Dark Season-One

[Storm Wolf]

Tigers heat beat top speed as she was suddenly faced with the barrel of a gun " easy there big guy, I'm here to help......I don't want no trouble." she said softly

She looked at him then at the gun once more " If you put the gun down it might be a little more comfortable for the both of us." she bowed her head not really knowing what to say next and hoping he would giver her a chance to help him.

[Brodie]

Brodie steps into the sewer lair of the Turtles, amazed even more that these mutants could decorate. Casey led him into another room, Brodie stepped over toys, comic books, video games and various items. As he steps into the new room his eyes widen, in front of him is an overly large Rat.

"Brodie Mitoka...It has been a long time..." It said.

Splinter, when he was human, had viseted Mitoka many times in Japan. He had only seen Brodie once.

"....You..." Brodie mumbled.

"Yes..."

[R-iZZy]

Stealth stared at the figure for a long minute, keeping the gun held to its target.

"So, what makes a kitty like you want to play with a rough one like me?" Stealth asked, as he lowered the gun. "What can you do to help me?"

Stealth stared at the panther-like creature with a look of sorrow spread across his face. He reached for the glowing blade's handle, but did not pull it out yet.

"You're a friend of that little Japanese b*stard!" Stealth began, "So why should I trust you?"

[Storm Wolf]

Tiger Immediatly took offense to his words "I am not with him, I would have killed him had Casey not stopped me!"she calmed her self down and turned into her human form" I can help if you'll just let me I don't know how, but I will." she spoke tenderly to him

Tiger knew it was a long shot and saw his hand on the blade but she walked right up to him "I am basicaly harmless as a human that is how much i am trusting you, and i am asking you to do the same."

She looked him straight in the eyes and reached out her hand to touch his cheek all the while softly speaking to him "I see the great pain in your eyes, a pain that no one should have to go through....alone." She knew that her touch was soothing and comforting and thought that if she could just touch him he would see that she meant everything she had said and the rest would come easily.

Tiger knew that she was putting her life in danger just being there, but she felt somehow connected to this mutant.....perhaps becase she had once gone through the same thing? Her abnormality had always driven her family and friends away from her so no one tried to help her through her ordeal, except for the men who only wanted to sleep with her because she was a "hott chick" as they always said.

[R-iZZy]

At the touch of his cheek, Stealth removed his hand from the blade's handle, and lowered his face to the floor below his feet. He placed his gun back in his belt, and stood from the building ledge, intentionally moving his cheek away from her helping hand. Stealth turned his shell to Tiger, revealing the spikes of his shell to penetrate through the rear of his leather jacket.

"You know," Stealth began, "If you're expectin' me to be all sentimental because you care, you gotta look deeper than that into me!"

Stealth looked into the sky, feeling the gentle breeze pushing against his face. He slowly shifted his face to Tiger, with a relaxed, yet focused expression plagued across his face.

"What would make a...?" Stealth began, but noticed a scar under Tiger's chin.

Stealth slowly approached Tiger and placed a cupped index finger under her chin, gently lifting her chin.

"So, the work of an uncaring human?" Stealth asked. "Don't feel alone, look at this!"

Stealth released his index finger from Tiger's chin, and removed his eyepatch, which revealed a severely scarred right eye. He placed the eyepatch over his eye, again, and looked to the floor in disappoinment and insecurity.

"So," Stealth said mournfully, "Which merciless homo sapien would commit a foul act against you?" as he noticed the scarred chin once more.

[Storm Wolf]

"Do you think I would be up here if i didn't intend to take a deeper look?" she shook her head

She had tried to hide her scar but Stealth had spotted it and questioned her about it after showing her his own.

Tiger didn't know if she should tell him about her accident but it slipped past her lips and she looked ashamed as she talked about it " Well Brodie had the blade to my......It was a miscalculation, it was all my fault." she said quickly trying to cover up the name she had spoken

she put her head down "please continue with what you were saying before....my scars are not important and I am here to help you not myself."

Tiger thought about what she had just said most of her scarring was on the inside and some of it had not healed fully. She wondered if perhaps she was here to help herself and by realeasing his suffering perhaps realease her own?

A single tear rolled down her cheek as she thought of the pain still locked deep inside her. she often wished she had someone to come to and cry on or at least someone to care for her as she often did others, but what were the chances of that happining?

[R-iZZy]

Stealth stared at Tiger, and approched her. He wiped the tear from her eye, and took a step back.

