Epilogue
It had been a hard first few years with the Leo's kids being so young, but once they grew up some and learned to be a little more independent of their dad and uncles and other caretakers, things got a little easier. Patrols or training sessions often had had to be canceled or delayed when looking after 6 little ones.
Today was an important day for Leo's kids. He was starting their ninja training today and had been wanting to start it for a long time.
Yoshi and Takara were only a month older than Shin, Hiroshi, Kameko, and Sakura.
Even at the age of 5, the kids all had distinct personalities and likes and dislikes. As they all knew Leo as their father, they all had been ready and nervous for the big day of starting ninja training. They saw that it could get pretty intense at times when they watched their father and uncles do it.
Yoshi was the oldest one and the most like Leo. Before this day, he had been the most leader like of all his siblings. He was close to Leo and Splinter. He often had clashes with his twin sister, Takara. His eye color had turned brown.
He followed closely behind Leo, trying to match him step for step. Leo would glance back at his son and smile as they walked to check up on the others.
Takara was the second oldest. She walked past Leo and Yoshi, carrying a plate of cookies. Her tongue was out as she concentrated on keeping the cookies from slipping off. Leo stayed back but decided to follow her to see where she was going. It was no surprise to find that she went straight to Raph.
"I made cookies," she declared as she approached. "Aunt April helped."
Raph was lounging on the sofa watching hockey. He sat up as she approached and looked at the plate in her hands. "You made these?"
She nodded and held out the plate. "Aunt April helped."
Raph was hesitant and Takara's smile fell to a frown. "Eat a cookie, Uncle Raphie."
Raph took a cookie from the plate and sniffed it before taking a bite. He smiled down at her, "It's very good."
She beamed back up at him. "I made them for you."
Leo left them together and continued his search for his kids.
Tang Shin was called Shin for short. Leo found her where she always was, with her Uncle Don. She was sitting by him while he worked, working on her own toy computer. She was the smartest out of the group and the most creative. Donny's shelves had several of her clay made works of art covering them. Her brown eyes sparkled as she looked up at her favorite uncle.
Hiroshi was sitting next to Shin, the two were inseparable. He was her little assistant whenever he wasn't sitting in with Splinter. He was incredibly close to his grandfather.
He was a mix of color from both his parents. He had the finger and toes number in common with Kameko, but Hiroshi's coloring and eyes were like Leo's.
Kameko was the most tortoise like of all his siblings. Leo found him with his Uncle Mikey. They loved to joke, sing, and dance together. Mikey was teaching him some simple break-dancing moves. Kameko, despite his size, was quite flexible. His eye color was very dark, practically black like his mom's had been. He also got along pretty well with his younger brother Hiroshi, as they both had four fingers and three toes.
The youngest of the bunch was Sakura. She had her dad's looks, but had the dome shell of her mom. Leo searched for her and found her curled up in a corner crying. Leo knelt down next to her and caressed her head. "What's wrong, Little One?" he asked, though he already knew the answer.
