Can you please do one were your a hybrid and you get a heat like there reactions to the heat
OMG, I Love This one. Thank you so much for the request! This is so awesome because I have OCs that are hybrids! Hope this turns out okay, here goes.....💋💋😏😏
An Itch that Needs Scratched
Leonardo (Half Human, Half Lioness)
He has encountered many foes and allies
Both human and non-human
When it came to you, it was a new lesson to learn
Not only were you part human, the other part was lioness
He thought you were cosplaying, trying to be funny
Then you changed into the animal before his eyes
This was new to him since he, his brothers, and Master Splinter were considered the only abnormal beings in Manhattan
There will be a trust building faze, then the 2 of you hook up
Months go by of dating him and he notices you becoming distant and withdrawn
When he'd encounter you on the roof, you'd hiss at him and run away
'Did she seriously hiss at me? Somethings up and I'm gonna find out what.'
He will use his instincts in tracking you down, when he finds you, you're curled up beneath the Brooklyn Bridge
He'll keep asking what's wrong, despite you wanting to scratch his scales off
When you tell him, hes shook up
"I'm.....in heat! I didn't want to trouble you with it. Usually I find a mate but tonight is worse than ever!"
He watches you flicker from human to lioness, struggling to maintain yourself while begging him to keep his distance
Leo has always made it a point to help those who are in need, in your case: you needed relief from your torture
As soon as you become human, with the exception of your tail sticking out, he took the chance
"It's alright. I'm here now. Don't run away. Let me take care of you."
Hes understanding, patient, careful
He rubs your belly, soothing you the best he could
He churrs when you wrap your tail around his leg
As soon as your eyes shift, you beg,"Mate with me, Leonardo."
With that, he'll set his blades aside, taking you harder than any species you ever been with
You probably can't have his litter but at least he can ease the cycle
Raphael (Half Human, Half Snow Leopard)
He always thought he was the only abnormal one runnin' this joint
When he met you, everything changed. Literally.
He accepted your animal side as you've accepted his mutant genes
One night, he noticed you were being more clingy than usual
You purred against his neck, mewing at him
He thought your animal side was coming out as it usually does
He pets you, you start to shiver when he traces his hand down to your behind
He caught a scent from you, he huffed
"Babe, you smell good tonight. Sup wit you all of a sudden?" He'll start petting your entire body, drawing out more sounds
You lick his cheek, telling him it's that time of the month for you
At first he thinks it's your period, not really interested in that type of sex
You had to remind him this was not your monthly
"I am part feline. Felines go through heat. Which I am going through right now!" You climb onto his lap, rolling your hips on his crotch
He forgot to breathe for a few seconds as he took in the signs
He wasn't against the idea of banging a hybrid, but he never factored in the heat cycle part
He's not gonna complain about marathon sex either
He picked you up bridal style and took you to his room before your scent reached his brother's nostrils
He tosses you on the bed, eyeing you long and hard
Your scent getting stronger by the second
He'll crawl up on the bed, hovering over you
"Don't think I can knock ya up but I like the idea of tryin! You want this reptile meat, Kitty Kat?" He growls, biting your neck
Your purring got louder,"Oh Yeah! I want you, Raphie Baby!"
He will get rougher with you than hes ever been before
Thankfully both your staminas are equally matched
Donatello (Half Human, Half Sea Turtle)
Finding out you were part reptile was like a dream
And you were aquatic!!!
First meeting him was a little edgy since you were about to be taken away by the Foot for experimentation
You didn't trust him at all, but had no other choice but to stay with him until the heat die down
Took you a while to trust him, but you allowed him to examine you
Eventually it turned into an attraction
With attraction came love
You and him were wandering the sewers when he noticed you acting strange
You were too embarrassed to mention your cycle so you kept quiet
Keep in mind, Donnie is super intelligent and extremely observant
During his examinations, he dug deeper on your hybrid side
A little too deep, you don't have to say anything to him because he knows all the mental and emotion sides to your situation
He been there before
He stops you,"I know what you're going through."
You were speechless and scared
Yet, he'll accept it because he knows how difficult it can be to control your instincts
However, deep down hes a nervous wreck, the thought of intimacy had him jittery
He wants it, but also careful not to mess it up
"I didn't want to say anything. Didn't want to make it awkward." You eked out
"I didn't just accept you." He took you by the hand," I fell in love with you. I want to help you in any way I can. Just tell me what you want."
You could not believe this nerdy hunk was so willing to tame your urges
For a moment you wondered if hes just doing it for research purposes
One thing leads to another, you and him start making out
You made a request to try doing it underwater
Lucky for you, hes always fantasized about underwater sex😏😏🥵
Michelangelo (Half Human, Half Red Panda )
Hes so accepting of your other half that he doesn't even question your origins
He'll enjoy petting your long fluffy tail when you spring it out
Your cute and bouncy nature draws him in, next thing ya'll know, ya dating
You became his sunshine in this brutal world
You and him are so close, that before he heads back to the lair after patrol, you and him pounce around the city
Just because ya'll both wild child's
After a few months, you start showing signs of that time of the month
He'll contact you through phone, hearing the growls through the phone
He questions you, you play it off as if it were nothing
He goes to see you in your apartment one night to find your rolling about the floor, whimpering
"Babe, what's going on? Are you hurt?" He's concerned, your wary
"Just goin' through a thing. Nothin' major." You continue to play it off
He sees right through you, getting closer, only to catch a sweet scent coming from you
His instincts as an animal turn on as he sniffs your neck, the scent getting stronger
It doesn't officially click until he notices your tail curling and your thighs rubbing
"Oh, I see. Somebody needs some sexual healing, huh?"
Your shy, nervous
Hes excited, gentle, and caring
He'll comfort you the whole time, asking you exactly how you like it
He wants you badly but he also thinks of your pleasure first
Ya'll spend the night being intimate in ways he and you never imagined
When he gets a moment to let his brothers know whats going on, his response
"Just takin' care of my girl. Don't wait up!"
He gets back to the lair, his brothers don't say anything, not only about the scent you left on him, but also the furs on his clothes too
Summary: You can hardly explain what happened to you last night when Leonardo dropped you off at home. Did he really say that to you? Beautiful? Inspiring? No dude in the hood says stuff like that to a woman unless he wants what's between her legs. Yet, Leo isn't from the hood. While you're figuring it out, he too is trying to figure it out.
Chapter 5
He was in and out of sleep all night. He went straight back to Aunt Vees place, went to the basement and called it a night. Pondering. Questioning himself on what he said to you.
'The shell was that , Leo?' He thought,'The girl hates me to bits. What made that come out all of a sudden? We have a situation that needs to be addressed. Can't afford to be distracted by some street performer with a mouth and issues I don't have time for. Although, it kinda felt good stumping her. Her smile.....was....'
His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of pool balls cracking together.
"Nice shot. Now it's my turn." Raph grunted, focusing on taking his shot on the pool table.
"Give it up, Raph. I got this in the bag." Mikey sassed, making silly noises to try to distract him.
Donnie was on his hologram screen, sending messages to April on their current location. Giving her the coordinates to their truck and sharing updates on their situation. April was amazed that they encounter a few people in that area that are so accepting.
Especially Aunt Vee.
Leo turns on his mat to see Raph and Mikey doing their thing on the pool table and Donnie going over police scanners though his tablet.
"This place is cozy. Still processing how this lady is so chill about all this. Kinda creeps me out."
Donnie scoffs,"Not only that, shes friend with Commish! What are the odds?"
Leo was content, knowing his allies are back in Manhattan and wouldn't be fair to have them make back and forth trips to check on them. One thing he made sure to make clear to you was that he would end this gang's reign before it starts,"We have 3 places to go to while we're here. The main one is the abandoned building where the truck is parked. What do we do first?" He asked Donnie.
The basement door opens, the turtles pause what they're doing, swiftly finding a spot out of view. The footsteps reach the bottom of the stairs along with the strong aroma of cinnamon and apples.
"Ya'll can come out. It's daytime, ain't nobody comin' down here but me." Aunt Vee makes clear in a firm voice.
"We do hair in the afternoon so the upper level is yours to roam about until then. Just hope you're okay with me babysitting the babies." She announced, letting them know that Splinter is awake and waiting in the kitchen for them.
"Bring em on. I think kids are cute with their curiosities. Their funny faces. The questions." Mikey kept going on and on about kids, Aunt Vee motioned for them to follow her upstairs. Donnie cringed at the questions, meanwhile Raph and Leo wondered the age of these children.
"How old are these kids anyway?"
"They crawlers. They ain't talkin' yet. You good." She repiled.
"Really, ma'am. Your generosity is too much. If theres any way we can repay you...." Now it was Leo's turn to rattle off. She turned around quicker than he was prepared for, gently placing her hand on his cheek. His brothers caught this wondering what kind of cop she was.
"Boy stop with this 'ma'am.' I ain't that old!" She made clear while still being gentle,"The way you can repay me is shewing those punks outta this neighborhood." Leo looks her in the eyes, sensing a familiarity in her demeanor.
'So far, she is the second female who doesn't like to be referred to as 'ma'am.' He watched as she carefully retracted her hand, coaxing them all to take a seat in the kitchen.
"Your basement is so awesome. I can stay there forever. So much room. A pool table. A fully functional bathroom. You got it goin' on, Ms. Vee!" Mikey cheered, drawing a smile from the woman.
"Why thank you. Not sure what your place looked like but while your here, come and go as you please."
'Trust us, lady. Ya don't wanna know where we used to live.' Raph thought, unsure of why hes keeping his thoughts to himself.
She offers them all breakfast as her daughters come to the kitchen. They eyed the turtles hard, not of caution, but of respect.
"It was a little late for introductions last night. What are your names?" Tyreeka asked, leaning against the wall. Now Donnie was starting to get taken aback by the sudden acceptance. Only for a few seconds did he wish they'd just scream at them. It's what they were used to.
"I'm Leonardo. That's Raphael. Hes Michelangelo. This is Donatello. And this is our father Master Splinter." Leo beat Mikey to the punch. Monet smiled.
"It's good to know you all. We'll be going to the stores and making runs for stuff. So if theres anything you need, please let us know. No joke, just holler, okay?" She offered, the turtles nodded. Trudy nodded her approval.
"Keep in mind, just about everything is word of mouth around here. So if something is goin' down, you'll hear about it from the top level during our salon hours. 2 places to collect the most information or juicy gossip, are salons and barbershops." Trudy reminded them, Leo gave a nod.
"Good to know. That's beneficial since we'll be closer to the situation." Raph wasn't really buying this whole 'We're all cool' vibe as he started questioning the ladies.
"How do we know we can trust ya?" Raph blurted out.
Mikey shoved his shoulder,"Dude, quit bein' rude. They offered us free room and board."
Trudy chuckled,"A cautious tough guy." She says,"I like that. I can imagine where you're from, many ain't really allowed to know about you, right?"
"That is correct." Donnie jumped,"You'll have to excuse him. Hes not used to....."
"Being accepted, rather than dissected?" Tyreeka teased, Aunt Vee gave her a look.
'Yup, that ones for sure Mikey's.' Raph thought, cringing at how corny that was.
"Uhm. When you put it that way, yes."
Aunt Vee began,"Don't worry about it. Ya'll's secret is safe with us. Ain't nobody round here gon mess with you. They gotta get through me first!" She warned, Donnie and Mikey gulped. "While you here, I need to lay down some rules."
"Understandable." Splinter spoke.
There was a knock on the door. The turtles stilled themselves as Vivian went to check who it is.
"Hey girl. You're early?"
The turtles and Splinter were around the corner completely out of view from the front door. Hearing the exchange.
'It's her again.'
"Yes, indeed! Also, I just went to the hair store and bought you some more clips and bobby pins. Wanted to help you out since you mentioned before you were running short." She smiled, cupping your cheek.
"Thank you, honey. I appreciate that. Come on in, have some breakfast."
You knew that was a bad idea. Leonardo's compliments kept you up half the night, facing him now had you flustered,"Thanks, Aunt Vee but I don't think...."
She made a 'shut your your mouth' gesture,"Food Pantry ain't til later and so is that fools basketball practice. Stay a while. I insist." The look in her eye said it all as you casually entered and closed the door.
She always made it a point to verbalize how much she dislikes your boyfriend. You really need to start listening to the voices telling you to kick this dude to the curb before he hurts you even more.
Upon entering the kitchen, your eyes met his. Those charming cerebral eyes that you started to get lost in. 'Stop looking at me! If you don't stop........'
"We gotta stop meeting like this, Turtle Dove." Mikey broke the spell with his morning compliment, you giggle.
"Ya'll are probably busy. Tryna figure out this gang stuff." You sounded nervous, Leo caught that.
Aunt Vee entered the kitchen, giving you some bacon and eggs, coaxing you to sit down so she can check your hair. You just wished it wasn't right next to Leonardo. You would've settled with Mikey. Maybe even Donnie.
"I was just about to go over the rules. May as well get comfy." She says, checking your ends and scalp. Trudy, Monet, and Tyreeka sat at the table eating their breakfast, smirking at what's to come. "Rule 1: Stay outta my bedroom! The last door upstairs on the right. I don't wanna catch none of ya'll in it." She declares, pointing at the turtles.
"Simple. Leonardo here is the same way with his personal space." Raph teases, shoving Leo's shoulder. Splinter encouraged her to continue.
"Rule 2 ya'll better not have an issue with: Don't be havin' brawls in this house!" She went over how in the past dudes would come to her place and start fights and chaos in her house, over the most baseless things, resulting in her laying down the law, traumatizing those troublemakers. Further explaining she has enough teens and toddlers rough housing in and out of her house.
"What happened to them?" Mikey eked out.
The girls cleared their throats. All Aunt Vee had to do was stare at him, unmoved. Emotionless. He saw the fire in her eyes. The seriousness of what she may have done. She did not speak, she didn't have to. Then Monet spoke up.
"To this day, we still don't know where those punks are. I'll leave it at that." She finished her breakfast, offering Splinter a cup of warm milk. The turtles truly questioned what this woman is capable of. Even you. She looked both Raph and Leo in the eyes, hard.
"I can tell the 2 of you be havin' tiffs." She pointed out, stunning them,"Theres a difference between rough housing and brawling. And ya''ll are crazy huge with them shells. Scratchin' up my floors and walls. That's a no no! If ya gonna fight, TAKE IT OUTSIDE!" She talked to them like she studied them the entire time. There may be a lot of room to house half a squad, but that don't mean they should treat it like a battlefield.
"Understood." They replied. She smoothed your hair down, fluffing out the braids. You silently giggled to yourself at the image of Leo and his brothers fighting. Leo glanced at you for a second then directed his attention back to Aunt Vee.
'Raph and I don't fight that much.' He was trying to hard to not admire your beauty. It wasn't working.
'This woman talks like she knows us. Kinda ticks me off. Kinda like her attitude a little.'
"Rule 3: Don't lemme catch ya in my fridge! I get enough ankle biters goin' through my fridge, eatin' my food, my snacks, drinkin' my milk, and diggin' in my freezer!" She rambled on that there is a freezer chest and a fridge in the basement they can use and if they need anything, just to ask her or her daughters.
"That shouldn't be a problem since the basement was freshly revamped with the works, to which I applaud the hard work that went into it." Donnie stated.
Her daughters announced they had to run a few errands, promising to come back to do meal preps. Giving the turtles their cell phone numbers in case they need to get in contact with them if they need anything, including information. The turtles thank them, with Mikey and Tyreeka sharing a look.
Aunt Vee squinted her eyes, tapping her toes, getting Mikey's attention,"Bonus Rule....." She puts her hands on her hips,"Since ya'll are grown men with a lifetime supply of energy and 'libido', don't lemme catch none of ya'll gettin' fresh with my girls in my house!"
That rule made your cheeks hot as you felt awkward sitting next to Leonardo. Donnie nearly blow milk out of his nose. Mikey swallowed his cereal upon recalling the last rule, the look in her eyes made him feel like he was being sucked into a world he could never comprehend.
'Sounds like something Raph or Mikey would do.'
'Am I in a house with a crazy lady? A deadly one? Or both?'
'I don't even want to think about how many guys have broken that rule. If the guy even made it pass the threshold.'
"I see the looks on ya faces. I told ya, there were many stories that came into this house." She went on to explain that men around here only want one thing. The one and only thing both male and female can afford to do these days. "It's all fun and games until the girls drop the bomb on ya that shes knocked up! Then shes comin' to my house askin' me to watch the baby while the deadbeat man skipped town. Gettin' another girl pregnant!"
This disgusted the turtles. Coming to the conclusion that Aunt Vee has seen so much crap happening, wondering what else happened within these walls. If they even wanted to know at all. They started to feel embarrassed due to her not holding that rule back from Splinter. This was nothing like Manhattan, the Bronx has more issues than they thought.
'My gosh, I feel the history just being here.'
"I can assure you there won't be any of that. Will there?" Splinter speaks, looking at his sons.
"Absolutely not!"
"Not from me!"
"No, ma'am. I mean, Ms. Vivian." Donnie corrected himself, Aunt Vee nodded.
"Very good." She whispered.
"That's wrong. Dudes around here don't know what accountability means?" Mikey questioned, Vivian sighed.
"HoneyBun, accountability is foreign to the poorly raised and unwise. Those are my most constant cases that come into this house: Mothers struggling to take care of their babies, because men don't wanna step up!"
A babies cry rang out in the hallway, making Splinter's ears twitch and the turtles stiffen.
"Y/N, dear. Can you take that one for me?" She asked politely, you smiled.
"Yes, Aunt Vivian." You stood up, excusing yourself from the table to tend to the baby.
"Ooohh, a baby!!! I wanna meet em!" Mikey announced, following you.
Aunt Vee had a thought as she watched Mikey scurry up the hallway,'That ones gonna lower my blood pressure. He may be my favorite too.'
Vivian faced the turtles and Splinter,"I try to keep it as simple as possible. It's been so crazy around here that some of my customers come around whenever they feel safe. A few of them have guns of their own for protection." She admitted, the turtles sigh,"The rules are set, follow them and we'll be good....." She knocks on her counter.
*Knock Knock Knock*
"Ya feel me knockin', ya'll?"
The turtles nod,"Yes."
"Well lemme in!" She smiles, winking at Master Splinter.
"We'll be keeping an eye out for activity." Leo spoke.
"Thanks again. I'm gonna contact Becca, let her know whats goin' on. Feel free to roam about the house. I have a computer, but it's all jacked up. Viruses galore. Runs slower than my twin brother. It's trash, I need a new one soon." This piqued Donnie's interest.
"May I have a look at it?" He offered, Aunt Vee shrugged.
"Knock yourself out. I lost hope in it." She lead him to her computer room to check on the computer.
Raph and Leo separate to check out the house. Raph coming across a few knick knacks, a few of them were turtles. Nodding his approval when he seen pictures of her in police uniform.
Leonardo wandered the house slowly. Getting to know the woman whose helping them. Mikey came out of a room holding a baby in his arms.
"Sup Leo, this is probably my favorite room in the house! Look at this little princess!" He turns the child to face Leo. Her eyes were open faintly, she giggled.
'She smiled at me! I'm not sure I can handle being in this area.' Shaking himself out the cuteness of this infant human child, he responds."You haven't even been to all the rooms yet, Mikey."
Then you came out of the room with a baby boy in your arms, giddy, full of life. Mikey went back into the small nursery to lay the baby girl back in her crib, making funny faces to make her laugh. Leo was greeted to a small nursery room with 4 cribs, only 2 babies resided in them. To which both you and Mikey were tending to.
"Gotta say, Leonardo. Your brother seems to know kids." You complimented. The baby boy looking at Leonardo with a blank look on his face. Leo finally caved, allowing the child to take his digit. You watched as the baby took his meaty digit, Leo shaking it gently. The boy smiles and laughs, squeezing his finger tight.
"Kids got a grip on him. I respect that. Is this a job for you?" He says as he pats the boy's head.
"You can say that. Aunt Vee pays me under the table to watch the babies. She pays extra for enduring the teen crowd."
"Interesting. You're good with kids, huh?"
You cheeks started heating up again,'I've been around so many, that I picked up on a few things."
Leo's heart warmed at how passionate you are to watch over someone's else kids. Though you didn't have your own, he saw how caring and loving you are as you cuddled the child. Every time he encounters you, something new is revealed about you besides the fiery woman he saved the night of your flash mob performance.
"You have a caring heart, Y/N."
There he goes again with his kind nature and surprisingly deep and alluring voice, that you all of a sudden want to hear more of.
'What is this? Is he laced with some sort of love potion #55 or somethin?' He seriously needs to get the heck away from me right now! Quickly!' You were mentally pushing him away as he was doing to you.
'Shes holding a child, of course I have to say something nice. This woman being around feels like torture. Why does she keep showing up in my head? Her face is even interfering with my meditations!'
It got awkward again as you and him stood there looking at one another, while your holding a baby in your arms. His compliment kept echoing in your head.
"Y/N, I ......" His words are cut short by Aunt Vees squeals coming from the computer room.
The baby boy jolted at the shrieks as you massaged his back as Leo went to check on Aunt Vee. She was just amazed that Donnie fixed her busted up computer. She pats her chest, exhaling.
"If only you knew how much money you just saved me." She says, thanking Donnie.
"It was a nasty virus, but a really good computer. All I had to do is....." He started rambling on about resetting the computer, rebooting, installing a new software so the system ran beter. Aunt Vee just pet his head, understanding he likes computers, welcoming him to use it as much as he needs. She turns and asks you to help prepare lunches for the other kids. Raph turns to Aunt Vee.
"How many kids be comin' through here?" He wondered.
