"Karai? Karai?!" Leo asked frantically as the screen continued to play static, but there was no indication that she could even hear them. Leo sighed. "Ok, so we know where Donnie is. Now, we just have to find that Kranng base. Then we can find Digital."

"So who do we look for first? Karai said that Digital is in greater need of rescuing, but we have no idea how bad Donnie is. From the looks of it, she hasn't been around Donnie as much as she has Digital." Raph pointede out.

Leo twirrled his katanas as he sheathed them. "We're just going to have to go off of Karai's information. If she says Digital needs it more, then that's where we go. Though, I think we would have gone to her first reguardless. She's a kid." Leo turned to look at Casey and April. "We'll need you two to stay in the Shell Razor, so when we get Digital you can patch her up as best as you can as we go to get Donnie."

April nodded before looking at her husband. "Think you're up for it, Casey?"

Casey's eyes hardened. "Our niece and brother is being held captive. Nothing is stopping me from going."

April nodded and stood from her chair. "We're going to get them back. Both of them. There are no if's or but's about it. We'll get them back."

Leo nodded before turning to his father. "Master Splinter, Shredder wants you to come so he can kill you. Is it really a good idea for you to come?"

Splinter's eyes hardened. "Do not doubt me, Leonardo. My granddaughter and son are at the mercy of Shredder. Shredder is a ruthless man and a coward none the less. I will fight for my family as all of you do."

Leo nodded in respect for his father. "Hai, Sensei." His eyes turned white. "Let's go team." And they ran to the Shell razor.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Donnie panted as the many scars and welts that alined his arms and legs slowly became infected. He mixed several chemicals together and placed a small amout on a slide and put it under a microscope. He moved his head painfully to look through the microscope. He watched as the chemicals fought for stability. In the end the chemicals became unstable.

He sighed in frustration.

He had been at this for a week now. He wasn't so much frustrated about the retromutagen, but he was frustrated about the fact that the more he failed, the more in danger Digital's life was in. He growled at the failed experiment.

Baxter Stockman watched as his lab partner scowled at the failed experiment. "Who is this Digital girl, anyways?"

Donnie growled at his partner. "Why do you want to know?! The last thing I need is another enemy trying to take her!"

Baxter saw the fire in Donnie's eyes. It reminded him of the time his mother had protected him from an invader in his home. The invader who took his mother's life. He had been a ninja. So he never trusted ninjas from that day on. Which is why he tried desperately to get away from Shredder.

"Look, as long as we have to be stuck with each other we might as well talk and pass the time."

Donnie sighed. "Digital is my daughter."

Stockman had to do a double take. "Y-You have a daughter?"

Donnie nodded with sad eyes. "Yeah."

Suddenly, Stockman was interested. "Is she a mutant like yourself?"

Donnie shook his head. "She's a human. I found her eight years ago."

Baxter only became more interested. "How'd you find her?"

Donnie growled under his breath. Not at Baxter, but at Digital's biological parents. "At gun point by her parents. I found her at the junk yard when I was fifteen. She was so skinny. Her parents shot her sixteen year old brother, Cameron." Donnie laughed lightly as a sob threatened to rip through his throat. "She gets frustrated at herself when she can't remember something about her brother. They were ready to shoot her, but something stopped them. And it wasn't out of mercy. Someone...told them to stop, and they did."

Baxter couldn't stop the small smile that spread on his face. "What's she like?"

"Oh, she's extremely smart. She's skilled in ninjitsu, but she's still developing. She's a fast learner." Donnie shakes his head with a proud smile. "She's beautiful and kind. When she was a small child she wasn't the slightest bit afraid of my family. She was actually very open to us. Her and Mikey quickly became best friends. He'd spend every waking moment he could with her."

Baxter smiled lightly. "Sounds like you guys really love her."

Donnie smiled. "Oh, we've never loved anyone more." Then a determined frown lines his face once more.
"And I promised that I'd get her out of here alive, no matter what the cost. Even if I die, Digital will get out of this alive."

Baxter sighed. Donatello was acting exactly as his mother had. "Y'know, I'm not supposed to say anything. Shredder could very easily kill me for saying anything. Your daughter, Digital, she's not here. She's at a Kranng base not too far from here."

Donnie growled with narrowed eyes. "Impossible. We defeated the Kranng a long time ago."

"Yeah, well, they relapsed. Just when you think they're gone, they come back. And that's exactly what they did."

