The new vigilante

chapter one: the shadow ninja

Leo pov// it was dark in NYC but the moonlight illuminated everything. my brothers and I were patrolling again searching suspicious activity. " yo dudes! check it out!"my younger brother shouted. he was balancing on his tiptoe if that was even possible. "Mikey be quiet., how many times do I have to tell you, we have be silent if we want to be keen on the crime activity *sigh* " I told him getting a little frustrated by his childish actions. we continued on for about 30 minutes and there was a large bang in an alleyway. we each gave each other ' the look ' and ran towards the noice. i couldnt belive my eyes. it was a young ... ninja? he was fighting some kraang bots which currently was surprising because its been long since we saw them. the ninja was very skilled and according to my past lessons with my late father, his katas were very swift in ways only my sensei could tap. watching him move quickly made me wonder if he was part of karais recruits. " who is that? " i heard raph ask from behind me. " whoever he is we cant take any chances with him. he might be foe." i told them knowing the curiosity in the mysterious vigilante. " but what if he is one of us? "donnie asked.

I thought for a moment. he was fighting the bad guys whom we had no idea that still existed. I did the one thing that popped to my mind..."there's only one way to find out." I said as I joined in the fight. " well its about time". I heard Raphael say as I slashed a kraang Droid with my twin katanas. they followed my lead as we fought side by side with the vigilante. he seemed surprised by our presence but I bet he's seen worse if he's fighting the kraang.

once all bots were pulverized I sheathed my katanas back as I stared at the pile of broken parts. "who are you " Donnie asked reminding me that a stranger was in our presence. I snapped my head up and faced the ninja. he shook he's head signalling that he couldn't say his name. I was getting a little suspicious even though he did help us fight the kraang. " come on dude. we are one of the good guys. you can tell us." he only looked down.

he looked back up at me and couldn't help but notice his serious expression even though his face was halfway covered by a mask.he walked over to the shadows and removed a black dirt bike. " woo ow " Mikey breathed. there was a bag hanging on it . the guy removed a notebook and a pen. on doing that, I figured he was disabled.. ya know... mute. he wrote something down and left the note on the bike. we all watched in interest at the ninjas silent actions. he walked into a kraang van that crashed earlier and removed a vile. " what are you doing with that? " I asked. he only continued to walk over to his bag and put it inside. he sat on the bike and did a soldier salute. now I knew where this was going. I ran towards him but he already drove away.

I felt so stupid for not going after him. I only sighed. Donnie tried to comfort me by telling me that he could be one of the good guys. we decided to go home. each of us claimed the fire escape. Raphael first, Mikey, Donnie,then me. "psst.. hey " I heard someone whisper from behind me. I looked down only to see the same ninja holding out a piece of paper to me. I took it but before I said anything he ran away. I looked at the note and tucked it in my belt.

once we got home I went straight to my room and shut the door. the note was burning me to curiosity. I took it out and popped on my bed. I took out the note and began to read in eagerness to know its contents.

dear...um..dear turtle. sorry, I didn't catch your name. Anyway,I know you are wondering who I am so I would like for you to meet me
at the building of the rooftop where you guys saw me fighting the kraang. please come alone.

I looked at the note in both shock and confusion. who is this guy? I thought to myself as I geared up and headed out. I made sure non of my brothers followed me. I know it was weird obeying the orders given by someone who could be evil but something in me kinda trusted him.

I arrived at the rooftop pacing back and forth thinking if this was a good or bad idea. I kept remembering how he was skilled and how this could be a trap. then I remembered something. that ninja had impressive skills but once a bot took him down. I helped him up..but then...I saw his eyes..they were...different. " so ,you came?" I jumped as a voice brought me back to reality. I turned around only to find the ninja. " I hope you came alone" I nodded. he sighed. " alright, here we go." he stepped closer and removed both his mask and his hoodie...or should I say..her hoodie. yep..it was a girl. my whole perspective was now different. she was so .. beautiful. she untucked her hair and flipped it to even it out.
her eyes sparkled in the moonlight making her more beautiful if possible.

she smirked at me making me blush. " the names y/n. " she held out her hand. Still a little stunned, I shook it gently. " L-leon-n *clears throat* Leonardo" " *giggles*you seem kinda shy. don't worry, I used to be" her voice was so calm. my mind was racing. how could she be the ninja? " are you alright sir Leonardo? " "huh? oh yeah I'm good I just... don't understand how you...." " oh I see, don't worry, your not the only one who thought I was a..ya know..guy."

we got along preety well. she was nice. she told me how she was born in b/p in a different dimension and ended up here because of the kraang. She befriended some other guys and they got together making their own team. She told me how much she got interested in Japanese especially when she got her sensei. I told her about my crazy life as she told me hers. later on we hanged out often. I eventually told her about my favourite show and she seemed to be a fan as well which made me happy. shes amazing if ya ask me. I don't even trust Cacy as much as I trust her.
from the time she told me who she really was,I knew we would be great friends. Perhaps more?
