Some TMNT stuff really isn't for little kids. |
Oroku Saki, also known as Shredder, is the leader of the New York City Foot Clan and a major enemy of the Ninja Turtles.
History[]
Shredder launches a psychic attack against Master Splinter. The Turtles' sensei is stricken and shocked, but launches a counterattack that frees him from Saki's mental trap. Shortly thereafter, the Shredder calls his Foot Clan to battle, stating that the time is ripe to assault their weakened foes. Splinter rouses his students from their cold slumber and leads them to the snow-covered woods, where the battle will take place. In short order, the Turtles are surrounded and attacked by the Foot Ninja, who vastly outnumber our heroes. In a quick and bloody battle, one of the Turtles loses his hand to a sharp blade. Splinter calls out to his other sons to save the hand. Once this is accomplished, the ninjas retreat back into the forest. Shredder allows his enemies to flee, stating that he is satisfied with this victory... for now. Souls Winter
A crow has retrieved a fallen fetish from the woods that was lost by Master Splinter and has carried it to the city, where it lands on Oroku Saki's windowsill and taps the glass. Shredder is amazed at the birds appearance and the fact that Splinter has lost possession of the artifact. The bird continues to tap, annoying the Shredder - until it explodes and destroys the window. Saki recovers from the blast and emerges from the rubble of his room. He is angry that Splinter is toying with forces beyond his control and sets out to meet his oldest foe. On his way, he finds a couple arguing in the street. Shredder grabs the man by the throat, lifting him bodily from the ground, and commands, "Love one another." Shortly thereafter Saki finds their lair. Splinter commands the Turtles to kill the intruder, but Shredder has little trouble besting the Turtles in their hibernated state. Then, to everyone's surprise, Shredder makes the attempt to heal the fallen Turtle. Souls Withering...
