This story is made for Halloween. I love Halloween and I thought if I made another Fan Fiction you guys who like my Fan Fiction would enjoy more for a holiday! I do not own Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. If I did, Leo wouldn't be obsessed with a stupid show in the 2012 series.
Chapter One: Tricks not Treats
It was Halloween night. The turtles enjoyed watching the cute young ones dress up and spend time with their families. But the turtles still didn't walk on the streets even though they pretty much blend in with the strange costumes. Leonardo had orders to stay on the roofs tops and don't let them be seen. Leonardo did this to watch over the lighted up city for crime behind the backs of innocence. Anything could happen on a holiday, especially Halloween.
"Look that them! They are so tiny and cute all dressed up!" Mikey said, smiling and sitting at the edge of a city building.
"Mikey don't be seen. Just because it is a holiday with dressing up strangely, doesn't mean we are going to blend in any better." Leo was being over protective as a brother and a leader at the same time.
Donnie with a note pad looked up at Mikey, "Leo is right Mikey, in different ways. One, if we were down there walking about, a child many see us and ask what we dressed as. We could hesitate and mess up. Yeah.. add that to the chart." Donnie said the last part to himself and began to write on the note pad.
Raph let out a loud breath of boredom, "Sence I am bored.." Raph sat next to Donnie, "What are you doing Don?"
"I am making a chart of good and bad possibilities that could happen if we were down there." Donnie answered. Raph lied on his shell and stared at the stars. It was like this for a while. Quiet and still. Suddenly Leo starts to sniff the air.
"Guys! I smell smoke!" Leo informed his brothers and everyone quickly stood. The four stared at the night sky where the source came from. The aroma of smoke hit people's noses. "Let's move!"
The four ran roof top to roof top to a building in flames. (Can somebody say Halloween fail?)
Screams of terror and none of pain erupted of people at the scene. The screams ringed in the turtles ears only making them run faster. The four stopped at a building across from the fire on the roof top. It was an apartment building.
"Fearless, plan?" Raph questioned not letting his eyes draw away from the flames and the terrified people.
"Get in unseen, find survivors and help them out. If anyone asks these are costumes. GO!" Leo ordered and the four separated into two unexpected groups. Mikey, being him jumped across the crowd of people below and on to the building. Luckily no one saw him. Right when Mikey's feet hit the roof top the roof below him collapsed and Mikey fell a story down. Raph ran to the roof top and peeked his head through the hole Mikey created.
"Are you okay?" Raph asked and Mikey looking up from the rubble covering his feet. Mikey shook the dust off him.
"Don't worry about me. Worry about the people trapped in the building." Mikey snapped and Raph was proud of the way Mikey put others first before himself. Raph jumped in the building the way Mikey fell in. "Where are Leo and D?"
"I saw them jump down the back alley. Probably going down to up." Raph answered and the flames around them made it hard to hear each other. "Start looking!" Raph yelled over the flames.
The Donnie and Leo jumped down the fire escape to the bottom. When they touched the ground a rumble sound erupted from the building.
"Leo I don't think the building will hold long." Donnie explained and stared up at the building.
"Then let's go!" Leo said and the two ran to a back door and busted through. The building level they were at didn't have fire. But it did have big glass window at the entrance. They both hid behind a check in desk. "We are still staying hidden."
"I figured." Donnie replied. Leo looked on top of the desk without being seen.
"Do you think there are security cameras?" Leo asked.
"Yea. This is an apartment building." Donnie said leaning against the desk.
"Well some apartment buildings don't. Anyways can you access them? It would be useful for finding people faster." Leo suggested.
"I'll try. You go and look while I fix it up. I'll call your T-phone." Donnie told Leo. Leo quickly ran to a stair case past the flames that covered every inch of the wall. The building was only five stories. Leo made it to the second story and looked around he saw no one around. Leo coughed into his elbow, the smoke was getting to him. That wasn't going to stop him. He ran into a room nothing but flames.
He saw a door way and had a feeling someone might be in there. Leo coughed from the smoke in the air. To get through the door way he had to jump over a wooden beam that was on fire. Leo ran past the fire on the walls and jumped the beam. He landed in the room and no one in it. Leo turned around to walk out but the ceiling from the hallway fell and Leo was trapped in the small room on the second story.
Leo foolishly tried to push the rumble from his path but burned his hands. Leo fell to his knees and held his hands to his chest. His coughing grew worse and the flames slowly but surely made it into the room.
Raph and Mikey checked the top floor no one was there. They went a story down to the fourth story and split up to look again. Mikey was coughing pretty bad and Raph was too but ignored it keeping an eye on his little brother. Raph walked down a hallway dodging sparkles and falling ashes. Raph stopped in place to the sound of crying. Raph went faster and slowly heard the cries grow louder. Raph ran to an apartment room door and kicked it down. A little girl sat there in the corner crying as the fire surrounded the room.
"I will get you out! You have to trust me though!" Raph shouted over the flames, "Do you trust me?!"
The little girl stopped crying and nodded. She slowly stood up and had a hand on a part of the wall not in flames. The fire around her roar and the girl shrieked.
"I'm scared!" The girl cried and Raph walked to her slowly.
"Give me your hand!" Raph shouted holding out his hand over the fire separating the two. The girl took his hand and Raph lifted her over the fire. Raph held her close to his chest and she snuggled in Raph's arms. "Don't worry I will bring you to your family."
The girl cried against his plastron and Raph ignored it. Raph ran out of the room and Mikey wasn't around.
"Mikey! Next floor!" Raph shouted and he looked down at the girl. She was sleep in Raph's arms. She must have been exhausted and stressed. Raph didn't blame her and Raph held her tighter in his arms. Raph quickly looked up and saw Mikey walked slowly to Raph coughing his head off. Raph went to him and handing Mikey the girl.
