Ch 12 Attack

The next day Kenshen was up early and was in the dojo training. The black masked turtle was punching the punching bag they had hanging followed by some hard kicks. "Damn you Homato Yoshi," Kenshen growled as he punched the bag again and again. "Damn you and your sons to Hell!" Just then Tiger Claw came into the room and growled when he saw Kenshen there. "What's your problem?" Kenshen hissed spinning to face the older mutant.

"You," Tiger Claw growled glaring at Kenshen. "You are my problem freak."

"You know Tiger Claw if I were you I'd watch my mouth," Kenshen said glaring at the tiger. "If my father..."

"Your father," Tiger Claw scoffed. "Please. Master Shredder is no more your father than I am. You are just some pathetic freak he took in for some reason I do not understand. Why he keeps you around is beyond me. You are useless."

"Useless am I?" Kenshen growled reaching down and grabbing his nunchakus. "I'll show you useless." With that the teenage turtle attacked Tiger Claw catching the assassin off guard. Kenshen flung Tiger Claw to the ground hard. Growling Tiger Claw got up and raced toward Kenshen his sword out. But Kenshen easily dodged his attack and jumped out of the tiger's way causing him to stumble. Kenshen then hit Tiger Claw hard with his nunchaku causing him to fall again. Kenshen then grabbed Tiger Claw's sword and held it to Tiger Claw's neck. "Whose useless now Tiger Claw?" Kenshen growled. "Oh that's right. It's you that's the useless one."

"Well done Kenshen," Shredder said suddenly appearing. "I saw the whole thing. You did very well my son."

"Thank you Father," Kenshen said bowing to his master. With that Kenshen turned and was about to continue his training. But he was stopped by the Shredder who said, "I have a job for you Kenshen. Gather Karai and meet me in the throne room in an hour."

"Yes Father," Kenshen said bowing as he left the room in search if his sister.

"Tiger Claw," Shredder said as his second in command stood. "I also have a job for you. I want you to find the human friends of the other turtles and bring them to me. Can you handle that?"

"Yes my Master," Tiger Claw said with a bow. "I will not fail you."

"You had better not," Shredder growled as Tiger Claw left.

An hour later Kenshen and Karai were in the throne room kneeling in front of their father and master. "I want you two to gather the supplies I need to create more mutants," Shredder said.

"Yes Father," the siblings said together.

"You will find the mutagen at the TGRI building," Shredder said. "And be sure to bring the proper animal DNA. I think a wolf and a snake will do nicely."

"Yes Father," the duo said. "We won't fail you Father," Kenshen said.

"Good," Shredder said. "Now go." With that the pair was off on their mission. "Bradford! Xever!" Shredder boomed.

"Yes Master Shredder," Chris Bradford said running into the room followed by Xever. The duo knelt before Shredder awaiting his commands.

"I need you two to create a diversion," Shredder said. "My children are on a mission and I do not want any interference from those turtles. That's why I need you two to rob something for me."

"Like what?" Xever asked in his accented voice.

"Anything," Shredder said. "Just make sure you're noticeable. Got it?"

"Yes Master Shredder," the pair said with a bow as they exited the lair. "Why do we have to be the diversions," Xever grumbled.

"Because it's what Master Shredder wants," Bradford growled narrowing his blue eyes at the darker skinned man. "Now shut up and let's go."

"Don't give me orders Bradford!" Xever growled as the brown breaded man lead the way. The Brazilian let out a frustrated grunt and followed his fellow criminal as they walked to their destination.

Meanwhile Tiger Claw was in search of the turtles' human friends. He knew from what he had seen the other night that the boy was a teenager with dark hair, a skinny build and always wore a hockey mask and the girl was a red headed girl usually dressed in yellow. It didn't take long for Tiger Claw to find them. They were walking down the street talking amongst themselves. Growling Tiger Claw began to sneak towards the unsuspecting teens. "I'm tellin' ya Red we should go track down the Shredder ourselves," the boy was saying.

