The turtle who cried monster Chapter 4, Mona Lisa

A/N: Okay, there is a thing I would like to say before you read this chapter. I will introduce Mona Lisa to this story, cause I think I needed the character. To those who don't like that idea, I'm sorry, but I couldn't handle myself. But don't need to continue to read if you don't want to. I'm just warning you if you don't like my ideas. So now when that is out of the way, lets not waste more time and, enjoy my new chapter. Please review.


(Leos P.O.V)

For a moment I couldn't belive that those words had came out of my genius younger brother. I could expect that from Raph, but not from Donnie! I tried to see if that was just words coming out of Donnies mouth, but he did look like he meant every word. Then he turned around and walked away and jumped from this roof top and then to another. But I didn't see where he was going, cause I turned around and ran off myself. I didn't take a glance back. There was something wet on my cheek, which I could only guess was tears. First I just wiped them away, but after a while I just started to ignore them and let them fall. All of a sudden, I crashed into something. But it turned out to be someone, Raph to be exact. As soon as I crashed into him, he turned around and grabbed my arms and hold me tight, really tight.

"Hey, what gives?! Watch where you go..." He didn't continue from there as he recognised me and saw my tears at the same second. His grip loosened up a bit, but he didn't let go of me.

"Leo what's wrong? What has happened?" He said, at once sounding caring and took one of his hands to wipe away tears from my eyes. A gentle move, but quite useless, since new ones came almost immediatly. I opened my mouth to answer, but then I saw Mikey and April coming running from two other directions and Mikey started talking before I could.

"Haven't seen him anywhere. He has choosen a good..." He started to say, but April put a hand on his shoulder and pointing at me.

"Hey Leo, are you okay?" She asked and walked towards me. I took a breath and started to explain that I had met Donnie, that I tried to explain my actions and what he had said, that he wished that I wasn't his older brother. Raph and Mikey looked at each other and Raph let go of me. April stepped forward and put a hand on my shoulder.

"I'm sure he didn't mean that. He was just mad and said things he didn't mean. I mean, such things happen. Right?" She said and tried to smile a bit at me. Mikey nodded eagerly.

"Yeah, I know Donnie and I know that he would never say such things and actually mean them! He's too good for that! I'm sure he was just angry at you! That's all." I smiled at him and looked at Raph. He didn't say anything but looked at me, encouraging me to think the best of our brother. I took a deep breath and wiped away the last of my tears.

"Okay, come on guys! We have to find him before he gets into trouble." But barely had those words left my mouth before we heard a scream. It was a little faint but we all heard it anyway. And as soon as we heard the voice we knew who it was.

"Leo! Guys! Help!" All of us turned around and at roof top a bit away, we saw Dogpound, foot ninjas and in Dogpounds biggest hand, Donnie.

"I think that's to late Leo." Raph said.

"I can see that! Come on, we have to save him!" I screamed in panic and we all started running. I saw how Dogpound smacked my brother across the cheek and he fell unconcious in the giant dogs hand. Okay, that was it. I had let Shredder hurt my brother one time. I wasn't going to let that happen again.


(Mikeys P.O.V)

Okay, we where up against like 40 ninjas maybe more, a giant dog and they had our brother in their grasp. Things could be better. But hey, we where like the bestest ninjas in the city. What could possibly go wrong? No wait, why did I ask that? On Tv when people said that, it only meant it would go wrong. Really wrong. Okay, keep it cool Mikey. Just keep it cool.

"Okay guys. Just get Donnie and we are out of here. Everyone agreed on that?" We all nodded. Leo didn't look to convinced and looked at Raph with one raised eye brow.

"Raph? That means, no fighting. At least not more than necessary." Raph rolled his eyes, and looked really bored. He crossed his arms and looked at Leo, obviously irritated.

"I've got it 'Fearless.' Shall we do this, or are we going to let them get away. Leo rolled his eyes and looked at April.

