April/Zarr-Narron was out of control, but Mikey really didn't want to hurt April, she struggled in Raph's grasp.

"Mikey! Do it!" Raph commanded. Mikey raised his nunchuck, but couldn't bring himself to do it. Then she broke from his arms. Mikey watched in horror as his older brother was held in the air by April's powers, Mikey knew he was going to die, just like Donnie had died, and he could do nothing to stop it, but Raph managed two last words.

"Remember, Donnie." he choked out, and then *pop* he was gone too, just like that. But his words echoed through the city, and April suddenly seized the crystal, smashing it to the ground, and she dissolved into tears.

"I'm sorry, so sorry," she wept, Mikey knelt and patted her back, letting his own tears flow.

"It's ok, it's...not your fault." he said as Leo and Casey helped her up. She fixed her watery gaze on him.

"Yes it is." she said. "I let the crystal control me."

"Nah," Mikey said, "no, how could you have known April? It's ok, really…" but then April gasped.

"Guys! Raph and Donnie, they aren't dead!" Leo raised his eyebrow.

"Yes," he said gently, "we saw them die, you did too April." April shook her head.

"They weren't killed, they were just...cleansed."

"Uh, ok." Mikey said, "calm down." April grabbed the fragments of the crystal.

"I can feel them out there." she said, and closed her eyes, Leo and Casey backed up, but Mikey stayed close, in case Zarr-Narron came back. Suddenly, Mikey felt something in the air, like magic. High above them, where Donnie had died, a faint glow appeared, and right in front of them too. The glow's suddenly zoomed towards each other, meeting by the sidewalk, near a mailbox. They solidified and Mikey gasped as he saw two figures drop to the ground. One was tall and lanky, the other was short, and had big muscles.

"Donnie! Raph!" he cried out, running to them, April dropped the crystal and smiled as Mikey greeted his brothers in bear hugs. Then Mikey noticed something strange, Leo did too, they all did. Both of Raph and Donnie's masks had turned maroon.

"What the shell?" raph muttered, "don, we're, alive?"

"No." donnie said sarcastically, "we all died, yes we're alive shell brain!" Mikey felt his eyes watering with tears.

"I love you guys." he said, grabbing them by the neck and pulling both of them in.

"Wait," leo said, "why are your masks maroon?" raph and donnie looked at each other.

"Whoa," raph said, "that's,"

"Weird." donnie finished, "huh, must be from"

"whatever happened to us." raph said

"I can explain that." april said, "Zarr-Narron wanted to cleanse you, so she split you into hundreds of particles and spread you through the city, it'll probably take a while for your masks to look the same…"

"Cool." raph said, "I always liked maroon."

i know that these are way over done, but yes it's an alternate ending to 'power inside of her' here's the prologue!
