Forbidden love
By midnightrose
Chapter Five
The morning light moved its way across the room, inching its way up the bed and finally resting over the two sleeping lovers. Leo slowly opened his eyes, letting them adjust to the light before crawling out of bed. Grabbing his mask, pads, and swords, Leo headed downstairs to the kitchen. He first made a kettle of tea, and then went to work on preparing breakfast, the smell of eggs, bacon and toast smothering the air of the house.
Once he was done, Leo gathered the food and tea on two trays and slowly carried them upstairs, taking care not to spill anything. Using his foot to push open the door, Leo placed the trays on the bedside table then crawled back under the covers, pulling Karai close to him. Feeling something brush against her, Karai opened her eyes and turned to find her lover watching her, smiles appearing on both of their faces. Feeling fully awake, Karai sat up, leaning on one elbow so she was only inches away from Leo's lips. Leo didn't hesitate as he took her, kissing her passionately, devouring every last breath she gave to him. When they parted, Karai once again smiled.
" Good morning, my mate. "
" Good morning, angel."
Karai then lightly caressed Leo's cheek." Have you been watching me sleep long? "
" Not really. " Leo answered, returning the soft touch. He then turned to retrieve the trays, handing Karai hers before he settled back down beside her, noting how big her eyes grew when she saw the breakfast he had made. After pouring tea for the both of them, Leo began to eat. He glanced over at Karai and saw that she had already finished half of her plate and was working on her second cup of tea. This brought another smile to Leo's face.
After breakfast, Leo left Karai to dress while he cleaned up the kitchen. As Leo busied himself with the dishes, Karai crept up behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist. Her hands roamed over his plastron, touching the most sensitive layer of skin that was close to the front plates. Leo instantly groaned, his heart pounding in his chest, and he felt suddenly uncomfortable under his lower plates. Lifting his hands from the water, Leo grabbed Karai's hands and removed them, causing Karai to frown as he went back to the dishes.
" i'm sorry, le-chan. "
Leo turned from the sink and shook his head." no it's alright, karako. You did nothing wrong. I just don't want to start something. " He paused for a moment before continuing. " I just want to leave as soon as I'm done, and we can't do that if we're always in bed. "
Karai then giggled at Leo's words." Yes, I suppose you're right. "
Leo finished the dishes and then went upstairs, only to reappear moments later with two bags. Karai seized her bag from Leo, then they made their way to the barn. Inside, Leo jumped into the old truck and turned the ignition, but the truck refused to start. Again Leo tried to turn the engine over, and again the truck refused to start. Walking around to the front of the truck, Leo popped open the hood, hoping that whatever was wrong with it would be something simple. He leaned over and looked inside, finding nothing out of place, but he still reached inside to make sure. Leo became so lost in his tinkering that he didn't notice that Karai had climbed out of the truck and was now standing beside him. She watched as he played around with the various wires and plugs, the sweat beading across his forehead.
As she watched, Karai's thoughts wondered to the night before, remembering how it felt to under Leo's body, his strong arms holding her tightly. She could hear the echoes of the mingled cries again, and she replayed how their hot bodies moved as one under the sheets, the sweat pouring out from them. Karai felt a flush come over her face, and she shook the memories from her head, bringing her back to the man she loved, who was now fully covered in oil and sweat, and she couldn't help from laughing at the way he looked.
" I think I got it now." Leo looked over at Karai when he noticed her giggles." What's so funny, karako? "
" You! " Karai said between her laughs." You're covered in oil! "
Walking over the truck's side mirror, Leo noticed in his reflection the smear of oil across his forehead from when he wiped back the sweat. There was also a large spot on his beak from when he had scratched his nose. Letting out a laugh, Leo grabbed a ragged towel from the workbench behind him and wiped his face, the smell of the oil still lingering on his skin. Going back to the truck, Leo tried the ignition once more, and he was completely satisfied when the engine purred under the hood.
Leaving Karai to wait in the truck, Leo ran back to the house to quickly shower. After returning to the barn, Leo kissed Karai once more before they settled into the truck and drove down the long driveway. For the rest of the drive, Leo and Karai talked about the things that interested them, and how Master Splinter and Leo's brothers were upset at the both of them. A few hours down the road, they stopped to eat and stretch, then set back out on the road. Before long, Karai fell asleep, and Leo watched her sleep for a moment before turning his attention back to the road.
April's eyes darted back to the mirror, watching the trailer that was attached to the back of the car, wondering how her friends inside the trailer were doing. She looked back at Casey, who was driving, then again to the trailer, wishing she knew the reason why they were traveling halfway across the state. Inside the trailer, Master Splinter sat with his legs crossed and his eyes closed. Next to him, he could hear his sons argue over who had won the last hand of poker. Slowly, Splinter opened his eyes and came back to the real world.
