi said rolling her eyes as she walked back into the kitchen.

"Food?" Mikey said his head perking up. Fiona fell off his stomach with a yelp and onto the floor. She laid there for a moment, grumbling into the old carpet before giving Mikey's arm a hard shove.

"Ow!" She said as he chuckled sitting up.

"Sorry babe. C'mon let's go shower, then food!" He smirked as she groaned again as it turned into a slight yelp from his pull on her hand to get her to her feet.

Jade smiled at the two as they made their way up the stairs, opening the porch door to sit on the swing. She crossed her legs on the seat, keeping the warm cup in her hands as she sipped it slowly with an intent glare on the driveway, that bad feeling still crawling within her. She sighed closing her eyes and focusing on where it might be coming from. She felt betrayed, ashamed, anger, sadness, confusion. Mostly she felt almost too weak to focus. Her mind gave her scattered thoughts, images, memories that she couldn't grasp just one. She was being toyed with, but by who she couldn't place. She growled slowly taking in a slow breath.

A soft sound of tires rolling over stones in the driveway perked her head up as she furrowed her brow, opening her eyes to a large black van pulling into the driveway. She felt her heart jump in her throat as she got to her feet slowly and went into the house.

"We need to leave." She said quietly as the other's looked at her in confusion.

"What? Why?" Lexi asked as Jade shook her hands.

"No time, just back door. Now!" She said as Leo nodded his head and ran up the stairs telling the others.

"Wha…Why are we…" Lexi started as she looked out of the porch door through the screen, seeing men in all black uniforms walking around the yard. Her mouth dropped open slowly as she felt a hand wrap around her. Donnie tugged her body to follow him as she nodded and went with him quickly and as silently as they could.

Leo opened the rooms upstairs trying to find Raphael, Jacqueline, Mikey, Fiona and Casey. He knocked on the bathroom door as his brother opened it with a confused expression.

"Mikey get your things, we need to leave. Meet on the roof." Leo said before moving onto the next room. Mikey shut the door looking back at Fiona as she ran a towel through her raven hair.

"Babe, we're leaving." He said still a bit confused as Fiona arched a brow.

"Huh?"

"I-I don't know. Leo just…Just get dressed. He seemed freaked and Leo doesn't do that." Mikey said getting a little nervous as Fiona nodded her head and slipped on her clothing.

Casey was still fast asleep in the room him and April had been sharing at the end of the hall. Leo grabbed his human friend's shoulder giving it a harsh shake. Casey jolted upwards, smacking Leo's hand away.

"Hey man, what's the…" Leo placed a finger to his beak as Casey cut off his questioning and got from the bed grabbing his gear and a few of April's things on the way.

Jac and Raph were still asleep as well as Leo found them in the room Jade and he had shared their first night here. He crouched down on his brother's side. Without having to move him, Raphael opened one eye looking at his older brother.

"What?" He asked in a groggy, irritated tone as Leo's face was enough to wake him up. "What happened?" He asked sitting up a little as Leo quieted him down.

"Someone's here. Jade felt something earlier, we have to leave. Are you alright to fight if you have to?"

"If I gotta." He said sitting on the edge of the bed as he rotated his shoulder in his hand, messaging it for a moment. Leo nodded his head as he left the room for Raph to wake up Jac.

"Meet on the roof." Leo said before leaving as Raph nodded. He turned over his shoulder at Jac to her exposed backside, the sheet just stopping at her lower back as it slowly rose and fell with her light breathing of sleep. He smirked a little slowly gliding the tops of his fingers down her spine. She sighed softly, turning on her side as the sheet covering her naked body slid further down. He heard a noise downstairs and became aware of the situation at hand. Grabbing her clothes from the floor, Raphael shook her shoulder. She pushed her hands against the mattress as her eyes slowly opened, squinted to Raphael in front of her holding out her clothing.

"We gotta go babe." He said sliding on his gear and tying his crimson colors around his eyes. She furrowed her brow in a yawn and looked at him.

