(A/N: Fair warning for this chapter; it's probably (really) going to get dark/sad. We got that, peeps? Good. On with it, then)
The box revealed to you, and the others, your former 'choker contraption' of Baxter Stockman's as of last month's terrorizing torture and imprisonment. Again, you hoped Donnie had been able to make some beneficial changes to it.
The time sure has flown by fairly quickly.
"Where will me and my mother stay?" you asked them, looking towards your mother close by Master Splinter, "You know, after the Shredder, Kraang and their forces give up the 'chase' on us?"
At least a year later, you were fully back at your former kunoichi training level.
Also, the turtles have grown, and grown up remarkably, in your opinion.
They definitely have become all more impressive, than the first time that you've encountered them. As with this, they kept a close watch-out for Shredder, Kraang, and their other elite forces. They hoped, as much as you and your mother did, that they've given up.
(A/N: And now, to the more important parts of the story!)
General Point of View
"So, are you guys sure that we're safe?" you asked the turtles and your friends. They were all currently leading you and your mother towards your new apartment, which in fact, wasn't that far away from the manhole cover leading towards the Hamato sewer lair. Your mother had been able to afford for it, while you were all still down in the sewers.
"Positive." Karai implied, as she and Casey then quickly came to help your mother maneuver across the rooftops. The others gave you reassuring looks as well, so your and your mother might as well go along with it. You shrugged a bit, with a bit of an 'okay' kind of message being passed around. You then continued along the rooftops, towards you and your mother's new place.
But, only as you reached the rooftop as you and your mother's new apartment, that you began to feel the paranoia of being watched. You tried to tell the others of this, but then the others had already taken the hint from elsewhere.
"And so, the muted kunoichi, and her mother, have come out of hiding, at last." the Shredder had suddenly appeared before you all. He also already had his other mutant henchmen and Foot bots/soldiers to back him up, behind him, as well. You went all stiff with shock, as you saw the man, that you haven't been in 'contact' with, since of at least one year and a month. So now this meant, that he hadn't given up on you all, just yet.
"Don't you dare even think of it, Shredder!" Leo growled at Oroku Saki, him and the others pulling out their weapons as well. Your mother also grew terrified of the 'great' Foot Clan leader as well, and tried to hide away from him inside the close-by alleyway. Luckily though, he hasn't noticed this yet.
"Let's finish this, Hamato Clan, once and for all." the Shredder then said, his metal claws out and ready. The rest of his back-up then fully charged towards you and your friends, and the ultimate ninja fight of the century commenced.
~Timeskip~
The fight seemed to last an entire eternity, as both the Hamato and Foot Clan members went from the rooftops, towards the alleyway where your mother was currently hiding, behind a giant dumpster. She remained hidden in there, gaping at the intense action before her.
The ultimate battle was as follows; Leo and Karai against Tigerclaw, Raph and Casey against Fishface, Donnie and Mikey against Rahzar & April and you against Bebop and Rocksteady. The Foot bots/soldiers also tried to make the fight more 'interesting'. Shredder just stood there, and watched the entirety of it all unfold before him. But only until Master Splinter then suddenly showed up as well, as seeing that Leo had contacted their sensei for some sort of back-up.
