As you may have guessed from my profile picture, I am a huge fan of Donatello. He is my favorite out of all the turtles. He's just so cute. I just want to squeeze him, hug him, and just build some sweet tech with him. He just makes me so happy! 'Cough' Right, my reason for doing this story. I want a female Donatello story that isn't weird, the turtles know that Donnie is a girl, and isn't gross. Sorry, no romance in this at all, so please don't ask. I'm doing the '03 turtles since I liked this series the most. I might do the other seasons if this is successful and the other turtle shows with a female Donnie. I will also be adding a few of my own episode ideas because I feel like it and it's fanfiction. I can do what I want. Sadly, I don't own the turtles. Anyway, I've been going on and on so... I hope Y'all enjoy. :)

It was a typical night in New York City: crime, walks in the moonlight, pizza delivery boys, you know, the usual. But tonight, things changed and it was good for everyone. My name is Leonardo and right now my brothers, sister, and I are in a mess of trouble. Our backs are up against the wall in some thrown alley, cornered by the toughest street gang on the east side.

"Look at the freaks!"

"What's with the dweeby costumes?!"

"This ain't Halloween!"

"You're going down freaks!"

The gang members each sneered at the apparent people in giant turtle costumes. Each member was carrying a deadly weapon: pipes, chains, even baseball bats. "Nobody messes with the Purple Dragons! Especially wearing stupid turtles costumes!" The one who appeared to the leader sneered at the figures. They revealed themselves to be four 15-year-old turtles wearing ninja masks of four different colors and four different weapons: a bo staff, two sais, two nunchucks, and two katana blades.

He's wrong. We're not wearing costumes.

"HIYA!" All four shouted as they jumped into the air, ready to face the purple dragons.

Deep in the sewers of New York, four young turtle mutants were training with their master. Master Splinter was teaching his three sons and daughter.

"Remember to be a true ninja, you must become one with the shadows. Darkness gives the ninja power, while light reveals the ninja's presence," Splinter said as he flipped the candle off his staff and caught it in his hand. "Now can you extinguish this flame without revealing yourselves?"

He heard someone from his right. Before the figure could get the candle, Splinter lowered the candle causing his only daughter to skid towards the wall. "Too noisy Donatella." He heard footsteps from his front, he spun around and kicked Michelangelo. "OW! Hey!"

"Too clumsy Michelangelo." He heard footsteps from behind. The figure jumped up to attack but Splinter ducked out of the way as the figure landed on the ground. The figure with two sais then charged again, but Splinter bent down and tripped him with his walking stick, sending him crashing into the other two.

"Poor choice Raphael." A fourth figure wearing blue was waiting for his chance just above Master Splinter. He dropped down and using his katana blades, he sliced the candle in half and caught it with one of his swords. He put it up to his face reveal a mutant turtle wearing blue.

Splinter turned the lights back on and said as the others stood up, "Well done Leonardo."

Once the lights turned on, everyone was revealed. A mutant turtle wearing a blue bandana, he is the oldest and the leader. His name is Leonardo. Another mutant turtle wearing a red bandana with two sais, his name was Raphael. He may be the hot-head of the team but his loyalty to his family will never waver. A third mutant turtle wearing an orange bandana and has nunchucks, he name is Michelangelo. He may be a goofball, but he knows how to help his siblings. Finally, the fourth mutant turtle, who is wearing a purple bandana, which was braided, with a bö staff is named, Donatella. She is the only female in her entire family but don't let her being a female fool you. She is smarter than all of her brothers combined, can build amazing tech, and can defend herself without the help of her brothers. There are times though that she wished her brothers weren't so protective of her.

"Teacher's pet," Raph said mocking Leo. "Ninja dropout," Leo quipped back as he tossed the candle at Raph. "Ooooh." Mikey and Donna taunted. Raph growled and crushed the candle in his hand. The two were about to fight but Master Splinter stopped them. "My sons!" Splinter sighed as his sons and daughter knelt down in front of him, "My children if you are to become true ninja you must work harder. Your path in life will not be an easy one, the outside world will not be a friendly place for you."

