There were four ninjas standing before them, The original three and one taller one. Upon first glance there were two guys and two girls, but if you looked with a ninja's eye there were three girls and a guy.
All in full body suits and masks, you couldn't tell unless you looked at their body shapes carefully. As trained as they were, Raph doubted his own brothers noticed the physical appearances of their captors. 'Ha, the tall one doesn't even have tits.' Raphael mused to himself. Even laying on his ass he was a bit of a douche.
The newest ninja that hadn't been on patrol spoke up.
"What the fuck are four mutant turtles doing on our goddamn roof at 3:30 a.m.?" Said mutants were all scrambled and laying on the ground. They didn't dare move, and had three blades and a Bo staff pointed to four throats.
Leo spoke up "We followed you, to be honest it looks like you were patrolling the city just like we do." No one budged, and the turtles began to look at each other, all anxious, and unsure how to escape unscathed.
"9 blocks" They couldn't tell which one said that. It sounded like it came from above them.
"What?" Donnie frantically looked around, and Raph sneared and tried to see through the dark room.
"You followed for 9 blocks"
Raphael, feeling less polite now that he'd fallen on his ass, spoke up to fill in the rest of the details. "You may have heard of us, you know, ninja stopping an alien invasion, the lizard men of New York? We're turtles, but those pictures were blurry, so..." The patrol ninja and the one who hadn't been on patrol looked at each other, a quick glance of recognition, as if to check on the other.
Leonardo wacked at him lightly, his quiet brotherly way of saying 'shut up'. Every one of the brothers had their hands poised on their weapons, but didn't dare draw them with this many blades on their throats.
One of the other girls spoke up then, "Ninja Turtles? We heard about you in Jersey City." She shook her head, as if to clear her mind of other thoughts.
The tallest ninja was out of Raph's sight, with his Bo at Mikey's neck. He could hear the guy shuffling, as if uncomfortable and antsy. Inexperienced.
Mikey was flat out on his shell struggling and grunting from his efforts to right himself.
Donny felt like he could shed some light on the situation "Obviously we got off on the wrong foot," He watched as a fan blade got closer to his jugular, gulped but continued.
"We've heard about the New Jersey Ninjas, but figured that people were exaggerating, and I'm sure none of you believed in the Lizard men of New York."
As if by silent command all four of the New Jersey Ninjas pulled their weapons back. The turtles stood up (Leo had to help poor Mikey,) and looked at their captors.
These four had a reputation for moving through the streets and stopping crimes before they were started. They blew holes in drug cartels and they all but stopped a mafia war that the cops couldn't get a handle on it.
They did what the turtles did, but across the Hudson, and apparently with less casualties. Several websites that Donnie had visited had compared the two groups, and decided the government, in secret, created them both.
Donnie had assumed that they were a large group, but here they were, four. Like the turtles.
"Mind if you lose the masks, they're creepy." Raphael said with as much irritation he could muster after the embarrassing fall the four had just taken.
The full masks were intentionally devious looking, they had painted on smiles and were black. The red smiley faces seemed to be a tool used for frightening their opponents and it certainly was unsettling staring at such a creepy looking image.
With quick wrist motions the four removed their masks. A tall and lanky boy, one miniscule girl, one only slightly taller girl and one girl standing at least at 6ft stood before them.
Leo thought this was a half and half situation, and was surprised when the woman was who he had assumed was the muscle.
"Ninja Turtles," Said the smallest of the humans, "Meet the New Jersey Ninjas." She extended a hand out to Leo's "I'm assuming you're the leader." Leo only nodded.
"Yeah, I'm Leo."
