"Give me ten days, and I can give you ten reasons not to die." Evan paused. "And if I can't change your mind by then, you can go jump off that cliff."

"In Saskatchewan, when I couldn't fall asleep, I'd watch the moon and think about how across the country and over the border, you were probably out on a rooftop beneath the same moon. You were the first person I enjoyed the moon with. Every other time, I was alone." The Kraang's plot to take over New York has succeeded. The turtles, Destiny, April, Casey, and Diaval have managed to escape to the outskirts of the city, but not without loss. With Leonardo gravely injured and their Sensei gone, the moods of the group are pessimistic at best. Their minds are stuck on the city they left behind, but they know that they can't go back. Not yet. Now, they have to get used to living in April's family farmhouse; cleaning, training, and cooking for themselves. Of course, the lives of the turtles and those near to them are never normal. There are plenty of new mutants, both friend and enemy, lurking in the moonlit shadows of the forest around them, making their lives all the more interesting. All the while, they're healing from physical and mental wounds, helping each other grow stronger, and learning more and more about the past, present, and even the future.

"I'll tell you all the stories you want." In New York, the buildings are quiet as the people of Manhattan sleep. By the glow of the moon, the silhouette of a girl stands atop a roof, her arms crossed as she watches the celestial body with wild green eyes. A heavy sigh escapes her mouth, the dull ache of loneliness reminding her that she's alive; she survived another night. Even so, she can't help but wonder what she's missing. Normal doesn't suit Destiny's lifestyle. Through some happening when she was only a baby, she was transformed into a wolf-human hybrid. She did everything for herself, by herself. She escaped her captors, she gave herself a name, she learned to protect herself and survive on the harsh streets, and above all, she never showed her face to any human. She's a mutation living in the shadow of the moonlight, and to her, that's the way it'll always be. She's cursed to be a lone wolf, watching the moon and dreaming of how it could be different.