A fly started to buzz around Mikey which distracted him from Master Splinter as he continued, "You four are different in many ways the surface dwellers may never understand. To survive you must master these skills I teach you, ninjutsu powers of stealth and secrecy. You must become kage, shadow warriors and you must never be discovered by the outside world." At this point, Mikey has focused all his attention on the fly and he eventually killed it. Master Splinter walked in front of him and Mikey smiled sheepishly.

He was about to ask his youngest son a question but the shaking ground took him out of his thoughts. It also appeared that Michelangelo failed to kill the fly. "Huh? What is that noise?" Splinter asked. The turtles stood up and looked around them. "Whoa! Earthquake!" Mikey said. "In New York? Possible but not likely." Donna jumped out of the way as the ceiling appeared to be falling from the sky.

Rubble came crumbling down around them until many small robots with sharp teeth came through the wall. "What are those things?" Leo asked. "New York City cockroaches?" Mikey said. "Whatever they are, they picked the wrong party to crash!" Raph said as he charged in to fight the strange robots. Donna soon joined the fight as well, using her bö to fight the strange robots that invaded their home. Mikey used his nunchucks to destroy the robots. "Hey, Leo! Think fast!" Mikey said as he threw one of the robots at Leo and he sliced it in half. Leo sliced more and more in half with his katanas. Master Splinter was also destroying all the robots that seemingly attack him and his sons and daughter.

Leo then noticed that Splinter needed help. "We have to help Master Splinter! Come one!" Leo shouted as he and his siblings rushed to help their teacher/father. It took them all some time but they managed to destroy all the strange robots that invaded their home but during the fight, the robots chewed through the structure of their home which caused a collapse of rubble to fall. This caused the turtles to be separated from their master. "Master Splinter?!" Leo shouted. "Master Splinter?!" Raph shouted.

In frustration, Raph smashed one of the robots that moved its head and then he put his sais in his belt. "What the shell are those things?" Mikey asked. "Whatever they were, they're junk now," Raph said as he kicked one of the robots. Meanwhile, Leo and Donna were trying to find a way around the rubble. "Guys, Splinter. We've got to find Splinter. Master Splinter?! Master Splinter, can you hear me?!" Leo shouted hoping his master could hear him. "Donatella, any way you..." Before Leo could finish his sentence, he looked to see his sister messing with one of her inventions. "What are you doing?" Leo asked. "Shell Cell. I'm calling Master Splinter... I hope," Donna said as she tried to call her master.

On the other side of the rubble, Master Splinter was lying on the ground until a ringing noise caused him to get up. He seemed to be unharmed. He groaned as he rubbed his head. He then reached into his pocket and pulled out the phone Donatella made for him. It opened and shined a green light. "Hmm... which button do you use to answer this thing?" Splinter asked himself not knowing that he already answered it.

On the other side of the rubble, the turtles were relieved that their master was okay. Leo grabbed the phone from Donna's hand as Splinter kept saying hello and pushing random buttons. "Master Splinter, are you alright?" Leo asked. "Stupid device," Splinter said over the phone. "Master Splinter... you don't have to press any buttons. You already answered it. "Ah. Leonardo, whatever those mechanical menaces are, they have managed to eat through the support structure of our home." While Master Splinter was talking to them, the turtles huddled together to hear their master better but Mikey got to close to Raph and he kicked him which caused Mikey to groan in pain. "We must leave right away. Meet me at the old drainage junction at South Point." While Master Splinter was talking to them, the turtles huddled together to hear their master better but Mikey got to close to Raph and he kicked him which caused Mikey to groan in pain.

Donna got a map out of her duffle bag which had all the routes of the entire sewer system. "If we take the South Conduit, it will intersect with the old drainage tunnel," She explained. "We'll meet you there, Sensei." Mikey rushed over to his brothers and sisters. "What'd he say? What'd he say? Did he mention me?" Mikey asked but instead of answering his questions, Raph shoved him in annoyance.

"Good-bye, broken pipe. Good-bye, grungy payphone. Good-bye, dented man-hole cover. Good-bye, home sweet home," Mikey said out loud. "Hello, cruel world. Come on," Raph said as he dragged Mikey by his orange bandana. The turtles left their home and noticed that the machines did more damage then just inside their home. "Looks like those things have been through here," Leo said as they left their home. "These walls are seriously compromised. We're lucky this roof hasn't caved in," Donna told her brothers but they suddenly stopped since the roof did cave in. "You were saying, sis?" Raph said. Leo groaned in frustration. "Can't go forward. Can't go back." Raph smirked. "Looks like we go up," Raph said as he headed towards the ladder leading up to the surface. "Hitting the surface is a bad idea," Leo said as he stopped Raph from going up the stairs.

