      when karai talked, cathal always listened. and he did so earnestly, which was a rare thing. hell, he hardly ever listened to anyone save for his parents. they deserved his respect, and so did this woman who gave him a meaning in life. when she spoke of saki being engulfed in his revenge, cathal said nothing. everyone was well aware of the sickness that caused him to make many horrible decisions. when karai resurrected him, cathal did nothing to stop her.         when she started doing saki’s dirty work, cathal never stopped her. perhaps he should have from the start, then none of this mess would’ve happened. cathal glanced over to his friend, noticing that she was idly brushing her fingers along her scarred hand. the one in which saki had tainted in her dream.         he knew that it still hurt her, though she never showed any indication of it. well, at least not in public. reaching out, cathal took her hand in his, bringing it to his lap. when karai didn’t stop him, the soldier started to unwrap the white binds that hid her story. once free, he gently pushed his thumbs against her palm in a massaging manner. it was the only relief she could get, so it seemed.                “i would seek revenge for you.” it was stated in a matter-of-fact tone. if anything happened to karai, cathal would not hesitate to find revenge. and unlike saki, he believed he could be successful without driving off the deep edge. “i would not f-fail in my quest. not if it mmmeant avenging you.”

       the woman hadn’t even been aware that she was rubbing on her scarred hand. not until cathal took it into his own and started to massage it. the pain that had pricked at her palm now disappeared, allowing karai to relax a little. his words about avenging her caused both pride and sorrow to well in her chest, frown tipping at her lips. though she knew he meant what he said, and that he meant well, she couldn’t bring herself to want him to risk becoming insane just to seek his revenge.          she didn’t want him to become like her grandfather. however, she was in no place to advise him against it, for karai knew that if anything happened to him... she would not hesitate to bring down a whole city to avenge him. funny how relations worked like that... too bad she couldn’t say the same for the majority of others in her life.           karai tilted her head to the side to look at her loyal soldier, many thoughts running through her mind. what would she have done if he hadn’t insisted on coming with her back to japan? his presence was an important factor in her life from the very moment she picked him up from that college campus. the man had something to him that karai knew would be beneficial to her.           she just hadn’t expected for him to become this important. a sigh bubbled, karai’s shoulders sagging in slight defeat. “i hope you will never have to avenge me. walk beside me at your own will and we shall accomplish more than before.”

She hugged the bundle closer to her chest as she walked down the street. Normally one of the male employees of the brothel walked with her when she went on her errands for Madam Erika but everyone had been busy, and they had really needed the supplies. Rinko could feel the eyes leering at her from the men on the street and she quickened her pace. Preoccupied with getting back she hadn’t noticed where she was walking and walked straight into someones back, falling to the ground.

“I’m so sorry! I wasn’t looking where I was going!”

[fiaresu]

     dark hues flitted to the petite figure that was now on the ground, looking quite frantic and apologetic. then the woman took a look around, noting the men that passed by, eyeing the young girl with a hungry look. the kimono that the girl was a familiar one to karai, one which belonged to a brothel, marking the girl as its territory, though not as a resident prostitute. regardless, that fact never stopped the pig men from oogling a young girl in her prime.              karai extended a hand towards the other in an offer to pull her up. though she was looking at the girl, her senses remained on high alert, the feeling of her sheathed katana burning her back. hopefully she wouldn’t have to use it to cut some eyes out. “rest easy, young one. are you on an errand? where is your guard companion?”

        as soon as the man had gotten to his feet, trying to shake off the painful vibrations of the impact with the ground, he found himself in an unsavory position. he had barely managed to dodge the sudden attack coming from his right, clearly startled by it. the foot ninja stumbled back, taking a quick glance around his surroundings. the fall from the portal had been quite nasty, and unfortunately it seems that he had been thrown in the midst of some kind of battle.            cathal reached out, snatching the weapon of the attacker with his left hand whilst bringing the elbow of his right arm down in the middle of the man’s back with force. a rather hefty crack sounded, the man arching before flopping to the ground, releasing the naginata. without hesitation, the foot nin twirled the blade and stabbed it down, allowing it to sink into the man’s body for extra measure.             yanking it out, cathal turned to scan the battlefield in search of the one person who had fallen through the portal with him. amidst the wails of war and bodies being tossed here and there, he spotted her figure. dashing forward, he zig-zagged through the maze of warriors, striking down any that threw themselves at him. by the time he got to karai, blood stained his clothing and skin. setting the naginata down, cathal knelt beside her, gloved hands gripping slender shoulders.                  “lady karai.” he shook her firmly, attempting to wake her up. “lady karai.” at first there was no response, and part of him feared she had suffered a serious injury from the fall. then she stirred, a groan escaping her. cathal was quick to pull her into a sitting position, slinking one of her arms around his shoulders. with one hand nestled against her hip in assistance, he grabbed the naginata and slowly brought both himself and the woman to their feet.                  they needed to escape this battle asap lest they wanted to end up adding to the casualty list. taking another glance around, he decided to head in the direction that a majority of men were charging from. if they were lucky, they would appear as wounded allies trying to get to safety. hopefully none of them had witnessed him killing their own men to get to the woman. “please try to walk, lady karai.”

