The insistent ringing of your phone makes you groan. Rolling over in your bed, you grumble, picking it up.

"(Y/N) come quick!! Something weird happened!!"

Mikey sounds scared but also excited.

You scramble out of your bed to get clothes.

"I-I'll be right there!!"

What was waiting for you at the lair?

~~~~~

"How..."

"We have no idea how it happened." Standing before you are four very human teenage boys. Donnie you can only assume is the lean tall male with a pair of spectacles on. 

No shell, no scales. Mikey is shorter with dark hair. Leo you conclude is the male with the blond hair and green eyes. He's holding his swords in his hand and looking at his back in annoyance. Raph...you were drooling over Raph. The human form was a fair depiction of what you thought of him. Strong jaw, muscled stature and those intense smoldering eyes. You need a minute to gather yourself. This is all too much too fast.

"(Y/N)?"

You jump, because in your staring, you barely saw Raph move. Of course human Raph is certainly attractive but...you never realized how much you appreciated their differences before now. His gait and demeanor hasn't changed, but everything else has.

"D-Does Donnie know how to change you guys back?" you divert your gaze.

"I have no clue. These readings make no sense. The change was spontaneous, unplanned. Our DNA has literally warped itself, no trigger. "

He continues on a rant meanwhile Mikey is unbuckling his pants. He looked down in slight disappointment. 

"Wow, it got smaller." you blush.

"MIKEY!!" Leo and Raph yell at him.

"What? I was just checking." He zipped up, and you kept your eyes on the wall.

"I vote we got out!"

"Absolutely not, we have no idea how this happened and when it'll wear off." Leo objected.

"Exactly, that's why we gotta use it while we can. Come on, you can't tell me you're not curious. This is the first chance we have to go out there without worrying about being mutants. " You understand Mikey's yearning.

"Please Leo." Mikey is pleading, and you feel for him.

"Leonardo." Splinter walks over, placing a hand on Leo's shoulder. He doesn't say anything, just looks at him. Leo releases a deep sigh. 

"Fine, but we're still together. No running off. If you feel anything weird you tell me and we leave immediately. "

"YESS!!!"

Mikey is overjoyed, and it makes you smile.

Since the beginning, Raph hasn't taken his eyes off you. He looks down at his hands, then over to yours.

"Out in the open..together.."

Maybe this really was a blessing in disguise. Leo is searching for a strap for his blades.

You laugh. 

"Leo, maybe it's better if you leave that stuff here. People aren't gonna react very well to you walking around the city with two katanas. " His shoulders slump in an adorable way.

"But my blades.."

He's actually pouting. It's so cute. Raph slaps his shoulder. "Quit being a baby, ain't like we gonna chase around criminals. " He's right, it's the first time they'll be outside just to enjoy all that New York has to offer. You're kind of excited to see how the day will turn out.

"Onward!" 

Mikey cheers. Donnie is packing some of his equipment in his bag. "I'll see if I can work on this while we're at it." He states. You follow, trailing behind a little. Raph comes to your side, taking your hand and you look over. Your fingers interlock, and you grow silent. It's so weird to be holding his hand like this, but not unwanted. He doesn't look at you, just continues forward and you grin, leaning into his side.

You place a quick peck on his cheeks, and they burn red immediately. Your eyes light up. "Raph are you blushing!" He's trying to glare, but with the flush in his cheeks, it just makes him look so cute.

"I ain't." He denies. You giggle. "You so were."

He picks you up unexpectedly and you squeak. Those green eyes hold you captive. He leans in, and you close your eyes, but he stops a hairline away.

"Now who's blushing."

"No fair!" you protest.

"Could you guys stop flirting for one minute." Leo says boredly. You bury your face into Raph's chest, blushing.

"Shut up." you grumble. Leo just smiles.

~~~~~'

Mikey was literally staring in awe at every store. It was hard to keep up with him. Of course they told April about the change, she was more than happy to join. So the plan was to head to her apartment after Mikey was done gawking at every little thing. Leo and Donnie were somewhat the same. 

"We've never really seen that much of the city from down here." Donnie states in awe. A girl stops in front of Donnie.

"Hi, I was just a little lost and hoping you could give me some directions." She batted her eyes a couple times and you were struggling to hold in your laugh. Donnie didn't look bothered in the least. You sort of figured he didn't realize that girl who was obviously flirting with him. So he gave clean directions, and she smiled. "Thanks handsome." She gave a quick kiss on his cheek running off. Donnie stood there in shock.

"Donnie you player!!" Mikey said, slapping his arm. Donnie cleared his throat.

Leo was smiling. "Something tells me she didn't really need directions."

You joined in their laughter, turning you fully expect Raph to be acting just as excited as his brothers, but his eyes were watching you. 

