(A/N: I need a break, so I am updating this story. The other one still has tons of planning, and this one is all planned out. This is my break to type something that is already written out! Sweet! Did you hear about the new Three Days Grace album? I am so excited about it! Reviews for chapter 6 so far: HatexLovexo and payton01. Glad I have loyal followers. Yay!)
"No…" Splinter whispered. He failed the child twice too many… Now the child could be lost to them. He knew what the Tormenter was capable of, and Leonardo couldn't stand a chance… His parents failed, and they had powers. Leonardo doesn't even have powers.
"Then we have to get him back." Don spoke up. Everyone was pretty surprised; he wasn't much of a talker. Or a planner. It was usually just impromptu with him and the brothers, for Splinter was the planner of the family. "He probably took Chan to Ankoku Machi… Right?" The others nodded. "They expect us to go and get him right away… But what if we don't?"
"Wait, what?" Mike asked, confused.
"We wait a slightly longer amount of time. Let the Tormenter think we give up… But then…" Don was cut off.
"We ambush them. Donnie, that's a great idea!" Raph finished. Don smiled in accomplishment. Splinter thought hard about it.
"But what if he is injured seriously? How will we be of assistance?" He asked.
"The Chikara Machi army is a bit larger than the Ankoku Machi army. We can maybe have someone sidetrack and help him. Like possibly bring the medic along to be our sidetracker?" Mike brought up. Splinter knew dark magic, which those in Ankoku Machi have mastered, is much stronger than any magic in Chikara Machi. But if they didn't go Leonardo could die.
"Of course, Den." He replied, just before Raphael led him into Leonardo's room to look at more Kanji.
In a Ankoku Machi Jail Cell…
Leonardo opened his eyes slowly and had a massive headache. He looked around and saw darkness and stone. One small bulb lit the area dimly, and he searched the room even more. He finally spotted a figure laid on the cold ground. He was about to wake them, when the person shot up and looked at him. It was a young girl, the same species as him.
"Oh… I thought you were… One of t-them…" She apologized.
"I'm not…" He whispered. She looked him up and down, confused. Leonardo noticed she looked the same age as him.
"Who are you?" She asked.
"I am not answering that until you tell me who you are…" He replied.
"My name is Leena."
"Wow, that was my mom's name…" Leonardo informed her. Leena nodded.
"Mine too. So, now, what is your name?" She questioned him.
"Leonardo." He answered. Her eyes widened a bit.
"Leonardo… Hamato?" She asked. Leonardo nodded.
"Yes… Why? Are you going to go all formal on me like everyone else does?"
"Of course not… Why I am asking is…" She was cut off by the cell door opening. Their heads snapped in the direction of the noise.
"I see you have aquainted yourselves with each other. Very well. Leonardo, come…" The Tormenter ordered. Leonardo stayed put. "Come!" He ordered again. Leonardo once again stayed put. The Tormenter looked to one of his followers. The one he looked to smirked and walked up to the child. Leonardo could only feel his cheek slice open and his head get hit again before he was unconscious again.
Back with Splinter and the others…
"I do not understand…" Splinter started. Raph looked confused.
"Can you not read it?" He asked.
"I can read it, but what it says doesn't make sense…" Splinter said.
"Well, what does it say?" Raph asked.
"It says 'You have tried, you have failed… From now on it is I he will hail. I have them both, they are mine… If you want him or the other you will die.'" Splinter read the longer poem-like writing.
"Both? Him or the other? He has someone else?" Raph asked. Splinter scratched at his chin, thinking.
"I believe so. And I think I know who…" Splinter said. Raph looked on, interested.
Back at the Jail Cell…
"Shh… Calm down, Leo… It hurts, but I am trying to heal it…" Leena tried to calm him down. His injuries were worse than hers were after her first session all that time ago. Leena had healing magic, and was healing the cuts and welts on his arms and legs. She realized her power was not strong enough to heal anything else. They sat back, and talked for a bit.
"So you were injected with healing magic? I didn't know they could do that." Leonardo stated. She nodded.
"Yes, I was. And there are a lot of things you don't know…" Leena said.
"Oh really? Like what?" He asked. She sighed and looked him in the eyes.
"Leo… Um… How do I say this?" She sighed again. "Leena Hamato had twins and gave away one to her brother when they were born… Leo… I am your sister…"
With Splinter and Raphael…
"Wait, so Chan has a twin sister?" Raph asked. He could not believe it. So many secrets were being revealed…
"Yes, that is true. Lenora Saki conceived twins with Keiji Hamato, and they eloped. One a girl and the other…"
"Chan…" Raph finished. Splinter nodded.
"This calls for a more urgent plan… He now has both of the ultimate warriors, this is more dangerous…" Splinter said. Raph was confused.
"But I thought we weren't going to call Chan by that… Because he has no powers?" Raph asked. Splinter let out a laugh, and Raph's confusion doubled.
"There is a lot you do not know, Seika…" Splinter said, walking from the room.
Even more secrets were being revealed, and Raphael wasn't sure if he liked it or not…
