Ch. 2 Who is she

Trigger Warning: broken bones, violence, minor body dysmorphia

Black, it is extremely vast and heavy yet it is still. An eerie peace is common with black but never once does it give up its ability to enhance fear and solitude. Black is where Leonardo found himself earlier that night.

Silent and methodical. He wears a black face scarf, old, tatter, and stained from blood. The question of whose blood it is, no one really knows. His body, just as his brothers, is muscular and defined with scars. Especially the one over his right eye to his lip and the one going down his right arm that is decorated with blue smoke following the scar. He is clothed with black hakama pants that are wrapped by black linen around his knees to his shoes. Only half his chest and his left arm are clothed in his shinobi shozoku; the right sleeve is missing and sewn together and left to sag at his defined waist. Behind him are two mounted black katanas.

Raphael Stalks the above rooftop in the same attire except he doesn’t care much for the shinobi shozoku. He never liked the way clothes feel against his plastron or the annoying way they get bunched up over his shell. At least that’s what he told Master Splinter in the argument for efficiency. Michaelangelo always teases Raphael for flaunting his muscles and tattoos.

“SHIT!” A foot soldier screams as he is flung next to Leonardo into the graffitied brick alley. Leonardo immediately unsheathes his katanas and lowers his body into a low stance. Raphael jumps down from the rooftop with a heavy thud to his feet and kicks the already unconscious foot soldiers‘ face in.

“Was that necessary?” Leonardo barks at Raphael as a scream fills the air. Both of them sprint to the chaos around the alley. “It was to me” Raphael says as he scales the alley wall and smashes his sais into a foot soldier that rounded the corner. “More the merrier, why not?” Leonardo groans sarcastically as a whole group of the foot runs into them with a shocked look. Both Raphael and Leonardo look at each other before lunging to take down the obviously surprised group of foot soldiers. It was weird. It seems like the foot wasn't suspecting to find the turtles. Like they were preoccupied. Or escaping. Leonardo slices a foot soldier and kicks him away with a growl. That is until he’s knocked to the ground by a foot soldier. He hits the ground hard and grabs the foot soldier off of him to punch his windpipe. He turns to where the foot soldier was thrown at him. His hardened scowl turning into shock

Raphael’s eyes widen. He saw it in slow motion. The foot soldier lifting his arm to stab Leonardo in the neck. “Leo!” Raphael roars as Leonardo is looking off in the distance. Raphael growls as he jumps and lands his large foot on the foot soldier's wrist smashing the bones as the knife drops from the hand. His sias piercing into the sternum with a sick crunch. “Where’s yer head fearless?” Raphael spits out before Leonardo grabs Raphael and sprints back out the alley.

Leonardo couldn’t help but be distracted. He groaned as he saw her. ‘Another fucking mutant?’ It was hard to peel away. She had a shocked expression as she locked eyes with him. She hurriedly got off the foot soldier she straddled. Her hands lifting to her face and glowing a light blue hue as she bent her right leg into a low position. ‘Is she fucking glowing?’ That’s when Raphael suddenly came into view and broke Leonardo from his daze. “Fuck” Leonardo says through grit teeth.

She isn’t following them. Good. Both Raphael and Leonardo scale the alley wall and rush back to China Town where the manhole to the lair is.

I know what I saw that night, it was predatory. Those glowing white eyes.The same eyes that are my own. lean back on my hands with an audible sigh after cleaning my wounds. I look at my window lazily watching the raindrops run down the glass. Lightning strikes and lights up the clouds every so often, allowing me a glimpse at the nighttime scenery. “How will I ever find you again?” I mumble out loud to myself. I get up and quickly glimpse at the mirror in the small but cozy room I have in the underground lab of the TCRI building. I strip out of an oversized t-shirt, the only type of shirts that feel comfortable over my shell. I stare at my green skin, my soft plastron, the way my plastron shapes over my breasts. I look over at the small night stand and tear up. The fashion magazine’s cover is a blonde hair bombshell and I sigh and flex my arms with knit eyebrows. I wasn’t made to look pretty.

I have always known I was different. Growing up the only turtle amongst the foot and Krang scientists, I knew I wasn’t a normal kid. Not human. And TCRI made me really popular for that reason. Since my mutation I was actually raised by the foot faction that circulated in New York. My sensei was Hattori Tatsu, who taught me the basics. Balancing my chi, different hakas, and of course meditation. Until Master Shredder authorized partnership with TCRI for their Krang scientist to experiment on me when I was around thirteen. All in the name of The Foot's glory and a stronger future of deadlier ninjas. That’s how I got my powers and why I fought against the Foot tonight. They wanted to take me back home before my twenty-first birthday.

