I didn't mention this in Big brothers, Big Bullies but Dominic, Derek, and Dallas's last name is Ericson. Also some swearing and abuse in this.
(Miwa: 18
Leo and Raph: 15
Donnie: 14
Mikey: 6
Set a month after Big Brothers)
All five of the Hamato kids where out in the park. Miwa was reading, the twins where playing foot ball with Donnie and Mikey. Soon three boys walked over to them. The four Hamato's recognized them.
"Uhh hey. We know you don't like us and all but we just came to say sorry for last month." The 17 year old boy, Dallas, said.
"Yeah sorry about the whole locker thing, Mikey." The youngest at 8 years, Dominic, apologized to Mikey.
"And you mean it? This isn't part of a prank?" Raph asked.
"What? No. We promise." The last one, Derek, who was the same age as the two twins said. Donnie stared at Dallas and how his eyes where covered by a baseball hat. Raph and Leo stared at Derek's face. Derek had his face covered with a scarf even though it was summer. Mikey looked at Dominic and like Dallas, he had a ht on covering his forehead. All the Hamato's brothers looked at each other.
"So no hard feelings?" Dallas asked holding his hand out. Leo took the hand and shook it. Derek smiled and Leo smiled back.
"Well we have to go. See ya around." Dallas said before they waved then left.
"Did that just happen or am I dreaming?" Raph asked.
Dominic, Derek, and Dominic walked into their house. The three took off their hats and scarfs to reveal Derek's split lip, and the bruises on Dallas' eye and the side of Dominc's head.
"Did you apologize?" Their mom asked angrily. They all nodded really fast. "Good now go up stares and help your brother pack for his dumb college."
They all ran up stairs and into their older brothers room. He already graduated and was going to college early.
"Hey Danny need help?" Dallas asked as the three walked in.
"Hey guys. Did you apologize?" Danny said.
"Yes we did and mom told us to hep you." Derek explained.
"Good and the bruises?"
"Healing but they still hurt lot." Dominic said as he started helping pack up Danny's cloths.
Danny sighed. "Ok I know dad's punishment was harsh and so was mom's. You didn't deserve punishments that harsh but you still shouldn't have done what you did."
"We know Danny." Derek said.
"Danny, why mom and dad do that?" Dominic asked. Danny remembered what his parents did.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU!" The three Ericson's father yelled.
"We're sorry dad." Dallas said. The loud sound of Dallas getting punch in the eye. He fell over and Derek and Dominic tried helping him up. The father pushed them away.
"DON'T GIVE ME THAT SHIT DALLAS!" His father yelled.
"Dad stop."Derek said. The father hit Derek in the lip. Dominic gasped and stared getting scared. His father looked at him. He grabbed the back of Dominic's shirt and threw him in the closet. The side of his head hit the wall of the small closet.
"THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR THROWING THAT BOY IN THE LOCKER!" The father screamed at Dominic as he slammed the door shut. Dominic heard yelling at another door slamming. The door opened a little later. Dominic saw it was his brother Dallas. Dallas lead Dominic to the couch. Derek was there and handed Dallas an ice pack. Derek had one too. Their mother looked at the three angrey
"Dominic you ok?" Dallas asked. Dom nodded and rubbed the spot where his head hit the wall.
"WHAT WHERE YOU THREE THINKING?! YOU CAN GO TO JAIL FOR WHAT YOU DID! MAYBE I NEED TO SEND YOU ALL TO JUVY!" Their mother yelled. She ranted and yelled for a good 20 minutes. Then she sent them to their rooms.
"I don't know, Dom." Danny said. Their father and mother had been going out to bars a lot lately and when they where home, their father would hurt them for not doing what they where told to do. Even though they didn't know they had to do them. As for their mother, she didn't physically hurt them but she insulted them a lot. Danny was lucky, he would be getting away from it all in a few days while Dominic had almost 10 years with their parents. Danny hated leaving his brothers but he needed to go to college. He just hoped his parents abuse was just temporary.
The next day, Danny took his little brothers to the park. They played catch and baseball. The four hadn't even noticed Leo and Raph just watching them play from the trees.
"Why do you think their faces jacked up?" Raph asked.
"I don't know but their arms are bruised too." Leo said.
"Yeah, that's odd. Who's that your with?" Raph questioned.
"I don't know..." Leo shrugged.
"Wait... their leaving."
"Your right. Derek dropped his phone."
"Let's go give it back to him." Raph said as the two jumped down from the tree and picked up the phone.
"He's already gone... We'll call Dallas later. For now let's just go home." Leo told his brother. Raph nodded and the two ran home.
When the twins got home, they saw Donnie on the computer and Mikey watching his older brother on the laptop. "Hey guys, how was the park?" Donnie asked.
"Good, I guess. We saw Dallas, Derek, and Dominic. They where with some guy who looked older than Dallas." Raph explained.