"You can't stay here. Your hurting yourself by staying. Take her outside, go to a different building. I have a feeling the building will not stay up long. I promise I will come out, alive." Raph said quickly and shoved Mikey to a stair case leading upward. "Go!"
Raph coughed violently and Mikey ran up the stairs. Raph smiled and went to the third story. Minutes passed and Raph haven't found anyone on the third story. Raph then jumped when his T-phone went off. Raph stared at the screen, Donnie was calling. Raph answered.
"Busy here saving lives!" Raph shouted into the T-phone.
"Sorry Raph, but I told Leo I would call him on his T-phone and Leo didn't answer. I think something happened. Have you seen him?" Donnie asked and Raph walked through third story maze of fire.
"I thought he was with you. I haven't seen him." Raph answered and found the stair case. Raph started coughing and stopping walking in the middle of the stair way because his could breath better there.
"Can you look for Leo? I am at the first story looking through the cameras. It looks like all the second story cameras burnt out. I think the fire started on the second story. Anyway, look for Leo and tell him to answer his T-phone." Donnie informed Raph.
"I will and is the fire down at the first floor?" Raph was curious.
"No, it is moving upwards." Donnie answered and it was silence from the rumbles coming from above. "I'll let you go I don't think the building is going to stand another five minutes."
Donnie hung out and Raph put his T-phone back in his belt. Raph ran down to the second level and ran down the hallways.
"Hello?! Anyone there?!" Raph shouted hoping to hear answers. Leo heard Raph shout for a sign of life. Leo not long ago found his T-phone's parts melted from the heat and the room with filled with tons of smoke he could barely breathe. Leo lied on the floor where most of the oxygen was, but it wasn't enough. He couldn't shout to Raph or he would loss his breath. Leo coughed softly feeling he can't make it through this. "Leo?! Please where are you?!"
Leo felt his heart warm up and not from the fire, but from Raph looking so hard to find him. Leo slowly moved his head towards the trapped doorway. Leo took a deep breath of what was left of the air.
"Here!" Leo shouted and he closed his eye. That took a lot from him and Leo coughed hard but quietly.
"Leo! Are you behind here?!" Raph shouted and Leo hear his voice clearer. It was the right place.
"I'm here..." Leo whispered out of breath and he blacked out. Raph started to panic when the coughing and the calls stopped. Raph dug through the rubble despite the burns he gained. Raph dug up the rubble making it lighter. Raph pushed the rubble away from the doorway and the room was filled with smoke when there was the new opening the smoke escaped the small room. Raph ran in quickly and found Leo limp on the floor.
Raph picked up Leo bridal style and ran out of the room. The rumbles grew worse, the building was going to come down any second. Raph ran down the hallway stepping on flames that were loose. Raph's shoulder hit a wooden beam that was on fire leaving a mark on Raph's shoulder. Raph made it to the stair way and to the first story.
"The building is coming down!" Raph shouted and ran out a back door that was already open. Raph ran into the alley way and Donnie followed close behind.
"Where's Mikey!" Donnie shouted and I sighed.
"I sent him off to safety.." Raph said trying not to cough. Raph jumped on to a ladder on a fire escape with Leo in his arms. He climbed up quickly so when the building goes down they weren't on the ground where the rubble will spread. Raph made it to the top of the building and quickly fixed the position Leo was in his arms. Leo was limp and still in Raph's arms it was concerning that Leo was gone. Leo then coughed a bit and his head turned to face Raph's plastron. Leo didn't open his eyes or talk, he almost died.
Suddenly a loud explosion sound played behind Raph. Raph slowly turned around and saw the building going down. Screams from the crowd on the other side of the building. Raph fixed his grip on Leo again and Donnie stepped up from the ladder.
"Lets find Mikey, then you can explain what happened to Leo." Donnie said quietly. Raph nodded and they looked around the nearest build tops for Mikey. "There!"
Donnie shouted and pointed across the street to a roof top. Raph sighed seeing Mikey sitting at the middle of the roof. Raph held Leo tighter and back up a bit. Raph sprinted and jumped across the clueless crowd. Raph landed on his feet not far from Mikey. Donnie follow in Raph's foot work and landed next to Raph.
"Told you I'd be back." Raph said quietly not wanting to hurt his throat from coughing.
"Raphie! I was scared that something happened." Mikey sees Leo condition, "Oh my kami." (Kami is Japanese for god.)
"Where's the girl?" Raph asked placing Leo down on the ground.
"She said she wanted to talk to you went you came back." Mikey said looking at Leo. Mikey pointed to the other end of the building, "Over there."
"Thanks little brother." Raph said patting Mikey's and Mikey went paled.
"Did he? He thanked me..and patted my head!" Mikey said to Donnie and Mikey did a little dance. Donnie check Leo out while Mikey had his own little party. Raph smiled and walked to the girl.
"Hey, you ok?" Raph started.
"I am now that you saved me.." The girl turned to Raph. She was probably in age eight. She had black long tangled hair, a light pink dirty and burnt long dress with holes, dirty tennis shoes, brown beautiful eyes, she was pale and skinny for her size. "I'm Lisa. I don't like telling a lot of people but I have no family. I have a home, sort of. I get no visitors."
"Why were you in the apartment building, Lisa?" Raph asked.
"Because it is Halloween. I thought I could get candy to feed me for the night. When I went in there was no one around. Then the fire.." Lisa said in fear from the last part.
"I was help you until things are set right." Raph was determined to help the girl till she had a home. That was a promise. Lisa smiled at the red masked turtle.
"Thank you." Lisa said hugging Raph. Lisa like his promise and a promise he shall keep.
