Chapter 1: Words can do so much
Just before the scalpel pierces my skin, there's a loud noise somewhere behind the cell and the torch goes out. There's movement in the room and I hear Gatson cry in pain as he falls over. There's a cling as the penknife that would have torn my vein is also flung aside. I can't believe my eyes when I see a familiar face observing me quietly. I thought she was dead.
"Im ok." she says. She and Casey are the only ones who know me so well to read my mind in such situations.
"Can you stand?" I nod, but the movement makes me dizzy. "Get on." Mary gestures to her back. I look at her as if she has gone off her rocker. She probably has.
"Don't worry, Casey is way heavier than you'll ever be." she says and helps me onto her shoulders with a little difficulty. I feel guilty for causing her pain. Its because of my muscles that I'm so heavy. One time Mikey had to help me back to the lair and he was going on about how heavy I was. Maybe its not just muscle.
Maybe I'm just fat.
We carefully exit the dungeons and Donnie is waiting outside in the Shell raiser. I'm exhausted, Gatson really did a number on me. My eyes flutter, but Donnie looks really panicky.
"Raph stay awake!" he shouts and I'm startled.
"Sorry but you could get a concussion if you pass out so just try for me okay?" I nod again, I'm hardly able to produce a sound from being locked up in that cell for days. With no food, no water and no one to save me. I have never felt so vulnerable.
Suddenly the shell raiser skids to a side. The needle goes right through my shoulder, eliciting a cry from me. Donnie looks at Mary, just as surprised who is screaming for some reason.
Then there is a loud boom and I smell smoke before the shell raiser explodes.
