As much as I love the turtles, I don't own them. Thanks to Sapphire93, mav32, Kyaserin Marii, aronoiiel, Rose of Hope, and BubblyShell22 for your reviews. They're really encouraging. Anyway, enjoy the chapter!

Leonardo desperately hacked at the wall of debris with his katanas, tears falling down his cheeks. This couldn't be happening! All of his fears were coming to life in front of his very eyes. He had to find his brothers!

"Raph! Donny! Mikey!" he screamed. He paused for a moment, holding his chest and trying not to focus on the horrible pain. He paused, leaning closer to the rubble. Was that a voice on the other side?

The sound came again, "Leo… Mikey… here, Bro!"

Adrenaline suddenly shot through Leo's body. It was Mikey. He was alive! "Mikey, are you okay? Can you move? Mikey!"

Leo strained to hear his brother's voice, "…Fine, Leo. …Head… brick… Fine…" So Mikey was alright.

"I'm coming, Mikey! I'll be there as soon as I can." He started pulling at the larger debris before stopping and looking up at the large barrier. He had to be careful; one wrong move could bring the whole pile down on top of Mikey. He studied the wall for the best place to remove some of the rubble.

Donatello pulled some of the larger beams and bricks out of his way before squeezing through the hole he had created. He gasped out loud as his shins banged into a concrete block, sending pain shooting up and down his legs. He fell in a heap on the other side of the pile of debris, holding his shins and biting his lip. He looked at his legs as soon as the pain subsided and noticed a large, ugly bruise running up and down either of his shins. At least they weren't broken…

Donny looked around at his new surroundings. There was more debris on this side of the wall; larger chunks of the lab that hadn't been thrown to the back of the building covered the floor. Other piles of debris were scattered around the room.

His attention was drawn to one corner that was completely surrounded by rubble. It seemed to be moving; Don gasped as one pile began to fall over. He scrambled to his right, hoping to get out of the way in time. He barely made it before the five-foot-high pile of bricks and concrete collapsed to the floor. He looked back at the corner, breathing hard.

What he saw sent relief spreading through his whole body. "Raph!"

Raphael was surprised when the whole mound fell outward. That was a shell of a lot easier than I expected, he thought. Hopefully nobody's out there… As soon as the dust cleared Raph peered out of his corner, making sure none of his brothers had been trapped under the pile he'd just tipped.

"Raph!" Raphael's head snapped quickly to his left, recognizing his brother's voice immediately.

"Donny! I didn't hurt you, did I?" Raph rushed to the other turtle's side; Don was on his hands and knees in the middle of all the rubble.

"No, it's okay, Raph. I got of the way in time," Don reassured him. "Are you alright? Have you seen the others?"

"I'm fine, Don. Hurt my arm a little but I'll be alright. I 'aven't seen 'em; I was hoping you had." Raph looked anxiously at the wall of rubble separating them from the back of the lab. "Sure hope they're okay… Are you hurt?"

"Just a little. My legs are bruised, but they're not broken. I can't walk, but they'll be fine in a few days," Donny replied.

Raph was relieved beyond words to know that at least one of his brothers was alive. Now they just had to find Leo and Mikey. He walked toward the thin wall of debris, peering through a large hole. Don spoke from his place on the floor, "I came from back there. There was a thicker wall of rubble on the other side, and a smaller one right down the middle. I was hoping all three of you would be closer to the front, but I guess not… I sure hope they weren't trapped under all those bricks and stuff."

"Don, you stay here. I'll see if I can find anyone. I'll be back in a minute."

Mikey sat back holding his head, relaxing for the first time since waking up. Leo was coming… He jumped as something was pulled noisily from the wall behind him, stirring up more dust in the already hard-to-breathe air. Mikey coughed, hoping Leo wouldn't be much longer. Suddenly he felt a hand on his shoulder; and screamed like a little girl.

"Mikey, relax. It's me, Leo." Mikey craned his neck to see his oldest brother. Leo's voice sounded a little weak but very much alive. Leo walked around him and sat down in front of him. "Are you hurt? Are you okay?"

Mikey pointed at his head, saying, "My head feels like it did when I tried that new trick on my skateboard a few months ago, but other than that I'm fine." Leo frowned, looking concerned. "Chill out dude, it's just a headache."

"It may not be just a headache. Remember what happened last time?"

"Yeah, Donny said I had a percussion or something like that."

Leo looked confused for a moment before realization and amusement settled over his features. "I think you mean a concussion, Mike, and that's just what I'm afraid of. You've got to stay awake until we find Donny, okay?"

"Got it, Bro. I'm not sleepy anyway," Mikey said.

"That's a good sign, I think."

"What about you, Bro? You okay?" Mikey looked closely at his brother for the first time. He seemed to be breathing heavily, and it looked like he was in pain. Mikey gasped when his eyes fell on Leo's plastron. "Man, Leo. That looks awful. What happened, dude?"

Leo looked like he wished Mikey hadn't said anything but sighed and answered, "It's nothing, Michelangelo. I'm going to go look for Raph and Don. You stay here, and try not to go to sleep." Mikey opened his mouth to protest but stopped when he heard something off to his left, on the other side of one of the piles of wreckage.

"Leo! Mikey! You guys okay?" It was Raph!

Leo was by the wall in a second, shouting back. "Raphael, are you alright? Where's Donatello?"

"Leo, thank god! I'm fine, Don's at the front of the lab; he's okay too. We're both a little sore, but we're okay? Have you seen Mikey? Are you okay?"

Mikey jumped in at this point. "I'm here too, Raph. I hit my head and Leo's chest is messed up, but we should be okay too."

A few minutes later all four brothers were together again. After checking to make sure his brothers were okay and telling Don about his concerns for Mikey, Leo leaned against a pile of debris, holding his chest and thinking about everything they had just gone through.

He jumped slightly as a hand was placed on his arm. "You okay, Leo?" Raph asked. Leo looked up at his younger brother, tears in his eyes. "Man, Leo, what's wrong?"

"I thought—"Leo's voice cracked and he tried to force the emotion from his voice. "I thought I had lost you all. It was just like my dream, only it was real. I…" Leo's voice trailed off again.

In one of his rare sensitive moments, Raph pulled the distraught turtle into an embrace. "It's okay, Leo. We're together again. Everything's gonna be okay now." What Raphael didn't know was that their troubles had only just begun.

Okay, sorry about the cheesy ending, but I couldn't think of any other way to wrap up this chapter. I know I said I had big plans for this chapter, but actually those are gonna have to wait until next time. Anyway, I hope you liked it. Please review!
