Chapter 9
Donnie's POV
I was walking around the gardens on the castle grounds reflecting on how the past several months of my life has been. First off I have assisted in the saving of two near death experiences. I found out I had a brother who is rambunctious and as foul mouthed as they come. Then right after finding him and forming my first brotherly bond with anyone he leaves promising to come back only to disappear off the face of the earth. Then after helping Dr. Rockwell save the crown prince's ward named Leonardo I grow close to him and meet the girl I might just love. Then right when I was finally getting accustom to not knowing where Raphael was the crown prince turns on his people and tries to bring his ward to the side of Shredder. Which ended up me being held at knife point and Raphael saving me along with the people form Shredders kingdom. Yeah my life has turned upside down.
I let out a strong sigh which catches the attention of one of the many wild animals roaming the garden. I bent down to try and touch the wild animal and found out what I startled was an adorable baby bunny. I slowly started reaching out towards the small animal. Suddenly I felt arms wrap around my neck and a warm body pressed against my back.
"Aww come here little bunny I wanna pet you." A childlike voice said from behind me. I jumped fast a twirled. The person was defiantly shorter then me because I felt the pull of his arms on my neck before it disappeared. When I finally took notice of my surroundings I saw the ward of none other than the Shredder finishing out his flip off my back.
"Wha…?" I half stuttered before I took notice of my brother Raphael or now known as Raph and Leo running in my general direction.
"What happened!" they both said at the same time. They wore the same worried and protective look in their eyes. But Raph tries to hide it like an idiot.
"Hey Mikey, bro what's up?" Spike no wait Slash said from behind me. I jumped and was behind Raph in seconds.
"How does he do that?" I asked Raph looking at Slash like he had the plague.
"Dude come on he aint nothin bad. He has always been doin that shi… stuff." Raph responded while rolling his eye at my weary look I am constantly casting as his new friend. Leo walked into the middle of the circle we were unconsciously forming and looked at Shredders ward hard.
"What are you doing here?" Leo asked with a hard look in his light brown eyes.
"He has come to see his friend along with my brother. If you find that unacceptable we will leave immediately." A deep voice boomed from behind me. I turned to see a tall menacing looking guy behind me. I let out a small scream at the shock and threatening aura that surrounded him and ran to the closest person to hide behind. That person just so happened to be the Shredders kid. I stood up and was about to walk away from the kid when he reached out and grabbed my wrist.
"I am sorry I scared you earlier. It was mean of me. Are you ok though? You must have been really shaken up with the thing that happened a few weeks ago?" he asked before he let go of my wrist and showed me a childlike smile. My jaw almost hit the floor. What is this kid?
"I am sorry Leatherhead but I do not think I asked you what you were doing here I asked your master." Leo snapped at the tall fearsome villainous looking guy. Raph looked like he was getting upset. Then again I think everything Leo does makes him mad. They can't stop fighting.
"Hey guys!" I heard a loud voice scream in our direction. I looked over to see Casey and April walking towards us. What were they doing together? They reached us quickly and April went straight to Shredders ward.
"Hello Mikey. It has been a long while since the last time we have meet. How is my brother doing over in your kingdom?" April asked looking at the child like she had known him her entire life. A dark shadow covered the happy go lucky child but it was gone just as quickly it covered him. What was the cause of the darkness?
"It really has been a while hasn't it. I am sorry to inform you but I have nothing to do the affairs of your brother. I wish I could tell you more but all I know is that he is there." He was forcing himself. Why? What was he covering up? His smile is fake. Why hasn't anyone else realize this? The tall guy that Leo called Leatherhead walked forward and pulled the ward I now knew as Mikey away from April. About time he did something other than scare me?
"I think this was a poor idea my friend. We shall be on our way. Thank you kindly for keeping us and showing such kindness." Leatherhead said as he pulled Mikey away from everyone and towards the gate.
"Bye Raphie, Leo, April, Casey, Donnie, Slash, King Splinter." Mikey waved back at everyone from the top of Leatherheads shoulders.