"We've got no other way to go, Leo," Donna told her brother. Leo groaned knowing his sister was right. "Alright, but we're only going up to go down the next manhole. Got it? No fooling around. Remember what Sensei said. It's dangerous for us to be seen, let alone captured. We need to stay out of sight," Leo told his brothers and sister. "We got it the first thousand times, Leo. Just follow my lead!" Raph said as he started to go up the ladder to the surface. Raph slowly opened the manhole cover, looked around and jumped out into the shadows. Leo was next but he took a better look around before getting out. "Come on, Leo, move it. I don't want to be staring at your butt longer then I have too." Donna scoffed. "Mikey, how do you think I feel? I'm staring at your's and Leo's butt!" Donna said from below. "Sorry, D." Leo shushed everyone. "Guys!" Leo quickly covered the manhole and ducked down and Raph hid in the shadows of the alley. 'I'm so not going to get the image of my brother's butts out of mind head.' Donna thought to herself.

A man riding a motorcycle drove by the alley without seeing a thing. Raph left the alley and jumped from one place to another to hide from any human and to search for any manholes. He smirked as he spotted the manhole. "Ahh. Manhole, 12 o'clock," He said to himself. Raph jumped off the pipe that he was clinging to and jumped behind a parked car before a passing car could spot him. He was about to enter the alley but a truck drove by causing Raph to hide in front of the car. "Now what?" Raph whispered to himself.

The truck parked in the alley that Raph was about to enter and three guys got out and enter the building they parked next to. Raph entered the alley once they were gone hoping that the manhole wasn't covered but once he did look, he was less than pleased. "Great. Just great. The old turtle luck working true to form." Raph kicked the truck in anger.

"Way to be stealthy, Raph!" Leo said quietly but loud enough for Raphael to hear. "Yeah, I don't think they heard you over in 'Jersey.'" Mikey said with Jersey being in an accent. "Give me a hand?" Mikey was about to clap his hands but Raph stopped him. "Don't even think about it, Mikey." Leo shook his head and signal Raph to come back but he refused. "Ah, forget you guys, I'll push it myself!" Raph was trying to push the car but he and the others heard the group who owned the truck coming back. "Hide Raph! Come on! Hurry!" Leo told him. With little time to hide, Raph jumped inside the truck. Donna, Mikey, and Leo groaned at what their brother did. "Poor choice, Raphael," Mikey said out loud.

The man with blue hair, who appeared to be the leader, came out first. "Did you see the way that guy squirmed when we took his cash?" One of the guys said like something funny happened. The man who was the leader laughed. "Yeah. Cheap man. Sheep to be fleeced by us wolves." They threw the bags full of money in the truck and closed the door with Raph inside. They even locked it with an electronic lock and drove away. Leo, Mikey, and Donna hid behind the car as they drove past them. "Oh, man." Leo groaned. as he, Mikey, and Donna came out of their hiding spot. "Imagine their surprise when they open the back of that truck," Mikey said out loud. "Mikey, this isn't the time for jokes. We have to get Raph before he gets seen by those humans."

"Donna is right. This isn't the time for jokes. Sensei was right. We've got to get him out of there!" Leo said. "Last one to the roof hatched from a rotten egg!" Donna shouted as she and her brothers raced up to the rooftops. Once they got to the top, they watched the truck drive away. "We can cut them off at third and first!" Leo said quickly. "If we run like crazy girls at the mall shopping for shoes," Mikey and Leo looked at her confused. "I watch chick flicks and girly shows from time to time. Let's worry about this later. Let's go save Raph." Then the three chased after the truck that Raph hid inside.

They jumped from rooftop to rooftop chasing after the car and Mikey was ahead of them. "You guys are too slow!" Mikey shouted but stopped once he saw Donna and Leo jumped over him. "Never call a girl "slow," Mikey!" Donna shouted. "Hey!" Mikey shouted as his brother and sister ran ahead without him. Like shadows in the nights, the turtles jumped from one rooftop to another silently, they had to move fast to keep up with the truck with their brother in it. Mikey ran a bit faster to catch up with Donna and Leo. As he was running, he saw a clothing line and used his nunchucks to go across it but in doing so, this caused him to get a blanket in his face blinding him and he fell on the nearest rooftop. He sniffed the clothes. "Hmm. Springtime fresh!" He threw off the blanket and ran to catch up.

