Chapter 3 - Failure

(Mikey's POV)

We were sprinting across the rooftops, searching for the two teens we had lost. They had met up in the ally like they said but we soon lost them. It's like they just disappeared!

Leo was leading us across the rooftops, looking into every ally we passed. Donnie was in front of me and I could hear Raph grumbling behind me.

That's when I heard it. It was so faint that I barely heard it, "Alright you ugly P.D! We can do this the easy way or, more perferably, the hard and painful way."

"Bros wait!" I stopped so suddenly that Raph bumped into me from behind.

"Mikey!"

"I heard something. Follow me!" I took off in the other direction, not bothering to see if they were following.

As I got closer, the voices became clearer, "I suggest you go home child. You might get hurt."

'Purple Dragons!'

I ran faster and soon began to hear the sounds of fighting.

I heard a shriek and a cry, "Katrina!"

'Oh please don't let us be too late!'

I ran even faster. The blood roared in my ears and my heart pounded in my chest.

I reached the source of the voices and looked down into the ally.

I gasped at what I saw. The girl was leaned up agianst the dirty dumpster, unconscious, and the boy was fighting a Purple Dragon.

I felt my brothers reach my side as I continued to look down.

There was a strangled, gut wrenching scream as a knife was plunged deep in the boy's stomache.

It was time to intervene.

Leo gave the signal and we jumped into the ally as the boy collapsed.

"Booyakashaw!" I cried.

I jumped in front of the gang member and whirled my nunchuks dangerously.

"Leave them alone! Whaaaaa!" I dove in, hitting the guy continuously.

Leo was by my side as Raph and Donnie rushed to the injured teens.

"Why'd you attack them?" I questioned angrily.

"I didn't! They attacked me!" The teen growled.

Leo scoffed, "Yeah, like we'll believe that!" He gave another warning slash with his Katana.

I hit him again on his shoulder with my nunchucks and he stumbled back.

"Just ask them yourselves freaks! Don't intervene again!" The kid took off running, leaving his now bloody knife behind.

As he rounded the corner, I rushed over to Donnie.

"This kid is in really bad shape. We'll have to take him to the Lair." Donnie observed.

Leo nodded, "Let's take the girl too. She might have injuries and possibly a concussion."

Raph picked up the girl and Leo carefully took the boy. Donnie ran ahead to get the medical supplies while I stayed with Leo and Raph to cover them.

As we walked homes, I felt a twinge of worry about what the Purple Dragon had said. Some part of me knew he hadn't been lying. Why had the teens attacked the gang member?

(Katrina's POV)

It was dark.

For a moment I thought I was dead, but then I heard voices.

"When do you think she'll wake up Donnie?"

"I honestly don't know Leo. She was in bad shape, even the boy woke up first."

'So Ant's ok. This was all my fault!'

I heard some shuffling and felt a hand on my forehead. I shivered at the touch but kept my eyes closed. I didn't know where I was and I really didn't want to know.

I heard a gasp and the hand was yanked back.

"Leo did you see that?"

"Maybe she's waking up."

I tried to open my eyes but found it hard. I moaned and shifted my arm a bit.

I finally opened my eyes and looked around. I saw purple walls, a computer, and what looked like a science lab. My eyes flickered to my right and I saw something that I'd never forget. Before me were two giant mutant turtles!

I shrieked at the sight and they did too. I was scared and I bolted up, trying to stand on the floor. My knees wobbled and I fell to the floor. I tried to scramble away but when I saw the one with a purple mask coming closer, I put my hands up to my face and growled weakly.

"Who are you?" I hated how my voice cracked in fear but I put on a deviant face, "Where's Ant?"

"Calm down, we're not going to hurt you." The other one said.

I backed up near the door and looked around wildly.

Suddenly the door slid open and in walked another turtle!

"So I see she woke up, finally." He groumbled grouphly. I whimpered. This turtle seemed like he had a temper.

The purple one rolled his eyes, "What gave it away?" he said sarcastically.

"Oh I dunno, the screams." The grumpy turtle grumbled.

"W-who are you? Where's my friend?" I growled threateningly.

"Relax, your friend's fine. He woke up from a stab wound three hours ago." The turtle in red rolled his eyes and I growled at him.

"So you hurt my friend and keep me captive huh? What happened?! And why are freaks like you with the Purple Dragons?" I snarled.

"Oh, you wanna fight it out?" The red turtle got into my face and whipped out a pair of crazy looking forks, "Let's fight!"

We glared at each other and growled, "I don't think over sized forks are gonna help you shell face!"

"These aren't forks kid! They're Ninjustsu Sais!" He spat.

"Well then, who's the big tough turtle?" If looks could kill then this turtle would be dead by now.

"Raph!" The tutle wearing the blue mask snapped, "You're not helping!"

The turtle backed off and walked away, growling under his breath.

"I'm sorry, please excuse my brother. He has a bit of a temper." The blue turtle said.

I scoffed, crossing my arms, "Oh, I hadn't noticed."

"Ok, let's start over. My name is Leonardo, my brother hear, " He pointed towards the turtle by his side, "is Donatello. The one you just met is Raphael and my other brother is Michelangelo. You can call us Leo, Don or Donnie, Raph, and Mikey. And we didn't hurt your friend or work for the Purple Dragons. We saved you and your friend."

I glared at him, but then I saw truth in his eyes and my gaze softened, "What happened?" I asked.

"We over heard you and your friend talking about spying on the Purple Dragons so we followed you tonight. We found you unconscious and we saw your friend get stabbed in the stomache. Donnie hear saved your lives. You have been out since yesterday and so has your friend." Leo explained.

"Is he ok?" I questioned.

Donnie nodded, "He'll be fine, although I'm afraid he won't be able to move for a while which means he can't go home yet."

I looked at him, "Well, what's gonna happen to us now?" I asked.

"He'll have to stay here and if you want you can stay too." Leo said.

"Leo's right, there is no way he can leave right now. So what is your name?" Donnie asked, attempting to move closer to me again.

"My name's Katrina, but everyone calls me Kat. my friend's name is Antonio but I call him, Ant." I explained. I tried to stand up again but fell. Donnie rushed over to me and caught me.

"Thanks." I said.

"You have to be careful Kat, you had a mager concussion and you just woke up from a day coma!" Donnie said

"Ok, thanks Donnie." I showed my graditude with my eyes.

'Guess I'm stuck here.' I thought as Donnie helped me up, 'This is gonna be interesting.'

What'd ya think? Please reveiw! :)
