Chapter Twenty-Nine

Medical Battle

Donatello stood in a small room with Mona as she lay on a trolley bed, she was strapped down and fast asleep, she no longer had the wires in her or her gas mask, but the gas that had been keeping her asleep was still strong.

Also in the room with him were several ninja dressed in medical suits, including a couple of nurses with masks over their mouths.

"It's such a joy to see the birth of a new life," one of the nurses commented "even if the child is a mutant."

Donatello's eyes stung with fresh tears as he looked at the sleeping Mona, he wondered if she would wake up, and if she did, would she start screaming and struggling realizing where she was.

Donatello stroked his adopted sister's cheek gently, yet she didn't wake up, his action caused a laugh from the medic ninjas and the nurses.

"How sweet." one said mockingly "You truly care for her."

"She's my sister!" growled Donatello "And if I had my free will, I'd deck you down right now!"

One of the ninja instantly held up the detonator for the collar.

"Uh uh uh!" he said wagging his finger "One move to attack, and you'll be spasming on the floor!"

Donatello swallowed hard and looked down at his collar; he knew he couldn't take on any of the ninja with that thing around his neck.

He didn't have any time to think before another ninja medic came into the room and informed him and the other ninja that the time had come to wheel Mona into the operating theatre where Dr Arden was waiting along with Arashi and the other prisoners.

"Come along now turtle..." smirked the ninja "Your time has come to show your real medical skills."

Donatello gulped but he nodded sadly and walked with the other medics to the operating theatre.

He walked down a huge corridor until they came close to where the operating theatre was. As he walked, his stomach churned and his heart beat faster, looking down at Mona, he chewed his lip.

Finally they made it to the operating theatre where Donatello saw Arashi sitting on a chair in the far side of the room with the turtles, April, Casey and Splinter strapped down to chairs and gagged.

Raphael's eyes widened as he saw Mona and tried to struggle in his seat, but the straps held him down fast.

Tears streamed from Donatello's eyes again as he stood next to Mona's table and looked up at Dr Arden who smirked.

"The patient has finally arrived for the operation." He said "I hope I haven't kept you waiting Arashi."

"You have not, my good Doctor." Arashi smiled "As we all know, good things come to those who wait."

He smirked at Raphael who continued to struggle in his chair, all the other turtles did the same, Splinter glared hard, as if looks could kill, Arashi would be dead.

Leonardo looked at Donatello who looked away from him in sadness, making the blue masked turtle bow his own head with tears falling from his eyes.

Arashi relaxed back in his chair and looked at the turtles, Splinter, April and Casey as they looked terrified at Mona and Donatello.

"I'm going to enjoy this." He smiled; he then looked at Dr Arden "Whenever you are ready doctor."

"Thank you Lord Arashi." Dr Arden replied, he looked over to Donatello and narrowed his eyes as he placed his own surgical mask over his face.

Donatello wasn't sure, but the look of Dr Arden with his mask on and the sight of his half acid burnt face made him feel more nervous and scared than before.

The nurses walked over with a small incubator to put the baby in once it was removed, and Dr Arden began to place drips into Mona's arms.

Reluctantly Donatello placed a tube into Mona's mouth so she could breath, his heart was beating so hard it hurt.

"Now we are ready and the patient is safely hooked up." Dr Arden announced "We can begin."

He looked over to Donatello.

"Now Donatello." He said in a menacing tone "You will perform the procedures needed before we remove the child."

Donatello's shoulders shook, he looked over to his friends, sensei and brothers. Raphael was struggling more and yelling through his muzzle, Michelangelo, Leonardo and April were watching with tears rolling from their eyes and Splinter and Casey were trying to shout through their own gags.

"Don't hesitate, Donatello!" Dr Arden growled "Or the collar will be activated!" he pulled out the detonator to prove it and placed his finger over the button threatening to push it.

Donatello glared and placed his hands on Mona's stomach trying to feel the position of the baby.

As he did, he looked over to the table next to Mona's trolley bed and back at Dr Arden.

"The baby is in the right position doctor." He said.

Dr Arden smirked behind his mask.

"Then we can remove the child." He said, he looked back at the turtles, April, Casey and Splinter and saw their horrified looks. It gave him great pleasure watching them witness the whole thing but helpless to stop it.

Dr Arden then nodded at Donatello who produced a scalpel to place on Mona's abdomen.

"NNNNNOOOOO!" Raphael screamed in a muffled way through his muzzle.

Slowly Donatello placed the sharp knife on Mona's stomach, but he stopped for a second.

