Before Yuuki could blink, Leonardo had quickly rushed in front of her blocking the door, preventing her from leaving.
Yuuki let out annoyed growl and slammed her foot onto the wooden floor as she stomped it. She raised her hand and prodded the turtle's plastron with her finger. She looked up at him staring directly into his eyes hidden behind his mask.

Yuuki shouted "What if it was you and your brothers!? What if Splinter was evil and he raised you, manipulated you, to steal like that guy is doing to that poor robot?!"

Leonardo quickly answered "This has nothing to do with you!"

Yuuki felt her eyes began to feel wet as tears began to fill the corners of her eyes. They slowly began to fall down her cheeks as she hiccuped and answered "Yes it does! That robot is exactly like me!"

Leonardo's eyes widen in shock along with his brothers. They stared at her in silence. She did have a point. She could've been found by some crazed lunatic, luckily she wasn't. Leonardo shook his head and let out a exasperated sigh. There's no way that she could come with them. She would get hurt. He had to try and talk her out of it.

The blue masked turtle narrowed his eyes looking at her and replied, sternly "You are not going and that's final. "

Yuuki was about to say something until a voice replied "I'd say let her do it."

Leonardo and Yuuki turned their heads to see that it was Raphael.

Leonardo exclaimed, shocked "Raph?! You're not actually considering this?!"

Donatello answered "She kind of does have a point, Leo."

Michelangelo agreed and answered "Yeah, even if it's a crazy one."

Leonardo looked at his brothers with disbelief. He finally gave in. He looked at Yuuki and replied "Fine, you can come. But, if you get hurt. I don't want to hear any complaining about it!"

Yuuki looked at the red masked turtle. She could've sworn that she saw him wink at her. Must have been her imagination.

Raphael shouted "So what are we waiting for?!"

Casey who was banged and bruised up from fighting earlier, was lying on the couch. He quickly sat up "Just let me grab my golf-"

But as he did, he yelled out in pain and grabbed his side "Ah!"

He fell back on the couch and groaned "Ow!"

April reached down and held him down by his shoulders keeping him from getting back up again. She replied "You aren't going anywhere, mister. You wait right here till I get some more bandages."

Raphael smirked and asked "You wouldn't be milking this boo boo thing would ya, Case?"

Casey groaned as he looked up at the red masked turtle "Hey, show a little concern, shell for brains."

Raphael replied "You owe us pal."

Casey answered "Definitely, ow!"

The brothers and Yuuki quickly climbed into the battle shell. Donatello started it up and drove. Leonardo sat in the passenger seat looking out of the window silently sulking.

He replied "I can't believe we're doing this."

Yuuki looked at the blue masked turtle and asked "Why are you so protective of me? You don't even know me."

Leonardo turned his head looking behind him and answered "I made a promise to Splinter."

"Well, we all did, so I thought."

His brothers said nothing but each one could feel eyes on them.

Leonardo was furious. How could his brothers agreed to go along with this? This was a terrible idea! Then her question entered his thoughts: Why was he protective of her?

The light green turtle glanced over and looked at her and his eyes trailed every inch of her. From her long black hair, down to her big dark brown eyes and fair pale skin. He was entranced. She was quite beautiful, for a human. His eyes widen in shock.

(No, Leo! You can't! You both live in different worlds...She's already suffered enough. You would only hurt her more.)

He heard her ask something breaking him out of his thoughts.

Yuuki asked "Is that all? "

He needed to think of something fast.

Leonardo quickly answered her "Yes. What else would there be?"

Yuuki frowned and looked away from him crossing her arms.

Leonardo asked "What? Did I say something wrong?"

Yuuki softly replied "It's nothing."

She couldn't help but feel a little angry and disappointed. Why did she feel like this? She glanced over at the light green turtle, while making sure that he wasn't looking. She had to admit. He was pretty handsome, even if he is a turtle. Her eyes scanned the well toned muscles of his arms, then moving downwards towards his calves of his legs. She couldn't help but feel impressed.

She broke out of her thoughts when she heard Donatello replied "We're almost on top of it. It should be right through there."

Donatello drove the battle shell through the entrance of the dump. Everyone stepped out looking around. There was nothing there. There was no sign of the giant robot and robber. Only piles among piles of garbage and junk.

Raphael looked around scanning the area "Where is that thing?"

Donatello looked down checking the scanner and replied "My locator says it's right here."

Michelangelo answered "I know it's been used before guys. But, I'm getting a bad feeling about this."

Leonardo quickly noticed something and he pushed his brothers and Yuuki behind cover.

Raphael let out an angry growl and he looked up at the light green turtle "What the shell Leo?! What didcha do that for?!"

Leonardo quickly covered the red masked turtle's mouth and pointed silently. Raphael looked at where he was pointing and saw that it was the giant robot talking with the man.

Leonardo replied "Okay let's think of a plan on how we're going to do this."

Michelangelo tapped the his brother' shoulder asking "Um, Leo. Does the plan involve approaching the tall giant robot, directly?"

Leonardo gave his brother a confused look and said "No that would be stupid. Why do you ask, Mikey?"

