Chapter 1
"I'm back baby!" I yelled as I zoomed down the streets of New York on my motorcycle.
I raced in between cars, ran red lights, made sharp turns! I felt like I could be in Fast And Furious 7, only on a motorcycle instead of a sick ass car.
I made it to my destination and parked my motorcycle in front of the Channel 6 building. Planning to surprise April, I looked around and made sure no one around. Then I proceeded to climb the building.
Once I located April's me office I carefully opened the window. She was busy looking over some papers at her desk. I dropped into the room, landing lightly on my feet.
"Miss me?" I cleared my throat.
She gasped and looked up, frightened at first. Then she realized it was me and jumped up from her chair, running towards me. She gave me a huge hug.
"Yes!" She yelled happily,"Oh my God, where have you been? The guys and I have missed you. You've been gone for like a year!"
"I've been with my mom in Japan," I replied,"also, I've been catching up on my training and powers."
"I'm really happy you've found your mom. What was she like? Did you tell her about the guys? Why'd you come back? Will she come to New York and visit?" April asked a lot of questions.
"She was great and nice, yes, I missed you all, and yeah," I answered.
My mom was really thrilled to finally meet me and she was great to be around. As for telling her about the guys, I only told her about their personalities. Not about them being mutant ninja turtles.
"Wow, I get off in about an hour or so, we could meet up with the turtles tonight," April smiled.
"Hey, O'neil I got-" Vern stopped when he saw me,"Victoria? You're here?"
"Naw dip, Pea Brain. Where else would I be? In Alaska?" I grinned.
"Would you quit with the nicknames? You're an adult," Vern grumbled.
"So? I'm also a mutant with fire and ice powers, but that doesn't necessarily mean I'm not gonna play around with them," I shrugged.
"Good to have you back," Vern sighed.
"Good to be back, I'm gonna head over to your apartment April. Is it cool if I crash with you?" I ask her.
"Sure, your bedroom is still how you've left it, just make yourself at home," April smiled.
"Thanks. See you two later," I responded.
I waved and climbed back out the window. I also heard Vern tell April she knows there's stairs right? Ignoring him I jumped down to the sidewalk.
Hopping on my motorcycle I drove off. I past by Pizza Hut to grab a box of pizza before heading over to April's place.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So when are the guys supposed to meet us?" I impatiently asked April.
It was nearly midnight and I was with April on top of the same roof we all met on. Vern was there, too, but that wasn't important. I like Vern, he's like an older annoying brother, but sometimes he can be a pain in the neck.
"Didn't they teach you patience over in Japan?" Vern asked.
"Yeah, but there's a difference between having patience and having to wait for people who run really late," I said.
"They said they'd meet me here around 11 pm," April checked her phone,"they're are going to freak when they see you."
"Especially Raph," Vern muttered under his breath.
"What was that?" I raised an eyebrow.
"I didn't say anything," he said.
Just then Mikey appeared behind April and scared her just like he did that first time they'd met. Only this time, she didn't faint.
"Mikey, don't do that," April gasped.
"Sorry, Angle Cakes," Mikey grinned.
"Does he have to call her that?" Vern muttered.
"Yep," I said pooping the P.
"Victoria?" Mikey said in amazement,"wait I gotta check first."
Mikey walked over to me and poked my arm. I frowned, what was he getting at.
"What are you doing?" I ask him.
"Seeing if you're real," he poke me one last time and exclaimed,"you're real!"
He hugged me and I gasped for air when he finally put me down. Then the other turtles caught up with him.
"Victoria?" Leo said.
"Hey guys, I'm back," I smiled.
"Welcome back. We've missed you," Leo gave me a side hug.
"Retina scan...yep, no matches found. You're her," Donnie concluded before hugging me.
"Great to see ya again," Raph smirked.
"Thanks Raph," Raph then gave me a quick hug.
I couldn't help but smile up at him as he pulled away. Then I quickly looked way before anyone could noticed.
"Victoria?" I blinked back into reality when April waved her hand in front of my face.
"Huh? Sorry, I was-you know what? Never-mind," I shook my head slightly.
"Okay, I was asking if you want to go to the turtles' new and fixed up lair?" She asked me.
"Oh, sure! If been wondering what you guys did with your lair after it..uh, sort of blew?" I said nervously trying to word it correctly.
"Come on, they'll take us," April said.
I nodded and followed them to the edge of the building. The turtles helped April and Vern down to the manhole. I easily jumped down and landed lightly on my feet.
"Ladies first," Mikey said to April.
"Thanks," she smiled and jumped into the manhole.
"Dorks next," I pushed Vern forward.
"I'm not a dork," he muttered.