Donnie stood and limped on his bad leg. "I should have known. Shredder has no honor! He'd never keep his word! I'll get her out, one way or another!"

"And how do you plan to do that, genius? You're not getting past Shredder anytime soon without a weapon, and you're injured. Your chances of sneaking out alive is slim to nothing."

"Well, I have to try! I am not leaving my daughter alone in a Kranng base! I shouldn't have come in the first place! I should have saved her! And now she's paying the price! I will find her, and I will take her home!"

"Oh, but you won't be doing that anytime soon." A voice snarled behind him. Donnie whirled around and came face to face with the Shredder.

Donnie could feel the breath of the Shredder graze his face. "I never should have believed a word you said. You have no honor! You heartless bastard! You'd hurt an innocent ten year old girl because of a rivalry!"

Shredder growled as he swiped his guantlet at Donnie, causing a new wound to appear on Donnie's plastron. "This is more than a pathetic rivalry!" Donnie could feel the side of Shredder's guantlet, and before he blacked out, he heard Shredder utter three bone chilling words.

"This is war!"

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

The family stood in the alley of Water Street. Apparently Water Street lead to a dead end alley way.

"Feel the walls. There's gotta be a secret way in." Leo told everyone as his hands wandered the walls of the alley. The other's followed in suit.

Mikey felt the walls and nodded in satisfaction as a brick that he felt pushed in and the wall began to separate.

"Great job, Mikey." Leo said as he unsheathed his katanas, and everyone else did the same with their weapons. The four turtles and mutant rat entered the entrance, and the wall closed behind him. "Keep close, guys." Leo instructed.

Raph looked around the room. It was weird being back in a Kranng base after having defeated them five years ago. "Man, it's crazy being back in one of these bases."

Mikey let out a bitter laugh. "Yeah, no kidding. It's been five years since we assumed that we had wiped out the Kranng entirely, and now we're back."

Leo looked to his brothers. He was about to ask them to be quiet, but he thought it weird to be back as well, in all honesty.

Suddenly, two ninjas, one male, one female, came out into the open. The woman had long black hair in a braid that flowed down to her waist. The man had the most challenging blue eyes they had every seen.
The woman had brown eyes and the man had brown hair.

But the two looked strangely familiar to the family. "Who are you?" Leo challenged as he stood in a battle stance, gripping his katana handle.

The woman glanced at Leo, her mouth covered with a black face cover that covered her up to her nose. "My name is, Leona Harmony."

The man glance at the family as well. "And I am, Jonathan Harmony. You all must be Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Hamato Yoshi."

Leo nodded. "Where is Digital?"

Jonathan growled. "You mean our mistake of a daughter?"

Raph growled back more menacingly. "She's not a mistake, you heartless bastard!"

Jonathan smirked. "Struck a nerve, did I?"

Raph growled. "She's the most intelligent, beautiful, creative, caring, honest, and honorable child in the world, and you two try to kill her?! What the hell is wrong with you?!"

Leona glared at Raphael. "She was a mistake! We had never wanted her or Cameron in the first place!"

"Then why were you two so foolish to have sex unprotected?!" Leo asked in a yell.

Leona growled. "We do not have to explain ourselves to you!"

"Why did you try to kill her?!" Mikey asked in a yell, still confused about Leo's previous sentence.

Jonathan glared at Mikey. "Digital and Cameron were both burdens to us. With them we hadn't enough money to buy beer. When Cameron was fourteen, Digital was born. Cameron had already been taken out of school so we could buy booze with the extra money. It was best just to kill them both. But the Shredder said Digital could be used to our advantage in finding you seven. So we spared her, but we killed Cameron."

Mikey growled. "You freaking psycho paths!"

"Daddy!"

The voice was so high pitched that it could have been mistaken for a small whistle, but sure enough the four heard it. As quick as the voice was heard, Leo took the handle of his katana, as did Raph with his sai,
and brought it down upon the ninjas' heads when the two hadn't been looking.

"On ward team! Digital's straight ahead!" Leo yelled. The group of four ran to the sound, which wasn't far at all, and stared in horror. Donnie and Digital were hanging by clamps on a lab table that was facing upward. Clamps went around both of their wrists and ankles. In the middle of the two was a track and a lever that connected to a machine.

And the machine controlled where a saw blade went.

Either to Donnie.

Or to Digital.

Err, mah, gersh! It's getting intense! Did you like it, love it, hate it? Let me know. Your opinion matters. :)