"April, I think it would be best if you went home, or at least to the lair. This could get rough." April nodded and climbed down the fire escape and went down in the sewers, after looking around for people who could see her. After we saw that she was down in the sewers, we charged out from our hiding spoot.

"Alright Dogpound, you are going straight to the dog pound!" Leo said, hoping it would sound cool. But it didn't and Raph made that clear.

"Seriously Leo, just stop try to say those things. You're only embarassing yourself." He said and Leo lowerd his head. Dogpound only laughed and dropped Donnie to the ground. That seemed to wake him up, cause he shot up and pressed himself againt a wall and tried to make himself as small as possible. But for the moment Dogpound seemed to forget about him and just wanted to make sure we where defeated. While my brothers tried to hold back the ninjas and Dogpound, I made my way over to Donnie, who looked pretty beaten up and had a big bruise on his cheek. Must have been from the slap that Dogpound had given him. There was also some marks after those spikes on his hand. Anger started to boil in me, but I swallowed it. There where more important things to do now. I smacked my brother lightly on his arm trying to get his attention.

"Come on Donnie. Time to get out of here." I said soothing, trying not to startle him. He did jump a little, but calmed down when he saw me. I took him by the arm, pulling him to his feet. I waved to Leo, who looked at our direction. When he saw that we where both okay, he grabbed Raph and started running at us. When they passed us we started to run after them. But we had barely started to run, when Donnie let out a yelp. We all stopped and turned around. Dogpound had him again, this time around the ankle.

"You know, I've always wondered if turtles can fly, or bounce. Well you know what they say, 'you learn by doing.'" He said and held out his arm and let Donnie dangle over the sidewalk.

"Well, whats plan B Leo?" I asked my older brother as I stared at Donnie hanging over the sidewalk like a puppet. "What do we do now?"


(Raphs P.O.V)

As I waited for Leos orders I watched my brother dangle over the pavement. Leo was too slow. But just as I was about to race forward, but before I could, a blur of green and pink raced forward, so fast I could hardly see what it was, and kicked Dogpound so hard and quick that he by shock let go of Donnies ankle. Donnie let out a little scream of fright, but I raced over to him and grabbed his hand before he could fall into the ground.

"Gotcha." It was the only thing I could say. Then I pulled him up to get him to safety. And as soon as he was upon the roof, I turned around and saw a big green mutant with a long tail, fighting with the foot soldiers. I had never seen anyone fight like that. It wasn't like any martial arts I had ever seen. The mutant was using it's tail more than hands or feet. Whatever it was using for a fighting style, it worked cause the footninjas fleed with Dogpound in the lead, but before he left he turned around.

"This isn't over turtles! I'll get you and your monster for a brother, if that is the last thing I ever do!" Then he left and ran off. What we didn't notice was that he held a special kind of remote in his hand and his finger played over a certain button. Then we turned to the green mutant who had took out the footninjas for us. Now we got a picture of it and... Wow. It was a lizard. A girl lizard. She was emerald green and yellow and the stomach, chest and lower stomach. She had brown hair and held on it place in a ponytail, that was hold together with a pink hairband. She had a oblique bangs that covered one of her green eyes. Around the waist she had a belt with one sheath that held a big knife. Around the wrists she had brown bands. She had webbed fingers and along tail. She was... so beautiful.

"Hey, thanks for helping us back there!" Leo said gratefully. He smiled at her, but I couldn't not take my eyes of her. She was so very beautiful. Wait... what was I thinking?! Focus Raphael! Don't lose your edge. Don't... fall in love? No way! Not me! I mentally slapped myself and put my attitude back on.

"Yeah but, you know who are you?" I asked her a little ruder than I had intended. I didn't want her to think I was ungrateful. Wait, why do I care? Come on Raph, get a hold of yourself! She looked at us and watched us all one by one.

"Shh..." She said at last and put a finger over her lips.