"Good bye child have a safe journey home." We heard someone say from behind Raph. We all jump and turn to see none other than King Splinter.
"Come on dude. You have got to knock or something. Don't just stand there. Creepy." Raph said and he placed one of his large hands on his chest to cover his heart. I let out a small laugh. I turned back to the fleeting forms.
"Come back again! Next time we might just catch the bunny!" I yelled at the kid. I could see his warm genuine smile all the way from here. Man his smiles are contagious.
"Something bad has happened to that child." King Splinter said once I turned around and joined my group of friends.
"What makes you say that master?" Leo asked looking at his king in confusion.
"The darkness that surrounds him has thickened and is draining the life out of him. Did not a one of you notice that darkness that shrouded his normally happy attitude?"
"I did. I was wondering what was wrong with him but I felt like it wasn't my place to ask. Raph do you know anything?" I asked as I stepped forward.
"I can't really think of anythin that would make that kid upset. Shredder and his daughter Karai are very nice to him and he is just another part of the family to him. If what I heard was correct then even though Mikey isn't a blood son of Shredder he is still the heir to the throne. Slash what all do you know about the kid?" Raph walked over to Slash and asked him his final question.
"Everything. When he was just a baby his parents hurled him towards a house wall. If it wasn't for Shredder walking by and noticing the kid coming his direction Mikey would have died. He has always been really sickly. That is why Leatherhead never leaves his side. My brother is a doctor. After Shredder named him his heir Mikey was attacked a lot. I was taken off of the front line to come and protect Mikey alongside my brother. His fear of Tiger claw is a very rational fear, because Tigerclaw was a hired assassin sent to kill Mikey around 7 years back. Mikey was 5 years old. And right when it finally seemed like all the assassination attempts had ended. We went out into the gardens so Mikey could get some much needed fresh air. Not long after we made it outside we received word form one of the message solders that Shredder needed to see Leatherhead as soon as he was available. I sent him off telling him that I could watch a 5 year old brat for a few hours. Not long after my brother was gone we got word from a different massager that I was needed by Shredder. I thought something bad happened to my brother. In my confused hysteria I ran off leaving Mikey alone in the gardens. Though the kid has always been fast so he caught up to me quickly once he found out that I was missing.
We reached the heavy door that separated the king form the real world and I knocked which caused an echo to form. Shredder told me to come in and so I did with Mikey right on my heels. I told him I got word from someone that I was needed. Come to find out he had just dismissed my brother for the same thing. He didn't call us. Shredder wanted to know what was going on so he sent his son to his room because he wanted to talk to me alone. Mikey the always silly kid ran up and said good night to his father before disappearing. After I told my story to Shredder I left and went to go see my brother and Mikey. But Mikey wasn't in the room. He wasn't in the castle. Someone had him and no one had seen him since he was last seen with us. My brother and I went mad looking for him. Shredder and Karai could barely breath it seemed. The air was too heavy without him there. Some unknown source told us that they saw a person dragging a body through the heavy woods to the east side of the castle. Leatherhead and I started to investigate the area. We found many trails that someone took time to try and cover up. The trails lead us to an abandoned bear cave. Without even blinking an eye Leatherhead and I surged forward looking for any signs of humanity. To our surprise we found two sleeping forms one belonging to the 5 year old crown prince the other was the crown prince of our enemy neighboring kingdom. I got Leatherhead to check Chris out to see what kind of injuries he suffered. After a thro search he found none. I sent him to go check on Mikey while I woke Chris up and got him out of there before the person who cause the mayhem came back. As I was reaching out to Chris Leatherhead stopped my hand and handed a beaten Mikey to me. He was covered in blood. His own blood. His nose was broken. His jaw was dislocated. His arm was broken to the point the bone was sticking out. Both of his legs were the same way. I thought he was dead. I couldn't feel his heart beat. He was just so cold. Leatherhead was the doctor though and he told me that if we don't hurry then Mikey really would die. I handed Leatherhead our charge and waited