Hello sorry, this chapter was a bit late, I struggled to write it this week and have been pretty busy. Anyway, hope you enjoy it, here's chapter 7.
Chapter 7: Help
Mikey's POV
I was dragged out the room by Leader, and as soon as we had exited, the door slammed shut behind us.
Leader pushed me onto my front and turned my head to look at him. What I saw terrified me; Leader had a knife above his head, which was now racing towards me. I let out an ear-splitting scream, closed my eyes and waited for the pain. It never came. Instead, I felt the rope around my hands loosen; I could use them again.
"Get up." Leader ordered. I stood up and cautiously watched Leader.
"Why are you helping me?" I asked, still eyeing Leader.
"You may have killed Peter's brother, but you didn't do it on purpose. He also told me this was an investigation, not a torture." Leader explained.
"Um … Okay. So what do we do now?" I asked.
"I have a plan to get you and your brothers out of this place." Leader replied quietly.
"But what about Peter. What will he do if he finds out you've helped us?" I said.
"Don't worry about me. You need to leave … now." Leader answered.

Leo's POV
The screaming just stopped. What happened? Is Mikey alright? What is Peter going to do now? I began to fight against the guards, I needed to get to that door. Once I get through there, I'll be able to see if Mikey's alright.
The lights suddenly turned off.
It was pitch black and I took that to my advantage. I attacked the guard in front of me, by kicking him, causing the man to stumble to the ground. I then punched him in the face; knocking him out.
I raced towards the door and watched as the light glowing through the edges of the door frame grew and grew until I was right in front of it.
The door slammed open and I rushed through; my eyes scanning for any clue linked to what happened to Mikey. My brothers came out seconds after I did.
He wasn't there; what I did see though, was Leader standing in front of us with a smug look on his face.
Raph ran forward and pinned Leader to the wall.
"Where's my brother, you son of a-!" Raph shouted.
"Stop!" Leader ordered. "Your brother is fine. I released him and right now he is proceeding with the plan."
"Why are you helping us?" I asked.
"Because … I'll explain later." Leader replied.
"Wait … what plan?" Donnie said.
"Your brother is going to face Peter." Leader answered.

Mikey's POV
After Leader told me about the plan, I climbed into an air vent and started to crawl towards my destination.
I can't wait to give that guy a beat down for what he's done to me and my brothers. This way I can be useful. One problem though … I didn't know where Peter is. Maybe if I just keep going, I'll eventually find him.
"What happened?!" Speaking of which, I think I just found him.
I kicked open the trap door beneath me and jumped down into the centre of the room Peter was positioned in. although I made quite a loud entrance, it looked as though he didn't notice me. He didn't even turn around.
"Michelangelo." His sinister voice greeted. "I see Leader betrayed me, the fool."
"Peter! Why are you doing this?!" I shouted, he finally turned around.
"I already told your brothers this, but I'll repeat it." Peter replied. "Do you remember Matthew James?" Then something in my brain clicked.
"He's your brother, yes?" I answered. "And by the looks of it, he was younger than you. Which explains why you go for me more than my brothers, I'm younger. And also, when you interrogated me on our first day, you ended the conversation as soon as you found out I was the youngest. You want revenge because we killed your younger brother."
Peter looked stunned for a moment before he recovered. "So that's your talent, you're very observant. And for the record." Peter clicked his fingers and suddenly, I was grabbed from behind. "You killed my brother." I felt something cold placed on the back of my head.
Peter stood in front of me, grabbed my broken arm and yanked it forwards. I shouted out in pain. "You should be punished for your disobedience." Peter stated.
The door slammed open, and my brothers barged inside. Peter was distracted; I used that to my advantage and kicked him in the stomach, knocking him backwards. The guards had loosened their grips enough for me to pull forwards against them, I broke free.
I turned around, kicked one guard in the chest, causing him to smash into the wall. One down. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the second guard charge towards me. Just as he was about to land a blow, I grabbed his arm and used it to flip him over my head and into the ground.
"Booyakasha!" I shouted. Suddenly, this sharp noise started blaring through my ears and I began to feel woozy; I fell to the ground.

Leo's POV
We banged open the door and charged our way in. Leader decided not to come with us, but instead, find an escape root for us. Donnie and Raph took the guards and I took Peter.
I ran forward and started to wrestle with Peter.
"Peter, if you would just let us go, we'll leave you alone!" I shouted.
"Now why would I do that?!" Peter answered. "If someone killed Michelangelo and you found the murderer! Would you just let them go?!"
"…"
"Exactly." Peter said.
"Well, we wouldn't allow Mikey to be killed in the first place!" I countered. Peter growled and tripped me up. I fell to the ground, facing upwards, and Peter put his foot upon my plastron. He then pulled out a gun and pointed it to my head. Peter was about to pull the trigger when Raph charged into him and knocking our captor to the ground. Just as Raph was about to knock him out, Peter pulled out a remote and said: "Just you wait." He pushed the button just before Raph knocked him out.
I can't help thinking about what Peter said, though. Wait for what, was something big going to happen. What's going to happen?
The whole time throughout this, Donnie has been trying to hack into Peter's computer so he could see a plan of the building and calculate an escape route, just in case Leader wasn't able to make one. But as of now, he was running towards us.
"Guys! We have a problem!" Donnie shouted.
"What?! What is it?" I asked. Donnie had a look of fear on his face.
"It's Mikey." He stated, then turned around and pointed to the snarling figure on the floor.
His eyes were ice blue again and the black slits cut through the middle of ocean blue. He had fangs once again and he looked as though he was sad.
His sad look soon turned into one of fear. He growled and began to run towards us. Mikey pounced, and me and my brothers were able to dodge just in time. When Mikey landed, he turned towards us and I expected for him to attack, but instead I saw glistening, wet eyes and a few tears running down his cheeks. His face showed a look of sadness, as he turned away from us and bolted through the doorway. He was gone.
I stood in shock for a few seconds and my eyes wouldn't move from the spot where I last saw Mikey crying. I couldn't hear anything either and all that mattered was that one spot I kept looking at. What was going on? Was Mikey half in control or something? We need to go find him. But what'll happen once we do? Will he run away from us or attack? My thoughts were interrupted, when I noticed Donnie stood in front of me, shouting. My senses zoned back in and I understood what he was saying.
"Leo! Leo, what's wrong?!" Donnie asked. "We need to go! Leo!"
"We need to find Mikey." I stated.
"That's what we've been saying the whole time Fearless!" Raph shouted.
"And I'm sorry I didn't realise, but we can argue about this later. We need to move now." I answered.
