One dark, silent night in New York, the female ninja of the Foot Clan crept through the shadows. Her mission, given by Shredder, was clear: find Hamato Yoshi and finish him off. Like everyone in the Foot Clan, she obeyed her master's orders without question. The Krang were also part of this hunt, but their goal was bigger, more devastating.

However, during her search, the female ninja found something unexpected: four small mutant creatures, still babies, hiding in the ruins of a shattered laboratory. They were tiny, helpless, and clearly turtles. All four of them stared at her with large, glowing eyes, completely unaware of the danger she represented.

Knowing she must finish them off, she raised her knife, her hand shaking just a moment. “This is what Shredder expects of me," she told herself, her gaze fixed on the little brothers. But, seeing the innocence in their tiny faces, something inside her broke. She couldn't do it. Despite all her training and loyalty to the Foot Clan, she was unable to kill those little creatures.

Sighing deeply, she put the knife away and, knowing she was betraying Shredder and his clan, made a decision that would change her life. With great care, she picked up the four siblings and took them to her apartment, hiding them from the world and the Foot Clan.

There, in the privacy of her home, she let them swim in a tub of water, watching as they splashed around happily, oblivious to the danger around them. She knew she couldn't keep them with her for long. With each passing day, the risk of being discovered grew. But, as she watched them, a determination grew in her heart: she must find someone who could take care of them, someone strong and wise, someone like Hamato Yoshi, now known as Splinter.

As the days passed, the bond between her and the little siblings grew stronger, but so did the need to protect them, driving her to seek their salvation. He knew he had little time before the Foot Clan discovered his betrayal, and he had to act quickly.
