Ex officer Arthur faces the Shredder
Shredder POV
Meanwhile back at the foot headquarters Karai who had been returned to her prison cell called to me. "Might I ask you a question?"
I only grunted in response and so Karai continued. "Why do you want Razhar and Tiger Claw to bring the officer the girl was found with here to the lair?"
"He needs to be taught a lesson one he won't soon forget" I replied.
"What did he do to arouse your anger? It can't be because of that girl? Who is she to you anyway? I heard you saying she is your daughter. How can that be? I thought you said your daughter was dead. That I was the only daughter you would ever need or ever wanted? What changed?"
" You betrayed me, you chose to fight alongside our enemies. Need I remind you, you are the one who decided that You were no longer going to call me father. That despite all that I have done for you, you chose to end that relationship. I am following your wishes. Consider yourself lucky. Normally I rid myself of those I no longer to be of use to me. You are still alive because I allow it. Don't push your luck."
"Why are you doing this to me? You called me daughter, and raised me as your own. Why raise me as your daughter if you were going to dispose of me the moment I found out the truth? What was your motives behind kidnapping me? Why can't you just leave Splinter and the turtles alone? Why must you always seek revenge? Wasn't killing my mother, kidnapping me, lying to me for years and turning me agents my own father enough revenge?" Karai demanded.
I turned to face Karai, and knelt down next to her cage. "when I told you that Hamato Yoshi murdered your mother it wasn't a lie. It has always been and will always be his fault that she is dead. He pursued a relationship with her knowing how I felt. To make matters worse, his clan was responsible for the death of my clan. The truth is our families have been mortal enemies for sentries. That was not going to change just because I had once called him brother. I created the foot clan in order seek my revenge. Revenge was to be mine however, your mother took the blow that was meant for him. I rescued you from the fire, Hamato Yoshi was to die believing I had taken everything from him. However, he managed to escape. He refused to die honorably. For years he never knew of your existence. That is until you had to go and blab your reason for hating him to that turtle in blue. If it wasn't for me, that rat would have never known you were alive. I raised you, loved you like my own daughter and you chose to throw that away. I wanted him to die knowing you hated him and now because of your weakness my ultimate revenge will never be complete. I won't rest until you come to the realization that Everything I have done I have done out of love for your mother and for you. One day you will call me father once more. One day you will see the error of your ways and serve me again. As for the girl she is my biological daughter."
"I wouldn't hold your breath! I will never serve you again and I will never call you father. You never answered my question. What did that man do to make you so angry?"
"He kidnapped my daughter and turned her against me. I paused and was about to continue but Karai interrupted me.
"Humm. Now Why does that sound so familiar?" She asked sarcastically. "Oh that's right, you've done the exact same thing! What's the matter? Don't like being on the other end of your own act of revenge? Why punish him when he's just like you?"
"He is nothing like me!" I replied. "What I did I did out of love.What he did he did to make a fool out of me and no one makes a fool of me. He challenged my authority and now He shall pay."
"Are you sure this is what your daughter would want? For You to mutate the only father she has ever known? For once consider someone else's feelings besides your own." Karai replied.
"Enough! He will be punished! Nothing you can say will change that!" I replied with a slight growl.
"What if your daughter hates you for doing this?" Karai asked.
I paused to consider this, perhaps Karai was right. However, I pushed that idea aside and replied, "I highly doubt my daughter cares what happens to this man. He bullied and he abused her. I'm sure she hates him for that. She will thank me for this!"
Karai sighed and shook her head, Why did she even bother trying to reason with me? He would never listen. Suddenly Karai and my conversation was cut short by the arrival of Tiger Claw and Razhar.
"Master,"
"What?" I looked up to see Razhar and Tiger Claw standing in the door way. "I thought I ordered you to retrieve the cop!" I growled.
"Yes Master, Tiger Claw replied "but we thought....
"Thinking is a dangerous thing. It's not your job to question my orders, it's your job to obey them!"
"Yes Master, it's just that we thought it might be easier to fulfill your orders if you send someone like Hun to retrieve him." Tiger Claw replied.
