TMNT 2007: NightWatching Love (Raph X Jamie)

Chapter 18: Winters Being Betrayed

Casey and April went back to their apartment to prepare to get Leo back. Casey suited up and packed any sport-related things he had. Then he noticed April with an awesome ninja outfit.

"Whoa," he gaped.

"I got it on my last trip to Japan. You like it?" she said, modeling it a little.

"Oh, yeah," he answered.

Then she bent down and got a metal hockey mask.

"No way," he gasped.

"You can't go trick-or-treating without your mask," she teased, giving him the mask.

"Oh, babe. Thanks," he smiled.

BACK AT THE LAIR...

Splinter had given Jamie and Skylar outfits to join the fight. Jamie's was pink while Skylar's was blue (A/N J- left; S- right). They sheathed their weapons and went to the others. Mikey and Skylar fist bumped then she hugged Donnie and when Raph saw Jamie, his jaw dropped.

She giggled and asked, "You like what you see?"

He smirked and answered, "Definitely. And...I'm sorry about the fight. I was just mad at Leo for always bossing us around and I thought it was to get us to do whatever he wanted."

Jamie smiled and replied, "It's okay, but I'm not the one you need to apologize to."

They hugged and everyone couldn't help but stare and smile. Or in Mikey's and Skylar's case, couldn't help but stare and snicker. The couple parted and just smiled.

"By the way, look what I'll be fighting with," she said and showed him her sais.

He chuckled and put an arm around her.

"They are so perfect for each other," Mikey whispered.

"I know, right?" Skylar whispered back.

They parted again, Jamie put her mask on, and said, "Come on, let's get Leo back."

AT WINTERS CORP...

The Foot were following Karai outside of Winters Corp to the gates to keep guard.

"As ordered, no one gets into the tower, no one interferes, no one bears witness," she reminded.

That's when they heard a knock on the gates. She made the clan disperse before she answered the door.

"You've got to be kidding me," she said.

There in front her was Casey wearing the Cowabunga Carl head.

"Cowabunga, dude. I'm here for little Maxie's 13th birthday party," he said.

"Leave now," Karai ordered.

"Oh, but you don't understand, lady," Casey replied, trying to explain.

Meanwhile, April, Skylar, Jamie, Raph, Donnie, Mikey, and Splinter climbed over the wall and made it over.

Inside the building, Winters, dressed in his armor from 3,000 years ago, set his helmet to the side and the stars of Kikan aligned. The portal traveled from one star to the next until it came to earth and it activated.

"At last! After 3,000 years, the time is finally at hand!" he shouted proudly.

The cylinder cages started turning towards the portal, but one of them (the one that had Leo inside, still unconscious) didn't do it and sparked a little. Winters knew what happened and turned to his statue siblings.

"What-? What have you done?" he demanded.

"Your time for giving orders is over," Aguila said.

"You don't understand. I want to send these creatures back to where they came from. To undo the damage that was done so many years ago," Winters tried to explain.