"Wh…Why?" She asked still half asleep as another noise crashed from down the stairs. He sighed and shoved her clothing at her.

"Ask me questions later, get dressed." She heard the urgency in his voice and quickly put her clothing on as Raph looked out of the window, seeing men in those black uniforms walking around the perimeter of the house. He motioned for Jac to follow him as she did, carefully and silently as he pulled her up onto the roof.

Mikey and Fiona both crouched in the middle as Raph and Jac made their way slowly towards them.

"Leo told us to meet at the lake." Mikey whispered as Raph nodded.

Fiona went invisible instantly as Mikey and Raph both jumped from the roof in a flip, landing without a sound as they quickly ran into the woods, ducking and rolling behind trees making their way towards the lake. Jac sighed looking over the edge seeing two men walk below her. She crouched and waited as they stood, talking to one another.

She growled to herself and waited as they both split up, walking around the other side of the house. She dropped down from the roof, trying to land as softly as she could but failed miserably, her thick soled boots made a loud thud as she bent her knees on impact. She sighed, rolling her eyes to herself as the two men both looked at her.

"We got one!" One said into his wrist band.

"Fuckin' a!" She said taking off in a run towards the woods. She looked over her shoulder as a group of men were quickly on her trail. She darted off in another direction from the lake to not let them follow her there. She'd take the long way.

Raphael looked over his shoulder as he stopped, his feet sliding against the dirt ground as Mikey turned and stopped too.

"What?" He asked his older brother as they both caught their breath.

"Jac…Where's Jac?" He said looking back towards Mikey as he shrugged.

"Wasn't she behind us?" He asked looking around the woods. Raph growled in his throat as he noticed Donnie and Lexine coming along side them.

"Why are you stopping? Let's go!" Lexi said.

"Jac wit you?" Raph asked as Lexi furrowed her brow.

"Oh no…" She sighed as Raph turned and punched a tree trunk.

"Damnit! I should have waited for her!" He said as Mikey sighed turning towards Fiona as she slowly became visible.

"We all should have Raphie." She said softly as he hung his head.

"Well, maybe she'll catch up. We have to go find Jade and Leo." Lex said starting to walk back towards the lake as the others nodded their heads and followed. "She's a big girl Raph, she can handle things herself." She reassured him as Raph took one last look towards the house and sighed following the others.

Jacqueline ran, dodging and jumping over tree braches that stuck out in her line of sight. Her legs started to burn, but she ignored the feeling turning on a heel and throwing out her arms as a fire ball shot out at the men chasing her. They held up their hands over their faces as the flame extinguished.

"Fuckin' flame retardant suits!" She said turning back in the direction she was headed in a sprint.

She felt the air get cooler on her sweat covered skin as she growled, darting off in another direction. She was getting closer to the lake, she had to lose them somehow. She tossed her bright red hair over her shoulder, taking a look to see how far behind the men were. She looked up at a tree she was next to and noticed a branch was low enough to the ground. She jumped up, grabbing the tree branch pulling herself up quickly. She jumped up again to another branch higher in the tree and crouched down. She noticed her bright hair fall in her face as she blew it out, sliding off her elastic on her wrist and pulling her hair back in a messy bun.

The guards from below stopped at her tree as they looked around the forest floor. She smirked to herself as she heard one say in his wrist band that they lost her. They gave one more look around before heading back towards the house. Jumping, slowly down to another branch she watched as they walked away.

Landing on the dirt ground she stayed crouched for a moment giving the area one more look around before taking off in a sprint towards the lake.

"Where's Jackie?" Jade asked as her and Leo both relaxed their fighting stances seeing the familiar faces of their siblings.

"She ain't here?" Raph asked pushing his way past the group. Jade shook her head looking at her sister's as they both shrugged.

"Ah! Leave it to her." She said throwing her arms in the air as Raph narrowed his eyes.

"It's my fault, don't take it out on her. I shoulda waited for her." He said crossing his arms as Jade looked over her shoulder at Raph.

