The scene starts in a dark, illuminated room, a lightbulb shines on a stand with a blue mask resting upon it. Leo walks in and reaches for his mask, tightly wrapping it around his face as the gang gears up. Donnie skillfully spins his bo-staff with one hand, Leo twirls his twin katanas before sheathing them on his shell, Mikey shows off his nun chuck moves before placing them in his belt, and Raph sharpens his sais before licking one with his tongue looking all cool. And then another figure, Katie steps out of the shadows with a pair of twin kamas before throwing them up in the air and catching them, and placing them in her belt, and with everyone ready, they were off. Up on the surface world, they burst out of a sewer lid and run across the rooftops before jumping down with their eyes showing seriousness.

"Master Splinter has given us a very important mission tonight," Leo says, planting his fists together. "The target is across the street. We must use stealth and cunning to infiltrate the human world and retrieve..."

Leo then pulls out a shopping list, "Go-gurt."

"Ooh, Go-gurt!" Raph said, mimicking Leo.

"Okay, Batman." Mikey comments while Donnie makes gibbering noises with his hands, but Katie only smiles, thinking it is funny.

"Dude what? I'm just trying to hype you guys up, okay?" Leo sighed.

"Leo, I think your Batman voice is cool. It seems you have been working really hard on it." Katie replied. Leo looks at her, flattered by her comment.

"R-Really? Y-You think my Batman voice is cool?" Leo asks a little stuttering.

"Of course, I mean it." Katie smiles.

"Heh, t-thanks Katie." He smiled blushing a little. The others just looked confused at the scene in front of them before Raph rolls his eyes and snatches the list from Leo's hands.

"Sorry to interrupt this moment between you two lovebirds, but I wanna see what we're getting on this list. Alright, four quarts of nonfat milk..."

Donnie and Mikey nodded, Leo broods in the corner where Raph pushed him out of the way/ruined the moment between him and Katie, and Katie just being herself stayed quiet.

"Ice cream..." Raph continues, and Mikey nods in approval since he loved ice cream.

"Fruits and veggies-" Mikey makes a noise of disgust but Raph continues on. "And a party-size bag of Cool Ranch Doritos!" He finishes and hands the list to Donnie before doing a dab in the air.

"I like cheese puffs." Mikey shrugs and complains.

Donnie then looks at the list, "He was very specific about the party size, he underlined it twice."

"Splinter was also pretty certain that we should get the fruits and veggies too." Katie said peeking over his shoulder.

"Bleh, I hate fruits and veggies." Mikey cringes.

"Oh c'mon Mikey, they're not bad. They are very good for you, especially tomatoes."

"The only thing I like tomatoes on is pizza." Mikey smiles which makes Katie giggle at his comment, typical Mikey. But then Leo grabs the list out of Donnie's hand.

"Alright, Donnie, you're on toiletries."

The second youngest rolls his eyes and looks away, "Got it..."

"Raph, your stocking up the pantry," Leo orders which earn him an exasperated groan from Raph. "Mikey, you're on junk food."

"Yes, sirski!" Mikey smiles back.

"And Katie, you're on lookout duty until we're done." Katie's smile turned into a small frown.

"And remember, don't let any human see you...because why?" Everyone knows what was about to happen, Leo's speech he learned from Splinter, the brothers are annoyed while Katie just cringes a little.

"Humans are the demon scum of the earth, avoid them, don't say hi. They lust to murder that which is different with them is to die." Everyone says it Leo says it with joy while the brothers say it annoyed and Katie says it softly. But then Leo turns around, his face turning into a knowing look. "And hey, I know that's abjectly prejudiced...but that's what Dad taught us."

"Eh, I think humans seem kinda cool to be honest. Beyonce..." Mikey turns to his brothers.

"Drake!" Raph starts fangirling, "That guy's the GOAT of all time!"

"Taylor Swift is awesome, her songs are very popular," Katie replies casually.

"Oh yeah, Taylor Swift! She's amazing! Put it there!" Donnie exclaims with a smile as he and Katie high five each other. Leo notices and gets a little jealous, but moves it aside.

"I would love to have a champagne brunch with Tom Brady." Leo joined in.

"Guy Fieri seems like a fun hang, and I've always wanted to go to Flavortown." Mikey said excitedly.

"Look, we all think humans are cool, but we got a job to do. LET'S GO!" Leo says pumped up while his brothers look at him before gesturing making fun of him.

"Let's go! I'm Leo!" Mikey gestures with a non accurate voice.

