Introduction.

Darkness is more than the absence of light he’d been told, it was a feeling a sense of nothing and everything all at the same time, it was true. If he sat still enough for long enough he could feel darkness’s texture with his mind’s eye it slipped around him like dark water, frightening yet oddly soothing, when he felt darkness he felt nothing else no pressure no obligation no one else just him and the dark. His brothers found other ways to shake off the day, noisy technical and aggressive ways, while he retreated to the dojo to commune with the dark.

They never asked to join him, and he didn’t mind. Them not being here made it all that much easier for him to maintain his serine persona, they didn’t need to know the brother they all called leader liked to hide alone in the dark. He knew he never seemed quite the type dark angst was more of a Raphael thing, Raph’s temper was better suited to it, and so he kept it to himself.

Chapter 1

Things had been bad lately the foot were growing more and more aggressive, Saki seemed almost desperate to be rid of them. The feeling was mutual they had been thorns in each others sides for far to long, every attempt to wipe each other out ended without success, they always came back, he always came back.

A fleeting thought of a peaceful existence passed through Leo’s mind as he watched the ninja on the next rooftop, he wondered if his brothers ever felt this way. He knew Raph did. Some times he wanted so badly to agree with Raph and take the easy way out of things but honor forbid it, and if he didn’t have his honor what else did he have? He tossed the thoughts aside, he’d come here for a reason.

It was always the same reason that brought him topside alone on a night like tonight, Karai. He had never met another ninja who didn’t want him dead; in fact it was pretty rare to meet anyone who didn’t want him dead ninja or not, trouble always had a way of following him. She was pacing the rooftop her long strides covering the tar papered terrain easily, her steps looked angry. He longed to speak with her but he knew it was too dangerous, for both of them, he couldn’t guess who she would be meeting on a rooftop in a slummy neighborhood at night but he was sure it had to do with the foot.

She had forcibly changed his opinion on the type of person who donned the red three pronged symbol unlike her master she had shown glimmers of honor, an honor which unfortunately had a tendency to fluctuate wildly leaving him divided in his feelings for her. The way she excused away her actions as serving her master infuriated him, she killed in the name of an evil man without a second though or moment of regret and he hated her for it. He would set his mind against her naming her an enemy sure she had no honor left and then she would come to his aid, swooping in with an unmatched grace to even the odds and save the day and all his faith would be restored . This dance had been going on forever, it was hard to hate something so much as he hated the foot only to see that judgment waver over a women.

Leo sat on the ledge watching as a stranger approached Karai, they started to talk Karai looking less and less comfortable as time passed and then it happened. With a quick smooth blow the stranger knocked Karai from the roof laughing and vanished back into the shadows.

The city had erupted in noise, from his vantage point he could see small explosions and fires erupting across the rooftops, it seemed the whole city had plunged itself into a burning chaos at the same moment the stranger had made his move.

He wasn’t sure what to do at first it was an unparalleled shock to him, the world had been so quite just a few minutes ago. He spun in a full circle checking his surroundings, small fires burned and he could see black figures scatter away a few streets over like rats from a sinking ship. The Foot.

He sprung off after them, chasing them down silently in the whirling smoky confusion that had taken hold of the New York skyline; despite Karai being the first to fall he was sure this was their doing. Damn Karai he had momentarily forgotten about her and it was too late to turn back, she’s fine he told himself and then pushed her to the back of his mind; he had other business to attend to.

The faster he ran after them the smokier it got, the air was choking him damn where was it all coming from. A stinging pain struck him across his arm in his distraction he had lost sight of the ninja in front of him , he cursed his lack of focus as he spared a moment to watch the tiny stream of blood trickle down his arm before easily dispatching his attacker.

It was little more than a scratch but it had cost him the pursuit his fleeing ninja were now no where it sight. Damn where did they go he wondered as the smoke grew thicker causing his eyes to water and more importantly where is all this smoke coming from. The line of smoke was coming straight at him on the wind noting its line he jumped off the right from rooftop to rooftop choking and coughing until the smoke began to thin. Must be some fire he thought only something huge could pump out that much smoke. He wiped the grime and tears from around his eyes with the back of his hand and surveyed his new surroundings, the source of the fire immediately becoming clear.

It was pumping out smoke like a volcano flames licking up its sides, he’d often pictured it this way but it had always been his own doing. Master Splinter needs to know he thought after a long moment of starring they all need to know what’s happened, he turned and speed of over the rooftops towards the lair leaving the burning tower behind him as the flames began to devour the red symbol painted on the side.
