As the dim morning light filtered through the open panel door, Yuuta knelt down at the head of the small, wooden table.  A son on each side, he nodded silently as they picked up their hashi chopsticks.  Pouring his tea, he enjoyed the sound of the early birds singing their morning song.  As Yoshi and Saki ate their gohan and sakana, he was quite content to sip on his misoshiru.   Today would be spent in meditation, practicing the toh mantra.  Harmony was ever important this day, maybe even more so than any other day.  Three years ago, his enemy, Oroku Kaiji, was destroyed.  Yuuta had expected a great fight after the war that Kaiji raged on hi

There are not many clans left in this world.  As the Western ideology has spread across the globe, the people who have followed the true, ancient, honorable ways have begun fading away.  Instead of banding together, the few left have maintained feuds that have stretched on for generations.  Living outside conventional law, taking matters into their own hands, living as their families have for centuries.  There is little need for a police force when revenge is easily and quietly served. Flames continued roaring around the ninjutsu master as he listened quietly.  A whimper, a cry.  It was there, very evident.  His hardened face began to soften

“So you think I’m cheating on you?” Karai ground her teeth together, her eyes filled with fire.  “You really think I’m just going out and having sex with other men?” “How else would you explain this, Karai?” She could hear the tone in Leo’s voice.  He was angry, but that was just a front.  He was hurt.  He was so very much hurt. “I don’t know!  You were the one that told me it wasn’t possible!”  Crossing her arms, she tossed her hair out of her face.  She had been growing it out a little bit, but that was more for Leo than her.  He loved her hair.  She guessed tha

It had been a while since April had been able to spend time with the boys, since she had started college to get her degree in journalism and working part time at the Second Time Around. Each one of them had a prospective partner now, but she hadn't put her finger on which one would be the first to settle. Maybe even have a family. It was about time that they all sat together like they once did. Splinter had retired to his room hours ago, leaving the everyone to their own in the living room. There had been a weird game of truth or dare. April had caught the boys up on her home life, and they did the same. They would always fall in line, always

“Em, it’s okay.  You look fine,” Donnie chuckled, glancing over at his new bride. Running her fingers through her hair, she sighed.  “I don’t just want to be fine.” Walking over to the vanity mirror she was sitting at, Donnie placed his hands on her shoulders.  Leaning in to her ear, he gazed at the image bouncing back from the glass.  “Trust me.  You are stunning.  Beautiful,” Dropping his tone, he grinned.  “Ravenous.  Voluptuous.  Irresistible,” Nibbling on her ear slightly, he could feel her shudder.  She was blushing, and it brought out her bright blue eyes. “Stop it,&#

     “Donatello, my son...” The words were so calming, playing on a loop.  “I understand that you cannot comprehend this, but I will prove it to you,” It was his father’s voice.  Like all the times he had tried to reach out to him in meditation, where he could almost touch him.  The closeness had always revitalized him, until that connection had been broken.  His concentration, his focus, made it impossible.  “You are safe.  You have no need to worry,” He wanted to believe him, he truly did.  But how could he?  It wasn’t real.  None of this was real.  “You will learn this, but for now, you