" Master, tell this knuckle head that my three of a kind beats his two pair! "
" How about I knock you out with my two pairs of fists? "
Splinter held up his hand, demanding silence." Enough! Both of you! "
Across the trailer, Donatello sat on a box, one leg crossed over the other, his eye ridge raised at his brothers. After they had settled, Don thought it might be time to ask his master the question that had bothering him since they had left New York. He crawled over to where his master was and took a seat next to him.
" Master Splinter, can I talk to you? "
Splinter nodded." What troubles you, my son? "
" Well, " Don scratched his head. " Why are we going to this temple? "
Splinter smiled. " We are going to visit an old friend. "
" At a Buddhist temple? " Raph commented.
" Raphael, his name is Hademato Hagi, and he was a good friend of my Master Yoshi. " Splinter replied. " Hagi and my master knew each other many years ago in Japan. When my master came to America, he lost contact with Hagi. After a year, my master received a letter from Hagi, who had also moved to America and was now a monk in a Buddhist temple here in New York. " Splinter paused once again, trying to catch his breath. " My master and I visited the temple and Hagi many times. Even now, I still write to Hagi. "
" Does he know that we're mutants?" Donny asked.
Splinter nodded." Yes, Donatello, and as a monk, he has given me his word of honor that he would not speak a word about us to anyone else at the temple. "
Mikey then jumped in with his own question. " Do you think Leo is already there? "
Silence then filled the trailer, lasting for what seemed like hours. Splinter sighed, saddened that all his sons knew about Leo was that he might have gone there to meditate and pray. Mikey stared at Splinter, his eyes focusing on the sorrow in his master's face, and then he decided not to push the subject any more. Next to him, Raph and Don whispered to each other, but Mikey was stuck on his own thoughts.
What's Master Splinter hiding from us?
Shaking the thought from his head, Mikey returned his attention to his brothers and the cards in his hands.
" Your deal, dude. " He said as he handed the cards to Raph.
" Ya, I know, " Raph replied, then looked at his other brother. " Hey, Donnie. You want in? "
Donatello shook his head and went back to the box he had occupied before." No thanks. I've been meaning to finish this book. "
Raph shrugged, dealing out the cards to Mikey." Your loss, man. "
Master Splinter watched them play cards, and before long, the trailer was filled with their arguing, once again about who was the bigger cheater. For once, it made the old rat smile, and he went back to his meditation, his thoughts on his oldest son.
Soon, everyone will know why I was so secretive.
________________________________________________________________________
As the sun began to set in the western sky, a form moved swiftly through the trees from branch to branch with great speed and stealth until she came upon a stone wall that surrounded a temple. She stopped suddenly, her dark eyes watching intently as two figures in hooded cloaks approached the temple. One of the figures moved to the entrance of the temple and pulled on a long rope, a bell sounding seconds later. The figure rang the bell three times, then stepped back as the doors opened and allowed the two figures to enter the confines of the temple. The ninja remained still, her eyes still focused on the temple. After the sun went down, six more figures approached the temple, four of the six dressed in the same hooded cloaks as the first two visitors. Again one of the figures rang the bell, and all six went inside.
Waiting for a few minutes after the figures entered the temple, the ninja jumped down from the branches to the ground below, landing steadily on all fours. She looked around before standing and walking out of the shadows. She was fairly tall for her Asian background, muscular and of medium build; her long dark hair flowed down her back. The black doji she wore fit her form well. On her back, she carried twin katanas, and a sheath that held a bow and arrows hung down her right hip. With great speed, the young ninja raced along the wall, her thoughts racing with the task at hand. She approached the entrance of the temple, and as she reached for the doors, a hand grabbed her shoulder and pulled her back into the shadows. The ninja quickly drew her sword and pinned her attacker against the wall, the sword close to the attackers throat.
" Miha! It's me! "
Shaking away her rage, the ninja focused her eyes to the young woman before her. She was much shorter than her, her features more Asian than her own. She also wore a black doji as well, and also carried a sheath that contained a bow and arrows. Tucked inside of her belt was a pair of sai, the chrome shining brightly in the moonlight.
