As days went by she watched them. They always came out at night. Quietly she followed them. Studying their movements, learning what route they take to get home, and which manhole they normally come from. Where they like to hang out and play around. Usually she's able to keep them from noticing her, but once in a while she slips up. They seem to not notice, but she sure they know she's there.
Sometimes on boring nights she wonders about the Kraang, like maybe the turtles are right. Maybe I should just leave this city and start a new life. Abandon the Kraang and everything I really know. Only problem is I don't know where I'd even begin. Lately I've been forced sleep on rooftops. Uncomfortable with the noise and people in the city during the day, she made a little nest for herself above one of the apartment buildings. It's near the turtles usual manhole entrance. She always sleeps during the day so when the turtles come out she's awake to follow them. She tried sleeping in alleyways, or on public benches, but the people walking by would criticize her or tell her to get a job. The rude comments and loud traffic sounds were very distracting and woke her frequently. The rooftop makes it slightly quieter, and there's no one around to make the rude comments. At night when she'd watch the man holes she would hope today would be the day. The day she got her chance to take one of them out. One of these days one of them will come out alone, at least I hope.
She looked up at the thin curtain she draped over a pole so the sun wouldn't bother her while she slept. She got up from the small pile of quilts she stole from a thrift store when someone left them outside to be picked up later. She stretch out her arms and legs then walk over to the edge of the building where she would keep an eye on the manhole the turtles come out of. The sun had just started to set when she made her way over to the edge. She sat there for a while thinking about her life. Why am I here? Why am I required to follow the Kraangs demands? They may have created me, but nothing is making me obey them. I did that on my own. I mean do I really care if they complete their goal? And why am I the only female? Why do I have to be the one to-Wait somethings happening.
They're here. She watched the turtles climb out of the manhole. Since she started following them she's learned their names and personalities. The blue one is the leader. He's cunning and bold. Leonardo. The purple one is the smartest, he usually had some kind of gadget on hand and likes to dig through junk yards for parts. Donatello. The orange one is goofy and laid back. Always trying to have fun. Michelangelo. And lastly there's the red one. He seems to always be looking for a fight, sometimes with his own brothers. He's rough, tough, and doesn't hold back. At least he tries not to. I've seen Leonardo stop him from going too far before.
She tried to listen in on their conversation below her. "Alright guys we've gotta figure out where the world wide genome project is."
She quietly followed them to a very large circular building, keeping her distance. She overhears them saying this building looks "Kraangy" and realize this might be the perfect time to strike. The Kraang will be here to help if I need it, right? They enter a room with samples of DNA from different kinds of animals and a large container of mutagen in the middle of the room. Over time she's learned what mutagen is through the turtles talking. They would mention it frequently when talking about the Kraang. It changes people, animals, anything living into some kind of disastrous creature. She's never actually seen it or it's effects though.
She watches them from the shadows as they talk. She notices Raphael sneak away from them and climb one of the supporting beams in the shadows. Her heart races not sure what his intentions are. Is he trying to get a better view? Or is he coming for me? Or it is something entirely different? He disappears from her view for a moment.
"Gotcha!" He yells as he throws and lands on top of a girl. "Betcha think you're pretty slick?" He smirked, but the girl was to quick for him. She twisted his arm and flipped him, pinning him down with her foot.
"I have my moments." She claimed.
He got up and went after her. She blocked and pulled out a knife to fight back. He was kicked back and she went after him, but he managed to block.
"Raph, Karai! Stop it!" Leonardo yelled. They continued there fight despite Leonardo's plea.
"So this is the stuff that turns people into monsters, huh? How's it work?" Karai asked.
"Why don't you lean in a little closer n' i'll show ya." He growled.
She head butted him off the ledge they were on and she jumped after him.
"Enough!" Leonardo yelled blocking them from attacking each other. "You're gunna set off..." Leonardo trips backwards and falls onto a computer. An alarm sounds. "One of those..."
"Nice going Leo! Are you protecting her? What is wrong with you!? She is bad news!"
"No she's not!"
