CH:7 Getting Friendly

After I get dressed in Leo's room with him waiting outside the door, I couldn't stop adjusting my clothes. They didn't really have anything for a shirt but thankfully they had lots of those dark gray wrappings that the turtles use. So I wrapped them around my chest, over my left shoulder and halfway down my torso. This gave my breasts some much needed support since I'm definitely not small enough to get away without. Only the bottom half of my tank top is torn to shreds, so I cut off all the shreds on the tank top and wore it over top of the wrappings like a crop top. 'It's a good thing that my kind always maintain a core temperature, I never have to worry about being too cold or too warm.'

As for the bottoms, well my old pants were literally torn to shreds and barely covered my butt, so there is no saving those. Thankfully Leo gave me a pair of what he called, "basketball shorts." They were a nice light silky material. Mostly white with blue stripes down the sides, but way to big. I had to shorten them by about half their length with my claws and then I stitched in both of the sides a bit. Turning them into white fluffy short shorts with a hint of blue on the sides. I had to cut a fairly large sized hole just below the band in the back for my tail and thanks to this, these shorts will not fall down. Just for the heck of it, I also took a few long strips of what is left of my old pants and tied a cute fluffy bow with the semi see-through white material to the back of my pants. Thanks to the hole I cut, it sits perfectly centered ontop on the base of my tail, with the ties dangling on either side. 'Gotta enhance the view hehehe...' I start giggling a little maniacally at the thought.

I also decided to copy the turtles a little bit with the extra wrapping material. I covered the palms and knuckles of my hands going up to just pass my wrists. I also wrapped around my feet for a little extra protection completely covering them except for my toes.

Since Leo suggested sparring I decided to also braid my hair and used a small piece of wrapping to tie off the long braid at the bottom.

All done, I went to open the door just to have Leo fall on me. Our faces were so close that I could feel his breath being knocked out of him.

After a few frozen seconds of staring into each others eyes, barely an inch apart. He stumbles off of me, clearly embarrassed, "So sorry Ying. I was just leaning on the door." He says as he helps me up.

"All good Leo, accents happen." I say trying to brush off the incident and put him at ease. But instead he just stares at me with huge eyes as his face becomes darker and darker from blushing really hard. "You okay, Leo?" I ask as I'm starting to feel awkward.

"Oh, y-yeah. Sorry, it's just... you look good in that sparring outfit." He manages to stammer out as his face is becoming multiple sades darker then the rest of him.

I giggle as Mr. Cool is having a hard time keeping his shit together. 'I should probably give him an out' and with a sigh I through out a suggestion, "So you said that you wanted to spar?"

At the mention of sparring Leo's brain finally started working again. "Uh, Yeah! Right! I wanted to see what kind of skills you have." He says with a warm smile.

"Well if that's the case then I guess I won't go easy on you." I smile mischievously as I declare my challenge. Leo just chuckles in return and finally moves out of the doorway to allow me to pass.

I move to the edge of the walkway and jump with only half the strength in my legs as I land gracefully in the centre of the sparring area 10 meters away from where I jumped, shocking all the turtles who saw. Leo jump down from the platform and then walked over to me with shock still plastered on his face.

"I feel like I should warn you now. My main skill is that I can manipulate the energy within my own body, making myself way stronger and faster than I normally am" I explain to Leo as understanding flows across his face.

"Well that is a good back-up plan but we need to work on your basic skills so I'm going to ask you to not use your abilities in this sparring session." He says with a straight face.

"Party pooper." I point out with a pout as our spar begun.

I did better than Leo hoped since I actually knew more then just a basic fighting technique. After all I had quite the fascination with martial arts. Although I'm still not as good as I was expecting. "My muscle mass must have withered a bit in the stasis pod." I mumble to myself as I rub my shoulders and angrily looking down at my body.

Leo sits beside me on the edge of the sparring circle and hands me a bottle of water saying, "You just need some more training and you will be back to where you were in to time." He finishes with a smile and without knowing I smiled back.

"I know you're right but it's just infuriating. It feels like just yesterday I was way stronger than I am now." I explain with a sigh.

Mikey hears this as he is rolling by on his skateboard and starts to laugh as he says "Well to you it really was just yesterday." While chuckling the whole time he's talking.

This really irks me for some reason so I just point my finger towards his skateboard and give a little energy blast and blow up one of his wheels, sending him flying. Raph sees this and falls of the couch laughing his head off. I even got a chuckle out of Leo.

Just then a cacophony of alarms go off, startling all of us. Leo, Raph and Mikey immediately ran into Donny's lab with me confused as ever following right behind.
