Leo's Pov
As I was meditating in the dojo I could hear talking in the other room. 'Don probably got a hold of April. Good. I hope everything is alright. What am I talking about of course it is, I mean, Don did get a hold of her.' I continued to meditate. My mind went back to a couple nights ago when my bros and I were standing on the roof looking out at the city. The wind was crisp and the air was sweet with the smell caramel apples and cider. I looked up at the stars, and that's when I saw it… or at least, I saw something. It flew through the dark sky almost right above us. I was on high alert, but the thing never made a move towards us. I didn't want the others to know because most likely Mikey would have screamed, Donnie would have been trying to calm Mike down, and Raph… well Raph would have wanted to rip it apart, whatever it was. So I remained quite and watched it as it glided in circles. I started to get the feeling that the 'bird?' was starring at us. As I was about to say something to the guys it flew off with a screech! It alerted everyone in the city of its presence.
I heard a knock at the door, then it slide open. "Leo?" I opened my eyes to look at Don who seemed pretty relieved. "You got a hold of April and Casey?" Don smiled a little bit, "Yeah, I got a hold of April; Raph is on his shell cell talking with Casey right now. But umm… I'm still a little bit nervous Leo, so I was thinking that if we can't go topside maybe we could travel to April's through the underground tunnel?" Don stared at me with pleading eyes.
I opened my mouth to tell him why we could but then I thought about it 'Then again, we would be traveling underground, so we wouldn't really be putting ourselves into harms way.' I looked back at Don, "Ok Don. We can go." Don smiled and relaxed his tense shoulders. "Thanks Leo!" Don ran out of the room to tell the others and to grab his duffle bag… of course. I smiled, "This will be a quick little check-in on our friends and nothing more." Little did I know what was to happen to us when we got there.
I came out of the dojo half expecting to see Raph with a triumphant look on his face, but all I saw was Donnie and Mikey talking and Raph just stood there next to them. It looked like he was in deep thought. I was gonna say something to him but… I decided to let it slide for now; right now we need to check on April and Casey and get back ASAP. So without a word I opened the door and started heading down the tunnel with my bros right behind me. It only took us 20mins to get to April's place. We entered into the basement and then climbed the stairway. I opened the door and we walked in and started looking around for April. "Hey April! Guess whooo! It's your friendly neighborhood turtles!" Mikey said rather loudly. I didn't mind though, at least he got back his 'funny' self again. "Heehee. I am in the kitchen guys." The others started walking towards the kitchen. I, on the other hand, stood perfectly still. I got the funny feeling that we were being watched… but how could someone be watching us? All the shades and curtains were closed around the window… the door is locked and April doesn't have any cameras around the house. Maybe I am still a little jumpy from the footage.
Just as I turned around to head in the direction of the kitchen there was a loud crash behind me. I quickly ducked and just in time to, it was an inch away from taking my head off. I jumped to my feet and went to draw my katana's out when, in a flash, I was pinned up against the wall with my arms over my head. I felt rather dizzy, but I tried to focus on what was in front of me. It was rather blurry but I could tell that the creature had long sharp fangs! It had sickly yellowed colored eyes, which seemed to stare into my very soul. My mind began to clear; I did a quick kick to the creature's abdomen. It let go of my arms and I was able to grab my katana's in time for the second attack. The creature lunged at me so fast that I barely had any time to react.
I used my katana's to block the attack, and I found myself again with my back to the wall trying to hold off the animal. I heard something come in to the room and behind the creature I saw my brothers who had probably just entered the room with April right behind them. "Guys, get April out of here." I grunted as I tried to keep the thing from biting me. Raph lunged towards the creature with no hesitation, but the creature looked like he was expecting it. With lightning speed it turned around and slashed at Raph's chest with one of its claws and with the other it grabbed Raph and threw him to the other side of the room.
"Raph!" I took the chance that I had and sliced at the creature but it was too fast, in a split second it was already on the other side of the room. It was lighter on that side of the room so I was able to make out what it was. It looked like a bat, I really big bat. It lashed out at Donny and Mikey who did their best to try and avoid its sharp claws.
I quickly joined the fight, at side kicked the creature in the head. It must not have been expecting me to get back into the fight so soon, because when it turned around to face me it looked rather irritated. It lunged at me once again, I side stepped out of the way and lashed out at it with my sword. The creature screamed in pain as my sword had sliced into its side. I turned around quickly to face me, with its back to the wall where I was earlier.
Donnie stood behind me along with Mikey, both had their weapons drawn. "Donny, check on Raph." I could feel Donnie looking at me, "Ok, Leo." I heard him run over to the wall behind us where Raph had fallen. I kept my eyes locked on the bat as he looked between me and Mikey.
It locked eyes with me; it opened its mouth as if he was going to speak to us, but quickly closed it. I wasn't sure what to do exactly since it didn't seem like it was going to move, but I have to get it out of here. If this is the same creature that killed those policemen it could do the same to us and we have to stop it before anything else happens. It then spoke to us, "If you think you can take me down, you have another thing coming." It spoke with a rather gruff voice.
He was getting a little cocky now, 'good,' I thought 'the cockier he is, the more likely he will mess up and be sloppy.'
"What is it that you want?" He was slouching in front of the window, but I don't believe he has any intention on leaving just yet.
"If you were smarter you would have figured it out by now, but I guess I shouldn't have expected much from you turtles." Why does this creature look so familiar? I feel like I have seen it somewhere before, but where?
I then felt something rush right passed me and for a second I thought the bat creature was attacking again, but then I saw that it was Raph charging at it. "Uh, yeah, I think he is ok Leo." I heard Donnie say as he came and stood beside me. Raph charged at the thing with so much fury. "Ya gonna pay for dat!" Raph swung his fist at the bat, but the creature easily dodged it.
Mikey and Don immediately joined Raph in fighting of the intruder. I jumped into the fight as well; we all were throwing kicks and punches at it, but it just kept dodging every attack we threw at him.
Mikey yelped as the thing grabbed Mike's nun chuck and tossed him at Don, who moved out of the way just in time so as not too get knocked over by Mike. The bat then lunged at Donnie; Don was not fast, but he is smart and he must have anticipated that the thing would come towards him.
Don did a quick front flip over the thing and twisted up in the air so that he would land facing the back of the creature. He then quickly ducked as Raph charged at the creature shoving it out the window. The bat-like-creature screeched as it crashed threw the window and tumbled down to the ground, but just before it hit the ground it twisted around so it was facing the ground, then spread out its wings and flapped just once which stopped its fall.
It flew up past the window where we all stood shocked. It stared down at us with a smug look on its face; it hovered there, like it was waiting for something. "Uh, guys," I kept my eyes on the creature as Mike continued to talk, "What's that sound?" At first I didn't even know what he was talking about, and then I heard it. Beep… beep… beep.
My eyes shot open and my heart started racing, I looked down and right below our feet, on the side of the building, was a sphere-like contraption, my hunch was correct. It was a bomb!
"JUMP!" The guys and I were about to jump out the window when the bomb made one… last… BEEP!