for him to leave before I woke up Chris. He jumped up and looked around the room and pin pointed the area that Mikey was laying there dying before he let a few curse words flow. I knew everything then and there. I slammed him against the cave walls. Asked him everything I could in the short amount of time I had. He was ordered to kill Mikey and he enjoyed everything he did Mikey. He wanted to do it he said. I beat him until my tears finally stopped and then I joined my brother at the doctor's office. After about 3 years he was finally let back out of the castle walls and was able to move his legs freely. He also learned how to fight. His father taught me everything he knows. Which Mikey was teaching Raph while he was there? Mikey wanted to learn to fight so that he could defend himself if anything like this ever happened again. He also hates the thought that someone could do something like that to anyone and get away with it. If you ever see him in swimming gear you can still see the scars form that time." Slash finished telling us his memories with tears clouding his eyes. Everyone was silent as we thought about what that poor little kid has gone through. How can he smile like that after everything? I looked over at my brother who was standing beside Slash like it was nothing. I knew he was staying there to be a support for him. King Splinter was looking at the ground with a solemn face covering him normal calm one. April moved beside me and was hugging my arm tightly. Casey was kicking dirt and Leo looked like he was ready to kill.
"Excuse me." all but Raph and Slash said as we walked in different directions. Next time I see that kid I will do whatever he wants. Anything to see his genuine smile flashing back at me.

Leo's POV
Next Day...
"Leo!" I heard a childlike voice scream at me as I felt a hard body slam into me. I looked down at the kid to find Mikey staring back at me.
"Hey kid what are you doing here?" I asked as I rubbed his head. He smiled up at me as he hugged me tighter. I don't really understand it but something just feels right with him here.
"I came to play. Will you play with me Leo?" Mikey asked looking up at me form his new found spot on my side. I sighed loudly thinking about everything that I have to do today.
"I am so sorry Mikey but I have to meditate right now and I have a very busy day planned for today. Why don't you go play with Slash or Raph? I bet he has nothing planned for today. That lazy bum." I responded. Mikey looked like he was thinking about something.
"Can I watch you meditate?"
"Sure why not Mikey. Just don't disturb me ok."
"OK!" Mikey's smile covered his entire face it seemed. Yeah he needs to always smile.
I walked in the direction of the meditation room with Mikey on my heels talking away about everything that happened on the way here. Mostly he saw a pretty flower and a squire or two. I reached the door of the mediation room. I turned on Mikey and looked him dead in the eyes.
"DO NOT DISTRACT ME MIKEY." I stressed saying each word while stretching out every syllable I could. Mikey stood where he was with his normal smile on his face. I was really warry of that smile right now.
"Ok Leo I will be good." Mikey said with a slightly different smile forming on his face. I don't know what the smile means but I don't like it. We walk in the room and I sit down on my mat and started to concentrate on the spirt world.
"Leo I like this sword." I heard Mikey say but I didn't budge.
"After this can you play swords with me. I am not good at them but it will still be fun right?" my meditation was more important. I stayed focused.
"My favorite animal is a cat. I have a pet cat named Klunk. I hate squires though. One has tried to eat me before." I didn't even blink at this. I wasn't going to come out of my meditation.
"Tiger Claw scares me. I don't want to be home at all. Daddy wants me to be friends with him. But I don't wanna. He hurt me before. He tried to hurt me yesterday right before I came over here but Leatherhead scared him away. When I was 5 Tiger Claw almost killed me. Spi... Slash and Leatherhead didn't tell Daddy because none of us wanted a war to break out. It took 1 year for me to be able to walk with the help of Leatherhead and Slash. After I could move better I asked daddy to teach me to fight. It took me a month to convince him to teach me. I have been fighting ever since. Always learning something new. I am really good at nun chucks. Raph said they were a weak person's weapon. Then I told him that Sais where for defense. It was funny. Leo if you can't hear me right now then I will tell you this all again tomorrow or you know the next time I can come over. Thanks for letting me be here." I could feel the tears coming. I held them back as I opened my eyes and caught the hand of the fleeting boy. I pulled him down and hugged him tightly.