She snickers,"A handful. Kids between toddlers and teens be comin' over here to spend time, get some lunch for school, do they homework. And so on. Some sleep over because being at home is too stressful for them"
You help her prepare a line of different sandwiches, fruit cups, whole fruits, drinks, and some veggies. The kids come in, before or after school, choose their items (because kids are super picky) bag it up and take it for free. Whatever was left over, was stored in the fridge or freezer for next time.
Mikey and Splinter volunteered themselves to help. Aunt Vee wasn't bothered as long as they washed their hands. Donnie was going over the police scanners with Leo and Raph. Leo would get a glimpse of you working the kitchen. You knew your way around like it was your own. You were precise and consider of each meal you prepped. The smile you had on your face had him seeing you in a different light. When you looked back at him, he averted your gaze so not to appear creepy.
Mikey was having too much fun with it as he went through the line like a conveyor belt. After a while, Aunt Vee's daughter returned to see the food is prepped and the turtles getting cozy.
Monet was surprised with the amount of food prepped. Her and her sisters were ready to knock it out of the park only to have it done by you, Splinter, Mikey, and Aunt Vee. Tyreeka walked over to Mikey.
"Wow, Ya'll did all this? Wanna job?" She offered.
"No cash in the world will ever satisfy me as much as those beautiful eyes you have." He complimented, Tyreeka covered her mouth. Monet shook her head, questioning Leonardo.
"How many girls has he said that to?" Leo chuckled.
"Believe it or not, not many. It's not like we have an influx of women wanting to talk to us much less be around us." He responded. Monet gave them a warning.
"Then it's best ya'll stay away during salon hours. If you came up to the shop, you will not survive." The turtles were confused as to what that means.
"Care to explain the meaning. We don't really understand what that has to do with us." Donnie eked out, sounding like the typical nerd.
'He just fixed Aunt Vees raggedy computer and doesn't see the obvious?'
The ladies start giggling. Tyreeka happily answered,"Men around here are tired and boring. Ladies see you, they see a meal. A prize. Don't even matter what you are, they see them biceps, those thighs, all that junk in the trunk...." Aunt Vee hissed at her daughter.
"Too Early!"
Monet finished for her as shes putting the food away,"Shes saying take another look in the mirror and you'll see why women would tear you apart."
"Thanks for the warning. I think we'll keep most of our activities downstairs." Leo finished. Aunt Vee directed her mug at MIkey.
"Don't think I didn't hear what ya said, Smiley! Have you forgotten the rule, Michelangelo?"
Took Mikey as few seconds before it clicked,"Sorry Aunt Vee. Just bein' friendly."
Aunt Vee let it slide for now. Trudy changed the subject.
"The kids will be here any minute to collect they food, I got some deets to share with ya'll. Come to the basement." She suggested, motioning the turtles and Splinter to the basement. The babies started crying again so Monet and Tyreeka went to check on them, while you and Aunt Vee waited for the kids to arrive.
When the door was shut and locked, Trudy started spilling the tea about how people at the supermarket and a few areas of the neighborhood have been whispering about more gang members moving into the city. The locals are worried they may start something at the block party. She went ahead and shared how people are spreading rumors of the gang's leader hiding somewhere.
"Unfortunately we can't go off of rumors." Donnie made clear, she nodded.
"I get it. It's mostly old folks talk, but sometimes those rumors have been confirmed to be true. It gets more weird, maybe something that will be of better interest to all of you."
The turtles listen as she shared how a few nights ago she was walking home when she heard a strange sound up the alleyway. She went to investigate only to be met by an odd looking creature. It was too dim to get a good description, but whatever or whoever it was, it was not human!
"We are familiar with a few non-humans. Can you give us the location of where you last seen this creature?" Donnie asked, Trudy willingly gave the location.
As they talked more about the area and upcoming events, the sound of children chattering and walking around above their heads started to catch their attention. The many questions and the sound of paper bags being grabbed for lunches.
"Very active in the morning, yes?" Splinter asked.
"You have no idea." She responds, a shush sound comes from you as you speak to the kids coming into the house.
"Try to tone it down, okay ya'll? The babies sleeping."
The noise dropped down a few levels as the kids continued to gather their food and leave. Leo felt a sharp sensation in his chest just from hearing your voice. Stronger than what he felt when he heard you reciting that poem at the junkyard.
'Stop! Just stop!' He started willing himself to get you out of his mind, wondering if the stress of being away from home was messing with his mental state.
"When it gets darker, we can begin investigating the area. Who knows, we may find out something about this creature." Donnie further explains that he has to do most of his work from the truck which may require him to be away from the team in order to relay information and locations of the areas in question.
"Yo Leo. Ya fallin' asleep ova there? Thought Mikey was supposed to be the most distracted?" Raph meddled.
Leo dismissed his brothers taunting,"When the sun goes down, we leave."
Things start to settled down above their heads,"Thank, Ms. Trudy. Every bit of details help."
She gently places her hand on his shoulder,"Call me Trudy." She politely says.
You come down the stairs after the lunch rush to inform the them you will be leaving for the food pantry soon. Splinter nodded his approval. Leo had his shell turned towards you, he didn't say a word as you spoke to the others. Mikey found that rude and unusual behavior from his more mature brother.
"Afterwards, I gotta go to my boyfriend's basketball game. Ugh."
Leo didn't react, but his mind did,'Boyfriend.....' Yet, he had no right to react. It wasn't his business. It never was.
You went back upstairs to make your exit. Your footsteps fading with each step.
Trudy just shook her head,"If I see that punk again, Imma rip his face clean off and not be sorry for it!" She hissed.
"Graphic much. Do tell of this 'punk." Mikey's wondered, Leo wishing he'd stop asking so many questions.
"Not really my story to tell, but I will say this...." She says as she makes her way to the stairs,"She deserves better than that!"
She makes her way up the stairs, leaving the turtles. All of them but Splinter already knew of your boyfriend but the way Trudy wanted to harm him, spoke volumes.
"I wanna kill em' now." Raph growled.
"None of our business!" Leo finally spoke,"We didn't come here for drama, we're here because we have a job to do. Nothing more."
His tone of voice was firm, yet Splinter saw passed it, sensing something else. Choosing to address him at a later time.
The whispers at the food pantry increased in volume. You try not to engage in conversation for hopes it will end soon. Theres enough issues going on around here without The Turks coming here making it worse. You occasionally looked out the doors to see the day shifting. Darker and darker.
When your time at the pantry was done, you went straight to your boyfriend's basketball game. One the very few things that keep this area at bay.
You sit in the rafters, watching the players come out. Ready for their big game. Your man swore up and down that hes gonna make it. You didn't wanna say it to his face but hes just not it for the game.
Everyone was hype, referees talking to both teams, cheerleaders shaking their behinds like strippers instead of dancers. The scene was alright but not a form of inspiration you needed.
You saw him, egging the crowd, you waved at him, he didn't wave back. Whatever. The game began. Players going back and forth, exchanging the ball, making passes, trick shots, pushing each other out of bounds. You had a smile on and clapped, but you weren't really clapping for the game. Nor were you clapping for your man. You were just there.
Typical joining the crowd's vibe. Going with the flow.
Your guy takes a shot. He lands it flawlessly. You cheered but it was just a front.
'What am I even doin' here?' You questioned, sitting back down to watch the game. You had a poetry competition to prep for. It was a month away but it was better to prepare ahead rather than taking in this overrated crowd.
You look up at the ceiling windows. An odd figure was looking down at the game. 'The heck is that.....' You pondered, then it was gone. It was either the turtles roaming around doing their jobs. Some hood punks trying to start something. It could be something else.
The game went to halftime. Gave you some time to see him before the game started back up again. You get to his section, hes putting the moves on one of the cheerleaders. Not knowing you were a few feet away as you watched him kiss her like hes known her all his life. When they separate, that's when he finally chose to turn around and noticed you were watching.
He walks towards you,"Hey baby. You here. I'm so glad you came." He kisses your cheek, you wanted to throw up.
"I just came to wish you luck. Didn't plan on staying long." You reminded him. You go to leave only for him to gently grab your wrist.
"Come on, Babe. I got one of those scouts here overlooking the game. I want you to here."
He sounded so ridiculous. He knows hes been caught, he was also confident you would come back. He was never good at hiding his wrongs, now this was the final straw. You gently slithered your wrist from his hand.
"Nah. You don't want me here. In fact, you never wanted me. Nor needed me. You got this in the bag without me. Look sharp, they watchin." That was your final word as you calmly left him. He didn't have time to plead his case. You made sure of that when they announced halftime was over.
By the time the game started, you were already a block away. You just wandered, aimlessly. Trying to figure out why you want people in your life who only want to hurt you.
You pulled out your phone, dialing your father. A few rings later, he answers.
He tells you that hes been called to go back to work. But, it will be at a different site. You weren't sure how to feel about that. He sensed your tone was wavering.
"What's wrong? I know that tone of voice." He asked, you took a deep breath and told him what happened. He was seething through the phone.
"You don't need men like that in your life. You're old enough to know you deserve better. Hes already banned from my house, ban him from your heart." He consoles you. You've heard this before but you kept taking him back because you believed he would change. He went on to say he was such a good boy when he was younger, now all of a sudden the hood along with this fantasy of getting rich and famous strung him out worse than your ex-friend next door.
"I think I'm done. Gettin' fed up with this game." You felt good saying that, you also felt something brewing from within, you looked up the street to see the street light brighten. You hung up the phone. Cars passing by providing a sense of security as you headed home.
A word comes to you. You begin to recite.
Caught the kiss and felt the shift
No more tears, just let you drift.
I know scars, but not the calm
Gentle feels like a false alarm
So I walk- no game, no plea,
Can't spot real, but I know what's not for me!
Your father is waiting for you when you arrive. He didn't say much, he just embraced you, suggesting you get to bed. The idea of a shower was a waste to you. You weren't sad or hurt, you felt.....whatever.
Babysitting, leading a dance crew, volunteering at the food pantry, participating in poetry competitions and events was enough. Being in a relationship with someone you thought you'd grow old with, but keeps cheating on you, should be considered a load of stress taken off your shoulders.
"At least Aunt Vee, the people at the pantry, and the folks at the poetry events treat me better." You mumbled, stripping away your clothes, plopping onto your bed, not caring that you had a dirty body on clean sheets. Eyes glued to the ceiling, the faint breeze roaming your body barely making you shiver.
'Wonder what hes up to?' You caught that thought getting ticked off with yourself that his face is even in your head. Yet, the image of him won't go away.
The turtled scoped the city. Settling on the area Trudy saw the unknown creature.
"Look around, if you find anything, let me know." Leo ordered.
"Yeah, yeah. Like we don't know the drill by now! We ain't lil no more, bro!" Raph lashed.
"Can we focus here, please." Donnie complains, scanning the area. He picks up a few things,"Guys, whatever this is, has claws!" He points to the scratch marks left on the wall.
'What has claws? None of the enemies we faced has claws.'
They keep looking, then Mikey makes a surprising discovery of his own.
"Someone must have been throwing a tantrum because the concrete has seen better days." Leo check what Mikey came across to see a large foot print in the concrete.
"My scanners indicate this is no human. Interesting....." He bends down to collect what appears to be hair near the footprint,"We got some hair here.....it's colored, but it doesn't appear to come from a wig. Another hair sample too. Very rugged. Give me a minute and I'll do a thorough scan." He proceeds to study the hair sample while Raph, Leo, and Mikey wait patiently.
Mikey recalled Leo's demeanor the last time he saw you,"Meant to ask this earlier but forgot, but what's up with you and Ms. Dance Craze?"
Leo rolled his eyes,"What do you mean?"
"I mean why'd ya act that way towards her before she left Aunt Vees?" He questioned,"That was pretty cold, even more than usual."
Hes been trying to get you out of his head so he can focus more on the situation at hand. Mikey bringing you up did not help in the slightest.
"This is not the time or place to be having that discussion." He growled, not wanting to give any more space for the conversation,"Donnie, you done yet or what?"
"Got it. You won't believe who it is?" He says, annoyingly as he pulls up a photo of one of their old foes.
"Great, Pork Rinds is out and in the Bronx!" Raph grunted.
"Bebop!" Leo muttered,"What's he doing in the Bronx?"
"Yeah. And if hes out than that means RockSteady is out too!" Mikey jumped in.
Donnie did a scan of the other hair sample,"There is a possibility that RockSteady is with him too. However, this hair sample isn't RockSteady's or BeBops. It's canine fur."
"We ain't no animal shelter, Donnie. It's just BeBop and RockSteady."
"How do you explain the claw marks?" Donnie questioned,"Neither BeBop or RockSteady have claws."
Screams were heard a few blocks away. They went on the move, running as quickly and silently as they can to reach the source of the sound. They come upon 5 gang members about to jump a dude in the alleyway. The guy begged them to leave him be when one pulls out a gun and points it at his head, demanding he pays up.
Raph pulls out his sai, tossing it directly at the gun, knocking it out of the member's hand. The thugs turned towards the turtles, their masks hiding their faces. What shocked them all the most as they closed in on the thugs, was that they looked like kids. Teenagers.
"Think ya tough shakin' people down like trees? Why don't ya try that with somebody my size!" He challenged, the thugs backed away.
"Great, theres more of em!" One thug spat, giving the dude they held up a chance to run away.
"Yeah, ain't 3 enough?" One blurted out, his colleagues shushing him.
"3?" Leo questioned,"We're familiar with 2 but not 3."
"Tell us about the 3rd." Donnie demanded.
The 4 punks that still had guns whipped them out but were immediately disarmed and given a warning by Mikey.
"I really wouldn't go there if I were you. Tell us what you know and maybe my brother will go easy on you." Mikey pointed at Raph as he retrieved his sai, cracking his knuckles. "Or not."
The punks didn't appear to be afraid nor fazed.
"We ain't tellin' you spit! We the Turks and we runnin' this town now. Best believe the bosses are finna hear bout dis soon. Yinz are so dead."
"Who are your bosses? Tell us!" Leo barked.
The boys refused to cooperate and give any names, getting smart with the turtles telling they're meddling in places that aren't meant to be meddled in. Bragging how The Turks will become more lethal than the Purple Dragons ever were. Telling the turtles to get out of town while they can.
"We ain't goin' nowhere. As for ya bosses, tell em theres a new sheriff in town!" Raph dished it back.
"The police have been informed." Donnie reminds them, the punks start laughing.
"Police ain't gon do nothin! They didn't before, they ain't doin' nothin' now!" The punk spat, adding how they're not saying nothing to the police nor the turtles.
That's when Leo withdrawn some rope and with the help of Donnie, captured the boys, tied them up and placed them within view for the police to collect.
"We have our ways of finding out the truth. So in case the police let you go, tell your bosses that they need to watch their backs!" Leo warned climbing the walls to the top of the building.
"Yeah. Because we'll be comin' for em!" Raph finished, him, Donnie, and Mikey scaling the walls leaving the punks to their punishment.
The question did linger within the minds of the turtles as it was decided they may need to pull an all-nighter.
Summary: Some people don't care too much for one hit wonders. Many of them have been long forgotten. So much so that listeners have forgotten their names. After that roof shakin' performance, things are gonna start getting heavy and serious. On campus and off.
(Yes, it's been a while since the last chapter. I got a good amount of stories and requests lined up. Been a busy pooch😚)
5 months after the performance. 5 months after the fight between Charlie and Leonardo. 5 months of Charlie and Buffy getting close enough to be business partners. The girls with their turtle lovers in human disguises have become Buffy's new entourage.
Due to Kenzi's constantly clearing the campus of corrupt students, practically putting the entire student body and it's faculty in fear, she was forbidden by both Leonardo, Donatello, and Chief Vincent to use any of her serums or advanced tech to complete the mission.
Buffy Shellhammer was not only connected to Sachs, she was interested in his use of mutagen. Leo sensed she was holding back something more, Charlie continued to play her cards while the others played along. All the while, Charlie and Leonardo kept it professional, quietly putting their feud on hold.
In the time they've been on that campus, they've since learned to adapt to different things. To keep their personas going, they started their side hustle. Their own personal hair salon out of Mikey and Leo's room for all students. It's proven to be great cover in case Buffy or other students get suspicious.
At first, many students dismissed the hustle due to the guys not knowing anything about black people hair types and styles. After Mikey and Raph did a killer demonstration, the students started warming up, giving them their business. Mikey specialized in haircuts. Raph did dreadlocks, braids, detoxes, and shampooing. While Donnie did the financing. Leo took care of the scheduling side of things. The girls kept switching it up to create good circulation of the hustle but also throw off any suspicions.
However, when it came to being Buffy's new entourage, there were mixed feelings amongst some students. The mission was lengthy enough as it is, all parties wishing it would come to an end.
At the guy's dorm, things were getting pretty interesting and chaotic for a bunch of college dudes. The turtles collecting information.
The boys room was lit. Guys and gals coming in and out, getting different works done. From fades to buzzcuts. Conks to detoxes. Raph was doing some extras for a guy's braids, having conversations about the campus' shift in atmosphere.
"Yo man, you hear about tha upcoming prom?" The student asked, Raph applied some more oil to the guy's section and continued.
"Nah, man. Whats dat about?"
The students in the room explained it was an event put together by Buffy since Spring is here and everyone is already hype. Going on about how she used her families money to pull a few strings and add a few details to the event. Even touching up on how quickly she had to change her entourage, since Kenzi had them either arrested or expelled from campus.
Donnie was sitting in the chair near the door when he heard about the event. Thinking it may be a good opportunity to get more details. But all the turtles were thinking on one particular thing: There first time going to prom with anyone.
'It would be nice to see Dinah dressed up. It's been hectic.'
'The event could prove to be beneficial. For the mission's sake and......with Kenzi.'
'Hot dang. Wonder how dis even works! I'm all for seein' my girl in a skirt but......what Imma wear?'
'This is gonna be awesome. Charlie in a dress and no panties! Just the way I like it!'
The guys start talking about who they're gonna bring to the Prom. Dismissing how random it was for Buffy to stage an event like this in the middle of spring break. The turtles were collecting as much intel as they could. Then Carter enters the room, looks to Raph as he was finishing the student's braids. They share a look, knowing Carter had some info.
The student pays Raph $50 for the works and leaves. Carter takes his seat at Mikey's station and start whispering.
"I'm sure you heard about prom night." Raph nods.
"Yeah. What ya got for us Carter?" He looks over Carter's locs and start conversing on what Buffy was doing.
"Shes planning on bringing something to prom. Says it's for her crew only. Since your apart of her crew now, ya'll got front row seats! To make it more bizarre, the theme for the Prom: Spring Heat!!!"
They continued to talk and strategize. It will be in 3 days. Carter telling him that Buffy does extravagant stunts to keep people off her trail.
As they talked, drama starts when a female walked in demanding to talk to Raphael.
"Raph! It's either you gay or playin' hard to get because you and I know you want this!" She ranted, drawing attention the guys did not ask for.
In some cases, being popular on college campus comes with cons. One of them: being stalked by a deluded human woman who got the wrong idea about Raph after he helped her during cooking class. Despite letting her down gently, she continued to agressively stalk him. Leaving love notes on his door. Getting his lunch for him. Posting about him on social media. Even constantly sitting beside him in class.
"Seriously!!! How many times do I gotta say it!!?" He lashed, getting more attention from the guys outside the room,"I DO NOT LIKE YOU! AND NO, I DON'T SWING DAT WAY! I GOTTA GIRL!!! AND SHE AIN'T YOU!" It was not registering with her at all. She kept on ranting, making more drama. Meanwhile, Mikey, Donnie, and a few other students were just snickering at the drama like they were in a comedy show.
'I thought Kenzi was dramatic. I owe her an apology too.' Leo thought, trying to think about what exactly Buffy has planned. The drama kept going.
"Somebody told me you and some chick was a thing. But, I haven't seen her or do I believe it. You want me! So stop playin' and admit it!" She was being so absurd, Mikey only made it worse.
"Yeah, Raph. Tell her how ya feel for once." He and his customer started laughing, angering Raph even further. Her saying they could have a great life together, tempted him to rip off his cloaking device and show her exactly why she did not want him.
"Can we tone down the drama please? We have a hustle here, this isn't a reality show!" Donnie lashed, getting irritated with the senseless bickering.
"You can stay outta dis 4 eyes, this ain't got nothin' ta do wit you!" She flipped, Raph snapped.
"You da one comin' in here wit dis crap! Even if I was single, I wouldn't want ya! Dissin' my brother, ya dissin' me too!!!" He lashed. The girl was stunned, unaware that Donnie and Raph were related.
"I ain't know!"
"NOW YA DO!!! GET OUT!!!!" He screamed, making everyone laugh even more,"GET OUTTA MY SHOP!!!!"
"Don't yell at me! What are you, one of the Wayan Brothers or somethin?"
"Chick. Take a hint. He don't want you! Take that noise to the ladies dorm! They would love you!" One of the guys joined in. Mikey getting ideas for the next segment for his radio show on campus.
That's when Charlie and Alopex came into the guy's dorm to check the guys.
Alopex saw and heard the drama from outside. Knowing of this crazy woman and her fixation with Raph. Kenzi begged her numerous times to have her expelled, Alopex declined her pleas, wanting to approach it differently. Besides, Kenzi had too many students sent home. Alopex walked over to Raphael.
"Sup baby? Thought I'd give you some motivation." She pulled him by his neck and kissed him like she was hungry. The guys hooted and hollared at the sexual tension in that room. Raph grabbing and spanking Alopex behind, as she wraps her arms around his neck. He lifts her off the ground, coaxing her foot to raise in a beautiful manner. Leo wishing they took it elsewhere. The crazy woman got testy.
"I don't know where you came from but thats finna be mine chick!" She lashed, acting like what Raph and Alopex have was a fake.
Alopex turned to the woman, locked eyes with her and chuckled,"I don't see ya name on him and he clearly don't want whatever you got! The message has been sent."
"Yeah, ain't nobody here for this drama!" Charlie added.
"Shut up, I'm tryna talk to my man!"
"Don't talk to her like! Just leave! I find it weird my brother is screaming like that right now in front of all these people trying to get through to you! This is my room anyway!!!" Leo jumped in, Charlie didn't say a word.
"I AIN'T YA MAN! YOU CRAZY CHICK! GET OUT ALREADY!!!" Raph's screaming threw Leo and Donnie for a wind.
'The frequency hurts my ears. And Mikey says I scream like a girl???'
'That's what girls sound like when they see a spider. Or have something stuck in their hair.'
The girl stepped to Alopex, like she was gonna fight her. Already there was a crowd outside waiting. This is senseless conflict to Alopex and she knew better than to use her inhuman strength against some lovesick, deluded human girl. If anything, she found the girl's demeanor hilarious, yet unnecessary. Before she could get a word out, the girl took a low blow running off with the mouth.
"You ain't on my level chica. You so ugly, you make blind kids cry!"
The room erupted with oohs and aws. Charlie and Leo actually looked at one another despite their beef and wondered if this girl was actually serious. By now, business was on hold, it was now a roast off in the guys dorm.
Alopex sighed,"Aight, since ya wanna play. I'll humor you!" Donnie, Mikey, and Raph held their breaths,"You so dumb, you stared at a cup of orange juice for 12 hours because it said "Concentrate."
Everyone started laughing, even Leo snickered a little. Carter was just glad he was on break from Buffy. She doesn't even know hes at her 'entourages' barbershop.
The chick dissed it back to Alopex,"You so unlucky, you bought a mood ring and it just kept spinning, confused by your entire existence."
"Seriously? You so desperate for attention, you argued with a Siri that was clearly on mute!" Alopex clapped, Mikey fell over laughing at that.
The crowd was drinking in every word. Leonardo almost wanted his device to run out of power, just to scare everyone out of his room with his turtle form. At this rate, he'd rather hear Charlie's diss song all over again.
'College drama is the worst drama ever!' He thought.
The girls kept going at it, the crowd constantly laughing and clowning, then the girl went and said it,"You so fat, when you sat on an iPhone, it became an iPad!"
While the crowd raved, Raph was getting a bad feeling in his stomach. A feeling hes familiar with.
'She don made her mad now!' He shook his head, annoyed that this drama is unfolding the way it did. Even more annoyed that the girl called Alopex 'fat.'
"Forget dis, Imma lay it on ya now. Ya know what they say, da apple doesn’t fall far from the tree!" She warned. Donnie and Mikey knew what that meant."Yo Mama so dumb, she took a spoon to the Super Bowl!" It came out and the crowd went berserk. Phones were out, people making memes, the barbershop was a battlefield.
"Chick, Yo mama’s so loud, she woke the spirits at a haunted house!"
Alopex wasn't fazed, just annoyed she was in this stupid exchange,"And you call me 'ugly?' Yo mama’s so ugly, her selfies come with a warning label."
The girl started getting flustered,"Wow, yo mama so....."
Alopex cut her off,"I ain’t say I was done! Yo mama so hairy, Bigfoot took out a restraining order!"
Everyone kept laughing and giggling. One dude even ran out because it was getting too much for him to handle. Donnie started to wonder with the amount of attention they're getting, if more students will want their hair done at their shop. That along with the crazy girl's mental and emotional state from the heated verbal exchanges. Alopex wasn't done,"Yo Mama, so ugly she make garbage look clean!"
Even Donnie felt that,'Most of my tech was from the garbage.' He mumbled. Charlie fell into Mikey's lap from laughing so hard.
"Yo Mama so lazy, she has a remote for her remote!" Alopex kept going and so did the laughter. Raph unsurprised with the amount of mouth she has, wanting to fill it with something to calm her down.
"Yo Mama so stupid, she got hit by a parked car!" The girl dished it back.
Crickets. No one laughed nor reacted.
"Chick that's outdated and overused. Next......" a student teased. Giving Alopex enough ammo to finish her off.
"Girl I can do this for days!" Alopex warned, seeing the girl start to tap out.
"I'm cool chick, seriously...."
"No ya ain't!" Charlie stepped in, wanting a little piece of the action,"You're da one comin' in here, harassin' my big brother, dissin' my other brothers, and try to insult my sista! You pay da price!" She had one of her own,"Yo Mama so big, she make the Titanic look like a toy ship!"
"Oohhhhhhhh!"
"Wow, Charlie!" Donnie shook his head.
Leo was already over the back and forth, then Charlie went and said that. 'Can this end soon? Please?'
The fire the chick had was suddenly gone as she was outnumbered by mouths more dangerous than hers. Alopex had her fun and games, wanting to bring it home.
"Imma finish this because this is getting boring for me." She cracked her knuckles, cracked her neck, stepped to the girl with the final blow,"Yo mama so bad at time management, she showed up to her own birth three weeks late with a note from her mom!"
That was it. The room turned into chaos. So much so, one of the teachers walked to the dorm, demanding everyone to stop the drama and go about their business elsewhere. The school continued to echo as everyone was already on social media dissing the defeated girl and wanting to know where Alopex got her mouth.
"Well, that happened." Donnie murmured.
"Yes, it did." Charlie commented.
Raph took Alopex into his chest. She could feel his animalistic churrs rumble through the cloaking device. "Nice mouth. I think I got somethin' to calm it down. Let's go!" He proceeded to yank her out of the room, taking her somewhere to be alone. Carter looked at the others.
"College life. Gotta love it, huh?"
Leo and Donnie rolled their eyes,"Quite."
Mikey was feeling something too as he massaged Charlie's back,"All this drama got me X-Rated right now. Gonna tame this for me, Vixy?" She looked down at his crotch, then back at him. She pulls him by the collar, into the hallway and disappears.
"As you were saying, Carter?" Leo just wanted the vibe out of his room.
Kenzi was wandering the dorm halls when she had to use the restroom.
When she was done doing her business, she heard a familiar voice beyond the stall door.
"I don't care about the extra expenses! Get this event started. I have my new crew and even they don't suspect anything."
It was Buffy talking to someone over the phone. The conversation sounded pretty heated as she was getting testy with the person. Blurting out how her former entourage didn't have enough backbone to be her next subjects to begin with. Kenzi started to wonder.
'What are you planning? What do you want with us anyway?'
Buffy's got more aggravated,"The ooze has been perfected. I'm gonna administer it to my crew at the prom event and it's gonna be awesome." She started to sound like a crazy person, Kenzi's tail sprung out and got frizzy,"I'm sure about this group. Something about them sticks out and I want them all! Prom is in 3 days. For the after party, me and my entourage will become mutants!"
Kenzi covered her mouth as everything started to piece together. Her, Donnie, and Raph recalled the night Buffy tried to poison them. Kenzi did studies on the toxin, only to discover that the ooze was mixed with it. But because of the alcohol, it turned into a deadly poison. This assignment went from bizarre to catastrophic. Buffy ended the call, fluffed her hair, and left the bathroom. Kenzi immediately got on her phone to text Donatello.
Kenzi: Donnie! New Intel!
Donnie walked outside of the room after a saying his 'you're welcomes' to satisfied customers. He gets the notification.
Donnie: Hey, Kenzi-Kat. What do you got?
Kenzi sighed.
Kenzi: Too much for comfort. I just found out Buffy's gonna use that ooze on us and herself. In 3 days, there will be a Prom. Shes gonna stick it to us on Prom Night!
This shocks Donnie.
Donnie: That's insane! She can't do that! Shes messing around with chemicals that could be harmful to herself and us.
Kenzi: Let me take her down! Just one hit and you don't even have to worry about it!
Donnie: No! We agreed to not use any serums on her. We do it right and that's final!
Kenzi growled, her tail fluffing out in agitation, but she knew Donnie was right. Besides shes been sending student packing since she arrived, she had to hold back. She calmed down.
Kenzi: Fine! Remember that poison she spiked our drinks with, but we didn't drink?
Donnie: Yes.
Kenzi: I have reasons to believe that she tried to give it to us in the form of a drink. However, the alcohol turned it toxic, that's why me and the girls picked up the scent before we drank it.
Donnie: She doesn't know what shes doing!
Kenzi: Maybe not. Her science and calculations were off. She could have literally killed us and no one would know.
Donnie: Kenzi, we have to get off campus. Go back to Mahattan. Have our meeting in the sewers. This situation is too much to discuss on campus around other students.
Kenzi: I agree. I'll text the girls and we'll leave in maybe an hour?
Donnie: Yes. I'm actually gonna tutor Raph for his next test coming up. Whatever you have to do before you leave, do it now.
Kenzi: Got it! Watch your back with her, Donnie. She dangerous and crazy.
He didn't respond back when Buffy suddenly pressed her breasts against him. Her hair draped over her shoulder, her eyes focused heavily on him.
"Hey Buffy? Can I help you?" He eked out, putting his phone away. She giggled.
"You can and you will." She said with sass,'I'm sure you heard about Prom?"
He shrugged,"Yes. But what does that have to do with......"
"You're gonna take me! As your date!" She went straight to the point without even letting Donnie get a word out. He swallowed.
"Whatever. I'll send you our colors and information about the Prom. See you there!" She blows him a kiss and walks off, shoving students out of her way.
Donnie was in for it now,"Kenzi will not be pleased with this!" He mutters, angry.
They all finished their tasks and their nookie all around campus, then headed straight to the lair. The turtles have worn their cloaking devices so much, they've grown accustomed to their human forms. A little too accustomed.
The cloaking devices are ripped off and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally. Feels good to have that thing off my neck!" Raph groused, Alopex planting herself beside him.
"I hear ya. The original is always the best." She spoke, rubbing his knees gently.
"We got your message. It has to be serious if you wanted us all here to discuss it. What do you got, Kenzi?" Leo questioned, stroking Dinah's tail after she sprung it out.
Kenzi and Donnie went over all the details of what Buffy was truly planning. Their faces sunk, the drip drops in the lair interrupted by the sounds of gasps and words of shock to what they just discovered.
"This girl is crazy! Like 'My Crazy Ex' Type crazy! Except she ain't my ex!" MIkey shrieked, sickened by the news.
"What does she want to be a mutant for?" Raph wondered, gagging at the fact that he asked at all.
"Control." Alopex answered.
Everyone looked at her with bewilderment.
"Explain." Dinah leaned in.
"Think about it." Alopex began,"She hates the idea of people taking her thunder."
"Yes. We've sensed that since the night we made contact with her." Donnie jumped in, guilt ridden from Buffy's demands.
Alopex continued,"She experiments with something she feels will give her that kick. That drive. That rush to be in control. My guess is she spots out guys she feels she can control or manipulate into becoming mutants."
"And if they step out of line or refuse her advances, she makes them disappear by any means necessary." Charlie finished. "Whether spiking them or administering a disease that makes them incapable of being on campus due to potentially having that secret spread throughout campus by Buffy."
"The punks on this campus thrive on reputation." Raph adds.
"So the student drops out and lives a life of seclusion in order to maintain whatever reputation he has left." Dinah joined in.
The pieces were coming together for all of them. However, they were going to be in a situation where one of them if not all of them had to take the fall in order to bring her operation down inside and out.
"And she wants to do this at Prom?" Mikey questions.
"Hey, students like her will do anything to get what she wants. Even during the most important event of one's life. Aside from weddings." Kenzi spoke. Donnie seized the opportunity.
"About that. I had an encounter with Buffy before we left." He started, catching Kenzi's attention.
"What did she want, Donnie?"
Donnie sighed, just ripping off the bandage,"She said I was going to be her date for the Prom!"
Kenzi's tail twitched, her claws ejected, a growl rattled her entire body she was so heated.
"You said 'No?" She asked.
"Please tell me us you said 'no!" Raph grunted.
"She didn't even give me the opportunity to refuse. She was straight to the point. Said she'd send me details and left." He finished.
Everyone looked at Kenzi. Her face was unreadable but inside she was fuming. Alopex and Leonardo stepped in with an ultimatum.
"This is upsetting, yes. With missions like this, we are forced to do things and put up with stuff we hate." Alopex began.
"Here are your options," Leonardo took the lead, Kenzi's eyes directed at him,"You can lash out, get into a nasty fight with her, and ruin her whole life before we get to the very bottom of this situation. Or, you can suck it up and wait for a better and more appropriate opportunity to take her and her operation down for good."
Kenzi thought about it.
"I hate this too, Love." Donnie joined in,"I want to go with you, not her. But, if we're gonna take her down, it has to be like this. For now." He finished.
After a few moments of swinging her tail and tapping her toes, she finally spoke,"I hate this with a passion. A reminder of why college sucks. Because people like Buffy Shellhammer thinks she can have what she wants and whomever she wants. Don't expect me to like it." She declared, folding her arms, leaning against Donnie's shoulder.
'At least she ain't make a diss song for him.' Raph thought, recalling the song Charlie dished out to Leonardo a few months ago.
"Wait a minute!" Charlie jerks up,"As insane as it sounds, Kenzi should still be Donnie's date!"
Everyone looked at her like she lost a few more marbles. To which she lost a long time ago. "Buffy hates it when people steal her thunder. Rile her up a bit by wearing the exact colors she sends to Donnie. She too has a reputation to maintain. What she gon do, fight you in her most expensive dress?"
"Most likely. She fought a girl because she claimed she stole her hairstyle." Dinah added, cringing at the image.
"Yeah, Don. You'll have 2 dates! One beautiful angel and one demon spawn with fake hair and the personality of all the Kardashians!" Mikey quipped, chuckling at one Kardashian in particular.
"You'll be considered the luckiest turtle! You may even win Prom King!" Alopex commented, college life had made her mellow lately aside from that petty exchange in Leo's room.
"That's the craziest idea I ever heard." Raph blurted out.
"May be crazy enough to work. We gotta do something. Since we are practically her next target, we have to make this count in order to end this." Leo agreed, Charlie looked at him with no expression. She nods.
"You're the one that's close to her. Gather a little more information before the big takedown." Alopex suggested, Charlie nodded her understanding.
"Now the biggest question of all is for you Charlie......"
She turned to him with confusion,"What's that, Mikey?"
He took her by the hand,"Charlie, will you be my date for Prom?"
She smiled hard, nodding her head, constantly saying 'yes.'
The other turtles did the same for their girls. Though Donnie was kinda forced into a date with Buffy, he still wanted to ask Kenzi, to which she happily agreed. She climbed his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"I know you wouldn't do me that way. I trust you, Donatello. We gonna get through this and when this is officially over, I want us all to plan our own personal Prom." She revealed, he embraced her.
"Ditto." He kisses her hard, happy he and her aren't fighting.
Splinter came out of his quarters, summoning Leonardo for a chat. He excuses himself from the group as they all started planning their next steps.
Leo sat on the mat and waited for Splinter to take his seat.
"How are you feeling, my son?" He asked.
"I am content in a way, Sensei. College life is overwhelming.This mission is very lengthy, it has taken a toll on us. This new development could be our last shot."
Splinter can feel the pressure from his son. He eyes him thoroughly.
"How are you and Charlie getting along?"
That was the last thing he wanted to be asked. It has been months since that night she basically dissed him in front of the whole student body. The song was all over campus. Mikey found it so catchy, that during his radio show activity he blared it all over campus! Even now, people are still humming it and singing it.
The girls may have scolded Charlie but it didn't change the truth. The lyrics said it all. His brothers words echoing in his head as he recalled their warnings and comments.
'Told ya this was gonna happen! She ain't just say it to ya face, she said it to everyone's faces!'
'The lyrics spoke a lot of volume of your character. You can be overwhelming. Controlling. In a manner of speaking, she said what's been on all our minds this whole time. She just did it in her own creative way.'
'I didn't want her to take it that far, but at the same time, you kinda had that one coming. You had to have felt what she was feeling in that song. I sure did!'
Leo did feel it. He felt every inch of it. She wasn't just angry, she was hurt. Belittled. He looked at his father.
"We are mutual. It has been professional the whole time." He responded.
"I know of the Alopex, Dinah, and Kenzi's rampage of Ms. Vincent's home. Tell me, Leonardo, do you know the reason for Vern's home being vandalized?"
"Just that Charlie was having a feral moment like her sisters. What does that have to do with anything?" He asks, Splinter brushes his beard.
"Charlie was not just in her 'feral state." He began,"She was defending you."
Leo's eyes widened at what he learned," Why?"
Splinter revealed that Charlie was out on the town looking for a place to vent her urges when she saw Vern talking to Casey in an alley after a party. She was gonna surprise him when Vern started talking trash about Leo's leadership and character. Stating that hes gotten sloppy over the years. What did it for her, is when Vern slammed Leo and Dinah's relationship. Saying she could have done better. Rather than following her sister's to Chief place, she went to Vern's to teach him a lesson.
Leonardo was surprised,'I didn't know all those details. So she stuck up for me. In a very grotesque way, but she.....had my back.'
"From your facial expressions, you had no knowledge of this." Splinter spoke, Leo shook his head.
"No. I did not." His voice low, stunned.
"Though I cannot agree with what she did, I can agree that she loves her older brother. Just as you love your younger sisters." He placed his hand on Leo's shoulder,"Family is not only the blood we share, Leonardo. It is the fire we carry for one another. When the world whispers poison about you, a sibling does not ask permission to fight back. They simply do. Not because they are reckless, but because they love you so completely that your honor becomes their own."
Leo paused, letting the words sink in.
"You have trained with her in combat. You taught her discipline. But, she has taught you something just as important, that loyalty does not always wear a calm face. Sometimes it has claws intended to protect, not destroy."
He kinda chuckled at that since she sort of destroyed Vern's floors. He also recalled their last mission that he strongly felt Charlie could have done better with. Now, he was just glad she and the others were alive to be on their current mission.
"You both will know when the time is right. When you do, you will be whole again." Splinter finishes, retreating to his bonsai trees.
Leo smirked a little for once, smirking,'Thank You, Sensei.' He leaves with a new perspective.
Everyone is talking it up as he sat back in his seat.
"Whatta ya say, Fearless? Ready for Prom?" Raph asked, Leo shrugged.
"Let's go to Prom."
They all cheered as they left the lair, making preparations for the big take down. Leonardo hung back for a moment, calling out to Charlie to speak with her privately before going topside. She didn't react as she followed him to a tunnel.
"What's up?" She asked. He looked her in the eyes.
"You've been doing well during the assignment. Though it's been rocky, you've gathered a lot of information that could help us. I'm confident you will do it again." He says, she could tell there was more,"Also, I uh....you know. I wanted to say....."
"I'm sorry!" She interrupted. This blew him away,"I was being a jerk about that whole situation. I could have handled that mission from months ago a lot better. I was trying to prove that I am a valuable asset. I just wanted you to stop treating me like I'm the weakest link." She started getting bashful,"Also, Vern did have that coming and I'm still not sorry for that." She stated.
"It's alright. I understand why you did it And why you did that to Vern's place." She looked at him," Also, I don't think your 'the weakest link.' You're stronger than you know and I respect you deeply for it." She started to choke up at his words, he places his hands on her shoulders,"What's one of our biggest rules?"
She smiled,"You mess with one of us....."
"You mess with all of us." He finishes.
"That was Vern's mistake, He messed with my big brother. I returned the favor. Full tilt! Nobody messes with my big brother!" She states. He embraces her.
"Thank you, Vixy. You mean a lot to me. I want you to understand that." She hugs him back.
"I know. You mean a lot to me too, Leonardo. You're a great leader and I will always respect you for that. Even when you get on my nerves, love and respect will always be there. I may not show it enough, but I've learned more from you than you think." He pets her head.
The moment was genuine, real, calm. The tension was gone, the resent silenced, they were finally squashing the quarrel. Both couldn't have been happier.
"Do me a favor though?" He spoke.
"Sure."
"Next time you drop a diss track, give me a warning so I can mentally prepare."
They chuckle as they exited out of the sewers to join the others.
They joined the others in the alleyway, the turtles sporting their human forms as Leo changed to his. The others looked at them, sensing the positive vibe dripping off of them.
"Well it about dang time!" Dinah spat.
"Now that we're all cool, let's finish this!"
"Maybe after we finish the mission, we can all just finish our terms." Donnie suggested.
Everyone looked at him with mixed emotions.
"We'll see....." Alopex spoke.
They all left the alley with a much stronger purpose.
Your terrapin crush asks you a question. You fantasized about it many times (haven't we all when it comes to these guys)? A question that leads to one thing. Maybe 2 or more.
TOC (TURTLE OF CHOICE)
Ain't nothing like a day off. What better way to spend it than with your favorite ninja turtle. You couldn't ask for a better friend. Yeah, he has scales, a half shell, shoo dude ain't human. But ya love him just the same. Then things started getting intense. More intense than your norm.
TOC: Hey Y/N. Can I ask you something?
Y/N: Sure. What's up?
You see him taking a few breaths, as if he rehearsed his lines for a play and forgot mid scene. 'Now or never, man!'
TOC: Would you kiss a turtle?
You were taken back, but you didnt wanna shy away from this opportunity. You've had a crush on him for a long time. Get him, girl.
Y/N: That depends.
He turned to you, puzzled.
TOC: On what?
Y/N: If the turtle is okay with it. Some mind, some don't mind. Where do you stand?
He swallowed deep. Not expecting this type of response but fond with how sweet and considerate you are towards him. He places his 3 digit hand on your cheek.
TOC: I don't mind.
Y/N: Oh?
He chuckles at his shyness.
Y/N: You know I've had a crush on you, right?
He looked at you, stunned. He too has been crushing on you. Hard. He just wasn't sure you could put up with his duties as a ninja and being a turtle at that.
TOC: I do now. So, can I?
Y/N: Can you what?
Now you were just being a tease. He started sweating. You took pity, having mercy on him, inching closer to his snout.
Y/N: Yes. You can.
Your lips met in a soft kiss. Filled with pent up longing and adoration. Hands wandered. Silent moans escaping your lips. You separate.
TOC: I've waited long enough. Let's go.
Y/N: Go where....Whoa!
He picked you up and took you to his room. A night of bliss await you 2 new lovebirds.
Summary: Hes puzzled to your off and on attitude. Yet, he finds you interesting in a sense that hes never encountered such a fiery spirit. Time to get cozy, get to know the area, maybe some locals.
Chapter 4
The birds pecking at your window woke you up. You hissed, stretching out.
"Cute. Wheres the other 2 birds?" You teased, waving at the bird before getting up out of bed. The chill sending goosebumps up your bare body. Getting dressed, your mind started to wander.
'Last night was dream. A simple dream. A turtle did not save my dad. They're not in this house. There are not 4 turtles and a rat in this house. I did not meet him again. It was just a dream.' You whispered to yourself, mentally trying to dismiss last night. You were in complete denial.
You heard a few thuds coming from downstairs.
"Dad." You said to yourself. You check your phone, getting a reminder on where to meet for the next dance practice.
Crew Member: Meet at East 170th & Bristow Street at 3PM.
You smirked, confirming you'll be there. Dressed, hair fresh and right, you were ready to go.
Walking down the stairs like it was a normal day. You went to open the bathroom door, only to be greeted by the large turtle you willed your mind into believing was not in the house. He stared at you for a moment. You stared right back.
"Good morning." He spoke, his voice was husky, but calming.
"Good morning to you." You reply, averting your gaze so not to make him uncomfortable. "Did you and your family sleep well?"
"Yes. We did." He sounded stand-offish. As if he were waiting for something. Really hes been meditating half the night. You started messing with the ends of your braided hair.
"That's good. Any plans today?"
He hummed,"We're going to check out an area Donnie brought to my attention. Where we can park our truck. Why do you ask?"
You leaned against the wall,"Just asking. I have a thing at noon a little ways away from here. Maybe after, I don't know....." You started to feel awkward, most likely how you've been treating him without even giving him a chance. The guy did save you and your father,"If yinz want, you can follow me a few places in the city. See what it's all about, ya know...?"
He thought about your offer. He thought about what Splinter told him last night. He wasn't entirely sure if he should take you up on that offer or not. However, given the circumstances, including the fresh new gang in the area, he wanted to make sure whatever decision he made to be both beneficial and tactical. They were in the Bronx!
You looked at him as he pondered on a response. Taking in his form. Granted, his body was not like anything you've ever seen on a guy, but for a turtle that carries 2 katanas, he was kinda cute. Really cute.
'Hmm. He got some tight abs on him. Hes like ridiculously shredded! What the heck is up with you today?'
You shook yourself up as he was giving you a response,"If we have time, then sure. I have to check with Donnie and our friend April whose keeping us updated on things back home. Get the guys on board and see what can be done."
"Okay. That's fine. Ninja's are about stealth and stuff, right?" You asked, dismissing the 'whose April' question ringing in your head.
He chuckled,"Yes. That is correct."
"Then being discreet while you out won't be a problem. Just....." You started to feel weird again,"Try to keep a much lower profile. I went to get my hair done yesterday and the lady wouldn't stop talking about the shadow heroes that saved her from gettin' kidnapped."
Leo recalled that rescue,'Raphael!'
The conversation was subtle, feeling each other out a little. Friendly. Then there was a strange pause as you just stared at one another. He opened his mouth, about to say something.
"Anybody want some waffles?" Mikey's voice rang out from the kitchen. The smell hit your noses like a bus stacked with body builders. They'd been talking so comfortably, they forgot there were other parties in the house.
"Hungry? I hope it's okay my wild child brother made breakfast." He says, feeling a little embarrassed that Mikey was rummaging around your kitchen.
"I could use some breakfast. Where he get the ingredients for it?" You were curious because you didn't collect enough food from the pantry. He looked you over, then turned and walked away.
"Let's find out." He says. You snickered under your breath wondering if he rehearsed that. He sounded so cool and serious.
Entering the kitchen, you're greeted by a table with Belgian Waffles, eggs, bacon, and a big pot of grits, hot and ready on the stove. Your father sitting there having a conversation with Donnie and Master Splinter at the table. They turn and wave at you. Raph munching down like a competitive eater.
"Good morning, Ms. Y/N. How was your slumbers?" The elderly rat asked, hissing at Raph to show some manners. You smirked.
"I slept well. Thank you." Mikey walked over and handed you a plate of a large waffle you haven't seen in forever. You had a laugh when you noticed the apron he was wearing with 'Cookin' It Up' Stamped on the front.
"Hope you like em hot and fluffy. Like the chef!" He winked at you, earning scoffs and groans from his brothers and Splinter, while your dad found him amusing. You thanked him for the meal.
"This turtle's humor can cure cancer and all diseases!" He cackled some more as Mikey did a goofy dance on the way to the stove.
"It can also cause irritation and questioning of one's own sanity." Donnie responded, chowing down on some poptarts.
Your father explained how he wanted to treat his guests by going to the store while you were still sleeping to get some groceries to make a breakfast feast. He offered to cook but Mikey insisted, taking over the entire kitchen with his smiles and tummy tickling jokes.
"Yinz hooked us up with a place to chill. It's da least we could do." Raph spoke with his mouth full.
You whispered to Leonardo,"Is he always....."
"Gruff, rude, talks like a tough guy but cries in his sleep? Yes." He responded, earning a smile and laugh. "Astounding." He says to you. You turn to him with some waffle in your mouth, tilting your head at him. "You laughed and smiled at me. So there is more to you than this hood?"
You swallowed hard, clearing your throat. You had little to say. You were pointy to him last night, but you also hoped he didn't hear your dad giving your boyfriend the business either. "I may have gotten a little ghetto."
"A little?" He questioned. You rolled your eyes.
"Okay, big leader. I have a lot on my plate and I've been..... stressed, ya know?" You admitted, wondering if you slept wrong to be telling this turtle your business so early in the morning.
"That makes 2 of us." He said, you looked at him.
Your father checked his phone for any updates from last night's shooting.
So far, no one was injured but advised the workers to stay home until further notice. This relieves you since he will be home to recover. You checked your watch.
"It's 10:23AM. Imma take off. Gotta thing to prepare for." You announce.
"What is this thing if I may ask?" Splinter questioned.
"I lead a dance crew. We go about certain parts of the......"
Mikey quipped,"Wait! You're the leader of your own dance crew!!???" He placed his hands on his bald head in shock. "Could you be apart of that group we saw the other night?"
Everyone stilled as you retrieved one of your masks from your pocket, placing it over your face.
"Yup. Congrats, Leonardo. You didn't just save any ordinary damsel in distress, you saved a street performer." Donnie smirked, the way he said that kinda agitated you but you wanted to place that energy somewhere else.
Mikey kept overwhelming you with questions. They only increased in number when you told them all you were a poet who enters competitions. Donnie was thrown when you shared how one of your rewards was enough to redo the attic into a suitable bedroom. Raph behaved indifferently but he mentally nodded at your creative way to make money.
The conversation made you feel warm and fuzzy inside. Like these guys could be suitable friends. Donnie kinda creeps you out due to his height and the amount of wiring on his body. Leo however was fascinated by you. Despite the area you live in and your feisty nature, you make it a point to do what you can for yourself and your father. Then your father went and threw that out there.
"Since yinz'll be in the area for a little while, may as well get acquainted with the local matriarch." He finished his plate, patted his face. Watching you nearly choke on your juice.
"Who is dis matriarch? She crazy or somethin?" Raph commented, you started to like him a little.
'Bet he won't say that to her face!'
"Does she like turtles? Ya know, the ones that fight crimes and bench buildings?" Mikey bigged them up a little too much.
"Let's just say everyone who goes into that house, comes out changed. At least in some cases."
The turtles thought about it, having their own thoughts.
"I don't know." Leo spoke first,"We literally just got here. Don't wanna attract too much attention. Much less cause a ruckus. You were too kind allowing us to stay here." His duties of being leader also not wanting his brothers to get too attached to an area they don't plan on staying.
"Ah, come Leo." Mikey whines,"We can use this area to pump up our rep. Sharpen our game. Get some culture."
"Speak for yaself, Mikey!" Raph barked.
"I kind of agree with Leo." Donnie joined in,"I mean, it seems we're already the talk of the town. We don't want to cause any stirs while we're here."
Your father looked at Donnie,"Son, I ain't too familiar with Manhattan, but I know this. This woman has seen things. I guarantee, you will not faze her one bit. Or her kin. And in case you didn't notice, theres always a stir goin' on around here."
The turtles looked to their father, he sat and thought this through,"Perhaps it is appropriate to meet this matriarch."
Mikey punched his fist in the air, walks over to you with eyes that could make any girl weeze,"Guess it's a date, girl."
Raph rolled his eyes,"Whatever. Hope she ain't that type who shoots animals off her porch and posts them in her place like taxidermy."
You smirked at the turtles as you headed to the front door,"Think of her as Madea and Jennifer Lewis mashed together." The turtles squinted, the only one who knew what you meant was Mikey. Leo kindly collected your plate when you finished your waffle. His sapphire eyes seemed to gleam as he walked away from you to collect the other dishes.
"I better get goin." You speak, you kissed your father and bid the turtles and Master Splinter good-bye. Leo watched you leave, a sense of curiosity stronger than cats hes encountered on the streets.
"Still not 100% sure it's a good idea to be wandering about this city. It's still pretty early."
Your father responded,"It's best to leave now before she comes out."
Raph's face scrunched at another mention of a 'she' "Great. Another she. She who?"
"The she next door." Your father replied, sighing,"That girl and my daughter go way back. Now, they can't hold a descent conversation without throwing hands! If she sees you, she'll either turn you in for a hefty payday or try to put the moves on you like she does half the neighborhood! I don't think she even knows the baby daddy!" The turtles couldn't believe what they learned, confirming theres a lot of deep situations going on that they are smack in the middle of. Your father explained the story, Leo was troubled as to why stay in an area with someone you don't get along with anymore. Not at all interested with having to de-escalate a catfight.
"Imma catch up on some rest. Ya'll take care of business with your truck. Like I said, come and go as ya please so long as no one sees you." He explained, waving them off before retreating to his napping chair.
"I shall keep you company until later. It has been stressful since we had to change our living quarters." Splinter spoke, your father was happy to have company while the turtles made haste, carefully slipping out of the house to go to the location where the truck was parked.
Leonardo started to understand what Donnie meant and what you suggested to him last night. The abandoned building housing their truck was blocks away and he was learning the streets thoroughly.
Kids standing at the corner selling stuff they have no business having, when they should be in school or doing something better for themselves.
Women wearing the skimpiest clothing, some with no underwear, others doing too much with their make-up and jewelry, leaning into strange dude's vehicles to exchange STDs. So far only one vehicle had a cop posing as a pimp to catch these ladies to take them to jail.
Thugs walking around the block hustling women for money.
Single moms walking around with their babies, trying to catch the next bus.
A cop vehicle sitting on the curb, burned, destroyed, yellow tape all around it, with little punks and toddlers throwing rocks at it.
In some areas is was busy like Times Square. Vendors trying to make a living. Staying out of trouble. Trying to do right despite the rugged area they live in. Business with cameras that worked, but not good enough.
The turtles were disgusted. It was like certain parts in Manhattan, but on a more larger and serious scale. The people look to just go about things like normal. What upset the turtles the most, is to see young adults brawling while the people around them just stood and watch. No one stepped in to stop the brawl. The police taking too long to get to the situation. Leo had to hold Raph back because it was daytime and they couldn't be seen.
He growled,"This place is chaos! Every where I look it's like......" He paused when he looked down an alleyway to see a woman giving head to some random dude. It grossed him out because the dude looked older. Much older. He gagged.
"All this place needs is a little encouragement and hope." Mikey quipped. He was as sickened as his brothers but wanted to give it a try since they were there. He snatched Donnie's peashooter again and started shooting a volley of spitballs at some punks playing dice on the streets.
The kids didn't know what hit them as they ditched their game and ran off.
"Let me know when you're done teasing the locals so we can make sure our truck didn't get vandalized." Leo grumbled, Raph ticked he didn't get his turn with the peashooter as Donnie snatched it back to continue their way to the truck.
They finally get to the location, carefully sneaking into the building. So much graffiti, so much wear and tear on the structure. Yet, enough room to move around and theres 4 more stories for them to explore and da as they pleased.
"This place is huge! Ya sure we can't stay here long term?" Mikey's excitement was getting the best of him again as he ran about the building, mapping out their temporary hideaway.
"This building holds a lot of history. It used to a complex that housed a lot of people. This location was once booming with activity and traffic worse than Manhattan." Donnie explained, digging into the historic information of the building. Raph kicked some trash around.
"Now it's a wasteland for homeless people and a dump site for the next body."
"I don't wanna hear that!" Leo hissed, Raph shrugged.
"Too bad! It's true. This side of New York is nuts. Dudes here can't even pull up they pants much less afford to keep em up!" He lashed.
"Dudes! A skylight!" Mikey yelled from the top floor.
After collecting Mikey, they went to the garage to find it still intact and untouched. They went inside to take a load off and contact April via video chat.
April: Hey guys. How's Mott Haven?
The guys glared at each other. Leonardo wondering if she seriously meant to have them stay here temporarily.
Donnie: A lot of history. Culture. The amount of abandoned structures is astounding. It's an amusing side of New York.
Raph: So far I wanna knock the lights outta the next group of idiots who think they tough!
Raph punches his fist into his hand. April rolls her eyes at his roughness.
Mikey: Sup AngelCakes, this place is awesome!!! I feel so in tuned. Feel like I wanna leave my mark all over this place.
Leo: You already did. We smell it!
He shoves Mikey.
Leo: Anyway, what's the update on the lair, April?
April made a face.
April: Whatever happened will take a while to clear out. Even when it's cleared, cleaning it will take forever.
Donnie: Forever? As in 2 to 4 weeks?
April: Most likely longer.
Leo groaned. Sensing something else is going on. It felt so random that the lair suddenly got flooded. What's the real cause?
April: Look at it this way. Mott Haven is a city in need of some saviors to wake them up. Crime there is worse than Manhattan.
Donnie: Well, there is a new street gang that we can look into. We found a few hiding places.
Thats when Donnie explained to April on how Leo saved a man from death during a shootout at a construction site. The man giving them a place to lie low, only to realize another person living in the home that Leo saved prior to their arrival to the area. April was amazed with the story.
April: Wow. Guess fate has something in store for you, doesn't it Leonardo?
Leonardo turned his head away, not wanting to touch up on it too much. April noticed his demeanor.
April: I know this is bad. The lair getting flooded and all. But, it sounds like you made a few friends that have accepted you. I didn't hear anything about turtles wandering about Mott Haven, so....... Just stay there for a while. Mingle. Clean up the streets.
They listened to her and started to come around little.
Donnie: We have the truck at least. There's a junkyard we can explore. Collect a few things.
April: That's the spirit! It'll be alright guys. Me, Casey, Vern, and the new commissioner are working on the cause of the flood. Maybe when it's cleared up, Mott Haven will be alive again.
Leonardo: We'll see. Keep us posted, O'Neil. Signing out.
Mikey: Bye, AngelCakes!
The call ended. The guys started scanning the area for exits. Raph, Mikey, and Donnie were looking over the area through Donnie's hologram screen while Leo went further up the building. There were different rooms. Mattresses, wrapped furniture, windows shattered, gunshots in the walls, clothes, and the usual garbage.
'People sleep here for a while, then leave. It's a shame there aren't enough homeless shelters.' He thought, tracing his hand along the wall. As he explored, he started to hear voices. Claps and stomping. Music. A female voice giving instructions.
He walked over towards the sound. A window in the hallway looking over towards the building right next door to the building he and his brothers were in. He saw the building was just as the abandoned with windows punched in and gunshots littering the outer walls. The voice came again.
"Great job, ya'll! That block party gonna be lit when we crash it! Ya'll believe that!!??" The female voice was met by the sound of claps and applause.
Leo froze,"It's her again." He peaked around the corner of the window to get a glimpse, sure enough, there you were. Wearing completely different attire than what you walked out of the house in. You were wearing jeggings, Adidas shoes, leopard print sports bra, with your cornrows as pristine as they were when you got them done. 'She looks so......perfect.' He caught that thought, questioning himself. He watched you dance, giving instructions to your crew, careful not to get spotted.
'Huh, so this is the 'thing' she mentioned earlier. Hope she doesn't let her mouth get in the way of it.' He thought, smirking to himself. Finding you amusing to have so much time on your hands to lead a dance crew.
You told everyone to take 5 and stretch it out. You walked over to the window, stretching and rolling your shoulders to get out all the kinks and strains. You reached your hands above your head, letting out a small whimper, unknown to you that a certain turtle was glaring at you from across the way.
When you were done stretching, you lowered your head down, looked out the window to see Leonardo as he shifted away from the window. Your eyes bulged, not making a sound in case your crew saw him. He was stiff when you noticed him.
'Fantastic! My stealth needs work and shes probably gonna flip on me for spying on her or something.'
You sighed,'Is he really staring at me in my sports bra? And how the heck long has he been standing there?' Not wanting to appear suspicious, you went back to your crew and started discussing the next performance coming up.
Your volume caught Leo's attention as you explained the block party coming up in a week, wanting everyone to bring their A-Game in this sleepy and sad part of New York.
There was clapping and then came questions and concerns about the gang activity they've heard about.
'What if they try something?'
'Is the police gonna be on heavy alert during the party?'
Their concerns and questions made you wary from time to time, but you knew something they didn't.
You had mutants ninja turtles in your neighborhood for protection for the time being. The discussion was a great distraction from catching Leonardo glaring at you.
His brothers walked towards him as you kept talking. Leo had to motion for them to keep quiet as you spoke. Donnie documented the location of the block party in his tablet, the time it starts and mapping out the exits and potential road blocks.
The turtles peaked through some of the windows as you spoke to your crew. They were ordinary people who just want to spread some fun in the neighborhood without getting shot or jumped. A few of the members were teenagers.
Mikey started scheming as he discreetly climbed out of the window. Despite Leo's silent protests, he jumped onto the wall of the building you and your crew were in, climbed up the wall and found a place to get a better view without detection.
The others follow him, finding their own spots to watch from above. Leo hesitated, feeling a bit guilty that hes eavesdropping on you. Now his brothers are making it worse, forcing him to have to join.
'As if she doesn't dislike me enough.' He exits the building to join his brothers to watch you and your crew get down.
The music was turnt up as were you leading the rehearsal like you've done this so many times. Your flexibilty impressed Leo, thinking you have a spark that fascinated him more.
The turtles rocked to the music, Mikey getting himself excited again to which Raph had to calm him down.
'Can't believe we're watching this again! This is too awesome! I wonder if I can get autographs!'
Donnie was intrigued but also amazed with how well the crew executed their moves,'Their team work is unmatched. They're so in sync.'
Raph nodded his head,'Cute. A hoodrat leading her own dance crew. Maybe Leo can learn a thing or 2 for once.' He thought the group had style, seeing some potential
They all continued to watch as you gave counts, helping dancers with whatever troubles they may have. Even doing the steps beside them.
"That's right! 1, 2, 3, 4. 4, 3, 2, 1. Spin and Bop. Ladies, Drop It Like It's Hot!" You and the lady dancers dropped it low, letting your behinds quiver while the male dancers did their dance break routine.
He didn't realize it, but Leo licked his lips as he watched your behind sweep the ground like a broom. He caught what he did, checking to make sure his brothers did not catch the gesture.
'Get it together, Leonardo. This is a rehearsal, not a strip club. And I hate strip clubs!' He took a deep breath, continuing to watch the rehearsal. It was clear you assumed he and his brothers left given how loose and comfortable you are. So radiant. Like you were telling a story through dance. The way you gave directions was understanding, subtle. If any members had concerns, you addressed it professionally with kindness and patience.
When rehearsals were over, everyone left. You waved them all off, wishing them safe travels and to keep their heads up.
"Man oh man, I could use a.....ahhh!" You shrieked, noticing not just one turtle head staring at you from the broken ceiling, but 3 more to accompany it. "Ya'll really get around so silently. I ain't even gonna ask how long yinz were up there."
The snoopy terrapins descended to your level, the thuds echoed through the building. Leo looked at you with those eyes, a shock surrounded your body. 'Hmm. Guess I was intense during rehearsal.'
"We were next door making sure the truck was intact. We could use the building as another place to crash so we're not annoying or bothering you and your father." You were a little annoyed with the fact that this turtle would think he and his brothers were a 'bother.' The one thing that really annoyed you, was how Leonardo kept looking at you. You could feel him drinking in your soul.
"Stop. The only thing that's a bit of a bother, is your brother's eyes gawking at me." You turned towards him, he didn't flinch as he kept his eyes focused on you,"Gotta problem, big leader? See somethin' you like?"
He was once again stunned by your demeanor, chucking it off to you winding down from rehearsal, he sighed,'She is still in her sports bra, asking me this question. I feel like shes baiting me and of all times to do this has to be in front of my brothers. Is this what people call 'putting on a front' or something?' He didn't respond, keeping all his thoughts to himself, while you stood there with a smug look on your face, wanting him to say something smart.
"Don't even waste ya lungs, Doll!" Raph intercepted, cutting the tension in half,"He looks at everyone like that. It's his nature."
"Huh. I get it. We all have our little quirks. Did yinz enjoy the show? Care for an encore?" You asked, your sass taken down a notch as time went on slowly. Yet, Leo's eyes didn't change.
"You was off the chiz-zain, girl. Your footwork is on point. The way you dropped it low was like magic" Mikey quipped dropping it low much like you and the ladies did. His brothers turned their heads, begging him to stop. His goofiness and his brothers reactions started to shift the mood,"You may be better than Leonardo himself."
You giggled,"I haven't really seen much of his footwork, but I'd like to see how he works it."
The guys ooed at the comment. For a moment, Leo started to find you somewhat bearable. 'She is strange. Yet, entertaining.'
"I have to check in with my dad. After wards, wanna follow me around the neighborhood for a while?" You offered,"Not sure how much you've seen on the way here, but maybe I can lead you to a few places that have significance in this city."
The turtles have seen a lot on the way to the building. Many of which were negative. In Leo's mind he wanted to just lie low, do his katas, sharpen his blades and wait for the next patrol. Yet, something about this city has had him on edge. The Turks were a rising issue but he sensed something or someone else was behind the scenes. He looked to you.
"I suppose it wouldn't hurt to tour the city a little more." This response surprised even Raph.
"Whoa. I was expecting the old 'Thanks but no thanks' bit. I'm curious about the food choices ya got here. Maybe the dump here got a workout bench or somethin." He wondered, you smirked.
"People throw stuff away all the time. Too much of it is technology, like TVs, game consoles, even antiques." This both intrigued and offended Donnie. "Imma call dad. Then we'll get going. When it gets darker, I'll take you to her place."
As you got your dad on the phone, the turtles wondered who this she person is. When you and your father mentioned her earlier, it appeared the 2 of you not only have a deep respect but maybe a hint of fear.
'I hope shes as accepting of us as Y/N is. It'd be nice to have a few allies here to help us out. Give us time to get to the bottom of what's really going on around here.'
You ended the call,"Dads okay and so is Splinter. Yinz hungry? I know a place not far from here that has some bangin' calzones and pizzas!"
That got their attention, mainly Mikey,"Girl, you speakin' my love language. Lead the way."
You laughed some more, Leo smirked,'Her laugh.....It's so adorable.'
You put on your jacket and left the building, wandering about the neighborhood with the turtles following you from rooftop to rooftop.
You gave the turtles the tour of the city. The good parts at least. You showed them the food pantry you volunteer at. A small cafe place you go to for poetry nights and a few competitions. One of the parks you visit from time to time to get away from the stress of the hood.
Mikey kept pestering Donnie to write down all the pizza places to keep in mind while they're here. Raph seemed to appreciate calzones a lot. Donnie was just taking it all in good stride. Leonardo was the same as he was when he was at the building. He still has his suspicions but also took the time to get to know the environment.
It was fun showing the turtles around. Though they were a few stories above your head, they saw and heard it all. Literally. Your phone rings as you walk to the corner and wait for the light to change. It's your 'boyfriend.'
BF: Sup Babe. What's goin' on?
Y/N: Not much. Just wandering about the city looking for some inspiration.
BF:Yeah sure, that poetic junk or whatever. I got basketball practice tomorrow at the YMCA. Gonna be there?
You could not believe the amount of disrespect he has for your art. Your talent. Your craft. You refused to argue over the phone so you took a deep breath.
Y/N: Alright. What time?
BF: 6:30PM. We just about there. I feel it.
As you walked across the street, barely listening to his rant about how hes gonna get to the top as soon as he plays the big game, Donnie had hacked into your phone system, listening in on your conversation.
Leonardo thought it was inappropriate to listen in on your conversation since he was caught red handed staring at you, this took the cake. But, on the flip side, he didn't seem to care much for this 'boyfriend' of yours. The way he talked was like those thugs you come across trying to be fake in order to get respect. Even Raph was getting agitated just listening to him.
BF: So ugh, about that one time....We good or what....?
Y/N: How many more times do I have to make excuses for your little games? My dad ain't the only one telling me things about you. Even my crew be tellin' me stuff.
You could hear him laughing on the other end.
BF: Forget them! They ain't us! They will never be us! Besides, we both know nobody around here got the time or energy for this craft your doing. Nobody cares for poetry. Maybe somebody but not everybody. You need a man. A real man that'll take care of you so you don't have to waste time with this poetry and dance gig.
While you and him bickered, the turtles were seething.
The remarks made Mikey as angry as Raph,"Who does this guy think he is! Who disses their girl like that?" He lashes out, Raph and Donnie agreed, curling their lips in utter disgust.
"If she were my girl, I'd support her all the way no matter what other people think. I'd crush anybody who tried to tell her otherwise. I'm itchin' to give this dude some black and purple spots if I ever find out who he is!!!" Raph was ticked off.
"The real question: Why is she forcing herself to put up with this? Not even April or Commish would take that!" Donnie added, thinking this neighborhood needs more than someone to brighten their day, they need a huge revival.
Leo couldn't agree more. He had many mixed emotions. Your boyfriend made it worse as he basically apologized profusely for his words, then you accepting it.
'How could she date somebody like that? Are guys around here so full of crap that good women here are forced to settle with them? We should never have listened in on this. She confuses and amuses me, but no woman should have to take this from anyone!'
The call ended on a awkward note with you telling him you may or may not be at his game. You continued on walking about, unknown to you that the turtles heard it all.
The sun began to fall as you made your way to the final stop of the day. The junkyard.
Of all beings in the world to be so ecstatic and hyper over garbage was Donatello. The junkyard was stacked with monitors, TVs, and even a motorcycle he could work on to pass the time.
"So many treasures here. I know people throw stuff away all the time but this is like technicians wonderland!" He was a jittery as he went about pointing out the many different items he could collect, suggesting he come back with the truck to pick some stuff up and take it back to their hideout.
As he and his brothers wandered about the dump, you wandered too. Aside from that call with your so-called boyfriend, the rest of your day was awesome. As if a new vibe came up and stayed with you the entire day.
You circled around vehicles both crushed and still awaiting to be crushed. Puddles of diesel mixed with leakage from soiled trash. The winds provided another chill you needed, the chains dangling from vehicles and machines sharing their tunes. Faint sounds of sirens in the distance, a reminder of where you are. The skies spoke to you.
Inspiration came.
"They call this place a dump."
You began to recite, your voice a low, melodic hum that cut through the distant wail of sirens.
"A final resting place for things that broke. But I see a library. Each hubcap a sun that once spun, each cracked mirror a portal to a thousand different faces I could have been."
You began to walk, your steps finding a rhythm, a slow, deliberate beat. Your arms moved, not in grand gestures, but in subtle, flowing arcs, as if you were conducting the symphony of creaking metal and dripping condensation.
"Look! A television screen, shattered like a spider's web. It doesn’t show the news, the violence, the same old dread. It shows the cosmos. It shows the big bang, frozen in a fractal of glass. It's more honest than the broadcast ever was."
You continue to recite, carefree. The vibe bringing you back to the place of peace. The hood, the constant pressure, the sirens that were the heartbeat of this city, you were dissecting it all.
Unbeknownst to you, prying eyes and invisible ears were drinking in your words and your vibe. Listening, understanding. You came upon a pile of rusted chains, their links corroded together. You knelt, not picking them up, but to look at them. Envisioning their former purposes.
"These chains."
You mumbled, your voice dropping an octave, becoming heavier.
"They once held boats to docks. They once held doors closed to keep the cold out. But they're only iron. Iron can break. Iron can rust. The real chains are the ones we wear beneath our skin. The weight of the corner store you can't afford. The sound of a gunshot you pretend you didn't hear. The expectation that you will be loud, angry, or small. They forge these chains in the fires of 'that's just how it is.'
You finish. Looking towards the skies. A smile curled your face. The breeze adding an extra soothing atmosphere. All this vibing happening in the middle of a dump. Guess it could be worse.
Your vibe was enhanced by the sounds of......snapping fingers? You look around to find the source. Sure enough, it was him again. Leonardo. Leaned up against a busted up SUV, snapping his fingers, trying too hard to look cool and collected. It was clear that you may have to get used to being watched by ninjas. You didn't say a word, trying to keep the vibe that's brought you this far. Also, trying to keep that tongue of yours under control.
"It seems like that mouth of yours has more to offer than sassy comments." He spoke, walking towards you.
You stood firm, unafraid. Yet, his comment didn't cut the vibe. It enhanced it.
"Glad you enjoyed the show. I suppose you think poetry is junk too. Like half the stuff here?" You huffed, not out of anger but disappointment.
Leo stepped to you, his eyes doing that thing to you again. What is this? He needs to stop looking at me like that!
"No." He responded, you leaned your head back, your eyes widened a hair,"I think that was the most amazing poem I've ever heard. In fact, I think you should write it down and keep it close. Recite it at your next poetry gathering."
Your body stiffened, while in his mind, he was doing and saying the complete opposite of that no good wannabe boyfriend of yours. Aside from your father and a few other poetry lovers, his compliment felt so genuine. For once, you really had no comeback. Just silence. He was waiting for you to sass him again.
You couldn't. What for?
It started to get awkward as you both stood face to face beneath the moon. Not a word was exchanged, just a slow understanding of one another. A silent understanding. His gaze made you feel weird, yet different.
"Your hair....." He muttered,"Your hair is amazing too. It adds an extra spark to your style. It's beautiful."
You were so glad blush didn't show on you, because he already took your breath away from his comment, now he was complimenting your hair. You got flustered, bashful, shy. You felt like you were about to combust when he practically reminded you the woman hes supposed to meet.
Clearing your throat,"Wow, uhm.Thank you. That's very sweet of you to say." You began, he smirks at the cracking in your tone, not helping your case as you brushed a loose braid from your face"Which reminds me, we should gather your brothers. It's dark enough and she is probably still awake. Follow me and I'll introduce you."
He squinted his eyes,"Are you sure it's a good idea for us to show up at some ladies house? I mean, we stick out a lot."
He made a point, these guys are ridiculously bulky. They need some sort of disguises. Thankfully Mikey came by as he heard you and Leo discussing going over to your friend's house.
"Yo dudes, look what I found!" He pulled out their disguises, Leo sighed while you kinda giggled. Raph and Donnie came out after Donnie found a place to stash his findings. Raph looked at the disguises.
"Trench coats! Great, he I go again with the trench coat thing. Time fer yinz to feel what I felt while I went out looking for you!" He barked, recalling how April pretty much forced him to put on the coat despite his much bulkier appearance.
"It's better than nothing. Wrap up and let's go." Leo ordered, you smirked.
"As you command, Oh Fearless Leader! Hahahaha!"
"Funny. I was waiting for that." He replied, you winked at him, puzzling him even more. Impressing him as well.
You had quite a laugh seeing the turtles in different attire. When they were ready, you left the junkyard first and begun your tread to her house.
You approach the large brick building. 4 stories high. Porch light dim but still on. No one was around as you walked onto the porch and knocked on the door. it took a moment but finally she answered, annoyed that you were out at this time of night.She looked at you with a pointed face.
"Girl, you know what time it is!" She hissed, you nodded,"Your father called and told me what's up." She went on to explain how your father got shot at and rescued. When she asked him to come over, he had company with him. "He said you'd come by. Tell ya friends to stop hidin', get in here, and get something to eat and drink!" She ordered, her tone made the turtles shiver as she headed back into the house. You stepped off the porch, giving the turtles a signal to come down from the building. Leo was very hesitant to enter but Mikey once again acted, forcing the others to act as well.
'Finally! An old lady is gonna scream at us instead! Hope she doesn't have a heart attack. I ain't givin' no lady mouth to mouth tonight!' Raph thought, getting his ears ready for the scream of his life.
Their speed was ridiculous, but they got inside and shut the door. You were shocked to see Master Splinter sitting at her table drinking tea.
"Oh my goodness. Splinter? How did you....? How long have you.....?" You were tripping over your words, but Splinter revealed your father dropped him off so he can get a head start on meeting the neighborhood matriarch. As you and Splinter talked, the turtles took in the she you and your father kept mentioning.
She was indeed older, her dreadlocks went to the middle of her back. A few greys but each strand told a story. She looked to be in her 40s or 50s. Yet, she walked like shes been in many battles, carrying herself with a strength that deserves respect. She had scars on her neck and face. What stuck out the most was her eyes. One green, the other purple. She looked at them without fear nor hesitation. The turtles were puzzled to why she is helping them and why she doesn't fear them.
Donnie was besides himself as she offered them food she prepped for her guests, his curiosity got the best of him"Automatically opening your home to mutants is very bold of you. We appreciate your kindness but why aren't you......?"
She raised her hand,"Does your son always talk like this? Or is he just nervous being around an old lady?" Donnie felt like he crossed the line with his question. Splinter shook his head.
'Old? Where?' You thought.
"No. My sons are gentlemen to a fault. They are not used to so much acceptance." He responded.
"I can tell. Don't worry, fellas. Of all places you can bunk in this neighborhood, this is by far the safest you'll ever get. Allow me to introduce myself." She placed cups of water on her table for them to drink, taking her seat,"My name is Vivian. I own this entire building. I run just about anything in this building. But, I do not allow drugs, alcohol, or vapes here. So if you're that type, keep it outside and away from this house! Or better yet, don't do it at all!"
"Yes, ma'am." Donnie and Mikey say in unison and none of the turtles do any of those things.
Leonardo introduced himself and his brothers. Still unsure of how to feel about this woman being so gracious to allow them to take refuge at her place.
"Everyone calls her Aunt Vee. Shes not really our aunt but shes seen enough to put this area on lock down anytime she chooses. This is where I got my hair done. She and her daughters do hair, house the needy, and babysit." You spoke, she smiled at you. Leo was still pretty skeptical. Mikey, Donnie, and Raph were impressed. Splinter admiring her dedication and kind hearted spirit.
"So what? You runnin' some sort of safe haven for mutants or somethin?" Raph's attitude was showing, all you did was turn your head, smiling.
"Only ones who are associated with Rebecca Vincent."
That response is what did it for all of them.
"You know of Commish? How....?" Leo's questioned didn't even finish and she answered.
"Me and Becca go way back. Believe it or not, I was there during your keys to the city ceremony." This shocked even you. Keys to the City?
They were both on the force in Manhattan. She and Becca were partners. Vivian always watching her back and supporting her. Becca wanted to work her way up the ranks, while Vivian wanted to stick more to the shadowy parts, the sketchy parts. Parts only she could understand. They made it a point to always watch each other's back. It got sad when Vivian revealed how she was let go due to being under suspicion of tampering with evidence. The only person who believed her was Rebecca yet even she had couldn't do much due to her rank. No one ever revisited the case, placed into the cold case files.
Despite the circumstances, Vivian and Rebecca stayed in touch and stayed close. No matter how far they are from each other.
"Whoa! So you were a cop and now you're like the hood's auntie?" Mikey asked.
"Hehe. In a manner of speaking, yes. So many people have come in and out of this house. So many stories. Too many issues. I will admit, I was shocked when I met your father, but theres a lot of rats around here. Too many bad ones. Not enough good ones." She took a sip of her tea, studying each of the turtles until her gaze settled on both Raph and Leo.
"Is that why you're helping us? Because of your connection with Vincent?" Leo asked. She placed her tea on the table and faced him.
"I'm helping you because it is the right thing to do. Believe it or not, you don't surprise me in the slightest. I sense a good vibe from all of you. Rebecca made me swear to keep you safe and that's what Imma do. I imagine you've heard about our growing problem as well." She spoke, Leo felt his throat tighten and a sense a familiarity in her words.
"Yes. The Turks is what they're called. We stopped a few but you say they're growing?"
She nods,"Unfortunately. Some of my girls have come to me, telling me how there have been random shootings. Robberies. Dealings. So far one of mine is still in a coma." The turtles were saddened and angered. It was the same boy that you mentioned to your father not long ago.
"This is the initiation faze. New members being tested in order to prove themselves worthy. Day or night, they up to something. I can feel it." She added, Splinter gently placed his paw over her hand.
"We are here. If there is something that can be done, we will be there for it." He reassures her. She welcomed his gesture with a smile.
"Thank you." She looked at the clock, she summons her daughters,"Tyreeka, Monet, Trudy. Come down here!"
3 women make their appearance to the turtles, appearing just as unfazed as their mother. Raph started to wonder what kind of inner city they were residing in because the amount of acceptance was too much for even him to handle. They weren't even scared of Master Splinter and they were suggesting he stay upstairs in one of the guest rooms so he isn't straining himself going up and down the stairs. Aunt Vee instructed the girls to make sure the turtles are comfortable. The girls obey without an issue, commenting how they've heard talks about shadow ninjas and are happy to help.
The kindness and generosity was overwhelming. They all wanted it to be a dream. Wondering if they drowned during the flood and have awakened in a universe that accepts them without issue. Willing to keep their secrets. Willing to help.
'This cannot be real. What if they report us? Tell us to leave?' Raph pondered, Aunt Vee caught his facial expressions.
"Big Man, wipe that look off your face." She scolded him, he was taken aback by her tone, sounded like the mother he never had,"This may seem strange to you but believe me, your safe here for as long as you need. One of my rules in this house, is that whatever happens in this house, stays in this house!"
He almost started to like her. Mikey however was already becoming her favorite as he kept asking so many question of what she did on the force. While she showed them around, you looked over at Leo. Arms crossed, the look on his face said he shouldn't push it. You announced you were going to head home for the night.
"It's pretty late. I can walk you home." Leo suggested, you felt your body quake strangely.
"Uhm, I'm good. I got it. Ain't nobody gon start nothin' with me!"
You and Leonardo stared each other down like they were about to fight.
'This chick is wild. Don't she understand it's dangerous out there? She numb or somethin?' Raph found your attitude annoying especially after what you just listened in on. Aunt Vee slammed her fist on the table.
"Enough of that snarky attitude Little Miss Poetic Justice!" She snapped, catching your attention,"If a man offers to walk you home, you accept, not debate. Gon get up outta here. Tell your father to call me and you turtle man, be back soon. Don't need to here walking turtles wandering the streeets at night, ya hear?"
He nodded,"Yes, Ma'am." Now he was doing it, much to his brother's amusement.
The turtles and Master Splinter got comfortable, getting to know Aunt Vee and her daughters. Splinter sensed their was more to Aunt Vee than she lead on.
"Question for you boys." She spoke, grabbing all their attentions.
"Yes?"
"Have experience with kids?"
The turtles look at one another in confusion, swallowing pretty hard.
The walk to your house was long and odd. It was too quiet. At night in an area like the ones you wander in, no one can be trusted. Leo may have been above your head watching out for you, you felt someone else is watching you too.
You get to your front door. The coast was clear for him to accompany you so you got in safely.
"Thanks." You say, avoiding his gaze.
"Don't mention it." He replies. So nonchalant and unfazed. You wanted to be agitated but couldn't find a reason to. It feels likes hes reading you.
"I better get inside and you better get back to Aunt Vee. She can be very......strict." You reminded him. He chuckled.
"I sensed that. She seems like a reliable source to go to. Seems like people are more accepting than I thought."
"When all you see is chaos, cowardice cops, and dead buddies, anything abnormal is normal to some. Even you. I just didn't know she had a connection to the commissioner. Maybe I should learn something myself." You rubbed the back of your head.
"I'm learning a lot because of you. I'm going to get to the bottom of this situation and end it before anyone else gets hurt." He was so authoritative, you started to feel things.
"Sounds good. I'm gonna hold you to that. Have a good night, Leonardo. See you soon." You opened the door, about to go in when he gave you one last thought.
"I meant what I said at the junkyard." He began, you turn to face him,"Your poetry is amazing, beautiful, and inspiring........Just like you." Your heart pumped faster, you didn't have the words to say. "Sleep well, Y/N." He took off into the night, leaving you speechless.
Thankfully, your father was asleep as you made haste running up to your room and shutting the door. You stripped away your clothes to see the sweat dribbling down your body. You climbed into bed and just looked out the window. Trying to figure out exactly how to react to this turtle's comment. Anger? Rage? Frustration? Resentment? No. He didn't make you feel small or unnoticed. This creature. This turtle. Saw you.
The shock of his words had you weak in the knees to where all you could do was think.
'What is he doing to me? Is he playing me? Tryna be funny? No. It was real. What he said was......real.'
You placed your hand over your heart, the sensation still lingering.
'I can still feel it.'
While you pondered yourself to sleep, Leo was back at Aunt Vees, feeling something himself. Like you, he too questioned what it means.
Imagine you're away from ya man for a long period of time, feelin' a hint of sexual frustration. Now imagine that man being a sex crazed mutant ninja turtle wanting to hear your voice.
You just finished putting the finishing touches on your thesis. Long, hard days perfecting your assignments, your body screaming for a break. You finally get one. In a very well needed phone call. You've been dating your terrapin lover for a year now, things have progressed a lot lately. To a more steamy level.
He'd just finished his workout and had an hour before he had to go on patrol.
You look at your phone and of course it's him.
Y/N: Whats up, Raph?
Raphael: Da sky. Ya takin' a break yet?
Y/N: Yes. Finally.
Raphael: Took ya long enough. Startin' ta wonder if you were dodgin'.
Y/N: Dodging what exactly?
Raphael smirked in the phone. How should I start this?
Raphael: Let's just say I've been thinkin' bout ya.
Y/N: Really? In what way?
She just started something now!
Raphael: Wishin you were here right now. Sprawled on my bed.
Her imagination automatically kicked in at the tone of his voice. Her body shaking. She'd been fantasizing about him non-stop. So much so that pleasing herself felt like cheating. She wanted his hands only. Her lips started moving on their own, the words rushing out without hesitation.
Y/N: Legs spread wide for you.
He was taken aback for a moment. Biting his lip. He chuckled. 'I got her now!'