          everything hurt. but that’s what happens when you fall out of a god damn portal, hitting a few things with your body along the way. her senses were dulled to the warzone that surrounded her, barely registering the physical contact with her right-hand man. she felt herself being lifted somewhere-- oh, to her feet. well that’s a start, right? unable to do much, karai sagged, tilting to the side as cathal tried to get a firmer grip on her. very slowly, sensations other than pain started to return.              she felt the stretch in the arm that was slung around cathal’s shoulders. she heard the soft cries of battle whizzing by. she smelled the familiar tinge of iron that indicated blood was all around her. another groan slipped through bruised lips. her movement halted and with a slightly more clear head, karai tried to look around. her vision was filled with black until she realized that cathal had knelt down before her, ushering her to lean against him so that he could carry her more easily.             without hesitation, the woman leaned forward and allowed her arms to fall over cathal’s shoulders, resting her face against the crook of his neck. his hands slipped under her thighs before he hoisted them back up to his feet. sure enough they moved faster through the battlefield, karai paying no mind to the bloodshed. the rays of the sun suddenly disappeared as the cover of leafy green replaced it, causing karai to note that they were now hurrying through some sort of forest perhaps.            until cathal came to a stop so sudden that they nearly pitched over. karai blinked a few times before moving her head to look at whatever caused her soldier to cease.

         dark hues widened in disbelief as the visage of a familiar yet somehow different-looking mutant stood before them. it was donatello, though he wasn’t short and spindly as she was used to. he was bigger, definitely taller than them. more surreal appearing, and he looked very very pissed off. period clothing wrapped around his body, bo staff gripped tightly in three fingers. karai heard cathal’s breath hitch, uncertain of what to do.            ah yes, they were most certainly in a bit of a bind. something told karai that this donatello was not friendly. well, not that he had ever been friendly towards her back in their own world. but this one... he seemed a bit more dark in nature. she was about to pat cathal to tell him to put her down, but was not given the opportunity. the mutant’s voice rang out, catching her attention.                                                      where do you think you’re going?

     at first he didn’t move despite the woman’s invitation. he had been watching her for quite some time, though he knew she was aware of his presence the moment he showed up. now she was ready for some company. finally, the man pushed himself from the wall he’d been leaning against, going forward until he stood next to the other. with a heavy sigh, cathal resigned himself to sitting, gloved hands clasping together to rest on his lap.            a silence passed between the two as they watched the lights of the city below, the strangers bustling about looking kin to busy ants. they both knew that neither were going to apologize for their argument after the gauntlet. they’d said what their hearts screamed and now there was no point in going back to it. in all the years that cathal had served under karai, he had rarely questioned her choices, aloud or not.            the woman was well aware of his unwavering loyalty to her, and thus she was also aware how serious it was whenever he spoke against her decisions. the incident of handing the nyc branch over was one of the more significant call-outs. still, he wasn’t about to say sorry for letting his feelings get the best of him. karai was an incredibly analytical woman, and she always had a reason for what she did.             neither said anything. not until cathal broke the comfortable silence.       “how long did you know th-that he was going to fail?”

      what an honest question. one that quietly coerced the woman to be honest in her answer. even if she lied, cathal would know. he knew just about every one of her ticks and habits, though she supposed that came with the perks of being her right hand for so long. he genuinely cared for her well-being, which was a lot more than others could say. karai didn’t fancy the term ‘villain’, though she knew that it was a title given to her the moment saki had given his first resurrected order.         villain or not, this soldier was still there. he never spoke to her or treated her as though she were a wanted criminal. he never belittled her, nor did he ever underestimate her. what had she done to deserve such a loyal subject-- no... friend? she was sure that regardless of whatever happened, this genuine fool would be right next to her even if she told him they were to travel through the depths of hell with no chance of return.        dark hues stared down at the specks of people that bustled about the lit streets. her thoughts went this way and that, trying to formulate a response.