"Mikey never be afraid to tell me something. I will always listen. I am so sorry that the person I have always thought was nice did something so heartless to you. Mikey if you ever need help I am right here." I felt the tears forming as I held a crying Mikey in my arms. Nothing and I do mean nothing will ever hurt this kid again. I cannot see how anyone could stand to hurt something so pure. Fuck I hate Chris right now. I rubbed small circles on Mikey's back until he stopped crying. Once he stopped crying I took him to the hill I took Donatello when he was upset, and we just talked about random things. When he left a few hours later with Leatherhead he looked happier. Good.

Donnie's POV
Next Day
I was in the gardens again today. Something was calming about them and I had a lot of different subjects to study out here. Raph is always getting on to me for saying that studying was fun. Leo halfheartedly agrees with him on that. But then again what they think is fun I hate. Like how Raph always wants to fight and Leo thinks the best thing in the world is meditation. I let out a giant groan and sat down on the soft grass.
"What's wrong Donnie?" I heard Mikey ask before I felt him laying on my back.
"Hey Mikey what's up? Why did you call me Donnie?" I asked looking over my shoulder at the kid.
"That's what Raphie called you in his sleep right before he woke up. I just thought it was a good nick name. I am doing nothing and I wanted to see you so I came to say hi." Mikey smiled at me.
"I am just looking around the garden. Do you want to help me find that bunny from the other day?" Mikey jumped off my back and twirled around looking. I couldn't hold back my laugh. I stared looking in the bushes.
"THERE!" Mikey screamed. He stared running in the direction of the giant tree in the middle of the gardens.
"Why there Mikey?" I asked. I looked at the ground looking for any signs of rabbits and found none.
"Here this is where they live. Bunnies house themselves in burrows holes it the ground normally around tree. And that right there is a bunny home." Mikey said matter of fact like while pointing at the whole right under the tree. I looked at the tree then the hole and repeated this action a few time.
"How do you know this Mikey?" I mean I was really smart and loved to learn but I haven't really studied animals much.
"I was following a bunny back when I was 8 right around the time daddy let me back out of the house and I saw it jump in a hole under a tree. I was confused so I went to Leatherhead and asked him what happened to it. He told me everything. Whenever I am confused about something I ask Leatherhead or Slash. I heard you were really smart too. How is working under a really cool doctor?"
"I like working under him. Dr. Rockwell saved me back when I was little. My parents threw me on a pile of rocks. That's the cause of the gap in between my teeth. Do you like to live with your family?"
"Yes! Daddy is awesome. He teaches me cool ninja moves and my sister is just the funniest ever! Daddy also gave me Leatherhead and Slash back when he was Spike. And and my momma was the sweetest person ever. I was really sad when she got sick and died. Daddy and sister cried for a while after that. Daddy cried a lot lot. And daddy saved me too. I was really little so I don't remember it. But Momma and Daddy told me the story before. Momma used to tell me stories before bed. That was back when I still slept with sister. Oh yeah her name is Karai. Daddy also said that when I get big then I can sit in his big chair. I have always loved daddy's big chair!"
"Really and what are you going to do in Shredder's big chair?"
"I am gunna help people. I will help the people that are hungry get food and help the ones that have no house find a place to live and I I will umm. I will... make sure that death is down… and keep all the evil people out. What are you going to do when you get to sit in your daddy's chair?"
"I will keep people alive and make sure people are healthy and lively. Kind of like you are now."
"Yep you're a good kid Donnie. I like you." Mikey smiled at me and hugged me tightly. Somehow in the middle of our talk we both ended up sitting in the grass.
"Mikey stop it. You're forcing the air out of me."
"No I'm not! I got to hug Donnie! I got to!" I reached out to shove him off when he gave out a loud mix of a scream and laugh.