"You, dear saint," Stealth said. "Have nothing to worry about. As for I... I am a loner, a rebel, a nomad that wonders from place-to-place."

Stealth glared at the sky, for a second, and looked back into the innocent, sweet face of Tiger.

"I could have expected Brodie to do such a thing to you," Stealth said. "Merciless, but cowardly. Listen here, I should have no place in your heart. I was once sent to infiltrate bases and murder those who were sent to be my target."

Stealth turned his back to Tiger, and ran at full speed from one building to the next, feeling the air resist and push against his body. Stealth landed on his feet like a cat, turned around, and saw Tiger look in sorrow from the rooftop he just evacuated.

"You are just too fair to try and connect with a freak like me!" Stealth began. "Please kid, don't try. It would only end up bringin' you more pain and sufferin' if you learn my past!"

Stealth turned his back to Tiger, once more, and began to walk to the other end of the rooftop.

[Storm Wolf]

Tigers heart sank. Her hands were not clean either, she had killed many in her past, both innocent and guilty." The enemy must be eliminated!" she shuddered as she thought about the motto she had once lived by.

It was true she was created by the military for no other purpose than to kill, but though they had tried they could not totally wipe out the personality she had been born with. So they altered her mind and programmed her like a machine to do what they commanded. 626 yea that was her name, project 626, and that part of her still had a lust to kill.

Tigers powers were gifts born form torture by the enemy and had set her mind free in the end, but she was doomed never to lead a life with a family as long as she had them.

She had never told anyone about her secret past but now is the time she thought to herself

"look in the military files for Project 626, there is someting there you should know, before you say that about yourself." she yelled before she dissappeared in the dark alley below.

as she hurred back to the lair she knew they would meet again, she had his scent.

[R-iZZy]

Stealth looked behind himself to see what Tiger was talking about, but she was no longer visible to his sight.

"What?!" Stealth yelled, wondering what Tiger meant by Project 626.

Stealth had always refused to bond with a single person, but what made Tiger so different to him? He didn't even know the madam's name. He looked on, puzzled and confused.

Is this lady some kinda mind toy to me? Stealth asked himself. And if she is, who in the hell sent her?

Stealth had no idea what was going on. The multiple missions he had to execute for the MAU had scarred him for life, but also prepared him for the toughest challenges.

Stealth reflected on the past, where he was not always known as Stealth, but a nameless figure. He rememered when a human-formed mutant accepted him into the MAU, and could remember the commander give him the code-name of Stealth.

Stealth thought to himself, I've never felt compassion before. So why should I start now?

Stealth felt a stinging pain in his scarred eye, and he dropped to the floor contemplating on how the event happened.

How could you do this to me? Stealth thought to himself. How could you betray me? Did you only accept me to kill me? I hate you for this!

Stealth held out his glowing kitana's handle, and drew out the blade. He swung the blade frantically, but at no target. After a while, Stealth felt the pain fade away.

Of all things that healed on my body, Stealth thought to himself, Why does this scar on my right eye not heal? Why is it eternally here?!

And in his head, he could hear a voice whisper to him. Give him insight on what he needed. It said, "you will have everything explained to you... soon enough!"

[Storm Wolf]

Tiger stopped just befor she got to the turtles Lair, She really didn't want to go in knowing Brodie was there, so she turned to the nearest manhole and climed out. She walked to her apartment in the dark, every sound making her jump

what the hell is wrong with me? I can take out anthing this street has to offer she thought to herself

She walked up the stairs of the apartment complex to the top floor and unlocked her door. "hey, baby!" she picked up the little black cat that greeted her at the door and cuddled him.

Tiger proped her balcony door open to let some of the cool night air in her apartment. After taking a shower and feeding her cat she plopped down on her old worn couch and turned the television on. She flipped through all the music channels untill she found the one labeled "Atomospheres" and began listining to the sound of humpback whales.

Soon it began to rain outside but thinking it was on her T.V., Tiger drifted off into a peaceful sleep .....leaving her balcony door open!

[R-iZZy]

Stealth stared at a faraway building, but behind him was trouble approaching him unexpectedly. As Stealth looked at the building miles ahead of his eyes, he heard a door close, and he sharply rotated his face to the site.

"Who in the hell are you?" one of the three masked men asked?

"You mean what in the hell are you!" another of the three said.