Meanwhile, Splinter was making his way to where he was going to meet his sons and daughter. "Ah. The old drainage junction. Now, where are my children?" Splinter suddenly felt the ground shaking again. He looked down and scowled as he saw the ground below him was cracking. The robots that attacked their home appeared again.

Back on the surface, Raph was still in the truck and his brothers and sister were chasing it down to save him for getting caught. After the truck drove for another few minutes, it parked in an alley. Raph hid again in case they opened the back again. Four men got out of the truck, two of the men entered the building while one stayed near the truck and the one with blue hair said, "Hey, Two-Ton, watch the truck. We don't want someone to steal our stolen money." The man with blue hair laughed as he went inside the building.

Unbeknownst to them, Leo, Donna, and Mikey were watching them from above. At first, Mikey and Leo looked at Donna and she whispered, "If you guys think I'm providing the distraction. Think again." Then Leo looked at Mikey and forged a plan in his mind.

A noise took Two-Ton out of his thoughts. He looked around to see what made the noise. He suddenly felt someone tap his shoulder. "Hey, this is a no parking zone," Mikey said while waving his finger. "Here's your ticket and here's your fine." Mikey showed him a piece of paper then kicked Two-Ton knocking him out. "Nice work, Mikey," Leo said as he dropped down. Mikey shrugged his shoulders. "It's a ninja thing," Mikey said as Donna dropped down as well. The three turtles walked over to the truck their brother was trapped in. "Now, let's get Raph out of there," Leo said as Raph was banging on the window shouting, "Let me out of here." Mikey looked at the electronic lock. "Man, whatever happened to good old-fashioned padlocks?"

"Heh. Padlocks are so last season. Besides, where's the fun in that? This one is all mine," Donna said proudly as he got two screwdrivers from her bag and spun them around. Raph said something through the window of the truck but no one could understand him. "What's that, Raphael? You're gonna have to speak up, dude. I can't hear you!" Mikey said teasing his older brother. Raph growled in annoyance and punched the window. "Okay, I heard that." Donna turned around and looked at Mikey. "I'm trying to work here, Mikey. A girl needs her time to work on delicate things like this."

Back in the sewers, five of the robots that attacked the turtles home were surrounding Splinter. One of them bit his robe and shook it, like a dog with a toy, Splinter then used use tail to make it stop causing it to fly through the air and hit the wall. This seemed to do little to no damage to it since it roared back at him. Two robots them charged at Splinter.

Donna was still working on getting the electronic lock unlocked and after a few more minutes, she successfully opened the door. The three turtles backed up so Raph could come out. "Hey, Raph! Welcome back, bro!" Mikey said then Raph jumped out of the truck and tackled Mikey. The two play wrestled with Leo and Donna watching. "What a hothead," Leo said bluntly. "Tell me about it." Donna and Leo turned to their right and noticed the owners of the truck. "Uh, boys," Donna said. "We don't have time for this," Leo said as he and Donna drew their weapons. "And why not?" Raph asked holding Mikey up to a wall. "Because we're not alone," Mikey said as Raph let him go and the turtles were now cornered by the Purple Dragons.

"Look at the freaks!"

"What's with the dweeby costumes?!"

"This ain't Halloween!"

"You're going down freaks!"

The gang members each sneered at the apparent people in giant turtle costumes. Each member was carrying a deadly weapon: pipes, chains, even baseball bats. "Nobody messes with the Purple Dragons! Especially wearing stupid turtles costumes!" The one who appeared to the leader sneered at the turtles. Each of the turtles drew their weapon, leaped into the air and attacked the Purple Dragons. They defeated the Purple Dragons with ease and once they got up, they ran away in fear.

"Give me some green!" Mikey said then he and Raph hive-fived. "Well, that was easier than expected. Bet they're embarrassed since they got their butts kicked by four turtles, especially a female turtle," Donna stated. "I hope there are more of those guys. I'm just getting warmed up," Raph said. Mikey felt someone watching them. He turned around and saw many shadow figures on the rooftops. "Uh... well... I think you got your wish Raphie-boy." Mikey pointed to the rooftop and they all saw the shadow figures.

