-yesiamweird
The rest of the week went by pretty fast school wise, and since it was only the first week of school she went home with barely any or no homework assignments. With that being said, back at the lair, things were different.
Mikey and May still continued to play video games and joke around, and of course Leo had pretty much taught her everything he knew on how to use her Kusari. They would practice every afternoon even missing dinner sometimes. They could not have picked a better weapon for the newly developed ninja. The scythe portion was lightweight and did not slow her down, and the chain had made very good use at tripping Michelangelo when he wasn't paying attention.
Donny had somehow kept his distance from the blonde as best as he could. The only time he would see her was during practice and for the nights that she went to dinner. Other than that, he kept to himself in his Lab or room, always shutting the door behind him.
And as for Raphael, May hardly even remembered some nights that he lived there. He was only present for training. Other than that he would leave the lair or stay in his room. He missed dinner every night and she was really starting to miss the silent but deadly turtle.
As soon as the Friday afternoon bell rang, May ran out of the school building as fast as she could towards the lair. Leo had promised her a training run with the kusari and Don had promised her by the end of the school week he would finish her boots. She could barely contain her excitement as she ran through the dimly lit sewers. By this point the sewer tunnels could be pitch black and she could find her way back from school to the lair. She had traveled that way so many times.
She punched the code to the base of the lair and squealed as the doors opened.
"Geeze, is there a rat out there or something?" Mikey asked closing his ears from her piercing squeal. His looked to his left at a stern Master Splinter.
"Hehe, no offense sensei!"
"No I'm just so excited for tonight!" She threw her bag on the kitchen table scaring Don in the heat of the moment as he sat in one of the kitchen chairs. She leaned into Donatello's personal space, "Where are my boots Einstein?" She bounced up and down not wanting to wait a moment longer.
Donny hesitantly laughed, "Hold on a second crazy, and I'll get them for you." He sat up and walked off. May danced around twirling her uniform skirt,
"I'm a nnnninjaaaaaaa, oh yea uhhuh I'm a nnnnnninjaaaaaaa a badass nnnnnninjaaaaa!"
She stopped as she noticed a red bandana in the corner of her eye and turned her body in a dramatic way to face the unhappy ninja. Not wanting to confront him at that moment she smiled, "Oh yea I'm a nnnnninjaaaaaaaa!" She danced a little too crazy for Raph and he shook his head and walked pass her. "Crazy…" He grunted.
May nodded her head as she continued to dance. "Oh yeaaaaaa, uh huh, oh yeaaaaaaaa" she twirled again and then stopped once her stomach growled. "Hm. I should probably get some foody in my belly." She said in a baby voice and skipped over to the kitchen. As she opened the fridge door, she could hear footsteps closing in next to her. "Are you hungry too?" She asked the frowning Raph, "I never see you eat dinner anymore. If you want the leftovers from last night then-"
"I'm fine. Just want water." He grunted and snatched a water bottle faster than May could protest.
'Whatever Raphael. Just be that way then…' She watched him walk off to his punching bag. This was the most talking they had since Monday and the silence between them was killing her. Why did he have to be so moody?
"Hey there." A lighthearted voice pushed her back to reality. May smiled and kissed Leo on the cheek. "What's upppppppppppp?" She pretended to be gangster, but being in a school girl uniform didn't exactly help her case too much. Leo just laughed. "You're in a good mood." And he reached in one of the cabinets for a tea packet.
She smiled and hugged his arm, "Can't you tell why! I finally get to be a part of your group! I'm a nnnnnnninjaaaaaaaaaaa!" She laughed along with him and then twirled her skirt dancing to her own beat.
"Yes, I'm aware of this." He placed the tea into his tea pot and sat it on the stovetop.
May danced a bit more while she found some leftover noodles from the other night. She took the glad top off and set the meal in the microwave.
"Ahem, I hope I'm not interrupting." Donny held in his hand two black boots.
"Not at all Don." Leo shook his head while his girl ran to the purple bandana turtle. "Oh my god! These are so cool!" She snatched the boots out of his hands. "Thanks Donny!" She hugged him and then threw off her school shoes and replaced them with the new boots. "Perfect fit! Donny you're the best!" She danced some more.
While Don and Leo laughed at the girl she caught a glance of Raph across the lair. He had stopped punching for a moment and stood there with his head on the bag facing the girl he so longed to have.
"Okay guys. Everyone ready?" Leonardo stood next to Master Splinter as May and his brother's assembled in front of the two. Everyone nodded.
"Then it is agreed. A practice run on the rooftops of the city. You are not to be seen and you all must be back by 12:00 tonight." Splinter called out the rules of the night. That gave the turtles and May four hours to have some fun.
She nodded and twirled the chain portion around the area she stood in. "Got it sensei!" She smiled and let the chain wrap around her hand. After it had securely situated itself around her small pale hand she bowed in respect for her Master. Everyone else did the same.
"Have a good run my sons. And my now as it would seem, daughter." Splinter smiled at the human. "I am honored sensei." She smiled and nodded her head.
"Let's get going."
After an hour and a half of running around the rooftops and allowing May to adjust to the high jumps and leaps that for a normal person cause them to fall to their deaths. Luckily for her, she had done gymnastics in the past and was used to flipping around in the air. Now it was just a matter of making the jumps look fancy while she did them.
The gang stopped and caught up with their breaths. May had such an rush that she didn't want to stop at first, but now her body was thanking her that she did.
"May you seriously look like a superhero! You're so badass!" Mikey patted her on the back. "But you would have looked cooler if you wore your mask the right way!" He stuck his tongue out this time.
May just laughed at him. "Mikey, I don't like anything to go around my eyes, I don't even wear sunglasses!"