"No Donnie you can't tickle me ok."
"But I want to." I attacked the little kid wrestling him down and tickling his sides. He was in a fit of laughter under me when Raph walked by.
"Don't kill him Don. He is seriously ticklish." Raph said as he walked away. I thought I faintly heard him laugh but I wasn't sure over the sound of Mikey's laugh I can't hear much.
Finally after a much needed giggle fest we both plopped on the ground gasping for breath this kid can seriously put up a fight.
"Mr. Bunny is out." Mikey said in between breaths.
"What?"
"There." I followed Mikey's finger to see a perfectly white bunny sitting next to the burrow just looking at Mikey and I. Mikey sat up and held out this hand.
"Come here bunny I wanna pet you." What is this kid doing? A rabbit isn't going to just come and…. Never mind. The rabbit just bounced over to Mikey and landed right in his hand. What is this kid? I walked over to Mikey and sat down next to him. I reached out to pet the bunny.
"Wow so soft."
"You never touched one before!?" Mikey asked shocked.
"No I have never really had the time. Always learning something new."
"You learned something new again today. Bunnies are soft and live in holes in the ground. Also that you are an awesome person."
Mikey and I just sat in the garden laughing and talking. I showed him a lot of cool stuff that had to do with different animals in the garden. He freaked out when we saw a squire. He even hid behind me until it left. I was kind of funny.
Eventually Leatherhead appeared out of nowhere and told Mikey that it was time to leave. After he gave me another tight hug he left with Leatherhead in tow. Man can't wait to see him again.

Raph's POV
Next Day
"Yeah man I can't wait to fight!" I said to Leo who was standing in front of Donnie and me.
"We call it sparing not fighting in the dojo. I am glad you are open to this. Donnie has sat in on some sparing between myself and Casey before. I cannot wait to experience your fighting style." Leo had on a mischievous smile on his face. Man I am gunna slap that smile off his ugly face. Donnie stood beside me with his head in his hand and shaking it gently. Casey stood behind Leo looking like a Donnie replica. Wow is something wrong with me fighting Leo? Whatever I will fight him anyways.
Leo led the four of us down a long hall. Sometimes I think that this place was built to confuse the enemy not have the royal family live in it. After what seemed like hours we finally reached a door at the very end of the hall way. We opened it to find another flipping hall way. I groaned loudly and rolled my eyes.
"Yeah I know a flipped maze right!" Casey said as he slapped his hand on my shoulder.
"Yeah dude how do you find your way around?" I asked looking at him confused as to how an air head like him can find his way around.
"I have grown up here just like Leo. Leo has lived here since he was 2."
"Don't tell someone else's story Casey it's considered rude." Donnie said as he appeared beside us.
"Come on Don. I wasn't gunna tell him everything just that the family found him and took him in." Casey said as he turned on Donnie. Dude I was not gunna let them fight now.
"Oh yeah that's harsh but it isn't anything close to what Mikey went through. The kid was thrown and I mean full force thrown at a house. An up in town one to boot. They are made out of brick. Shredder literally caught him." I said. Shit I said that out loud. Dame it all.
"How do you know what happened to him?" Leo said as he turned on me. He wore a deep glare. I really hope that wasn't meant for me because if so I'm so dead. Good thing I was taught a few things by the brat and his two body guards. Shit even Shredder taught me some things.
"I did live with him for a while. I learned a few things while I was there. His sister was really nice and so was the kid's body guards. I thought they would be pissed because Mikey fought the purple dragons by himself before Shredder stopped everything. I only heard stories about what happened. Why are you so pissed Leo? Did you think you knew everything about him just from a stupid fucking day? Come on dude. He doesn't trust you that much. I bet you anything he had a bet to see if he could get you to stop in the middle of meditation." I knew everything I was saying was a lie. That kid defiantly trusted all of us for some strange reason. Glad he aint here to hear me. Leo had shadows clouding his eyes as he lunged forward. Shit!
