This is my "I'm sorry for not updating any of my fics" fic, it's kinda sad but hey! enjoy xx
Alone in the candle light
The candle's flame flickered slightly as the turtle sighed. The Dojo was pitch black except for the five little candles that were in a row, there used to be five mutants gathered round them but now only one was left.
The candles were all different colours, One was blue, another was red, the tallest was brown and there was a purple one and an orange one.
The brown one was in front of them all, the flame looked weak. When the turtle blew on it it went out quickly with a little smoke trail coming off it, there were tears in the turtle's blue eyes.
Each candle represented a life, when blown out it meant the life had been taken.
The brown candle had represented the Father of the family.
The brown candle was pushed away as the turtle coughed weakly, the red candle was next.
This one represented his brother, Raphael, the hot-head.
The turtle had to try three times to blow this one out, this was a tough flame just like the life it represented.
The poor mutant was growing weak, he didn't have much time left but he had to finish. It seemed like the right thing to do!
He placed the purple one closer and blew it out. He couldn't bear to watch.
All that was left was the orange and the blue candle, The turtle sighed sadly as he reached for his brother's candle.
He held the little orange one in the palm of his hand, tears streamed down his face as he took a deep breath and blew out the energetic flame that was once his baby brother.
He coughed and weazed as he picked up the last candle, his candle. His time was at an end, he wished it had ended before everyone elses! It had been a lonely month as he fought his life threatening illness.
He coughed and the flame went out, he could feel a trickle of blood run down his chin, He was drowning in his own blood.
He smiled and lay on the dark floor, He closed his eyes.
Bright flashes of his fondest memories flashed before his eyes, he grinned as he saw the sweet smiling faces of his little brothers, the wise smile in his fathers eyes.
He felt warm as the images faded to white, he opened his eyes to see a single white candle on the floor in front.
He stared as four more appeared, he heard someone clear their throat behind him. He spun round to see his family.
They smiled at him and opened their arms, he ran to them with a grin. They linked arms and made their way to the afterlife. Together again at last.
Only short but that's because i gotta lot of fics to update ;D Please Review xx
