Summary: A short one-shot where I attempt to write out Raphael's darker emotions. This one has some crude language, but Raph insisted on it…
Disclaimer: I don't own Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Mirage does.
I was just walking down the street.
Stop Freak!
When my whole world collapsed.
I mean it you Monster! Stop!
And I obeyed. I stopped. I couldn't have moved if I wanted to.
You won't get away from me, you Ugly Freak!
I could hear the voice coming closer and closer. The tap of the footsteps as they came for me… And went right past me, moving further up the street. Damn.
All that, and for nothing. I was drenched in cold sweat for nothing. My pulse was racing and my knees were trembling and it was all for nothing. No matter how hard I try to bury my deep dark secret, it still comes out to bite me on the ass every time.
I hide it behind a mask of anger but deep down inside it's always the same.
Humans scare the living crap out of me.
I have dreams where they catch me. Where they lock me up in a laboratory and dissect me. Sometimes they dissect my brothers while I watch. Some nights these dreams just go on and on and I have to get up or I will go crazy. On those nights I walk the streets, surrounded by those that I fear the most.
Then crap like this happens and I nearly piss myself.
I'm such a coward.
