The Turtles moved stealthily from building to building, covering their tracks as they watched the city for any sign of their enemies. Leonardo led the way, determined to maintain discipline.

"Remember, we must be quiet, like Master Splinter taught us," he whispered, trying to keep his brothers' focus.

Leonardo tripped on a loose piece of roof, lost his balance, and fell uncontrollably down the fire escape. He hit every metal bar in the way before landing disastrously in a dumpster, surrounded by debris. Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello peeked their heads out from the edge of the building, watching him from above.

"That wasn't very quiet," Raphael scoffed, holding back a laugh.

Before Leonardo could get up, they heard a soft, mocking clap. From a nearby water tower, the brothers' enemy—a female Foot Clan ninja who had tried to take them down on several occasions, especially Leonardo—came down with a triumphant smile.

"Not bad, for a beginner," she mocked in a seductive tone. "Is this how you expect to defeat me, Leo? Covered in trash?"

She pulled out her phone and took a picture of Leonardo as he continued to try to get out of the dumpster.

"Wait till Shredder sees this," she added, with a mocking laugh.

From the roof, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello looked at the scene. They couldn't let her keep that photo; they didn't know who else she could send it to or if she planned to publish it. If that image got into the wrong hands, their lives and their secret existence would be in danger. Without saying a word, the three brothers prepared themselves, holding their weapons firmly.

They knew that getting that phone back was their only option.
