When I woke up again I knew another day had passed. I was still on the couch but now with a red blanket on me. I was greatful that at least I was healing somewhere safe. I knew though that I couldn't stay here forever. I stretched as best as my sore body would allow before curling up and pulling out my phone. I sighed seeing the messages from work and seeing I have been missing for a week. I was starving and I slowly made my way to the smell of eggs and pancakes. I stayed as quite as I could heading in the direction of the wonderful smell. I couldn't help but hear the five members that lived under this luscious city. I leaned in the doorway and watched the family converse and make louds of fun at and with each other. I couldn't help but speak up when Mikey 'the chef' announced;

"Who's hungry?"

"I know I am." And it became dead silent and all eyes fell on me.

Oops.

"Good to see your finally awake Miss Jasmine, would you care to join us?" Master Splinter asked.

"I would love to, thank you Mr. Splinter." I said, slowly making my way to the seat closest to him and beside Leo yet sitting right across from Raph.

It was silent for a long time before a huge pile of eggs, bacon, sausage, and my personal favorite pancakes was placed on the table. Everyone dug in and I waited before piling up my plate myself. I silently devoured everything on my plate and went in for seconds, thirds, and then fourths. When I was finished I sat back and relaxed until I noticed the eerie silence that was in the room. Without opening my eyes and still relaxing I decided to break the unbearable silence that threatened to choke me.

"May I ask why is it so damned silent?" I asked

"Dude you can fit all that food in your tiny body?" Mikey asked and I couldn't help but snort out in laughter.

"I don't get what is so funny, are we missing something?" Don asked completely bewildered.

"No no --- it's just-- oh goodness, it's just so many people ask me that because you would think I wouldn't eat more than a spoon full of well anything. In truth I've always been one of the guys. Well how can you not when you grow up with brothers-" I stopped and froze when I realized what I had just said.

"Dudette? You okay?" I stood up and walked out of the room and went to the couch laying down and covering up in the blanket.

I would have given anything just to disappear for a few hours. Anything.

'Other POV'

They watched as she slowly got up and just walked away. They all shared some worried looks but never noticed the turtle in red venture off to check on the state of the baffling girl. They never shared a word on it but deep down they all knew he cared. If that would be a good thing or not no one reqlly knew.

'Normal POV'

"Are you okay?" Raph asked and I just buried myself deeper in the blanket, maybe then I would disappear.

"I know your awake, you know it's better if you talk about it rather than keep it buried. It doesn't help you know, keeping everything locked away. It destroys you in the end, just thought I'd let you know. . . . . . What am I doing she's probably asleep." I heard him growl and slowly walk away and into another room, probably his room.

I peeked out and soon got up, this was nice but I can't stay here. They remind me of what I have lost and I won't loose that again. I won't have my nightmares coming true once again. I decided to disappear like the shadow I am. I made my way out of their lair and quickly found my way out of the sewers. Yes I was still very weak but successful maybe it to my apartment. I washed and went straight to bed, deep down I never planned on waking up.

'Your too selfish to see you blinded idiot!'

I'm super sorry for not updating but I really don't know where exactly I'm going with this. Maybe her brothers aren't really dead or she'll meet some kid that acts like one of them and becomes a sort of guardian for the kid. Maybe she gets turned seeing after shredder escapes. I'm not really sure what do you think I should do.

Would love some thoughts on this, and please criticism is welcome I'm kinda used to it. Thank you for sticking with my pathetic story.