"Follow me, and don't say a word." Then she jumped down from the roof to the closest manhole and removed the cover, then turned her at us and waved her hand in a gesture that said 'follow me.' We looked at each other, shrugged and followed her down into the sewers. Well down there she started to walk down into the deeper parts of the sewers. Parts we had never seen before. But we followed her anyway. This girl was very quiet at first, then she started to loosen up a bit.

"So, you are also enemys of the Shredder? Well that's not a surprise, he's got enemys everywhere." She said. We looked at each other and Leo, who seemed a bit unsure about her, didn't take much time to catch on.

"You seem to know who we are, but yet we don't know who you are. Can you at least tell us who we are. I mean, you did save us back there, but can we ask that of you?" He said a little catious. She stopped, making us stop so sudden we crashed into each others shells. She turned to us.

"My name is Mona Lisa. And I was human, until only a few months ago. I was one of the scientists that got kidnapped by some fellows called 'the Kraang.' They spilled some mutagen on me and it turned me into this! And ever sense I have tried to stop them. And when I heard that Shredder has one of them captive, I tried to get closer to hear their plans, they noticed me, and they are my enemies to now. Even though I'm not much of a master of fighting I have a major IQ. Which gives me a great advantage. I have lived in the sewers for seven months. That's my story." We all looked at each other. One of the scientifists? That Kraang kidnapped?

"A scientist? I mean, no offense, but you can't be much a teenager yourself. How can you work as a scientist?" Donnie asked curiously. Mona Lisa looked at him, first a little confused, then she seemed to understand.

"Oh, I got a science and math degree when I was only fourteen, cause I have always been superior in every subject in school ever since first grade. I moved up to ninth grade when I was ten. Where I lived before, I was known as 'Mona Lisa, the whiz kid.' News interviewed me when I graduated out of high school. You may have heard about that."

"Oh yeah, I've read about that! The wiz kid from Washington D.C!" Donnie exclaimed a bit amazed. Hm, looks like Donnie found a playmate.

"Yeah, that's me. Anyway, I was on my way to collage, when my grandmother here in New York got sick and I had to visit her. That's when I got into trouble with the Kraang. And the rest I've told you. What about you, what's your story?" She ended her story. We looked at each other and nodded. She had helped us, the least we could do was tell her. Leo looked at her and started.

"Well, fifteen years ago, a man called Hamato Yoshi walked into a pet shop bought four baby turtles. And he bumped into this man on the streets. He decided to follow, and the men had this mutagen with them. And it accidently hit Yoshi and the turtles. And it mutated the man into a big humaniod rat, and the turtles into... us."

"And Yoshi started training us in the art of Ninjitsu, the way of the ninja." Donnie continued. "And he named us after Renaissance artists. Leonardo, Raphael, Michealangelo and Donatello." As he spoke he gestured to each of us as said each name. "And it wasn't until we turned fifteen we where allowed to go up to the surface. And at the very beginning we got into trouble with the Kraang. And while after that, also with the Shredder. And we have fought with them for a few months. And that is mostly our story." He ended the story and looked at Mona Lisa to see her reaction. She nodded and didn't seem to surprised. I guess it's not easy to get surprised by mutants, when you are mutant yourself.

"Uh, not that I'm ungrateful or anything, but why did you save us?" I asked and then I, by some really stupid reason, I blushed in front of her. Why would do that? Especially right now? She didn't seem to notice, since she looked at Donnie. I felt something bubble up in me. I think it was... jealousy. Why should I be jealous of him? Donnie, of all turtles? I mean, no offense to him or anything, he had just been through a terrible transformation, had a big fight with Leo and was now chased by Shredder! It was not like I wanted to be in his shell!

"Well I could have left you for your fate, but have you ever heard the old saying 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend?' Besides, mutants stick together, right?" Mona Lisa said and smiled at us. Leo nodded.

"Right. Thank you." He smiled and was about to ask something, but all of a sudden Donnie leaned against the wall and groaned, like he was sick.

