Hey guys! i am finally updating trapped yay! :D

So sorry for the long wait TT^TT...

now for the chappie :D

Soon arriving at the lair the three brothers started searching the place. Even as tired as they were they wanted to make sure that everything was in place and no hidden cameras were placed. Also to see if she was gone. "Guys, I can't find her anywhere I look have any of you found her?" Donatello asked while coming out from the kitchen.
"Me neither how about you Raph?" Leonardo said walking to the living room continuing the search. "Well I haven't foun'—ompff!" Raphael started saying but tripped on something that made him tumble to the floor. Looking at what he had tripped himself with he saw the girl he was looking for just seconds ago. "Foun' her!" Raphael announced to his brothers. Standing up the still human disguised turtle went to pick her up bridal style and take the girl to the couch in their living room, Leo and Donnie quickly following.

Cree started to regain consciousness still in Raphael's arms. Slowly opening her eyes the girl started to look around somewhat dazed and still not noticing she was being held. Groaning Cree began to move so she could get up from wherever she was. Though she quickly found that it was getting harder and harder to move. Like someone trying to keep her in place. "Stop moving yer gonna fall if you keep at it" a voice said making Cree look where the voice had come from. Upwards.
"Good tah see yer awake" Raphael said still walking towards the couch settling her down on it. Though fortunately for her nobody saw the blush that was on her face. Finally when the fogginess left her Cree notice that the turtle in red was still human. "You haven't removed the ring I lend you?" She asked. Raphael looked down to his hand and said "guess not, wit all that been happenin' I guess I fergot"
"You should take it off, the ring has lasting side effects" Cree sad slightly sitting up."And yah tell me this now!?" Raphael asked as he tried to yank the ring of. But it wouldn't budge. "Great, it won't come off" he said with some panic and anger in his voice. Cree sighed and said "come're, I'll get if off" as she reached for his calloused human hand and began to work on some buttons the ring had. And after a few seconds the thing was off.

"You know if it wasn't for the fact that I'm bummed because Mikey got away and I'm dead-beat tired I would so tease the two of you on how cute you guys look right now" Leonardo said from behind the couch. At this Raphael blushed some, Cree as well and to change the subject quickly she asked "So Michelangelo got away?"

"Yeah, It's like we couldn't even touch him and he showed some skills we never knew he could even do before!" Donatello explained as he came over and plopped himself on the ragged couch next to the girl.

"That's not surprising" the girl simply said. Now all three brothers looked at the girl with a mixture of surprise and confuse on their faces.

"Care to explain?" Raphael said with slight inpatients.

"Well let's just say that when I injected the potion into him I also meddled with his head –per Shredders orders- before he had succumbed to it and gave him, as you guys might call it, an 'upgrade" Cree said in a matter of fact tone.

"Why didn't you tell us before now?" Donatello asked before Raphael opened his mouth.

"You didn't ask" she said simply. "But don't worry that is only temporary, I made sure of it. When my 'upgrade' expires Michelangelo will be unable to use any of the abilities I 'programmed' him with" Cree continued to say as she tried to get up. Doing so made her head spin a little but she stood either way.
"How come?" Raphael asked. Cree looked at him, smirked and said "you can't do what you don't know, can you?"

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

"So where are we going exactly?" Donatello asked as he drove in the battle-shell.

"Take a left here" Cree said ignoring the purple wearing terrapin's question, and Donatello did as told saying nothing else. Moving to the back of the van Cree went to stand in front Raphael and extended her hand toward him. "Give me it" she simply said.
At this Raphael looked up at her and said "give what?"

"The unicorn that's stuck in your left pocket" Cree said sarcastically and both the girl and red wearing turtle could hear the other two turtles chuckle a little. "you know I mean the controller. Give it to me" she said a second later.
"Oh you mean this thing" Raphael said taking the controller that manipulated Cree from his left belt pocket.

"Yes" she said.

"I don't think so"

"And why not?" Cree asked furrowing her brow.

"Because I don't trust yah" he said in a matter of fact tone.

"With what? The remote that controls the machine that's near my heart? I don't think I am dumb enough to want to electrocute myself." Cree said with sarcasm.

"Not that. What's tah tell me that if I hand this to yah and yah won't disappear on us" he said bluntly.

The van now grew silent. Even Leo and Donnie had quietly been paying attention to their conversation. After a few seconds Cree asked "What makes you think I would?" barely above a whisper. "Tell me, before you got a hold of that remote was I not with you guys trying to help Michelangelo? Did I not stake my life on helping you? Was I not with Donatello making the cure which is now completely useless even after you had it? You know if the control was all I really had wanted I would have stolen it the minute you had told me you had it and had disappeared… yet here I am."