"Oh sure Casey," the girl said rolling her blue eyes. "We'll just waltz right in there and say 'Oh Shredder would you be so kind as to hand over Karai and Kenshen so we can take them home'. Get real Jones. The Shredder is a trained ninja master and he has who knows how many allies. We wouldn't stand a chance. We are just gonna have to wait for the turtles to call us."

"I know," Casey groaned. "You're right. I just..." But before he could finish his sentence Tiger Claw jumped down in front of the teens surprising them. "What the.." Casey stammered taking a step back.

"Who the heck are you?" April asked her blue eyes wide.

"It matters not who I am," Tiger Claw growled advancing on the pair. "Master Shredder has need of you both. Now come along quietly and no one will get hurt."

"Puh," Casey scoffed rolled his black eyes. "Not a chance there pal. We ain't goin' down without a fight." With that Casey pulled down his mask and charged towards Tiger Claw his honey stick in hand shouting, "Gongala!" But Tiger Claw was prepared for an attack and jumped up surprising Casey. "Where'd he.." he began. But the black haired teen didn't get to finish his thought because Tiger Claw jumped on top of Casey knocking him unconscious. Tiger Claw looked around and saw April was running around the corner. Letting out a laugh Tiger Claw picked up Casey and slung him over his shoulder. "The hunt is on," he growled as he sniffed the air. Within minutes he picked up on April's scent. Growling Tiger Claw lept into action. By now April had gotten out her T-com and was trying to call the turtles. "Come on pick up," April muttered as she ran. After a few rings Raph answered. "Raph it's April!" the red head whispered.

"April what's wrong?" Raph asked alarmed at his friend's tone.

"Some weird giant tiger is chasing me," April said. "He works for the Shredder and he already has Casey! Raph I need your guys' help!"

"Leo and Donnie are already out," Raph informed his friend. "I could call them but that'll take to much time. I'm tracking you and I'm on my way!"

"Hurry Raph," April said as she ducked into an ally and into a dumpster.

"Just stay put!" Raph commanded as he was about to leave the lair. But suddenly Master Splinter was standing in front of the red masked turtle.

"And where are you going Raphael?" the brown coated rat asked. "You are not supposed to leave the lair. You have a concussion."

"April and Casey are in danger!" Raph shouted ignoring the pain in his head and his broken arm. "If I don't help them they're in serious trouble!"

"Then I am going with you," Splinter declared. With that the father and son left in the hopes of helping their friends.

Meanwhile Bradford and Xever had succeeded in creating a diversion. The duo had broken into a local shop that specialized in martial arts weapons. "May as well pick up a few things for ourselves," Bradford said as he picked up a katana.

"Yeah," Xever said picking up a pair of nunchakus. "For once you came up with a good idea Bradford." The brown bearded man smiled at his Brazilian ally as they looted the place. But their victory was short lived when they heard a voice say, "Hold it right there!" The duo turned and saw Leo standing there his katanas in hand. Before either one could react Leo threw his katanas catching both thieves by their shirt collars and pinning them to the wall. Xever had a hard time breaking free because not only had it gone through his shirt but the katana had gone through his shoulder too. "Ah son of a bitch!" he cried out as he tried to break free.

"Pathetic," Bradford muttered as he easily broke free. He looked at Leo and laughed. "I thought there were three of you," he sneered. "Where's your friends freak? To afraid to face me?"

"Hardly," Leo scoffed. "They just had better things to do than waste their time with two losers. Me on the other hand well let's just say I love any excuse to kick some serious ass." With that the blue masked turtles picked up a pair of katanas that were on a nearby table and lunged at Bradford both of them out for blood.

Meanwhile Donnie was investigating a disturbance at the TGRI building. When he got there the purple masked turtle saw that the security system had been disabled and all the guards had been knocked out. Using his stealth Donnie began to look around for any signs of the thieves. He didn't have to look very far because he saw Karai and Kenshen stealing some of the chemicals from a lab. "That looks like mutagen," Donnie thought his brown eyes wide. "But I wonder what's in those others vials. I better follow them. Confronting them without any help would be a really bad idea." Just then he saw Karai and Kenshen leaving and with that Donnie began to follow them making sure to keep a safe distance so they would know he was following them. He just hoped he wasn't making a serious mistake by going alone.