" Yumi! " Miha dropped the sword and released the girl. " What are you doing here? "
Yumi regained her breath, her eyes still wide with fear. " Looking out for you! "
Miha frowned and glared at the girl." You followed me? "
Yumi nodded. " Yes, and it's a good thing too. What are you doing here? "
Miha looked back at the temple." You know why I'm here. "
" Miha-chan, " Yumi sighed, following her friend's eyes." You know you can't kill her if she's not here. "
Miha then smiled wickedly." Oh, she's here. One of those creatures is with her too. "
Letting out a long sigh, Yumi looked around the temple grounds, then returned to her friend and sister. For many years, Miha's clan had fought with the Foot and The Shredder in Japan. Then when Karai moved to New York, Miha was determined to finish what she had started with her. Miha was taken in by Master Yun, who was also Yumi's master. Yumi took Miha under her wing, watching after her like a big sister. The two became friends, and now stand together to protect their clan to the death.
" Miha, if you kill her here! " Yumi's words were cut short by Miha's sword, once again sitting inches from her throat, the rage in Miha's eyes burning intensely.
" I will kill her, Yumi! I must!"
Yumi stepped back as the sword was taken away." And what of the creature? "
" He is not my concern. " Miha collected herself, then looked at her friend. " Promise me you will not interfere. "
Yumi nodded in respect." Of course. This is your task, not mine. "
The wicked smile returned to Miha's face." Good. "
Yumi looked up as Miha leapt back on the wall and ran to the far end of the temple grounds, her heart weighing heavily in her chest as she waited for her friend to finish her task. Taking her eyes away from the wall to the edge of the woods, Yumi caught sight of something moving among the trees, but shook it off as an animal, and continued to wait patiently.
Just on the other side of the woods, a man sat and waited, his light brown eyes watching the temple ahead, his senses open to everything around him. Cursing about his poor view of the area, the man stood up, brushing out the wrinkles and creases in his dark jeans and black top. The breeze picked up again, carrying his long ponytail with it, and with one jump, the man leapt into the tree behind him and perched himself squarely on a thick branch. He pulled down a pair of heat-sensor goggles over his eyes and scanned the area, making sure that everything was secure. Then with a wave of his hand, more men appeared from the shadows. All were dressed in black from head to toe, their foreheads branded by the red mark of the Foot clan, and they all carried swords of various lengths. The man went back to watching the area around the temple and pondered his next move when his thoughts were interrupted by one of the foot soldiers.
" What is it? " The man hissed through his teeth.
The soldiers shrunk back, but held up the phone in his hand." It's the master. "
Uneasily, the man took the phone from the soliders hand and raised it to his ear, the shaking of his hand almost out pacing the pounding of his heart. All he could hear was his own uneven breathing until the silence was broken by the harsh voice of his master.
" Report Kash! "
Kash swallowed hard." Well, Master. It's as we feared. Mistress Karai is with the creature Leonardo. "
More silence followed before the Master spoke again." And? "
" And they have entered the temple. The rat and the other turtles have also gone in, along with two human companions. "
" I see, " The Master's voice faded a little at the news. Kash then remember what else he had seen.
" There are also two others here, Master. "
" Two others? "
Kash nodded to the phone, his eyes going back to the temple grounds. " Yes. Female ninja, both of which we know. "
" Miha and Yumi. " The Master didn't need to think before he spoke. " Interesting. Keep me informed of the situation. "
Kash bowed." Yes, Master. And what of Miharu? "
The Master let out a low chuckle." Let her try again. "
Kash frowned at the idea." But what if she succeeds this time? "
" Then we will deal with that when it comes. "
Kasn once again frowned but accepted his master's wishes." Yes, Master. I will contact you later. "
After hanging up the phone, Kash returned to his watch of the temple, then made the decision to storm the temple walls. With six of his best soldiers behind him, Kash moved over the clearing in lightening speed, stopping in the shadows before scaling the wall. Once up the wall, Kash noticed that the young woman that Miharu had left behind was no longer at her post, but had now joined Miha on the other side of the grounds, their attention fixed on a small building that sat on the far corner of the temple grounds. Kash looked around, happy that his view was better, but was discouraged that there was not much cover to hide him and his soldiers. The temple grounds were like a meadow, lots of grass and small flowers, and only a few small trees grew inside the wall. In each corner sat a tower, surrounded by sand, and each one contained three rock sculptures that held religious meanings to the monks that lived there.
Suddenly the two female ninja dashed for cover, which brought Kash's attention back to the building as several beings came outside and made their way across the grounds to another building. Gasping in shock, Kash recognized one of the figures, her embroidered red silk kimono blowing in the wind. She was holding the hand of a green skinned creature, who was also dressed in a silk kimono, his in blue. But what shocked Kash the most as the group past by his hidden army were the solid gold bands that they wore on their fingers.
" This can't be! "