Stealth sneered at the figure, and without remorse, he quickly drew out his pistol and took a shot in one of the three masked men's forehead. The man collapsed to the floor, and the other two drew out their artillery. Stealth sprung in the air, as the other two took their time, blasting at Stealth's body. Stealth somersaulted in the air multiple times, and landed on his feet, taking a shot to each one. One of the men were popped in the right quadricep muscle, the other getting hit in the shoulder.

"You son of a b*tch!" the man with the hit quadricep said. "You're gonna pay for this!"

"Would you like to place a guarantee on that?" Stealth said. "Humans that witness my face do not live to tell it!"

Stealth held out his glowing kitana, and pressed the button to withdraw the blade. Stealth blasts a glowing beam from the kitana and knocks the man who was hit in the leg, right on the top of his head. The man drops down to the floor, and the other man called for help. Five more men bust through the door, and Stealth charges with anticipation.

One man swings a fist, and Stealth absorbs the blow to his face, executes a sharp kick to the man's abomen, then spin-kicks the man in his face. The others brought out their artillery and balsted their bullets at one target... Stealth!

Stealth scurried away from the scene, but hopped unto a ledge of another building, feeling the wind carry him across. As Stealth lands on the rooftop, he tumbles behind the legde wall, keeping himselg ducked. Stealth pulled out his sniper rifle, and picked off assailant-by-assailant, as the others blasted their bullets over Stealth's head.

Finally, Stealth reached the last person. Unfortunately, the man had a carrying case with him, a rather large one. He opened the case and brought out a bazooka. Stealth stared at the item, wide-eyed, and began to run. The man set his weapon up, and launched the rapid missile. Stealth noticed a balcony, and hopped to it, as the missile trailed along. Stealth rose in the air and clung on to the balcony, noticing an opened door. He couldn't have a human witness his face. What would this person think?

The missile approached, and Stealth pulled out his pistol. No other alternative came to him, and he shot the pistol at the approaching missile. After the bullet came in contact with the missile, it exploded with a thunderous boom, right behind Stealth's back.

Now Stealth clung on to the balcony with one hand. Hopefully, the exploding missile would have caught the attention of someone. But what would it matter? His only hope was to see if the resident of this room was a mutant.

[enigma-1]

*after the business w/ Brodie, wanders about in the night, just trying to find some dinner*

Hmm, now where's a cockroach when you need one?

*clings to a wall, using her camaflauge techniques to remain unseen*

[Storm Wolf]

Tiger raced across the battlefield dodging the bullets like she had been taught to. Suddenly she reached a small group of tents "kill him.....I don't care how just do it!" the orders ran through her mind clearly as she entered the enemy leaders tent. She snuck up behing him and grabbed him by his hair, she listened to his pitiful whining befor she sliced his throat clean through, loving every gruesome minute.

Tiger awoke with a start, panting and sweating "It was just a dream!" she sighed, Then a loud explosion filled the air. "What the.....?" she grabbed her hand gun from the side table when she spotted something dangling from her balcony, She slowly made her way across the room and leaned over the the railing pointing the gun at the dark figures head.

Tiger was about to pull the trigger when she recognized who it was "Oh my god.......!" she quickly grabbed Stealth and pulled him in using all of her human strength, but before she could return to the safety of her apartment a shot rang out and the bullet grazed her shoulder.

With the speed of a cheetah she pulled up her gun and fired it into the darkness, she heard the body drop and closed the balcony door satisfied with her sharp shooting technique.

[R-iZZy]

Stealth lain on the floor, a mess, and attempted to stand on his feet. Apaprently, the event was just too much for him. He stared at the figure, which saved his life.

A human! Stealth thought to himself. No, it's the tiger lady!

Stealth looked at Tiger's shoulder, noticing a bit of blood evacuate from the bullet's wound. Stealth looked back to see who had done it. Of course it appeared to him as one of the masked men.

"Are you okay?" Stealth asked Tiger, and then fell to the ground. But before he could go into his sleep, he whispered out the last words that were on his mind. "What do you mean Project 626?"

Stealth felt a burning sting, that felt like it was eating away at his flesh. He felt his cheek, and noticed a stain of blood stood in his hands, and after that moment, he collapsed on Tiger's floor.

[Storm Wolf]

Tiger looked at Stealth sadly "What have you gotten your self into?" somehow she managed to carry him to her bed and lay him on it.

she took his wepons and layed them in the corner of the room "There will be no need for thoes here." she said to herself, to scared and hyper to sleep she pulled up her recliner chair and sat the whole nite through with him waiting for him too wake.

