TMNT 2012: Y/n Hamato

The Gauntlet

"Bread crumbs! Pigeons eat bread crumbs." Mikey exclaimed. 

"I meant April." Donnie stated. 

"You're gonna let him eat April? I thought you liked her!" Mikey exclaimed. 

"Yeah!" April and I exclaimed.

"Don't sweat it. We've got your back." Donnie stated. 

"All right, mighty mutants, let's do this." Leo stated. 

"'Mighty mutants'? What, 'dancing dorks' was already taken?" Raph asked. 

"Need I remind you not all of us are mutants?" I asked. 

"Wait! We do not yet know what you are facing. Perhaps you should study your enemy before confronting him." Father stated. 

"With all due respect, sensei, it's a pigeon." Leo stated. 

"What you know is dangerous to your enemy. What you think you know is dangerous to you. I fear you are all becoming overconfident." Father stated. 

"Sensei, in the past few months, we've taken down giant spiders, plant creatures, alien robots, and an army of ninjas. Maybe we're not overconfident. Maybe we're just that good." Leo stated. 

We all leave with April and we go find this pigeon man. 

Later, April is in the alley.

"Here I am, walking around in the big city. All alone! Oh, I sure hope no crazy pigeon-man sneaks up on me. That would be the last thing I'd want." April said out loud. 

"What are you doing?" Donnie asked. 

"You wanted me to be bait. I'm bait." April stated. 

"That's not how bait talks." I stated. 

"How do you know how bait talks?" April asked. 

"I know bait doesn't talk back." I stated. 

Leo, Raph and Mikey emerged from their hiding spot.

"Oh, no, you didn't." Mikey said as they hide again. 

"Just act natural." Donnie stated. 

"Here I am, actin' natural, just totally defenseless against any, I don't know, hideous mutant pigeon-guy who might happen upon me." April said out loud. 

The pigeon cawed and started to attack April. She screams until the bird gets electrocuted by the stun gun.

"Now!" Leo exclaimed as I pinned the pigeon to the ground and then it started talking. 

"Okay, okay, uncle! Jeez Louise." The pigeon said. 

"And you said I wasn't good bait." April said to me and Donnie. 

"Okay, start talking, pigeon-man." I growled. 

"I have a name." The pigeon stated. 

"Yeah, we just don't care what it is." Raph stated. 

"It's Pete." Pete stated, irritated. 

"Why were you trying to hurt April, Pete?" Leo asked. 

"I didn't wanna hurt her. I was just bringing her a message. From her father." Pete stated. 

"Let him up." April said. 

I let Pete up, but i still have my katanas ready. 

"We were both guests of the Kraang. They poured some ooze on me and turned me into this." Pete stated. 

"Oh, that must have been horrible. Being turned into a pigeon." I stated. 

"Actually, I started out as a pigeon." Pete stated.