"Was it Danny?" Miwa asked. The twins didn't even realize she was there.
"Who's that?" Donnie questioned.
"The oldest Ericson." Miwa said. Leo and Raph still stared at her with blank looks. "He was in my graduating class."
"Was he that one boy who never talked to anyone?" Donnie asked.
"Yes." Miwa told them.
"Well, yeah that was him. But the weird thing is all their faces and arms where bruised." Leo explained.
"We also found Derek's phone. He dropped it." Raph said holding up the phone.
"Here, can I see it?" Donnie asked giving the computer to Mikey. Mikey took it and bset it to the side. Donnie looked through the text messages and saw the conversation between Danny and Derek.
"Guys look at this." Donnie said pointing at the screen. Leo and Raph looked at the conversation.
Derek: Hurry up! Dad's doing it again.
Danny: Why's he mad this time?
Derek: he got mad at Dallas because he 'forgot' to do the dishes... he just kicked Dallas in the shins...
Danny: On my way, he hurt you or Dominic?
Derek: No but hurry! He's really getting mad!
"Guys do you know what this means?" Donnie asked.
"Nope." Mike replied.
"I think they're being abused." Donnie explained.
"You know that explains a lot." Miwa said.
"Explains they're jerks." Raph mumbled.
"You think they're going to tell someone?" Mikey asked.
"I don't think they will. Maybe we should talk to them." Leo stated.
"I'll talk to Danny tomorrow." Miwa told her brothers. Donnie handed her the phone and she copied Danny's number onto her phone. She texted him to meet her in the park tomorrow to pick up the phone.
The next day Danny meet Miwa, as said. By the time Danny got there, Miwa was sitting at a picnic table. Danny walked over to where the oldest Hamato sat.
"Hey Miwa." Danny said as he came up to Miwa.
"Hi Danny, here's your brothers cellphone." Miwa said, handing Danny the phone.
"Thanks, well I'll be going now. Bye." He told her before trying to leave.
"Wait! I would like to talk to you about something." She explained to Danny.
"Ok? About what?" Danny asked.
"Well, my brothers where looking on Derek's phone and we know you guys are being abused."
"Shot! Don't tell anyone! Please." Danny begged.
Miwa sighed. "I won't but we think you should tell someone."
"I-I... I just can't."
"Why not?"
"If my parents find out I told someone, they could hurt me and my brothers more and even cancell my college fund." Dan explained.
"But if you do tell someone, your brothers will get hurt more."
"I guess your right... I have to go now. Bye." Danny said before walking away.
Danny brought the phone back to his home. His mom and dad where yelling and fighting with each other. Danny ran up to Derek's room. All of his younger brothers on Derek's bed while Derek had Kleenex in his nose.
"Geez, what happened this time?" Danny asked shutting the door as he walked in.
"They found out Derek lost his phone and flipped, dad punched him in the nose." Dallas explained to his older brother.
"Here Derek, lean your head back." Danny said while handing Derek his phone.
"Thanks." Derek mumbled, doing as Danny told him to. Danny pulled his own phone out and dialed a number. He didn't click the called button though.
"Danny? What are you doing?" Dominic asked.
Danny sighed. "The Hamato's know about our parents... they said we should tell someone."
"Maybe we should." Dallas said.
"Alright if we all agree to tell someone, we will." Danny stated.
"I vote we should." Dallas voted.
"I agreed with Dallas." Dominic said.
"Me too." Derek told his brothers, of course with Kleenex up his nose he sounded weird.
"Alright, I'm calling someone." Danny said.
It was a week after Miwa had talked to Danny and still no word from any of the Ericsson's. The five Hamato children just decided to go to the park the next day. The five had been at the park for a while before they had been met with the four Ericsons. "Hey guys! You'll never guess what happened?!" Derek said excitedly.
"Hi, what's up?" Raph asked.
"We got adopted!" Dominic almost shouted.
"Wait? What?" Donnie asked.
"What my brothers are trying to say is after Miwa talked to me, we all agreed to tell someone about our parents." Danny explained.
"Glad to know someone listens to me." Miwa said.
"Then these people came, our parents were arrested, and we were put in foster care." Dallas reported.
"And this couple came and adopted us along with two other girls. Well, all but Danny. He's 18 so he doesn't need legal guardian." Derek told them.
"Good, are you guys still going to our school?" Donnie asked.
"No, we'll be moving to Maine, right near Danny's college. In fact, our new dad is even a teacher there." Dominc said.
"Cool!" Mikey said to Dominic.
"Yeah so we just came to say thanks, for the help." Derek said.
"You're welcome." Leo replied.
"So I guess we'll see you next time we visit New York." Danny stated.
"Yeah I guess we'll see you around." Miwa smiled to the Ericson's.
"See ya 'round." Danny said before the four Ericson's walked away.
