Guess what? It's another story, but it'll probably be awhile before I work on this one though. I wanted to at least get this preview up before I did anything else.

I don't own TMNT.

A New Start

Preview:

Leo rubbed his temples as he stared at the glowing screen, "Anything Leatherhead?"

"I'm afraid not Leonardo," the mutant crocodile said with a sigh as he turned away from a giant computer screen he was using, "There's nothing I can do. I fear they will remain this way."

"Leo?" a quiet voice said from behind them.

The two mutants turned and watched as a small green form flew towards the blue clad turtle. The blue clad turtle sighed and bent down to scoop the small turtle tot into his arms. The young turtle's red mask stood out against his dark green skin as he wrapped his tiny arms around Leo's neck.

"You have a nightmare?" Leo asked his younger brother.

The young turtle shook his head, "It's Mikey, he knocked me and Donny out of the bed again."

Leo groaned, "I don't know what I'm going to do with that hyperactive turtle."

The blue clad turtle turned to Leatherhead once again, "Are you positive that nothing can be done?"

"I'm sorry my friend," the mutant crocodile said apologetically, his eyes falling to the floor in sorrow, "There's no reversing the process but I'll continue looking and if you need any help, please let me know."

Leo stood up with his little brother still in his arms before bowing to Leatherhead, "You've done more than enough for us, thank you."

"I'll help you with anything you need."

"Thank you," Leo said again, standing up and shifting the red masked turtle in his arms, who rested his head against the blue clad turtle's shoulder before yawning and blinking slowly, "We'll-I'll be eternally grateful for anything you can do for us. You're welcome to stay as long as you wish, please excuse me, this little one needs to get to bed."

Leatherhead nodded and turned back to the computer as Leo walked to his room to see his purple masked little brother on the floor next to a fold up bed, where his baby brother was curled into a ball shivering, for the blanket was wrapped tightly around Don. The turtle tot in his arms stirred and Leo glanced down to see bright hues of blue staring back at him.

"Leo?" the tot asked.

"Raphael, you should be sleeping."

"Bu, Mikey kicks us ot bed n' Don never eben wakes up," Raph muttered as his speech slurred through his woozy mind.

"Want to stay with me tonight?" Leo asked.

Raph smiled and nodded slowly. Leo held him with one arm as he slipped Don back into the bed next to Mikey with the other and tried to untangle the blanket with his only free hand. Finally succeeding, he tucked the blanket around his two sleeping younger brothers before walking over to his futon bed and laying down with Raph still resting his head on his shoulder.

As the night began to age Leo glanced down at Raphael then across the room at Donatello and Michelangelo. All went from 16 to four in a matter of minutes. The eldest turtle glanced at the ceiling. Stockman would pay for this. As the evening became even blacker Leo sent a silent prayer into the heavens.

"Father, help me," Leo whispered.

Well, I'll expand this into it's story form later but I have "MY Brother" and "The Art of Brotherhood" to finish and all my schoolwork. I can't believe I finally got into college courses in my new high school. Wish me luck. Oh and review please? I need to know if anyone's interested or if I should just dump it. Oh and I know I talk about deleting stories a lot. That's because, truthfully, I delete half the stuff I write since it's absolutely terrible. If I posted everything I wrote I would probably have to have a search box on my profile for people to find the story that they want.
