(A/N: Now isn't that just a cool, yet sad/beautiful chapter picture or what? Anyways, let's get on with the story!)
Turtles' Point of View
"I'm telling you guys! If we just get (Y/N) out of Shred-Head's lair, we wouldn't be here worrying over her like this!" Raphael Hamato ranted, trying to get his undeniable point across towards his otherwise uncooperative brothers and allies.
"No, Raph!" Leonardo scolded, "We're not going to be putting ourselves, or (Y/N) for that matter, in any more jeopardy by just barging in like we tried to the first time! Shredder's forces are out of our control, we can't do anything else but plan a better way to get in!"
There was of course no sense, of certain doubt in Leo's statement. Ever since you first 'arrived' at Shredder's place, and the others tried getting you out, Shredder had alreadyseemed to have reinforcements on all levels and to barricade it all well with an advanced security system. All featuring cameras, lasers, and Oroku Saki's henchmen acting as guards-around-the-clock while they weren't with you, to prevent their rescue attempts on you.
"But, how exactly are we going to do that?" April inquired of her terrapin pals, as all but Raph (whom left in a rage) were gathered around Donatello's computer as it was currently looking over the current state of Shredder's lair.
"Better think of something fast then, D," Michelangelo added, "'Because we all know of Raph's inner beast, and of how (Y/N) could be...." he didn't even bother finishing his imputed statement as he then began sobbing uncontrollably over the overwhelming possibility that you wouldn't be there anymore by the time they were able to get into the Foot Clan Headquarters. April was currently consoling him as Donnie began to think, rubbing a finger under his chin in thought.
"I bet," he began wondering aloud for the others to hear, "if I could just be able to deactivate their security systems, and distract some of their guards, we'll at least be one step closer than ever before to get inside and find (Y/N)."
Leo thought over it briefly, "That could work, and April," he then turned towards Mrs O'Neil, "you think you'll be able to use your psychic powers to find (Y/N), once we get inside?" Luckily, the ginger-haired teen confirmed her role in the rescue mission and they all continued on, finally being able to make better progress than in the past few times that they've tried.
"So, we're clear on the plan you guys?" Leo asked his team one last time before they headed out of the sewer lair with weapons in hand. Also, with 'the plan' drilled in their heads and 2-3 weeks worth of vigorous training, that let out of their frustrations and determinations to have you out of Shredder's clutches for good, in their bodies and spirits.
"That's gotta be the most pointless thing you said all day, Leo. We know the plan already, don't we?" Raph dared to comment his slightly older and more mature, level-headed brother.
"I know you do, Raph. I'm just making definite sure." Leo only replied with a frustrated-turned-relief sigh.
Master Splinter was also there with them, as he waited to see them off to have you returned back home safely, "My sons, and family," he began addressing them, "bring Norio Kimiko back home to us. Remember your training and watch out for one another along the way."
A father/sensei of great young warriors such as those before Hamato Yoshi, could not have said it better, "Hai Sensei!" came the proud, unified response of his faithful students. They, then were off without any other word.
"Please," Master Splinter then muttered longingly after them and also towards himself, "bring young Norio Kimiko back home."