While tiger waited she thought of a way she could tell him about Project 626....and how she was once this evil project that had a lust for killing and fed off others fear. How would he react to this she wondered silently.

She watched him for a while and listened to his labored breathing, then she remembered her own wound which was still slightly bleeding Nah.....after he wakes then i will attend to myself she yawned and layed her head on the chairs armrest

[R-iZZy]

Stealth fell through a hole, leading to things he had seen in his past. He found himself landing in the center of rubble, once a building he knew. He noticed what the building was. It was the MAU base, now destroyed, and he knew who did it.

All of a sudden, the floor engulfed Stealth into another location. There, he stood on a floating platform, and there stood the one man who brought him into the MAU. The one that showed him the ropes, and then turned against him.

"This place seems oh so familiar, does it not?" the human-formed mutant said, with his British accent.

"Why did you do it, Rex?!" Stealth yelled. "You and me were like peas in a pod! Why did you do it!"

"Well, I did say everything would be explained, didn't I?" Rex said. "You seek the answer to why you cannot rid of that hideous mark across your right eye."

Stealth growled at Rex, but knew not to tamper with Rex, a mutant that was just too quick for anything to touch him. Rex was top-notch priority for the MAU, and grew fond of Stealth at a time.

"(laugh) You don't seem to be au fait with the idea of me terminating the MAU," Rex said. "It was your faux pas to ever put full trust into someone you barely know!"

"Barely know?!" Stealth yelled, "How can you say I barely knew you?"

"If you knew me enough, you would have understood why I caused that mark upon your face," Rex said. Rex drew out a long, metal blade. "And if you knew me, you'd understand why I am preparing to put another scar on your left eye!"

Stealth froze, and in the blink of an eye, a blade came across his left eye, a long, metal flash slicing through his eye!

Stealth woke up quickly and reached for his pistol, but had no luck finding it. He jolted out of bed and stared at Tiger with eyes of horror and a disturbed face.

"Where is he?" Stealth yelled at Tiger. "WHERE IS HE?!!!"

[Storm Wolf]

Tiger jumped when Stealth popped up and began to shout. She sat next to him on her bed "Easy there is no one else here, its just us!" she reashured him. She rubbed his shoulder softly "I promis you no one else is here."

Then her curiosity got the better of her "Who is HE??" she asked cautiously.

What frightened him so She wondered to herself as she attempted to calm Stealth from his nightmare. such a strong figure.....frightened?? she thought

[R-iZZy]

Stealth rubbed his eyes, and felt his heart rush. He felt his left eye, but found nothing abnormal about it. He sharply turned his head to Tiger, wide-eyed.

"Don't worry about it," Stealth said. "HE is just a figment of my imagination."

Stealth thought to himself, Maybe she should know about Rex. But not until I learn about Project 626.

"I'll tell you what," Stealth said, placing a hand on her knee. "If you care to explain what the hell you were talkin' about with this Project 626, then I'll explain all you need to know about who I was yellin' for."

Stealth stared into the lovely eyes of Tiger, awaiting a reply from her tender lips.

Stealth stared into the lovely eyes of Tiger, awaiting a reply from her tender lips.



Tiger sighed “Well…….626 was created in a military base laboratory, a test tube baby created specifically for war, but almost rejected because it was female.” she paused and looked at the floor “ 626 was trained in sniping and heavy artillery usage, but became an expert in hand to hand combat, because of her lust to watch her victims slowly and painfully die. Being female was also another advantage as she was often sent in to seduce the enemies men, then after she got the information she needed she’d mutilate them beyond recognition.” She pause as pictures of the many bodies flashed through her mind, “Luckily 626 was not really a killer, but had to be injected with a serum every week to curb her real personality and to keep her following commands.”

Tiger lifted the mattress up and pulled out a hunting blade and a vanilla folder. She unsheathed the blade and looked into her own green eyes “This blade has taken thousands upon thousands of lives both innocent and guilty alike.” She sheathed it and handed it to Stealth , next she picked up the folder “pictures of 626’s doings, but I am sure you have seen things much more gruesome in your life.” She handed him the folder “If you have any other questions just ask.”

Tiger stood up and turned her back to Stealth for some time before she spoke again “If you haven’t already figured it out I am 626.” Then remembering that she hadn’t yet introduced herself she turned to him “ But you can call me Tiger.”
