It's been two years since Shoku was last on Earth. When she was 17-years-old, she left to the Kitsune Dimension in order to train her magic with her mother. Now, it was her 19th birthday, and the day she would return to New York City.

The turtles were excitedly setting up a welcome party for her when she returned. Streamers around the room, a cake in the center, and a giant welcome banner splayed across the ceiling.

They all immediately stopped what they were doing as sparks began to form at the lair entrance. The same ones that whisked Shoku away two years ago. A nearly unrecognizable figure stepped out. Her ears were larger, her hair big, fluffy untied and draped over her shoulders. Her figure was curvier, her features sharper, and her smile brighter.

"Miss me?" She grinned.