I jumped down, Mikey laughed at Vern and then jumped down. We all then headed towards their lair.
"Raph...are you...are you smiling?" I hear Mikey say in disbelief.
"Am I not allowed to?" Raph's asks irritated.
"No, it's just..so rare for you," Mikey said, earning a punch from Raph.
"Knock it off you two," Leo said,"we're here."
I looked around. The whole place was cleaned up and almost pretty much the same. Only it looked more upgraded. I walked around and noticed Donnie had more gadgets to play around with and a new training area was set up.
"Cool, I never really got a chance to explore this place," I said looking around.
"Victoria, it's great to see you again," I turned to see Splinter standing in front of the boom box wall, so glad they fixed that and kept it.
"Splinter," I said walking over,"it's great to see you,too."
"The brothers have missed you dearly, not to mention April and Vern," Splinter said.
"Yeah, don't mention me, cause I barely did," Vern said.
"Did you manage to find your mother, child?" Splinter asked me.
"Yes, and she'll be visiting in the future," I replied.
"Good, now you should go and bond with your friends. I'm sure they would love to hear about your trip," Splinter smiled.
I bowed and turned towards the turtles, April, and Vern. They motioned for me to follow them and we all headed towards the training area.
"You know I remember you telling Raph something about a fight before you left," Vern said.
"That's right," I said remembering,"we still gotta find out who the better fighter."
"You're going down," Raph smirked.
"People and mutants! Place your bets here!" Mikey said.
"Ten bucks says Victoria will cream Raphael," April said to Vern.
"Twenty bucks says she won't," Vern replies.
"Thanks for the vote of confidence, Vern," I said glaring at him.
Raph and I faced each other, as we were about to fight an alarm went off. I stopped and looked at Donnie for an explanation.
"There's a robbery on Elm Street!" Donnie announced,"and there're hostages."
"So now y'all are playing police and stopping robberies?" I ask slowly.
"Well, Foot activity has pretty much ceased when we took out Shredder," Leo said,"so now we just look out for the city."
"But isn't that what the police do?" I say.
"This ones different," Donnie said,"reports say that they aren't taking money. Only hostages."
"We should check it out," Leo states.
"I'm coming!" I say.
"Then let's go, April you should stay here," Raph says.
"Vern and I'll have to go down for the news anyway, so we'll head out with you," April says.
Once we got to the streets, I separated from the group and took my motorcycle to the bank.
When I go there a bunch of police cars were parked outside. I walked up to the police tape and overlooked the area.
"Miss you have to get to a safe distance, they'd have a bomb planted on the premises," a fat police man with a mustache says.
"And you guys are doing what to stop the bad guys?" I ask.
"Everything we can," he frowns at my tone.
He walks away and I quickly duck under the police tape.
"Apparently that's not enough," I mutter.
I make sure know ones watching before I climbed to the roof of the bank, when I peer in my heart skips a beat.
Snake and his men were the ones in the bank. They had about twelve or so hostages.
"Which one of you has it?!?" Snake yelled out,"I know one of you holds the key to the Mayor's safe because I have people on the inside that alert me."
"P-please," a woman stutters. I wince myself as Snake grabs her hair and yanks her head backs..
"Not a word or the little one gets it," Snake points a gun at a small boy beside the woman.
"Yo boss! It's him," one of Snake's goons holds out a phone.
"Hello-yes I understand-don't worry-of course, we'll bring it to you-thank you, Master Shredder ," I lose my color when he says this.
"Alright, listen up!" Snake's voice booms,"my boss ain't to happy about the wait, so I'll give you till five to cough up the key."
"One." He starts. I spot the turtles across the other side of the roof, they're looking in through a window like I am.
"Two." The turtles nod at me and I get ready.
"Three." Aiming myself to land on the nearest guy I see I get a running start.
"Four." A split second before I crash through I spot a girl my age take out a key.
"Five!" I crash through the window and take out the guy as I land on him.
Then I form an icicle with my hand and throw it at a fuse box about fifteen feet away. The lights go out.
The only light shining belongs to the moonlight shining though the windows we had crashed through.
"Cowabunga!" I hear Mikey yell.
Everyone panics and run towards the exit. The guys do their best to avoid them and take out Snake's men.
I fell someone press's something small and cold into my hand. It's the girl I saw earlier, she presses her finger to her lips and runs out with the rest of the hostages.
I grip the key in my hand and slide it into my back pocket. Then I turn just in time to see Snake run out through the back of the bank,
Running after him, I jump over the counters and run through the back doors snake did.
"Dammit," I curse when I reach the outside. Snake jumped into a black van and they drove away.
