Chapter2: against the clock

As the car pulled up at Sacks tower, Petra scanned the sidewalk looking for her cousin "she's not here?" Casey questioned as he stepped out of the car, it wasn't like her to be late. Both petra and Casey stepped out of the car and looked around, Nova was definitely not there.

There was the sound of a distant crash from above that caught Petra's attention, she looked to where the noise came from only to see large metal pipes and debris falling from the building.

"Dad!" She screamed causing Casey to run around the car and rushed her to safety as the falling metal hit pedestrians who were walking past, Petra clung to his jacket as people began to run and scream, the full area going into panic mode.

Casey looked around to see another cop trying to manage the large crowd of people alone and turned to Petra "hey, hey I have to go" "what!? Are you crazy!?" "Listen to me, ok? find your cousin and stay safe! I'll be fine, I promise" and with that he rushed out into the chaos, Petra loosing sight of him in the crowd. She began to panic her mind wavering between following after him or staying put, she then made up her mind looking beside her to the front door of Sacks tower "I'm coming Nova"

Petra rushed up the flights of stairs as fast as her legs would carry her, the elevator was sent to the top floor which was annoying but it wouldn't have been safe anyway due to the fact that the building might be collapsing. Eventually on the twentieth floor she stopped taking a breather, she was completely out of breath "so.many.stairs!" She groaned and stood up ready to take off running again however a familiar buzz sounded, her phone.

Petra quickly retrieved it from her pocket seeing Nova had texted her, she eminently pulled up the message to see a desperate message "Petra call the police! Mr Sacks is shooting people in here!"

Petra quickly texted back despite the message filling her head with confusion "what floor are you on?" "Floor 23" with that Petra headed up the stairs once more, from above someone slammed open a door and headed for the roof but Petra didn't pay them any mind,

Once she arrived Petra slammed open the door, looking around only to see Eric Sacks unconscious on the floor. She walked around him and picked up the hand gun that lay beside his hand, that's when she saw Nova helping a man she'd never seen before, he'd been shot.

"Nova!" Petra gasped thankful her younger cousin was ok, Nova's head snapped in the direction of her cousin's voice, her hands covered in blood "Holy shit!" Nova stood up and rushed over the two met halfway and embraced each other, Petra's grip was tighter than her's "oh thank god! You said he was shooting and I-I didn't know what to think!"

Nova coughed a bit "can't breath!" Petra quickly let her go "it all went so fast! Mr Sacks came in here and shot my co-workers and I hid behind one of the desks! And then he had this red liquid which was definitely blood due to its consistency, but he attached it to the extractor and it made this green ooze! Then this woman and Vern over there came in and knocked him out!"

Nova pointed to the man who was lent again what Nova called the extractor "Yep, still here" he groaned as Nova made a squeak like noise "oops! Sorry!" She rushed back over to his side and helped wrap his shoulder "So where'd the woman go?" Petra asked not seeing anyone else "she's gone to the roof, shredder is up there at the moment" Vern explained grimacing at the pain as Nova paused, She looked to Petra fearful "shredder." Petra spoke fear in her voice. As Casey was a police officer both Petra and Nova knew more than most about the leader of the foot clan.

Petra looked determined towards Nova "I have to help her!" "That is not a good idea" Vern protested trying to get up only to flop back down in pain, Nova finally finishing bandaging his shoulder. She stood and turned to Petra "if you go, I go!" "Nova. No. It's fine if I go I'm armed" she warned as Nova walked over and ripped a meta pipe off one of the walls "and now so am I." Petra smirked at her equal determination reflecting in their eyes "let's go!" The two rushed out of the room towards the stairs not before Nova yelled back to Vern "NICE MEETING YOU!"

The two made it to the final set to the roof only for a woman's voice to scream out "SHREDDER!" Both Nova and Petra ran faster and rammed the door open with their shoulders, just in time to see a woman wearing a yellow jacket get tackled off the roof by a man in robotic samurai armour. The woman saw them and with some of the strength she had she threw the canister towards them, Nova and Petra were frozen in shock. The canister would have flown right over their heads if Petra hadn't jumped up to grab it, Nova screamed as the large spire on the roof collapsed causing the entire roof to shake. Petra grabbed Nova's arm stopping her from falling to her death, once the shaking stopped Petra kept holding Nova close just in case as they backed into the stairwell. Then she saw something out of the corner of her eye, four moving objects. Petra looked over to see them, four bipedal, mutant turtles, each carrying ninja weapons. She was in shock, there was no way they were real! The turtles rushed to the spire and began to rush to the woman's aid, one of them wearing a blue mask glanced at her as he ran. She felt like time slowed down in those moments of eye contact, she swore she knew those eyes. "PETRA! WE NEED TO GO!" Nova yelled pointing out the shredder was trying to get back to the roof and was staring right at them.

"But-" "NOW!" Petra growled under her breath as she slid the canister into her jacket and they fled the scene, leaving the ninja turtle things to help out.

------------------------------------------------
Nova and Petra reached the front doors on ground floor and were ushered out by police, just as shredder's body fell from above and crashed into the cement. Petra and Nova both stopped looking over as the rest of the spire fell and landed "their not-" Petra looked around trying to see where the mutants and that woman had gone. The people started screaming again making the two snap their heads over, the shredder was getting up.

Petra couldn't look away as the suit of armour now dripping with blood struggled to skulk towards them "you." Is all he said as he brought one arm back, Petra aimed her gun at him. Shredder then threw what looked to be around twelve throwing knives towards them, Nova quickly pushed Petra out of the way as the knives embedded themselves into the wall behind them, cutting a small amount of brown locks from the tips of Nova's hair. The two girls fell to the ground just as the shredder did.

Nova quickly got off Petra and looked up to the wall and began to shake violently, Petra began to mutter prayers in Spanish as she glanced over to the shredder who was face down and definitely not getting up. Nova slowly and shakily stood up as Casey and the police officer he'd been helping ran over, Casey embracing both girls "are you two ok!?" "I-I think so, Petra" she didn't answer, she was still muttering in Spanish...
