*Mikey's POV*

Leo charged at Kitanna, blades going nuts. My eyes widened as he got dangerously close to her with his blades. Normally he waited for Raph to attack first.

I sighed with relief when she dodged it with ease. Leo went after her, swinging and playing offense for a while, until Kitanna dodged him well enough to cause him to fall. She smirked and poked his pressure point, causing his body to go into a spazzing fit.

"One down..." She started as she dodged an attack from Raph.

It was then I realized she was trying to play defense. She didn't want to attack us head on. I had her weakness thingy!

I noticed Raph get kicked to the wall. Maybe she wasn't really playing defense.

Donnie and I teamed up and went for Kitanna. Her eyes darted from me to Donnie quickly, making sure one of us wouldn't move before the other.

I decided to make the first move. Bad idea. Kitanna turned, caught my nunchucks and flipped me on my back.

Donnie took the opportunity to swing. He swung once, she ducked. He swung a second time, she jumped. He swung a third time, and hit the ground. There was no one to hit.

"What the-" Donnie began. He started looking around frantically.

I heard scurrying above. I looked up to see Kitanna clutching to a ceiling beam. She inched to a beam above Donnie.

I had to warn him. "Donnie! Look out-!"

But it was too late. Donnie looked up and was knocked down by the girl hurdling down from above. Donnie fell back into me while Kitanna landed lightly on her feet.

I thought the fight was over, but Raph came back in swinging. His "battle cry" alarmed Kitanna, and she quickly dodged... again.

She had to be tiring out. I was out of breath already, and I haven't done anything. Maybe I need to lay off some pizza... nah.

The two of them quarreled for a while. I could tell they both were holding back.

"Not that I really should care, but Master Splinter did say not to-" I was interrupted by Leo, who stood once again and had his swords blazing.

He ran towards Kitanna, who was holding back Raph's sai that were pointed at her. They both had the same focused look on, but the glint in their eyes showed that they were both holding back.

Leo, however, was not. Not at all. He attacked, but never made it near Kitanna. She pushed Raph back and jumped to the ceiling again. Leo missed by inches, hitting the ground with his katanas.

He let out a growl that didn't sound human... Well, mutant in this case. When did he get this angry? What does he have against Kitanna? She hasn't done anything wrong!

I glanced at Donnie and we both backed away and sat in our spots. This fight was getting a little too heated for our liking.

It was then that I started glancing around the room, trying to ignore the kicks and punches thrown by my friend and brothers. My eyes rested on the photo of Sensei and his family.

Well, what was supposed to be. The photo was different. There was only one baby in the picture, wrapped in a black cape thingy.

I turned to Donnie and tapped his shoulder. He looked at me and I pointed to the picture. He followed my eyes until his were staring at the photo as well.

Then we looked back at each other, both questioning the same thing.

Who was that?

----------------------------------------------

*Splinter's POV*

This child could fight. Her strikes were confident, her movement swift and silent. Just like my beloved...

As I was lost in thought I turned to see Michelangelo and Donatello staring at the photo of...

Uh oh. I left the photo of Yukiko in the frame. They would question me about it, no doubt.

I quickly turned my head back towards the session. How would I explain this?

I focused on the movements of Kitanna. If she was who I thought she was, I would be filled with joy. Actually, more then joy.

Then, after the miscellaneous kicks and punches, Kitanna did the unthinkable. The true sign of my prediction.

After being kicked back again, Leonardo and Raphael teamed up and ran at her in separate directions. She looked at both of them and half smiled. She leaped in the air, spun three times and split-kicked both my sons in opposite directions. Then she landed perfectly on her toes.

This... this had to be... but... it... it couldn't...

"This session over," I concluded.

Kitanna bowed and went over to help Rapael up. He gladly accepted her hand and she hoisted him up.

She then went over to Leonardo and offered him her hand. He glared at her and brushed the hand aside, helping his own self up.

I frowned at my oldest son's actions. I have to do something about this.
