Hi guys! I know I'm the worse updater in history, but I thank those who have stuck with my story after all these years. :P Seriously, you guys deserve a cookie or something. So here you guys go, and I'm going to try to update as regularly as possible. I will attempt to have the next chapter up in at least two weeks instead of two months.

You guys are seriously the best,

Domitian

I do not own the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.


This time when the scream burst from Leah's lips an invisible wave of energy pulsated out of her body and her eyes began to glow much like a car that forgets to change its lights from bright. Her mouth was moving silently as her hand tried to move towards her hips. This did not go unnoticed by Leonardo. His eyes got intense as he traced where the hand would be if it could make it to its destination. That's when he spotted the gun. He removed it from her hip, and saw her hand stop trying to move.

"What is that!" Mallory suddenly exclaimed her eyes wide.

"It looks like…blood," he said in confusion.

"Give it to me quick!" she demanded almost snatching the gun away from him and plunged the needle into the young girl's chest releasing the liquid into her daughter's arteries.

Leah's body stiffened and her eyes widened even more as the glowing in her eyes became more intense. Suddenly another pulse of energy exploded from the young ninja another scream tore into the sky. They could hear sickening cracks in Leah's body when suddenly she went limp, her moaning ceased, and her eyes began to dim until they finally went out. Leo and Mallory panicked.

"She's turning blue!" Leo exclaimed his voice beyond hysteric.

"NO!" Mallory screamed desperately as she began to use CPR on her doomed daughter.

Leo moaned. He was going to lose her. She was not going to live through her change. His heart ripped open as he nearly fell from the emotional explosion. He began regretting rejecting her when he first met her, and remembering her beautiful smile. He would not remember her as she was now, but the strong kunoichi she had been. He felt three hands on his shoulders. His brothers had not left him. They had no words and he didn't need them. He could see the concern and comfort in their eyes.

Mallory growled at Leo, "Do not lose hope, turtle! Please! She will live!" the Foot ninja's denial said to him.

It was then something that sounded like a crackling radio station reached their ears. Leo looked up to see a magnificent being poof out of nowhere. Had Leo not just witnessed the death of the girl he loved he would have been more impressed. The stranger was abnormally pale with gargoyle shaped feet and clawed hands. His eyes glowed with a blue dot as his pupil, and long white hair fell from the center part in his head. The alien's face looked alarmed and desperate, and when he saw Leah in her mother's arms he fell to his knees.

"No, I…I was too late to save her," he cried staring at Leah with such affection she could have been his daughter.

That was when he realized she was his daughter. He was staring at Leah's father. The turtle's eyes widened. Leah would have looked just like that if she had lived. Mallory hadn't even noticed the stranger. Her mind wrapped around how to save her daughter.

Leo walked up to her body grief stricken. It was like he was walking through a fog towards her. He got on his knees beside her and slowly took Leah's head from her mother and placed it in his lap. He pushed the white hair from her eyes, and tears fell onto her face. Funny, he hadn't realized he was crying. He kissed his lips to hers, and hugged her close. Leo then whispered in her ear, "I love you," and closed her eyes.

He began to set her back down when a loud rumbling began throughout the city. He frowned wondering if it was it an earthquake. Everyone else began to notice as the stranger panicked. His eyes widened and his body stiffened.

"We need to get out of here now!" he screamed when Leah's eyes suddenly snapped open and her body began to crack an snap again only this time Leah did not act as if she felt the pain more like embraced her change.

"Grab onto me quickly! All of you, it doesn't matter where just touch me somewhere! We will all die if we stay!" he continued as everyone scrambled to get a hold on the strange man.

They all began to swirl around as the crackling noise returned until finally they found themselves in a large chrome room. The minute their particles reassembled they all fell to their knees except for the stranger. As Leo got a good look around the place the people in blue suits began staring at him. The leader looked for his brothers and made sure he found all of them.

"Leo, where are we?" Raph asked even though he knew Leo had no clue.

"It looks like something from the future," Donnie replied in awe at the technology.

"Wait, did we time travel?" Mikey asked holding his stomach, "I think I'm going to barf."

Raph rolled his eyes, "Just keep it down, Mikey," he sighed.

"I have brought you all to my ship until the change has passed," the stranger replied as a man in a black suit approached him.

"You mean she is going to live?" Leo asked hopefully with Mallory wide-eyed behind him.

"There is still a slim chance she may not live, but the hard part is over now. The probability of her death has dropped considerably. It is a day of celebration," the stranger replied a large grin on his face.

"Prepare the ship!" he bellowed, "For there is a new royal in the family!"

A series of cheers exploded in the ship and chaos soon unfolded as all the blue suited people hurried about to decorate the ship. Mallory and the turtles looked on with confusion when a loud bleeping interrupted the strange people's work. The stranger rushed back into the room wearing a large crown and expensive looking robes. He pulled up a holographic keyboard and began fooling with it. Leo could only picture Donnie drooling. Suddenly, a large screen big enough for a movie theater appeared with a creature even more magnificent than Leah's father had been. His voice sounded like a deep bell rumbling through your chest.

"You have left the celebration without even telling me," the man stated as if disappointed, "And you yet have a smile on your face! What is the meaning of this?"

The strange creature cringed at the tone the guy was using, "Father, I have a daughter, and she just survived the transition!" he explained quickly.

"I beg your pardon, Yida! If you are going to make excuses at least make good ones!" the screen shouted insulted.

"Father, I am not lying. I felt her, and that is why I have been so out of it lately. She survived father," Yida replied in awe as the figure's eyes widened.

It looked skeptical but accepted his son's explanation, "I would like to meet her. Bring her back to Metra Hul when you are able, I'm sure she will enjoy the Yalminch," the figure concluded beeping off the screen.

"You wouldn't happen to have some kinda tv here would ya?" Leo heard his youngest brother asking the guy in a black suit.

"Tv?" the guy asked confused, "And what would that be?"

Mikey nearly exploded in disbelief, "You don't know what a tv is!" he shouted as the guy sighed and shook his head muttering 'earthlings' under his breath.

"Chorn, I can pull it up on the screen by hacking into one of the wireless frequencies," Yida stated as Mikey nearly hugged him.

"Thanks, put it on-," Mikey began, but was interrupted by Leo.

"Put it on channel fifty one," the turtle leader said as Mikey groaned.

"Leo, I don't wanna watch the news," he whined.

"Done," Yida replied as a news man stood in front of the Foot building.

"It would appear the source of these explosions are coming from this building. There are rumors that is a terrorist attack beginning as the bomb squads everywhere are checking various buildings, but it would appear that no man can get near the building without being shredded to bits."

Leo and everyone else watched in awe at the magnificence sight on the tv.


Well, looks like Leah survived! (: I admit I came close to letting her die, but I couldn't dare let her go. She's like my imaginary daughter. :P But a review on what you think will happen next or what you thought about the chapter would be appreciated. Help me get the creative juices flowing! (:
