Chapter 6 Part 2

Raph stopped.

Usually he didn’t let anyone interrupt him during a fight. But this wasn’t usual. Donnie had never yelled at him like that before. Sure Raph got on his brothers nerves and got into loud arguments but not like this.

His purple branded brother had never let anyone see him so openly upset before. Not since they were like 9. Usually he would just stay in the tent and wait until he was fully collected to let anyone see him. The only person who ever got to see Dee like this was Mikey.

But Raph couldn’t think about that. That brought emotions and ‘mushy’ feelings and those made him look weak. They made him feel weak. And Raph wasn’t weak. He couldn’t be.

“Dee-” Of course Leo would change the entire subject in 2 seconds. He had the better traits of a big brother. The ones people respected. Raph was just stuck with being a bully.

“No! You guys are gonna make him upset again!” Tear tracks laid deep on his face. He looked so tired and his voice was so strained it was a miracle he wasn’t sobbing. His look shocked Raph just as much as the words and voice coming out of his mouth.

“Wait. Who?” Raph tried not to look concerned but his change of aggression was an obvious give.

“Mikey!”

Both Leo and Raph froze looking back and forth from each other. Confusion and utter disbelief crossed their faces.

“. . . Dee”

“All you ever do is fight! And everyone around you has to deal with it!”

“Donnie”

“You just keep on going on and on and”

“Donnie!”

“What?! What do you want me to do?! What do you want me to feel?!”

“Mikey isn’t here.”

The truth was well known but it still stung to have to hear it. Raph had to close his eyes and hide tears that burned at the tips of his eyelids. No Stop that It won’t help.

Donnie’s expression softened after realizing his mistake. He eyes shot to the ground, tears running down his face.

Everyone froze in the choking silence of their room. The sound of their dad doing the dishes was faint and seemed to slip further and further away. No one knew what to do.

Leo turned to Raph for guidance. Why did he do that sometimes? How was Raph supposed to know what to do? But somehow he always knew what Leo was thinking or tried to tell him. Even without words they knew each other too well.

Donnie was the first one to break the ice this time. “I-I mean-what I was trying to say was-” Hiccups interrupted his warbled speech. But the current youngest turtle was interrupted by the sound of Leo’s phone buzzing.

The blue turtle quickly answered eager to break the silence and awkwardness of the situation. “Hey April. This isn’t really the best time right now.”

“Have you guys seen the news?” She sounded so excited and enthusiastic that it contradicted the old vibe of the room.

“Nooooo.” Leo looked at his brothers in confusion. Donnie wiped his tears and leaned in closer to hear the conversation.

“Well you’re gonna wanna see this!”

April sent Leo a link as they remained on call. He opened the link to see the headline blaze into view in the news website’s signature animation.

SHIPPING DOCK SECURITY GUARDS AT EAST HARLEM FOUND WOUNDED BY MYSTERIOUS FOOT FIGURES

2 security guards are rushed to the hospital after being found with lethal wounds. The only clue police are left with is a piece of ripped fabric from the attackers’ clothing.

“Scroll down and look at the picture!”

Leo did as told and gasped at the sight before him. The picture was badly lit but the red circle containing the emblem of a foot was clearly seen on the dark clothing.

“Is that it?! Is that what the emblem from your attackers looked like?!”

They couldn’t believe how easily this had just appeared. It was both horrifying and relieving to find their first point in the right direction.

“Holy fucking-”

“Oh my-”

“Yes! Yes! It is! April you’re a genius!”

The turtle brothers celebration was brief as they got ready and geared up. Raph was rushed more than he usually did. Hold on Mikey. We’re coming.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pain.

What a great way to wake yourself with. Mikey didn’t even have the strength to open his eyes for a while. But that didn’t matter in their eyes. They just kept on asking question after question until they rendered him useless.

At this point it was a good thing Mikey wasn’t dead. But that wasn’t quite comforting enough to fight the pain. He assumed he had two black eyes again(Great yet another reminder of the whole super duper fly fight).

He couldn’t take it anymore. He had to at least see what was going on. It took effort and he definitely had 2 black eyes but he did it. It was dark only the moonlight lit the large room. It looked like one of the old abandoned warehouses him and his brothers used to explore before rendering them boring. Back when they weren’t allowed to be a part of civilization and were forced to live in the sewers.

He was sitting with his legs crossed. Partially hovering over the ground because of the chains that pressed into his skin and kept his arms and shell tightly bound to the pillar behind him. Sharp movements made his head spin and his face distort in pain that followed.

“Look who decided to wake up.”

Mikey craned his neck up to see his captor. It was the same one from last night. 2 other figures stood guard lurking around the now confirmed warehouse.

“Good mornin” Whenever a situation was unexpected, Mikey usually saw comedy as a good ice breaker.

“So the freak thinks it’s funny.” It was easier to see that the people of the room were leaning against or sitting on old tables.

“Is that a bad thing?” He was using that tone where he was trying to be polite but it always was seen as rude by his dad and adults. Mikey probably shouldn’t have kept talking but the teenager had a bad habit of rambling in these situations.

The main person who was talking- whom of which Mikey found to be an older teenage boy- was obviously not amused. His expression was very similar to the expression of the milk lady, dull and obviously stuck up in themselves yet also threatening. Looking like at any moment he would pounce.

“I mean isn’t like laughter the best medicine? So what’s so bad about being funny?” Mikey shuffled in his uncomfortable position. Hoping that for some reason his struggle would release him from the figurative and literal chains of this moment. But that only made the tight literal chains more and more unbearable as blisters formed. He needed to get out of here.

His thoughts were interrupted when on of the other figures delivered a sharp blow to his stomach causing him to double over. At least as much as his restraints allowed. It felt like his guts were flipped inside out and then hit with a speeding highway vehicle. The older teen then waltzed over as Mikey groaned and gagged. He yanked Mikey’s chin up firmly only letting the turtle look at him and him alone. His face was scrunched up in pure hate and disgust the turtle.

“Now you listen to me smartass. I-”

“Enough!”

Towards Mikey’s right a fourth figure leapt in through a broken window. At closer glance Mikey found that they were a she. Her raven black hair shone in the moonlight with white streaks with repelled the light. She stood tall with authority and grace. The other 2 guards addressed her by bowing.

“Lieutenant, what did I say about beating the target?”

The Lieutenant growled before shoving Mikey’s face down and turning to face the girl. “Come on he was being a brat. Besides aren’t there 3 oth-”

“What did I say?” Raising her voice made even the Lieutenant flinch. Mikey could tell she was definitely the boss here(definitely super badass). The Lieutenant glared at Mikey, as if he had intentionally caused this, before turning and bowing. “Not to. You told me not to beat the freak. I apologize General.”

He recognized her voice from somewhere. He realized where when she set her backpack on the table.

“Hey aren’t you Aprils new friend?! What was your name? Oroku something? What the heck Oroku?!”

She was definitely pissed now but she kept her dull tone and hid her annoyance. “First of all it’s Oroku Karai. Second of all it’s Japanese so the last name is said first. And third of all if you know what’s best for you than you will keep your mouth shut.”

Mikey decided that he would do just that. Karai was definitely not someone to be messed with. At least she won’t let them hit me anymore.

“And as for you Lieutenant” Karai turned and marched in front of him and the Mikey’s other captors. “Yes we do need his three accomplices thanks to your incompetent job on the initial attack. But how do you expect us to find them if they’re aware of our initiatives?”

Mikey sat there not liking the sound of how this was going. His head still swam and left his thoughts loosely floating in a sea of confusion. Accomplices?

Karai was obviously growing impatient by the silence. Another thing he noticed was that she never really looked at him. And when she did and Mikey noticed, it was never for more than a second.

“I spoke with Master Shredder. He said that to draw them out we must use something that they want.”

Mikey could hardly keep in the shock of his realization. They aren’t talking about my brothers, are they?

“Well what do they want?” The Lieutenant was obviously not as smart as his leader.

“From my understanding they call each other brothers.” Shit. She really was just a toxic snake wasn’t she. And she was good too. But for some reason her expression broke into something softer. Something filled with guilt and pain.

The Lieutenant however hadn’t given Mikey the mercy of guilt. His face twisted into a cruel smirk as he turned to face Mikey’s fear filled face. No no no no no no. This can’t be happening.

“Then lets test that brotherly loyalty.” The Lieutenant continued staring with a sickening smile that put gasoline on Mikey’s fire of fear. “When do we leave to get their attention?”

“Troops were already sent this afternoon.” Karai continued with a full expression on her face. “They’ll bring back the targets when their job is finished.”

No no no no no no no.

“Now if you excuse me I have . . . business to attend to.” She marched out from the warehouse arms plastered behind her back. Once she left the Lieutenant slip back into his freedom without Karai overhead.

Mikey was stuck in the shock his captors cruel plan. Leo Raph Donnie. Please.

He hung his head low in defeat knowing that soon his brothers would have to go through the same pain he did.

Please be ok.

Finally back to this au. Have a Hoppy Easter and Cowabunga turtle fans.

Sneak Peak At Their New Room?? YES PLEASE!!

(Well not new but still)I’m so happy!!🥳🐢💙❤️💜🧡

Lita May in Tottmnt

I have her storyline on the same post as Venus’s (right here). The reason why she has claws and markings on her plastron is because she is part pink bellied side neck turtle because her creator, Doctor Rockwell, didn’t have enough turtle dna from the mutagen and Venus’s dna alone so he had to improvise. This is what caused her to be albino and premature. Lita likes to put her mask tails into different styles so sometimes she has them tied back with beads or wears them down but she usually has them in a bow. Lita has a tutu cuz she loves dancing and wearing dresses. But even though she likes to get dolled up a lot, she sees the beauty in herself and others no matter what. One time the boys came home from school and saw her hugging a raccoon in arms like it was newborn puppy. Her bracelet on the bottom left corner is something she makes after meeting the boys and living with them. Speaking of which here is a list of nicknames she has for her family and her brothers and sister’s friends.(Keep in mind she is 7 and the best teacher for English she had growing up was an 8-15 year old)

Venus: Vee Vee

Leonardo: Leo, Nardo

Raphael: Raphie, Raphala

Donatello: Dee Dee, Don

Michelangelo: Micheal, Mikey

Splinter: Ba, Daddy(This is after she and Venus have moved into the turtles lair and joined the fam)

April: Apple(has red hair and green beanie(just realized it ain’t green sorry)=🍎)

Casey Jones: Bones(Their mask is a skull and they always get hurt)

Thats all ig. If you think of any other people let me know

Karai Storyline for Tottmnt

I did Venus and Jennika before her and feel just a tad guilty(check out Vees story here and Jenn’s story here). So here it is. Again these are just ideas that I thought would be cool. This also connects to my fanfic Difference Between The Appearance which is still midway through the process(Check that out here). I’m also going to give some quick background knowledge on the Foot and the Hamatos.

Background on Hamatos and Foot clans aka Shredders origin story: The Foot clan was founded by the Hamatos sworn protectors from ancient Japan made and trained to keep outraging demons and yokai from destroying all of humanity. Over centuries after the great battles of the past they had resolved to a peace waiting for when the day came to rise up and protect the world once again. At least that’s what it used to be. The last generation’s heirs to the clan’s power, Hamato Yoshi and his adopted little brother Oroku Saki, were the beginning of the great change. When their mother died, Yoshi gave up his power to Saki knowing that he himself was not ready for such responsibilities (the responsibilities and power that Saki had been dreaming of since the day he had joined the family). For the first 10 years things were fine. Saki lead the clan with Yoshi as his highest advisor and the man he trusted more than anyone else. He even fell in love and married a woman named Tang Shen. She was deeply devoted yet also independent and strong helping any all she could. She even joined the clan and trained to be able to fight by her love’s side. This love was the next crack in the Hamato legacy. Dispute between gangs in New York were brought to the clans attention. At the time(2013/2014) Saki and Shen had a child, Karai. The couple(and mainly Yoshi) decided to move the Hamato clan to New York since it had the most gang disputes that came in contact with the biggest hidden yokai city in the world: The Hidden City. On one of Tang Shens patrols a gang of unruly young mafia men decided that kidnapping her and Yoshi would probably give some great advantages in the criminal underworld attacked. Yoshi was there when she was shot and killed before what little crew was left after the attack. Saki however did not accept this. He got angry and blamed his brother for not telling the truth of what happened. He believed that there was no way that his Shen could have fallen to such sloppy work. He had heard the stories of mutants coming in and out of New Yorks news reports. Saki assumed that they were the ones that killed his Sakura flower. His rage only continued to fume when his own brother couldn’t be trusted and his 5 year old daughter stepped in front of his traitorous brother to protect him. Saki lashed out killing Yoshi but accidentally giving Karai fatal wounds. He went mad and rushed his daughter to the very illegal yet very effective treatment of TCRI. Using threats of death and money, Saki forced them to fix his daughter and unknowingly turn her into the first semi successful super soldier. Saki was never the same after that night the fun loving and impulsive man he was was twisted into a ruthless assassin bent on manipulating his story into a story of a hero avenging his family and killing every mutant until they became a thing of the cruel past. He became the Shredder. He spent the rest of his life turning the calm protectors of the Hamato Clan into the merciless fierce warriors of the Foot Clan. Saki convinced the clan, his daughter, and even himself that mutants were the blame for the deaths of Yoshi and Shen. Instead of secretive recruits for the gifted he authorized raids in which homes were set aflame and children were kidnapped or dragged from off the streets. The world seemed lost losing its only protectors who could fight such a threat. But legend says that every 10 generations a gift child in the Hamato bloodline would be given the ability to create spiritual chi stronger than any being known to both yokai and human kind. That chi was Yoshis gift passed from Tang Shen into the afterlife. They say that this gifted child can help guide one student through corruption when the world was twisted into a mess. That world was the world Karai and the Turtles lived in.

Karai: Though she doesn’t remember much Karai does share a few memories with her mother. Sadly she also shares memories of her uncle and what happened that night. The night she was turned into a half snake mutant girl living in the anti mutant beliefs of her father. Thankfully one of the scientists saw that the 5 year old girls father was clearly not going to be as merciful as last time if he found out his child was one of the things he hated with bloodlust. The half yokai scientist instructed Karai and supplied her with an elixir to keep the snake side effects of the super soldier serum at bay and giving off the illusion that the only successful thing it did was save her from death. After recovering from the attack, Karais father told her mutants had attacked the Foot and that her mother and her uncle died in the process. Enraged by the loss of her mother and uncle and afraid of what new changes had happened to her father that made him so scary now, she let him try to mold her into a fierce easily controlled cunning warrior. Though she believed in what she was raised in to some extent the feeling that what her father was thinking was off combined with her memory of what happened that night still panged at the back of her head until she did find out the whole truth. When she was 7 Jennika was taken into the Foot and Karai begged for her to become her new adopted sister. Though they both got the same treatment from the Shredders rage, Karai tried to get that anger to be shied away from her sister. Karai thought since she was older and had dealt with the Shredder her whole life only she, rebels, and mutants deserved to have to deal with his angry fits. Eventually the Foot finally got a good lead on mutants when they literally walked onto to the cities doorsteps without hesitation or consequence. After Superfly’s attack Karai was assigned to spy on the turtles and gather information so the Foot could successfully take them out without objection from the public. She went Eastman High and though she tried not to became friends with April she couldn’t resist the noisy girls likeliness. Karai actually became so close she almost got in trouble and tried to warn her friend not to dig deep into the Foot Clan and expose them knowing April would be abducted and assassinated. But her freind was stubborn. So stubborn in fact that Karai was coaxed into meeting the turtles. When she did Karai was shocked by how young and innocent they sounded, looked, and acted. Almost like her and Jennika. Later on when she was sent to attack and had the chance to kill both Donnie and Raph in one blow she softened. Their fear and Donnies weak attempt to protect a wounded Raph seemed too eerily similar to how she felt the night of her attack. After that she started to turn to the turtles side and coaxed Jennika into doing the same. But she was also running out of elixir because her supplier had died 2 years before. Eventually it caught up to her and she transformed into her full unruly snake soldier form. Thankfully the turtles and their sister, Venus, caught her and found a way to revert her to a midway between mutant and human. As Venus described it she was beautiful and perfect. Karai felt perfect and whole this way not too much exposed and nothing being bottled up. She felt free and decided to leave the foot. Moments after said revelation, Jennika called her and said she found the Shredders true plans. Midway through the call the Shredder took Jenn captive and forced Karai to meet at a rendezvous point to trade herself for Jennika’s life. Luckily the two survived now both mutants and allies alongside the turtles. Leo and April became her closest friends and Venus became her girlfriend. Karai was free to be her independent strong and even a little bit of a goof and delinquent self for the red of her life

Sooooooooooooo . . . . . . .

That’s my storyline for Karai in Tottmnt. Comment or just ask if you have a character you want me to do next in Tottmnt or if I should stop and these are bad. Cowabunga turtle fans 🐢🐍

Tottmnt Sexuality Headcannons 🏳️‍🌈

Cannon Characters From Mutant Mayhem:

Leo: Bisexual but mainly has female crushes in cannon

Raph: Also Bisexual(I need either Ramona or Rasey (mainly rasey)to show up PLEASE)

Donnie: Either Bisexual or Gay Im still on the fence with this adorable sarcastic weeb

Mikey: Asexual. I highly doubt that a ship with him is gonna go well or should exist.

Splinter: Straight Allie. It would be so adorable if one of his sons got a boyfriend and he wore a little pride pin.

