Total Turtle Transformation (TMNT Book 4)

Shredder's Kraang (Naomi POV)

I knew I scared the shell off of Mikito acting like that. It was fun, actually. Heh. Their faces are something I won’t forget for a long time. Both Raph’s and Mikito’s were pure shock and the others pure terror.

The only one I didn’t want to get was Leo. He was busy with the missile launcher and the Kraang ship. The sad part is, they were so scared that they were too easy to beat. All I had to do was glare at them and they’d flip out. Just whack ‘em hard enough on the head and they’d get knocked out.

Now I was on the dock that I helped Mikito up from, waiting for Shredder and Karai with my arms crossed. Finally, Karai came up with Shredder and we worked together to bring him over to the concrete instead of the dock.

He had something in his hands, and I was the only one who noticed. I backed up, reading something from him other than his head.

“Father, are you okay?” Karai asked.

Shredder got up and showed Karai a Kraang. The brain Kraang, not the robot. His low voice growled, “I found this, and I know how much you’ve always wanted a pet.”

The brain screeched and even though it was the brain and not the droid, I stepped back and instinctively holding the wound I got from their kind in the first place. It gave me chills touching the wound, but I nearly died that day.

Both Karai and Shredder noticed my action and looked up. Karai asked, “Why’d you do that?”

Slowly and with a soft and shaky voice, I answered her, explaining what had happened that night where I got shot. It was a few months ago, but it felt like just weeks ago. The Kraang made me uneasy.

“So you’re scared of a brain?” Karai finally asked.

“Karai!” Shredder snapped at her. “Naomi has her reasons. She did almost die and if she would’ve, then we wouldn’t have someone as skilled as her with us currently. Now Let’s go back and see what this thing has to say…”

I smirked at Karai as I passed her to follow Shredder. His comment made my spirits rise again. She gave me a somewhat evil glare, but I by-passed it, knowing that I could beat her up any time I wanted.