"Ra-" He leans down and kisses you, and it's so sudden that you squeal. Leo and Mikey groan. "We're heading to April, you guys can kiss all you want on your own. " Raph barely acknowledges their words, and you moan when he deepens the kiss. You force yourself to pull back because you're in public and as you look over you can see a few people staring. "Raph.." you whine.

"We're going to your house. "It doesn't sound like a request. He just pulls you along, and you follow mesmerized.

~~~~

The second you step in the door you expect to see Aunt May, you're confused on why she isn't there.

"Right." She was still helping the principal.

You turn to Raph, a bit nervous. 

"A-Aunt May isn't gonna be back for a while." You mumble. Raph just kisses you again. You're a bit surprised. Raph isn't usually this needy. He's a lot more attentive. You barely have a chance to gather yourself. He backs you up and you knock into the table. He pauses for a second, panting softly.

"Take me to your room." he'd been teasing about blushing earlier, but you were probably as red as a cherry right now. Taking his hand, you nod, guiding him up the stairs. He followed silently. The second you got inside you were pushed up against the wall. Not that you were really complaining. But this whole thing felt so sudden. 

It's only a second before he takes you into his arms. You aren't that shocked. No matter what form he took, apparently his strength stayed the same. He lowers you onto the bed slowly, still leaving kisses along your neck. The moment you touch the mattress, it becomes real. This is Raph and you're about to... you brush your hands along his hand.

"That's right." 

You lean away, and Raph stops. "What's wrong?" You slide out from under his body, inching backwards.

"I-I can't Raph."

It's clear that he never saw this happening. Raph looks down with a bitter chuckle.

"Guess no matter what I'll forever be a freak huh. Thought for sure you'd want to since I was human. " Your eyes grow wide.

"I-Is that why you were being so..forward?"

He shifts, sitting at the edge as he looks at the ground. 

"It ain't your fault if you don't want to. I should have asked first. "

He really was that scared of you rejecting him as himself.

"Raph.." You feel horrible. And here you thought he was just really horny. You feel like an idiot.

"Raph it's not because of who you are that I don't want to do this. "

His head raises, and you move closer, taking his hand.

"I..I've never, you know, done this before. I-I didn't want my first time to be with this version of you. I want...the real you.."

"Wait, you're saying you want to do turtle me?"

"W-Well when you say it like that it sounds so dirty!"

For a moment he thinks he dreamed the words you just said. But the pretty flush of your cheeks and the way you're playing with your fingers to distract yourself, he can't help but feel so lucky. How did he manage to snag someone like this. He isn't quite sure.

"You really are something else."

He drops back unto the bed pulling you with him. You giggle when he hugs you, kissing every part of your face.

"Ya kinky little shit." you blush, smacking his arm.

"You're lucky I love you Raphael!"

The day is dying down, and all you can think is that you're happy that you didn't have to lose anyone.

"You were scared."

Frank's statement makes you turn to him.

"Of course I was, you’re my friend Frank."

You brush off the comment. This particular conversation is making you uneasy.

"Don't waste your tears on someone like me. There's only one way things go for guys like me. I already accepted it." He emptied his glass, placing it back down on the table.

"It doesn't have to be that way."

When you invited him over to have a drink, it was to help you let loose. You were still dealing with the fact that you almost lost Frank. Since they both refused to take your word for it, you just invited him and planted a smile on your face for his sake. Now he was saying things that made you think back to that moment.

"Yeah, and what way do you think it's gonna go. I kill for a living."

"You haven't hurt anyone recently. Frank, you've saved far more lives than you've taken. You're not a bad person, so why are you trying so hard to make me feel like you are? "

"Why are you trying to make it seem like I aint. "

You swallow.

"I just think that some people are worth the trouble I guess." Your intention is to laugh it off and change the topic.

"How about another drink?"

You take his glass, heading to the kitchen. You're doing so much to distract yourself that you don't hear him walk up behind you. Your turn to grab some ice, and you run into his body. Straightening, you want to ask if he needs something else. But those dark eyes have you frozen in your spot.

"You don't think I'm a monster."

How could you when you knew the reason he went out everyday and fought. He made himself a monster to society so he could get rid of the people the cops couldn't take on themselves. You never envied his ideology. You could never take a life.

That robber who'd killed your Uncle, you wanted nothing more than to cause him pain. Watch him beg for his life. But in the end, you couldn't do it. Because that's' not what you stood for. It wouldn't have brought him back. Frank, he was just dealt a bad hand. It didn't make him a monster. Because he was changing.

"I don't. You're not a monster Frank. "

Frank looks down, a smile on his lips.

"You really are naive."

