Prisoners
Leo's POV-
I couldn't believe that the Shredder had caught us. I was just showing Lolla, Rebecca, and Jessica around the tunnels. I wasn't expecting Shredder to sent his foot ninjas after us so soon after a battle and I really wasn't expecting him to send three dozen ninjas. I was overpowered so easily, but at least I could say that I tried. Question is did I try hard enough? I watched as they went after Lolla, who had just given Rebecca to Jessica and told her to run. Jessica took off down the tunnel and turned the corner and out of my sight. I watched as Lolla tried to keep as many ninjas away from Jessica as she possibly could, but she too was soon knocked down. The ninjas ran around the corner and several minutes later returned with only Jessica. She was bleeding very badly and she looked as though she may not make it without proper medical attention.
I switched my gaze from my prison cell doors to Jessica, who was in the cell across from Lolla, who was right next to me. She was still unconcious and she was shivering. That was a sign that she had lost a lot of blood and was starting to freeze. I then looked over at Lolla to see her eyes water as she looked over at Jessica.
"Lolla?" She looked over at me and blinked. She choked as she said.
"Ya, Leo?"
"Are you alright?" I already knew the answer but I felt as though I had to ask.
"Besides the fact that my best friend is in the cell across from me and probably bleeding to death and my daughter is somewhere that only my best friend knows, I'm fine." I sensed a bit of annoyance in her voice. I sighed after she gave me her answer.
"I'm sorry. I...I...I don't know." I looked away from her and we both stayed silent for the rest of the time.
Mike's POV-
I've been trying to cheer up Baby Becca for the past hour, but she's been crying about her mother and big sis. I''ve tried several different methods to make her happy or at least to help her stop crying.
"Becca? You need a snack or something? I still have some cake from lunch."
"No tanks." She said without any emotion in her voice at all. I just sighed and got up. Becca stood up with me and followed me all around the lair. If I stopped, she stopped. When I reached the couch, she sat down and pulled herknees to her chest. I sat beside her and pulled her close. She shivered in my arms and slowly fell asleep.
"Yo, Mike." Raph called.
"Ya, Raph?"
"The kid asleep yet? We need you to join in on the plan to get the others back."
"Alright, gimme a minute." I slowly pushed Becca away from me and lowered her down so that she lay on her side. I covered her up with a small blanket. I laughed when I saw her sucking on her thumb. I quickly ran into the kitchen to join everyone else and to help create a plan to rescue our friends and family.
Lolla's POV-
I am shaking all over from fear and great worry. I know I'm going to get sick if I don't relax, but I just couldn't help it. I looked back over at my best friend in the cell across from me and my worry just grew. She had lost a lot of blood and I doubted that she'd live much longer. I prayed that she would live because I don't know what any of us, especailly Rebecca my baby, would do if she did...move on. I can't even think of that horrible word, it's just too much to worry about right now.
I wish I knew what the others were doing right now. I know that the girls are probably worried sick. Raven is most likely looking for something to hit, Danielle is probably trying to come up with something to save me, and Maria is probably just trying to make everyone laugh just to lift the horrible atmosphere.
I don't have the slightest clue what the guys are doing because, I mean, I haven't been there long. Leo did say that they study the art of ninja or something and that they all had their own weapons. I wonder if any of them have ever been captured by these strange people before. Well by the way that Leo was fighting them and seemed to know what he was doing, I'd have to say that they've met before.
"Leo?"
"Yes, Lolla?"
"Where are we?"
"We're in the Shredder's house."
"Who?"
"The Shredder. He's the guy that those ninjas work for. He's evil and tries to get rid of us all the time."
"All the time?"
"Ya. We've been winning so far though."
Authors POV-
Leo and Lolla sat in their cells, side by side only the bars seperating them. Jessica lay in the cell across from Lolla, shivering and barely breathing. All was silent except for some sounds of small movement outside of the cell room doors. Finally one of the doors opened and a man in a metal suit that looked as though it had just come from a city dump.
"Well it looks as though we've caught the leader of that annoying turtle clan and his girlfriend." He looked over at Lolla who just stared at him in awe, confusion, and fear. "It seems that she does not know who I am. Maybe I should introduce myself." Some of the ninjas laughed a little as he opened her cell door. "Hello my dear, I am the Shredder." Lolla's heart stopped and her eyes grew wide as he mentioned his name. "It appears she already knows not to take me lightly."
"Or it could just be your face that she's afraid of, Shredder." Leo spoke up from the other cell. Shredder turned his attention to Leo now and exited Lolla's cell.
"I always thought it was the turtle with the orange bandana that made the jokes." He looked into the cell that contained Jessica and looked back at the two turtles. "I don't see why we keep her if she's just going to die. You" he pointed to two of the closer ninjas "take her out and put her out of her misery." The ninjas just nodded their heads and dragged Jessica out of her cell and out of the room. Lolla's worry grew as she watched her friend that she had known since her mutation, disappear out of the room.
"She a friend of yours?" Lolla looked up to see the giant cheese grader staring at her. She gulped and said nothing. Fear was rising quickly inside of her and she worried that she would through-up if she said anything. "Don't worry you'll be with her soon." He laughed as he walked off and out of the room.
"You alright?" Leo asked. Lolla just turned to look at him without relizing a tear falling down her cheek. Leo stretched his arm through one of the bars and wiped it away gently. "Don't worry. My brother's will be here. We'll get out and you can see Rebecca."
Lolla just shut her eyes tight and several more tears danced down her cheeks. Leo patted her on her back becuase the bars were too close together to even fit past his mid upper arm through. They sat in silence for the rest of the time and Lolla soon fell asleep with her head next to the bars, as close to Leo as possible.
Short but oh well.