"Do it!" Dr Arden growled "Do it..."

After a few seconds, Donatello lifted the scalpel and turned to Dr Arden, then before the doctor had a chance to move, Donatello swung the scalpel and stabbed the doctor in the neck!

"Doctor!" the nurses cried in horror as the doctor fell grabbing his bleeding neck, Arashi also stood up and began shouting orders, Donatello then grabbed the key from the doctor's neck and the detonator he had dropped as he had grabbed his neck.

The other turtles, Splinter, April and Casey watched in disbelief not believing what they were seeing as Donatello fought the other medical ninja and the nurses before quickly removing the collar from his neck.

"What are you doing!?" Arashi roared as he jumped off his seat and produced his swords.

"Stopping you, and your freak doctor from hurting my sister!" Donatello growled as he prepared to fight.

Arashi aimed for Donatello, but the brainy turtle executed a side flip and landed near Leonardo. Quick as a flash Donatello used the bloody scalpel to cut his cords.

"Leo! Help the others!" he shouted.

Leonardo agreed and instantly went to untie everyone else; he also grabbed their weapons that Arashi had next to his chair as trophies.

"Come on brothers!" he said in a low voice unsheathing his katana.

Raphael as soon as he was released let out a throaty growl and he dived towards Arashi and began to attack him.

"You bastard!" he roared, he jumped on the evil man and began to stab him over and over with his sai.

Arashi was helpless as the sharp sai stabbed him all over. Meanwhile, Leonardo, Michelangelo and Splinter fought the medical ninja and nurses as they fought with their hidden weapons.

Meanwhile April and Casey got to Mona and tried desperately to get the drips out and remove the tube from her mouth without hurting her.

"Almost got it!" cried April "Can you carry here Casey?"

Casey nodded, but suddenly as he lifted Mona off the table, Dr Arden suddenly appeared by hopping onto the trolley bed.

"Where do you think you're going with that!" he snarled showing his syringe fingers "That belongs to me!"

April and Casey stood frozen on the spot as they saw Dr Arden's bloodied up neck but it was completely healed.

Dr Arden smirked and held up his syringes to attack them but Donatello appeared out of nowhere dropping the collar and tackled him.

"Leave them alone you ugly freak!" he shouted.

Dr Arden snarled and fought back.

"I'll make you suffer greatly for your disobedience!" he shouted.

"I serve no enemy!" Donatello shouted as he swiped his bo staff at the doctor "You monster!"

April meanwhile grabbed the collar as an idea came into her head.

"Casey!" she screamed "Find a way out! Protect Mona!"

"I'm not leaving! Not without you or the others!" Casey shouted.

"Go!" cried April "You have to protect Mona and the baby!"

Casey reluctantly agreed and raced away from the fight, April meanwhile turned to the fighting Donatello and Dr Arden.

Donatello swung his bo staff at Dr Arden, but the evil doctor was too slick and before Donatello could execute another move, Dr Arden shoved his hand into Donatello's side thus injecting him with a syringe finger.

"DONNY!" April screamed.

"DON! NO!" screamed Michelangelo. The others were also horrified at the scene but they couldn't get close to Donatello.

"My son!" cried Splinter.

Donatello stared at Dr Arden in shock before falling to the ground unable to move.

"HA!" Dr Arden cried triumphantly "Head on a stick!"

He then sat on Donatello's stomach and grabbed his neck before pointing his syringes in the turtles face.

"I'll teach you to disobey me!" he growled.

April instantly saw red and ran up behind Dr Arden.

"Leave him alone!" she screamed, she then placed the collar around his neck before locking it.

"Time for a taste of your own medicine doc!" she snarled before pressing the button on the detonator and instantly Dr Arden was injected with his own syringes causing him to spasm and scream in agony.

"GUYS!" Casey screamed as he opened a door with Mona in his arms "We got to get out of here!"

The other turtles, Splinter and April looked up and instantly followed, although Raphael was still blind with rage and still continued to stab Arashi over and over.

"Raph!" Leonardo shouted as he and Michelangelo picked up the paralysed Donatello "Come on! We got to get out of here!"

Raphael looked down at the bloodied up Arashi and stabbed him one last time in the shoulder before jumping up and racing after his brothers.

"Kill and maim anyone who tried to stop us!" Leonardo shouted as they left the operating theatre.

YAY! The turtles have gotten out! And Arashi and Dr Arden have gotten what they deserve!

But will Mona, the baby and Donatello be ok?
