Hi! Welcome to my first TMNT fanfiction. Don't worry, it's not bad. At least, I hope not. Anyways...

Leo's P.O.V

Darkness.

That's all there is.

Darkness.

It surrounds me.

Consumes me.

It's all I can see.

And all I can hear is them. The voices. Their voices.

Raph.

Donnie.

Mikey.

"YOU DID THIS LEO!" Mikey shouts.

"IT'S YOUR FAULT LEO!" Donnie blames.

"YOU LET US DOWN LEO!" Raph bellows. I curl into a ball, cupping my ears in an attempt to silence their voices.

"I'M SORRY. I'm so sorry..." My voice dies away, unheard in the darkness.

~TMNT~TMNT~TMNT~

Raph's P.O.V

My dreamless sleep is interupted by a piercing sound. A terrifyingly loud sound that I don't hear too often. Leo's scream. Wait, Leo is screaming? Leo! I jump up, sais at the ready. His shouts gets louder as I run into the hallway. I hurry to his door, only to find it locked,

"LEO! LEO, YOU ALRIGHT?" I question, pulling desperatley on his door. Donnie and Mikey rush out of their bedrooms, weapons out, and smack straight into eachother. They fall back onto the floor,

"What's goin' on, Raph?" Mikey asks, sitting up. Donnie pulls him to his feet, rubbing his own head.

"Help me!" I say, urgently, "It's Leo!"

The two of them come and help me pull.

"OK. Ready? One, two, three, PULL!"

Yanking the door open, we find Leo thrashing about in bed, half his sheets on the floor.

"No, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!" Leo murmurs, still asleep.

"Leo?" Donnie asks cautiously. Leo doesn't react.

"Leo?" I echo, gently laying a hand on his shaking shoulder.

"AAAAHHHHHH!" Leo screams, sitting up suddenly. We jump back in suprise, our own screams mixing with those of our big brother's. Leo stops abruptly, panting heavily.

"Leo?" Mikey says softly. Leo stares at us.

"You alright?" Donnie says, equally as soft. Leo blinks, then swallows,

"Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine." He rolls his shoulders, casually,"So...? What are you guys doin' in here?"

We stare at him, then glance at eachother.

"Are you crazy, Leo!?" Mikey questions, confused.

"You were screaming not two minutes ago!" Donnie adds. Rubbing the back of his neck, Leo laughs nervously.

"I was?"

"How do you think we're all awake?" I ask, starting to get increasingly worried.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to," Leo stops to yawn," Wake you."

"Yeah, but, why were you screaming? Did you have a nightmare?" Donnie asks, wary of Leo's stubborn 'inability' to talk about nightmares.

"Oh. It was...nothing." Leo says, but he holds his breath at the end of the sentence, the same way he does when he's lying.

"Really?" I ask, knowingly. Leo chuckles,

"Just a silly, old fear of mine. Nothing to worry about." Leo glances at us, seeing our disbelieving faces,"Uh, DARKNESS! Yeah, darkness was what the dream was about, yeah..."

I narrow my eyes at him, then stand, still a little unsure.

"Right, well, night bro." I say, comfortingly, motioning for the others to follow me out. Leo waves slightly,

"Night, Leo." Donnie says.

"Seeya in the morning bro!" Mikey exclaims, giving Leo a quick goodnight hug.

"Night guys." Leo says through a yawn. I shut the door and the three of us glance at each other doubtfully.
