A/N: April and her father may seem OOC in this, just keep in mind she is 11 years old, that is preteen age and most preteen girls can be rebellious and throw an attitude. Even the sweetest ones can be rebellious, I know I was at that age and oh man did I have an attitude... but I am as sweet as punch now as an adult (unless you do something to make me mad).
Sitting at her desk April worked on her school work while listening to her father rant and rave to his colleague about the missing black rat. She wanted him found too but she was growing irritated at her father's attitude.
Giving a frustrated huff she scooted her chair back and slammed her hands down on the desk pushing her self up. Stalking over to her bedroom door she slammed it shut causing a picture to rattle on the wall near her.
"APRIL! STOP SLAMMING DOORS!"
She could hear her father but she didn't care, she was getting fed up with the entire situation, her father would not let her out of his sight accept for school; her only safe haven from listening to him bitch and moan about how Mr. Stockman let the black rat free. Or so he claims, she doesn't believe that but her father sure seems too.
Sitting back down she tried to concentrate again on her home work. After nearly 15 minutes went by her father stormed into her room.
"April? What is wrong with you? Why are you slamming doors?"
April turned around in her seat and said.
"Kinda hard to concentrate on home work when your yelling two doors down from my room. I am trying to do homework and all I hear is you yelling at Mr. Stockman. Dad I know you want to find that black rat, but why are you just yelling at people on the phone instead of going out and helping look?"
Kirby tried to control his anger and said to his daughter sharply.
"April that is enough, do not use that tone with me young lady!"
April got up and stood before her dad and said.
"Then why don't you look in the damn sewers? That is where he was last seen!"
"How would you know that?"
He stood there with his hands on his hips looking down at his daughter in frustration.
She let out a long sigh and said.
"Its word on the streets, if you would ever get out of the stupid Lab you would know that, every one has spotted him but no one has turned him in yet! Did you forget he tried to kill me? Or even the fact he is dangerous! He could kill another living soul!"
Kirby O'Neil let out a heavy sigh and said.
"April I know your intentions are noble, but I do not want you out on the streets right now with him loose."
"Are you even listening to me?"
Kirby frowned at his daughter and said to her sharply.
"Yes, I am but you have to understand the dangers..."
"Screw the danger dad! I will go find him my self! And I will bring him back to your precious Lab so you can experiment on him! Then maybe you will finally shut the hell up!"
With that said she bolted from the room leaving her dad in the wake of anger and hurt. He wasn't listening to her, she knew it. She was tired of being locked up like a prisoner in her own home, she was getting out of this place. Running outside she went to the grate where she had found Donnie years ago and slipped in through the muck and mud that was there from the other nights rain.
She had on only a thin sweatshirt with blue jeans on, it was much chillier in the sewers then it was topside. She rubbed her arms and said to her self.
"Its cold, I should have grabbed a jacket."
She had no clue as to where she was going, but she knew she had to keep walking and maybe she would find Donnie again.
Walking for what seemed like hours, slipping and sliding on the slippery, hard ground, she found that the smell only got worse the farther she went. She turned a corner and found it wasn't so bad here, in fact it was dryer then it was on the main part.
She came to a grate and looked up at the early afternoon over cast sky and sighed, she knew her dad would be worried but she didn't care. She was tired of being a prisoner, she wanted out. She noticed she was near midtown from where she was standing below the grate.
Walking on April got this feeling she was not alone, she kept looking back at the dimly lit tunnel but didn't see any one there. After about another ten minutes went by she could hear it, footsteps, directly behind her. Turning around she saw nothing at first, it was growing too dark in this part of the tunnel. But she smelled a musky scent, as well as blood, and something else she wasn't quite sure what.
Then she felt fear creep up in her when a shadow moved to her left and a soft growl came, almost like a warning. Then in a gravely voice she heard.
"Welcome back my sweet... so nice of you to come back..."
April froze, her heart beating fast, she felt her eyes grow wide as Scrag stepped into the dim lighting to show himself.
"You know my sweet that you should not come down here alone... there could be monsters... waiting in the shadows."
Stepping back as Scrag advanced on her she felt her back hit the wall of the cool sewer, she stepped to the side to run but a firm hand stopped her.
Scrag grabbed her when she started to run and he said.
"Not so fast little one I remember you, you and Donny-boy are good friends? Well lets just go see how good ol Donny-boy is doing after all of these years..."
Yanking her by the arm he half dragged her back to his hid out that was unfortunately not far from where they were currently at. She kicked and fought him once the shock wore off, she noticed that he was once in a while rubbing his shoulder like it was sore. She pulled back and he turned to her and said harshly.
"Do that again and I will kill you!"
She swallowed hard and followed along, still struggling. Once they got to a door he yanked it open and threw her inside.