"Wha-"

He leans in, and you stiffen. It's a simple brushing of lips.

Nothing about Frank can be described as gentle, but this kiss. It's not just gentle, but warm, brief, amazing. He moves back. Those eyes bring too much meaning to them. You feel as though you're bare. You're the one that reacts this time. Your hand lays on his jaw. Even his features are rough, it makes you smile.

"I guess I am." you reply. Your fingers caress his skin, and he closes his eyes. You move it down, and when it lands on his lips, you trace it.

"Soft.."

You hadn't intended to voice that. You see the way his Adam's apple bobs as his eyes flicker open. It's a momentary battle, then it all breaks. You aren't sure who moves first. It's too quick to tell. Your lips join hurriedly, and you brace your hands on the counter behind when he leans into you.

It's a move to try and regain some control. It's gotten so hot. Frank practically rips his jacket off, and you're fighting to free him of his jeans. His belt drops to the floor, and your t-shirt follows. He kicks his pants off, and you can't wait for him to discard his own t-shirt. 

You rip it open, the buttons dropping to the floor. You bite down on your lip, and Frank laughs, picking you up. You wrap your legs around his waist with a giggle as he starts moving, lips joining and parting. He stumbles a couple times, urging some more giggles from your lips.

"I hope you know what you're getting yourself into Parker."

"Boys boys, I can't say I'm impressed with what you're doing here."

The group of men turned around, guns raised.

"The hell! Where did she go!!"

One by one you plucked them off, pinning them in different positions on the wall with your web. Frank walked in with his gun, that frown still itched on his face.

"Took out the ones at the front." You jumped down from the wall.

"When you say took out you mean unconscious right?" He didn't speak.

"Frank!"

"Calm down, I just shot them in the knee caps." You sigh.

"You really are a piece of work." His eyes studied the men that were stuck to the wall. Even their mouths had been covered, struggling against your webs.

"How do you even do that?" He questioned.

"Do what, the webs?"

"Yeah."

"Well they come out of my wrists." Frank moved closer, taking your wrist and inspecting it.

"It looks normal."

A string shot out and he ducked, glaring at you.

"You asked me to show you." Laughing, you stuck another web, pulling yourself over his head as you climbed to the top. You could hear the sirens getting close.

"We should probably get going, cops are coming. You don't exactly have the best reputation with them." He grunts, chugging his gun as he makes his way to the back of the building. You crawl out to the top. You never really thought this partnership would work.

Frank was obviously not too crazy about working with partners. But you figured he was trying his best. He even respected your need to not kill anyone. You hoped you were having somewhat of a positive influence on him. He wasn't a bad guy. He'd just seen way too much. Now crouched at the very top, you watched the police carry the criminals away. You could hear Frank climbing his way up. He groaned, dropping down with his back to the wall.

"You good Castle, you sound a bit out of breath."

"Don't get cheeky." He grumbled.

It was nice having a partner.

You freeze when you feel the tingling at the back of your head. The pole that came hurtling in your direction makes you lift your arm. You caught the small stick, glaring in the direction it came from. Frank stood, now on guard. When the person walked out, he looked more relaxed.

"Well, if it isn't red. Come to join our death squad. "

The male stepped into the light, and you stared.

"No way...you're.." You'd heard about him, but you never imagined you'd actually meet him.

"Sorry about that, I needed to make sure you weren't a threat. Nice reflexes. " You threw it back, and he caught it easily, slipping it into the side of his pants.

"So, I didn't peg you for the type to get a partner Castle. I'm a little offended. "

"Don't get ahead of yourself. She basically blackmailed me. Just didn't need the hassle." You moved closer, eyes still trained on the Daredevil.

"This is crazy, like you're really standing in front of me. Wow.." Matt smiled.

"I have to say I'm a fan of your work too. You do a lot of good. I heard you were a guy."

"I thought the same thing." Frank stated.

"Just like society to assume only men can do this job."

Frank is wearing a grin.

"She ain't wrong."

You slid off your mask.

"My name is (Y/N) Parker. ''

For you, trust was something you valued. Frank already knew your identity, so you figured. Since he trusts this guy, then you would too.

"I hope we can all work together to keep the city safe. " He titled his head. Moving over, he shook your hand.

"Likewise."

You smile as he pulls away, and Matt is wearing one too. He was a bit stunned at how peppy you were. He'd been doing this job for a while, and it wasn't often he found himself smiling. But he figured that helping people, it's what brought you a purpose, a reason to fight. Just like him.

"Alright break it up." Frank groused.

Matt chuckled.

"You sound a bit jealous there Frank. Am I getting too friendly with her?" You blush at the insinuation. He doesn't respond, just turns.

"I'm heading out."

He sent a wave, and you sent one last goodbye to Daredevil.

"I-It was nice meeting you!"