I growl and smash the mirror as blue encompasses my fist. My teeth grit as I whimper. ”Now they care about me?“

TMNT OC Shredder 2.o

Little Background

Meet Shredder 2.o also known as...Hattori Hiroto. (I know in the comics, he is Shredder's son but you will get the reason why I made him Tatsu's son in a second...)

Hattori Hiroto is the son of Hattori Tatsu and also...Karai's first love. Hiroto met Karai in his teens, when his father forced him to join the Foot. He was personally introduced by Shredder and his two daughters. Since Shredder had no son of his own, Tatsu saw it a perfect opportunity to get Shredder to see his son, as his potential heir but Hiroto had no interest in being the next Shredder.

However, Karai did which is why she threatened him when they finally were alone and that is how Hiroto fell for her. It took a long time but eventually, he won her heart, only for him to break it, again...and again. Basically, he and Karai were a constant on and off thing until finally...Hiroto ran away, never to see Karai again until...many years later.

A couple years after Tigerclaw called a truce between clans, Karai got word that he was challenged and overthrown. Scared of who was now ruling the Foot, Karai went to meet him, only to be completely shocked when she saw it was Hiroto.

She would have killed him right then and there but luckily for him, Pimiko was there and explained everything. She said that they had no intention of causing another war, but it was said on Shredder's will that if his eldest daughter, Karai is proven unworthy to rule the Foot then the clan is to be given by the son of his right hand man, Hiroto. Which is why he challenged Tigerclaw for the throne.

Karai, of course, was still confused since she remembered Hiroto never wanting to be Shredder but then he explained that Pimiko was the one who sought him out, and convinced him since Tigerclaw was proving to still be an untrustworthy leader.

Karai had no idea why her sister thought Hiroto was more trustworthy than Tigerclaw but she trusted her so, she agreed with her choice even though she had her doubts. Besides, despite their past, she knows that Hiroto would never go into war with her.

However, even though she knew that, others did not. The two clans still feared war and honestly, no one could blame them since the war has gone on for 500 and almost 20 years. Karai and Hiroto both knew it was only a matter of time before someone does something dumb and causes another bloodshed which is why...Karai wanted to make a treaty.

Karai accepted a long time ago that there was no getting rid of the Foot, no matter what, there will always be someone who wants the power of the Kabuto and even though she hated him with a passion, she would rather that power be in Hiroto's hands than anyone else.

She knew that the only way to end the war was a small alliance and she knew exactly how to do it. Truthfully, it was no plan of her's but it was a good one.

Truth is...Karai needed an heir, and a child with another clan is physical proof of no ill will towards each other.

She needed an heir, Shinigami always wanted a child, Hiroto needed security and both their clans needed the reassurance, it seemed like a win-win for everyone but Hiroto, of course, was reluctant until Karai convinced him.

So yes, that is how Yoshi and Amai were born, children that were born to keep the peace between two clans. Sadly, Hiroto did not want to be part of their lives but he did make them their pendants, since apart of him did feel guilty. He could not give his children a fatherly role model but he thought he could at least give them something that came from him...

Physical Appearance

Hiroto is a tall, muscular Japanese man with long black soot colored hair that he wears in a high ponytail, tan-skin, and hooded shaped gray hazel eyes. He has a scar that goes across his nose. In public he is seen wearing silver armor and a helmet which was a cheap version of the Kuro Kabuto. But mostly, He wears a long studded leather jacket, blackish-gray t-shirt, black jeans, leather knuckles gloves, and a black dragon pendant that is similar to the ones he gave the twins when they were born.

The Foot & Master Tatsu - TMNT (90)

[bobauthorman]

TMayNT Days 1-5

I'm doing a bit of catch-up, but I also want to put my best shell forward!

Day 1: I think my favorite is Michelangelo. I've always had a fond spot for that excitable chucker. I feel kinda bad that most people prefer to make him the butt of the joke.

Day 2: The 2003 version, of course! She's smart, she's stylish, and probably the first April to really get in there with the guys!

Day 3: Tatsu, from the first two movies. His curtness and grunting kinda makes him endearing, without taking the spotlight from the Shredder.

Day 4: The Baby Turtles from the 1990 movie. "Pizza! Pizza!"

Day 5: Favorite Leonardo? Hmm, that's hard to say. But I kinda like the one from The Next Mutation. Now, I know that series is a sore point for a lot of folks, but some of my favorite Leo jokes come from this show, such as when he tries to break a stack of bricks with his head.

"Come watch Leo turn his noodle into strudel!"

[incorrect-tmnt2012-quotes]

Shredder: I gotta steal a baby. Like, reverse stork.

Tatsu: Do you mean adopt? Stealing babies is generally frowned upon.

Shredder: Nah, I mean steal.

Shredder, holding baby Miwa: Yoink. Mine now.