"Now, you are going to be a good little girl, if you are I may just keep you around as a pet. If not then I will kill you."
He shut the door and picked her up and threw her into a room that how supported two baby gates standing on top of each other like a jail cell.
"You will enjoy your stay little girl, I will be back."
Since Leo had broken the door down, Scrag went topside and found two baby gates in the trash, intact; so he took them back with him and put them up as a door after screwing them into the same brackets the door had been in on the hinges. Making a crude but effective door, he had a lock on it to secure it so that the turtles would not get out.
The two gates created left about a two to three inch gap between the floor and the first gate, between the two was about an inch gap but not enough for any one to put their arm through to unlock them. Leo had already tried that once and it didn't work out so well for him.
April looked back and noticed Scrag was looking down at her, with a look in his eyes that she had remembered seeing there years ago.
She heard a small gasp and turned around fast, there in the corner of the room with knees drawn up to his chest, sat Donnie. He stood up and said to Scrag.
"What did you do? Why did you bring her here! Let us go!"
Scrag chuckled and said to him.
"Oh no my dear boy, you and her are going to play a game soon, and the three of us will have fun playing."
The feeling of dread filled Donatello's every being as he looked between Scrag and April, he was scared of what was going to happen.
"You leave her alone! She has nothing to do with this!"
Scrag walked closer to the make shift door and said.
"Oh yes she does Donny-boy... you allowed a human to meet you, get close to you, so now you get to pay that price my boy."
Donnie felt tears run down his face as he watched Scrag walk away, his brother laid behind him on the mattress bloody and beaten from before when they tried to escape. He made the sacrifice for them both when he fought Scrag again only this time getting beat to an unconscious, bloody pulp. And now his friend April was captured, he looked over at her and saw tears welling up looking at him.
"A-April? How did he find you? Where did he find you?"
April looked into his fear filled brown eyes and said.
"He found me when I ran away from home... I came down here looking for you... I got lost and... he, he found me."
She started to cry and put her face in her hands, her long red hair fell over her hands as she cried silently into them. Donnie walked over and held her close saying.
"It's OK April... we will figure something out. I will do my best to not let you get hurt."
April had missed him, thought about him for years, and here he is right in front of her. She thought of him fondly, not so much like a brother but as something else. But now was not the time to think about that.
He let her go and she looked around at her surroundings, she saw the other turtle on the bed; giving him a questioning look she asked.
"Who's that?"
Donnie looked be hind him at his older brother and then turned to April.
"That's my oldest brother, Leo, we got caught weeks ago by our former father Scrag."
She frowned and looked into his brown eyes and asked.
"What do you mean former?"
Donnie lead her away from the doorway and to the edge of the room, they sat down and he let out a long breath.
"OK, 10 years ago we came into contact with some green goo causing us to go from ordinary turtles and rats to mutants. The reason I said rats in plural form is because there were two mutated. Any way, we got separated from the gray rat and got found by the black rat, Scrag. I think the only reason he took us in was for his own sick, twisted, fun/entertainment. Well anyway over 3 years ago, Splinter, he's the gray rat, found out that the four of us were still alive. He found me tied down to a grate... um... any way he rescued me and set me aside while he charged our 'home' and rescued my brothers as well... but I some how slipped and fell into the water and well you know the rest of how you and I met. Well any way, Splinter took the four of us in after Scrag got captured by your father and taken to the Lab. But then recently he must have escaped and come looking for us. We were out taking a walk and accidentally wandered to our old 'home' where Scrag found us again. Mikey and Raph managed to get away... but, Leo and I... we lost the fight and got captured... I have know idea where we even are."
A soft moan got Donnie's attention and he looked over at Leo who struggled to sit up; rushing to his side Donnie helped him.
"Take it easy Leo..."
Leo moaned in pain and looked at his younger brother not noticing they were no longer alone.
"What happened?"
Donnie sighed sadly and said.
"If you do not remember, I am not reminding you. I was forced to watch... but Leo he caught April."
Leo's eyes went wide and he looked past his little brother at the red head in the corner.
"That girl you were telling me about? How? When? Why?"
Donnie turned to April then looked at his brother.
"In the sewers, not long ago, and for his own sick, twisted reasons... I am really scared Leo, we have to get out of here."
Leo smiled at his little brother and said.
"Did you think that I walked away from that fight with out something handy?"
He held in his clenched fist the knife Donnie had been holding, it was now folded up and being held tightly.
"You had it the whole time?"
"Shh... he will hear you. Yes. Now look when he goes to sleep we are making our move. He never moved the food that we started to store."
April walked over to them and asked.
"What's the plan? My dad is going to be worried sick."
