Enjoy!

"We've never seen an enemy like this. Their size. Their strength. They aren't human."

"I don't believe in fairytales."

"Use innocent people as bait."

"Take out the vigilantes."

                     "Yes, Master Shredder."

You couldn't remember how April had convinced you to wear this dress, but she had. It was a blue mini dress with hint of subtle sparkles, trailing from the cowl neck to the hem.

It stopped just below your mid-thigh, and the straps were very thin. The cut had certainly showed off your slight hourglass figure. The neck line gave a peek at your decent size breasts, and you couldn't help but feel exposed.

"April!" You whine, tugging at the uncomfortable fabric.

Your sister turns to look at you, and as soon as her eyes trail over your outfit, her jaw drops. "Holy shit, Y/n."

"What?" You mutter, folding your arms over your chest and looking at the ground with a pout.

"You look...amazing."

You shake your head, running your fingers through your unstyled hair. "I look like a hooker."

"No! You don't!" April replies quickly. "I've never seen you wear something so..."

"Slutty?"

"Confident." April finishes. "I picked a good dress, blue is definitely your color."

Grumbling, you quickly curl your hair, slide into your black velvet heels, and meet April by the door. You hadn't bothered to do any makeup, partially because you didn't know how and partially because you didn't really care.

"No makeup." You hiss, following your sister out the door.

April shrugs. "You look good without makeup, Bug."

"Several of my employees lost their lives that day..."

"Goes out to..."

"I hope this city..."

The speech that Eric Sacs was giving was muffled by your own thoughts.

Seeing this man only reminded you of your father, who had died when you were only seven. How he'd died doing what he was passionate about.

Your mind wanders to the experiments he kept in his lab. April loved to record and drag you around, showing you the different things she'd done with her camera.

Not only has the both of you enjoyed watching the turtles, you individually, found the rat most interesting. He was more active than the turtles, more lively. You very much enjoyed watching and playing around with him.

Splinter, you recall.

You emerge from your thoughts, your eyes finding April. Her gaze was set on Eric Sacs, and she looked completely mesmerized.

You couldn't relate. You didn't really have any feelings towards the man, you only knew that April admired him.

When the speech was over, April pulled you by the hand to catch up with Eric Sacs.
