Chapter 20

One hour later while outside, hiding in the brush of the bush. Bishop and his forces had finally found them. Mystique grew impatient and wondered as she asked curiously. "Why are we waiting until it is dark, bishop?"

"The element of surprise and learn from the last mistake, that shouldn't be attacking head on during daybreak." Bishop replied. Mystique gritted her teeth and desired to seek action but became frustrated as she was ordered to wait until the right moment.

"What is the plan bishop?" she wondered. "You will know soon as it reveals itself. Is that clear soldier?"

"Yes sir, crystal clear."

"For the time being, I want you to video feed of the perimeter."

"It will be done, bishop."

Standing within his van, watching whilst holding both hands clasped tightly behind his back. The soldiers waited, at their posts until new orders waited to be given and video linked the perimeter. Viewing through the cameras of the screen as each, linked.

Lowly chuckled and smirked deviously as he knew, the planned victory is at hand or was it? Then suddenly the sound of crackling voice, transmitted through. "Agent bishop."

"Yes mystique." He answered. "Shall I proceed to phrase two, sir?"

"You may, but I want the girl alive." Bishop instructed. "Yes, sir." She answered, continued then the connection was disconnected. "As you wish, agent bishop."

Finally mystique was pleased and took lead, then surrounded the area. Hiding in the shadows and waited, preparing their weapons to stun.

Meanwhile in the barn, the ceremony commenced. Professor Honeycutt, the celebrant and scientist finished the last rites of holy matrimony then permitted Raphael to kiss his bride. Unveiling Rachael as she opened her eyes and shared the deep loving gaze with her newly wedded husband and smiled, then giggled as he pulled her close then romantically dipped. She tightly draped her arms around his neck and finally, their vows were sealed with a passionate kiss followed by applause.

Nuzzling their noses gently as they happily chuckled then stood, embracing closely they were welcomed as the new and first married couple in the clan. Rachael smiled, hugged her new family then she realised that one was missing.

James was standing in the far back, smiling softly and mouthed softly. "Live happy." Then he disappeared as he walked away. Raphael sensed his wife's discertainty, comforting her close and she kissed him once again, as their lips parted. The newly married parents approached angel and LH, happily took the sleeping children as they were handed to them then left the altar together with their newborn sons cradled in their arms. The larger croc draped his arm around Angel's shoulder as she looked up to him and smiled, warmly. Finally followed the happy family as wolfjade and mikey soon followed shortly afterwards. But, Wolfjade sensed something was not quite right as she was looking around for one that was missing.

"Where did James go?" Wolfjade wondered, holding mikey's hand. April wondered the same and answered. "I don't know. Why would he leave so soon?" Casey scratched his head, then commented. "Could it be that he may had elsewhere to be?"

A long pause silenced the clan. Then Casey said. "What? Did I say something wrong? Did I say something inappropriate?"

"Let's go back inside and begin as the new family." Master splinter suggested then suddenly his ears twitched, looking to the bushes in far distance. "Something wrong, sensei?" Leonardo asked as he also sensed something didn't seem right.

"Not sure, my son. For now, we should enjoy this day as it is a good day and not worry ourselves what may not be important." He assured. Leonardo nodded, agreeing.

"I'll update the security system asap." Donatello insisted and went to do as he said that he would. A few seconds after Wolfjade and mikey, looked to each other and smiled as they slowly stepped back silently when they realised their chance to sneak away. Hand in hand, sneaking away like mischievous children then cringed and finally stopped in their tracks as Casey confronted them and asked them of their intentions. "Where are you two, going?" Casey wondered, catching the pair sneaking away.

Both took a quick deep breath then faced Casey with glances that were childlike, sheepish expressions. "Whatever do you mean?" Mikey replied, sheepishly grinned. April smiled and gave the pair a wink, then grabbed Casey's hand then gave him a glance that he should butt out. Casey sighed, mikey and wolfjade had already vanished.

"Think they will be alright?"

"They'll be fine, come to think of it Casey. You worry like a old man." April joked. Blushing brightly and sheepishly smiled then abruptly stated. "What is that supposed to mean?"

April laughed. "Exactly what it means. You will make a good father one day." She winked and smiled. With a soft embrace and kissed upon her forehead, he exhaled happily. "You too, babe. Uh, I mean you will be a good mom." April laughed again, assured him that she knew what he meant and wasn't holding against him.

Whilst hiding somewhere outside, the newly found lovers were happily laying in the grass enjoying the sky above them. The orange clad terrapin was falling deeply in love with the beautiful wolf, and was happy to be with her. Tightly but gently held her hand within his as he scooted closer to her. Then suddenly, wolfjade sprung up as Mikey tried to make his move then looked to her.

"You ok, mikey?" curiously wondered. Mikey blushed, sheepishly. "I was just thinking how pretty you are." He finally answered. "Oh? Well, I think I better get out of this dress or Rachael will be upset if this dress gets ruined."

Grabbing the back of his head and grimaced, alittle then smiled. "Yeah, she would be mad." Chuckling alittle and blinked as he grew red like a apple and his eyes widen. "What?" wolfjade smiled as she purposely intentionally undressed and stood in her under garments before mikey. Gently placing the dress down, beside them and knelt down close to him as she pulled him closer to her and held his cheeks within hers then said, whispery.

"What are you waiting for?"

Mikey smiled, grew more red and begun to stutter. "J-just you are s-so pretty." Wolfjade giggled, and seductively glanced deeply into his baby blue eyes. Caressing his cheeks loving and tenderly then whispered.

"Make love to me, my mikey."

He nodded, caressed her cheek tenderly and gently laid her down as he hovered over her. Slowly he leaned down, holding himself strongly as he hovered over top and gently kissed her sweet tender lips. Then he calmly lowered his body upon her, and lifted her leg to wrap around his waist. Unaware they were watched from afar through the binoculars of the enemy.

The soldiers mocked and inappropriately commented about the pair, intimacy and this had intrigued mystique although she wasn't interested about what the targets intentions were then hissed at her soldiers to resume with the plan and stop been typical males.

Placing her finger over the earpiece as bishop ordered to procced the last phrase of the plan. Obediently she performed it and glared down as she ordered. "Move out. Bishop wants the girl alive."

"What about the informant?" one asked. "Find him, and kill him. No traitors left alive." She ordered.