Leo was shocked to see them. "Are those guys... ninjas?" More than 20 ninjas black covered ninjas, with what appeared to be a foot symbol on their uniforms, jumped down from the rooftops and surrounded the turtles. "Well, they're certainly ninja-esque." Leo got into a battle stance along with Raph, Donna, and Mikey. "Be ready for anything."

"I am so gonna enjoy this," Raph said dangerously calm. Donna jumped behind the ninja and tripped them with her bö staff. More charged at her and tried to swipe her with their swords but Donna quickly defeated them. "Never mess with a girl and her brothers." Unfortunately, the ninjas recovered quickly. Dinna growled in her mind. 'Okay, didn't think that would happen.'

Three of the ninjas surrounded Raph and threw one punch after another but Raph dodged each one. "Nice dragon kick. Sweet double Phoenix punch. Hey, you know this one?" Raph kicked all the ninjas in one fell swoop.

Leo was in a sword v sword fight with one of the ninjas. He was able to push him back then he jumped on the closest platform but one of the ninja's also jumped on the platforms. The ninja ran on the wall and tried to swipe Leo with his sword but Leo blocked the attack with his sword. Another ninja went onto the platform and both tried to attack Leo with their swords but Leo kept blocking each attack. Leo groaned because he was now struggling to hold the ninjas back.

Mikey was using his nunchucks to defend against the ninjas tofas. Donna blocked some shurikens that were being thrown at her but she was unable to defend the ninja from kicking her. She slammed onto the truck along with Mikey. "Donna, are we beating them or are they beating us?" Mikey asked hoping his smart sister would have an answer. Donna was about to answer but she quickly opened the door to the truck and dragged her brother in before they were hit by many shurikens. "Ask me again when we're winning, Mikey."

"Yeah, that's what I thought," Mikey said as he looked at the shurikens embedded to the car.

In the sewers, Master Splinter was able to successfully defeat all the robots. One was about to attack him from behind but Splinter was able to destroy it. He was about to leave when all sudden, the ground started to shake and a big hole opened in the ground and Splinter fell right into it.

Splinter slid down a slide like passage until he safely landed in the middle of the sewers. He dusted himself off and looked around. He gasped when he saw a bright light.

Leo started to get surrounded by more ninjas until they were holding him back but Leo managed to push them off. He jumped back to the ground along with Mikey and Raph. "How many of these goons do we have to bap before they get the hint?" Raph asked. "Really! They just keep coming," Mikey said. Leo looked around and he didn't see Donna. "Where's Donna?!" Leo asked. "Working on plan B," Mikey told him.

"I'm almost there, Leo. Gotta give a girl some time," Donna said then she attached the last wires together. She could tell because the car engine started. Donna got into the driver's seat, closed the door, and called out, "This bus now leaving for... anywhere but here!" The turtles jumped into the truck and closed as Donna started to drive away. The ninja's jumped out of the way to get out of Donna's crazy driving.

"Whoa. Nice driving, Dee, for a turtle with no license." Mikey told her then Donna looked back at her brothers. "Hey, I may be a girl but the only options here are either pretty or effective. Take your pick," She retorted back as she was driving. "I gotta tell ya, this has been one mondo bizarro day. First, all those metal robot things underground. And what's with all those ninjas? Ninjas in New York City! Besides us! It's just not right!" Mikey said like there being other ninjas in the city was a crime.

Raph picked up one of the duffle bags and opened it, revealing a lot of stolen money. "Talk about not right. Check this out," Raph said as he dumped the money on the floor. Mikey smiled as he picked up some the money. "Show me the money, baby! Wha-hoo!" Leo took the money from Mikey. "This isn't Finders Keepers, Mikey."

There was a police car not far from where the turtles were driving. They quickly stopped by the car and gave them all the bags full of money. "Take care of this money, will you guys?!" Leo shouted as he threw the bag full of money onto the police car then Donna drove off.

One of the cops eyes widened in shock. "Did you see that?! Some little green men in an armored car just threw a bunch of money at us!" The older officer scoffed. "Rookie."