"Yea, well…you didn't have to turn it into a hair ribbon…" He muttered. Instead of wasting the idea, she used it instead of a mask as a pretty ribbon holding her blonde hair out of her face in a high ponytail.
She smiled and faced the others, "The masks you all wear was his idea, huh?"
The other three turtles nodded now feeling a bit embarrassed by their uniform while May continued to giggle, "It was a nice thought Mikey, but I'm sorry you had to end up going bald at the age of seventeen." She gave him a noogie.
"Ha! That's where you're wrong, I've always been bald!" Mikey released himself from her grasp.
"Not making your argument any better." She brushed through her long hair and then threw it behind her shoulders.
Just then a woman's scream came from the next alleyway. All five became alert and ran over to look to where the woman's scream came from. She was blocked by a wall and three purple dragons cornered the poor old woman.
"Just hand us your purse and we ain't gonna hurt 'cha!" one of the boys laughed. May suddenly remembered the three characters. They had been the ones that cornered May the night she ran away from the lair after Leo and her had talked. The night Leo confessed he loved her.
Without warning Raph had jumped into the shadows of the fight and to help him from not being seen, Donny had used his staff to break the light bulb shining in the alley. Mikey hopped off the ledge in hopes to help guide the woman out of the dangerous alleyway.
May had stopped Leo before he jumped to help his brothers. "Leo wait!" She held him back.
"What?" He asked very puzzled by her tone.
"The night I ran away, you know, the night it rained and I was attacked by the foot? Those three purple dragons, those exact three punks were the ones that attacked me before the foot did."
Leo looked at her closer, still confused at what she had been trying to tell him.
"Leo…what if they work for the foot? They have purple dragon stuff on, but really they are-" She stopped midsentence as her theory became reality. In the distance she saw the building surrounding them filled with foot soldiers. "Lee..Leooo." She whispered and he nodded confirming he too had seen the soldiers that now surrounded the couple.
"Don't make a move." He whispered back and clutched something from within his belt. "On my mark, hop into the alley and tell the others."
"Leo! What 'bout you!" She whispered back knowing he would be all alone on the rooftop.
"Don't worry. Ready? GO!" He threw a ninja star into the alley to warn his brother's along with his girl to verbally tell his brothers the current situation.
She felt a crunch underneath her boots and realized she had probably stepped on and broke a part of the 'so-called-purple-dragons' bones.
"Guys, on the roof now! We are being attacked by foot!" May yelled out and she heard the three gasps.
The alley continued to be pitch black and for May being a human definitely had its disadvantages, she couldn't see a thing, but apparently the turtle brother's could. She felt two strong hands wrap around her arms.
"You kidden' me?" She felt Raph's face close to hers.
"NO! Go help Leo, I'll be right up! Go now!" She pushed him off and then heard footsteps and the clang of metal rise above her.
'Now how the hell am I gonna get up there?' She wondered to herself still not being able to see. Suddenly she began to feel cold out of the blue.
"Are you scared?" Something whispered in her ear. May struck the air from where the sound came from, but there had been nothing there, either that or she missed the person.
"Remember, you are destined for greatness. It has begun."
May remembered that voice. "Fate!" It was the cloaked man from before when she and the turtles went to visit her families grave.
"Greatness…" Was the last thing she heard and suddenly the cold faded from her body.
All of a sudden she felt woozy. She leaned against the brick wall and took a few breaths. "I gotta…I gotta help…" She tried to get herself to move to help Leo and the others, but her body fought her mind. And then without warning she felt her shirt being picked up by the collar and she was thrown to the ground next to the 'purple dragons' from earlier.
Suddenly her body kicked back into its rhythm and she could feel the wind of the foot soldier behind her. She roundhouse kicked the man throwing him against the opposite wall and then pulled out her Kusari.
"Try your luck big boy." She snarled as she felt him charging towards her. She could hear the metal of her blade against another and almost naturally she fought off the soldier within seconds. She nodded after kicking him in the head confirming he was out cold.
"Now to get back to the fight." She smirked and spun the chain onto the ledge of the building and climbed up back into the moonlight. She quickly noticed her mutant friends fighting off the numerous amounts of foot.
Without a second thought she pulled the chain up to her face and quickly caught the middle of it swinging it around the foot beginning to attack her. All of the soldiers fell at the fate of her sharp scythe blade, "I win." She smirked and ran over to help Donny who had been outnumbered by 20.
"Gottcha Einstein!" She yelled out and threw the chain around a group of six soldiers and squeezed the chain around them as tight as she could knocking the wind out of the men and then bashed all of their faces with her blade. As she let the men go from the chain they began to drop like flies, literally.
She smirked and wrapped the chain around her wrist and hand ready to attack anyone else that dared to face her.
Suddenly she felt someone squeeze her from behind almost as if they were trying to pop her in half. She groaned for a second and thought about a way to escape the person's clutches. She could feel her feet leaving the floor and she quickly and frantically kicked against her attacker, but nothing seemed to be working.
"Let go!" She moaned trying to still sound like a warrior.
"Fine by me!" The overgrown man laughed and then threw her over the back side of the building. May could hear her name being called by Donny but she didn't have enough time to even respond. Without a second thought she threw her scythe back at the building and by dumb luck it happened to catch onto an object. And even more luckily, she had the chain portion wrapped around her wrist still so she hadn't fallen down six flights to her death.
"Now what do I do?" She thought about swinging back and forth to try to get back to the ledge but nicked the idea that could possibly cause her wrist to fall off. Then she decided climbing would be easier.
"You are getting the hang of it." Fate's words caught May off guard and she looked around to see the creepy cloaked man.
But instead she felt a sharp pinch on the right side of her neck. With her left hand, free from holding on, she pulled out a dart from her vein. 'Shit…' she thought for a second and then blacked out.
Told ya! Muahahaha! Reviews!
