Turning around, Laila had no time to dodge the punch as she flew back, her back cracking when she was slammed into the wall. Eric grabbed his gun and fired shots, but the gun was knocked out of his hand and before their opponent could attack them, Laila jumped on their back, as she hung on with one hand and pulled out a pistol from inside her jacket, shooting her in the head and Laila let go just as she collapsed. Laila grabbed Eric's gun from wherever it was knocked off to and tossed it at him. He grabbed it with ninja-worthy reflexes and put it back into the holster on his belt.
"Well, these nights seem to get more and more interesting, don't they?"
"Yeah, especially with Father."
"What's up with dad this time?" Eric couldn't hide a smile; Laila was the only one who still called him dad or daddy rather than father. Who could blame her? She was a daddy's girl after all.
"He's just been acting strange...more vengeful if you wish to call it that."
"Vengeful?"
"Somehow she convinced him that you were dead." Laila raised an eyebrow. Wasn't her being dead a good thing? Then Laila realized it; Shredder still had his father instincts. It was quiet for a few minutes until Eric sighed.
"Eric?"
"Can't we have a conversation in this damn story w/o explosions?"
