-------
It took awhile but after some hikingI had found a place to camp for a few days.
Sadly those few days turned into 3 weeks since I couldn't find anyone at all.
The only thing close to actual people was a dam monkey like.
As a certain fictional character had once put it, aw fuckberries.
So I've been stuck in the stupid jungle for 3 weeks and so far I've lost my mask and used it as bandages for my hand thanks to tussling with the huge monster like looked like a combo of a T-Rex and wolf.
It was pure luck I survived, that dam thing ripped my stiches and fucking smashed my hand well.
But I killed it; sadly I took some of its meat and ate leaving the rest for the real meat eaters.
So things are good for now.
Especially since my side is all better now and I can move again.
I walked through the trees passing a few fern looking plants and some weird rocks, the rocks some reason glowed dark green when I passed.
It was freaky, at first I thought it would be my way home and tried everything to get them to work.And of course knowing my luck nothing worked at all, dammit.
I grumbled under my breath about the stupid rocks walking through the thick area of trees still, I so far hadn't explored it fully, but hell I'm trying!
I paused in step hearing something.
"What the?" I headed for the source of the sound, god it sounds so much like a swamp meet they had down town with so many voices floating through the air.
I felt my pace go faster excited to hear some voices.
I prayed my brothers would be there as well; I got closer slowing my pace down scaling a tree so I could peek over unseen.
Hell even when excited and anxious I gotta remember I'm a mutant turtle, and I'd rather not have a whole gaggle of people hunt me down.
I climbed the branches finding one with enough leaves to cover me and high enough for me to stay out of sight, I looked down blinking seeing mutants and people mingling happily before my vision strayed to a throne looking area.
I think I nearly fell out of the tree seeing Leo sitting in one of the thrones blue and white paint curled around his body looking like flames were dancing on him, he looked so sad and bored eating a fruit.
"What the hell…" I mumbled still looking at him for a moment, as he suddenly seemed to get sick and start coughing really badly.
---------
I took another bite of the fruit feeling my head swim, my vision blurred.
Okay maybe eating this fruit wasn't the smartest idea…
I let my head rest on the back of the chair feeling my world go round as I placed my hand over my beak feeling a little sick…
Okay a whole lotta sick…
I felt my gag reflex start to work as I hunched over thankfully keeping my meal in me.
I slumped back in the seat closing my eyes panting as some of the villagers came over starting to do things to me, I can't really tell though anymore...
"Aww shell." I mumbled feeling my mind click off, everything blurred worse than before as I finally went lax. I could barely breath anymore from feeling hands start to lift and place me down on something like a pole maybe…
Everything feels so weird…
A felt a rough jerk and then I was being carried off someone carrying me, the sound of footfalls and yelling following after who ever was carrying me.
Today is not my day…
--------
I sighed as mikey tugged on my hand giving me the puppy eyes "Mikey we can't go, we already know their dead" I said bluntly.
He sighed and glared back at me "They aren't dead, I just know it… I have this gut feeling!" he said stubbornly.
I glanced back seeing our father sitting on his meditation mats looking older by the second, he lost two sons in one go, it had hurt him so badly to lose Leo and raph…
I know if we keep dragging this stuff around in front of him it'll only hurt him more.
"Mikey doing this is only hurting sensei worse… stop it" I mumbled pulling out of his grip.
"Please donny… please…" he begged his eyes watering some.
Were 21 years old and mikey still acts like a dam kid.
"Okay, we'll go look again!" I said trying not to be agitated with mikey.
Mikey smiled "Thank you" he hugged me lightly before pulling away so I could head to the lab and open the portal.
It had been a few years and I made a portal device from taking apart Baxter's ray gun, it had been fun to rebuild to open only at someone's will.
I pretty much raided his lab after he FINALLY died.Mainly my will, I went over to it tapping a few buttons on the machine making it whirr awake then click on making a doorway appear, of course I attached a time limit on this, if it took any longer than two hours it would automatically transfer us back.
--------
I sighed lightly as Leo failed to respond to anything at all, I nudged him lightly "Come on leo wake up…" I rumbled.
He didn't even twitch at my words his breathing shallow.
God I don't want him to die…
I just saved his ass from being eaten by a bunch of crazy natives,I piked a few of those dirty bastards as well, what ever the hell was in the fruit he ate, it really got to him.
I sighed again as I glanced back at him, the paint from earlier was smeared, the necklace around his neck had broken off while I was carrying him, his skin was paler sweat dripping down his forehead as he slept. He liked like hell and back.
"Pull through okay Leo, cause if you die, I'll freaking kill you," I muttered closing my eyes listening to the rainfall.
---- Whoooo another chapter, yeah i know mega late, but i kinda forgot about this story thanks to my life taking over again.