"You sound like you have bronchitis!" Donnie smirked while crossing his arms. Leo looks a little disappointed and Katie notices before walking over to him.

"Leo, it's okay. Don't be to hard on yourself, I think you are a good leader."

Leo looks at her smiling a little, "Thanks, that's really nice of you to say."

But then all of a sudden, Mikey thought of something and spoke up, "Hey, why did you assign Katie to lookout? She should be helping us get groceries, she is a part of the team."

"Mikey, Dad has only been training her for one week. She isn't ready to sneak into a public place with her stealth skills yet." Leo told his little brother.

"As how much I hate to say it Leo's right. Katie doesn't have enough experience to join us yet." Donnie spoke.

"Well, also, she can be a scaredy cat at times." Raph teases her which causes Katie to pout.

"I am not!" She protested back.

"Oh really, tell me one time you haven't gotten scared of anything at all." Raph asked.

Katie thinks trying to prove she can't get scared easily, meanwhile, Leo glares at his brother making fun of her. "U-Um...no..." She sighed, giving in.

"See, my point is proven." Raph said victoriously while Leo is literally steaming and marched over to him and pushes him.

"Okay Raph, you don't need to rub in your victory. Now let's go get shopping done and over with." Leo said frustratedly.

"Woah, protective Leo in the house. Is there a reason Leo?" Raph smirked which makes Leo a little nervous.

"Yeah, is there a reason? Hmmm?" Donnie smirks smugly while raising his eyebrows. Leo is sweating a little and blushing as he glances at Katie who is confused and blushing a little.

"Uh...l-let's just go!" Leo replied quickly. As they were about to jump off, Mikey looks at Katie.

"Sorry you can't do this with us Katie." Mikey apologized.

"It's okay Mikey, it's not your fault. But they're right, I'm not ready for something like this yet. Just go without me okay? I'll be right here waiting." She replied Mikey smiles sadly at her before jumping off the roof, Leo looks at her sympathetically but Katie just smiles and waves her hand to go with his brothers. Leo looks at her one last time before turning and headed with his brothers. Once they left, Katie sighed and rests her head on the edge of the building, looking out at the city. It has been two weeks since she accidentally stumbled across the brother's home where she met Splinter, and since then she has been staying with them and they treat her like she's apart of the family. Katie's clothes have been changed since her old ones were torn up and now, she wore a maroon sweater with navy blue pants. She also has worn a silver necklace which is the shape of the crescent moon, she has never taken it off or told anyone who gave it to her. Katie then turns her attention to the city as she looked at the buildings in front of her, she smiled sadly since they brought up memories back in her mind and she pushed them aside, waiting for the brothers to get done with shopping.


~24 minutes later~

Katie is still in the same position when she heard four thuds behind her. She turns around to see Leo, Raph, Donnie and Mikey with groceries bags in their hands.

"Oh, hey guys. Did you get all the stuff off the list?" She asked.

"Heck yeah, we did! It was so easy I would wipe it off my shoulders." Raph pretends to wipe dust off his shoulders.

"Alright guys, let's head back home." Leo said. And with that, the gang heads up to the rooftops when they were climbing with a Channel 6 News billboard.

"Terror strikes the heart of Manhattan, yet again today, with another brazen and deadly heist. An industrial grade Power Converter was stolen in a transport," The female news reporter informs the city as a picture of the transport appears on the screen.

"Police hear that this is connected to a recent string of other deadly attacks. New Yorkers live in fear, parents city-wide are calling for a curfew until the criminal is caught. But the only lead is this mysterious mastermind...known on the streets as Superfly." She finishes dramatically as it showed another picture with the name Superfly on it. Katie couldn't help but glance at it for a second before catching up with the brothers.

"Not bad!" Leo held up the groceries in his hand as they kept walking, "Heading home, on a good note! we've got these groceries here-"

"Whoa, whoa, wait," Raph interrupts him, his eyebrow brows furrowed in confusion, "We've only been out for an hour, come on. Let's stay out!"

"Yeah, let's stay out!" Mikey agrees. Leo sighed and grips the grocery bags in his hand tighter, Katie notices and starts to get worried.

"Guys...c'mon, we said we weren't going to do this anymore. Last week it was the Madison Square Garden to watch the Hicks, and the week before that it was the Adele Concert-" Leo explained to what other places they had been too.

Mikey then jumps in front of Leo and raises his arm dramatically, "SHE HITS THEM NOTES LIKE CRAZY!"