         “perhaps i knew from the very beginning.” her words were soft, thoughtful. “grandfather was a man ruled by his revenge. those who seek such things are destined to fail in the very end.” was that a good enough answer? was that what her dearest friend was looking for when he asked his question? she had no better explanation.

            no matter where she went, there was always noise. noise from the city with incomprehensible voices mingling with the sound of vehicles. noise from the worries, doubts, and other indescribable thoughts the woman pondered on. even with the strict meditation she had followed since a young age, there were always times here and there where karai faltered in clearing her mind.              being back in japan since the death of oroku saki put the woman in edge. the new york branch of the foot clan had been handed over, after much deliberation from her, despite it may appearing as though it was a split decision. one which did not bode well with a lot of individuals within the clan. especially not her right-hand man. he had openly questioned her choice, and he wasn’t kind about it either.               an argument ensued though in all honesty, his words caused her to have some second thoughts in regards to her actions. fleeting though, if you may. all these years karai had done what she could to prove herself worthy, and in the end she threw it away. well, she didn’t exactly need the new york branch anyway. she would make due with the japanese branch and work back up from there.               she’d started from scratch once before so doing it again wasn’t an issue. there were many other problems rising ever since she had reestablished the clan‘s power. problems that were proving to be more difficult to maintain than the purple dragons. ah, well it wasn’t like she couldn’t rise above it... if karai was anything, she was steadfast and methodical in everything that she did.               which is why she acknowledged the presence behind her. she knew he was going to show face. despite everything they’d been through together, the trouble he had gotten in her place, the reprimands she gave him, he was always next to her refusing to budge. her most loyal of soldiers and the one she considered her true friend. not like that sham mutant alopex who had abandoned her in the end.

            “sit, if you wish. or keep standing there. whichever you prefer.”

@duzmachines95           sunlight streamed through a sliver of the curtain, shining in the woman’s face. that alone prompted her to pull the covers up and shift to the other side, letting out a satisfied sigh. though the mutant was always quiet with his movements (an incredible feat considering his whole stature as a large turtle), karai was trained to be alert at even the slightest of sounds. this, in turn, made it impossible for her to get an actual legitimate night of rest for her weary body and mind. still, any time donatello came to visit her personally, she managed to get a few hours here and there.            the perks of having a protective mutant as her bedmate, right? dark hues blinked open, shifting to the digital clock on the nightstand. seven thirty... this was generally the time her beloved assistant came to wake her up. “you’re up and ready to go earlier than usual, donatello.” the words came out in a husky purr as the woman pushed herself to sit up, letting the covers pool in her lap. lithe fingers raked along black strands, combing her hair away from her face.            “usually when you visit me, you sleep in until the afternoon.” reaching for the pack of expensive cigarettes on the table, one was plucked from the box before the flame of the lighter heated the tip. because health was of importance, karai rarely allowed herself to indulge in smoking, though with the air around donatello, she figured she might need one for whatever he was about to tell her. his attention had seemed to be on something else the entire night, and now it was irritating what was so important that he couldn’t focus on her??             “can’t stay until cathal gets your suit cleaned properly?”

     dark hues stared down at the bodies that littered the dimly lit alleyway, a gentle sprinkle of rain falling. puffs of air bloomed from her lips due to the cold, a single bead of sweat trickling down her neck. karai’s hair was in a slight disarray, having fallen from the clip that held it up only hours ago. her fingers curled and uncurled, digging her heel into the gut of the man who attacked her. with shredder gone, many gangs were trying to rise up.            but as the new leader of the foot clan, karai wasn’t going to allow that. the new york branch was still under her control, and she was going to run it with honour. “hmm...” the woman brought out two things from her purse, a bottle of liquid, and a packet of matches. these days she was more brutal with her dealings. this case would be no different. “you know, donatello, next time we have a date, try not to pick a place where worthless gang members roam.”         plucking the cap of the bottle out, she dumped the liquid over the human bodies donatello had piled together. they were still alive, and they would be so lucky to remain that way after this incident. once the bottle was empty, she tossed it to the side, then sparked the lighter. “unless you did this on purpose.” karai lit a match, tossing it on the bodies. the pile immediately flamed up, dancing and crackling. then she ripped at the ragged shoulder strap of her dress, tossing that into the fire as well. her new dress was ruined, shame.