Raphael: Droolin' at ya wet cooch, dripping fa me!
Y/N: Admiring your love hammer as it gets harder and harder.
Raphael: Tastin' ya!
Y/N: Strokin' you!
Raphael: Wantin' ya!
Y/N: Needing you!
The exchange getting intense. Raph's boner rising. Y/N's cooch dripping.
Raphael: Slowly pushin' my key in ya ignition!
Y/N: Holding you tight as you go further inside me!
Raphael: Poundin' ya into the bed.
Y/N: Touching your strong, sexy body.
Raphael: Squeezing those melons of yers!
Y/N: Shouting your name till I can't....
Raphael: Say My Name, Baby! Say it!
Y/N: Raphael.....!
Before he knew it, he'd nutted on himself. He didn't even touch his meat. His shorts were ruined as he took a breather. Silence filled the atmosphere.
Y/N: You still there, Baby?
Raphael: Yeah. Just......
Y/N: Let me guess.....You unloaded on yourself?
His eyes twitched. He couldn't say a word. 'How the shell did she know?'
Y/N: It's alright. Just make sure to save the next one for me!
She purred into the phone. Bidding him farewell, guaranteeing him that they'll see each other again very soon.
As he sat on the bench, he looked at the time.
"Betta hit da shower before Leo gets on my shell again!"
With that, the big lug went straight to the showers. All the while, his girl also had to hit the showers due to saturating her underwear.
Leonardo would appreciate what the holiday represents more than the celebration itself. The idea of people gathering peacefully with family, feeling safe enough to celebrate late into the night, reminds him why he and his brothers protect New York. Watching the city enjoy itself without knowing they're being quietly watched over would be enough for him. He wouldn't envy the crowds as much as he'd appreciate seeing the results of their work.
—————————————————————
Raphael
Raphael wouldn't care much about the history or traditions, but he'd appreciate having an excuse to relax without feeling guilty. Good food, being around his family, and hearing laughter instead of alarms would be enough. He'd complain about the noise of the fireworks, joke that they sound like explosions anyway, but secretly enjoy sitting on a rooftop watching them while pretending he isn't paying attention.
—————————————————————
Donatello
Donatello would be fascinated by the engineering behind fireworks, the logistics of citywide celebrations, and the technology that makes such a massive event happen safely. At the same time, he'd appreciate the rare opportunity to spend an evening with his family without someone needing his inventions to save the world. It would be one of the few nights he'd willingly put most of his projects aside.
—————————————————————
Michelangelo
Michelangelo would love nearly everything about the holiday. The food, the decorations, the music drifting through the city, and especially the fireworks. More than anything, he'd love the excitement in the air. Even from a secluded rooftop, he'd soak up every bit of it, treating the whole evening like one giant party and happily making memories with the people he cares about.
—————————————————————
April O'Neil
For April, the Fourth of July would be less about fireworks and more about making sure the turtles get to experience traditions they would otherwise miss. She'd enjoy putting together a simple meal, bringing dessert, or finding a quiet rooftop where everyone could watch the city celebrate together. Seeing the brothers relax, laugh, and simply be themselves would make the holiday feel worthwhile.
—————————————————————
Casey Jones
Casey would appreciate the straightforward parts of the holiday: grilling if he could, eating too much, watching fireworks, and spending time with people he considers family. He's not overly sentimental, but he'd quietly value nights where nobody has to fight, nobody is getting hurt, and everyone can just enjoy each other's company. To him, that's what freedom should feel like.
—————————————————————
Splinter
Splinter would view the holiday through the lens of gratitude rather than patriotism. As someone who has spent years hidden from the world while raising four sons, he would appreciate seeing them laugh freely, share a meal, and experience moments of peace together. Watching them grow into honorable young men with trusted human friends would remind him that, despite the hardships they have endured, they have built a family worth celebrating.
4th of July, ya'll. Lets do this right. I tried to put a lot into this because I'm not sure its been done yet. At least in this fashion. Anyway, It's the 4th of July and we got some hungry ladies and hungry turtles. Let's get these terrapins outta the sewers and into more open spaces. The cook(s) may surprise you. Please, Enjoy😏😎

The sun was shining, birds chirping, and the excitement was definitely flowing as the turtles and the Muses rode in the girl's new and improved jet headed to a mansion out in the country. Mikey, Dinah, and Kenzi danced in the aisles, twirling and doing tricks, excited about getting out and about to stretch their legs, eat big, and have a large amount of fun.
Raphael and Alopex lounging, having their make out session out of view of their siblings. He grasped her juicy behind, helping her roll her hips on his groin.
"Good thing these seats warp into beds, huh?" She whispered, guiding his hands to her breasts. He licked his lips.
"I think I like dis jet already." He sinks his head into her chest, she holds him tight, caressing his scalp.
Leonardo and Donatello were busy checking on April and the others who escorted Splinter in their vehicle to the mansion. Leonardo talked to Kenzi and the Chief regarding the area, making sure their is no one around to see 4 mutant turtles along with their mutant rat father. He's been told many times that its alright. Even showing him a photo along with the map of the property.
Dinah takes a load off to check in on Leonardo while Donatello went to the cockpit to get a good eye view.
"How are you feelin,' Sweety?" She asked, wrapping her arms around his biceps.
"Cautious. You know me. I don't just protect a city, I protect my family too." He explains, stroking her hands.
"I know. You always do a phenomenal job. You and your brothers." She purred, using her tail to stroke his cheek. Kenzi heard them talking and jumped in.
"Yes, indeed. With the crime rate going down lately, don't you think its appropriate to have a family get-together?" Kenzi chimes, planting her cheek against Leo's. "When's the last time you celebrated the 4th of July with a Big Bang?"
Leonardo knew the answer to that question, but what do you expect? The guy has been protecting the city for so long, hes hardwired in it. He's had a lot of pent up frustrations. Training aggressively. Constantly meditating. Even boning Dinah just to get more action. (Though she loves it when hes forceful sometimes).
Alopex managed to separate from Raph to add a few words of her own.
"Ma, insisted we have the get-together. We've worked so hard and succeeded on many different occasions protecting the city and doing some undercover work. We need this, from one leader to another, I think you would agree."
Alopex too was hesitant. Yet, she also wanted to use this time to bond with everyone. The area was perfect for all of them due to being out in the country with little to no neighbors. Giving the turtles and Muses free range to let their tails hang loose and scales some good sunlight.
Leonardo gave Alopex a stern face, she was unmoved. He won't admit it, but he knew she was right. He'd been moody lately and it was time to fix that. Alopex's eyes bugged out and she let out her wolf whine, making everyone jolt. Apparently Raphael was getting impatient, pulling her back into his clutches by her tail. "I didn't say we were done, did I?" He gruffed, tightening his grip. She said her final words to Leo.
"Just....uhhh.....try to loosen up, Fearless. It ain't easy but..... aaahhh. Just try!" She squeaked as Raph pulled her back to him to continue his love making.
Kenzi and Mikey were getting the idea. Mikey dragging Charlie off to the washroom, while Kenzi went to the cockpit where Donnie and her nanobots were located. Dinah straddled Leo's lap, her cat eyes doing a dance with his sparkling blue eyes. She placed a digit beneath his chin.
"Come on, Fearless. This Kitty needs tamed." Taking her tank off to reveal a rather adorable nude colored bra. He watched her shimmy for him, rolling her body, snaking her fingers through her dreads, enticing him. He just stared, loving how his woman is pleasing him, looking like a frickin' model in the process (which she was). They were still clothed from the waist done, but it felt delicious dry humping in the seat. He started churring, cupping her breasts in his large hands, biting his lower lip.
"That's feels so good, just a little more!" He mouthed to her. The look on her face reminded him of the time they were both in heat. So wild.
"Okay." She smiled when he pressed a button on his armrest leaning his seat back a little bit so they can get more frictions. They quirked their brows at each other as they held each other's hands and kept going.
😏😏😏
Raphael and Alopex were 5 rows up and 4 seats over and away from Leonardo and Dinah. He could not help his cravings as Raph had her on her back, covering her in an onslaught of kisses. He trailed them down to her neck and she let loose.
"Right there, Baby. Aaaahhhh!" She moaned softly. His pout pretty much surrounded the pulse of her neck, she felt him about to bite her when she placed a hand on his lips.
"Whats wrong?" Confused to why she just bopped his mouth shut.
"Chill with the biting. Ma and Splinter are gonna be there and I don't wanna have to use make-up to cova up ya crime!" She laughed at the last part, he smirked. The last thing he wanted was a death glare from the Chief and a smack from Splinter.
"Aight." He sat up, grips her hips and slams her core against his lower plastron, she shook at the vibrations. "I'm gettin' my humps in now, I gotchu later Babe!" He warned.
"I'll be waiting." He leans forward surrounding her with his large form, pressing his chest against her breasts as they made out.
🫢🫢🫢
Donatello was looking over some of the controls, making sure everything was intact and functioning well. Kenzi didn't mind, to her it meant his brain wanted to explore flying air crafts. Especially one she created. Her nanobots did well flying the jet to which he complimented each one.
While Donnie went on his hologram screen ejected from his wrist gear, Kenzi came to his side and ran her hands over his crotch. He gasped, looking at her then at her nanobots driving the plane.
"No hanky panky in the cockpit, Love!" He teases, her caresses intensified.
"Finish up and come to the galley. You look like you need a snack." She winked, feeling his hips roll from her touches. She always had this affect on him, developing a lot of hip action from being with her so many times.
He scrolled the screen from his wrist to check the security system back at home. He's been updating a lot lately so no one could intrude the lair while they were away. He even checked the girl's security system at their bases in New Jersey and New York with Alopex's permission. After confirming the lair and bases were locked tight, he put his screen away and made his way to the galley to tend to his sexy cheetah lady. What he found was not what he expected.
She was leaned against the small table in the corner, sporting a long, Grey tank top, stopping an inch above the knee. She looked him over, using her tail to motion for him to come closer. He adjusted his pants before walking over. He towered over her, taking in her beauty and charm. Her skin so smooth and chewable. Dreadlocks draped over one shoulder, just how he likes it.
"Can I get you anything, sir?" He licked his lips, taking in her lavender vanilla body wash. He traced his hands from her shoulders, down her arms, over her belly, toying with the hem of her tank. He inched his lips towards her ear.
"It's alright. I'll help myself!" He coos, getting down on his knees to meet her dripping core. She had no underwear on whatsoever, wondering if Charlie's antics are rubbing off on her. No matter, he was getting his snack. He licked a streak from her hole to her twitching pearl. He kissed her thigh.
"You smell so good." He dug back into her again, his meat pressing hard against his zipper. She rolled against his face, massaging his scalp.
"Ooooh, Donnie. You're the beautiful one, honey. So sexy, mmm hmm. Ahh!" She was gone as he sped up, eating her out. They were nsync as she rolled and he followed her hips. He snaked his hands to her face, caressing her cheeks with his thumbs. His touch made her drip and he caught it.
'I Love her so much, its crazy!'
🤤🤤🤤
Charlie and Michaelangelo were in the washroom, sucking tongues like Popsicles. The smacking making even them blush. She gasped as Mikey yanked her jacket off of her, kissing and licking her neck. She had other plans, shoving him against the wall, undoing his pants, giving him her hungry eyes.
"I see you, girl. Want some turtle meat?" He whispers, sucking her lower lip.
"Yeah, Baby. I do!" She didn't waste anytime, getting down on her knees, sucking his tip, then sinking his girth down her throat. He grit his teeth in pleasure at the tightness. He watched in lust as she gave him head. Whimpering as her tongue, swirled around his shaft so loosely
"You give the best head, Vixy. I Love you so much!"
She released him with a wet pop, stroking his beef, while groping her chest,"I Love You too, Mikey Baby. Let me hear how much you love it!"
She continued bobbing him, his moans and whimpers making her wet. She wanted him inside her so badly.
As the jet filled with the smell of lust, time proved to be their greatest enemy. All the dry humping, rustling, slamming, and smacking came to an abrupt halt as Kenzi's nanobots came on the loud speaker.
"Attention you sex crazed, face sucking, lust buckets! We have approximately 5 minutes until landing!"
Everything stopped, Raph and Dinah hoisted themselves up, Charlie released Mikey just as he was about to come, Donnie slid his tongue out of Kenzi's cooch and looked up at her.
"Very 'professional.' Am I to understand that you programmed that nanobot with one of your sister's personalities?" Donnie stood up, closing her legs. She sheepishly shrugged.
"Yeah. That's Dinah and Charlie in one. Probably not a wise choice on my part. Alopex is gonna kill me!" She nervously responds.
"I should!" Alopex's voice causing her and Donnie to straighten up. Dismissing her obviously rugged appearance from her most activities.
'These 2 have too much sex for me! Then again.....' Her thoughts interrupted by an equally annoyed Leonardo.
"Don't start! We land soon. Lets get the stuff ready and meet the others." Leonardo growled, not wanting to have to break up another senseless fight over a nanobot's added features.
They all fixed themselves up, the guys adjusting their clothes and gear, the girls fixing their hair and outfits. They were all assigned to gather the stuff they packed for the party. It was stressed to bring extra seating because these turtles are not small whatsoever and they need someplace to sit.
Kenzi gets a call from Chief. Letting them all know her, April, Vern, Casey, and Splinter have already arrived and setting the place up for them.
"Did you bring the BoomBox?" Kenzi asked, flailing her tail about.
"Yes. And those state of the art speakers I've found tucked away in my closet. All thats left is the 8 of you." Kenzi smiled at her mother's happy voice. She enjoys spending time with her and with their family growing at such a rapid pace, this cookout was gonna be a blast. Literally.
The jet landed smoothly, a few feet away from the mansion, the items were ready and all parties came out ready to set up. Charlie saw Splinter, warping into her fox form rushing over to get hugged. She loved him so much, that made Mikey just as happy to be with her. He too ran over to hug Chief and April. Alopex and Dinah were carrying the cooler out of the jet to place it near the seating area. Leonardo and Raphael caught this, agitated. Walking over snatching the cooler away from them.
"What's your malfunction, Leonardo?" Alopex raised her hands up in annoyance.
"Yeah, ya really wanna start with me today? It's the 4th of July, dude!!" Dinah hissed.
The guys looked at each other, chuckling.
"Easy Kitty. We just helpin' out." Raph grumbled, not interested in having petty quarrels with Dinah.
"You are ladies. You shouldn't be carrying heavy loads like that. You got us. We'll take care of the heavy lifting." He says this with a smile, making Dinah sigh.
"Oh Leonardo, you're so dreamy!!!!" Dinah cooed, sounding like a prissy teenage cheerleader with the hots for the quarterback, twirling her tail and twiddling her dreads. Leonardo rolled his eyes, snickering.
"Aww. Look at ya'll bein' gentlemen. Splinter didn't just raise worthy warriors, but fine gentlemen." Her compliment made even Donnie snort as he walked pass with the extra tables. Alopex sneakliy pinched Raph's behind as she ran pass. He mentally promised he would get her back.
"Who says chivalry is dead?" Leo chimes as he entered the pool area and began setting up. They laughed it off and made it to the others. Kenzi instructed her nanobots to scout the area to make sure theres no hunters or animals that may be a threat to the party. They gave a nod, zipping off into the wooded area.
Everyone greeted each other, with Vern being a little too friendly with the girls, putting the turtles in a territorial stage.
"He wouldn't dare! Would he?"
"Nah man. Vern knows we'd rip his wings off! Wannabe Falcon!" Raph and Donnie high three at the notion.
🤨🤨🤨
Everything was set up, everyone was present, there was only one thing remaining.
"Alright. Whose cooking?" Chief asked. Immediately hands went up. Kenzi, Charlie, Mikey, and Casey? Charlie and Kenzi gave each other death glares. April didn't think Casey was capable of cooking let along boiling water.😆
"You can put ya hand down, ain't no way you're cookin,' chick!" Charlie lashed, Leonardo and Donatello sighing on the side to yet another sibling battle. Questioning themselves if they were any better. Or worse.
"Excuse me!!!!! I mastered more than just science and inventions. I cook better than Gordon Ramsay! And that guy sucks!" Kenzi hissed, Casey feeling the sting from that comment.
"Yeah, sure. Like you cooked up that formula you were gonna make us take to get rid of our hay fever!?" Dinah jumped in. The girls bickering was so ridiculous, even Chief felt embarrassed.
"That was a fluke! Besides, who taught you how to cook?" Kenzi clapped at Charlie.
"Who taught the 3 of you how to swim?" Charlie barked, putting all their business out there, April couldn't help but look at Alopex. 'Aww, her younger sister taught her how to swim! Thats so sweet!'
"That's enough! I should've known you would start this. Which is why Splinter and I have decided on who is in charge of what." Chief barged in, ceasing the noise, making everyone wonder what exactly shes getting at.
"There is a total of 13 mouths to feed here. Each of us have different tastes to which we have to accommodate. Which is why we've asked Alopex and Donatello to bring a variety of food before hand for this special occasion. Your assigned dishes are as such." As Splinter went over the groups tasks, Donnie and Kenzi recalled their gifts for Mikey and Alopex. While everyone whined, Donnie pulled Alopex outside to the tortuga truck along with Kenzi and Mikey.
"I created a special gift for you for the occasion. Mikey's is outside too." Donnie chimed, coaxing Alopex to use her tail to cover her eyes. Kenzi had to use her tail to cover Mikey's eyes because he kept wanting to see. They made it to the truck. There was a basement door on the side where the tortuga truck was parked, Mikey's gift was brought up ahead of time, placed in the basement.
Alopex and Mikey's eyes were still covered as their gifts were prepped. Kenzi and Donnie couldn't be anymore proud as they had them look.
Alopex face sunk as Donnie showcased a skeet shooting machine. He's been studying her thoroughly and got a few ideas from Kenzi, this piqued Alopex's interest. Punching her fist in the air when she remembered to bring her good guns. Mikey was acting out when he seen the gift Kenzi made for him. A very large pizza making oven for outdoor use. He was looking it over, hooting at the many features. What he loved most was that he can make any size pizza he wanted. In his and his brother's case, XXL pizzas.
"Sis! You got this for me? This is insane! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!" He cheered, lifting Kenzi off the ground and twirling her around in excitement. She giggled, happy Mikey loved his gift. As she explained how she created it, Alopex placed a hand on Donnie's shoulder after he set up the skeet shooting machine.
"This is an amazing surprise. I didn't take you to be the type to go to such lengths for an occasion." She teases, tickling his snout with her tail.
"You're related to the woman I love. That makes you my sister, too. Therefore, I love you as much as I love her, Dinah, and Charlie. You're family." The way he said it was unlike what hes ever spoke to her, impressed with how far hes come with expressing himself. He explained how he found it in the dump in great condition, picked it up and ticketed with it until it was perfected. She wasn't fazed with him getting it from the garbage because Charlie and Kenzi dumpster dive all the time. Alopex turned towards him. "Thank you, Donnie. I love my gift and I'll be utilizing it thoroughly." He smiled.
"We better get back in before Charlie eats all the food." Kenzi announces. They all rush back into the house.
"What do you think Mikey will do?" Donnie muttered, imagining Mikey and Casey competing in an eating contest.
🪟🪟🪟
With the food prepped and ready to grill, boombox and extra tables set up, grill ready, outdoor games ready, music bumping, it was time to party. Leonardo, Casey, Vern and 3 of Kenzi's humanized nanobots played with the frisby outside the fence. Alopex, Charlie, and Kenzi along with some more nanobots had a shoot off with the skeet shooter. After wards a few of the ladies went inside the mansion getting dressed for the pool and doing some indoor cooking while Mikey, Splinter, and Dinah worked the grill. Mikey was told to save the pizza oven for later.
"Wow Master Splinter, I didn't know you could cook! You grilled that shark to perfection, I can't wait to try it!" Dinah chimed, mouth watering at the sight of the juicy shark meat.
"Yeah, Dads an awesome cook. His specialty is seafood." Mikey nudges Dinah's shoulder. Given shes half feline, she'd love his father's cooking.
Splinter appreciated the compliment and the opportunity to serve others besides his sons. "Thank You. I've been inspired by you ladies along with an animated movie about a French rat who also cooks."
Chief and Dinah looked at one another and smiled. Thinking simultaneously,'Ratatouille.' Dinah also thought he wasn't really the type to watch animations.
'Well, Anyone can cook. Imagine if he watched Soul Food. Or Man Vs Food.'
Raphael and Donatello were in the tartuga truck, collecting the extras along with Alopex's shot guns and Charlie's revolver to up the ante for the skeet shooting contest. This gave them a chance to bond a little.
"How's it goin' wit' you and Kenzi?" Raph was gathering Alopex ammo box she asked them to keep in their truck temporarily.
"Great. It's like we're getting closer and closer by the day. I'm starting to believe I can't be without her." He admits, adjusting some wires in the ceiling. Raph was unplussed by his young brother's forwardness. He was always the nerd who seemed married to his work. Since he met Kenzi, almost everything with him changed. Raphael was happy for him.
"What about you and Alopex?" Raph chuckled at the question, wondering if hes serious. 'You should already know!'
"Smooth like lotion, man. Shes just......not what I was expectin,' ya know."
Donatello knew right away he asked the wrong question. He knew as well as anybody how well it's going with him and Alopex. Every now and then, they talk about the girls. They've experienced so much together. This party has the potential of being on the top of the list. Donnie pat him on the shoulder.
"We're some lucky turtles." They both agreed, discussing tonights events and a surprise coming later tonight. They gathered the items and headed back to the pool area.
Meanwhile the girls were giggling and chatting it up themselves. Enjoying the spacious mansion with a huge living room with a couch, love seat, flat screen TV with the big kitchen right there where they can see everything. Complete open concept.
