Quick blood and violence warning. Don't worry, it's not gory or even that much. I just thought I'd give a nice heads up!
As the three brothers watch their youngest race for the door they began to worry. Suddenly, a thick metal door was dropping itself over the exit. Raph quickly handed his load of young turtle over to Don and began to try and hold the door up. Leo could see he was failing miserably so he set his young turtle gently on the floor. But even with their combined strength, they could not even slow the closing door. Taking one last look at Mikey, they knew he wasn't going to make it. Suddenly, they saw their youngest brother bowl his load under the door. Leo caught his ankle and pulled the tot in just before the metal slammed down.
"No! Mikey!" Raph began pounding the metal barrier separating him from his younger brother.
"Raph that won't help!" Leo picked up the giggling child who seemed to have had a blast.
"Shut up Leo! He's in there with no escape, do you expect us to leave him?"
"Do you think I don't know that! He'll find a way out! Mikey always finds a way…" Leo handed the still chuckling tot to Donnie who had already set the oldest on the ground. Don just turned away with a look of sorrow in his eye staring at the giggling child that reminded him of his cheerful brother.
When Leo turned around to pick up his shivering young turtle, Raph grabbed ahold of one of Leo's katanas. "Hey! What are you…?"
Raph began hacking at the barrier.
"Stop, that won't work! You're going to break my…" Raph threw down the two shards that were once a complete katana.
Scooping up the passed out turtle, Raph started to walk down the hallway. Donnie was close behind trying to handle the squirming baby. Leo walked over, placed the first broken piece into his katana sheath, then the handle. He then went over and carefully picked up the now violently shaking toddler, then jogged after his sorrowful brothers.
"Think Mikey! Think!" Mikey looked around. Alarms were deafening his ears. Knowing that there was no way of getting through the metal door, he ran through the rows of cylinders. Lasers began shoot at him from behind. Three Kraang droids stepped out in front of him. Mikey took a sharp right causing the droids to shoot each other down.
After running for a while, Mikey decided that he needed to go up. He jumped between two cylinders to get to the top. He jumped across each, running in no particular direction. Looking up at the ceiling, Mikey had an idea. The young ninja took out his Kusarigama chain. His plan was to use the chain to hook onto one of the chutes above and climb up and out. The sharp hook caught in a chute. Pulling it tight he began to climb. Lasers were firing again. He climbed faster. However, he did not go fast enough. A laser nicked his right leg on his ascent. Crying out, he held fast, not allowing himself to let go. Another grazed his hand. For a bit he hung by one hand. Pulling himself together he hauled himself the last four feet. He was now safe in the chute, but for how long? He balanced inside with his carapace and left leg holding him inside the tube.
"Great," Mikey held his hand close to his chest. His right leg just dangled. After he had again pulled himself together he began the awkward climb. Using a sort of shimmy method, he slowly moved up the chute one step and a half at a time. A few drops of his blood were sliding down his leg. His next step with his right foot caused him to slip in the fresh blood. Falling a good three feet down the chute, Mikey was able to once again catch himself. He had forced his knees and hands against each side of the tube. He let out a small cry as his injured hand and leg were full of shooting pain. "This may take longer than I thought."
