White Tigress (TMNT)

Offer

I woke up to hear the distant drops of water. My head was pounding like a drum. I let out a groan and rubbed my head. There was a big bump on my forehead.

Slowly, sitting up. I saw I was in a cell. The only light was from a window that led to the outside but was too small to fit through. When I was thirteen, and started doing bad things my mom warned me if I didn't stop I would go to jail. Now I was in some cell inside a dungeon.

There was a numb feeling in my left leg. I saw my leg was stitched from where I was cut. A few inches where the stitching was was shaved off.

As I stood up I noticed someone outside the cell. I look outside of the cell and found that giant mutant fish. I remember his name is Xever.

"Looks like we meet again, Xever. You're looking ugly as always. You must've looked as ugly as a human." I sneered. A cold gleam shined in my eyes.

Xever gave me a cold glare. "Now that you're awake, I can go tell Master Shredder you are awake." he said bitterly. Xever walked out of the dungeon while i gave him the finger. "Go to hell!" I called out for him.

I walked over to the wall of the cell. I ran my hands over the wall to try and find something. I've learnt to escape traps and this kind of cell should-

"The tigress who evaded my men." said a sudden voice. I spun around and saw a very tall man. He was dressed in full body armor. Weapons were attached to possibly every where on his person.

"The master of the mutants who chased me." I said in reference. I walked up to the cage door and wrapped my paws around the bars. "When I imagined being kidnapped it would've been for ransom. Not that my parents had important jobs that would be targeted." I acted cool so they wouldn't see how much I'm actually scared. "Why am I here? I'm just any average mutant." I knew that sounded odd but since there were many mutants I decided to play average.

The man grabbed his helmet and took it off. My eyes widened when I saw his face. His skin was burnt horribly. His hair was completely burnt off. One of his eyes was grey from the accident he must've been in.

I backed away a few steps. His face was just...heart shattering. But I knew I couldn't feel pity. He's the bad guy.

"My second in command has commented about your fighting skills. You have fought through my foot-bots and my men.

"And in a way, you remind me of my daughter." he spoke with real....emotion. Well....almost. Some part of it sounded forced.

"What happened to your daughter? If she's like you then she must be a fighter. Wouldn't I have met her by now?"

"My daughter was mutated because of my enemies! If they hadn't gotten in the way she wouldn't have been mutated into a snake!" he shouted. My muscles tensed up as he shouts. I kept a strong face as I watched him. "I am sorry for your loss." was all I could say.

I looked over at Tiger Claw and saw he remained stock still. He didn't even seem to show any remorse, or maybe the guy is lying about his daughter. "Whatever you want from me, I can't deliver. Just let me go." I shouted at Shredder.

"I don't deserve what you other." I backed away from the bars and walked to the back of the cell. At the corner of my eye I noticed the hinges of the cell. One of them was loose. When Shredder and his goons leave I can escape.

"I won't force you, but you'll be safer here. Don't believe what anyone else says." The tone in his voice grew darker and I knew he wanted me to say yes. "Give me awhile to think." I said confidently. It was quiet for a couple of minutes that I could hear the honks of horns.

"Very well." Shredder finally replied. He turned around and left the cell. Fishface and Tiger Claw left with him.

Once the dungeon doors shut I got to work. I slid on my knees and began fiddling with the hinges. My claws dug into the loose screw and slowly rotated it the opposite way. It was actually easy. I was used to loosening screws to get blades. A year ago I went through a cutting phase. So when I couldn't find a screwdriver, I used my nails.

Slowly, and very carefully, I unscrewed the bottom hinges. I got up and grab hold of the cell door. With all force, I throw open the door. I froze when I opened to listen for any upcoming footsteps. There was nothing so I quickly set the door down and bolted.

I ran to the dungeon doors and looked through the looking glass. There were no guards so I was safe for now.

Quickly, I ran out of the dungeon. My heart was already pounding incredibly hard. It felt like if I didn't stop soon it may explode. Smells all around entered my nose. I smelt Fishface somewhere west from me. Tiger Claw was close East. I just had to make it pass them and I'll be free.

I ran through a large hallway light up by fire torches. The place looked like a castle. Sadly, I'm being held captive.

"A minute to escape the cell is very impressive. The girl Karai took longer." Tiger Claw's voice petrified me. I was so close to the door and he just had to be here.

I cock my head to the side and saw him with his shoulder against the wall. Why do bad stuff happen to me!?

"Next time, tighten the screws." I told him.

Tiger Claw immediately attacked me. He takes out his large sword and swung at me. I bent backwards and the sword was so close to slicing my face off.

Doing a quick backflip, I land on my feet and take off. "Get back here, you!" Tiger Claw roared. My ears picked up his running and I ran even faster. "No way in hell!" I shouted over my shoulder.

I ran passed a few foot soldiers that tried to catch me. My reflexes were faster and I was able to knock them off. It was amusing seeing them fall by just a single kick or punch. "Outta the way!" I screamed.

Fishface lunged at me but I swung my fist at him. Then the most shocking thing happened. When my fist connected with his slimy face, a powerful boom erupted. Fishface was sent flying across the room and flew through the wall. All I could do was stare. I look behind me and saw Tiger Claw and Rahzar. The two stood there with stunned faces.

"You guys do have medical insurance, right?"