"I don't want excuses I want results! Why would you possibly think it would be easier for Hun to capture him?"
"According to what we've been told he freaks out at the sign of mutants. It might be easier to retrieve him if the purple dragons were given the task, plus they know his habits better then we do. I bet they know where he is right now." Tiger Claw replied.
"Fine! Have the purple dragons capture him but you are to bring Him to me!"
Arthur POV
Soon the purple dragons surrounded the man I had always thought was her father. "What do you thugs want?" He asked glaring at them. "You picked the wrong person to try to rob, I'm armed. I'm not afraid of you clowns!"
"What about us?" Razhar and a Tiger Claw asked rounding the corner "are you afraid of us?"
Officer Arthur gulped. What did these strange creatures want from me?. "Stay away from me I'm warning you!"
Razhar smiled, "just how do you think your going to stop us? With that puny gun? Don't be ridiculous! Your coming with us !" he said with a snicker.
"I have no intention of going anywhere with you, what ever you are." I replied trying to sound confident. I was failing miserably.
"What makes you think you have a choice?" Tiger Claw asked with a growl as he grabbed me by my collar and threw me into the technodrome.
Soon these creatures were kneeling before the Shredder and forcing Me to do the same. "Master we have succeeded in retrieving your daughter's kidnapper." They replied pushing Me forward but still forcing me to bow before the Shredder.
"At last we meet. I've heard so much about you!" The Shredder replied rising from his throne.
I glared up at the Shredder. "What do you want from me? Who are you?"
The Shredder chuckled. "I'd have thought that would have been obvious. You stole something from me and now you shall pay for it." The Shredder replied.
Suddenly it hit Me who this man standing before me was, he was crystal's ex husband. I was well aware that this man was responsible for all the mutants that had been running around his city. That these mutants had once been humans who had betrayed or failed him in some manner. I had the feeling he was next. So he did the smart thing and changed his tone to one of respect. "Please, I never meant any harm. I fell in love with your wife the moment I saw her. I was only doing what Crystal asked of me. Had I known that they were your wife and daughter I never would have agreed to conceal them from you. Please forgive me. Please just let me go. I'll do anything you want. I'll pay you whatever you want. Just please don't kill me."
The Shredder cocked an eyebrow, "Kill you? What made you think that I'd kill you? I've got something far worse planed for you." The Shredder replied with an evil chuckle.
I gulped. "what are you going to doing to me?"
"You kidnapped my daughter, made her afraid of me, turned her against her family, and were physically and verbally abusive to her. Your nothing but a pitiful excuse for a man. Since you love to pick on those who are weaker then yourself I think it's high time the tide was turned. However, if you pledge your undying loyalty to me I may spare your miserable life. Make your choice, I'm a very busy man and I don't have all day."
"I'll serve you, in whatever manner you wish of me. Just please don't turn me into some kind of monster."
"That is perhaps the smartest decision you ever made in your entire life. However, unfortunately I have already decided your fate. Shredder said with a chuckle. With that Baxster infuse me with a combination of and porcupine and skunk DNA. Soon I was reborn and the Shredder decided to call me Sukankunaxumi the combination of the Japanese word for Skunk and porcupine. "Sukankunaxumi do you pledge your undying loyalty to me? Or shall I have Baxster dispose of you?"
"I pledge my loyalty to you, Master, what is thy bidding?" Sukankunaxumi replied with a bow.
"Your first take is to locate my daughter and return her to me." The Shredder ordered sitting back down on his throne.
"As you wish Master!" I replied, "I will fetch her right away."
"Oh and Sukankunaxumi, Catherine not to be harmed. Is that clear?"
"Yes master!" I replied. However, I had no intention of keeping my word. Regardless of the Shredder's orders I was going to make Catherine pay, I didn't care what the consequences were. Besides, what else could the Shredder possibly do to me? He'd already taken my life from me. Officer Arthur was no more, I was no longer part of the human race and it was all Catherine's fault.
