TMNT

Okay, y'all wanted a sequel, so here's a sequel. Raph's angry, Donnie's not quite healed, Mikey's feeling guilty, Leo's being over protective, and the Kraang are ticked! They want revenge, so they're going to get revenge. Hope y'all enjoy this.

Leo's POV

It's been 5 months since my two baby brothers were kidnapped by the Kraang. They took my two youngest brothers, Donnie and Mikey, from me. Donnie was forced to work for the Kraang and build machines because he was so smart. If he refused, Mikey, his only little brother, and I know Mikey is literally everything to Donnie, would be punished and tortured. His cries would get Donnie to work or work faster if the Kraang thought he wasn't working hard enough. After me and Raph were finally able to rescue them successfully, the Kraang knew Donnie's brain could be the end of them. So, they tried to kill him. They left Mikey as bait and went to kill Donnie. We got there in time, but he was so close to being killed. He was in a coma for weeks.

And, now that you know the story, I bet you're wondering, ' Well, where was Leo and Raph while their own little brothers were being kidnapped?' I have an answer. The answer will make you think of me as a horrible brother. I sent Donnie and Mikey West, while me and Raph checked East. We left them. We allowed them to get captured and hurt. I COULD OF LOST DONNIE! HE COULD OF DIED!

I will never take that chance again. I don't allow them to go Topside anymore. I can't risk losing them again. I was foolish and selfish once and I will not do that again. Losing them hurt me more than when Karia stabbed me in the shoulder blade with my own katana.

'' LEO! IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN!", I hear Raph scream. Not again. Mikey and Donnie are having more nightmares! The nightmares won't leave! They haunt all of us.

'' NO! GET AWAY! LEAVE HIM ALONE!'', I hear Donnie scream, and I run to Donnie and Mikey's room( they share a room now because Donnie's scared someone will take Mikey away) and see Donnie fighting in his sleep again.

'' Donnie! Donnie, bro! It's okay! You're safe! Mikey's safe!'', Raph screams, as he tries to get Donnie to snap out of it. Sensei runs in, and takes Donnie's shoulder.

'' Donatello, please, calm down! It's okay.'', Master Splinter says, and Donnie's eyes pop open. He gets up, shaking heavily.

'' I... I'm sorry, guys.'', was all he said, before laying his head back down. Mikey crawled in his own bed, and began to fall asleep.

'' We keep seeing everything that happened. I can still feel the whip slicing through my skin.'', Mikey whispers. I walk over to him, and wrap my arms around him. Raph does this with Donnie. We got a serious reality check. We're not letting anyone hurt them ever again. They're not going Topside ever again.

'' It's alright. The Kraang hurt you when me and Raph weren't around. Now that we're around, who's going to be stupid enough to try and touch you?'', I ask.

'' I'd kill them all. No one is ever taking you two from me again. Leo would of still had a little brother. I would of lost both of mine. You guys... all of you... you're everything to me. Mikey, Donnie, I know I'm a huge jerk, but... I can't lose you guys. You all mean just so much to me. A big brother is suppose to protect his little brothers with his life. I should of been more caring and let you guys know-'', Raph's words were cut off by Donnie.

'' You honestly thought we didn't know you loved us?'', he asks.

'' I didn't say it enough.'', Raph responds. Mikey and Donnie look at each other, still in our arms, and shakes their heads.

'' Bro... how could you think we didn't know you loved us?'', Mikey asks.

'' You showed you cared about us more than once.'', Donnie says.

'' Leo actually said it before. I didn't say it at all. In fact, the last time I said ' I love you' before this, was when we were 5. 5, guys.'', Raph says, and he gets up really quick. Donnie looks at him, and looks down.

'' Not true.''

'' You've said it after that.'', Mikey says. Raph sighs.

'' I just... can't forgive myself that easily.'', Raph whispers, and walks off. Donnie continues to look down, and Mikey hugs me.

'' When will things get better, Leo?'', he asks, quietly. I wrap my arms around him and hold him in a strong grip.

'' I don't know, but they will get better, baby brother, I promise.'', I tell him, though, I didn't believe my own words. I know Mikey surely didn't believe them. I can't protect my brothers. I failed them.

'' L-Leo... can you go check on Raph?'', Donnie asks, pulling the covers over himself, and I heard a small sniffle. Donnie still blames himself, that or the pain is still really bad. Or both...

'' Sure, Donnie.'', I smile kindly at my younger brother. I get up, and I look back at them. '' You're safe now. There's no reason to be so afraid.''

I walk out and search for my brother, to find him by the lair door, his sais clenched in his hands.

'' Raph?''

'' They could be still searching for us, Leo. They could be working with the Shredder. They could take them away again. I'm not letting them take my baby brothers from this family anymore. I won't fail again.'', he tells me, staring at the door.

'' They won't find the lair, Raph. They can't.''