"She'll be alright…" She said patting Raph's shoulder as he nudged her hand away going to sit by the water.

"This is bad." Fiona said chewing on her bottom lip. She jumped slightly as they all turned their heads to the noise coming through the woods. Raph walked forward, squinting as Leonardo, Donatello and Michelangelo all exposed their weapons, waiting in line behind their brother in red.

Jacqueline jumped over a bush, sliding to a stop as she smirked pushing her hair bangs from her face.

"What I miss?" She asked in between breaths as Raph sighed running over to her and wrapping his arms tightly around her body. She smiled and kissed him as he held tighter. "Hi Red." She whispered as he shook his head.

"What the hell is wrong wit you?" He asked nuzzling his face into the nape of her neck. She smiled wider patting his arms.

"Lotta stuff."

"Alright, now that we're all safe, what are we gonna do?" Donnie asked looking towards his older brother.

"We can take 'em." Jac said crossing her arms as Raph finally let her go out of his embrace. Leo sighed and shook his head.

"There's too many of them and we don't know what they are capable of. They might have weapons…"

"Which Jade can control." Jac said motioning towards her sister.

"I can't think…" She sighed as Jac narrowed her eyes.

"What the hell does that mean?"

"Since yesterday, it feels like my mind has been ripped from a connection. Like, I'm holding on by a thread."

"Well, fix it!" Jac said throwing her arms out.

"I can't just fix it Jackie!"

"Well you betta fuckin' thinka somethin'! We got the swat team from hell lookin' for us and this isn't exactly a large area!"

"Guys just calm down, we'll think…"

"Shut up Lexi!" The two eldest screamed in unison as they glared at each other.

"Ok…" Lexi said taking a step back next to Donnie.

"This is all your fault!" Jac screamed pointing towards her older sister.

"My fault?"

"Yeah! You put us all through this! You had to push us and push us to fight! Fight for some bullshit that don't even matta anymore!"

"I pushed you for the better! And it does matter! It should matter to all of you!" Jade screamed back.

"That wasn't apart of our lives anymore! You hadda pry into that note! You fell apart once you found out 'bout dad! You broke what we had because of him, because of Frank and his trainin'!"

"Frank was helping us…" Jade growled.

"We were fine before this all started but, you had to bring us there to know what was happenin'! Who cares what we are!? What does it matta about out powas?! We were livin' normal lives! For once in our fuckin' lives we were fine! All of us, even you! But no, as soon as that note happened you freaked!"

"I had reasons! I wanted to know! We all did! Don't stand there and tell me you didn't want to know about dad!"

"I did, fine! But, I wasn't obsessed with it! You just hadda know, and now looket this! You brought us here, to all this and this is all your fault!" Jac stopped for a moment and let her head fall as she tried to push back hot tears that worked their way to gloss over her eyes. "You were the reason we all got our memories erased in the first place…" She said in a low growl lifting her head back towards her sister. "You're the reason why dad left!" Jade's eyes narrowed.

Before she could think her hand struck across Jacqueline's cheek. The smack echoed through the woods as Jac kept her face turned away as a slow red mark of Jade's open palm appeared over her soft flesh. Jade's hand went to her mouth in shock. Lexine gasped in surprise as Fiona hid her face into Mikey's arm, as he put an arm around her back.

"Oh God. Jackie I'm so…" Before Jade could place a soft hand over the mark she left, a growl left the red head's throat and sprung at her sister. Their bodies collided as Jade tried to fight her off. Jac's fists were thrown left and right as Jade tired to open her palm to push her off of her body that was slammed hard into the dirt ground.

Raphael ran over to Jacqueline, picking her up off of her sister as her arms still flung furiously around, kicking her feet as Raph picked her up from the ground trying to hold her in place. Leonardo ran over to Jade as she was finally freed and pounced to her feet making a run towards her angry sister, her lip and cheek dripping with blood.

