Several months after the death of Oroku Saki, the Shredder, on Christmas Eve several members of the Foot, as well as the Shredder himself seemingly resurrected, would jump and beat Leonardo to the brink of death, and throw his body through the window of the turtles ally April's Second Time Around store. Shredder and the Foot would attack the turtles, setting the building on fire, and with the help of Casey Jones, they managed to escape to his grandmother's old farmhouse in Northampton, Massachusetts.