Again the van went silent after she finished talking and after a minute Raphael sighed "tell yah what, if yah manage tah snatch it from my hand it's yers to keep but if yah don't I get tah keep until we know Mikey is definitely hundred percent brain-wash free"
Cree smiled and said "I accept your challenge but before that-" she turned to the purple wearing terrapin "Donatello turn right then after four miles turn left when you see a white wooded house tell me alright?"

"Sure thing" he said from the driver's seat. The girl turned back to the turtle in red "ready?" she asked. Said turtle nodded and held the remote out to her "you got three—" Raphael began to say but soon found that the remote was no longer in his hand it was in Cree's. He's eyes widened when what just happened processed through his mind.

"Hey! Yah cheated!" he said.

"No I didn't!" Cree said in defense trying not to smile.

"See yer smilin' that means yah cheated!" Raphael said.

"No I didn't, you said that if I snatched it I could keep it. I asked you if you were ready and you nodded yes. So I went for it, I don't think that's cheating" she said smiling at the red wearing terrapin. "You can even ask Leonardo, he was a witness. Right Leonardo?" Cree said turning to said turtle.

"Sure" was the only thing he said.

"Cree, you said a white wooden house right?" Donatello asked four miles later of riding the battle shell. Heading towards the passenger seat she looked towards the house he had mentioned. "Yeah that's the one. Please park next to it" she said and Donatello did as asked. Once parked Cree said "okay you guys wait here. I need to check something in the house alright?" and they all nodded an affirmative. Cree opened the van's door and quickly yet stealthily went inside the house.

"What do you guys think? Can we trust her?" Donnie asked once he was sure she was out of ear-shot.

"We can't say yet Donnie. Even though she hasn't betrayed us yet, she has neither proven herself worth our trust… for all we know this could be a trap and we're just walking straight to it" Leo said from where he sat.

"Well what she said before is true Leo" Raphael commented.

"I know Raph but… what if all that she has done is only and elaborate plan made by the shredder to eliminate us?" he asked.

"well we'll just have tah see what happens next now won' we?"

After a few minutes the light-brown headed girl came back to the van. She opened the battle shell's door and all three terrapin could see the evident smile she had on her face.
"Alright you three I have gained permission for you to stay here for a couple of days" she said. For a moment none of them said anything until the words Cree had said finally sunk in. "What!?" All three shouted in unison.

"I said that the three of you-"

"We heard watcha said" Raphael said interrupting her.

"Then why ask what?" The girl asked.

"What as in what dah yah mean we're stayin' here foh a coupe o' days?"
Cree looked confused. "We'll technically you can't stay at your place since Michelangelo is now at Shredder's side. He will send troop if not already to go after you three"

"And what do you mean you got 'permission'?" Leonardo asks this time.

"We'll to have permission is to-" the girl began but was yet again interrupted by the red wearing terrapin.

"He don' mean it like that. He means who gave yah the permission" he said.

"The owners of the house of course. I call them family. This used to be my house when I was younger" she replied.

"But don't you think they'll freak out?" Donatello this time asked.

"Why would they?"

"Oh I don't know maybe cus' we have pink fleshed, hair and are not caryin' any dangerous weapons" Raphael said with sarcasm.

"oh, you mean because of you being turtles and are carrying dangerous weapons? Not to worry you will not frighten them"

At this the three terrapin were now suspicious. Not frightened by giant mutated turtles? What normal human wouldn't be?
Noticing their expressions Cree said "Long story short Shredder experimented on them with some glowing green ooze which mutated them. So no I didn't bring you here for you to be ambushed." After that the girl quickly ushered them to the wooden house. Once inside the turtles could see some truth in what Cree had said. Right now there were about ten people in front of them who looked like giant two legged alligators and maybe even a gecko if they weren't mistaken. The first one they spotted was the obviously tallest and oldest of the ten. He was definitely an alligator, with very wide shoulders, a lean body from what they could tell, he was a lime green kind of color, wore a plain striped button down shirt and some jeans and had jade colored eyes. The others were much shorter than this one, though they share the same kind color only in different shade some either darker or lighter green than the others. All of them wearing almost the same thing. The gecko seemed almost the same age as the turtles he was the only one they could see a different color. Wore a red shirt with some kind of logo on it and white shorts. He was a grey-green kind of color and his arms, legs –from what they could see- and long tail were the color of ocean blue. Also he had ice blue colored eyes.

