As minutes pass and you sit patiently at the bar, stirring your drink with the little straw you received with it. Your striking e/c eyes scan over the sea of faces in this grimy, cramped bar, hunting for your only hope in saving your planet.

"Am'u should be here by now, right?" You turn your eyes to your partner, Raphael. He shrugs.

"I dunno. Donnie, you have any idea where this guy is?" He asks into the team's radio. Static answers him for a moment before Donatello's voice breaks through.

"I don't know.. he's usually here by now, but he might not be consistent. I've only been watching him for like, three days."

Raph sighs.
"Oh boy.."

"Be patient, guys. He might turn up at any second." Leonardo reminds the team, leaning on a wall near the door with the Fugitoid.

April groans into her radio speaker with annoyance.
"Easy for you to say; Casey Jones isn't mercilessly flirting with you on the dance floor."

You can almost hear Casey smirking as he chuckles quietly.
"You know you love me, babe."

Donnie gags in disgust.
"Stay on mission, please, and no flirting on the TEAM radio!" He orders before shutting his communications off.

You let out a soft chuckle and sigh, leaning back. Raph sighs boredly and glances at you.

"So, princess, what are you gonna do once your planet is saved?" He asks, leaning back with his elbow on the counter.

"I will do my duty as princess, and lead my people as my parents have taught me once I come of age." You reply solemnly, staring ahead at the people around you.

"Really? That sounds very... planned." He mumbles.

"What's wrong with that?" You inquire, your eyebrow raised.

"Well, wouldn't you rather, I dunno, make your own future, instead of having it laid out and planned for you?" Raph asks with a slight shrug, looking at you.

You shrug.
"This is the life I was born into. I'm not certain I can... escape it."

"But you want to, right?"

Again, you shrug, not really wanting to answer, but also not wanting to lie to him.

"What will you do once you save your planet?" You change the subject to him, turning to stare at him with breathtaking eyes.

"I'm gonna keep fightin' baddies in New York, and take what comes my way." He stares at you with intense eyes, taking in every detail of you.

"Why?"

He pauses a moment to think before replying.
"Because it's really the only way I can be apart of my world. And sometimes I hate it, but most of the time I love it. Otherwise, I'd wind up a scientific discovery, or live in the sewers and never know what I'm missing on Topside."

You nod in understanding.
"So, your kind is uncommon on your planet?"

Raph chuckles breathlessly.

"Babe, my brothers and I are the only ones of our kind on Earth. Yeah, there's other mutants, but nothin' like us.."

You frown a bit.
"That sounds very lonely, being the first and last of your kind.."

"Yeah.. Hey.. y'know, I was wondering... maybe after all this, we could possib–" Your sudden rising cuts him off, and he looks up at you with an raised brow.

"I see Am'u." You speak into the radio. Raph glances around and spies a drunken Am'u stumbling towards a group of giggly, also drunk group of female-looking aliens. Slurred words are exchanged and laughter erupts from the girls.

"I see him. Remember the plan, Y/n?" Leo asks you over the radio. You nod to yourself, your serious and striking eyes turning innocent and sweet as you plaster a fake, flirtatious smile to your face.

"Yup, I'm going in." You glance at Raph and your smile grows less fake. Taking a deep breath, you strut up to Am'u and manage to grab his attention.

"Heeeeyyyy Am'u-m'u~" You hug his arm and giggle. "Wanna get outta here?" You suggestively whisper in his pierced ear.

A wolfish grin appears on his naturally red face, and he snakes a rusty red arm around your hips.
"'course I do, baby~" He slurs heavily, walking out of the bar with you. You spy Leo nod to you from the corner of your eye as he follows you from a few steps behind. Donnie, Mikey, April, Casey and Raphael follow behind Leo and the Professor; Raphael acting a little angry as he watches Am'u hold you close and stare at you like a pervert.

As you step outside with him, you feel his hand inching down where it doesn't belong. You growl and grab his hand, twisting his arm and forcing him down to the ground.

"That's enough." You snap. He groans, the crown of his head unfolding and a cloudy white liquid leaking out of his 'dreadlocks', which are actually tentacles. The others rush out and surround you and him.

"Ugh.. what's he doing?" Casey asks with repulsion.

"Draining his body of all the intoxicating liquids.. I suppose you could say he is getting un-drunk." You say.

Raph chuckles.
"Good job with the arm lock." He remarks, pleased to see Am'u's face in the dirt.

Am'u starts laughing– cackling, even. Everyone casts wary glances at each other as they stand their ground.

"A pleasure to meet you, princess. Please give your aunt a kiss from me." He smirks at you.

You don't even bother to think over his words, your head snapping to the right as you hear a series of clicks.
"GET TO COVER!" You scream, grabbing the hand of the person closest to you and dragging them to hide behind a broken and rusted space shuttle. As everyone runs, gunfire ricochets off the buildings and other metal objects scattered around the area. You look up at who you pulled to cover with you, and find Raphael staring down at you.

"Are you ok?? You didn't get hit, did you?" He asks, flinching as bullets fly overhead.

You nod.
"I'm fine." You peek over at where the shots originate. "I can't believe we walked right into an ambush.." you mutter.

"No one saw it coming, Y/n.." Raph gets out his laser Sais and takes a deep breath. "Donnie? You hear me?"

"Y-yeah.. April and I are good over here. Um.. what the shell do we do?!" Donnie asks, freaking out and almost screaming into the radio. Raph winces.

"Take deep breaths, for one. Anyone see where the shooter is?"

"Uh... just over a little hill.. wow, that is a tiny machine gun.." Leo mutters. "I think I could get him with a ninja star, but I need something to draw his fire."

"I got it." Raph peeks out, his entire body tense as he prepares for what he's about to do.

"Raph, what are you doing??" Everyone asks Raphael with worry.

"Relax. Just gonna sprint to cover." He says, glancing at you and smirking at your anxious expression. "Don't worry, sweetheart."

You blush and clear your throat.
"Worried? I-I'm not worried." You scoff. "M-maybe a little concerned that you'll get shot while being stupidly heroic.."

He chuckles.
"Be back in a flash." He winks and runs out, capturing the shooters attention.

You hear gunshots, and see Raph crumple to the ground behind a box.

You don't even hear yourself scream.
