Spirits, Machines and other things
Chapter 4
The turtles had been in the dojo for 5 days and tempers were wearing thin, they all worried about each other and if they were going to get out of it alive, they were especially worried when it came to food because every time they ran out of food Mikey would have to risk his life to get some by running out of the dojo in to the livingroom full of killer machines and fight them off until he got into the kitchen which was where he would have to stay out-of-the-way of the electronic kitchen utensils, and each time he went out he always came back with some sort of injury. His brothers hated making him go out for it but he was the fastest and most agile out of the four, they knew that if anyone else did it that they would come back a lot more injured and with a lot less food. Mikey was in the kitchen just now, and his brothers were pacing around the dojo. Mikey was taking a lot longer than usual,
'Where is that shell-fer-brains?' Raph kept mumbling every time he looked up at the door,
'Do you think we should go out after him?' Donnie asked worriedly, he didn't want to fight those machines. The last machine they had to fight was a Battle-bot and Donnie had got electrocuted in the process of stopping it.
'No, not just now we'll give him a few minutes' Leo replied as he stopped pacing to look at his two remaining brothers, they could see the worry in his eyes, But just then Mikey came running in while holding his side and panting,
'H-hey guys' He gasped in pain, they could see blood running down between his fingers,
'Mikey what happened?' Donnie asked as he sat his brother down and prized his fingers off the wound, he grimaced at the sight,
'One of the robots followed me into t-the kitchen, i didn't notice it until it had grabbed the knife and stuck it into me' Mikey closed his eyes and grit his teeth to keep from screaming out in pain as Donnie cleaned his wound, He threw his head back and let out a pained grunt as Leo and Raph put a hand on each shoulder,
'How many robots do you have?' Raph said angrily at Donnie,
'I don't know...em...about...50?' Donnie replied as he wrapped Mikey's side up in bandages,
'50? THAT'S SO IRRESPONSIBLE! Leo shouted angrily at Donnie who gave him a dirty look,
'WELL I DIDN'T KNOW THAT MASTER SPLINTER WAS GOING TO USE THEM AGAINST US!' Donnie shouted back,
'THAT WASN' MASTER SPLINTER!' Raph shouted at Donnie,
'WHO RE YOU KIDDING RAPH OF COURSE THAT WAS MASTER SPLINTER!' Donnie shouted as he felt tears fill his eyes,
'AND WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THAT IT WAS HIM?' Raph was seriously angry,
'BECAUSE OF WHAT HE SAID!' the tears were threatening to spill, 'It was all true, he really did hate me all because I didn't want to do ninjitsu..' Donnie said quietly as he sat down and closed his eyes to stop the tears from flowing,
'Master Splinter was proud of you Donnie and you know it' Leo said softly, Donnie said nothing.
'Don' Raph said to him as he kneeled in front of him, Donnie let out a sad sigh, opened his eyes and looked up at Raph who immediately froze, he knew Mikey looked cute and innocent when he had tears in his eyes, but Donnie's was almost as cute, Raph stared into Donnie's soft brown eyes. Leo looked into them too, He thought they looked a lot like Mikey's puppy-dog eyes. Raph sighed,
'Come on Donnie cheer up, i know that Splinter would never say something like that to ya. and you must know it too' Raph said softly,
'Raphs right Don,' Leo said as he turned round to see Mikey at the dojo's door, it had just occurred to him how quiet he was being,
'What's up Mike?' Leo asked with a frown, Raph and Donnie looked over at their younger brother,
'The machines have just... died' Mikey replied, he was confused as he watched the machines lying still and smoke pouring out of them, The other three crept up to the door and they all looked at the what seemed to be dead machines and they walked out of the dojo to take a look around,
'Are they really... dead?' Leo asked, He, Raph and Mikey prefered to not go near them till they where sure, but to Leo's dismay, Donnie crouched down next to one of the Machines, that appeared to be a robot dog and put his hand on it,
'Donnie don't touch them, don't even go near them, they could still be dangerous, come over here!' Leo said sternly as he watched Donnie check the robot over,
'Donnie i'm not sure if it's a good idea to go near them' Mikey said nervously,
'Don get yer butt over here!' Raph said angrily, he was hiding the worry in his voice, Donnie rolled his eyes and stood up but just as he did the little metal dog let out a whine, Donnie looked at it, he couldn't remember even building a robo-dog, never mind making it able to whine. Donnie started to back away from the dog, he knew something wasn't right. The dogs eyes started to flash red and it jumped up,
'DON!' His brothers shouted but he didn't care, The dog wasn't a threat, and he knew it. So much to his brothers dismay he walked towards it,
'DONNIE WHAT ARE YA DOIN' Raph shouted at his brother, Donnie kneeled in front of the dog and stroked its head,
'Calm down' Donnie said over his shoulder, and the dog collapsed and moved no more, Donnie looked down sadly at the dog. He felt the air go cold and so did his brothers, he quickly moved towards them but when he was almost there a pile of smoke started to form in front of him and he found his path blocked by none other than Master Splinter,
'Hello my son' He said teasingly and the next thing Donnie knew he was flying through the air, He hit his shoulder against the wall and his shoulder let out a horrible crack as it was knocked out of place, Donnie yelled in pain as he clutched his dislocated shoulder, He could hear his brothers shouting his name but he was in too much pain to care. He looked up to see master Splinter walking towards him,
'You shall soon feel your pain no more Donatello' Splinter said happily as a sword appeared in his hand, he held it up ready for the kill.
