No POV

The brothers screamed.

Michelangelo didn't move.

Donatello ran forward and gripped the statue.

Karai stood frozen as if she was one of the two enclosed in ice.

Nothing.

A car accident is heard echoing through the night.

Raphael and Leonardo stay away from their younger brothers.

Fear was in their eyes.

Donatello sobbed on the statue of his younger brother.

Nothing.

"MIKEY! PLEASE! NO...God no...NO!"

"Mikey...?"

"What da shell did Donnie do?"

"Oh god..."

Not a sound.

Someone screams.

A car honks.

Donatello grips Michelangelo's frozen face.

Two hawks fly horrified to the side of the roof.

A gasp.

Donatello looks into the eyes of the defrosting boy.

Raphael cries.

Leonardo falls to his knees, thanking the lord.

Karai laughs at the cheesiness of it all but cries all the while.

Mikey's eyes open.

Mikey shivers but smiles.

Donnie smiles right back.

Raph smiles and grabs the two, no longer afraid.

Leo grabs Karai and joins the hug.

A humanoid rat and two humans run onto the roof and let out gasps of relief.

The father engulfs his sons in a hug.

April slides between Donnie and Raph to hug them both.

Casey smiles on the sidelines before Raph pulls him in.

The two birds land on their masters shoulder and head.

The snow stops.

The ice and snow slowly melt away.

The moon shines.

People come out of their homes to look up to the sky, faces shining in awe.

The ice covering Donnie retracts into his skin.

The family pulls away and looks at each other smiling.

Donnie collapses.

Donnie's POV

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

"Your awake! Thank god! GUYS! GET IN HERE! DONNIE'S AWAKE!" April's face appears in my line of vision, her beautiful blue eyes shine with happiness, concern, and tears. She smiles at me and whispers; "Hey...". I smile back and open my mouth to respond when the door swings open and my family rushes in. Arigata and Talon fly over and land on the bedposts.

"D! You're back!" Mikey runs over and jumps onto my plasteron, hugging me tight.

"C-can't ..breathe!" I gasp out. I can hear my elder brothers laughing in the background. Traitors.

"SORRY! GAH SORRY!" He chants 'sorry' repeatedly while still sitting in my lap.

"Get off!"

"SORRY"

"That's better" I laugh lightly. "So...uh...now what?"

"You rest my son, we will speak more in the morning." Master Splinter answers my question from his positon on the left side of my bed.

"But he just woke up!" Mikey looks up to Master Splinter with teary eyes.

"Yeah! Wha should we wait?" Raph joins in the argument.

"He may have just awoken. but your brother needs more rest. Now come my sons, Casey, April, let us leave Donatello to his rest."

"Yeah! Listen to Sensei! Now come on! Karai is waiting out in the living room!"

"I'll meet you guys in a minute, I..uh.. gotta say something to Donnie first." I look at April curiously as she speaks. What does she need to say?

"April?"

"Uh...Well...Donnie, I guess I just...I...I...I wanted to...I wanted to say that...that...well, I return your feelings! Okay?! I love you!" She turns her head away from me as she continues. "I love you...

I think I've loved you this whole time..." I smile widely at her as she looks back towards me. "I love you too April O'Neil. I love you with all my turtle heart."

She smiles at me and leans forward. Her lips brush mine and after a moments hesitation our lips come together in a soft and loving kiss. After the need for air becomes prominent we separate. We look into each others eyes and we both smile, not noticing my family watching from the doorway or the jealous look on Casey's face.

"Aww you two are cute!"

"ARIGATA!"

Boom! It's over! I hope you guys like it! I am going to post it as finished but if there is a big enough demand I will write and epilogue. Possibly a small sequel of one-shots to come but maybe not.

I would like to thank all of you who have stayed by me for this story, I know it wasn't easy! Thank you! To all of you my dear friends I thank whoever will listen for you're continued support, you have no idea how much it means to me! :')

Now please review and I hope to hear what you think soon!

Now for possibly the last time,

Goodbye!
