Emma lays on the floor sit in the padded cell huddled in a small ball asleep, after the psychiatrist left the room the officers escorted April out much to Emma's protest and cries.

So April held her close rocking her until she fell asleep before finally being dragged away by the police.

Emma twist and turns in her sleep growling a little grunting scrunching up her face. The officer stand guard of her room hears the sounds and looks inside.

Suddenly Emm coughs roughly and horsely before a small sample of blood splats on the floor, the guard squints his eyes suspiciously but shrugs his shoulders, choosing to ignore it. What he didn't see was the blood crawling and moving on it's own towards the crack in the wall disappearing.

................................................

The sudden sound of Thunder wakes Emma "Ugh huh? Wha Whats that noise? I-Is it raining?" Emma rubs her eye a little standing up from the floor walking over to the window, she sees all the cops standing outside looking shocked and taken back.

A giant portal had opened up in the skies over the city, and pieces of what looked like a giant spaceship were coming through. People look up at the sky some had face of shock some had faces of fear.

"Whoa." Emma looked up in awe at the giant space ship in the sky.

The door opens and April walks though the door with a smile on her face "Come on Emma lets go."

"Where are we going?"

"We're going to go see your brothers."

Emma's eyes light up with joy as she jumps up and runs over to April let her carry her out of the room.
Emma turns to see the chief and some officers there to escort her, she flinches a little hiding her face in April's chest.

"It's ok they're gonna help." Casey ruffles her hair gently, any officer steps up clearing his throat looking at Emma "I-I'm so sorry I called you and your ... brothers monster I had no idea what you went though."

Emma blinks her big eyes for a second and slowly reaches out to the man who looked skeptical on what she about to do

She gently pats his head

"My daddy always says that some people say things they don't mean cause they're scared or don't understand something, it's ok I forgive you."

The police officer looks up at her and gives a small smile, the chief steps up looking at the little girl gesturing for them to follow her

"Come on we don't want to keep your family waiting."

................................................

For a few minutes Donnie, Leo, Mikey and Raph stared apprehensively at the two manhole covers above their heads. The alleyway was suspiciously quiet, the turtles were skeptical.

Emma holds April's hand looking at the alley with a worried face

What if they don't come?

What if they were afraid the police would arrested them or take them to a lab and experiment on them like they did her?

What if this whole thing was a trick?

"Where are they?" She looks up at April a little scared, squeezing.

"Don't worry sweetie they'll be here I promise." April gives her a small smile gently squeezing her hand back.

"You sure they're coming?" Police Chief Rebecca

"They're coming," April nods confidently

Raph pushed aside the first manhole while Leo moved the second one, with Donnie and Mikey following as they went above ground to face the NYPD.

The police clicked their guns aiming at the turtles who cautiously slowly walked forward, hands in the air to show that they meant no harm.

"Hold your fire," Vincent ordered and as the call was repeated twice more, she and a few officers move out of the way letting April take a step towards them. She lets Emma step forward to see her family

The Turtles hold their breath every brother even Raph was almost brought to tears seeing their sister after what felt like forever

But the one person who was definitely tearful, was Emma.

She chews her sleeve, something she normally did when she was scared or worried.

Leo steps forward a little to her, he slowly gets down on one knee. He gives Emma a big smile opening his arms out to her

Tears roll down Emma's face as she runs into Leo's arms embracing him crying hysterically on his shoulder hugging his neck tightly. "Shh I got ya 幼い妹 I got ya it's okay its okay." Leo rocks her a little kissing her head holding her close not wanting to let her go

*幼い妹 means baby sister in Japanese*

"Hey munchkin I missed ya." Mikey wipes a tear hugging his sister squishing her cheeks making her laugh/cry with joy.

"You had me really worried Em are you ok? Did they hurt you?" Donnie inspects her face kissing her cheek "No I'm okay Donnie." Emma hiccups letting him wipe her tears away

"They didn't mess with you did they?" Raph glares at the chief and the police ready to abort the mission and kick some ass right then and there

"No but I would have kicked their butt if they did." Emma smirks at him making Raph chuckle a little giving her a light noogie "Atta Girl."

"What... are you?" Chief Vincent

"We're not really into labels," Mikey replied.

"Some call us freaks," Leo said. "Monsters."

"Let's just say we're four brothers from New York who hate bullies and love this city," Raph added

"And right now, we're the city's best hope," Donnie added.

Vincent scoffed. "Why should I believe you?"

"You don't have to take it from us," Leo gesturing a head nod to Vern "Take it from him."

Vern froze as all eyes turned to him. "Go ahead, Vern," April said. "Tell her about the arrangement."

He chuckled nervously. "What arrangement?" The five siblings glared at him and Raph cracked his knuckles, Emma narrows her eyebrows to him making her eyes glow a little, suddenly Vern yells out in pain as his underwear shoots up, he tries to reach his back but he was unsuccessful "Daddy says it's not nice to lie Vern." Emma pokes her lip out pouting at him in warning.

"Oh, that... arrangement."

Emma's eyes flicker off as she lets him go Vincent raised an eyebrow confused, he rubs his butt and sighed. "Look, the Falcon is still the Falcon," he told her. "I just... may have gotten by with a little... help from my friends." He looked at the siblings as he said this. "These guys are the ones who took Shredder down the first time. I was kind of more of a wingman."

"We've been doing our part to protect this city," Leo added, "from the shadows."

Everyone looked up as pieces of the Technodrome flew overhead, some of them bumping into buildings before joining together.

Leo continued, "We're gonna need -"

"Strategy," Raph cut in, holding out his right hand.

With a smile, Leo placed his hand on top of Raph's. "Instinct."

"Logic." Mikey placed his hand on Jaya's.

"And boatloads of heart," Donnie grinned, placing his hand on top, they all look at Emma "Get in here squirt." Raph gestured her to join

Emma places her hand on top looking at her oldest brother "Are we gonna kick butt?" He gives his little sister a trusting smile.

"Big Butt."
