Kimberly Hamato

Tales of Leo

Mikey and Raph continued to hit the door with all their might.

"that's not helping!" Kimmy says before fire shot from under the door, causing the two brothers to step back, to not get themselves burned.

"Trapped like rats," Mikey says looking at the fire. "No offense Sensei," He adds looking back at Splinter, who gave a small nod.

"Leo's in really bad shape," Donnie says and Kimmy walks over to him and looked at Leo. "We have to get him out of here," Kimmy turned hearing Raph go back to stabbing at the door with his Sia.

"Workin' on it," Raph says as he continues to stab at the door.

"Raph! we can't go that way, it's on fire!" Kimmy says holding her right hand out, a yellow shield went between him and the door and pushed him away from it. " We are not fireproof you hothead!"

Raph opened his mouth to say something but stopped, Kimmy turned and noticed April was pushing a box.

"What are you doin'?" Casey asked looking over, April was struggling to push this huge chest out of the way.

"I remember when we first moved in, there was a hole in the wall where a cooling unit had been removed," April says as she managed to move the chest out of the way, there was a metal cover blocking the hole.

"Oh, sweet," Kimmy says as Raph quickly made his way over and pried the metal off with his Sia. Kimmy went over as he pulled the metal off. "Now we can get out,"

"That's it, everybody book," Raph says pointing to the hole, April crawled out, followed by Casey, Kirby, Leo, helped through by Splinter and Donnie, Kimmy crawled through, Mikey, and then Raph. They all ran away from the building, turning around just in time to see explode.

Donnie and Mikey were holding Leo up, Casey was comforting April, Raph stood back, Splinter walked over to speak to April, and Kimmy stood there, staring at the building, watching it burn. Kirby stood off to the side, also watching the building burn.

Everything around her seemed to fade away, she wasn't sure how to process this.  She could faintly hear Splinter and the others speaking, but their words sounded like a muffled, jumbled-up mess. April's place is destroyed, home isn't safe....so....now what? She tensed feeling a hand on her shoulder, she turned and saw Raph standing there.

"Come on, we got a plan," Raph says and she nods and turns away from the fire.

Kimmy stared out the window, watching the trees turn into a blur as they drove past. They had all gotten into an old car, with a covered trailer-like thing attached to the back. Her brothers and Sensei were hidden in the back, Casey and April are in the front, and Kirby sitting in the back with her. It was snowing, and she was getting cold. She yawned a little and rested her head on the window.

"You're going to love my Grandma's old farmhouse," Casey says as he drove. "Me and my cousin Sid used to play there all the time when we were kids,"

Kimmy looked up from the backseat. She looked over and saw Kirby staring out the window, she looked forward and saw April looking out the window.

"April?" Casey asks with concern clear in his voice.  April looked up and then over at Casey after a few seconds.

"How do you think Leo's holding up?" April asks quietly. Leo and the rest of her small family were in a trailer being pulled by the car they were in. They were given a bunch of blankets to try and keep them warm, Kimmy wasn't sure it would hold for very long though. She turned and looked out the window again, she started thinking about the fight in the store, and then her mind went to the past few interactions she had with Leo...she held herself tighter, Leo was looking out for her and all she did was throw it back in his face. 'who died and made you sensei?' 'you're not my leader' sure, she had said boss, but it was the same thing. She thought about seeing Shredder step into the shop and her eyes started glowing bright yellow as she glared out the window. She tensed when she felt a hand on her shoulder, her eyes stopped glowing and she turned to see who it was.