I evaded the quick move and lunged forward to attack his side before he could realize where I was. He recovered his bearings quicker than I thought and blocked my attack. He jumped to the side and aimed for my face. I could hear the contact it made with my skin. I felt it just seconds after. Shit that burns like a bitch. I placed my hand on my swelling cheek. I looked up to see a smirk on his face. I turned to fake him out and make him think I was leaving. He came after me and swung around to get right in front of me. As soon as he came around my side I swung around and slammed my fist on his nose. I heard a satisfying crack before I saw the blood oozing out of the messed up facial feature. I looked at my hand to find it stained in blood. Leo and I looked up at each other simultaneously. We both smiled and lunged forward before we both got his hard in the head with a hard but blunt object.
"Raphie! Leo! I cannot believe that I came to play with you guys just to find you both trying to kill each other! I hate both of you." Mikey yelled at me and Leo. Leo looked at the floor while I turned to look at anything other than a disappointed Mikey. I heard laughing in the background. I looked at the other side of the hall way to find both Donnie and Casey covering their mouths trying not to laugh any louder than possible.
"Raphie! How could you? You hurt Leo. Leo hasn't done anything to you personally. You both are soo stupid! How could you hurt your brother….'s friend. And your friends charge. Apologize right now!"
"Fuck that I will do no such thing!" I turn towards him and yell.
"RAPHIE!" Mikey yelled at me with tears in his baby blue eyes. Fuck!
"Sorry Leo." I said not even looking over at him. The laughter got louder. I looked over to see Casey and Donnie falling over on top of each other while they both held there sides.
"Whatever Raph." Leo said as he walked in the direction of a far off room. I follow after him with the laughing Casey and Donnie in tow. Mikey skipped after us seeming pleased with my halfhearted apology.
"What the hell Leo!" I asked as I stormed into the dojo training room like thing.
"Oh yeah this is so cool!" Mikey gushed as he looked around. Leo rolled his eyes at Mikey's reaction.
"Come on Raph I know that was a fake apology everyone knows it." Leo said loudly. Mikey looked over and smiled at the two of us.
"It must suck that you two grew up in such different worlds. If your parents would have gotten rid of Raph right after he was born then Leo and Raph would have always been together but then Raph wouldn't know anything about Donnie so Donnie would have always been so lonely. I am sorry that everyone grew up apart." Mikey said. Something was off with him when he said it though. His eyes were not the normal bright blue and it seemed like he had a giant shadow over him. It wasn't necessary a dark shadow but it defiantly wasn't a Mikey shadow.
"It's ok Raph and Mikey. Thanks for everything." Leo said though I wasn't convinced. He was worried about Mikey too. Mikey's eyes turned back to their normal bright blue as he looked back and forth between the two of us.
"Leo has to say sorry too! He hit Raphie first." Mikey said with a mad look staining his face. I almost wanted to laugh at the strange look on his face. He turned his bright blue eyes on Leo who caved on sight.
"I am so sorry Raph. I am sorry." Leo said looking at the blue eyes the entire time. I couldn't hold it back Donnie, Casey, and I were rolling in the floor laughing at Leo's reaction to Mikey's eyes. Mikey walks over to me and checks on me to see if I am ok. I grab his wrist and pull him down. I start to tickle his sides which Donnie quickly joined me in doing Mikey was in a fit of giggles and was gasping for breath by the time Leo joined in. we were all on top of Mikey tickling him when King Splinter walked in the room. A smile formed as he looked at the sight before him.
"My sons please stop this tomfoolery." King Splinter said as he waved a hand in our general direction. Donnie and Leo snapped up from the spot on the floor and left Mikey and I laying there. I stood slowly and Mikey looked up with a sad expression.
"But I was having fun Splinter. Why did you stop us?" Mikey asked.
"Leatherhead is here for you it seems like this time you left without letting him know anything. He is quite upset. Say good bye to everyone and go home for today Michelangelo you can return another day." King Splinter said as Mikey was pulled off the floor. Mikey headed towards the door.
