Scarlet's Pov

"Leo! Raph! Mikey! Splinter!" Furia shouted into the silent lair. In the matter of seconds three turtles and a rat came running in, all bearing weapons. I stared at the rat. My eyes widened.

Is it really him?

Yoshi?

Even in the state I am in I'm surprised.

"What's wrong Furia!?" They all seemed panicked, afraid that Furia was in trouble. Of course she would soon be in trouble but not just yet. They all would be in trouble. Shredder would make me kill them all.

"Guys! Look who I brought." Furia pointed towards me. All the turtles stared then blinked slowly. The rat stared at me with wide-eyes.

Does he know like I did?

Or is he just surprised to see a mutant cat-girl hanging on the arm of a dog-woman. Hmm seems pretty funny.

"Who's that?!" The turtle with the red mask asked rudely as he stuck his sias in his belt. Furia let go of my arm and took a step forward. She placed a hand on her hip. I could hear Donnie laugh beside me.

"Well this is..." Furia stopped short as the rat took a step forward. I stared as he started to walk directly towards me. I took an unsure step back but kept my face firm. He stopped right in front of me. The rat seemed to be examining me. I gulped.

Maybe it was Yoshi. He had been turned into a rat but I mean there could be more than one rat mutant. There's more than one turtle mutant.

Everyone was staring, waiting for the rat's next move.

"Scarlet?" His voice broke through the silence. I felt my whole body go numb. It was him! Yoshi!

I wanted to scream but I couldn't. The hair on my arms stood up and I could feel my heart thumping unsteadily.

"Y-Yoshi?" I finally managed to squeak out, my voice sounding un-used. I could hear Fuira giggle like a small little girl, happy with what was happening. All at once the rat engulfed me in an tight hug.

"Oh Scarlet." His voice was full of relief and happiness. I hugged back.

My Yoshi. He was right here.

"I missed you so much. I-I'm so sorry." I frowned as I laid my head on his shoulder. I would've cried but I just couldn't. Shredder wasn't letting me. He was giving me a little freedom, I could say only certain things though.

We both broke the hug and stared into each other's eyes. I glanced down.

"I was so terrible to you. So why are you still happy to see me?" I spoke uneasily. He probably isn't happy to see me. I felt Yoshi tilt my chin up so I was looking at him.

"Scarlet. When you told me to leave that day, do you remember what I told you?" He smiled at me tenderly.

I did remember. When I had told him to leave and never come back, Yoshi had told me that he would never stop loving me. So when we met again he would still feel love for me.

I felt tears well up in my eyes. My head started to ache from doing something Shredder was trying to stop me from doing. Whenever I did something small or anything at all that went against what he wanted I would start to get a headache. The headache meant that I was slowly starting to get control of myself. But of course this would make Shredder work harder to avoid me breaking free.

Yoshi wiped away some of my tears with his thumb. Then he leaned into me, connecting our lips together into a passionate kiss. My eyes slowly drifted closed as I melted into his touch. I could hear the turtle either making gagging noises or whistling. Furia was squealing with happiness.

Yep it was so perfect. Yet it wouldn't be for long. I was to kill them all, every single one and then I would be gone. The thought of this made more tears fall out of my closed eyes and down my cheeks.

We broke the kiss and stared at each other. Yoshi smiled and turned towards the turtles.

"Scarlet these are my sons." He gestured to the turtles. I followed his hand as he pointed at each one. "Leo, Raph, Donnie, and Mikey. You already know our daughter." He laughed. I felt my heart throb with pain. His laugh, the laugh that I haven't heard in years. I chuckled and broke into a huge grin, my headache was increasing but not enough for me to be free. Maybe they would be able to break the control he had over me. I wish I could say something but he wouldn't let me. I was doomed to kill my renewed family.

Furia's Pov

I can't explain how happy I felt as I watched my Mom smile so happily. My whole body felt numb, blissful. I was smiling so wide my face hurt. My heart was beating a thousands miles an hour. Tears were starting to well up in my eyes and my hair bounced as I shifted repeatedly. I had my mother back. My mom. Not the one who had hurt me. No I had the one I yearned to many years for. The one who was loving, kind, and amazing. Splinter seemed so happy to be reunited. I wish this feeling could last forever. I had a family again. The turtles. My father, Splinter. April. Casey. And my beloved mother. Everything is perfect. I hope it can stay this way forever.
