TYNG {UNDER EDITING}

A Safe Place (Part 2)

A/N: I do not own any of the original songs that will end up in this fanfic. My cousin and I revised some of them that will be in it. Please enjoy and let me know what you think in the comments.

        "Himiko-sama!" she yelled as she bolted up right. She groaned and doubled over in pain. "Nani furikakaru watashi ni?" she asked herself.

        "Watakushidomo setsuritsu suru Anaya kizetsu shita chikai watashitachi no uchi," a wide Japanese accented voice said in the dark.

          The woman looked around and glared into the darkness. "Donata asoka?!" she demanded.

         "Suru nai da kowai wakai hitotsu. Anaya no anzen na koko. Namae wa Shunjin Splinter." the voice said as a giant rat stepped into the light. She could tell that the rat was a male. His fur is gray. He wore a burgundy robe and used a wooden walking stick.

        "What is she saying, Sensei?" Mikey asked.

        "Let them finish," Leo told him.

       "Ka mo shiremasen watashi chi zoniite iru anata no namae?" Splinter asked her.

        She looked back at him. "Namae wa Roxan-san. Watashi hoshoo Fujin Himiko. Kanojo juudaina kiken! Watashi nakereba naranai sukuu Kanojo no!" she said as she began to stand. She growled low in her throat from the pain.

         "Anata nakereba naranai yasumu ya torimodosu anata no tairyoku," Splinter instructed as he gently pushed her back down.

         "Watashi kan masen! Himiko-sama hitosuyoo Samadhi o!!!" she struggled to keep calm.

       "Watakushidomo nozomi tasukeru kanojo o. Dekiru anata iu eigo?" he asked.

         "Dekiru watashi shinrai zenbu no anata?" she asked with fear in her voice. She didn't fear for herself, but for Himiko.

         "No yarikata anata dekiru, Roxan-san," Splinter said with a smile.

         Roxan sat there contemplating on what he said. She finally came to a decision that they were safe to talk to. She snapped her fingers and the room lit up with candles. Everyone gasped. "Please do not be frightened. I am the last of the fire clan. My name is Roxan. I was guarding Lady Himiko. Shredder kidnapped her when we were both very young and raised her as his own. He has something evil planned for her. She doesn't know she's in danger. Please, I have to save her before it's too late," she explained.

          "How do ya know da Shredder?" Raph asked with his Brooklyn accent.

           "I worked under him as Lady Himiko's top guard. I shielded her from all of his wrong doing," she told him as she crossed her arms over her chest and glared at him. "Do ya got a problem with that?" she asked with malice.

         "Maybe I do!" he retorted as he crossed his arms over his plastron.

          "I don't have time for this!" she stated as she began to stand up and looked for her clothes.

         "You must rest and let your body heal, my child," Splinter told her as he stepped closer.

         "I am a youkai. I will be healed in moments," she replied.

        "I thought youkai were just a myth," Splinter said in wonder.

       "We are quite real, but very rare," Roxan replied with pride. "If you do not believe I am healed then I will show you by fighting all of your sons," she exclaimed.

        "Is that a challenge?" Raph asked glaring at her.

       "It is a promise that I can kick your shell," she said as she glared back at him.

         "Then what are ya waitin' fo'?!" he retorted.

      "We should wait until you're healed," Leo stated.

       "I am ready to fight now to prove myself," she stated proudly.

          Splinter sat there contemplating for a moment then came to a decision. "We shall test your skills tomorrow. For now rest," he told her in a calming voice.

         Roxan sighed and looked down at her hands that she placed in her lap. "Okay," she replied as she looked at Splinter.

          Mikey took a step forward and asked, "Why do you wear an eyepatch?"

         Roxan looked over to him for a few moments. Leo put a hand on his little brothers shoulder and said, "Let her rest Mikey. You can ask her questions later."

        "Okay. Good night dudette," he said as he left the room.

           With that they all left her alone. Once the door was closed she looked around the room. There was a small bed that she was sitting on, a small table in the middle of the room, and candles scattered about. She slowly stood up and found her tank top nearly shredded to pieces next to the bed. She put it on and found her trench coat and pants, which were in the same condition as her tank top. (A/N: her trench is in perfect condition.) She put them on as well, sat back down on the bed, snapped her fingers; extinguishing the candles, and waited.

      Two hours later she slowly stood up and crept to the door. She slowly opened it and peered out into the darkness. Once she was certain there was no one there she crept out and looked at her surroundings. She was standing in a huge circular room. There was a kitchen to one side and a living room area to another. Next to the living room There was what looked like an old bus or train car. She saw a lower level in the middle with a small pond to one side; a bridge going over the middle of it. She saw training dummies scattered about. Close to the kitchen was a huge doorway.

         She crept closer to it. She slowly opened it and crept out into the darkness, quietly closing the door behind her. When the door was closed she snapped her fingers again, creating a small flame that hovered in her hand. She saw that she was in the sewers. Her nose wrinkled at the smell. She walked down the tunnel until she came to a manhole cover. She blew out the small flame and began to slowly climb the ladder. She removed the cover and was about to climb out when big strong arms roughly grabbed her and hauled her back down.

A/N: here are the translations.

Roxan: What happened to me?

Master Splinter: We found you unconscious near our home.

Roxan: Who's there?!

Master Splinter: Do not be afraid young one. You are safe here. Name is Master Splinter. May we know your name?

Roxan: Name is Roxan-san. I guard Lady Himiko. She's in grave danger! I must save her!

Master Splinter: You must rest and recover your strength.

Roxan: I can not! Himiko-sama needs me!!!

Master Splinter: We wish to help her. Can you speak English?

Roxan: can I trust all of you?

Master Splinter: Of course you can, Roxan-san.