“I would never dream of it.” April said, sitting down. “I know better than to expect to be a part of anything.” My stepfather took any ‘honor’ I might have had long ago…. she thought to herself. April did wonder why Karai left in such a hurry. And what did she mean by ‘sooner than you think’? She settled down, looking at the two guards. “So what made you decide to join these guys? Good dental plan?”

[fiaresu]

         most of the time, the soldiers didn’t speak. not even when they were spoken to by karai or squad leaders. yet there were always a couple sprinkled here and there that didn’t mind responding. not all of them were naturally quiet, nor could have silence beaten into them. the shorter of the guards perked up when april spoke, but didn’t move from the spot they stood in. a female voice answered the mutant’s inquiry. “the dental plan is only part of it! you’d be surprised at the health insurance we get in the clan. considering how often we get hurt.”                the other soldier swatted the shorter one over the head, snapping at her to be quiet. there was a shrug of the shoulders, and she continued to talk. “plus, we’re like family yanno. even if we get an arm blown off, or get horribly disfigured, or in your case, turned into a hideous monster, we still love each other! ain’t nothin’ stoppin’ us from supporting one another, especially in dire circumstances.” both gloved hands placed themselves on the shorter soldier’s hips in a matter-of-fact way.          “when others outcast us, the foot clan accepts us. there’s no such thing as petty revenge. it’s fun too, we get to jump around with weapons like ninjas. i mean, we ARE ninjas. then there’s the traveling--” the taller soldier slapped her on the head again and told her to shut up. she rubbed at the sore spot, grumbling slightly. thought it was obvious that the taller one hadn’t hurt her. “you’re in it for revenge, right? lady karai doesn’t like that nonsense. says there’s no honour in it, and it’s a weakness. better watch yerself around her, mutant. don’t wanna end up like master shredder now, right?”

[duzmachines95]

Like it or not.. He was between the wall and Karai’s leg now. She was surprisingly strong yet Donatello did his best in not showing she had won her first assault. He more like, looked down the hallway again.. He might not be Leo but he had ways to taunt and provoke his adversary. 

“Well, I don’t, I’d rather doing something else but you’re in the way.” He quickly bap her leg away then he shoved her off, he threw the first punch and used his Bo staff to shield any Katana movements that’d threat to harm him then he backed away.. 

Second round now.. The smoke was dissipating already. He looked into Karai’s eyes for a moment then he twirled his staff and launched at her, he managed to connect a few hits and kicked her right in the gut. He knows he won’t defeat her that easy.. For Leonardo is always hard. 

But he needed to find a way to create a diversion so he could finally head to the lab and stop those Soldiers before they erase the files, he didn’t have time to waste… He wasn’t here to fight all night.

[fiaresu]

      karai gripped her weapon as she stumbled back, having been shoved off the other. she had faith that her soldier would extract what they needed, so all she had to do was delay the mutant. he was the only one of his brothers who was capable of decoding baxters things. she sure as hell wasn’t going to let him anywhere near it. there was a quiet static in her ear, until a mumble spoke to her. karai tilted her head slightly, gaze shifting back to donatello with an icy glare.                  the smoke had dissolved now, just in time to watch him leap at her. karai blocked a couple of hits easily, before his whirlwind of a stick broke through a couple of times. in the midst of it, she felt a large foot connect with her gut, sending her back with the sheer force. the woman slid to a stop, back hitting the wall. a tinge of pain radiated in her muscles, but nothing more than a tickle. karai corrected herself, then moved in with an attack of her own.           he was large, and he was packed with all sorts of crap taped to his body. that would end up slowing him down as well. just enough for her to dance around. her katana swung out in a semi-deadly swing, which was parried by his bo staff. her body twirled before she landed a kick to one of his thighs. he toppled back a little, enough to give her the opening she needed. the woman lunged at him once more, weapon flying out. he blocked once, she jabbed him in his side, he moved to block another jab.                    flipping the weapon, karai then shoved it forward, nailing the mutant on the side of the face with the butt of her sword with immense force. enough that she was convinced it was going to leave a really nasty bruise later on. as his head snapped back, the woman twirled a second time, only to kick him right in the middle of his plastron once again.