"Bye guys. I will see everyone soon ok so no more fighting." Mikey exclaimed with a warm smile.

Mikey's POV
Same Day
I left the castle walls and saw a very angry looking Leatherhead waiting for me.
"Sorry Leatherhead. I was just so excited to see everyone. When I woke up this morning I got ready and almost skipped breakfast to come see everyone. Daddy also said that I had to talk to Tigerclaw today. I ran from that too. He tried to put poison in my food this morning. I don't know what to do anymore. I was gunna talk to Raphie, Donnie, and Leo about it but they were fighting and I didn't wanna trouble them." I said fast to my worried companion. His worry quickly turned into full on rage at the fact that Tigerclaw is trying to kill me again.
"You will never leave my side again." Leatherhead said matter of factly. We went back home only to find a pissed daddy.
"Tomorrow you will be with Tigerclaw all day. I want you Leatherhead to stay with Me." daddy commanded. I looked at Leatherhead in fear as I turned to look at daddy.
"Daddy please I will play with Tigerclaw all day tomorrow I promise but I wanna have Leatherhead with me too. He provides me with a protective aura. I feel safer. Tigerclaw scares me daddy." I begged. Daddy flipped.
"Do you think I would purposely cast you to a dangerous person? Son I am done with this all together you will only be with Tigerclaw. Since you deem it wise to disobey my orders and leave off with Leatherhead and have nothing to do with Tigerclaw along with letting one of my best warriors stay over in my mortal enemy's kingdom with the kid that you saved. You will obey me tomorrow. If I find one thing different from what I want then I will make it to where Leatherhead will never be around you again!" Daddy ordered. I felt all the color drain out of my face. I looked over at Leatherhead and looked back to daddy.
"Hai daddy I will listen. I apologize for my rude behavior from before." I said looking us at daddy. I could feel my heart hit my stomach. I was not going to survive tomorrow.

Next Day
I woke with a start. Leatherhead wasn't in my room like normal and I started to panic. Then I remembered that daddy took Leatherhead away from me today. I got up and dressed quickly.
"Master Michelangelo I have come to wake you for breakfast." I heard a deep voice sound for the other side of my door.
"Just a moment and I will be ready." I said. I knew it was Tigerclaw on the other side because just at the sound of his voice I had goosebumps and shivers. I finished dressing quickly and exited my room I followed Tigerclaw to the dining room. After I finished my breakfast Daddy asked me to go into town to pick up some clothing from the local tailor. And here I thought about not leaving the house today. I did as daddy said and left with Tigerclaw in tow.

Leatherhead's POV
I watched as the man followed my friend around. I could sense that he had a plan. After what seemed like hours he lead Michelangelo down an ally way. I shall kill this man. I stalked after him. Not long before I was approaching the enemy from behind when I felt a multitude of bodies force me down on the filthy streets. I looked up to see an army of people on top of me and the face of my most hated person glaring at me.
"I can't wait to see the pain in your eyes Leatherhead. This should be a very ecstatic day for me." Tigerclaw said with a smirk on his hideous face.
He stalked over to an unconscious Michelangelo and pulled him up by the back of his shirt. He threw him against the wall with a laugh. No this man was plaining of tormenting my friend in front of me. I struggled to throw off the mounted of people on top of me. They did not even budge at my assault. Tigerclaw pulled out a dagger and started to cut his clothing off and exposed many of his scars form his last deadly encounter with this evil fend. I struggled to get up again to no avail. Nothing seemed to move these men. Tigerclaw slashed at Michelangelo right over one of his old scars and smiled brightly at the blood forming at the wounded spot. I roared in rage and I bucked and struggled to ride myself of my restrictions. I looked up to see Tigerclaw with a hand full of my friends golden blond hair. He sliced it off while catching some of the flesh with it. Blood started to cover his face as his eyes fluttered. Please my friend do not wake stay asleep and do not suffer this never ending pain. Tigerclaw laughed as the blood covered his hands. He started to randomly slash at Michelangelo's body. I finally managed to throw off a few of my restrictions. I surged forward and almost got up before I was slammed back on the ground with a hard thump. Tigerclaw put his well-loved dagger back in its home. He continued his assault of the child by having one of his people held him up. He let loose of all self-control as he attacked Michelangelo's ribs. I could hear the breaking of some I heard the pop when he dislocated my friends jaw and both arms. The hard crack of Mikey's broken nose made me want to kill myself for not being able to do anything to save him.
