No-One's P.O.V.
The four boys began to panic at the sight of the girl, a Girl they had only met a few minutes ago was now passed out in Donatello's arms. It was surprising at how long she lasted considering how bad the wound in her head was. Now they were left with a conflict that could put them in major trouble or could get them a one way ticket to becoming a lab experiment. "What do we do now?" Michelangelo asked. His eyes hadn't left the girl since she went unconscious, he felt a twinge of guilt for the state she was in, after all he had caused her to run around to take that weird brain thing of his face. Besides for being the first human he has met, she didn't scream at the sight of him nor did she give him a look of disgust. He pondered over the question why? A hopeful feeling consumed him whole. Maybe just maybe they could become the best of friends! Just think of it his first human friend. I'm mean sure he wish he could have met her like any normal person but for now he'll take what he can get. That is if she doesn't die! No one responded to Mikey's question. The leader in blue went over his options which weren't much. The options he had of keeping their identity kept secret were slim and put her in harm's way. He didn't know what those people sudden interest in taking this family but he couldn't just place her somewhere knowing they'll come back to take her. The four boys stood in the ally that supposedly Mikey had seen a brain.
His decision was made though he wasn't their official leader, he knew that they wouldn't reject his decision after all they did fail to save her family she was alone now all she had was... well them. " Mikey is 're taking her back to the lair." He stated. Raphael looked at his brother as if he was insane. Was he really serious on taking her to their SECRET LAIR?! Yes, he felt bad about her family being taken but those men took her family for a reason taking her to their lair was putting his family at risk! "Are you kidding? Do you want her to attract those men into our home?!" His anger blazed at the fact his brother would even suggest this. Donnie and Mikey stood silent. Both silently agreeing to Leonardo's statement there was no where safer for her than the lair. Raph didn't exactly see eye to eye. "Well unless you have a better idea, we're taking her to the lair." Raphael locked eyes with Leonardo both into an intense stare down. He try to think of any other options they had but none didn't place her in danger. Raph let out a puff of air along with an angry growl."Fine we take her to the lair!" He said pushing past Leo and stomping his way to the nearest man hole it was in the middle of the street where they fought previously it lead to the sewers down below. Leo simply rolled his eyes at his brother's actions already expected him to act in such a way. "Come on" he said. Donnie and Mikey followed him from behind following him into the hole that lead to the sewers. Mikey and Leo jumped in first being the fastest since they didn't have to carry a unconscious girl. He shifted his position and moved her to his shoulder doing his best to his ability to ensure her ahead doesn't get whacked. Don't get him wrong the girl wasn't heavy at all what was difficult was the fact of climbing down a ladder and making sure she doesn't slip from his shoulder as he moved. One hand was used to keep her steady and slipping off him while the other gripped the steps used to climb down as his feet to one step down after the other. It was a slow process and it made him use most of his physical strength. What seemed to take hours, finally he'd reached the bottom his feet touching the ground feeling a sense of relief wash over him. Not one scratch on the girl either...BONAS! He took great breaths he'd hadn't realized he wasn't breathing properly due to him holding his breath majority of the time. After he gain his breath and posture, Donnie held her in his arms again placing her in a bridal style position. His brothers had waited for him as soon as he was ready to walk again they continued to walk forward. Now and then he would check to see if she would awake but her eyes remind closed. She really did look pale which really scared him he hoped that she would wake up and not end up in a coma. From the looks of it, she had to be at least around their age maybe younger. Her appearance was not similar to her father nor sister in fact they didn't look related at all. Raph had taken the lead and walked considerably ahead while Leo walked behind giving him distance where as Mikey walked beside Donnie in the dark tunnels where only small lighted lights are the only thing that illuminated this place. They all continued to walk in the sewers in silence taking paths they knew would lead them home, the awful smells of well it could be anything garbage, waste, or even water but that was least of their concern what worried them was how they were going to explain to their father that they brought a Girl home.
The closer they got the more anxious and jumpy they seemed to get as far as they knew life was over, say goodbye to seeing the world again. Sweat started to from on their skin they we're only about 5 feet away from the entrance of their home. 4 feet...3 feet...2 feet...1 feet... The four teenagers stood there not wanting to go inside and speak to their father fearing this was yet to come to worse. "Shall we?" Donnie stated. Leo took a long breath calming himself and readying himself to explain the situation they were in."Let's go" he said trying to sound as brave as possible. As soon as they were in the lair their father was waiting in the training room meditating but had left due to hearing his sons return from their trip to the surface. As soon as he excited the room he was not prepared for the day that this would happen... they would bring a Girl home. The four watched as his eyes went from "Welcome back home" to "What did you do?!" Master Splinter's red eyes went from each of his sons to the girl in Donnie's eyes. " What is going on? Why have you brought her here?" His voice was firm and bit angered at his sons okay maybe not a bit. Fear was clearly evident in their eyes, Leo was the first to walk through the entrance jumping over the old subway card entrance. "I can explain." Leo said. His father stared straight at his eldest son with eyes with such intensity that Leo felt himself shrink in size. The words that he repeatedly practice in his head as they walked home were lost and replaced with emptiness. "Well...you see its a pretty funny story... you'll be laughing your whiskers off when you hear it." Was all he could manage to come up to say without fumbling over his words. Master Splinter raised an eyebrow questioning his son's sudden humor in all this. "Or maybe not..." Leo stated no longer looking into his father's eyes instead found interest in his 3 toed feet.