"I am so glad we're finally doing this. Thank You, ladies." April says, hugging Kenzi and Alopex.
"We should be thanking you. Allowing us to take your gorgeous family to this whole new world outside of New York." Kenzi says, spinning April around.
"Yeah, we know how difficult it was to bring Splinter along to these types of outings at his age. Our mom is no different." Alopex explains, strapping her swimsuit on.
"The best part: He's grilling!!!!! I'm dying to eat his dishes." Kenzi cheers dramatically, the girls couldn't agree more. Even April was amazed with Splinter's skill. He did have to feed 4 growing turtles.
"Can't wait til it gets dark. Thats when things get crazy." Charlie chimed, dancing on the couch in a lewd manner. Alopex coaxing her to get down and put her swimsuit on. April and Kenzi looked around the kitchen at the food and started wondering.
"Wifey 3, do you think we made too much? I mean, its 13 of us." April cringed at the thought of eating all that food, also noticing the 2 large bowls of potato salad. Kenzi reassured her of one detail,"We got 4 large turtles, one of them being a complete food fanatic. I'm sure we can manage."
Charlie was feeling antsy so she runs upstairs to one of the rooms to get a good view of Mikey keeping a good eye on the food. She saw Chief, Dinah, Vern, Casey, and Leonardo were being entertained by Splinters tricks while cooking at the grill. The scene could make a grown man cry. She saw Mikey taking a break and called his cell. He answers.
Michaelangelo: Hey Babe. You okay?
Charlie: Yeah, I'm okay. I'm in one of the windows. Check this out!
He finds the window she was standing in and watched in complete amusement as Charlie pulled the top of her swimsuit down, flashing her boobs in the window for Mikey to see. Luckily no one saw her as they were distracted by Splinter's spatula performance.
Charlie: (laughter)
Michaelangelo: So Beautiful!!!!
"What's beautiful?" Donnie asked, walking towards Mikey. Charlie quickly used her invisibility and went back downstairs to the others. Mikey hung up the phone.
"Uhh......The pizza oven, man. Can't wait to use it later. And its all mine! Hehe!" He laughed it off. He didn't like lying, but he wasn't gonna tell his brother his girl just flashed him.
Vern started talking up how he can't wait to see the girls in their swimsuits. Saying how it's an honor to be out in such an amazing area. Then he suggested checking on the girls to which Raphael, grabbed his shoulder sitting him right down on the couch.
"Naw, we got dis, Falcon. Master Splinter may need an extra set of hands to carry the food in." Raphael gruffed, Leo motioning for his brothers to follow. One would think Vern would get the message yet he continues to flirt with the girls.
Dinah followed suit so she could change into her swimwear and assist with the other cooking. Splinter and Mikey were at the grill finishing up, letting them all know they'll bring the food in when hes finished.
Kenzi's nanobots were walking about the perimeter. She gave them instructions to help Splinter and Mikey bring the food in when their done.
The guys went into the house and were met with the sexiest sight they've ever seen.
Kenzi was sitting on the couch in her pretty yellow bikini, purple shawl, with white gladiator sandals. Charlie just came downstairs wearing her magenta onesie, large sun hat, orange flip flops. Alopex was in the kitchen preparing the dishes in her green bikini sporting a red shawl, and black shades, Raphael thinking about changing the menu when she lowered them to wink at him. Dinah gave Leonardo a wink before retreating upstairs to change.
Raphael was getting tempted,"Need some help there, Babe?"
Charlie caught the vibe, walked over to the kitchen, and swiftly pulled out a meat cleaver. "Come into this kitchen and I will chop you up!"
"Are all chicks this aggressive in da kitchen?" Raph quips, backing away from the Wild Thing of the group.
"Easy sis, your Wild Side is showing." Donnie warned.
"Does it look pretty?" She asked, making a sultry face.
"No. Now put that thing down before you have another slip!" Alopex growls, snatching the large blade out of her sister's clutches.
It was an amazing and hilarious time as they all talked and laughed. Charlie warping into her fox form, pouncing on Leonardo and Raphael. Mikey trying to sneak bites from the dishes laid out on the counter, getting swatted by Kenzi who was finishing the rest of the food. Chief keeping an eye on Splinter, Mikey, Vern, and Casey. April giving herself a tour of the mansion. Then, of all things to happen. The girls get into it again.
"DON'T PUT ALL THAT SALT IN THAT POTATO SALAD!!!!!" Alopex yelled. Chief letting out an audible exhale to her daughter's drama. 'So it begins. Quarrel City!'
"It's Pink Himalayan Salt. It's good for you!" Kenzi clapped, adding another teaspoon.
"Here they go again! Get married already!!!" Raphael jumped in, Dinah was just coming downstairs wearing her black and blue bikini, tying her dreads up, sporting her cute high heels, rolling her eyes at the drama between her sisters.
'She looks good in heels.' Leonardo mind betraying him once again as he took in Dinah's style.
"You always tryin' to one up on me sis! What's up wit, dat?" Kenzi hissed.
"One up on who? Ain't no competition!" Alopex retorted.
"Wifey 1 and Wifey 3, Stop It!" April says, she hated it when the girls fought. And its over food! Donnie and Leonardo were agitated that the girls were bickering, hoping they stopped before Splinter comes in. Mikey and Charlie were having a field day over the quarrel.
"Whatever. I look betta than you anyway!" Kenzi started.
"Off to the races!" Donnie murmured, Dinah and Chief shaking their heads.
"The heck you don't!" Alopex lashed back.
"I cook betta than you!"
"The heck you can't!"
"My butt looks betta than yours!" Kenzi pretty much sang that part.
When she said that Alopex and Dinah gave a look. Mentally agreeing to stop watching those Friday movies so much. It's getting to all their heads.
Raphael and Donatello couldn't help but look at the girl's behinds and wonder. 'Girls really compete over that?'
"Kenzi! Alopex! Quit it already!" Leonardo barked, trying to end it now rather than hear the petty name-calling session.
"You heard him, thats enough!!!! Theres plenty of food here for everyone. Need I list the menu?" Chief asked, halting the girls ridiculous back and forth.
"Lets see, theres macaroni salad, potato salad, seafood salad, barbecue baked beans." Mikey started off.
"Beef, turkey, and even chicken sausages, collard greens, grilled chicken, corn on the cob." Alopex joined. Forgetting the quarrel with Kenzi.
"Hot dogs, burgers, grilled shark, lemon pepper shrimp, deviled eggs, baked macaroni & cheese." Raphael jumped in, liking the sound of the menu items.
Leonardo was impressed yet stunned. 'People really go all out for these holidays?'
"The drink selection is pretty sweet. Unsweetened Ice Tea, Strawberry Mango Tea, Lemonade, and some Sparkling water." Donnie picked up a pitcher filled with tea.
"I made the tea and lemonade myself." Chief says, feeling proud of herself.
"And the dessert was made ahead of time by the dessert queen herself." Charlie chimed in, pointing at herself.
"I can't wait to try your desserts!" Mikey quirked a brow while Vern rolled his eyes.
"We have to wait for Master Splinter. He's still working the grill." Donnie says adjusting his glasses. Then Splinter walks in with a platter of well seasoned and well cooked meat, while 2 of Kenzi's nanobots carried the rest.
"I must say I enjoyed cooking this fine meal. I pray it is to your liking." He says calmly as he passed the platter off to Leonardo to put with the rest of the buffet. Vern and Casey helped carry a platter, everybody cheering for the main course filing the open concept with its delicious aroma.
"By the way it smells, theres no doubt we gonna have seconds! That shark meat and shrimp is mine!" Dinah giggled, high fiving Mikey and Raph.
"Are we ready to eat? I am starving and I wanna try that shark meat and chicken sausage too." April has been waiting for this long enough. The guys rushed up, but Leonardo stopped them all in their tracks.
"Move, Fearless. I'm hungry too!" Raphael's snout was pretty much kissing Leo's. Casey and Vern backing away in case the oversized terrapins start fighting. Again.
"Why don't we behave like gentlemen and let the ladies go up first!" He suggested, the guys became sheepish in an instant. The women smiled at his chivalry. Splinter coaxed the ladies to go up to fill their plates.
'I get a full view anyway.' Raphael's thoughts drifting off to pleasure town as he watched Alopex go up and collect her food. All the guys were getting an eye full of women wearing their swimsuits. Dinah and Alopex whispering amongst themselves.
"You ready for tonight?" Alopex bumped Dinah's shoulder.
"You bet I am! Can't wait to see the looks on their faces. This could be their first huge party yet!" Dinah silently cheered, cutting a big slice of shark meat for herself.
"Easy, don't go gettin' carried away. This is for them." Alopex reminded, Dinah smiled at her sister, nodding she understood. She looked back at Leonardo talking with the guys. He caught her staring as she blew a kiss his way. He could blush at her flirting.
After everyone got their meal, they sat at the dining table and conversed. It was a beautiful moment as they goofed off, shared stories, Chief embarrassing the girls with baby stories, Splinter doing the same, Casey, Vern, Mikey, and Raph eating like it's a contest. The room was filled with love and fun. April looked around at everyone's smiles. Fond with how much her family has grown, almost shedding a tear thinking about her father. Imagining how he'd react to this beautiful scene before her. Splinter passed her a plate of corn.
"Would you like some more, April?" His smile warming her heart, she nods taking a corn on the cob, thanking Splinter. The fun kept going and so did the drama as Dinah, Mikey, Kenzi, and Raph plunged their forks into a large piece of grilled chicken.
🙄🙄🙄
"You really wanna do this, bro?" Mikey asked, the bass in his voice caught everyone's attention.
"Here and now, man!" Raph grunted. Alopex and Charlie stunned with their mates behavior, then they had to look at themselves.
'We fight over food too!'
"Michaelangelo!" Dinah's voice rang out. He knew when she said his full name, she was serious. "Sweety, you had 12 hot dogs, 5 burgers, a bowl of every salad on that counter, 4 corn on the cob, half a pan of baked mac & cheese, a handful of shrimp, 10 deviled eggs, and 2 large pieces of shark meat."
"Yeah, some of it was off my plate!" Donnie whined.
Leo made a disgusted look. Yeah, their bodies can handle a lot but they still needed to pace themselves.
"I can't help my stomach, sis. Ninjas gotta eat too!" Mikey defended himself, refusing to let go of the grilled bird.
"Mikey, your stomach is a bottomless pit!" Dinah snapped her fingers at him.
"Ya'll might as well give it up! This is the best grilled chicken I've ever tasted and I ain't sharin!'" Kenzi declared, causing Dinah to hiss at her.
Donnie couldn't help but think how stupid they're acting. He was happy everyone appreciated Dinah, Mikey, and Splinter's cooking but to fight over food was barbaric.
"You mustn't fight over food!" Splinter snapped, equally annoyed. He never imagined his cooking skills would be appreciated in such an aggressive manner, but this was child's play.
"Pass the popcorn, this is getting too good. Let's get ready to rumble!" Casey hooted, not really helping the situation. Alopex decided to end it in her own way. She warped into her wolf form, swiftly snatched the white meat and devoured it in an instant. Chief hates it when she does that because shes too big and could've made a mess.
"There you go! There's plenty of hot dogs, burgers and other food items left. Eat that! Besides, us ladies have a special treat for you to try anyway!" She grinned a goofy grin, April giving her a wink.
"It betta be worth it. What is it!?" Raphael growled, Alopex rolling her eyes at his attitude.
"Boy don't get smart with me! There's more to come so save your energy!" April laughed at Alopex putting Raph in his place, Vern and Casey snickered, then stopped when Raph gave them a death glare.
Alopex passes out hot dogs for the guys to try. They were confused.
"Its just a hot dog. Mikey already ate a dozen of these!" The girls looked Donatello over and smirked, not knowing their setting the notion for the days events.
"Just try it. Then after, we go outside." Dinah suggests.
"Well, we'll work all this food off in some good cardio. Chew down, guys." Leo says scarfing down the 'hot dog.' The guys started eating theirs. Mikey just about inhaled his. Chief and April wondering if he even chewed it first.
"Not bad. I'd give it a 10 outta 10." Leonardo complimented.
"Yeah. It tastes different than the others. More earthy.' Donnie chimes, Kenzi wiping his mouth with a napkin, making him freeze. Chief thought the gesture was adorable.
"My compliments to the Chief. Perfecto! I'd go for another." Mikey says, asking if he could try one more.
"It was aight. Not somethin' I would eat everyday, but it was cool." Raphael says, wiping his mouth.
The girls started snickering. Alopex covered her mouth with her hand, Charlie and April laughed in each other's shoulders, while Kenzi and Dinah backed away slowly from the turtles. Vern, Casey, Splinter, and Chief knew what was up and just grinned.
"Girls, you've really done it now!" Chief scolded, the grin still plastered on her face.
"Did what!!!????" Donnie shrieked.
The ladies just laughed out loud. They were rolling. Charlie laughed so hard her fox sounds were coming out, which made the girls laugh even harder.
"What is this? Punk'd? What'd you have us eat, ya skirts!!??" Raphael's annoyance was on full display, looking directly at Dinah.
"Don't give me that look!" She hissed, Leonardo rolling his eyes to yet another round of drama. While good ol' Mikey just standing there unbothered.
"First off, I don't like skirts and you know that Raph!" Alopex sassed,"Second, those hot dogs weren't beef, much less pork or turkey."
"What were they made of?" Leonardo gravely asked, making even Vern shiver and back away. April could not stop laughing as her and Charlie hugged each other.
"You're laughing at us and not talking! Did you poison us?" Donnie whined.
"Poison!!?? That's not even my department, Babe! No it's something else." Kenzi couldn't stop snickering for the life of her and neither could the other ladies. Splinter sighed.
"Those 'hot dogs' were actually carrots." Splinter went right in for it. The entire mansion shook of laughter. While the turtles just looked at one another.
"Carrot Hot Dogs? Really?" Leo says, glaring daggers at Dinah and April laughing at their reactions.
"You got me eatin' healthy!? I oughta drag ya all ova dis place by ya tails!" Raph lashed, knowing Dinah was the other party behind the grill.
"Don't yell at me! I may have prepped it, but Mikey is the one who grilled it and he didn't even notice!" The girls cackled harder. Alopex and April were on the floor, Kenzi's face was against the wall, while Dinah and Charlie leaned on one another.
The turtle's faces were comical. Donnie took a moment to think. 'Well, we're considered omnivorous so its not a big deal!'
Mikey was stunned he didn't notice from the look and the taste. He just wolfed it down like it was a Thanksgiving dinner. Leonardo found it kind of amusing but not that amusing. Raph was heated. How dare they get him to eat healthy. He don't care what he should be eating, he wanted meat! He was about to charge for the girls, when Leonardo calmy stopped him.
"You had your fun. Now it's our turn!" He nonchalantly say. His calm demeanor creeping Kenzi out a little.
"If you wanna play, take it outside! All of you!" Chief raised her voice at them as if they were children.
"I've gone over the perimeter. The wooded area is a big as 3 football fields. We'll give you a 10 second headstart to use your speeds to get as far away from us as you can." Donnie says while looking over the perimeter of the forest behind the mansion, from his hologram screen. 10 seconds runs out, they cannot use their abilities to evade the turtles. They have to stay completely human. The girls play this game with the turtles all the time.
"You're bluffin'!" Alopex challenged.
Raph huffed, starting the countdown. "9!"
"8!"
"7!"
"Book it ladies!!!" Vern shouted.
All that was heard in the middle of nowhere, was the sound of the girls screaming as they bolted out of the house headed towards the woods. Raphael chuckled.
"I love it when they scream! Gives me motivation!" He rolls his shoulders, ready to go on the hunt.
"Just don't be too rough with them, it'll be getting dark soon and we all have to be by the pool for your surprises!" Chief warns, shaking her index finger at the turtles.
"Fair enough. This is more like hide and seek. They're not allowed to use their abilities, except maybe invisiblity to better challenge us." Leonardo says.
"Uh guys. 2 seconds!" Mikey reminds them. Coaxing the guys to bolt out of the mansion after the girls. The chase was on.
The girls scattered throughout the forest, looking for a hiding spot. All was going according to plan. What they didn't realize was that the turtles had something up their sleeves as well. Chief, Vern, Splinter, Casey, and April shook their heads yet smiling.
'Let the games begin!' Splinter thought.
🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️
They huffed and puffed, running for dear life from their agitated scaly lovers. Adrenaline started running as soon as their speed went to the level of an ordinary human. The turtles were quick, so the girls had to act fast before they arrived.
"We have 2 minutes to get into positions." Kenzi reminded, catching a glimpse of the guys speeding through the landscape to get to them.
"Ya'll know what to do! Ready, Set, Scatter!" Alopex ordered, the girls immediately headed to their selected spots.
The girls got into their positions, each had a box containing some heavy yet appropriate artillery for this thrilling occasion. Suddenly their walkies start to go off, they answered. It was the turtles giving them a reminder to their game.
"We forgot to mention, this time if Kenzi is captured, all of you have to surrender. Immediately!" Leonardo's voice vibrated through their bellies. Kenzi swallowed hard. Charlie and Dinah snickered.
'Crap!!!'
"Understood. Happy hunting!" Alopex says, giving a salute before hanging up. She sighed, relieved she isn't the main target. Kenzi is quick on her feet, with and without her abilities, so this may prove to be an interesting game.
The turtles arrived in the forest, studying their surroundings. It was quiet for the most part. Leonardo looked around, trees, bushes, boulders, and little critters running about. He gave the guys a signal and they scattered.
"I'm gonna get you Vixy. I hope your ready!" Mikey shouted for all the girls to hear. Charlie giggled at Mikey's enthusiasm, feeling sorry she has to do him and his brothers dirty.
The turtles ran through the woods, using their skills as ninjas to silently locate their targets. Leonardo taking a few notes from Alopex hunting methods, using all his senses to locate the girls. Sure enough, he succeeded in locating the first victim: Charlie!
"Looks like I got ya, little sis." He chimes, slowly stalking towards her, as she slowly backed away. She chuckled, puzzling him. "Whats so funny?"
She didn't answer, swiftly using her tail to throw loaded water balloons at him. He dodged the first few but got hit directly in the face, briefly throwing him off. She retreats into the woods to another spot.
"Gotcha! Hahahahaha!!!!!" She cackled, running deeper and deeper into the woods. Leonardo wiped his face and growled, getting his brothers on the walkie.
"This is war, fellas. Break out the big guns!" He received coordinates from Donnie to an area where the turtles kept their surprise for the girls.
After sending the coordinates, Donnie continued the hunt. He hears a growl coming from behind him. He knew that growl, slowly turning around and was met by a ferocious Alopex. Even in human form she was feral. Shes used to being in the woods, hunting prey so for him to try to catch her was more of a joke to her. She gave him the eye and he shuddered.
"I'm supposed to be catching you!" When she grinned, her fangs were showing full tilt. Donnie gulped audibly. Alopex sometimes picks on him when he annoys her, but today she decided on a more playful approach.
"I was savin' this for Mikey but I guess it doesn't matter." She pulls out a can of some sort.
"Whats that stuff!!??" He asked. She tilted her head, he squinted. She directed the can towards him. While he had other plans.
🫣🫣🫣
Raphael was blindly running about trying to find one of the girls. He loved this game, he just didn't wanna find Dinah. The whole point of the game was to find and capture them all one by one or find the main target, forcing the others to surrender. He heard the warning from Leonardo, he also heard a loud howl echo through the trees.
"Sounds like Donnie used that slime gun he was workin' on. Got her!"
"Yeah and I got you!!!" The last voice he wanted to hear came pouncing from behind him. He dodged as she landed a few feet away, hissing.
"I'm not inta bein' da hunted. Come quietly, little kitty!" He teased, curling his finger at her. Dinah stuck her tongue out at him and started throwing shade at him. Again.
"BREAK YOSELF TURTLE!!!!" She lashed, that tore it for him as they both engaging in hand to hand combat. She made it clear she wasn't going down without a fight to which he was down with so long as she didn't scratch him too badly. She used her tail to trip him, bolting into the woods. He got up and went the opposite direction to retrieve his other weapon.
"I'll find ya! One of ya!" He warned.
Kenzi's instincts were getting to her again. The wide open spaces were her other special oasis. She pranced about like a Doe with her calf, utilizing her acrobatic skills, flipping and flopping about. She got careless letting her guard down, Michaelangelo managed to grab his other weapon, having it at the ready. He chuckled as he saw Kenzi in the distance, dancing about. He had mad respect for her moves and flexibility. Happy Donatello found someone who could put up with his tech savvy brain longer than he can. Mikey stayed silent, then she froze. Her tail twitched as she looked around. She sensed a presence, bringing her guard back up.
He watched her carefully. She stayed completely still. It was as though they could feel the Earth turning beneath their feet. The smell of leaves decaying on the ground. Bird's wings flapping above the trees. Then theres the sound of Mikey's stomach after eating so much of those different salads along with those barbequed baked beans.
'Oh man. Not now! Not Now! I'm close to catching her!' Every fiber in his body fighting against the urge. Sweat beaded on his forehead, the grip on his weapon wavering as he struggled to control his body. Kenzi was about to bounce when she heard a loud rumble. Her faced curled in disgust. Knowing exactly who it was.
"You are so dirty, Mikey!!! I hope you learned your lesson!" Kenzi shouted, running in the direction away from Mikey. He smacked his forehead and began to give chase. It was the funniest chase she had ever been in because the entire time, Mikey kept cutting the cheese. Kenzi just kept laughing.
"Gimme a break, sis. The food was too good!" He whined, cutting it everytime he ran. She faded into invisibility and got on her walkie to warn the girls.
"These guys are loaded, ladies! Bring your A-Game!"