"Donnie! Are you alright?" Hm, good question Raph. Sure he was fine, he was just leaning against a sewer wall and groaning because he felt like it. I wanted to bite my own tounge of. Donnie looked at me and tried to smile a bit, but I could tell it wasn't easy.

"Yeah, I just got a little nauseous. I'll be fine." Donnie still leaned against the wall and tried to breath normally. Leo put a hand on his forehead and Donnie looked up at his hand. I saw that Leo was shocked and forced himself not to pull away his hand immediatly.

"Donnie, you're burning up! Maybe we should go back to the lair?" Donnie didn't look like he was to happy about the idea, but he decided not to make a fight of it and nodded. Mona Lisa, on the other hand didn't look to happy about it either.

"I would advise you not to do that. You see, when I spied on them I overheard some of their plans. And I heard them talk about mutated turtles, and I got interested. Then I heard most of it, when they saw me. And when I saw you tonight, I knew it was you! And when I saw you where in really bad trouble I decided to drop in and help. And I did hear that the cure they gave one of you has something called kromagnetsium, and that is trackable. If you go back to your home, they'll be able to find you. We need to get you to safety, follow me. We'll go to my home. It's a long way, but it's not easy to find it, even if they follow the tracker." With that she turned around and started to walk deeper into the sewers. We looked at each other and started to follow her. But Donnie tried to take out his bô, only to be reminded of that Leo had snapped it, and was grabbing air when he tried. He groaned and leaned his weight against the wall as he walked. Leo, Mikey and I exchanged looks and then looked at him. He looked back at us and tried again to smile. But I could tell that it was a strained smile.

"I'm fine guys, really. I just feel a little sick, that's all." He tried to reassure us that he was fine. But I knew from a look at his face that he wasn't. His eyes where not as excited and gentle as they used to be. And it might be a illusion, but I was sure that they looked a bit more red than they usually. And I don't mean red from sleeping bad or crying. I meant that the iris where more red than brown! But I tried to shake that thought. It was surely nothing. But Leo didn't seem like he wanted to let it go.

"You know, if you feel really sick, even if it's nothing, you have to tell, and where going back to the lair. Or at least resting. I'm still not sure about letting you out on these sort of things just yet." Donnie rolled his eyes and looked Leo in the eyes.

"Okay. I got it the first two hundered times you said that when this whole transformation thing was over." he said and then he kept going. Leo looked after him, and then followed. More wasn't said. Mona Lisa led the way, and we followed her like little chickens following their mom. What we didn't know was that trouble that Donnies fever was bringing.

(Shredder's P.O.V)


Bradford was kneeling in front of me and his head was lowered to the ground. If this more bad news, I was going to have a new wintercoat, made out of fur. Never mind whose.

"The turtle was out alone. We did have him, but the others arrived, trying to rescue him. We nearly had him, but that mutant lizard came into the scene and they all got away. But the good news is that the kromagnetsium has started to activate. We'll soon be able to track them down and destroy the turtles and Hamato Yoshi." He said and kept his head down. So, that lizard was a friend to the turtles. If she was then I could kill two birds with one stone! I would get rid of my enemy the lizard, and get rid of my nemesis Splinter and his pupils. Excellent.

"Track down the turtles. They'll probably head away from their lair, but find them and bring them to me! Both the turtles and the lizard woman. She might be usefull to my ever growing mutant army..." Bradford bowed and raised from his knees and left my room. This time the turtles where going to be mine!

A/N: Dun dun dun! So what now? When the Shredder can track Donatello, what will happen? And why is Donnie feeling sick? Is it a relapse? Why am I asking these questions? I know the answers, but you don't! You have to keep reading! And keep reviewing. I only have one this far, please give me more! I need to know what you think! *Cough cough* I'm sorry for that. I lost control, you don't have to review if you don't think it's good enough. Anyway, until next time. T.T.F.N. Ta-ta for now! ^_^