Donna drove into an alley and drove into a fence that leads straight into the sewers. She kept driving until they reached their destination. They all got out of the car and saw Master Splinter in a meditative position surrounded by the strange robots that destroyed their home. Splinter stood up as the turtles rushed over to the father/sensei, happy to see that he was safe and seemingly unharmed.

"Master Splinter, you're alright!"

"Sensei!"

"Thank goodness." Splinter smiled. "Well, I'm glad to see you too, my children."

"Master Splinter so much has happened today," Leo told him excited to tell him about their adventures on the surface. "Yes, yes, there will be time to tell me all about it later, Leonardo. But first, I wish to take you all home." They all looked at their master confused. "Home?" Mikey asked confused. "We got no home. Those robots trashed our pad. Remember, Sensei?" Raph asked.

"Do not worry. I think I have found a solution to our current housing problem," Splinter explained as he walked over to a hole in the ground. "Follow me, my children." Splinter then jumped down the hole. Leo jumped in next, with Donna following in pursuit. Mikey was about to jump but called, "Cowabun..." But before he could finish, Raph pushed him down. Raph laughed as Mikey shouted, "Not funny, Raph!" Raph smirked. "Oh, yes it is," Raph said before jumping down himself.

All of the turtles slide down but they all landed on top of each other. 'Glad I was on top instead of the bottom.' Donna thought to herself. They all stood up and Mikey exclaimed, "Wicked slide!"

Master Splinter continued to move forward. Mikey ran to catch up with him. "No offense, Master Splinter but this place doesn't seem so great," Mikey said as he looked down the tunnel. "Look with your heart, Michelangelo, and not with your eyes," Splinter told him as he continued to move forward. "Uh... okay," Mikey said confused. Splinter noticed his youngest son had stopped walking so he said, "And walk this way."

Mikey smirked as he began to imitate how Splinter walked stopped when Donna whacked him on the head with her staff causing him to scream, "OW!" She smirked at her little brother. "Don't make fun of, Sensei."

They continued to follow Master Splinter and looked in awe as they all entered a large open space that had columns, an opening to the river, and even though there was debris everywhere, they all smiled the moment they realized they had found their new home. "This is beyond awesome!" Mikey exclaimed excitedly. "You know, I bet I could really tune this space up," Donna said thinking of everything she could do their new home. She was especially excited that she would finally get her own room. No longer sharing with her brothers. Donna loved her brothers but a girl needs her privacy once in a while. Mikey climbed up one of the pillars, landed on the next floor up and started calling out as he pointed to each of the rooms, "This room here is mine! And right where your standing D, also mine!"

"You see my children; change is good" Splinter said. "We couldn't agree, Master Splinter," Leo said. Master Splinter smiled but his smile then changed to a smirk as he said, "Good, so let's see you four clean-up for a change. This chamber is filthy."

All of them groaned, "Oh man!"

A man wearing a white and grey Japanese fighting uniform with the same red foot symbol as the ninja the turtles fought earlier, poured some tea into a cup. He stared at the leader of the Purple Dragons intently. It was obvious that this man was not pleased.

The leader looked at the man fearfully and said, "Sir I…I uh…my men….we lost the armored car with the money but we were attacked…b-by some sort of karate frog creatures or something. They took us by surprise. It wasn't my fault…"

"Enough," The man said, his glare not once leaving the man cowering on the floor. "I promise sir. I won't fail you again," The leader said. It was obvious in his tone of voice that he was terrified. "I know. You won't fail me again. Ever," The Japanese man sneered. The leader's eyes widened in terror as the man stood up and walked up to him.

"No, sir! Please!" He begged but it was too late. The doors slammed shut and all that you could hear were screams of pain and a sick twisted laugher that echoed across the building. The same foot symbol on the front of the building.

Yeah. So, a girl Donatello. Her name explanation will come when April meets Splinter and the turtles. I will try my best to update but no promises. I'm in school so I'm really busy with my college classes. Because of the genderbent Donatello, there is a chance I won't do every episode or I might tweak it a bit in my favor or just do a something different entirely. (With some inspiration from the fans perhaps) I hope y'all enjoyed the first chapter. Don't forget to fav, follow, and review, please! See Y'all next time! :) Also, let me know if you have any question. I'm happy to answer all of them.