"Thanks for the warning, sis! We already figured that out!" Alopex yelled, trying to remove the elastic slime Donnie threw at her. "Leo got me on the run! He got me on the run!" Charlie ranted, pouncing off trees trying to avoid capture.
Needless to say, the turtles were prepared for this. Donnie created an elastic slime shooting gun. Mikey had a high powered water pistol. Raphael a large high powered water gun, while Leo had nothing but his own skills. The girls found out the hard way that these turtles mean business.
After an hour of running around, hiding in trees, throwing stuff at each other, Kenzi's brief breakdown from getting her hair, and Alopex ticked off with the guys making them run around in their swimsuits, the guys met in a further part of the woods and devised a plan.
"Geez, Donnie how ya let dat happen to ya?" Raph picked at Donatello whose shell and gear were covered in silly string thanks to Alopex sneak attack.
"I'm not obliged to answer! We gotta get back soon for the surprise, guys."
"I may have an idea that might work but one of you has to be the bait!" Leonardo suggested
"Whose it gonna be?" Raphael wanted to know while he still had some sanity left over from this game. Leonardo smirked.
🤪🤪🤪
The girls posted up in the trees overlooking where the turtles could be. They laughed at how intense the game has been, impressed with the turtle's enhancing skills on the field.
"What a blast. I could go for days." Dinah suggested, checking her nails after scratching Raphael a few times. Alopex was entertained, but still heated that Donnie shot her with that slime gun and he had to aim for her tail. 'This stuff better come out!' She mumbled, picking it out piece by piece. Alopex gets a call. She sees it's from Raphael and puts him on speaker.
"Sup babe. Have we worn you cuties down?" Alopex teases, the girls start snickering.
"Yeah. Yinz giving up already?"Charlie chimes in, The laughter intensifies, the turtles shook their heads. Raphael looked to Leonardo and scoffed.
'Nuts to ya plan, Fearless. I gotta betta one!'
"Funny. I thought Dinah would put up a bigger fight." Raph finally responds, stopping Dinah's laughter quickly, she snatches the phone from Alopex with her panther tail.
"I'm sorry. I think the signal is bad. You wanna run that by me again, Red!?" He could hear her getting worked up. Donnie and Mikey rolled their eyes with the comment Raphael made towards Dinah. Even Leonardo didn't care for it, but they had to draw the game to a close.
"I ain't studda! Ya slippin' sis. I expected betta!" He continued, further ticking Dinah off. Kenzi laughed at her sister getting worked up over Raphael's lousy teasing.
"You know what hes doin' right? You're not really gonna......" Kenzi silenced by Dinah's hissing.
"Stay outta this, Kenzi!" She lashed,"You comin' at my fightin' style, bro?" She turned her attention back to Raphael. Mikey managed to stifle his laughter at the 2 quarreling. Donnie didn't dare go that far dissing the girls especially when it comes to combat styles.
"Whatcha gonna do bout it, Cat!?" Her temper flared stronger than Kenzi's breakdown from getting her hair wet.
"THAT'S IT! YOU'RE GONNA GET YOURS YOU BUBBLE BUTT, SHELLBACKED, BISCUIT HEADED SACK OF........." Dinah tossed Alopex the phone and immediately went on the hunt. She knew what would happen but she didn't care, she wanted to prove she could fight just as good as her sisters. The girls followed her, trying to coax her to settle down. The guys laughed at Raphael after hearing Dinah's lengthy insult towards him.
'Bubble Butt? Really?'
The guys heard her roaring, as did the others back at the mansion, giving away their location. However, Dinah already picked up their scent, headed to their location. Raphael chuckled as he hung up the phone and waited for the plan to work. Leonardo hates it when Dinah gets this mad, he told Raph to talk them into giving up, not provoke them.
"I'm not prying her off of you when she gets here!" Leonardo made it clear that Raphael went too far dissing his girl.
"Shes comin' ain't she? Along wit the rest of em! We won dis game!" He shrugged, in his mind hes just doing the sibling thing, rubbing Dinah the wrong way, bringing out her true potential. Donnie heard the rustling coming towards them. Doing his own countdown.
"4, 3, 2, 1, aaaannnnd......" A load shriek was heard, Raphael sunk into his shell as Dinah tackles him to the ground in her panther form.
"No fair! She used her animal form!" Mikey whined, pointing at Dinah as she scratched at Raphael's shell. Mindful to control her claws strength against his plastron. Charlie wanted in on the action and pummeled Raph too.
Alopex and Kenzi showed up on the scene, falling into their trap. Donnie used one of his strong cables to subdue Alopex, she fell to the ground with a grunt.
"You realize I can destroy these in an instant, right?" She growled, blowing leaves out of her face.
"Yes. But you can also surrender!" Donatello's voice coming from the side as he and Mikey held Kenzi by the arms. Alopex shook her head and shouted at Charlie and Dinah who still had Raph on the ground, scratching at his shell.
"Everyone stop! Dinah. Charlie. LET HIM GO!"
They calmed down to see Kenzi squirming in Donnie and Mikey's clutches. They warped back into human form and backed away. Raphael reappearing and getting back on his feet.
"Checkmate. Ya gonna surrender or are we gonna go for her feet!?" Mikey says, grabbing Kenzi's feet ready to tickle her.
"Not my feet! Ahhh. Sis surrender already!" Kenzi cried out with a laugh.
Alopex snapped out of Donnie's cables and stood up. She gave the sign for the girls to settle down and call it quits.
"Aight fellas, ya got us. We gotta get goin' anyway. Darkness is fallin' and we still got a surprise for all of you." She winks at the guys.
"Let's get going then. All that hunting got me hungry again." No sooner did Mikey say those words, he started farting again.
"Gross!!!"
"What? I'm makin' room!"
"I'm out! Race ya'll back to the mansion!" Dinah chimed, nodding at Raph to follow.
"HE'S FRICKIN' FARTING AGAIN!" Alopex and Kenzi shouted and ran off.
Leonardo tossed Charlie over his shoulder and ran while she yelled out to Mikey,"Better out than in, Babe. Cut that Cheese!!!" She encouraged. They all ran back to the mansion, giggling on the way back.
🤣🤣🤣
They got back to see everyone outside enjoying the pool area. Chief and Splinter relaxed on the couch while April and Casey played in the pool. Vern was busy flirting with Kenzi's female nanobots at the tables. Chief waved at them all.
"I see you all had some fun. You almost ready?" She asked the girls.
"We are. Did you guys set that up while we were out there?" Alopex whispered the last part so the turtles couldn't hear. Chief gave a nod and smiled. Mikey begged to use his pizza oven to which he was granted permission. Kenzi excused herself to go into the mansion and put her haircap on. She refused to allow the guys to get her hair wet again. Donnie waited a few minutes, then followed her in.
She runs up stairs to the room she and Donnie selected, pulling her good hair cap out to put on her head. She was having a bit of trouble since her dreadlocks were so long. Donnie quietly came to her side, offering her his assistance, she accepts. She loved it when he helped her with her dreads. He was always gentle with them. As he helped her put her locs in her cap, he was fascinated with the quality of the cap. It felt durable and thick. It was a pretty blush color that felt like silk.
"Wow, I really like this on you. Where did you get it?" She smiled at his curiosity.
"I got this from You Go Natural website or YGN. They sell hair caps, bonnets, headwraps, even swim caps built with a durable fabric to keep natural hair nice and beautiful. They were on Shark Tank and got a deal from Mark Cuban himself! " She explains this while Donnie tucks the rest of her hair into the cap. A product that was on Shark Tank was on her head!
"You look so mesmerizing." He coos, kissing her neck. She melts into his long, strong arms. She felt an electric pulse run through her as Donnie caressed her body. They were both facing the mirror as his plastron kissed her back, slowly humping her as she reached up and stroked his cheek. Their desires growing as they watched in the mirror how much they love each other. Her mind immediately going to the surprise. She turns and taps her finger on his snout.
"I want you to bone me into the mattress, but we gotta get back to the others." She says, crushing his dreams. He loved it when she talk dirty like that.
She walks towards the door, but is grabbed by the wrist by her horny lover. His eyes were dark, his hazel color nowhere in sight. The game had him riled up and he needed release.
"But......I'm already......." He whines. She looks down to see the bulge pressing against his swim trunks.
"You are so desperate. Alright, let Kenzi-Kat relieve that for you. Sit on the bed and relax." She had him sit on the bed, undid his shorts, revealing the long thickness that makes her screams. It twitched and pulsed at her blowing on him.
"This sausage is my favorite." She purrs, licking Donnie's needy rod from base to tip, circling his tip with her tongue, teasing. His hips bucked.
"Kenzi, please. Please." He begged. This was a once in a while thing, showing how much he needed her. She showed mercy sinking his erection down her throat and started bobbing. "Yes, Kenzi. Keep going!" He came undone as he watched her suck him off. She moaned around him, making him whimper.
She loved the noises he made. His face made her drip through her swimsuit. He placed his hands gently on her head, his toes curled as she went deeper. He was getting close. "Almost. Almost.....Almost There!" He grunted, throwing his head back. She grasped his thigh with one hand, his base with the other, ready to take his release. When he came, it was so cute she could cry. He jolted his hips, giving her his sticky cum as he complimented her mouth and skills. She swallowed hard as he unloaded, sucking him dry. He was so tender he had to tap her cheek so she could slow down. She looked up at him, slowly releasing his meat. She kissed the tip.
"Feel better?" She asked, wiping a stray drop from her lips, savoring it.
"Yeah. For now. Please let me give it to you later. Please." He kept begging, it was almost too much.
"Yes, Baby. It'll be hot and ready for you." She shimmied for him. He grabs her by the back of her neck bringing her in for a luscious kiss. He didn't care if she had his nut on her tongue, he just wanted to savor her. Kenzi had to pump the breaks so they could get back to the others.
😜😜😜
Chief gathered everyone for THE DANCE to which the guys tried to protest but were shoved into it with the help of April and the rest of the girls. The guys had more moves outside of their ninja training than they gave themselves credit for. Dinah coaxed Splinter to try. Needless to say, the old rat wiped the floor with each of them.
The party was lit as Mikey utilized his new pizza oven, the music was bumping all over the place. Raphael, Alopex, and Charlie played in the pool with Charlie riding his shell in her fox form. April, Dinah, Leonardo, and Splinter played croquet. Donnie, Kenzi, Vern, Casey, and Chief Vincent played Spades at the table.
Alopex broke away for a moment to collect the watermelon she forgot to cut. She enlisted the help of Leonardo. They bonded well as she used her strength to toss a watermelon in the air while he utilizes his blade handling skills and leg strength to cut them just right for everyone to share. They shook hands at their teamwork. Of course Raphael and Michaelangelo got into a seed spitting fight.
The fun kept going with Kenzi & Charlie challenging Raphael & Leonardo to a beatbox battle. Dinah and Alopex engaged in their own shoot off with the skeet shooter. Mikey danced with Alopex and Chief danced with Donnie. She looked around at everyone, fond they managed to bring this all together in a beautiful way.
Kenzi gathered a few of her nanobots to bring out the desserts for the evening. Red Velvet cake, Pound cake, Banana pudding, and Charlie's famous Peach Cobbler. Everyone collected their desserts, taking their seats for the big surprise. Mikey passed out the pizza, non-alcoholic drinks were served, the stars scattered throughout the night sky. April was given a microphone by Kenzi.
"I have to say this was the best time I've ever had in a while. It means a lot that I get to spend it with all of you." She spoke, Mikey almost at the brink of tears. "The ones I think we all should thank are the lovely ladies who've become a special addition to the family. Lets raise our glasses to my lovely wives, The Muses!" Everyone clapped, raising their cups up to the ladies who stood on the opposite side of the pool, taking their bows.
April hugs Alopex and the others, passing her the mic. "Boy do we have a special treat for you. Don't we ladies?" They nodded, giving their lovers a look they'll never forget, Kenzi summoning 5 of her humanoid nanobots, and Alopex coaxing April to join them (the turtles not knowing she too was in on the surprise). Fingers snapped, bodies rocked, and the performance began with a smooth step dance performance that blew everyone away. Even Splinter found amusement in the girl's talents. Mikey almost went up to join them as they rocked around the pool with the nanobots as back-up dancers. Their family audience cheered them on, hooted and clapped as if they were at the Super Bowl.
Charlie gave Mikey and Leonardo a look. A look Chief has put up with many times during her wild episodes. Charlie nudged Dinah, confirming she too was in on the act. Alopex and Kenzi passed them torches lit on both ends. Piquing the turtles interests.
"Aww snap, guys. Flaming torches!!! They're gonna do tricks with flaming torches!!!" Mikey was hyped everyone at the edge of their seats as they continued the performance. Dinah and Charlie levitated in the air above the pool for everyone to see. Alopex, Kenzi, and April stayed in their postions with the nanobots, continuing the dance.
Careful not to get to close with the flames. Charlie and Dinah twirled the torches, tossing them in the air, catching them. The crowd were at the edge of their seats. Leonardo was amazed with Charlie and Dinah. They were flawless with their tricks and stunts. Had Raph, Donnie, and Mikey impressed. The girls gave a nod, pressing their backs together, consuming some sort of flammable liquid, lifting their torches and blew a large flame into the air creating an amazing image. Splinter and Chief smiled at the performance as the girls and nanobots took a bow.
"Hey Mikey, hows it feel to know your girl is a Fire Breathing Wild Thing?" Donnie asks, giving the girls a thumbs up.
"So stinkin' awesome. I wouldn't mind the burn. It's a turn on!" Mikey shook with anticipation, Charlie saw his reaction, feeling the vibe. She still had some flame left on her torch and decided to take notes from Mikey's book. She directed the flame to her behind and let it rip. The flame almost touching the mansion. Everyone was flabbergasted. Laughing and ewwing at the same time.
"Real nice, ya fart knocker!" Raph shouted.
"I'm proud of it too. Excuse Me!"
"At least she said 'excuse me!" Leonardo mumbled. Chief and Splinter shook their heads while Vern and Casey gave each other high fives. Even the nanobots somehow mustered up a disgusted expression. Chief turned to the turtles giving a calm (enough) warning.
"I don't want any of you eating those beans throughout the rest of the night!" They all looked at Mikey who blew up the whole forest with his flatulence.
"Yes, Mom." Mikey says.
"Alright. Time for the main event. An event that us ladies have to agree deserves respect. Kenzi, if you please." Alopex says on the mic. The girls rejoined their lovers and family for the main event.
Dinah looked to Leonardo, with so much love in her heart it could cause cardiac arrest. "I hope you had fun today, Babe. We put a lot of thought and work into this." She says, brushing her dreads out of her face. He grabs her by the waist.
"This was needed. Everything. You've given us more than we believed I deserved. Thank you." His smile infected her, causing tears to coat her eyes as he kissed her forehead. He had to admit, aside from the bickering and drama, hes had a good time. Spending the day with his growing family.
Kenzi winked at Donnie, pressing a button on her wrist watch. In an instant, fireworks went off, exploding in the air in an unforgettable dance. Alopex worked Kenzi's BoomBox, putting on the song of all songs for such an occasion.
They all sat, watched, and listened. The entire day lead up to this very moment. The flashing in the skies, the entire landscape flashing with lights, tails wagged, hearts full of love. They all couldn't ask for a better moment.
The guys embraced their girls as the fireworks created a series of colors that represent each of them. The flashing continued on for what seemed like forever. Raph throw self control out of the window as he turned Alopex to face him and kissed her. Her tail wagged as he hoisted her up, kissing her harder. The other felt the vibe as they kissed their girls.
April and Casey watched as the scene played out as the fireworks crackled. Happy that her brothers are sharing this memorable moment with the ones they love. Casey couldn't resist as he drew April into a kiss as well. She welcomed the kiss, bringing him in closer.
Chief and Splinter watched on, letting the atmosphere speak for them as the flashes drew smiles on their faces. Overwhelmed with joy that their children formed an eternal bond. Vern just about cried mentally but kept a straight face for the occasion.
"What a surprise! Do it again!" Mikey goofed, twirling Charlie around, she started whooping.
"You set the firework show up so well. It was so well coordinated. A perfected sequence. Flawless performance. Amazing......." Donnie mouth was immediately shut with a sweet kiss from Kenzi.
"He talks too much sometimes." Alopex teased, leaning against Raph's chest.
"Can ya blame em?" He asked.
"Not at all." She kissed him again.
"Thank you, Dinah. Thank you all!" Leo says out loud.
"All for you guys. Especially you, Baby." Dinah purred.
The Muses have gone above and beyond to give them the best 4th of July they've ever experienced in their lives. Thanks wasn't enough, they wanted to give them a better thank you. Later.
The show ended. They all clapped and hugged one another. Dinah faced Raphael.
"Bring it in, sis!" She smiles, jumping into his arms for a bear hug. "Thanks, sis. Ya did good. Ya all did good." He pats her back. She hugs him back, purring in his ear. No matter how much they quarreled, she still loved him as a brother. Charlie hugged Donnie tight enough to crush him. It was a touching scene. A beautiful family scene.
They cleaned up the yard and headed inside to rest. There was only one problem.
"WHOSE GONNA EAT ALL THIS FOOD!!!??" Kenzi grimaced, her voice echoed throughout the open concept of the mansion.
They all looked at each other, shaking their heads. Except Mikey.
"Can I just have dessert? I loved that Peach Cobbler." He says, smacking his lips.
"Whatchu mean that? We didn't get any!" Dinah whined
"None of us did either! We had the red velvet cake, banana pudding but no pie!" Donnie snapped, his hands at his hips.
"Michaelangelo!!!!" Splinter's voice rang out in agitation.
"It was too good! I couldn't stop myself!"
"You have got to be kidding me! Really?" Chief hissed, upset because she loved Charlie's peach cobbler.
"Uh, isn't there a freezer downstairs that has another peach cobbler?" Alopex asked, drawing everyone's attention.
"Wow. Always plan ahead, huh Charlie?" Leonardo winked her way.
"Well, theres still a lot of food here. We all ate a lot. What do we do?" Dinah asked, knowing Kenzi hates wasting food.
"I have an idea. But first, let's pack some for ourselves." She says, coaxing everyone to grab a to-go box and pack what they wanted for the week.
Dinah had to smack Mikey's hand a few times for eating cold food and trying to sneak in some more beans. Raph and Leo got into an argument over who cleans what, to which Splinter suggested they both clean the living area and dining area. Even during those times, April felt content with the events that transpired.
When everyone backed their food, they still couldn't believe how much was left.
"I must've gotten carried away with the grilling." Splinter softly speaks. Alopex looks at all the leftovers, then she thought of the many veterans out on the streets struggling to survive the night. Kenzi twiddling her fingers when she recalled having the nanobots cook extras just in case Mikey got too carried away.
"Hey Donnie? Any chance you came across a city nearby? Or maybe a community shelter?" She asked. Chief and Leonardo were catching onto where she was getting at.
Donnie pulled up his GPS to locate a city close by. While he did that, Chief rushed over and hugged her eldest.
"You may not want to admit it, but you have a big heart. Bigger than you'll ever know." She whispers into her ear. Alopex tried to relax her facial muscles the best she could. She hugged her mother back, thanking her softly.
"I got one. There's a community shelter and hour away from here. Is there a reason you wanted to know?" Donnie asked. Kenzi nudged his shoulder.
"Look around at all this food. Not to mention the extra food that hasn't been cooked yet. We got it good while those who served our country are starving. Homeless even. Some don't even have family to give them a to-go box!" She explained. Very thought-provoking dialog that shook the entire house. The girls could afford it but some cannot. Everyone looked around at the food left over, feeling a sense of charity.
"Mind if we borrow your cloaking devices again?" Leonardo asked Kenzi, earning a big smile and a cheer.
"Yes. Yes you can." She answered, Raph and Donnie gave a nod. Mikey felt a ping in his heart, eating the most out of everyone, he felt a sense of guilt to those who have nothing. Charlie took his hand.
"Hey hun. This night ain't over til we all say it's over." Mikey's smile came back, filled with a mission.
"What we waitin' for people? Let's load up!" Mikey chimed, earning claps and cheers from everyone. Everything was packed. Everyone but Splinter, Vern, and a few nanobots stayed behind to rest.
They all made it to the community shelter, spoke to the ones in charge, next thing they knew, the girls, along with their turtles in their human disguises began donating their leftover food to the shelter. The workers could not find the right words to say to the amount of food the group donated.
It also gave them all a chance to get to know some of the veterans. Their stories, the things they've gone through, the sacrifices they've made for the country. Hearing their stories made even Leonardo wanna cry. Some of them were women. Everyone their was grateful for the donations. The fridge was filled to the top and the unfortunate had a good meal to eat. It wasn't over though.
The group loaded themselves into the tartuga truck, the turtles removed their cloaking devices, and took off back to the mansion. It was silent the whole way. Alopex cuddled Raphael, Charlie and Dinah cuddled Mikey, Kenzi rested her head in the Chief's lap, while April and Casey snuggled in the corner. The girls looked at each other, took out their phones, making a move the guys were not expecting.
Alopex showed Raphael what she did, while the girls did the same. Donnie had to wait because he was driving. They couldn't be any more speechless than they've been all night.
The girls made a significant donation of $1 million each from their accounts to the community shelter. Making it a total of $4 million each. Leonardo turned his head towards the window, trying to hide his watered eyes to the huge donation the girls made. Dinah kissed his cheek.
Raphael just about squeezed Alopex to nearly crushing her. Mikey did the same to Charlie and Dinah. Kenzi shed tears as she embraced her mother. April sunk her head into Casey's shoulder, both were elated with how the night ended.
"Best Party and Best After Party Ever!" Mikey says, making everyone smile.
"Happy 4th of July, everyone!" April and Chief say in unison.
"Happy 4th."