It wasn't long before the police were swarming the building. The ambulance attended to Reese after you basically refused treatment until they ensured that he was fine. As he was being taken to the hospital to get checked out, he sent you a grateful smile. You just nodded, patting his arm as they loaded the van.

"Ms. Parker, we need to ask you some questions." you turn at the call of the two detectives.

"What happened tonight?" you sighed, that was a tough question. You could barely comprehend yourself all that took place. You knew for a fact that you couldn't tell them everything you saw, no doubt they'd call you crazy and lock you in the madhouse.

"There was a break in. I'm not sure how but I think he disabled the cameras, he was after some kind of flash drive. "

"This one." The male held the thumb drive in his palm and you nodded. "Yes! H-How did you get it. H-He fell out the window.."

"Well, that's what we're trying to find out. See the drive and your attacker was found handcuffed to a police vehicle with a gun. We ran his prints, turns out this isn't the first heist he's attempted. You're very lucky. Your actions saved not just yours but also Mr. Reese's life. This man isn't known for being merciful to witnesses." you swallowed at that. So he hadn't just been taunting, he really did intend to kill the both of you.

"(Y/N)!!!" You'd know that voice anywhere. You turned just as May came ducking under the tape. She ran over to you in a hurry, almost getting stopped by some of the officers.

"It's fine let her through." She approached quickly.

"Oh my goodness I told you this wasn't safe, are you alright, did that man hurt you!" you shook your head, and May hugged you, running a hand over your head in relief.

The males before you exchanged a look. "We'll let you go for now, you've been through a lot. " One Of them pulled out a card, handing it to you. "We'll be in touch. Try not to leave town for a while, we'll follow up. " you nod, taking it. "Alright, thank you." he nods, taking off with his partner. May still looks shaken, and you could only imagine what she must have felt when she got the call.

"I'm so glad you're okay, you have no idea how worried I was when that officer showed up at my door. " you grimace. That's exactly what happened when she found out about Uncle Ben. The fear of losing not just her husband, but also you, it's probably constantly on her mind. She's ranting now and truthfully you barely catch the words. Your eyes shift to the building you'd not too long ago almost plummeted off. The shadow standing at the very top catches your eyes, and you take a step forward. In a blink it disappears, and now you're just staring.

"(Y/N)? Honey are you alright?" you blink again, looking at her. She watches the look on your face. "Maybe we should go to the hospital." They've already bandaged up your palms, and you aren't really looking forward to being stuck in a hospital right now, especially with the night you've just had.

"I'm fine Aunt May." She appears to believe the blatant lie you've just told, but you know from here on out, she'll be extra attentive. So right now, you just try to focus on two things.

Finding out what the hell that was on the top of the building, and understanding more about the obvious but unexplained changes your body is going through.

"One more door, then we'll get to the exit up ahead. I think we got all the men. "

There's a scream from the back. You turn in alarm. A man is there, and he's grabbed one of the girls, hand around her neck as he points the gun. The others start pushing to get away, and you grunt.

"Damn it."

You should have been more careful."

Matt stops. He's too far ahead to do anything, and Frank is on the other side ahead, clearing your exit.

"You damn vigilantes running around this place in freaking spandex. You really have no idea who you pissed off. "

The sneer of the male holds nothing but hate.

You stare at the woman he'd grabbed. She's the one who'd held the dynamite. For some reason she doesn't look scared. You understand why. She has a piece of wood. It looks like she's carved it herself. She keeps her eyes trained on you, and you read the silent message. She puts down two fingers, counting.

You give a curt nod, and when her hands clench into a fist, she stabs him in the leg. He yells, and she drops to the ground the same time you fire some of your webs. His body hits the wall harshly, and the gun slips. She runs to grab it. When she fires two shots, you jump. With shaky hands, she heaves, dropping the gun. From the look in her eyes, it's clear that this isn't the first time he's laid a hand on her.

"We have to keep moving."

You advise. They start to group together, and you move along. When you pass down the other hallway, you meet with Matt and Frank.

"We're in the clear. There are two cop cars parked two blocks down. You're going to have to draw their attention somehow."

"Leave that to me. I'm an expert at pissing off cops apparently. "

Matt smiles, and as the woman passes, they are grateful. The woman who'd shot the male is the last to pass.

"Rosie."

She points at herself.

"Rosie, you're safe now. " She's starts crying, and she moves in, hugging Matt. He pats her back, and she moves to you, doing the same. You rub her back, smiling.

"Stay strong Rosie." She wipes at her eyes, nodding as she moves with the other girls. You follow close behind.

"Keep an eye on Frank." you tell Matt.

"I will."