Michelangelo pointed to where Yuuki was, to find that she was missing. He replied "Yuuki 's gone."

Leonardo quickly shouted "WHAT?! "

He, along with his brothers, peeked up from the cover of piles of garbage to see the one person he was looking for, storming up towards the tall giant robot.

Before he could do anything to stop her, a hand stopped him from getting up. He looked to see that it was Raphael.

The red masked turtle narrowed his eyes at the blue masked turtle and replied "If we go out there now, then all shell will break loose. If she really needs us, we'll be there."

Leonardo let out an exasperated sigh "You better be right about this, Raph."

"Hello there."

The man and the robot both jumped at the sound of a voice

Yuuki focused only on the giant robot and yelled "Wait! I just want to talk."

"I'm Yuuki what's your name?"

The robot looked at her confused by what she had asked. Then It mumbled in a child like voice and answered "Name?"

Strike one...

Yuuki smiled softly and replied "Yeah, what's you're name? This guy that you claim to be your father. Surely, he would've given you one, if he loved you? Any loving parent would."

The man quickly answered, interrupting "Of course I've given it a name. It's kid. "

Yuuki turned her head and frowned at the man and replied "That's not a real name. Who in their right mind would name their child that?"

The man shouted "Who cares! Kid squash her already! She's in league with those aliens! They want to take you away from me!"

Yuuki ignored him and looked up at the giant robot and asked softly "You do know that what you're doing is wrong, don't you? "

The robot turned its head and and asked innocently "Wrong?"

Strike two...

Yuuki answered "Yes, you can't take something that isn't yours. You have to pay for it. If he really is your father. He would've told you that. The values from right and wrong."

The man shouted "The only thing that you're going to do, is pay with your life! Kid, what are you standing there for?! I'm not going to ask again. I order you to destroy her!"

Yuuki looked at the him and replied coldly "Real parents don't use their kids as tools for their means.."

Strike three...

The robot quickly turned his attention back towards the robber. Yuuki took a step back as It nearly stepped on her with its feet as it went straight towards the terrified man. It bend down until the man could see his own scared reflection on the screen. The robot was furious and snapped "You used me!?"

The man was sweating bullets and he backed up. He quickly replied "No! Kid! I took you in off of the streets, remember!? Don't listen to her! She is twisting words around! She trying to make us fight each other!"

Yuuki made a small cough, interrupting, making the robot turn its head and look at her. She answered "I'm just like you. But, luckily, I was found by someone good and not by some crazy lunatic. You can too. You have a choice. You have to choose what you want and who you want to be...NANO."

NANO's eyes widen at what she had said. She had given it a name.

It looked asked softly in a child like voice "Will you be my mommy?"

Yuuki's eyes widen in surprise. Well she wasn't expecting that. She couldn't help but made a small smile.

She softly answered "Yes. If you want me to."

NANO looked back towards the man then grabbed a steel bar and tied him up with it bending it like a pretzel so he couldn't escape from his bindings.

NANO looked back towards Yuuki and asked "Did I did good?"

She smiled and answered softly "You did." She paused for a second then continued " But you really should shrink down before you cause any more property damage. "

As NANO shrunk down, it quickly hid behind Yuuki as it saw the turtles emerge from their hiding spot. Michelangelo quickly fused over arms opened wide and hugged her tightly lifting her slightly off of the ground as he did.

He replied, happily "Hey, you actually did it! My crazy baby sister actually did it! "

As he set her down, Yuuki looked down at the ground in deep thought not saying anything. Donatello noticed and asked "What's wrong?"

Yuuki answered "Yeah, that solves one problem. But, NANO can't stay with me. My parents would freak out."

Michelangelo answered "Maybe it could stay with us."

NANO's eyes widen in fear as it clinged to Yuuki, hiding itself behind her leg from the brothers "No! I don't want to! They hurt me!"

Yuuki replied "Well that answers that question. NANO's terrified of you guys."

Michelangelo asked "What about April?"

Donatello replied "Yeah, She could use an extra hand around the shop. "

NANO looked at Yuuki, unsure "What if she doesn't like me?"

She answered "She will."

As the battle shell pulled into an empty alley. The brothers and Yuuki, holding NANO climbed out. They walked towards the antique shop and Leonardo opened the door. As he did, a plate came flying nearly hitting him. Instead, it smashed against the wall beside his head.

Casey yelled "Take care of me I only got hurt because I was saving you!"

April shouted "Oh! So you think that I need saving, is that it?"

Casey replied "You twist around everything that I say. Bah, Women!"

April yelled out "Of all of the myopic misogynistic-!"

Casey shouted "How can you even talk if you won't speak English!?"

The brothers and Yuuki stared at the fight going on not sure who should step in and break them up. As they were afraid that if they did, they would get involved.

Yuuki answered "NANO's going to be staying here with you. "

Casey and April didn't hear her and they continued to argue.

"Okay we'll be going now!"

Yuuki bent and set NANO down.

She replied "I'll come and visit when I can."

NANO wrapped its arms around Yuuki's neck and she picked it up as it hugged her. Then it looked at the brothers. It stuck it's tongue out at them blowing it at them.
