Frostfall (Leonardo X Female Reader)

Return to New York

this is one of my fav episodes. the soundtrack in this was so fitting and really played into the suspense. I highly recommend rewatching this ep and paying close attention to the music, especially when the turtles are in the party wagon.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was time to return to New York, to return home.

The turtles had completely changed the party wagon into a weaponized vehicle and they were proud of it. They all gathered their things from the farmhouse and packed everything inside. There wasn't much to bring, just their weapons, gadgets and other necessities. Donnie had to say goodbye to Dr. Cluckingsworth M.D and Raph was disturbed by the sight of his genius brother hugging a chicken with literally a giant brain. April said goodbye to her old farmhouse and made a note in her mind to bring everyone here for a few days just to enjoy themselves. Soon, they all got inside the wagon and Casey started the engine.

"Hello, New York City!" Mikey exclaimed happily as they all drove off towards the invaded city.

"All right, team. First, we track down Master Splinter and Y/N. Then we hunt for Karai and free the city." Leo explained upon arriving at the gates of the city.

"So what's the plan for a fearless leader? Ninja-y or all out attack?" Raph asked.

"Ninja-y. We park at the gate and sneak in. Then we split up and search for Master Splinter and Y/N." Leo replied, his heart racing at the thought that he would see you again.

However, they were stopped when a few spotlights were flashed on them. Mikey instantly began panicking but his brothers held him down and covered his mouth so he would refrain from making any more noises. A soldier approached Casey and told him that no one was allowed in or out of the city but as the army prepared their lasers, Casey put on his mask and smashed his foot on the accelerator pedal, forcing his way through the gates and made it inside.

It was deserted, no one was around and the streets were eerily quiet. It was a terrifying sight which made the gang's heart drop, especially at the thought of you trying to survive here. Mikey wondered if the Kraang had mutated the entire population and April said she was picking up thoughts from only a few hundred people, meaning there were millions missing. They soon ran into Kraang soldiers, so the turtles got to test out the Party Wagon's soda cannons and stink bombs, both of which prove effective as they made their escape. Using the Shellraiser's old subway access hatch, they entered the subway. The group did some effective ninja-ing, evading Kraang robots. Donnie asked April if she could use her powers to find Splinter but April said that since Splinter's spirit had detached from his body, she wasn't sure what had happened to him. As for you, April simply couldn't find you. Somehow, you were far away for her powers to reach which disappointed Leo; he was so eager to find you. Mikey suggested that they start searching for you and Splinter at the lair.

At the lair, Donnie, Leo and Raph went inside and searched while Mikey, April and Casey stood behind. They were swift and quiet, using their ninja skills to the fullest. They each went into their rooms and Leo was surprised to feel that his bed was colder than usual. When he looked at the bed frame, he noticed some frost and he immediately knew it was you.

You had been in his room.

He couldn't blame you; you were scared and likely wanted to rest at a familiar place that would bring you comfort. God, he just wanted to find you right now and tell you that you were safe again. However, he would only be able to do that once he found you. The three brothers then went for the dojo and they were extra sneaky so as to avoid the robot security system. Leo went inside Splinter's room but found no one. They then rejoined with the others, breaking them the news that they couldn't find anyone. It was then April suddenly made a psychic connection with Splinter and led the turtles to their master. After they all follow her, they found him only to discover that instead of acting like an experienced ninja, he acted like a savage rat, biting and attacking anything in his path. As they tried to calm Splinter down (including keeping him from chewing Casey's face off), and talk some sense to him, a Mouser called in for backup, and Foot soldiers appeared. Despite their best efforts, Splinter got captured by Foot soldiers and was brought to the Shredder.