April: Bisexual. Honestly Aprilnardo isn’t going as bad as I expected it to be and it could work.

Cynthia Utrom: Lesbian Asexual . To focused on work and world damnation to care about things like love or relationships.(But she would be slightly turned on by Big Mamas attempts).

Characters I Hope Are In The Show:

Casey: Depends on gender. If they’re a boy than gay and I’m gonna hardcore ship Rasey but if they’re a girl or they/them than probably pansexual???

Karai: Lesbian. I need more of this queen(Rise Karai deserves to be brought back in some way if they continue the show)

Big Mama: Bisexual. She hits on who she wants when she wants you know what I’m saying. That is before she kills them for not wanting to date or for breaking up with her.(Thinking about if the deal scene in Insane in the Mama Train happened but instead of Draxum it’s the Shredder, Bishop, or Cynthia Utrom)

Venus De Milo: Lesbian Pansexual. I’ve been thinking of this beautiful ship with her and Karai(see storyline for Vee here). Vee got abused and manipulated by her aunt, Karai got abused and manipulated by her dad and they both have scars that make them both stronger and closer to each other as no one understands the pain more than the other.

Jennika: edit: Lesbian. Give her back Sheena or I will👿(I will either way)

Shredder: probably straight but I dunno.

Lotus: Asexual. Like Lilith from toh but she stays serious like in the first season but is a protagonist like in the second season(kind of)

Lita: To be determined(she’s like 7). Gender is Transfem(she/her).🎀

And I think that’s it. Comment if I miss any and let me know if you want me to write a storyline for Karai in Tottmnt to go with Jennika and Venus and/or finish my fanfic Difference Between The Appearance.

DISCLAIMER: This is all just my personal opinion and I mean no disrespect whatsoever. And I apologize if I mess up and say something shitty and disrespectful. I am so sorry if I did.

HAPPY LEAP YEAR DAY!!!

As tribute to the special day I have used Raph and Donnie to redraw them as Jennika and Venus in Tottmnt. I can only hope that I can look back in 4 years from now satisfied that at least one of these amazing characters officially made it into the show.

As a bonus I’ll also lay down a story line for Jennika for Tottmnt that I think would be great. If you want to see my storyline for Venus click this.

Jennika started out as a human girl. Her parents abandoned her on the streets of New York as a child. Eventually when she was on the brink of starvation, Jennika was picked up and taken in by the foot clan. There she would grow up in the same squadron as Karai. The two became super close and the greatest and strongest in their group. The shredder decided to “adopt” Jennika making her Karais second in command. The two love each other and will protect each other at the cost of their own life and more. Eventually the two would be called on by the Shredder to do investigation on the turtles. Though she was hesitant, Jennika let Karai go to spy as regular teen alone while she was left to lead their squad. When Jennika was left on her own without Karai to correct her she started to get nosy and suspicious about what the her father was really trying to do. Things only got worse she started to cover for Karai and the two started to lean towards the turtles side. The night after Karai left the foot, Jennika found out what the Shredders true plans were but got caught. She was held as incentive for Karai to finish her job and turn the turtles in. Instead of turning them in, Karai teamed up with the boys to save Jennika. But it was a trap. A huge fight broke out in one of the old TCRI factories where they had been trying to make super soldier serum. In the end Jennika stepped in the way of a deadly blow from the Shredder saving her sisters life at the cost of her own. Without thinking, Karai used the unfinished serum and some of Raph’s blood after Donnie found out that their blood was the only thing TCRI was missing and he offered it. This turned Jennika into a turtle like the boys and made the girls team up to defeat the Shredder permanently. Jennika would become close friends with the turtles and their friends especially Raph and Casey. She is very hot tempered and aggressive but also wise, independent, protective, and strong especially when it came to dealing with trauma and ptsd after not exactly having the greatest childhood(being abandoned, raised by the Shredder, and almost dying would obviously do that to a person). I kind of see her and Karais relationship as like a Shinigami and Karai thing but with less shipping and more sister love than anything.

Happy February 29th!! Hope to be happy with Tottmnt in 2028! Cowabunga turtle fans!

I know in the new Tottmnt show they’re trying to give the turtles more individuality and independence from their brothers but I kind of hope they do what rise did. Having a few episodes focusing on other characters like War and Pizza and Newsworthy but mainly episodes with a different duos from the group like Repo Mantis and the Gumbus. I love how their dynamics are working from what we saw in mutant mayhem but we didn’t really get to see much of like how raph and Leo are directingly without the other two or vice versa.