A mumble came from the girl what ever she had said was inaudible to process into words. The five faces right away turned to the girl fearing she'll awake however she only mumbled and began squirming in Donnie's arms. " As much as we like to explain, Sensei. I need to clean up her wound." Donnie said his eyes asking for permission to enter their home with the girl. "She's wounded? Of course Donatello bring her and place her on the couch. Leonardo please bring the first aid kit. Michelangelo bring a pillow and blanket. Raphael help Donatello attend to the girl's wounds." All four did as their were told as soon as it was commanded. Donnie walked in with the girl as soon as the others went to do as they were command only Raph was left following behind his brother. The two reached the couch as Mikey already had a pillow and blanket in hand. He placed the pillow on the couch as he awaited Raph and Donnie to finally place her on the couch. Carefully placing her on the couch was turned into challenge when she began squirming. Donnie did his very to place her with out him dropping her completely. So much so that he even needed Raph's help to grab her at one end while he grab the other and finally she was on the couch. Leo was right at his side with the first aid kit. "Okay Raph I need you to hold her upright so I can clean her wound." Donnie said as he began opening the kit and getting needed supplies. Raph with one hand placed it under the small of her back and pushed her up while the other hand held her on her stomach preventing her from plummeting her face on her lap. Donnie moved her hair around a bit so he could see the wound more clearly however he'd wished he'd hadn't because the wound looked like a big gash seeping it's blood out. It was to the point where he might have to stitch it up to close it no correction he HAS to stitch it up. He sat on the couch on his knees her back to him as he began to clean the wound with alcohol his father had given him. Without needing to be told Mikey Leo and Splinter stood by and held the needed medical supplies in their hands awaiting Donnie's command.
With gentle hands he cleaned the deep cut it was clearer to see now that the blood was removed. "I need to stitch this up can you..." before Don could finish his sentence Leo handed him the thread and needle. Careful hands began to stitch the open wound the process was slow. Don was glad that she was knocked out during this if not she would have been in great pain. As Donnie continued to carefully work on stitching her wound up, Master Splinter looked to the girl here hair concealed her face but he can still see some of her facial features. She looked so familiar to him like an image resurfacing in his mind that he couldn't seem to pin point yet he'd had never met her in his entire life! How could he know someone he has never even seen before? Yet here he was struggling to figure out when in his life time did he see this girl. Maybe it wasn't how he knew her...but who she reminded him of. One person came to mind a person he'd had long lost and it wasn't his wife no it was someone else that he'd had cared for very much but left for reasons that were because of him and someone else. The thought left him completely, there was no way this girl could be connected to this person! As much as he wanted to shut down that thought that sense of hope completely somewhere inside told him that she is the key to that person buried in his past, one of his most greatest mistakes, his most greatest regret that haunts him to this day. His thoughts were broken when Donnie finally finished with stitching her wound and now began to clean the blood that had continued to seep out. "Okay you can put her down now." Donnie said. Raph placed her down gently on the pillow as Mikey covered her in a blanket that covered her up to her neck. Her breathing was slow and even as she slept. Donnie moved from his spot off the couch and went straight to the bathroom washing the blood off his fingers.
The girl was left to rest until she awaken. All without a word or needed to be told, began picking up all the medical supplies and put them away all working in unison. The once anxious and jumpy feeling returned to them once more consuming them whole knowing that their explanation still awaited them. They hadn't even explained yet of the events that occurred however bringing a WOUNDED GIRL home didn't seem to bringing them any favor of not receiving a punishment. Leo believed that if they were to explain themselves they wouldn't be in much trouble yes bringing the girl here wasn't how he planed to tell his father but his father was a very fair and understanding father he would understand they had no other choice. Donnie returned from the washroom just as they finished picking up the medical supplies. "Dojo now." His voice boomed causing all of them to quickly scrurry into the dojo. They all sat on the Matt facing where the shelves that contained a picture of a man next to a beautiful woman that carried an infant girl in her arms. The boys sat upright on their knees awaiting for their Sensei to enter and stand in front of them. Master Splinter walked in his steps quiet only making his sons more nervous as he walked in front of them. His eyes pinned toward every single one of them making them squirm under his gaze making their mat the most interesting thing in the world. "Would anyone like to explain?" His voice was dangerously calm making all four want to run and hide. Leo found the courage in himself to speak his eyes looking directly into the eyes of his father as he spoke." Well you see this might take awhile to explain..."
