Chapter 5 - CH:5 Subway Fiasco

Donatello and Leonardo were riding on top of the subway train that was going in the same direction as the hostages were being held by the Foot Clan.

"Donnie, can you get eyes on the targets?" asked Leo.

"No problem, bro." Don says as he adjusts his glasses before he hits a button on an access panel strapped to his forearm. A huge hollow screen expands before him in a semicircle, highlighting all the heat signatures in the upcoming subway station. "Looks like there are a few dozen if you count the ones bringing in the last of the hostages." He casually says without taking his eyes off his monitor.

Leo gives a little confirming nod before he adds, "Okay, we need an advantage. Got any bright ideas?"

Don mumbles mostly to himself, "Well... We could..." He starts fiddling with his wrist gadget for a moment, looking through different scanning settings on his hollow screens before his shell cell went off.... It was a panicked Vern. He kept hollering about April running off into danger again and unsurprisingly gave the turtles the same location that they were heading towards.

Meanwhile, April and Roxy were sneaking into the subway station.... And Roxy found out first-hand how terrible April is at avoiding getting caught by the enemy since she had been nearly been caught a few dozen times, not that she was counting but at least April had her there to help her out. It was almost like April was trying to get caught the whole time.

Roxy had not used her kitsune magic in so long she was afraid that she may be a bit rusty. Luckily that was not the case since it seemed like her magic was just as strong as it ever was. Every time April was close to being discovered, Roxy used her kitsune magic to distract or redirect the enemy away from her dear friend.

She kept it up until... Someone snuck up behind Roxy and grabbed her by her beautiful platinum hair. He dragged both her and April by the hair to a section of the subway station where hostages were held.

The brute was rough enough in handling his two new hostages that he reminded Roxy of how she was treated in her past. She was sick of always being held as a victim... Yet she was glad she took a few self-defense lessons as she was ready to judo flip this whack job on his back. She glanced over at her roomie to see if she could get the redhead on board when she noticed that April was smirking and decided against her first plan. She opted for a more discreet route of revenge and when they were thrown to the floor she couldn't help but growl at the man a bit secretly. Catching April off guard as she was pulling out her cell phone to take some pictures.

Roxys eyes widened with realization and new found determination, then she slowly got to her feet... She thought to herself, 'Am I really gonna let myself lay here and prove that bastard right!? NO!' Roxy stood up and let out a fierce growl as she spoke, "How dare you do this to innocent people! You want a fight then fight ME!"

The woman that seemed to be leading these terrorists, turned and looked at a now glowing pale woman. Even though she was shocked she reacted quickly with her highly trained reflexes and raised her gun. But, when the lights flickerd in signaling an incoming train right before they went out completely, a voice echoed through the tunnel, "ALL ABORD HAHA!"

The womans eyes widened as she shouts to her subordaniates, "NICO-SAI!"

That was all the distraction Roxy needed for her to shift for the first time in three years. As soon as the lights were out, Roxy managed to transform to her snow white ears, tail, and get her claws out. She narrowed her glowing bright vivid purple eyes and went after the leader ninja girl by pouncing on her. Then jumping back on to her feet with an effortless back flip, completely reacting off of forgotten instincts. The young kitsune could see everything in the dark and she could see the woman clutching her head from hitting concrete. As well as two large warriors joining her in the fight against the rest of these ninja brutes. One handling two katanas and the other a long bo staff, both handling their weapons as if it's an extension of their own body.

Roxy let out a beastly growl as her large, pointed fox like ears were pined flat against the top of her head.

With all the fighting that Roxy didn't recognize earlier, she was pushed into the way of an oncoming train. As she looks up to see the bright lights of the train, her ears droop and she couldn't help but whimper.

Just then, out of nowhere a strong slender arm wraps around her and with incredible speed they move to the next platform, to safty. The tether that he used to swing over to her comes loose, bringing down some rubble with it.

She looked up at her savior to see a large turtle looking man that reminded her of some of the kappa yokai she saw in her home village. He had what appeared to be a bunch of tech of the humans on him as well as a purple mask with large framed glassed resting on his nose over the mask.When he looked back at her she was graced with a pair of warm brown eyes, "Are you okay, miss?"

Roxy stared at him wide eyed for a few minutes then said, "W-who are you?"

Suddenly the train that was about to pass screeches and jumps the track as it hit the small pile of rubble. Causing the train to derail and smash into the wall right beside where they were standing, which caves in the tunnel. Thus trapping a confused and frightened Roxy with a more or less flustered six foot tall turtle.

Once Donnie realized that he's still holding the female, he flushed and gently put her down and began to stammer, "I-I am S-S-Sorry M-miss!"

Finally back on steady ground, roxy gets a good look at her savior. He has beautiful warm brown eyes that she couldnt help but stare at, 'Who is this young kappa? He has eyes are the color of tiger gems... He also is muscular for such a skinny turtle.' Her ears popped up with her curiosity.

Donnie just stared with wide eyes, he was more curiose than scared or worried, "Fasinating... you must be what master splinter called, a kitsune..."
