This was definitely not your apartment.

Pushing up from the huge bed that Donnie had moved you to after treating your wounds, your E/C gaze slid slowly around the room trying to figure out where the fuck you were. It wasn't that same warehouse you met the Purple Assholes. This place had a low hum of activity to it, between the wall absolutely covered with computer monitors and... was that cars honking?

Reaching to slide up your cover up, you freeze when your fingers skin over your own shoulder. No cotton coat or overall strap. Looking down, you frantically throw back the old comforter to expose the sterile bandages covering nearly every inch of your frame. You whirl around to see if there was anything to cover up with besides the bandages and blanket. You found a stack of clothes neatly folded on a worn old rolling chair at the edge of the mattress, with a little note reading 'Sorry about the clothes- or lack of them. Hopefully these will be okay.'

You pulled on the faded blue hoodie, the sleeves hanging well over your arms as the hem nearly touched your knees. The socks were warm but also oversized, what should be knitted crew socks almost met with the end of your hoodie. But they were much better than running around absolutely naked.

"When will she wake uuuuuup?!" A wailing voice sent your heart racing as it echoed out from behind a sliding metal door across the room. It sounded familiar too.

"Why do you care?" You pushed off the end of the bed, slowly standing to your full height to make sure you weren't going to pull out a stitch or staple.

"Just wanna say hi, jeez. Master might get to her first so I want to introduce myself." Master? Were they back in the 1800's?

"Yeah well yer not gonna get that chance. Donnie and Leo are already in the Hashi cuz of her and Master says if you try to make friends then you're next." First off, what the fuck is a Hashi? Second, why is that your fault? You spotted the handle to the door and struggled to push it open wide enough to slip out without being heard. The space on the other side was huge! At least twice the size of your apartment!

You didn't have time to admire because you had to duck behind a couch as shadows stretched up over the wall across the room. Shit! You forgot to close the door to that monitor room! You slid along the couch and peeked around the end to see if anyone had caught you yet. The whack of skin on skin made you jump and snap over towards the source- a closed off room with a sign over the threshold.

Hashi.

That's the room that Leo and Donnie are at apparently- why they are and why that's your fault is still a mystery since you've never seen any of this before. That made the other two voices Raph and Mikey if your memory serves you correct.

"Twelve hours in the Hashi..." That was a new person. He sounded a lot older than the others, wiser and tired. Maybe he was this 'Master' you were hearing of. You crept forward and pressed against the wall before leaning over and peeking into the room. Donnie- a lanky thing with a mass amount of gadgets and gizmos strapped to his arms and back with glasses on his nose and goggles on his head- was standing on a table laying flat on what looked like the base of a merry-go-round playing ping pong with himself whilst spinning. Leo was making a perfect split across two chairs, chopsticks holding a raw egg on each end and one sat balanced on his head. Had to admit, both were pretty impressive to manage since you couldn't even hold your own coffee upright.

Then you spotted the third party.

He wasn't as tall or bulky as the others, but he was still a sight to see. A giant rat stepped out of the shadows, walking on two legs like a person and even wearing an old robe like a traditional Japanese kimono. A long tail slithered out from beneath the robe and wrapped around a corner of the table Donnie stood on, flinging the wooden platform around much faster than it was going earlier- the brother making random sounds of nauseated terror.

"Hey, ain't that Leo's little girlfriend?" You had completely forgotten about the others you had been hiding from earlier, and the growling voice behind you made you jump with a tiny squeak of surprise. You almost turned around to see who was behind you, but out of the corner of your eye you saw that tail smack against Leo's ankle like he was trying to lift his leg higher and knock him off his chair supports.

"What is she- hey!" You moved before they could stop you and within seconds you stood between the giant rat and the blue-eyed... you still weren't sure what he was. You threw your arms wide to protect as much of Leo as you could, though it hardly mattered since he seemed well capable of taking care of himself. Plus you looked pretty stupid at the moment with your hoodie dress and slipping socks starting to bunch up around your ankles.

Donnie stopped his one-man ping pong match, the little plastic ball clinking across the concrete to break the absolute silence that had fallen in the Hashi. You knew that Raph and the other parkour nut- Mikey you were sure they called him on the roof- were both watching with wide eyes from the threshold to the room. Black eyes locked with E/C orbs burning with anger as you blurted out the first thing that came to mind.

"Who the fuck do you think you are?!"