"Fuck you Jade! You ruined all of this! You had to drag us into this bullshit fight that is now too big for any of us to handle! We come here to get away and they find us! You couldn't even use your powers that you made us train and break our fuckin' backs for months and you couldn't even use yours?! You're a fuckin' hypocrite!"

"I was confused! I had a feeling…"

"A feelin'?" Jac scream tired to get her arms free as Raph held her tighter. "A feelin'?! Oh thank the fuckin' lord you had a feelin' otherwise we'd be out in the middle of the fuckin' woods hidin' from these bounty hunter lookin' motha fuckas. OH WAIT! We are!" She said as Jade's eyes turned into a glare.

The girl tried to make a run at her red headed sister again as Leonardo held her tightly in his iron grasp. She squirmed and grunted, hitting his forearms to get free. Jacqueline trying the same on the other side as Raphael sighed holding her arms tight.

"Will you two stop?! This isn't what we need right now!" Leo said shaking Jade as she growled.

"What do you want from me Jacqueline?! I'm sorry? Fine! I'm sorry! I can't help it! It is my fault dad left!" She said her voice cracking as tears were brought up. "He left because of me! He left mom because she didn't accept us as freaks! Is that what you want?! I'm sorry!"

"It's too late for your sorrys." Jac said in a low tone nodding her head looking past Jade as she saw a group of men running at them.

The men all cocked their guns at the group as Jade wiped the blood from her mouth looking over at Jacqueline who glared at her. Fiona clung onto Mikey's arm as Lexi and Donnie both held tightly onto each other's hands.

"I suppose you blame me too?" Jade asked Leonardo keeping her face forward. He looked down at her for a moment as she looked up at him a tear falling from her over flowing eyes. Before he could answer she broke away from the group.

"We'll come without a fight." She said putting her hands up. "Don't hurt them."

Raphael growled as Jacqueline was ripped from his side by a man, forcing her arms tightly behind her back as she was pushed to walk forward with Jade. Then again as his arms were gripped to be put behind his shell as another man came up to him with a smug smirk sliding his sais from his belt.

Donnie complied, tossing his bo staff in front of him as he placed his wrists to rest on his lower shell, soon to be gripped by a man pushing him forward. Lexine hand being pried from his as she kicked a little from her hands forced behind her. Jade shot her a look over her shoulder as Lexi sighed and calmed down looking back towards Donnie for a moment as he smiled.

Mikey followed his smart brother, leaning down and giving Fiona a kiss on the cheek before she was pulled to follow her older sisters. Tears steaming down her face, as her lip quivered when she mouthed the words 'I love you' to her orange clad boyfriend. He muster a smile for a moment mouthing the words 'you too' back. She gave a meek smile before being forced to look away from his glistening blue eyes.

Leonardo glared at the man going behind his shell and grimaced to the sound of his katana being unsheathed from their hold. He didn't stumble when he was forced forward in a shove, his arm being slightly twisted as the man behind him walked him towards the others.

"Way to go fearless." Jacqueline said keeping her face forward as Jade only sighed keeping her head up high as they were escorted back towards the farm house.

"I suppose I was wrong 'bout you." Hun smirked as he watched the group of eight being pushed out of the woods. Jade lifted her head up to meet Hun's smug smile. Her mouth dropped slowly as she darted her eyes over to a man standing next to him. He was different, she'd never seen him before. His long black jacket came inches from the ground, thin black tie with a white dress shirt underneath. His arms tightly braced behind him as his broad shoulders made him look more pronounced while standing next to Hun. His dark lens showing off a glimpse of his eyes, kept on her sisters as a slow smile spread over his face. She arched a brow slightly as Hun turned towards the man keeping his smile.

"I always hold up my end of the bargain when considering business. Tell your…Master that." Bishop smirked as he walked from Hun to the van.

AND THE PLOT THICKENS. DUN DUN DUN. I'm really excited about these next couple chapters. They're gonna be sweeeeettttt! lol.