[mrniceturtle-deactivated2016121]

    not a second later and he would’ve been compromised. their swords clashed against each other. leonardo’s own two blades shot out, keeping the woman’s single one from touching him. the red haired lady. leo had been 99.9% sure she’d been left six feet under a mound of snow back at the sacks estate. he’d never really caught a  n a m e though. they hadn’t heard word of shredder in a good two years. maybe she was the replacement? regardless of her position, this chick didn’t seem to be scared of him in the slightest. she meant business, that much was made vividly clear.

    nosiness lead the turtle to the site– good thing he came when he did too! so many foot in one place. leonardo would have to relay all this back to donnie once this outing was over. something obviously demanded all of their attention and for once, it wasn’t solely him. 

    one down, with a sizable amount to go. their silhouettes scrambled around all throughout the garage. it never ceased to make him giddy.

        “ hey, ”

            “ just stopping by, promise i won’t be too long. ”

[fiaresu]

“ima, kare o koroshimasu!”                she practically spat the words out in anger. she did NOT have time to be dealing with the mutant! how long had it been since she last saw this pathetic excuse for a living thing? one-- two years? they had left her to die back at the estate; she had been practically buried beneath the snow, ready to meet death. now, she was here, trying to lead the clan and get shredder back. the mutant and his brothers were pesky enough as it was. managing to have evaded them for so long, only to have him crash their party? well, karai wasn’t going to let him get away without a few scratches. out of the shadows, several foot ninja appeared, throwing themselves and their weapons at the intruder, previously their worst enemy.                    the woman turned to the soldier who was tailing her, motioning with one hand. “wareware ga kita mono o tsukamimasu. sore ga yūsen sa remasu!” the soldier nodded and slipped away, disappearing upon her orders. she allowed the cannon fodder to distract the mutant for a little while longer as she moved back, taking the pad and clearing out all the data that was stored on it. several soldiers flew past her with echoing yells. they weren’t going to be able to hold him back much longer. karai loaded a virus onto the tablet, activating it before tossing it to the side, stomping on it to break the screen.                 just in time to witness leo break free from the hoard of foot ninjas. dark hues narrowed on him, and she placed herself into a defensive stance, gripping her katana. “you are a nuisance to life itself, mutant. leave, if you want your life spared.”

[duzmachines95]

He knows he risked everything, so unlike him.. This was bold, so bold.. Sure he has kissed her before, he has touched her, hold her in his arms but besides that they haven’t gone furthermore. He knew Karai could easily kill him, he has lowered his guard.. 

But she has lowered her guard as well. She returned the kiss with wild abandon.. Donatello’s head was spinning, light, already in the clouds and the taste of her lips, so yearned, so unique… Suddenly he forgot where they were, what mattered now was that he was kissing her again. 

And kissing her like he has never kissed her before.. Then, the moment was over, broken… Shattered like a delicate porcelain vessel for a loud noise made him look up, scared. 

His heart was pounding in his chest, he looked around but nothing.. Only darkness and a bit of mist.. He quickly got up and helped her up then without thinking it twice he wrapped his hand around her wrist and made her run along with him while he tried to find a way where they could spend some time alone before the moment is over, and gets forever lost with so many previous attempts… 

It was now or never.. He was still angry, but he knows he’d be angrier if he lets her leave again.

[fiaresu]

              when he broke the kiss, the woman practically growled in evident disapproval. she wanted to keep kissing him, to go further. even the noise did not disturb her, as her mind was far too gone, clouded over with lust. as she reached out to try and pull him back down, the turtle moved away, standing and pulling her with him. swollen lips from the session parted to question what he was doing, but did not get the chance. his fingers curled around her wrist, and soon karai found herself being pulled after him as he fell into a run.                  the cold air bit at her face as she allowed herself to be lead. now that she was becoming a little more clear-headed, she understood his paranoia. though honestly, she wouldn’t have minded dying right then and there. at least she would have savoured a kiss him him in her last moments. should they run for too long, should he try to seek out a better place, taking his time, the mood will be lost in her. just as their delicate moments have been lost in the past. they never could manage to get to the last base. hell, it was rare they even got to feel each other up.               simple heated and stolen kisses were the majority of their secret interactions. but her body ached for him now; she wanted him more than ever. they kept running, and running, as though they were traitors to their clans, trying to run from their inevitable death. when she couldn’t stand it any more, karai called out to him, tone laced with frustration and need. “donatello. i think we have gone far enough. stop, lest we be too tired to continue where we left off!”