'' What if they put some kind of tracker in Donnie or Mikey?'', Raph snaps. He stares at the door.

'' Don't you think they would of attacked us by now?'', I ask, trying to reason with him. It's like he's completely lost his mind.

'' They're waiting for us to let our guard down. They want us to let our guard down.'', Raph says. Yes, my brother has completely lost his mind. He's been so paraniod he's lost it. I can't believe the Kraang situation effected us this much.

'' Calm down, Raph. No one is stupid enough to come in here while me, you, and Sensei are in here.'', I try to calm him down. I take his shoulder and he lets out a sigh.

'' I guess you're right.'', he says, and puts his sais back in his pouch.

'' Of course I'm right.'', I smile at him, and he smiles back. It's a sad smile, but it's a smile. It's better than anything I've gotten before.

'' I'm going to head to bed. I... I just need some time to think by myself, okay?'', Raph doesn't let me respond before he walks away. I sigh, and stare at the lair door. What if the Kraang really are after us? What if they did manage to track out Donnie and Mikey? What if they take them from me again.

NO! I will not allow that to happen. I will do everything in and beyond my power if I have to. I'm not going to let anyone take my baby brothers from me again. I know I'm suppose to be the strong one, because I'm the oldest, but I can't live without my brothers by my side. I honestly don't think I can handle losing them. I nearly killed myself, literally, when I thought they were dead. It hurt way too much. I won't take that chance again, so I won't have to worry about it anymore. They're so going to hate me for this...

Raph's POV

I slam my bedroom door. I just wish my brothers were safe. I just wish they were safe forever. As an older brother and younger brother is that so hard to ask for!? I just don't think I can keep living with this untamable guilt I continue to feel everytime I look or hold one of my little brothers. Donnie especially.

'' It's not your fault, Raphie.'', usually, I would yell at the person who dared called me ' Raphie' because I use to hate the nickname. That is, until Donnie and Mikey nearly died the way they did. I realize they call me ' Raphie' when they're scared and need their older brother to protect them.

'' Yes, it is, Donnie.'', I say, trying to hide my emotions, not looking at my little brother. I hurt him. I hurt him.

'' You couldn't of controled this. If you were able to, you never would of allowed this to happen.'', Donnie insists, and I feel his presence getting stronger, letting me know that he was walking closer. '' Please... Raphie, I know you feel guilty, but, please, don't shut me out. I can't lose you, Raphie, please.''

'' You won't lose me, Donnie, and I won't lose you. Nothing in this world will ever tear apart this family ever again.'', I insist, and get up and hug him. '' Nothing will ever take you from me again.''

'' You don't know that. They're out there, Raph.''

'' And me and you are here.'', I tell him. I look at him, with much despair in my voice, even though I don't want it to be there. '' Don't you trust me to protect you anymore?''

'' It's not that I don't, but, Raph, the Kraang did things to me and Mikey that I don't even think you and Leo could handle.'', Donnie says, and my heart nearly stopped at that moment. Me and Leo are way stronger than Donnie and Mikey. But, if Donnie says he doesn't think we wouldn't be able to handle it, then we might not be able to.

'' I could take anything if it meant protecting you guys.'', I tell him. He shakes his head.

'' I don't want you to face what me and Mikey did. I wish Mikey never faced what he had to face.'', Donnie says simply. My heart begins to ache. I can't begin to describe how much it hurts me that Donnie and Mikey are so afraid.

'' I'm sorry, Donnie. I should of got there faster. Maybe they wouldn't of hurt you and Mikey as bad if I just had been faster.'', I sigh. Donnie shakes his head.

'' No, it's not your fault, Raph. It's mine. I should of escaped with Mikey, or at least got Mikey out of there. They kept watching me like a hawk. I didn't want to screw up because if I did they would of hurt Mikey.'', Donnie says. He goes to walk out, but I take his shoulder.

'' I'll never let anything like this happen again.'', I say. He nods, and walks out. I turn back around, and when I hear my door shut, I fall to the ground and break out into tears.

Donnie's POV

I walk back into mine and Mikey's room, to see Mikey asleep, on my bed. I roll my eyes. I swear, he has his own bed for a reason. He always just uses mine knowing I'm still going to sleep there. I limp to the bed, and crawl in, making sure not to wake Mikey up. I smile as he curls in beside me, feeling my presense and yawns again. I wrap both of my arms around him. I won't admit this to anyone, but I love when Mikey is near me. When he's safe, unharmed, and home. He needs to stay here. The Kraang might still be after us. Mostly me. They said something about last time my intelligence was too much for them and could lead to their destruction. Wait... I hold the answers to destroying the Kraang once and for all.

I can actually defeat the Kraang with my knowledge. I mean, I knew I was smart, but I didn't think I was that smart. This is perfect. My brothers will be safe with the Kraang out of the way. Or, at least, one step closer to being safe. With the Shredder being out like he is, I don't think we'll ever be safe. I miss the way it was before we ever left for Topside. We were all safe. We might not of met April and Casey, but we'd be safe.

