Y/n couldn't shake the feeling of being watched, ever since she was about 10. She swore she could see a figure near her window at night, but nobody ever beleived her. She was almost 17 now. She had been plagued with nightmares for a few days, and often stayed up at night. The figure was always there, watching her. It didn't look human. One night, she had grown tired of looking at the strange figure and not knowing who it was. She opened her window quietly and managed to catch a glimpse of it when it seemed to be lost in thought. 

"HEY! What the hell are you!?" She shouted, watching curiously as it looked up like a deer caught in headlights. It jumped over to her balcony, and she caught a better look. She had seen it before, as a child. It was just as small as her, but was fighting it's siblings on the top of a roof. She had gone up to the roof trying to look at the stars, as a curious 9 year old does, and saw them. She went to scream but a hand covered her mouth and pushed her back into her room, slipping in through the wndow quietly. 

"Shhh, please. I won't hurt you!" He shushed, slowly removing the hand from her mouth. Her eyes were as big as saucers, but not out of fear. She was curious, and quite fascinated by him. 

"What are you?" She asked, circling him and poking at his arms, shell, face. Finally she saw the sharp swords and pulled one out before he could stop her. 

"Wait no! Put it down!" He said frantically, worried she would hurt herself. She swung it around with ease, and precision, her skill almost matching his own. His eyes widened. "You know how to use them?" 

"Well yeah, I took many weaponry classes at the academy I used to go to. With all the dissapearences and weird things going on, my dad figured it was for the best." She said, and flipped the sword so the handle was facing him. He took it hesitantly and placed it back in the holster. "Now who are you, and why have you been watching me for almost 7 years." She asked firmly, her voice a hushed whisper. 

"I- I can't really explain it. Maybe it would be easier if you meet everyone, and then we can talk." He responded, a nervous look on his face. She shrugged her shoulders gestured towards the window. He took this as a yes, and went onto the balcony, followed by Y/n. He picked her up and began to jump from building to building. 

"By the way, what's your name?" She asked, clinging to him while they flew through the night.

"I'm Leo. Why aren't you scared of me?" He asked curiously, as they lowered into the sewers. She shrugged her shoulders as she walked beside him through the dark sewers. 

"I'm Y/n, if you didn't know. And I remember seeing you with three others on top of a roof like 7 years ago, before you started watching me. I don't know why I'm not scared of you, but ever since you've been watching me I've just felt so much more safe." She explained, feeling much more comfortable around him than she probably should've. 

"Well, uh this is the layer. Those are my brothers, Raph, Donnie, and-" 

"Michelangelo, wanna skate?" The one wearing the orange bandanna asked. Y/n laughed at his enthusiasm. 

"Maybe some other time, I do love skating!" She said happily. Mikey sighed in content at her answer. 

"You know, Leo here has a bit of a thing for you." A tall rat, like thing spoke as he walked out of a dark room. Y/n looked up in surprise. 

"Master splinter!" Leo hissed, and Y/n giggled to herself. She leaned over and placed a gently kiss on his cheek. 

"Well, you sure are a sweet stalker."
