The Tender Trap by SleepingSeeker

**Fan Fiction Competition Winner**

​

My take on the romance between Leo & Karai. I use the term romance loosely, this tale is darker than others depicting this pairing. Here goes: Always the protector, stoic & noble, Leonardo is undone by the mysterious & dangerous Karai. Despite the strong efforts of Raphael and even his father to stop him, Leonardo follows his heart and where it leads may be his end. Rated: T – Loosely set in in 2012 universe, more of a blending of the 2003 and 2012. – Leonardo and Karai

From the First by KameTerra

**Fan Fiction Competition Winner**

​

There wasn’t supposed to be a first time, much less a third.

Bedtime Stories II by radiumcandy

​

April, don’t read this. It’s just schematics for a new boiler.  I don’t think this is what she expected when I said I’d teach her nawajutsu.

I give her an indulgent smile, patting the top of her head; she glares at me, but doesn’t pull away. 2012 verse Rated: E – Explicit sexual content. – Donatello and April O’Neil