"Yes I am." She says slyly.
The Kraang arrive and surround the five of them. This is it! This is my chance! She jumps out from the shadows and lands beside her Kraang ally. She hopes this girl is on her side and will help take them down. Like maybe the Kraang sent her to kill the turtles too. She smirks realizing that she's finally won. All the waiting will finally pay off. Her allies begin to fire at the turtles. Unfortunately for her the girl, Karai, jumps at one of the Kraang and knocks him down.
"See, she's on our side." Leonardo says hopefully.
The girl called War Machine runs for Leonardo, he seems to be so distracted already making an easy target. She slices at him with her kama but he ducks. She dodges his kick to her stomach by flipping over him and kicking him on the side. Someone attacks her from behind. She grabs the staff headed for her head and use it to fling its wielder around her throwing him against a wall. She goes for Raphael next. She throws a kick at his head and he ducks, she lands behind him and goes for his legs next. He jumps and front rolls away from her, then he turns around and throws shuriken at her. She jumps against the wall next to her propelling her higher than she could normally jump and land in front of him, slicing at him with her kama. He blocks with his sais, until she kicks him in the chest and he slides back ward. That's when the Kraang come in with some back up. They're cornered now.
"We're trapped!" Leonardo yells.
"No you're trapped." The girl says back at him. "What happens if I do this." She states more than asks.
Moving her finger over a button Leonardo yells "Don't do that!"
The Kraang next to her says "Highly undesirable outcome."
Well, that doesn't sound good. I don't think I like this girl. Karai presses the button and the room starts beeping. The DNA samples start draining from their tubes, being mixed with the mutagen. All she can do is watch and prepare for what might happen next.
What comes out is probably the nastiest thing she's ever seen. It has octopus like legs and a giant mouth with snake like fangs and cat ears. It's eyes float from its head only attached by a long slimy cord. The Kraang turn their guns on the beast that came out and she looks for a weak spot to attack. She attacks, but is grabbed by its tentacles and tossed across the room. She's thrown into one of the turtles, but he doesn't quite break her fall. They crash into the wall. Disoriented for a moment she staggers to get up finding something very heavy on top her. The wall was starting to crumble in from the monsters attacks. She pushed a large chunk of wall off of her, but she couldn't free her hand from the pile of rubble. Fires had started from the electric shocks coming from the monsters eyes, and the building was coming down. She pulled at her arm, grabbing it with her other arm. The turtle she had fell into earlier had just started to get up. Panicking, she pulled harder, struggling, even pushing off the wall with her feet. He looked at her in a daze, then shoved a pile of cement off himself.
"Are you stuck?" He laughed at her as he watched her struggle.
"Mind your own business." She hissed at him.
"Fine by me." He blew her off, but just as he turned his back on her, the wall began to crumble. Giant pieces of rock from the ceiling were falling just above where she stood. The red masked turtle quickly moved to her, pulling at her waist, trying to help free her hand. She flinches when the rocks hit them, but she realizes she's ok. The turtle had used his shell to break the fall of the cement, and was holding up the rocks that threatened to crush them. "Hurry it up!" He shouted to her.
She nodded and tugged harder at her hand almost willing to rip it off at this point. "I can't. i-it's stuck." Giving up she dropped to her knees and hung her head in defeat.
Two other turtles had come over to help lift the cement off them. The red masked turtle pulled out his sai, and began stabbing at the wall of crumbled cement trapping her hand.
"Raph, move a little faster, this place is coming down!" Leonardo yelled, struggling to lift the heavy rocks.
"I almost got it." He yelled back. He put his weapon away and took hold of her waist again. This time when he pulled her hand broke free and then fell backward. Now out of the way of the fallen cement, the other turtles dropped it, and rushed over to the two.
Realizing his hands were still on her she pushed herself away from him. Out of breath she stared at him, not sure what to think anymore.
For a moment he stared back at her. "Watch out!" He yelled, trying to warn her of more debris, only her reaction time wasn't quick enough. She was stuck in the head and knocked unconscious.