"I-It was transcending!" Raph adds, trying to find the right word to describe the concert.

"I would describe it as dreamy and wonderous." Katie said thinking of that memory two weeks ago.

"Yeah, those words! You are really good at describing stuff Kat." Raph replied looking at her.

"Splinter is gonna catch on! We're gonna get grounded..." Leo tried to end the argument, knowing there isn't a point.

"He's a shut-in!" Donnie protests as he rambles about their dad, "He doesn't know how long it takes to do things! For all he knows, it takes us 3 hours to get to the Bodega."

"But Donnie, Splinter is a little smarter than that. I think he might be a little suspicious about what we're doing sooner or later, we can't keep this up forever..." Katie responds quietly.

"See, Katie understands what I'm saying, so no guys. We are not doing this anymore." Leo sighed, but deep down he did want to go.

"Leo maybe-" But Katie gets cut off when Donnie spoke while looking at his phone checking for anything fun to do.

"There's an outdoor movie night in Brooklyn!" Donnie showed his phone to the others and he, Mikey, and Raph sped up.

"Oh-ho, yeahhhh."

"I hope it's a funny one!"

"I hope it's a VIOLENT one!"

They start running off without Leo and Katie, who was right by his side. Leo sighed knowing there's no point in saying no to this before he turns his gaze to Katie. "I guess we're going to go with them." Katie replies, Leo chuckles a little.

"Yep, I guess we are. C'mon, let's catch up with the others." And with that, the duo follows the rest of the group to catch up.


In Brooklyn, the gang was sitting on a rooftop, watching a movie classic called "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" and they were all enjoying it. Leo had to admit it, this was a pretty nice movie to watch even though he was still worried about Splinter catching them.

"I wish I had hair like his," Mikey sighs as he looks at the boy in the movie.

"I wish I had hair PERIOD!" Donnie laughed which causes the whole group to laugh.

"You did go bald at a young age." Mikey comments which makes Donnie snicker. The gang then looks down at the teens that were around the same age as them.

"Wow...so is this like, high school in real life?" Leo asked.

Raph nods at his older brother and speaks as a matter of fact, "Yeah. When you go to high school, you can hijack a parade whenever you want."

"Wow, can you imagine that?" Mikey asked while smiling.

"Yeah, I'm totally not jealous at all." Donnie in with a hint of sarcasm before sighing and leaning down on the roof.

"High school is a pretty cool place, it has its challenges, but there are a lot of fun things to do there." Katie spoke while her head was resting in her arms.

"You really know a lot of stuff about humans don't you Katie." Leo said to her.

"Yeah, it's like your a human master mind! How do you know so much about them?" Mikey asked.

"Oh...I've just...been observing them for a while." She lied.

"Well, your observing gives us more cool stuff about them." Raph spoke as they all laughed before glancing back at the movie. Leo looks down to the ground to see a boy holding his girlfriend close as they watched the movie. Leo frowns and glances back at Katie, who was fixated on the movie. Her ponytail sways a little in the breeze as the screen reflects her teal eyes making them shine, she looked like an angel. To put it simply, Leo has had a crush on Katie since he first laid eyes on her. There has just been something about her that made Katie special, her personality, her beauty, everything, but Leo has been too shy to tell her since he didn't know if she liked him back. Leo kept staring at her lovingly before Katie turns her head around to see Leo staring at her.

"Leo, are you okay?" She asked snapping him out of his trance.

"Huh? Oh yeah...I'm fine..." He said quietly.

"Are you sure? You don't seem fine." Katie was a little worried for him.

"Yeah I'm good. It's alright, you don't need to worry about me." He smiled at her. Katie looks at him worriedly before turning back to the movie. Raph sighs and mumbles, "Maybe one day everyone will love us like they love Ferris Bueller."

"Yeah...yeah, you know...maybe...maybe one day..." Leo spoke sadly before clearing his throat, "Mm-let's go guys."

The others get up and walk slowly as they glance at the movie. They then hop down into the alleyway silently, Leo lifts up the manhole cover and is about to descend into the sewers when they look at the movie one last time. They didn't want to leave...but they had no choice.

"Guys... let's go." Leo climbs down and then Raph, Donnie, and Mikey. Katie is the last one and as she is about to climb down she looks up at the movie one last time, a sad look came over her face before she pulled the cover of the man lid back to it's original spot...


The first chapter is complete, it only took me a day to work on this. I love this movie so much, more chapters will come in the future, stay tuned!