"Ahh I feel better. Now I need to go back to Shredder and tell him that you kidnapped Mikey. And that all those years ago it was all you. I found a puddle of blood in an abandoned ally way when I was following after you to get back Mikey. I can't wait to see what happens. Take him to the cave and chain him up Mikey won't wake for a few hours so leave him until he does. Leave my sight!" Tigerclaw barked his orders. He reached down and rubbed the blood of my dear friend on my face. I tried to bit him but I ended up failing at that as I also did in saving my dear friend. I was drug away into the forest with the two men with Michelangelo right in front of us. He was facing my direction. So I could see it when his eyes twitched. I had to think of something quick.
"He is going to die soon." I said matter of factly. If I can get them to let us both go I can at least stall while the child runs to safety.
"No he aint." One of the men holding Michelangelo said shaking him roughly.
"His blood loss was too much on top of the many broken ribs. He has internal bleeding along with external. I will die in minutes if it doesn't stop. I am a doctor. If you let me go I can save him."
They considered my approach and eventually agreed with me. They stopped shortly after and released me and brought me my dear friend. I placed a hand on his head and checked him over a few times. He most defiantly had broken ribs along with dislocated shoulders. I popped them back into place and asked the man for an unused piece of cloth. I ended up with a shirt and I tied it around his head. Soon after he woke up and I covered him mouth to muffle the scream of agonizing pain that was creeping forward.

Mikey's POV
I woke up and the first thing I could think of was the pain that coursed through my body. I felt a large hand covering my mouth and wanted to fight until my world started to clear and I realized it was Leatherhead. I stopped any slight movement my body was making. He pulled me close.
"Run to a safe place other than home. As soon as…"
"Stop that have you stopped his death?" some dude yelled at Leatherhead. He looked at me and nodded.
"I have healed him as best I could." Leatherhead and I jumped up at the same time and I took off in the direction of Raph, Leo, and Donnie. I looked back to see Leatherhead fighting with the people that assisted in the capture and torcher of me and Leatherhead.
After what seemed like forever I finally made it to the castle. Just when I was about to knock on the large door I felt a large overwhelming force of darkness cloud me. Not long after I felt my body collide with something.

Casey's POV
"Come on dudes we have so got to go to this place. They have everything." I exclaimed while I tried to convince Raph, Donnie, and Leo to come hang out with me in town.
"If we go this once will you stop pestering us about it later?" Donnie asked with a hard roll of his light brown eyes.
"Yes." I stated. Everyone got up at once and walked towards the door. It wasn't long before we were about to open the front door when we saw King Splinter.
"Be safe children." King Splinter said with a slight wave of his hand. I reached to open the door. Once we opened it a body came falling in on us. Everyone was staring at the limp body that fell in my arms. I took notice to the golden color of his hair. No this can't be.
"Mikey?" I whispered. Leo snatched him out of my arms and looked at Donnie. Donnie turned to King Splinter.
"Do you have an empty room?" Donnie asked him quickly.
"I know of one." I chimed in.
"Michelangelo is welcome to any of them." King Splinter said as I ran off in the direction of the closest empty room to us. Leo placed him on the bed and Donnie got out everything he needed as they both went to work on stitching up some of the wounds Mikey had sustained. Raph and Leo were both emendating a killer aura the difference is that Leo can control it better. Who every did this to Mikey is gunna die.
