A now ten year old Digital hacked her wooden katana away trying to land a mark on Raph. Her blue eyes were furrowed in concentration and were protected by black rimmed glasses.

Raph had taken it upon himself to help Digital practice, considering his strong suit was fighting. At times Leo would help, but he mainly taught her meditation.

Digital liked to keep a busy schedule so she awoke at eight in the morning and got dressed leaving a little free time till nine. She practiced from ten to twelve then did school sessions with Donnie from twelve to four. In between school and practice she'd normally eat a lunch. From four to four-thirty she'd meditate,
and from four-thirty to seven she'd practice. Then she'd help Mikey prepare dinner, and she'd have free time from eight to ten.

It's the way she liked it. It's the way she made it. She made a schedule to help herself keep up with ninjitsu, meditation, and school work. But weekends were hers. She could choose whatever she wanted to do on those days. On weekends she'd practice a little, not making it her major priority. She'd meditate a bit longer than her normal schedule and even read her textbooks on her own.

But one of her favorite things to do was science. She could often be caught in Donnie's lab mixing certain chemicals and making her own attempts at retromutagen. Though, Donnie made her wear a full body suit if she wanted to mess with mutagen. And even then he supervised her at all times.

Raph nodded in approval when Digital's wooden katana landed on his chest with excellent precision. It was so exact that if Digital's katana were real it would have killed Raph instantly if she had decided to impale him. "Great job, Digital. You're getting better everyday."

Digital smiled as she panted and she slowly moved the sword off of Raph's chest. As soon as she did, Raph took her head and gave her a noogie. "Ah! Uncle Raph!" She giggled as he dug his knuckles into her head.

He smiled at his niece. She brought out the best in him. "Is uncle Casey and aunt April coming tonight?"
Digital asked innocently. Raph smiled and stopped his noogie. Casey was fond of the child. And today was Digital's tenth birthday. Casey had promised to take her out for a motorcycle ride today. Digital had always loved motorcycles. She was trying to learn the function of them so she could build her own one day.

"Of course they are, Digi. It's your tenth birthday. They wouldn't miss it for the world. Today you turn double digits." Raph said as he playfully smacked Digital in the side of the head gently.

"I'm two full hands!" She said excitedly. She had been planning her tenth birthday for four months. She was extremely excited to ride Casey's motorcycle with him. She was surprised her father had let her ride with him. He was very protective of her, but that was to be expected after the way he had seen her get treated by her biological parents. She sighed and looked to the floor.

"What do you think my brother would say?" She asked as she rubbed the side of her arm. Raph's eyes widened. She hadn't talked much of her brother around him, but he knew of his story. Raph closed his eyes and sat on the dojo floor, pulling Digital into his lap.

"I think he'd be proud of you. You're an amazing child and a genius at that. Your always caring for others more than yourself. You're a quick learner and are an amazing niece. I bet Donnie right now would say that you are an amazing daughter." Raph could see this wasn't changing his niece's mood so he did the next best thing and began to tickle her. "Also your laugh is down right adorable"

Digital laughed uncontroallably as she desperately tried to get away from Raph. "Stop it R-Raph! D-Daddy! H-Help me!" She cried through her laughs. Donnie entered the dojo and smiled evilly and joined in on Raphael's tickle torture. "T-Traitor!" Digital giggled out. Slowly the two laid off of the birthday girl and Donnie placed her on his shoulders.

"T-Traitor." Digital giggled as she caught her breath. Donnie just smiled as he took her out into the living room and flipped her off of his shoulders and onto the couch. Mikey smiled as his best friend fell beside him and wrapped his arms around her.

"Yo, what up, my girl?" Mikey asked happily. Digital giggled and scrambled to get out of his grip.

"Not you too, Mikey!" She begged. Mikey just laughed and placed her on his shoulders and walked to the kitchen where he was making her cake. He bent down so he could show her the inside of the oven. When she peered in she saw a confetti cake slowly rise.

"You can help ice it." He proclaimed and Digital's face lit up like a lightbulb.

"R-Really?"

"Shoosh yeah. It's your cake, dudette." Mikey laughed as he left the kitchen with Digital still sitting high and pretty on his shoulders.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Now was the time. It was time for her birthday party to begin! Digital was so excited! April and Casey showed up as promised and so did Leatherhead and Icecream Kitty! She sat on a chair in the living room as her presents were handed to her. Though, she was very thankful for them she was anticipating the motorcycle ride that Casey promised.

She had gotten a beautiful night gown from Leatherhead, a picture of her and her Hamato family from Splinter, books from Leo, a building kit from Raph, cook books from Mikey, and real katanas from her father.

Digital had looked at her father in disbelief. "Seriously?" She asked and her face brightened up when he nodded. She grinned and ran up and hugged him tightly. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

He grinned and patted her back and turned her around for the final present from April and Casey who had married a year ago. She opened the package with delicacy and gapes with disbelief and excitement.

A helmet.

A motorcycle helmet. With pink and white swirls. She ran up to Casey and April and hugged them tightly,
saying the same to them as she did to her dad.

"You ready to go, kid?" Casey asked as he ruffled her hair. She nodded violently and had Casey put on her helmet so he could make all of the necessary adjustments to it. He placed Digital on his shoulders and took her topside. He placed her on the back of his motorcycle and he sat at the front. "Hold on!" He told her as he reved up the motorcycle and took off.

Digital was exhilerated. The wind was blowing through her hair and they were going at massive speeds.
Well, speeds within the speed limit. But it felt like massive speed. The enjoyment lasted for all of fifteen minutes.

Then it happened.

In a flash there were hundreds and hundreds of foot ninja surrounding them and the motorcycle. Digital had never seen them before and she clung to Casey. "Casey, I'm scared."

Casey breathed in and out. "Don't be. I won't let them hurt you." And with that he reved up the motorcycle and ran through the bots.

"What are those?!" Digital asked with panic. Casey didn't answer her question, afraid he'd scare her more. But then it got worse.

A mutant dog. A mutant fish. And a mutant tiger.

"Shit." Casey breathed.

"Are we in trouble?" Digital asked in fear. Casey growled at the mutants.

"Just stay away from their view." Casey instructed. Digital hid her face in Casey's back as Casey stared Tiger Claw in the eye. "Leave my niece alone." He growled dangerously. Tiger Claw smirked and growled at Casey.

"You can make this easy for yourself and just hand us the girl. Or you could die a horrible death while we take the girl." Tiger Claw growled.

"You'll only be taking her over my dead body!" Casey yelled at him.

Tiger Claw smirked. "That can be arranged." And with that Tiger Claw lunged at Casey. Casey blocked the attack and kicked Tiger Claw. The kick didn't give much power, but it was enough to send him back a ways. Casey hopped back on his motorcycle and took off with Digital clinging onto him.

But what Casey failed to see was the small bomb that Tiger Claw had implanted on him. And all too quickly Casey's left shoulder created an explosion and threw the motorcycle off corse. The motorcycle fell and crash. Casey, had forgetting to wear his helmet, was unconscious while Digital struggled to get out from all of the rubble.

Tiger Claw lifted her up by the collar and Digital desperately tried to kick him. "Let me go!" She yelled at him. Tiger Claw lifted her to his back and began to run, Digital completely defenseless. "Casey! Casey help me! Help! Let me go! Let me go!"

And Tiger Claw disappeared with Digital into the darkness.

Sorry if this sucked. I thought it was pretty good in the beginning though. Did you like it, love it, hate it? Let me know. Your opinion matters. :)
