-PRESENT-

Yin and the gang rolled out around midnight. This was the time that they'd take back what is theirs: New York City! All of them were scared for one another.

"I hope things go as planned", Donnie fretted.

"Knowing how shit has been going lately, I doubt it", Raph scoffed, leaning back and resting his head on the metal.

"The least you can do is not stress out your brother more", Yin growled through clenched teeth, looking over her shoulder.

"Instead of arguing can we all try to think of how to get in?" Karai snapped. "Yin? You know that place better than any of us."

She nodded. "Yeah. Hmmm...it's still being rebuilt from when I blew it up last time... I've got it! Raph? Can you distract any guards out there...with pigeons?"

Raph smirked and grinned back. "You got it."

Karai laughed behind her hand. "I can't believe pigeons actually like you."

He deadpanned. "A lot of people actually like me."

"Name them all", Karai laughed.

"Let's see...Casey, April, you somewhat. And Yin. And that's all I need! I don't need everyone's eyes on me to feel appreciated", Raph crossed his arms and pouted.

"Dang, that was actually well said", Yin said. "Okay-so I'm thinking Raph can be the bait while the rest of us sneak inside. Raph? Follow us in when you think it's the safest time." I actually gave an order without being a bitch about it for once...maybe twice?

"Done and done", Raph replied. "Y'know? With all this stuff that's been happening...you're really turning out to be a great person, Yin."

Her eyes widened, and she felt her cheeks flush. "Y-You mean that?"

"Tch. Sure I do", he narrowed his eyes at her. "I don't talk just to hear my own voice for my own pleasure."

"Aww, that's...that's very sweet", she said softly.

Leo, Splinter, April, Casey, and Mikey all wait in silent agony. Were the others alright? Were they in danger? Who knows...!

"Uggghhh, I wish they'd text one of us", Mikey groaned loudly, running a hand down his face.

"Be patient", Leo snapped. "They will."

"Don't give your shell a crack when you're the one probably more stressed than I am", retorted his brother. "It's fine, dude."

"Metal", Casey snickered, laughing with Mikey.

"..." April sighed and facepalmed.

"I know we're all dealing with a lot of stress right now", Splinter sighed. "But we must be strong-for Yin."

"For Yin!", the group said in unison.

"Hey!" April pulled out her phone. "It's a text from Yin! She says they're sneaking in now. Ha! Raph is distracting Kraang with pigeons."

"Nice!" Mikey cheered, snickering. "Well at least they're all alright, still together and all that."

"Only time will tell when things will go downhill", Splinter said gravely.

Leo sighed. "On the first call-we all move."

A/N: the chapters will be depressingly short for awhile! I've been dealing with a lot of stress