[fiaresu]

@duzmachines95​ @leonardoxleads​

      humid air beaded pearls of sweat on her face as the woman lounged on the bench with a couple of other people. they spoke to each other about the recent crime spikes, mingled with brief reflections of their assignments due some time soon. she didn’t bother to listen, as her thoughts were elsewhere. dark hues stared up at the cloudless blue sky, head tilted back and a popsicle stick hanging from her lips. tonight marked the start of the weekend, and that meant the college campus would be empty in a couple of hours.             in her mind, she worked over the plan which had been constructed to get her inside the school building to get the necessary plans for the next day. suddenly, her vision was filled with the visage of a dark skinned woman peering down at her. “yo, ya got some visitors.” a sly smile cracked the other females lips as karai quirked a brow, forcing her attention to shift back to present time.          she sat up some, tilting her head forward to get a look at whoever it was sage mentioned. before her stood the pride and image of the college: leonardo hamato. biggest athlete in the city with loads of promise and fame, as the many people liked to faun. a look of disinterest fluttered across her features as she noted that a handful of other stereotypical jock-looking figures hovered around leo. even in college, people ere just as clique-y as they were in high school. before she spoke, her female companion piped up.                 “well if it ain’t mistah sunshine~ you’re as bright as a black hole, and twice as dense.” the words slipped from sage in a contained laugh, but the others around the table let out a series of snickers. sage rested her chin against palm as she regarded leo and his lackeys. “hey leo, do ya still love nature, despite hat it did to ya?” another round of unrestrained giggling, and karai could see the people with leo were ready to pounce on them for the blatant disrespect.            leave it to sage to always get others worked up. she opened her mouth to dish out another insult, but was silenced with a pointed glance from karai. the woman pressed her lips into a thin line, but remained silent nonetheless. karai looked back to leo with slight irritation. “what is it you want?”

[fabulousfaereporter-deactivated]

April bowed to the woman in front of her.

“You will have no issues from me, Mistress Karai.” She said smoothly. She had amazing discipline- when she wanted to use it. It came from one of her better families, a duel-military couple who could no longer foster her after the husband had been diagnosed with PTSD- ‘to dangerous’ the court had said- then sent her to a home of a high-ranking gang member. “I was merely suggesting the turtle as Stockman seems to be a fool who is easily swayed by money, fame, or a pretty face.”

“What do you need of me in the mean time?”

[fiaresu]

               karai quirked a brow, until the soldier behind her moved up to whisper something against her ear. dark hues flickered to the two that stood behind april, both turning to attention as she spat her orders. “kono zasshuken o mimasu,” they came up to the fox, one on either side with their weapons at the ready, giving karai understanding nods. then she looked back to april, a growl nearly bubbling. “you will stay right where you are, girl. we will finish up in stockman’s lab, then we will leave.”                            she turned then, as the soldier next to her handed the tablet back. “we do not have much time, but we will be quick.” as the woman made her way back to the entrance of the lab, she stopped for a moment, but didn’t bother to look at april. “do not get a swollen head. you are not part of the foot clan, as you have no honour. you are merely an errand dog. work well, and you will get your petty revenge sooner than you might think.” then she and the single soldier disappeared back into the lab, leaving april with the two guards.

[blueeyedleader-deactivated20170]

Leonardo kept his eyes planted on her until the folder made its way into his hands. He accepted it without any hesitation, having to hold back a snort from Karia’s blatant remark regarding him and his brothers starting a war.  Leo held himself well with authority, un-phased by her and the Foot ninja’s presence, despite them butting heads in the past. “I don’t understand,” the turtle spoke up for the first time, his voice smooth and far too gentle to come from a creature of his size. Leo placed the documents safely under his arm. It was too dark to go through it all now.  “What could I possibly do that would be of any service to you?”

        a sigh bubbled, but the woman remained patient. she couldn’t expect everyone to immediately know what she wanted. one hand moved to rest on her hip, the other rubbing the back of her neck in a brief moment of silence. she had to word this right, otherwise she would start laying the blame again and the turtle wouldn’t care to hear her out. at this thought, the woman resorted to very slow pacing once again, whilst the soldier remained still as a statue.                   “i have had no issues with displaying my authority.” good start, excellent. don’t play the blame game here. “i was the leader of the japanese branch of the foot clan, before i came to assist master shredder. many doubt me, and when you read that file, you will come to a more thorough understanding of the purple dragons.”             karai swiveled suddenly, facing leonardo with furrowed brows and a deep frown. as if the mere mention of the gang brought a great headache upon her. “the foot clan was supposed to create a partnership with them. however, with master shredder gone, they will not listen to me. you will be used more as a force of intimidation, than anything. a form of manipulation. with a creature such as yourself, acting as part of the foot clan, the purple dragons will have no choice but to finally adhere to my commands.”