'' D-Donnie...'', Mikey whispers, opening his eyes a bit.

'' Yeah, little brother?'', I ask, holding him closer. Everytime I look at him, his screams flashback into my mind.

'' I'm still scared.''

'' So am I, but I highly doubt we're in harms way. I mean, Leo, Raph, and Sensei are right in the other room.'', I tell him. He nods.

'' I can't get it out of my mind.'', he whispers, tears forming in his eyes. I hug him tighter.

'' I know, neither can I.'', I tell him. It was true. I couldn't. I only see someone trying to hurt Mikey to get to me. If I really hold the answers to what the Kraang want, Mikey is in grave danger. He's the most important one to me. I'd do anything, even take my last breath, if it meant saving him.

'' I love you, Donnie.'', Mikey whispers.

'' I love you, too, Mikey.'', I whisper back, and feel myself being pulled into a deep sleep. Mikey's warm presence causes me to slowly close my eyes, and fall into a deep, well needed, sleep.

Mikey's POV

Donnie fell asleep, but I'm still awake. I stare at Donnie. Everytime I look at him, I imagine him pushing me out of the way to protect me back at the Kraang station.

''Mikey! Watch out!'', I remember him shouting. I looked up and saw a Kraang about to shoot us as a punishment for not listening. I was too weak from the electricity that previously shot through my viens, so I was too weak to move. My older brother pushed me out of the way, and was shot directly in the chest.

'' Donnie! No!'', I remember crying as I watched his body fall to the floor and lay still. He died. Donnie died...

I shutter at the thought and tears begin to form in my eyes. He somehow came back. It wasn't the Kraang who brought him back. The Kraang wanted and still wants him dead. He's so smart he could find answers of taking the Kraang out. The Kraang know this and they aren't exactly willing to allow that to happen. They nearly killed Donnie for good, if Leo and Raph hadn't gotten there in time.

Raph and Leo haven't exactly forgiven themselves. It hurt them worse when Donnie was in the coma state. I ran off in anger when Casey tried to tell me that Donnie wouldn't wake up. I wasn't mad at him. I was mad at the world. The cruel world took my best friend from me, and it was time I had to face reality. Casey had to be the one who told me. Leo and Raph were too broken dealing with the possibility of losing their little brother; Sensei was lost in grief trying to accept he would have to bury a son; April was heart broken when she heard and hasn't talked until Donnie woke up; Casey was the only one. I know what I said was a little too harsh, but my anger took over and spoke for me. My harsh words were just a sign that I was hurt beyond words. I had to accept Donnie was dying.

But, Donnie didn't die. He woke up. He held me as I cried, and even cried with me. I didn't lose my older brother. I didn't lose my best friend. No, the world just wanted to see what I would do without him for a while. Believe me, I haven't been away from Donnie since the accident. I don't want to separate from him again. I don't want to lose him again.

And, I won't. Donnie is here to stay. He even said it. He promised he wasn't going to leave again. He means it. He does, right? I just don't think I'll be able to live with myself if something ever did take Donnie away forever. I don't want to lose him. And, forever is a long time. A longer time without my best friend by my side. I just love Donnie so much, you know? I love all my bros. I'd go crazy without Leo barking up orders. Or, Raph being the protector he is. Or, Donnie making me feel important to someone.

April's POV

I run the brush through my hair and sigh. I called Leo a minute ago and he said Donnie and Mikey were asleep. I wish Donnie was still awake. I wanted to ask him out on a date or something. I was foolish once to hide my feelings from him, but I will not do that again. I do care about him a lot. I have a crush on him, okay? Is that what you wanted to hear!?

I planned on asking him out today, but I'll have to wait until tomorrow. My best friend, and hopefully soon-to-be-boyfriend, is a mutant I nearly lost. I admire the way he went above and beyond to protect Mikey. It hurt all of us when he was in that coma state for weeks. Mikey was scared to death.

Of course, that's the past. Yes, I still have nightmares of losing Donnie and Mikey, but I won't let the past continue to haunt me. Donnie will heal. So will Mikey's spirit. Soon, everything will be okay again.

Casey's POV

I lay down on my bed, and sigh. April told me last night she doesn't think me and her would work out. She's going to ask out Donnie. But, Donnie does deserve her. I just can't hide how much this hurts.

Splinter's POV

I jump up from bed, and let out a small cry. I had another nightmare. Donatello and Michelangelo were taken away again. But, that's not what's happened. Leonardo and Raphael are as protective as ever. Nothing will happen to them. Ever again. As long as we're all together. I just wish I could take away my sons' pain. I love them so much.

Bigger and better chapters to come. I hope y'all like this. It took me forever to do! Enjoy, and R&R!