"I reckon dis are teh ones yah want us tah train fer teh next couple o' days? What are they, Turtles?" the tallest one said with a heavy cowboy accent. Cree chuckled a little saying "Yes they are and yes they are indeed turtles, Jet"
Raphael looked at each and every one of them. "Guy's is it jus' me or did we jus' walk into leather-head's long lost family?" he asked his brother's in a whisper of a tone.
"Well I wouldn't be surprised if we did…" Donatello said in the same whispered tone. "I agree" Leonardo said still in awe of what he saw in front of him.
"Alright, I'll train them but at least tell me they know the basics of fightin' cus If they don' I don' want tah get stuck teaching a bunch of novices in diapers" Jet said firmly towards the terrapins. Which Raphael had caught on quickly that the alligator was insulting them purposely. "Novices in diapers!? I'll have you know that I ain't afraid of yah jus cus you're four heads taller than I am. Yah cheap briefcase" Raphael said already getting angry.
"Is that so? Then let's see watcha got shrimp" Jet said in turn taking a battle stance. Raphael doing the same. Cree sighed and said "Jet knock it off we don't have time to be playing my horse is bigger than yours. Raphael it would be a big help for you not to lose your cool so soon" Cree said getting in between the two of them. Jet looked like he didn't want to back down from the challenge but a stern look from the girl and he quickly did as asked, Raphael as well.
"Um.. Cree a word if I may" said Donatello from where he stood. Cree went to him and said "yea? What's up?"

"What do you mean by them training us? we are already skilled in the art of ninjutsu and can handle ourselves pretty well against the foot" he said. Cree sighed and stepped a few feet away from the purple wearing terrapin. "I'll show you why. Attack me" Cree said to him. Donatello was momentarily surprised by what she had just said. Him, attack her? But why—
"Donatello, I did not ask for you to attack me. I ordered you too" she said with a serious tone. She quickly noticed Raphael and Leonardo's expression change from confused to slight anger.

"Hey wait a minute. What makes yah think yah can order mah brother around" Raphael said stepping forward.

"I think nothing of sorts Raphael. He asked why would I make them train you three, I am simply giving him an answer. One that he can see and understand better." Cree said in the same serious tone.

"Doin' it by ordering him around won't make him understand nothing" he said slighty more angry. At this the brunette smirked wide knowing that it would only make the red wearing terrapin angrier and Raphael was indeed getting angrier.

"Fine. You attack me then. Unless you're afraid of being beat by a girl that is..." she said just to put the cherry on top.
In that moment the only thought that rang through Leo and Donnie's head was 'She has a death-wish doesn't she?' as Raphael went forward lifting his arms so he could attack her. Without missing a beat Cree grabbed both of his arm and lifted her left foot to hit his abdominal area –making herself tumble to her back and Raph tumbling forward—, lifted her right foot to hit his neck, letting go of his right arm in the process, bringing him to the floor straining him in place with her legs. Since she still had a hold to his left arm Cree then leaned back with his arm until she heard painful grunt come out of the hot-headed turtle.
After a second passed Cree let Raphael go and she stood up to look at Donatello. Raphael stood as well holding his left arm and went to stand next to the blue banded brother.

"See now what I mean? I defeated him. Didn't even break a sweat. If by the end of this training if you can't either beat me or make me surrender. You will have no chance of winning against the foot and bringing Michelangelo back. Believe it or not the foot are getting stronger and that is why I will not only train your body I will also train your mind I will make you use every little ounce you have of that brain. Each will have different teachers or sensei as you may be accustomed. The only break you will have is for eating, sleeping and on the weekends" she said as she also explained the house rules and such. Now she started to assign the turtles to their sensei.
"Leonardo, you will be trained by Remy and Sauri. Any questions?" she asked him. Leo only shook his head 'no'.

"Donatello, you will be trained by Kovu and Miila. Any questions?" again all Cree received was a 'no'.

Now she looked toward Raphael and smiled. "Raphael you will be trained by Jet and myself. Any questions?" she asked once again.

"Yeah I got one. How come we three got different teachers?" Raphael asked.

"Everyone learns at their own pace Raphael" she said but soon continued when Cree saw confusion on his face. "Let me put it like this. Both you and Donatello are in the first level. While Donatello may exceed in brains he lacks in brawns, you are his vice-versa where you exceed in brawn you lack in brains in other words neither of you are balanced. Leonardo on the other hand is in the second level since his brains and brawns balanced." She said whilst gesturing to each of the turtles as she spoke "True, I could have been Leonardo's sensei for this but I figured that I wouldn't want Sauri being a victim of your short temper. At least Jet here can take some of it."

"Some? Girl y'all insultin' me right there" the alligator said in a annoyed tone from where he stood behind her. Cree ignored his comment and proceeded to lead the turtles to the underground dojo they had installed a few years back. "Here is where you will train for the next few days" she said taking them from room to room. She also showed them which room each would train in. "At the end of each week you shall battle me and I will decide if you are improving or not" she said briefly and then showed them the rooms they were to stay in. After she finished the tour Cree left the turtles to 'check' some equipment. Leaving them with the almost seven foot tall alligator. "Ya"ll better get some rest. Tomarraw will be startin' early in teh mornin" Jet said also leaving the turtles to turtles bid each other goodnight and went to their assigned rooms to sleep for when the next day comes they are going to need every ounce of energy they have.