She didn't feel as angry towards her father any more, but was now terrified at her new state. Donnie and Leo looked at her and Leo said.
"We have to get you out of here first, I don't want you hurt."
Before anything else could be said they could hear the lock flip. Donnie got in front of April to protect her as Scrag entered the room.
"So my pets, are we ready for some fun?"
Donnie looked up and then said firmly.
"D-do what you want with me, but DO NOT hurt April."
Scrag bent down and lifted Donnie by his shoulders and got in his face, Donnie could smell the sourness in the rat's breath as he spoke with venom in his voice.
"You are not in a position to be barking orders Donny-boy!"
With out saying another word he pined Donnie's arms between his uninjured arm and then lifted April to standing and half dragged her out of the room.
"Your next Leo."
He shut the gate and locked it before grabbing April again and leaving the area. Scrag went down the hall to his room and shut the door with his tail. He threw April down on the mattress and then dropped Donnie on the floor. Scrag took a near by chair and rammed it under the doorknob and turned to them.
"For good measures..."
April scooted back on the mattress while Donnie jumped up and tried to run for the blocked door only for Scrag to whip him with his tail on the arm. The painful sting was enough for Donnie to rethink his plan, but before he could do anything Scrag took a hold of him and dragged him over to the bed and threw him down.
He took off his dark robe he had on, it was painfully obvious that their fear had aroused him immensely. Though it was not the first time Donnie had seen Scrag's disgusting member, it was for April and she let out a shriek and scooted farther across the room and up against the wall.
Donnie tried to scoot away but Scrag put his foot on Donnie's leg stopping him.
"Oh no you don't, she's gonna watch... and learn how the game goes... then you are going to teach her to play."
Donnie felt pure fear creep up inside of him as he looked behind him at April, he gulped and then looked back to Scrag.
With a bold move he said firmly.
"Never. I will never hurt April."
Scrag put his hand around Donnie's bruised neck and said.
"Oh I think you will. And if you won't then I will kill you, then I will kill her and finally your brother."
Donnie felt his stomach drop, he knew this was really really bad... he knew he could never hurt April... he kept telling him self he never would... he tried to think of a plan before anything could happen to her.
Scrag noticed the hesitation and said.
"If you care about her, you will do it."
In saying he took his free hand and rubbed Donnie's tender tail, when he refused to drop Scrag told him.
"Don't think I don't remember how to make him appear Donny-boy."
Scrag then made Donnie lay further back on his shell causing his tail to touch the mattress, and like Scrag promised the drop happened, much to Donnie's humiliation. So far since being taken Scrag had only made him drop down once. But this was going to be an on going thing Donnie could feel it.
Donnie tried not to scream as Scrag entered him, he didn't want April to see him weak. He had to protect her, at any cost. After Scrag was done with him he said.
"Now it's your turn."
Donnie gulped and looked again at April, he shook his head lightly at her. Then turned to Scrag...
"If... if I have to do this... can I be alone with her?"
He knew that was a bold question to ask, but he hoped it would be allowed.
Scrag looked between the two then said as he got in Donnie's face.
"If I do not hear her scream, then I know your faking it! Is that understood!"
Donnie nodded and said.
"Yes."
Scrag stood and unlocked the door, standing out side he listened to what was going on.
Donnie crawled over to April and whispered quietly.
"Don't be scared, I am not going to do it. Listen to me OK. We are going to pretend that we are doing it OK? I promise I won't hurt you."
April whispered back.
"He said if I don't scream then he would know?"
Donnie nodded and said.
"I know... and my scent has to be on you. So here's what we are going to do..."
Scrag stood outside the door, he couldn't hear anything, raising his fist he pounded on the door and said sharply.
"I don't hear anything!"
Then he could hear moaning followed by screaming, he knew that was pretty quick but he figured maybe they were having a little too much fun and forgot to make noises. He could hear them calling each others names and this made him feel aroused again, he couldn't wait for his turn. After several moments it all stopped.
Donnie held April in his arms still fully dressed and tried not to chuckle, he told her softly.
"Really? My name? Come on that is spreading it kinda thick."
April shrugged and said.
"Had to make it believable didn't I?"
Donnie shook his head in disbelief and just whispered.
"Yes, I know. April I will get us outta here OK? Leo's not strong enough so I am gonna get us out of here as soon as we can. "
April smiled at her long lost friend and said to him.
"I trust you Donnie, and thank you. For keeping your promise."
He gently nuzzled her cheek and said.
"Your welcome."
Looking into her blue eyes he kept thinking of how much he just wanted this entire nightmare to end...
A/N: I did some editing to this chapter because I did not like how it had turned out the first time, and yes Scrag was dumb enough to believe that Donnie and April had sex even though they faked it. I will never have Donnie hurt April, especially in that manor.
